Juliana, did a drop in visit with my high energy male Chocolate Lab Phil. She played with him and he got tons of exercise. I would highly recommend her for a drop in visit and more.

Kathryn is wonderful. We have appreciated her good humor and patience during the long (but very worthwhile) process of our dog Hildy getting to know a new person. We look forward to working with her going forward.

About: With over 20 years of experience, I have a deep understanding of caring for a variety of pets, both my own and others’. Growing up with cats sparked my lifelong love for animals, and over the years, I’ve cared for dogs, chickens, goats, and cats. Our family dog, now 17 years old, holds a special place in our hearts. I know how crucial it is to have a reliable and trustworthy person looking after your pets when you’re unable to, and I bring that level of care and commitment to every pet I watch over. I currently work part-time and have a fairly flexible schedule, allowing me to accommodate a variety of pet care needs. However, since I have children at home, I kindly ask for at least one day’s notice to ensure childcare arrangements can be made unless your pet would enjoy a little visitor tagging along. My goal is to provide focused and attentive care for your pet, so planning ahead helps me give them the best experience possible. Our senior dog prefers a quiet home without furry visitors, so at this time, I am only offering pet care services at your home. I pride myself on being detail-oriented and will closely follow your instructions to ensure your pet is cared for exactly as you prefer. Whether it’s feeding schedules, medication, or special routines, I’ll make sure everything is done just right while providing your pet with plenty of love and attention to keep them happy and comfortable.

About: Hi! I’m Ruby, a dependable and attentive pet sitter with nearly a year of experience at doggie daycare Camp K-9. I ensure every animal receives proper care, love, and attention. Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I plan my schedule around walks, feedings, check-ins, and quality time, ensuring each pet receives consistent attention, proper care, and dependable service. I have a fully fenced yard and two senior English Bulldogs who are calm, relaxed, and friendly with other dogs. I’m happy to care for pets in my home or stay in clients’ homes, always following routines and care instructions closely.

About: To ensure your pet receives individualized attention, we host only one dog at a time. We’re a good fit for dogs who are over 1 year old, 15 lbs or more, spayed/neutered, fully potty trained, and happy sleeping solo (no human beds or bedrooms). These basics help keep the vacation smooth for everyone. Pick up/drop off: 6:00am - 7:00pm. We live with a wonderful Lab named Lincoln (no current job). We are able to do walks (and runs!) through the Watershed, Deer Park, Headlands and love to take photos. For longer stays, we do field trips (including a secret dog pool in Petaluma 🤫). We try to switch each day up to provide variety. Backyard with plenty of room and recently installed dog run. Fenced from road. Also a hammock should our guest prefer a more leisurely day. ;)

About: I understand what it’s like to leave your pet alone with a stranger and I will make sure it is as if you never left! I have owned many different types of pets myself including dogs, cats, rabbits, and Guinea pigs. Animals seem to naturally gravitate towards me and I genuinely enjoy spending my time with animals. I am experienced with puppies as well as elderly dogs. I love showing families pics and videos of their pets while they’re gone to keep them updated! I am available weekday afternoons and some weekends. Monday, Wed, Friday after 3pm and T Th at 5pm. On weekends, I just need a 3 day heads up! I like to make sure the pet feels loved and safe first and foremost and I make sure to keep great communication with the client! I am very adamant on making sure all the necessary tasks are completed as well.

