About: I am a huge animal lover and have had many pets all of my life. My dogs are not just pets but members of the family. I have had many dogs over the years ranging from cockapoo’s, terriers, Westies, a German Shepherd and yellow Labs. I have also had 5 cats. My current dog and cat are best friends! I care for many friends and neighbor dogs and have play dates on a daily basis. Dogs are always on the guest list for dinner parties or holiday gatherings and have gifts under the tree. If I had a bigger yard, I’d have a dozen. I would love to meet and spoil your dog while you were away. I will treat them like my own and we will have a great time together. After retiring from my long term job, I became a caregiver for family members. I enjoy walking so thought this would be a perfect fit for getting more exercise and fill my love of having multiple dogs. I have availability in between caring for people and would love to take your dog for a walk. I will care for your pets as my own in your home and a walk. If there is any special requests or instructions, I will happily follow.

About: Currently being a stay at home mother, my hours are very flexible! Growing up with cats and dogs, my kiddos and I are currently lacking the fun presence of furry friends! Although my apartment is not the biggest, allowing only one dog at a time allows all of my attention to be focused. If pets are to stay overnight you can expect daily walks, trips to dog parks and most likely a bath if we get too ambitious. I am an adventurous person that believes dogs have individual personalities and unique characteristics that should be embraced and loved. Allowing pets to cuddle up on the couch MAY be negotiated because I am a sucker for puppy eyes. I am currently a stay at home with my three kiddos. I home school, so including a dog in the mix is so much fun for us! We often go on walks and trips to the park. I have a fenced yard, doggie door for easy outside access and loving, gentle kids to keep your animals company with lots of love and play.

About: I have been walking dogs everyday for most of my adult life! I know how important it is for dogs to have daily exercise for physical and mental health. I am newly retired and ready to have fun walking your dog. My schedule is very open and I can even walk your dog on weekends. I have experience with all size dogs and personalities. Let me know what your dog enjoys most on walks and I can do the same.

Oli has been such a help for both overnight house sitting and quick workday walks. She is respectful of all my requests, very communicative and helpful. Best of all, she is so great with my large, energetic German shepherd dog. I’m so grateful for her help and would highly recommend her services.

About: Hello, my name is Lisa, and I adore dogs! I have had many fur babies over the years and I currently have one dog, a female, Ebony, who I adopted from a dog rescue in Sacramento nine years ago. I also have a kitty, Venus, who is also female, is 13 years old and is also a rescue. I recently took some time off to care for my mother, hence the gap in my service here at Rover. When you entrust me with the care of your dog, you can rest easy knowing that I will care for them as my own❤️. I look forward to meeting you and caring for your dog(s)! Here’s a little history about me and my experience with dogs, cats, horses, goldfish and mice. I have been an animal lover since a very young age, when I had a pet mouse and a goldfish. I then convinced my mom to adopt a cat, which I named Bilbo. I loved him so much. When I was in junior high, we adopted a sweet dog we called Tonka. I then fell in love with horses, and my mom bought me a horse, who I loved very much. I participated in Future Farmers of America in high school and I am a former volunteer dog walker for the Rohnert Park Animal Shelter. I have a 13-year old female domestic short-haired cat named Venus, and an eight year old terrier named Ebony. Both are very sweet, and Ebony gets along with every dog she's ever met. We live in the M Section of Rohnert Park where we enjoy taking long walks together. I have a nice-sized, fenced back yard with plenty of room to play. I have previous experience as a dog walker at the Rohnert Park animal shelter. I can't imagine a life without animals in it, and I will take special care of yours. My schedule varies week to week, depending on my work schedule, and I am generally available in the evenings and weekends unless I am out of town. On the weekends, I enjoy walking and hiking with Ebony, gardening, and kayaking. My pets are family, and they sleep with me. They also lounge and nap on my couches. I have a lot of toys and a nice backyard which is fenced. Your dog(s) will feel right at home here!

Amanda was great. I needed a last minute dog walker as I was leaving for a work trip and she was immediately responsive and was able to connect with my neighbor to make sure everything went smoothly. I will definitely be using her in the future, as needed, and would highly recommend.

About: I've been taking care of my neighbors pets starting when I was around 10. There's been cats, dogs, birds, and fish. I also have three pets of my own, a cat, a husky, and a border collie. I have trained both my dogs in the basics, and the husky how to jump through a hoop and the border collie to roll over. Pet care fits perfectly into my routine because I have a super flexible schedule and love spending my free time with animals, it’s honestly the best part of my week. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I stick to their routine, give them lots of attention and cuddles, and keep their space clean, cozy, and stress-free.

Hey, I’ve got a big fenced yard—tons of space for safe play and running around. My one friendly dog loves company, and I can crate if needed.

About: When I adopted my first dog he was a very scared dog. He is now very friendly and loves scenting challenges. I’ve used my skills to help others improve their relationship with their animals and created a trusting relationship to care for pets when their families are out of town. I have a flexible schedule that can be adjusted to meet your needs. I do prefer to include some time for an animal introduction for all new families. I have a strong history of animal care that meet the needs of my clients. Every pet is different and I am able to adapt and accommodate to different attitudes, schedules for feeding, medical care, walking and entertaining. I work to make sure pets are comfortable and clients return to the same feeling as if they just got home from work.

About: I've taken care of dogs since I was 9 or 10. I had taken close care of my family dog as she got older, then took care of the puppy we got after our first dog. Family and friends have trusted me to walk their dogs of all sizes. I am currently a college student attending Sonoma State University. On Monday and Wednesday, I have classes from 10 am to 11:50, then another class from 5 pm to 6:50 pm. On Tuesday and Thursday, I have classes from 9:30 to 10:45 followed by another class from 11 am to 12:15 pm. On Friday I am completely free. I will be respectful when going to a client's home, making sure pets are cleaned up and have water before I leave. If pets are required to be confined to an area, I will make sure they are put into that area before I leave.

I have a large back yard and pet friendly neighborhood for long walks. I do have a bearded dragon and a tank with shrimp but both are in their own enclosures so won’t be in the way or mess with your loved one :)
