Adoptions by Owner

We understand that life can sometimes present unexpected challenges, and having to rehome your pet can be one of them. That’s why we want to highlight our free service, Adoptions by Owner. Whenever possible, we strongly recommend exploring this option before considering a shelter. Not only is it a cost-free solution, but it also ensures a smoother transition for your furry friend by keeping them in a familiar environment during the rehoming process, reducing stress and aiding in their adjustment.

We acknowledge that it’s not always possible, but when it is, Adoptions by Owner stands as a great alternative. Your decision to find a caring new home for your pet is an act of love, and Adoptions by Owner is here to support you.

Handsome brothers are looking for a new home together.

Meet George and Midnight! These two handsome 6-year old brothers are looking for a new home together. Their previous owners became very ill and can no longer take care of them. They are in a temporary home for now, but would love to find their new forever home. George is the social one out of the duo. He LOVES pets and will headbutt everyone for more. Midnight is a shy guy at first, but really lets his affection shine once he’s comfortable. The boys love to play and sleep in their cat tree. They also love to play in their cat tunnel, love toys with feathers on them, and enjoy supervised sunbathing outside. They are fully vaccinated, neutered, microchipped, parasite free, and litterbox trained. They also lived in a house with other cats and an older small/medium sized dog. Please reach out to ask questions or express interest in having George and Midnight join your family.  Contact: lee_c3232@yahoo.com or (925) 464-0056.

Meet Izy

Izzy is a sweet, beautiful 5 year old Boxer/American Staffordshire Terrier mix looking for a forever home. She is 80lbs, spayed, chipped, vaccinated, and house trained. She’s incredible with young children, loyal, and loves to cuddle. Izzy is currently in need of a permanent home or a long term foster, as we are moving overseas and she will not be able to move with us. We are devastated to lose our family member but we are hoping to find her a new loving family and in turn she’ll bring joy to your lives as she has ours. We adopted Izzy as a 12 week old puppy and while she was once incredibly energetic she has mellowed with age. She’s currently in a home with two children under 5 years old, and loves her babies: she is so patient, protective and gentle with them. Though she is loyal and protective she can also be super goofy and silly. One of her favorite things is to chase and pop bubbles. She’s crazy for bubbles, and the kids won’t stop giggling watching her chase and bite them. Even though she’s a big girl, there’s nothing she loves more than a good cuddle session on the couch. Izzy is wonderful with all humans but has on-leash aggression towards other dogs and walks can be challenging for individuals without experience with large dogs. This is especially pronounced if you walk her with your children, as she becomes vigilant to protect them. She doesn’t like to be crated (it makes her very anxious and she will probably break out) but she is very well behaved in the house and loves her bed. Finally, she is showing signs of arthritis in her hind legs, and can be sore after a long walk. Sometimes she experiences pain after lying down for long periods of time. Overall she is a healthy and happy dog. Izzy is a regular at Camp K-9 in Marin and would be happy to go back if you go on a trip without her. They love her there and she has never had issues with any of the other animals. With the proper introductions and training Izzy would do well with other dogs in the home. If you’re interested in giving Izzy the loving home she deserves, please contact Ross at westcountyross@gmail.com. We are located in Sebastopol and would love to hear from you.

Moose – Adorable 1-year-old Pitsky with the Bluest Eyes

We fostered Moose and have spent 3 months training him with help from Alpha Dog in Mill Valley. He is very social, and great with other dogs, kids, and adults. Would be perfect for a young family or an active individual. Moose is high energy, tons of fun, and not looking for the quiet life 🙂 His shots are current, he’s neutered and house-trained. We want to make sure his forever home is a great fit. As foster parents, we can be flexible and patient and will do all we can to support a transition.  Contact: lnshearman@gmail.com or (415) 272-9792.

