I have been with Pet Indulgence for years. They are reliable, efficient and very trustworthy. They really love animals and it is apparent by the treatment received by my pets. The litter is always clean and the bird’s room is always free of mess. I do not hesitate to recommend them as pet sitters, I can vacation without worrying about my animals. They even care for the stray outdoor cat that hangs around my yard.

We have been working with Pet Indulgence for a year now and like many pet owners, we think of our pet as our child. Christine always responds very quickly to any requests that we have and Madison goes above and beyond to make sure our kitty is well taken care of and happy when we go away. We so appreciate the texts and photos and are able to truly relax when we’re away because we know that our cat is given lots of attention and love by Madison. We have used many pet sitting services in the past and Pet Indulgence is by far the best. Highly recommend!

I needed to cover 2 days of solid 24-hr care for my dog when I had to go in for surgery, and needed it to be in my home with someone who was very comfortable with emergencies, because my dog had been having seizures. I was thrilled to find Pet Indulgence – they were very responsive and went far out of their way to meet my needs – I felt I was cared for along with my dog! Christine was absolutely wonderful and Willa adored her. There were no problems and I was able to completely trust and relax as I needed to. I came home to a contented dog and a neat and clean home. It was a great experience – they have very high standards, which they work hard to meet – and I will definitely use them again.

I have four dachshunds and they require special instructions (no stairs) and care (gentleness with traumatized rescue dogs) and also someone dachshund savvy who understands the breed’s characteristics (stubbornness) Your dog walker Christine Wolter is wonderful in all these respects. The dogs love her and I can leave them in her care without ever having to worry about their happiness safety or welfare.

I am continually impressed with the professionalism and outstanding service! Getting an update by voicemail or email while gone is such a nice touch (also, the detailed visit report to find out what was happening and daily details). Besides the excellent care of Lily, I was so impressed with the many thoughtful deeds that go above and beyond the job. The cat box area was immaculate and swept up…it looked like the maid service had just left! Most of all, graciously cleaning up a ‘litter box’ miss. I also appreciated the fact that Pete noticed a toilet malfunction and adjusted the mechanism so that it wouldn’t be running while I was away. Thank you again for such amazing care!

Gyro the cat
Usually, Gyro sheds hair all over us when picking him up on return. This time NOT! You are so efficient and organized. Again, we appreciated your thoughtfulness of strawberries and wine. How sweet they and you were! You don’t need improvement. We had no idea a pet sitting service could be so good and give us such a secure feeling that our ‘boy’ was in such good and capable care.
— Marilyn & Tom M. – Novato, CA

Your service is remarkable from start to finish! To meet with your clients in advance to familiarize yourself with the animals at no charge is generous. The peace of mind I had before the trip was great. Even with my follow-up calls prior to service, you were patient and detailed. You cannot improve perfection! Rarely have I felt so positive about a service experience (20 years Hotel, I’m a tough critic)….
— Suzanne P. – Petaluma, CA
About your service, I liked all of it – most impressive from A to Z. We feel really comfortable turning our home and pets over to you. Our plants have never looked as good when we were previously away!! Really professional! Warm, lovely to work with and very first class service! We just won’t worry when we are away.

We feel completely confident leaving Bumper in your wise care, knowing that you go the extra mile in making him feel loved and secure and dealing with the extra problems with his complete blindness.

We appreciate all the interaction (play) that Fetzer received in addition to the actual physical care. We felt like we were leaving Fetzer with family members. It was reassuring to know that you would spend extra time with Fetzer if you thought it was warranted. We can’t imagine how you could improve your services. You weren’t kidding when you named your business Pet Indulgence!
— Claudia A. – Petaluma, CA
You were there for our dogs when we couldn’t be – even through illness and dominance problems. We appreciate all you did with our kids. We didn’t have to worry about them on the days you came by. Linda and Pete, thank you so much! We really appreciate all that you’ve done! The transition with Willow has been tough – but you’ve made it bearable.

Stephanie and her dog
Pete & Linda went above and beyond all my expectations. They were extremely organized and professional in planning my customized service. I am sure that my pets were very comfortable in their care. I highly recommend Pet Indulgence to any pet owners that would like a “four star” service for their pets while they are away from home.
— Stephanie F. – Rohnert Park, CA

Upon my return home my dog Sierra was very happy, calm and appeared well cared for. Our home and gardens were in very good condition. Also, her manners are much improved! My neighbors spoke highly of you. They watched your visits and interacting with our dog. A+ rating!
— Sherri F. – Petaluma, CA
I was very nervous about leaving my dogs for the weekend, but when I was gone I felt so very comfortable with Pete watching them. He would call me and tell me how they were. It was very comforting – it really allowed me to have fun on my vacation knowing they were in such great hands.
— Renee B. – Petaluma, CA

AJ the dog
We needed help exercising our Border Collie and were really worried no one would take him on. While AJ is a total love with people, he does not like other dogs and is scared of certain sounds. We totally trust them with our special boy! We’re so glad we found Pet Indulgence!
— Diana N. – San Rafael, CA

You are professional, kind and compassionate. You genuinely connect with/and understand the pets. You did everything you said you would, plus more. It is hard on Joey when we leave and we appreciate your going to extra lengths to support and comfort him. And the house looked beautiful. Thank you for keeping it clean and arranging the mail and packages so neatly.
— Kathleen C. – Petaluma, CA
I interviewed a number of services before I decided on Pet Indulgence and the reason I chose Pet Indulgence is Pete. He is gentle and calm with my pets and projects confidence and reassurance as a professional. There was an unanticipated crisis during my vacation and Pete found a solution and managed the situation smoothly. I knew I picked the right person to entrust with my pets and will not hesitate to either recommend Pet Indulgence or use the service in the future.

Walks with Lisa has completely changed my German Shepherd’s behavior on-leash. She is happier, less fearful, and much less reactive. My own walks with her are now a joy, as opposed to a worrisome experience about her behaviors. I have learned a lot in my casual conversations with Lisa about how to handle my own dog!
— Marcy B. – Petaluma, CA

This is the first time I’ve left my cats in the care of someone other than a friend or family member, and I couldn’t be more pleased. As an added bonus, I didn’t have to worry about finding and buying an expensive thank-you gift while on the trip!
— Elizabeth R. – Petaluma, CA
Pete and Linda, thank you SO much for the great care you provided to Quinn. She was so loved up, she didn’t even give me the usual ‘cat cold shoulder’ on my return! That’s saying something. Bless you guys so much!
— Leslie K. – Petaluma, CA

Very reliable, very loving toward pet, very trustworthy. You’ve thought of it all! And more!
— Mike & Kim N. – Rohnert Park, CA

We liked everything! Mainly the security of knowing that our cats were not only taken care of, but that they were cared for by someone that obviously knows and loves animals. The visit report at the end was a real plus…. What a blessing we found you. We are so grateful.
— Leslie & Chris C. – Petaluma, CA
We appreciate that our dog got daily affection as well as attention. All of his needs were met, which is especially important when a dog needs medication. The house and yard were in fantastic shape when we returned. Your service was comprehensive, professional, and friendly!
— Nadine & Vance D. – Petaluma, CA

I love the way you both are with Sadie, very affectionate; you guys knew her real well and it was only the first dog sitting job. Pete has a great intuition with Sadie, I was very impressed. Our dog Sadie is a hound dog and can be extremely strong-headed, and Pete and Linda made Sadie look like a piece of cake to handle – that’s incredible! Thanks a lot, you guys.
