Pet Sitting Zinfandel

“Julie was amazing!”

About: I love animals more than people! Been petsitting all my life. First to offer my friends and neighbors to be Auntie to their little muffins. I owned a petsitting and dog training business in Portland for many years... had to move and change jobs but I still love having as many furfriends as possible! I consider myself very intuitive and always respect a pets boundaries. Listening is key and watching for body language. I will take the very best care of your home and pet!! Just like they were my own. I work for myself and have a very flexible schedule. I can work around what works best for you. Great at time management and super reliable. I prefer sitting at my clients homes and have extensive experience with housesitting alone. I have managed luxury homes and can offer extra things like plant watering, mail pickup, coordinating with staff, etc.

“Siarra was great. She checked on our two older cats over a weekend for us. Spent time with them, emptying litter boxes, feeding them and sending us some good pictures. I would definitely recommend her, and I’m sure we will use her again.”

About: I grew up taking care of my family's dogs (feeding, bathing, walking, playing with) and I started cat sitting for neighbors when I was ten. I am currently working a part time job from my home, so I have a lot of flexibility to walk, feed, or watch your pets overnight. I won't be able to board animals in my house but because I have two dogs of my own I understand how precious our animals are and promise to treat your animals with the same love and care I treat mine with.

“Julianna was incredible! So attentive, punctual and thoughtful. She was the perfect fit for my cat, and adapted instantly to accommodate his needs. I would wholeheartedly recommend!”

About: I’ve had dogs since I was 5 years old. I have experience with both small and large breeds. It will be all love and play that your furbaby won’t even notice you’re gone! I work full time on weekdays (11am-6pm), with a 30 min commute, and am available early mornings and evenings. On weekends I am free almost all day. I have a dog at home and cannot care for more at my place due to limited space. I am happy to care for others at their home.

About: I've been around animals since I was a baby. I have a fondness for the senior pets, they are just the sweetest! I love having playtime and cuddle time and a good walk if you're pet enjoys walks. (My grand cat walks on a leash, so we go on walks all the time). It's a scary time when pet parents are away for both pet and parent and I'll be there to make all of you at ease! I have a very flexible part-time job, so that frees me up to spend as much time as needed with your fur baby most weekdays and weekends, even holidays! I have three indoor feral rescue kitties. It took time and trust on all sides, but all three are now the sweetest cats ever! Every fur baby that has been brought into my house over the years, was either a feral I rescued off the street or adopted from a shelter. Mine are indoor only, except for when I sit on the porch. They get to come outside, but they all stay on the porch and come inside when I do.So lots of toys and enrichment is important for them. They all love to play fetch and chase the laser! Whatever your pet requires or whatever their routine is, I'm there for it. It's all about your pet and putting your mind at ease that they are in the best possible hands!

About: Animals have been a cherished part of my life for over 30 years, and I understand that our pets are truly members of the family. Whether they’re playful, affectionate, independent, shy, or a little quirky, I believe every animal deserves patience, kindness, and individualized attention. I have extensive personal experience caring for both dogs and cats and appreciate their unique personalities and needs. From energetic dogs who love attention and companionship to independent cats who prefer affection on their own terms, I enjoy building trust and helping animals feel safe, comfortable, and loved. As a registered nurse, I bring an additional level of responsibility, compassion, and attention to detail to pet care. I’m experienced in following detailed care instructions, maintaining consistent routines, and recognizing subtle changes in behavior or well-being. I understand how especially important this can be for senior pets or animals who need a little extra patience and attention. I also know how much trust it takes to leave your beloved companions in someone else’s care. My goal is to provide the same warmth, respect, and attentiveness I would want for my own pets, while keeping you connected through regular updates, photos, and open communication. Whether your furry family member needs companionship, playtime, reassurance, or simply a calm and caring presence, I would love the opportunity to get to know them! I currently have a flexible schedule that allows me to thoughtfully plan pet care around each animal’s individual needs. I enjoy peaceful environments, spending time with animals, and maintaining familiar routines. I believe consistency and companionship make a meaningful difference in helping pets feel comfortable while their families are away. I prefer to discuss each pet’s schedule, personality, and care requirements in advance so I can make sure we’re a wonderful fit. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my priorities. I understand how much trust it takes to welcome someone into your home and entrust them with a beloved family member. As a registered nurse, I’m accustomed to maintaining safe environments, following detailed instructions, and paying close attention to changes that may require additional care or communication. I respect each household’s routines, boundaries, and preferences. I take care to maintain a clean, peaceful environment, secure doors and gates, and follow feeding, medication, and household instructions carefully. I believe in open communication and will provide updates and photos throughout our time together. My goal is for you to return to a happy, comfortable pet and a home that has been treated with care and respect.