Looking for the perfect fit for Babs

Meet Babs! Babs is a loving 3-year-old (appx.) spayed cattle dog mix who brings lots of energy to the home. She loves to play, and sometimes forgets she’s not a lapdog in an attempt to give you a hug. Babs is the most lovable family dog, and when friends arrive at the house, Babs puts on her guard dog hat to protect the people she loves. Babs came to us from a family where she wasn’t consistently socialized, so she’s been doggie training for the past 4 months. She’s come a long way, but will continue to need schooling to improve even more. For Babs’ perfect home, we are happy to pay for some continued training lessons (we already have a wonderful trainer working with Babs) to continue her socialization. Babs has made huge strides, and with even more training, Babs will loosen up more to strangers. A perfect home will be a more quiet home without lots of people coming and going, so Babs can gain better social skills at a healthy pace. Babs also needs a home with a big yard for her to run around in, while she keeps improving her skills for going on walks. Although we love Babs so much, we lack the time for doggie training and the space at home for Babs to run. We are looking for the perfect fit for Babs, which is a low traffic, patient & dedicated home, with enough time for doggie lessons and space for Babs to run and play. Babs is a special girl and if you think you are the perfect fit for her, please reach out.  Contact: adamscontact707@gmail.com or (707) 329-5078.

Rambo

Rambo is 3 years old about to be four this Oct 8th. He is a caring and goofy guy who loves playing, fetching, and exploring. I would hope his new home is with people that can keep up with his active life style as he is still pretty young and enjoys long walks/runs. He is very friendly both with humans and other dogs and we have never had any issues with him being aggressive. I am looking to re-home him as I am going off to graduate school and will be apartment living where they do not allow dogs his size. I have tried looking with friends and family but there is no one that can give Rambo the adequate outdoor time he requires as a relatively young dog. He is very caring and sweet and while it pains me to have to re-home him I wish him to continue to have a good quality of life with someone who can meet his needs. He is not as vocal as I have seen most husky’s be although he can be talkative from time to time when he wants extra attention. He is very sweet and caring and loves to play or go for walks. He’s never been violent and has always been a big softie despite being not neutered. He doesn’t have a lot of training but is pretty well behaved for a husky. He has been an outdoor dog all his life and does not really enjoy being in enclosed spaces. Contact: gonzalezyguadalupe@gmail.com or (707) 484-1344.

Jack Boy Needs A Forever Home

Jack is a sweet, energetic, and loyal pup. He is an 8 month old white german shepherd Staffordshire mix. We met his mama and papa, they were well mannered and sweet. He definitely takes after them. We love him to death and are very sad to have to rehome him. He LOVES to play. He is a bit shy in new environments, with new people, and at the dog park but at home he is confident and has lots of personality. He needs an active home, with or without another dog. He behaves the best with daily nature/walk adventures. He has never been around kiddos and may be a little too rambunctious for them. With that being said, he is very smart and super trainable. He can sit, lay down, and is somewhat crate trained. We have practiced some off leash with him and he is a very good boy about it if you have treats. As he is still young, a bit wild and needs more training although we have laid some good groundwork. Jack is up to date on all vaccinations, is microchipped, and is intact. Our vet recommended that we wait until he was 12 months old to neuter him. It pains me to have to give him up, we want to find the perfect forever home for our loving boy. Please reach out if you think you may be the right fit. You can email me at kayaburke33@gmail.com.

Sweet little Disco needs to leave the city! Seeking home with yard

Disco is a roughly 4-year-old spaniel mix who I adopted from Oakland Animal Services about 3 years ago. He is extremely sweet, affectionate, and adorable — he loves playing fetch, jumping into your lap, or curling up on the couch watching TV. He is about 10 lbs and has very soft blonde fur and cute naturally crimped ear hairs. He can be a little wary with new people (especially men) but once he warms up, he is super sweet and just wants pets and to show off his tricks. After city living for the last 3 years, Disco is in need of a quiet suburban or rural home with a yard. He has serious leash reactivity issues and is also reactive to outside sounds — right now we live in an apartment where there are constantly people and other dogs walking past our door, and it’s not possible for him to go outside without becoming stressed. Disco needs a quiet environment where he can relax, run around outside and sniff without stress. Disco is crate-trained and can be left alone for 4-5 hours; he does have some separation anxiety issues that I believe additional training could help, however, he would do well to live with a person or family who is home most of the time. We have worked with a few trainers and ultimately determined that his current noisy city environment is too stressful for him. Disco does OK with other dogs his size (off-leash) and is able to go to daycare/boarding. He mostly keeps to himself (probably would benefit from more socializing!). He does not tolerate cats or small children. A home with only adults or older children and no cats would be ideal for him. We are looking for the right home for him that will let him relax, and an owner (or owners) who truly understand his behavioral needs. Contact: doylemargaretb@gmail.com.

