Heike G Santa Rosa CA cat sitter

Heike G.— In-Home Pet Sitter

Professional & Experienced

"I love cats because they’re endlessly funny and have a quirky personality of their own. They appear so independent, yet they thrive within their people’s daily routines and, with that, create a special kind of companionship."

About Heike G.

I’m a lifelong animal lover, proud mom of two amazing teenagers, and devoted cat mom to Ella and Luna, who keep life entertaining with their unique personalities and adventures – (which lead each of them to the vet ER once, but that’s a story for some other time..) My journey to San Francisco began in Germany and Switzerland in the arts. I worked as a professional theater artist, painter, and art teacher, spending years helping people connect through creativity and imagination. These days, I’m attempting creativity in a different way by building a flexible life in Santa Rosa centered around caring for animals. As a pet sitter, I bring patience, attentiveness, and genuine affection to every furry friend I meet. Whether your cat prefers playtime, cuddles, or simply a respectful companion who understands feline boundaries, I’m happy to meet them where they are. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pawed family members who can’t tell you about their day, and I take that responsibility seriously. When you’re away, I’ll make sure your pets feel safe, loved, and cared for—while sending plenty of updates so you can enjoy peace of mind. I look forward to meeting you and your wonderful animals!
