Pet Sitters in Santa Rosa, CA

Gwen

Gwen was a wonderful house and cat sitter during our extended summer trip. Our elderly cats require quite a bit of medication and attention and we returned home to happy kitties. Can't recommend her enough!

Victoria

Victoria stayed at our house for almost 3 weeks while we travelled in Europe. She came a day early to meet the kitty and make sure she had all the info she needed. In addition to pet sitting, I asked her to water my indoor and outdoor plants. My garden looked great and the house was spotless when we arrived home. I got regular texts and messages complete with pictures and even got a couple of videos. My kitty was happy, healthy and was obviously well cared for. I would not hesitate to have Victoria as a zeewoi again.

Elizabeth & Ryan Vincent

Despite a few logistical challenges Elizabeth and Vincent took loving care of our 10 month old basset! He can be a stubborn boy but they were flexible to his needs and kept him entertained! They sent updates and photos to keep us in the loop!

Rebecca

Daniel took incredible care of our cat while we were out of the country for a week. We didn’t have any cell service or wifi but I never worried about my kitty because Daniel left such a good impression I knew he was in great hands. Came back to a clean home and a happy cat. Daniel was also very kind and communicative through the whole process.

Mitchell & Diane

Mitch and Diane again showed what a great zeewoi couple they are. The house was left in great shape, clean and neat, and we returned home to a very happy and we'll exercised dog. Mona loves these guys! We will use them again for sure!

Philip

Philip and his delightful family took care of my cats, house and landscaping for 9 days. He was very proactive about calling when he said he would and initiating our walkthrough before my trip. He asked lots of detailed questions and was very responsible.

Jennifer & Dirk

Jennifer hit it out of the ballpark for us once again! We absolutely adore this darling gal, as she takes such good care of our beloved cat, Kitten, and seems to care for our home like it is her own… Jennifer is so conscientious about keeping close tabs on Kitten and her ever crazy antics. We came home tired after travels to a spotlessly clean home, fresh made beds, and a happy, happy cat! We cannot recommend Jennifer enough, so if you are lucky enough to find her application in your inbox, jump to invite her to sit! Thank you again, Jennifer, and we look forward to having you back again! Jan and Chris

Robin

Hello, Robin seemed to be a sensitive, loving cat sitter who was conscientious that all our cats were thriving. We got regular reports that they were doing well. The house was left in perfect condition. Thank you Robin!

Claire

Claire and Hannah were just fab. They were great with booking their flights once we’d had a chat about dates etc. Claire arrived first and immediately fell in love with all of our animals. She was so caring with them and they fell in love with her. She was bombarded with information as soon as she arrived after a transatlantic flight and took it all in her stride. Nothing was a problem or too much bother. We were sent photos when we were away. When we got home the dogs, cats and house had clearly been very well cared for. They are truly lovely, engaging young women and we would highly recommend them. Your animals will thank you for asking them to come!

Benjamin

Benjamin was very reliable coming and going on schedule. He sent texts updating us on the animals. When we arrived home, our pets were happy and healthy and the house was as we left it. We would definitely recommend Benjamin for future sits and our grateful he was able to do ours. We'd love to have him sit again for us in the future.

Andrea

Andie arrived on time and was a cheerful and deflightful pet sitter. She was only here for 1 overnight. Tuxedo took to her right away. She took him for a long walk morning and evening and playtimes during the day. She was neat and tidy...we would definitely have her again! away.

Kelsey

Kelsey was a gem! She kept wonderful care of our house and pets for weeks, even sent us pictures of the pets to assure us they were doing well.

Paula

Paula was very helpful, she sent me a trustful driver to the airport, showed me around the first days. She was always very fast to answer any question I had when she had left town! The cat is super-sweet and the house is very clean. The location is fine for going to the beach. I felt safe and very welcome. Thanks to you Paula!

Luis

Optimus is the sweetest, kindest cat ever, and I immensely enjoyed my time caring for him and receiving so much warmth and cuteness in return! From the moment I stepped into Luis’s fantastic apartment within walkable distance of all the downtown attractions, Opti was easy-going, eager to play or just sunbathe and keep me company on the sofa while I was working. Communication with Luis was extremely easy, and he was very clear and helpful in supporting me in taking the best care of Optimus. Most importantly, the way Opti trusts and expresses affection speaks significantly of Luis's incredible job in raising such an adorable cat buddy. Would love to return!
