Dog Boarding in Paradise

“Danielle is great with my dogs who are reactive to children, men, and dogs. She’s careful to who she lets around them and ensures the boys are not in stress mode before introducing them to possible stressors. She asks questions and sends the most beautiful photos of them to confirm their safety and well-being, and they’re always happy to see her!”

“Mitchell is amazing to work with! She is so flexible and great at communicating with us, and our dog always comes back happy and exhausted from playing. :)”

“My dog had the best stay ever! He has definitely well taken care of in a dog friendly and safe environment. Would absolutely rebook a stay and services with this exceptional sitter. My dog loved his stay there so much that he didn't even want to leave... and has been repeatedly asking to return.”

“Kena and her family were amazing. She watched my three month old bulldog for the weekend and I never felt stressed or worried about him. I received daily pictures and updates. Kena will definitely be my go to sitter from now on.”

“Skylar was excellent with our big dog. He came home happy and tired out from getting to run on his large property. Definitely recommend! He is very polite and great with dogs!”

“Forest was very easy to do business with. He was very accommodating with drop off and pick up and is a very easy person to communicate with. He made us feel very comfortable leaving our old girl with him for the weekend. We felt like she was very well cared for. Would highly recommend Forest for your pup and would use Forest's services again.”

“Lynette was super responsive and very responsible with our dog Odin. She treated Odin like one of her own, and was very helpful when it turned out he wasn't feeling well for part of the visit. Lynette takes the dogs out on walks and has a great setup for the dogs, and sent lots of updates and photos. Absolutely one of the best sitters we've been lucky to work with.”

“Bianca did a great job taking care of our Boston/Frenchie for the weekend. He is very energetic at 15 months old and can be a bit stubborn. Thank you Bianca!”

“Kadin was great with Luna and sent updates with pics without me even having to ask! She had fun playing with all of his dogs. I will definitely call Kadin the next time we go out of town.”

About: If you are looking for active pet hosts for your dog, look no further! We love hiking in the park with our dog (on and off leash). In the past 25 years, we’ve raised 3 Rhodesian Ridgebacks. Tiki is our 4 year old female Ridgeback and she loves adventures and other dogs. We are empty nesters and do not have any other pets. We’ve taken care of many friends pets in the past and we enjoy the opportunity to play and care for their dogs. We look forward to meeting you and your pet! We are available to board, drop in visits, and/or dog walks on the weekends. We are also available for a weekday drop in visit and/or evening dog walks. We have a pet friendly home and a fenced backyard. We are also comfortable to crate your pet if preferred. Tiki, our Ridgeback is very friendly and would love the company of a furry companion.

“Sharice and her family were awesome. Riley had a blast. Thanks again!”

“Very pleased with the care and attention Bogey received. Also communication throughout stay via text or pictures was much appreciated. Recommend the TLC for your pet given, without hesitation.❤️”

“Tylyn was wonderful! Shasta had such a fun time, she thought she was at camp. She played with friends and explored. Thank you for caring for our sweet girl.”

“Heather is an amazing pet sitter. I know this because my fur baby didn’t want to go home after spending the day with her. He even tried to climb the stairs back up to her apartment but I had to pull him away. My feelings got a bit hurt but it’s cool. Going to Heather is like going to grandma’s for Archie, my fur baby.”

“Alyse, Thank you so much for taking care of my Roxy! You made me feel at ease leaving her with you. I appreciate the pictures and video you sent me to let me know how she was doing. Your dog Gio was a perfect playmate for Roxy. It takes a special person to be a pet parent when we are away from our fur babies. I can’t thank you enough.?”

“Jennifer was amazing! Our dog has a little bit of separation anxiety and he showed none of that. He adjusted well to her home and other dogs she was sitting for. She gave us great updates, daily, that were personalized and I could tell she got to know and bonded with our dog. We will for sure use Jennifer again and have great peace of mind to know someone so loving and experienced will take care of Buck!”

About: I started caring for animals as a child which led to professional care beginning in high school as a dog groomer which later led to work in a Veterinary office on the Ridge. I have been trusted to care for friends and families animals for brief and extended periods. In my personal life I have owned more than 15 animals including cats and dogs. Although, I do not own animals at this time. Animals are our children- family members, and they deserved to be cared for as nothing less. I am a stay-at-home mother and work part-time at my church leaving me plenty time to care for your fur-baby. Seven days a week I am open to serve your needs- day time and night. Animals are treated as family in my home. When we go for a walk- they come, too. Lots of sunshine is shared as we all play outside running and jumping. When we eat they join us for a snack of your choosing. We read or settled down in the evenings with a movie where your fur-baby gets to snuggle up on the couch or in their favorite bed or blanket. Bedtime is another opportunity for cuddles or space depending on what your fur-baby chooses. Comfort and individualized care is key. When a bath is needed or desired- it will be given. When hungry- your fur-baby eats, according to your routine. You are in control of what works best for your baby. Fur-babies in my home are on vacation not in boarding.

“Macy took great care of my energetic puppy for the weekend. She sent photos and checked in with me! Thanks for being patient with my pup and taking great care of her!”

About: Hi! As a dog/cat mom myself, I understand the struggle of trusting a stranger with your fur baby and my main goal is loving your animals as if they were my own! All animals welcome and adored! Feel free to shoot me a message with any questions or inquiries! I work Mondays - Thursdays. I’m usually off work and back in Chico by around 5:15 pm. I am available on the days I work to do potty breaks/walks after 5:30 pm. I also have a SUV and can make myself available to take your dog on walks/out and about. I am unable to leave work to come back to Chico during my shifts, however, my boyfriend and I live together so he is able to let the dogs out/etc before he goes into work on the days he is scheduled. Just shoot me a message with your inquiries and I’ll do my best to accommodate and help out because I understand how important it is to make sure fur babies are taken care of by good people! We have two dogs and two cats that all get along just fine. The dogs are allowed on the bed but not on the couch. When leaving our home, the dogs are kenneled. We have two kennels, one in which both of our dogs are kenneled together. If your dog is not kennel friendly, scheduling would just need to be more considered by me and I could work around that.