3 adorable cats looking for a forever home

We found 3 stray kittens, and after waiting to see if their mother would come around we realized they were on their own so we took them in. We’ve had them since September raising them until they can properly find a home. We’ve had no luck finding suitable people, and can’t keep them as our landlord doesn’t allow pets. We think this is the perfect place in helping them find a forever home with someone who will treat them with the love and attention they deserve. The tabby cat is a male, and the tuxedo cats are a male, and a female. All three cats have been vaccinated, and fixed. They are sweet, playful, and cuddly cats that are waiting to be adopted into a loving home. Please help us find this beautiful cat’s their forever home. If you’re interested please contact me at arevirj83@gmail.com.

Perfet peppermint Patty

Meet PATTY Meet Patty, the sweetest little Italian greyhound /Chihuahua mix you’ll ever come across!

New Home for Jock/2 yr old Mini-Aussie

Hello, We are looking to rehome our 2 year old Mini-Aussie Jock. About Jock: Jock is a very sweet and playful 25lb Red Merle Mini Aussie. Jock is neutered, house broken, and crate trained. Although a high-energy breed, Jock is pretty mellow and is content hanging out and chilling in the house when situation calls for it, although he definitely requires a good walk or run daily. Jock loves his morning walks, playful runs at the dog park, and if you frequent the beach at all, Jock is water-dog! He absolutely loves running on the beach with other dogs and running head first into the water and waves. Jock loves chasing his tennis ball and fetch, but good luck getting him to give it back, as keep-away seems to be his game of choice. We play along because he loves it. Most days, Jock is cuddled up on the couch with our 7 year old son, sitting in the kitchen with us while we getting ready for work and school, or sitting next the back door making it abundantly clear that he is ready for a walk. Our Current situation with Jock: Unfortunately Jock has nipped and bit several people that have come into our yard and home. We have put Jock into some less-than-ideal scenarios and he has not reacted well in most of them (our fault more than his). Jock has become pretty territorial and protective of our yard and us, and when he is around people he doesn’t know or isn’t familiar with he becomes reactive. In an attempt to help him become more comfortable, we keep him leashed until he is familiar with friends, but its not ideal for him and we can tell he has limited patience for people outside of ‘his circle’ that come into our home. Jock has never expressed any aggression towards us or close friends and family that he is familiar with…..but people he is not familiar with, he definitely turns into a guard dog. Additionally, we have only observed this behavior at our house. We have taken him to friends houses and out in public and he has been well behaved and playful when out of his domaine. Jock has also received a good amount of training through K9 Activity Club in Santa Rosa. We felt that he reacted very positively to the training, so much so, that we have continued taking him there for training and boarding as we can see it strengthening positive behaviors. With all that said, we are hoping to find Jock a better situation that would potentially allow for more structured daily activity or a working environment that would be more suitable for his ‘working dog’ nature. It’s a very difficult decision for us to make, but we worry that if he stays with us, this protective/reactive side of him will progress into something we cannot manage safely.

Meet Luna: A Loyal and Loving Companion

Luna is a 3 year old Shephard/Mastiff mix with a beautiful big build and a heart of gold. She is spayed, vaccinated, and house trained, making her the perfect addition to any family. Luna is currently in need of a permanent home or a long term foster, as her owner is currently unhoused and unable to care for her. This loyal and loving girl would make a great companion and is sure to bring joy to any household. Luna has a gentle and affectionate personality, and loves nothing more than to snuggle up with her humans. While Luna could benefit from some behavior training, she has a lot of potential and is eager to learn. We are unsure of how she is around small children and cats, but with proper introductions and training, she could do well in a home with other pets. If you’re interested in giving Luna the loving home she deserves, please contact Renee at (707)-477-0631. We are located in Santa Rosa and would love to hear from you.