“We have been working with Melany from the start of our Rover experience, and she has been spectacular! My husband and I have variable schedules week to week, but Melany is always understanding and steps in when she can. Our 6 month Shepherd mix has loved her visits over these past couple of weeks :)”

About: Hello! I’ve been around dogs all my life. I’m kind, patient and am experienced with all sorts of dogs. Please note I do own a dog of my own that is here, she kind playful and friendly. I am currently working remotely and am home almost all day long. I take my pet on three walks a day. I also have an enclosed fenced in backyard with easy access. I have a one-level home with friendly neighbors. I am located right off route 29 & have a large fenced in backyard for your pets to enjoy!

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.

“Logan's drop-in visits with our seniorly cat were just the ticket. We got a long weekend out of town and Mello was well cared for. He got his meds, food, clean up, plus play time and brushing. Adorable photos, too. This was preceded by a thoroughly enjoyable meet and greet. We'll certainly have Logan as our pet sitter again.”

About: I’ve walked, cared for and raised more animals than I can count, I’d love to help with any pet needs! From Pointers to Pit Bulls, to Yorkies! Always willing to run, walk and play with your pets! I like to go on walks and/or runs for Cardio and like to have the company. Mornings of Evenings could work depending on the day usually Weeks I am the most free! I always make sure follow written/ my noted directions to make sure feeding times, walk times and any other matter isn’t an issue with my/your property or your pet.

About: I have been taking care of family and friends fur babies for over 38 years. I have volunteered at the Humane Society in Santa Rosa and in Healdsburg. I have a a lot of referrals from long time pet sitters. My clients have turned into wonderful friends and their fur babies becoming so dear to my heart. I work a parttime job 7am to 3:30pm. I get up early in the morning and can walk and feed your pet and I get home early enough to have plenty of play time. As a pet sitter coming into your home, I would make sure that your dog or cat are safe at all times I take my job very serious when I’m taking care of someone else’s pet and my own. I also will make sure that if your dog likes to play fetch that I play fetch with them that when walking them, their leashes secure and their harness. I also will make sure your home is as clean as you left it or cleaner I can also strip the bedding and put new bedding on. My number one concern is that your fur babies and you are comfortable with me.

“Viridiana was wonderful! She took great care of the cats and turtle, and was really good about communicating with me while we were away. I'll definitely book with her again!”

About: Since my teen years I've been entrusted with the care of dogs, cats and the homes of many friends, family, acquaintances, and community members at large. I am detail oriented, patient, dependable and empathetic. I am a lover of dogs and cats alike and I truly I feel that I have connected deeply with every animal I have ever met. I have had some experience with puppies and kittens, as well as senior/ disabled animals. I grew up with animals but do not currently have any of my own. I work as a creative professional and often work at home, but I have developed a mobile workspace. I would be honored to assist you and your furry ones! I am a freelance musician and video producer. On occasion, I am in the field filming, or performing, however I spend most of my time at home on the computer coordinating and editing projects. I have been blessed with a flexible schedule which has enabled me to have the availability to assist others with their sweet pets. I am flexible and willing to exercise, administer meds, clean-up after, and provide company, play, and cuddles. I am sensitive to your needs and the needs of your loved one(s).

“Rusty did a terrific job with a drop-in visit I recently booked. Rusty took the time to get to know the dogs and the lay of the land with a meet and greet several days prior to the actual drop-in, which I appreciated. One of my dogs is an incredibly energetic dachshund puppy and the other is a senior dachshund with some trust issues. Rusty was incredibly knowledgable with how to handle both and I felt at ease with Rusty as my choice. I especially appreciate how communicative Rusty was throughout the process and they even sent me some cute pictures of my dogs during the visit. Thanks, Rusty!”

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.

“Rissa is very kinda and sweet to my pups! She’s extremely helpful and sends me lots of pictures! :)”
