“Veronica, thank you so much for caring for our two kitties. They were well taken care of while we were away and we had zero concerns about them while we were gone.”

“Andrea is the best! She is so caring and attentive when she looks after our two cats, and they are always so content with her. Couldn’t recommend someone more highly!”

About: Hi, I’m Casey—a trustworthy, full-service house and pet sitter with experience caring for just about every kind of animal you can think of. From playful pups of all breeds and sizes to cats, chickens, bunnies, and more—I’ve got you covered. I’m comfortable administering medication when needed, keeping routines consistent, and making sure your pet feels safe, loved, and thoroughly spoiled (in the best way). What sets me apart? I bring a fun, caring energy into every home I step into. I’ll play when they want to play, snuggle when they want to snuggle, and give them space when they need it. I adapt to each animal’s unique personality, and I genuinely enjoy bonding with them. I also offer full-service house sitting: plant watering, mail collection, trash/recycling, light gardening—you name it. I treat your home with the same care and respect I give your pets. Whether you’re gone for a weekend or a few weeks, I’ll make sure everything is just how you left it—and your pets are happy, healthy, and loved. Let’s chat! I work full time: Monday-Friday. I’m at work from 8:30-5pm. Your pet will need to be able to be left at home for extended periods until i’m off work. Once I’m off, I can spend time with your pet all night and morning for walks and attention! Whether I’m feeding, walking or playing, I follow your instructions closely to make sure your pet feels comfortable and secure. I spend quality time with them so they’re not just cared for—they feel loved and relaxed in your absence.

“Angelina was prompt with her responses, understood our situation, and communicated clearly about our pet's requirements. Looking forward to many more sits with her!”

“Amanda is amazing as usual. This is our 7th or 8th time booking with her. She is always quick to respond to our requests, flexible and pays wonderful attention to our two cats. She plays with them, understands their personality differences, and she provides a detailed report each time of their behaviors and whether they are eating/drinking. She always sends multiple photos, too. Thank you Amanda! You’re a true gem.”

About: I have loved animals like family as long as I can remember. And feel I have a special connection with them and them with me because of my calm and centered energy. Animals communicate and respond through peoples energy and I feel its how they know to feel safe. I care for dogs, cats, bunnies, birds, lizards etc. And am happy to answer any questions on all. I work for myself so I have a flexible schedule and can usually accommodate most schedule needs of pet parents. I typically make morning and evening rounds and unless I am out of town I am available 7 days a week. I take pride in my attention to detail and upon first introduction I try and get as much information as possible about a clients home and needs pertaining to their pets and what they are used to so that I can do my best to maintain that schedule and activity.

“Great communication and last minute help. Leif loved his time with Al! Thank you!”

About: Since I was a child I have taken care of the family dog. They are like family to me. I have worked at a dog spa since May of 2025 so that I have experience on handling dogs. I can bathe your dogs and brush them but not groom them. I love animals like family. I also take care of my sister’s golden retriever when she’s away on trips. I work Tuesdays-Saturdays from 10am-6:15pm so on my work days I can house sit your pets, take them for walks and take care of them after work and my days off I’m available anytime. I have a cat at home who is spoiled. Every day she gets groomed, loved and cuddled with. She couldn’t be more happier. I even have a filtered water fountain for my car to drink out of I clean every two weeks. I enjoy cleaning her food bowl every morning and give her dental treats to make her gums and teeth healthy. When it comes to clients pets I’d do the same as if they were my own pet very loved and spoiled. When I had my family dog she was very loved and spoiled as well. Every day do walk her, brush her, feed her and cuddle with her making the happiest dog she can be. All animals I treat equally.

About: Hi I’m Kaitlin! I graduated from SSU as a biology major and I have my exotic animal and wildlife rehab certificates. I currently work at Township Animal Hospital as a Vet Assistant and have experience with animal handling and giving medications. I have been surrounded by cats and dogs my whole life and currently have a German shepherd and 3 cats that are my babies. I would love to take care of your animals any way that I can and give them all the love that they need. I can pet sit, walk your dog, or just visit your pets for a little play date whenever you need me. Let me know if you are interested in having me take care of your wonderful pets and I’ll get back to you right away! I’m working full time at the moment, however I always make time to visit your pets and take them on walks. It is a stress reliever for me so I can easily fit them into my schedule. I have 3 cats and a German shepherd in my house. I always make sure they have food and plenty of water, especially in the summer time with hot weather. I will treat your pets exactly how I would treat my own, with love and kindness and plenty of attention.