Independent kitty redy to learn how to be a pet

This curious and sweet golden-eyed boy cat we’ve been calling Muffin is ready for his forever home. Neutered with basic vaccines and a current topical flea treatment. He lives an indoor/outdoor lifestyle and enjoys the use of our pet door. Would make a good mouser in a rural area or a happy yard cat in town. He came into our life as a stray and is warming up to head pets and belly rubs. We’d love to see him set up with a patient kitty lover who can train him to be a real snuggler. He loves to play and is good at scratching on a scratch pad indoors.

Sadly i have come to terms with what’s best for my girl. She is stressed out and not happy or doing well at home with my new baby and new life dynamic. she was my baby for the last 8 years and since having a human child my focus has shifted and i feel she is suffering. I want what’s best for her and she deserves more than i can give her at the moment. she is so friendly with people and would do best in a home where she gets lots of attention in a calm environment and possibly the only animal. She loves to play and have attention from her owner. She’s been the best cat to me and i want to find her the perfect fit. Contact: freemannicolle@yahoo.com or (707) 480-2869.

Bellatrix

Bellatrix is a two yr old Doberman who needs more attention than I can give her. She is very sweet and incredibly smart. Her issue is that she likes to eat things she’s not supposed to and has had 2 surgeries this year. Trixie has to be in her crate when I’m not home for her own safety and it’s just not a way to live. She would do great with someone who could better supervise her. She is up to date on all vaccines and she is spayed. She is on a prescription diet because of the surgeries. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out. Contact: julieradia@yahoo.com or (707) 480-3934.

Bueller is the purr-fect pet for you!

Bueller is a four-year-old rescue from Dubai (United Arab Emirates). He was a tiny kitten living on the street and I took him in “temporarily”, and now here we are… – Neutered. – Up-to-date on vaccinations. – Outgoing and lovable with humans but prefers to be an only cat. – Has never met a dog. – Special dietary needs. Bueller is allergic to many common cat-food ingredients so he needs to eat a special diet. His food is available on Amazon or Chewy’s. I have tried a lot of different foods and treats and found that he’s very sensitive, so he really needs to stay on one particular diet. I love Bueller and would never consider giving him up, but now I am moving to Africa and I am worried that I won’t be able to get him the correct food (I have been researching). Also, Bueller has a heart murmur (NOT heart disease!) and he gets extremely nervous when traveling even a short distance (e.g. to the vet), so I don’t think it’s in his best interest to take him to Africa. It breaks my heart to part with this cuddly, adoring, beautiful boy but it’s the best thing for him to find a new loving home here in the bay area. Contact: katnkeeana@hotmail.com or (415) 214-1692.

Milo needs a home

Milo came to us a few weeks ago because his family was moving and could not take him with them. Milo is a very quiet and sweet boy. he loves to get in the water, he gets along with other dogs. he is crate trained and was trained to not jump on furniture. he walks good on a leash. and loves to be around people. Milo has been a little sad but that is normal he was with his family since he was very young so it’s no wonder why he misses them so much. Milo really would make a great pet for any family, and we want to see him get one that will love him for the rest of his life. please reach out to meet Milo, we know you will love him we love him and want the best for him.  Contact: Christina@bails4tails.org or (707) 687-9280.

Friendly Feline Brothers Ivan & Whiskers Looking For New Happy Home

We are looking for a new happy home for our feline companions Ivan & Whiskers. We have had these now 6-year-old bonded brothers since their births and they are super sweet and lovie. They are both neutered and are INDOOR ONLY cats. They prefer a quite environment, are mellow and sleep a lot, but love to play too. Seeking a new home for them is a very hard decision to make but we need to put their happiness over ours and find them a home where people are present more often than we are. However, we are seeking the ‘Right-Fit’ home for our fur babies, so we will not just give them to anyone or separate them. If you are interested in hearing more about Ivan & Whiskers, please send an email with any questions. Contact: everyspaceofnothing@gmail.com.