About: I have about 15 years of pet-sitting experience, with plenty of references in the San Francisco Bay Area, and British Columbia. The vast majority of my pet-sits have been through word-of-mouth, as previous clients automatically refer me to their friends, but I am also appreciating the service that Rover provides! I’m responsible, trustworthy, and care deeply about animals. I keep homes filled with warm energy, and bring comfort and fun to animal companions. I have sat for dogs, cats, chickens and a lizard! I have also dealt with special needs animals, including medication administration. I look forward to hearing from you! Why I love dog sitting Lifetime animal lover. Had dogs and cats in my extended family, and have experience taking care of many different types of animals. Makes me feel good to help animals live the best life they live. :-) I have a flexible schedule that I can arrange myself, and I enjoy giving pets as much time as I possibly can. I am very pet-centered. I care by paying attention. It's like having a child in the house; they are dependent on me as their caregiver, and they deserve to have their needs attended to. I don’t have much of a weekly routine, so it fits in quite nicely! I decide what my days look like for the most part. I care for pets in other people’s homes by paying attention to them! They are dependent on me for their care and survival and they deserve happy lives. I actually don’t have a routine, so it fits in quite well! I am able to plan my days around pet care instead of the other way around. I am not one who can just ignore an animal and pretend it’s not there because its wants and needs are inconvenient. They are beings that depend on us for love and survival, so I am very attentive to their needs.

Melina was great! Very flexible with my last minute drop in request. My dogs loved her and she took great care of them. Went above and beyond in a rain storm to make sure their paws were dry and the floors were not muddy. Checked in regularly and made me feel at ease knowing my dogs were taken care of.

About: I’ve cared for dogs of many breeds and personalities for 13 years. Friends, neighbors, and family trust me to walk, feed, play with, and bathe their pets. I’m patient, safety-focused, and I follow routines closely. I’m comfortable with puppies, senior dogs, and administering basic care instructions. My schedule is flexible, so pet care fits easily into my week. I can do consistent walks and drop-ins, and I’m available on weekends for extended care. I’ll follow your routine closely and send updates after each visit. Safety is my top priority. I always use secure leashes/harnesses, double-check doors and gates, and keep pets separated if needed. I follow your instructions for feeding, meds, and routines, and I keep a clean, calm environment. I’ll send photos and updates so you feel confident.

Lydia did a stellar job! She is reliable, on time and a she understands how to take of a cat, which is rare. I can tell she was here and actually paid attention to our cat because of the cat’s behavior when I got home. I would recommend her to another cat owner

About: I’ve cared for dogs in a wide range of situations, including senior dogs, special-needs pups, and dogs recovering from injuries. I’m comfortable with the extra structure and patience they often need. I’m also careful and consistent with medications, and I follow detailed feeding instructions exactly, including timing, special diets, and any restrictions. What I’m especially good at is communication. I pay close attention to a dog’s eyes, ears, posture, and energy, because they tell you so much before they ever make a sound. I notice when a dog is unsure, overstimulated, tired, or asking for space, and I adjust right away, slowing down, giving them time, offering reassurance, or keeping things calm and predictable. I also use a gentle “dog voice” (yes, the sweet baby-talk voice) and clear, steady cues, because many dogs respond quickly to warmth, tone, and consistency. Even anxious or shy dogs usually soften when they realize they’re being understood. I’ve also cared for large dogs, and my Labrador retriever loves having big buddies to play with. No matter the size, age, or temperament, I’m respectful of each dog’s individual needs and I make sure they feel safe, seen, and truly cared for with plenty of affection, attention, and patience. I currently work from home, and I have a (mostly) flexible schedule. I like to get out with my dog two times a day for 2+ mile walks on local trails and parks. I respect people's spaces, and I am good at following detailed instructions for homes and their pets. I have references and happy clients to tell you about it!

I couldn’t be happier with the care our two cats received! From the very first visit, it was clear that Abby has a genuine love for animals. Abby kept us updated with photos and notes, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. We highly recommend Abby to anyone looking for reliable, caring, and professional pet sitting. We have worked with Abby a few times this year and will absolutely be booking again! 🐾💛

About: I have a lot of experience with animals, not just cats and dogs, but birds, fish, hamsters and Guinea pigs. I have cared for my family dog since she was born and she's 14 now. I love animals and am so happy to spend any of my time with them. I have availability throughout the week and weekend as I spend most of my time working from home. This can span throughout the day as well as needed. I am happy to strictly follow whatever is needed for the safety of the pets. Depending on what the pets need and what is requested, I can let them outside, take them on walks, or keep them inside and play with them.
