“Kena is the absolute best! She is so loving towards my dogs and takes amazing care of them. My flight got cancelled on my trip and she was very accommodating, keeping the dogs until I got home.”
“This was Beau’s first stay with Forest. He took Beau for long walks a few times a day, and he provided daily updates with photos. Forest treated our pup as if he were his own, and his home is well-suited for dogs. We would definitely use Forest again for our future boarding needs. Thank you!”
“Having King with Holly was amazing! She sent so many pictures and really made me feel at ease. She listened to everything and he had so much fun. I would definitely recommend for dog sitting and we will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Amazing Service!! I needed boarding for my dog Honey VERY last minute and Jessica was happy to help! She did a great job at caring for my girl and even sending photos of my dog throughout the time she was there, which I really appreciated. I would definitely rebook with her!”
“Im so glad we found Danielle to watch our dog. We had a pet sitter cancle on us last minute and she was willing to pet sit on short notice. She also provided pics and updates while we were away. Definitely recommend booking with her!!”
About: Hi! I’m an experienced and loving dog walker and pet sitter with over 4 years of experience working for a dog walking company in San Diego. I’ve cared for multiple dogs at a time and have experience with dogs of all sizes, as well as cats. Before that, I pet sat for friends and family, so caring for animals has always been part of my life. I love making sure every pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for while their owners are away. I treat every pet like my own and always follow their routines to keep them comfortable. I’d love to meet your furry friend and help give them the care and attention they deserve! I am currently a stay at home mom to my 16 month old son. He does spend time with his nana during the week which makes me flexible for walks and sitting! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a fully fenced yard and live in a very walkable area, perfect for safe outdoor time and daily walks. I always keep pets supervised and make sure they’re secure both inside and outside. If your pet is crate-trained or needs to be crated, I’m happy to do so with no hesitation and will follow your instructions closely. I take routines seriously and do my best to keep your pet’s schedule and environment as familiar and stress-free as possible while they’re in my care.
“We just love Lynnette! I can't think of a better place to take your fur baby. It truly is like a resort for dogs! Holly had a great time and was probably disappointed to come home to our boring house. Lynnette sent pictures throughout her stay which helped us, knowing she was having so much fun. Thank you again Lynnette!!!”
“Deena was great with my dogs she was very friendly and easy to communicate with. Greatly appreciate the photos and updates! The dogs had a great yard to run in with lots of toys. Highly recommend Deena for your pet sitting needs! Thank you!!”
About: With years of hands-on pet care experience, I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. From daily walks and feeding routines to playtime, overnight sitting, and attentive companionship, I understand how important trust and consistency are when it comes to your pets. I treat every dog as if they were my own, focusing on safety, comfort, and individual needs to ensure they feel happy and secure while in my care. I currently go to Chico state , however 3 of my courses are online this semester , therefore , I am looking to take on 3-4 jobs of week taking care of your pets needs. I care for pets by following their normal routine as closely as possible, whether in my home or in a client’s home. This includes regular feeding schedules, fresh water, exercise, playtime, and plenty of attention and affection. I prioritize safety, cleanliness, and comfort at all times, and I carefully follow any instructions provided by the owner, including medication needs, training guidelines, and special preferences. I also provide updates and photos so owners can feel confident and at ease while their pet is in my care. I have an apartment with plenty of space and a big grassy park area to let your pet run around and play ball!
“I couldn’t have been more impressed and just overall comfortable knowing my pup was safe and sound. Very communicative, very positive, very attentive. She will definitely be my first choice in the future. Jenna and her family were incredible and my pup was actually sad to leave her house. lol couldn’t have asked for better honestly.”
“Monisha was great with Wrex and provided lots of pictures and details of daily activities, including lots of walks. I will book with her again and was very happy with her service!”
“Heather was responsive and so caring for my Paislee! In fact, this morning when I left for work Paislee thought I was going to take her back to Heather and she got super excited. When she comes back to me healthy and happy I am so pleased!”
“Literally the most amazing pet sitter! This was my puppies first time being away from me. Mary has been nothing but loving to my little Bella. She sent me photos and videos to update me throughout the day. As soon as I dropped her off, Mary sent me adorable videos! Mary and her husband are incredibly sweet and made me feel more than comfortable, even excited to have my puppy stay with them. I knew that Bella was going to be in great hands. They asked lots of questions when I dropped her off and helped me carry all Bella’s stuff inside their house. Their dogs were sweet and gentle with her. I am so happy! I am 100% booking with Mary again! If you want a great pet sitting experience and a second home for your dog when you need it, book with Mary! My puppy was so incredibly happy and loved!”

Jessica watched our 9 week old puppy for 3 days. She accepted the job on a holiday weekend. She has the perfect home and yard with the friendliest dog for our puppy to play with. She sent us pics and videos and gave us such piece of mind. I will definitely use her services again! ❤️🐾
Holly is amazing. She made us feel at ease from the minute we walked in the door for our meet & greet. She sent us many pictures along with updates to keep us informed while he was with her. He even got to visit their gym - I think he is now a gym-dog!!! Melvin seemed happy and content while in her care. You can tell she just loves animals and is so good with them - we will definitely have Mel stay with her next time we need a sitter. Thanks Holly for loving our Mel like we do!
Christina V. was an amazing sitter for our rescue puppy. This was Jenny’s first time being away from us and because she is fearful of everyone we knew we needed someone special. Christina was kind and caring and really made it easier for us to leave our puppy overnight with a sitter for the first time. Christina met us at the park the day before the ‘slumber party’ so that Jenny could get a bit familiar with her. They had a great time. I got updates and videos of our baby girl playing and doing just fine. We highly recommend Christina for your sitting needs.
Paige was amazing with our dog Finde. She was great with communication and provided regular updates. She was flexible when we had a later pick up time than anticipated. Finde had the time of his life and come home super happy. As someone who is very picky about I leave my dog with, I felt very at ease trusting Paige. We definitely plan to continue to use Paige in the future.