Sweet as a Southern breeze, Fred is Searching for a Gentle, Calm Forever Home.

Louisiana grown, Fred is as sweet and gentle as a Southern breeze. Our family adopted him from a rescue in New Orleans just about 4 years ago. He had spent most of his life in shelters and foster homes, and we immediately fell in love with his loving disposition. My family and I have had to make the extremely hard decision to rehome him, but we feel it is best for our Fred. We’ve been hit pretty hard since moving back to California. We no longer have the financial resources to care for him, nor can we give him the time and attention he needs to thrive in life trying to make ends meet. He is a 6 year old (7/7/18) Plott Hound/Boxer Mix, and weighs a little over 60 lbs. He is neutered and up-to-date on vaccines, heartworm & flea medication. He is potty trained, crate trained (prefers to be in his crate as a safe space), knows the commands “sit” & “down”, walks pretty well on a leash and is very food motivated with training (very smart, responsive and picks things up easily). He has been amazing with our daughter (we have a 10 year old), though he prefers a more relaxed environment as he gets nervous with crazy kid antics and loudness. We have a cat as well that he gets along fine with, but our cat has been getting progressively more aggressive towards him, which is another factor in rehoming. He does get nervous, excited and can be a little vocal when meeting another dog but tends to mellow after proper introductions have been made, and falls inline with the pack pretty readily. He has lived with other dogs for most of his life so we feel adding him to a dog family would be good for him (currently the only dog in house). His general temperament is very sweet and easy going, preferring to laze in the sun on the deck, though he does enjoy the occasional crazy run around the yard when he’s happy, and of course loves walkies in the forest. He does get nervous easily and can be reserved when meeting new people or animals and in new places; we believe this is from possible previous abuse/neglect, living most of his life in foster/shelter care, and maybe not getting important life experiences/socialization when he was younger. He doesn’t react all that much to loud environmental noises such as fireworks, thunder, etc. and even slept through a very large hurricane that passed directly over our house. We feel he would do well in a more relaxed and calming home environment, maybe older kids, with lots of gentle love, car rides, a big yard to run and explore in, and walkies out in nature. Please contact me at rotorwifee5@gmail.com for more information or for questions. We would like to physically see where he will be, and meet any other pets that are in the household. We will also supply all his things (bowls, food, crate, etc.) and are not looking for any sort of monetary compensation for rehoming. Thank you!

Adorable bunny is looking for a loving forever home

Meet Kiki, an incredibly sweet and adorable female bunny rescued from a neglected situation. At about 3 months old, Kiki is the sweetest and friendliest bunny. Despite her challenging past, she is amazingly trusting and curious towards humans. She loves pets and will actively seek them out. Her litterbox habits are impeccable, and she enjoys playing with her toys, and getting lots of free run time to play and hop around. Kiki is also friendly and inquisitive towards the two bunnies in her foster home. She would thrive in a loving home where she would receive plenty of free-run time, attention, and pets. Kiki would likely enjoy having a bunny friend, too. Kiki will be spayed at the end of June and receive her second RHDV vaccine. She will be ready to move to her new home at the beginning of July. Kiki is excited to find her forever home where she can share all her love and be safe and cherished. Kiki is located in Alameda, California.  Contact: jmarschallinger@gmail.com or (650) 283-9032.

Koda the Bear Puppy Seeking Forever Home!