About: I’m the lady who crosses the street to ask if I can pet your dog. I love all dogs, but big dogs have my heart. I confess, I’m also the lady that will remember your dog’s name, age and origins, but perhaps not always your name. Although I have the confidence and experience to befriend your big dogs, that shouldn’t suggest that I don’t love our smaller friends, as well. Big and small, I love them all❣️ I’ve been responsible for animals most of my life. Chiefly, I’ve had the privilege to care and own big dogs. Growing up, we had a Sheppard-Mastiff mix, and that’s when my love for big dogs began. In our house, we had a macaw, cockatoo, kākāriki, ring-necked parakeet, and a cockatiel, tropical/ saltwater fish, dogs, and cats. I continue to be a proud breed ambassador and have owned 4 Rottweilers over the years. I’ve been gainfully employed as a civil servant for 25 years. After my last Rottweiler passed away, I wanted to care for a dog again, but haven’t adopted quite yet. I enjoy hiking, outdoor activities, walking and traveling, and of course dogs! I’ve had the privilege to care for our misunderstood and sometimes reactive dog friends, as well. All dogs deserve love. I helped welp Belgian Malinois puppies and ensure they found loving, deserving homes. I joke that, “If the choice was between world peace or puppies, I would choose puppies.” I can’t wait to meet your doggie! Since I’m a civil servant, my schedule is consistent. I have free nights and 3-day weekends. I enjoy a lot of free time that I would like to fulfill with dogs. I have a secured, fenced yard. I can also kennel your pets as well. My responsibility to you is ensuring your family member is secure in my charge.

About: I’ve always loved animals and have experience caring for dogs of different personalities, sizes, and needs. I’m patient, attentive, and treat every pet like they’re my own. I love going on walks, playing, giving cuddles, and making sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I currently work as an on-call pharmacy technician, so I have a very flexible schedule. I’m also enrolled in school with online classes, which allows me to be home and available throughout the day. I’d love to spend that extra time caring for and keeping your pets company! I have the flexibility to give your pet the attention, care, and companionship they deserve. I have one dog at home and we have a doggy door that gives him access to our back yard that is fenced and gated.

About: Hi! I’m Shay! I currently work at a vet hospital and I love seeing everyone’s pets - so here I am! my animals are all well behaved and i thoroughly enjoy meeting/watching new dogs. I'm all about getting to know the dogs needs and daily routine and continuing with their normal routine, and providing a safe environment for them. I’m extremely flexible and can work with any animals needs. I also own my own vehicle and can come to you wherever! Thank you so much! I work full time at a veterinary hospital but very flexible in my off time - happy to accommodate a pet anytime or as needed. I take pride in the attention to detail and making your pets feel like they’re not all alone. I am very responsible and quick to notice if there is something wrong.

About: I have experience caring for multiple dogs at a time, including caring for three dogs in one household and two dogs in another. I was responsible for their daily care and making sure they were safe, fed, exercised, and comfortable. Managing several dogs at once taught me how to stay patient, attentive, and organized, even when they were energetic or had different personalities and needs. I genuinely enjoy being around dogs and would treat every pet in my care like they were my own. I only have a college class twice a week for only one hour of my day and I have a part-time job that is only certain days of the week. Rover will be the perfect fill-in for all that extra time that I have, and I will always put my customers first. I live in a very mellow neighborhood where there are also many dogs around me where people are walking their dogs and having them on leashes, I live in an apartment that is very dog friendly and I will spend all of my time taking the dog or taking it out on the grass, we do have a dog area at my apartment.

About: I grew up with many animals in our household from dogs, cats, turtles, birds, fish, and bunnies and always had a unique connection to them. I have an innate empathetic understanding with them. I have experience with training younger dogs, as well as taking care of elderly dogs. I have experience providing necessary medication if needed, as well as lots of love and snuggles and adventurous hikes or leisurely walks for elderly animals. Currently I have a cat and would love to have another dog but for now getting to take care of other people's dogs or cats would satisfy my desire to be around lots of animals. I am currently a full-time student and I work remotely online so my schedule is flexible and I can work from anywhere. I would prefer to watch dogs and cats in your home. I like to communicate with the owner of the pet and get a clear understanding if there is a particular feeding or walk schedule, as well as if medications are required, or crate preferences. I am happy to send a photo of your animal baby each day if you like daily check ups. I love communication so trust and understanding are developed between myself and the owner.

“Laura was great, very communicative and did a great job looking after my cat. The updates and pictures were very reassuring. Would definitely hire her again for petsitting.”

Robby M.

“Very kind, professional, and easy to work with. Would definitely hire again!”

About: I have taken care of two owners pets, house sitting for over two years. They were out of town for a week or more and I would stay at there house, take care of their dog(s) by feeding, taking walks and playing with them. It has been a few years since I have done this. I have also owned two dogs, who have since passed. I have grown up with all kinds of pets, including dogs, chickens, rabbits and cats. Please not, I do work full time at Kaiser in Santa Rosa, Monday-Friday, 8am-4:30pm. I also do volunteer work every other Saturday from 10am-2pm. I would be able to take my lunch anytime and make sure to check on animals (if in Santa Rosa area). I am more than happy to send updates and pictures on any pets that I care for. I can’t take care of pets in my home unfortunately , as I live with my father and he is very allergic to animals. But I will make sure that your pets are cared for and get the attention they need. I’ve always had dogs and cats. I have cared for my coworkers dogs and would house sit at the same time, when they went out of town.

“Peter was very patient and compassionate with my reactive dog. He has a lot of knowledge and understanding of behaviors and went above and beyond to make her comfortable. He clearly wants to ensure the best possible experience for you and your pet.”

Alyssa M.

“Zach took great care of our dogs during his drop-in visits! We have a young 70 lb golden retriever who is quite the handful, and he successfully managed his antics on leash. Very professional and communicative - would highly recommend and will definitely use again!”