– Location: San Francisco, CA – Name/sex: Koda, 3 month old neutered male – DOB: 3/13/2024 – Medical History: Up-to-date on shots (including lepto), neutered, no abnormal findings on exam. DNA test sent to identify mix of breeds 🙂 – Social History: Rescued from SF SPCA, was in another local shelter prior to that. No bite or behavioral history. – Potty Trained: Yes – Reason for Rehoming: My adult kitty is extremely distressed to have to share my small 1-bedroom apartment with him, despite me following the advice of multiple trainers regarding setup of my home and their introduction, and Koda’s increasing ability to settle and focus on me when she is present – Description: Koda is sweet, cuddly, curious, and BRILLIANT, both in his puppy classes and in home training! See bottom of post for his skills resume so far 🙂 He has a gentle mouth, self-settles after playtime, is polite on the leash, and he sleeps through the night. He tolerates being alone in his crate for up to 2.5 hours during the day! He loves to snuggle but isn’t velcro around the house, instead settling in with a chew in a location that allows him to watch me move about my tasks. He has joined me on cafe patios several times and settles right in for a nap. He was shy with new people at first but now greets them warmly (with no jumping!) after a moment of observing, and he plays nicely with his dog friends. – Cat Friendly: Probably – he gets really excited when he sees my kitty but is redirectable and eventually settles with training – Dog Friendly: Yes – Small Animal Friendly: Unknown – he is very interested in pigeons, but redirectable – Child Friendly: Yes – so far he has met school children outside my house and played with my sitter’s children – Skills: Sit, down, stay, wait, off, leave it, drop it, touch, let’s go, watch me, come, go to jail (his crate), hush, search (the command to keep him moving past distractions with treats thrown in front of us on the sidewalk). Recall on the long line (to his name and come) is going very well! Contact: rehome.koda@gmail.com or (509) 881-1201.

Kittens!

We have 4 adorable kittens ready for adoption. We rescued the mama cat and her newborn kittens when they were a day old. The kittens are almost 10 weeks now and the 3 ginger colored males are neutered, have had their first vaccines, microchipped and have tested negative for feline leukemia. The calico girl will be spayed on 6/24 and will receive her first vaccines, be microchipped and will then be ready for adoption a few days later. They are all litter box trained (we’ve only had one potty accident out of all of these kittens in 10 weeks!) they love their scratching post. They absolutely love people and are well socialized. Their mama is patient and sweet with them. She will also be available soon. Contact: kitty.adoptions2024@gmail.com or (415) 590-1970.

Snickers and Tux-a bonded pair of adult cats

It pulls on my heart strings to rehome my two beloved feline companions. My living situation is changing and I can no longer care for them. Snickers is an 8 y.o. spayed female. She is a people-oriented. May be a bit shy at first but it doesn’t take long to gain her trust although she does not like the vacuum cleaner. She was acquired at 8 weeks old from a local feed store in Santa Rosa and has lived her entire life indoors in a quiet, adult household. Her favorite activity is the laser light. She is litter-trained and being an indoor cat with no contact (other than Tux) with other cats I did not find it necessary to have her vaccinated. I am including the cat trees ( 1 5-6ft, and 2 smaller ones) 2 sifting litter trays and 2 14 lb containers of clumping cat litter and the first 25lbs of dry cat food.  Contact: apearson1950@gmail.com or (707) 236-7614.

Miss Molly

Miss Molly is a 12 year old pittie mix who is a friendly, loving, wonderful dog in need of a quiet retirement home. I am unable to keep her due to severe health issues which have led to housing challenges, making it essential for me to find a new home for Molly as soon as possible. She is not being rehomed due to any behavioral problems. She is house-trained, gets along with dogs, loves people, is mellow and sweet and would be a wonderful addition to any home. To meet Miss Molly please contact Frank via text or phone at (707) 774-4095. I am asking for a deposit of $200 which I will refund after six months if you decide she is a good fit for your family, just to ensure Miss Molly’s safety and well-being. Thank you for considering this sweet dog!

Two Lionhead Rabbit Sisters

These two 4 year-old lionhead rabbit sisters Fluffy & Sunshine have always been together and hopefully still will. They are less than 4 lbs each, spayed, microchipped, and in good health. They are mellow and well-loved, but their owners are moving out of the country and it would be too stressful for them to come along. Thank you for considering giving us a new home!
