Dog Walking Chico

About: I’ve been caring for pets for over 4 years and truly love working with animals. I have experience taking care of dogs of all sizes and ages, including small dogs, large dogs, senior dogs, and puppies. I understand that every pet has different needs and personalities, and I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’ve also cared for cats for about a week at a time, helping with feeding, playtime, and keeping them company while their owners were away. I’m patient, dependable, and will care for your pets like they’re my own. WEEK OF JULY 19 WORK SCHEDULE: Wed: 4pm-9pm, Thurs: 4pm-9pm, Fri: 5pm-10pm, Sat: 4pm-9pm I am currently working part time. I am able to stay overnight on weekends (will be notified if I get scheduled by work instead). I have free time to come check on dogs every few hours and give them lots of love and attention. Also depending on my schedule I can work during the week. I’m a college student but I’m on summer break so no need to worry about my school schedule! Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I make sure pets are supervised, well cared for, and given plenty of attention throughout the day. I always follow feeding schedules, walking routines, and any special instructions carefully. I keep a clean, calm, and pet-friendly environment so your furry friend can feel safe, relaxed, and loved while you’re away.

“Alisa was above and beyond the best dog walking experience I could have ever hoped for! My boy Porter absolutely loved her from day one! Alisa is very sweet and very prompt with her responses, and she made me feel at ease with her daily updates and photos of Porter. Thank you so much Alisa, you are absolutely wonderful!!”

About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember and have always been the go-to pet sitter for family and friends. I have experience walking, feeding, bathing, and caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. I’m currently pursuing a Bachelor’s degree in Animal Science (Pre-Vet) at Chico State and working toward my Veterinary Assistant certification, which has given me hands-on experience in proper animal handling, behavior, and care. I’ve cared for both dogs and cats extensively, including volunteering at animal and cat shelters. As a pet owner myself (from a Belgian Malinois to a Chihuahua, and currently a cat), I understand how unique each animal’s needs can be. I’m also involved in Guide Dogs for the Blind, where I help train dogs; building strong skills in patience, consistency, and communication. Most importantly, I care not only about your pets but about your peace of mind. I prioritize safety, trust, and clear communication so you always feel confident your pet is in good hands. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I care for my own cat with a consistent feeding schedule, fresh water, enrichment, and medication when needed. I also regularly work with livestock, keeping me active in hands-on animal care. Safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I make sure every environment is calm, clean, and pet-friendly, and I take care to remove any potential hazards. I closely follow each pet parent’s instructions, including feeding routines, medications, and any specific care needs. I take time to understand each pet’s personality so I can provide patient, attentive care that helps them feel safe and stress-free. I also carry basic animal first aid supplies and am prepared to respond calmly in case of emergencies. Building trust with pet parents is just as important to me as caring for their pets. I provide updates, communicate clearly, and aim to give helpful feedback when needed. My goal is for you to feel completely confident while you’re away and to return to a happy, well-cared-for pet.

“Carlee has been absolutely wonderful with my pup. She always sends photos and a message with how the walks went. She is also super funny telling me the silly things my pup did with her! 😋 she's a great communicator, very flexible with her availability, and very reliable. I never had to worry about my pup in her care. We are very sad to have to let her go for family reasons, but she has offered to help out should we need her again. I highly recommend Carlee for your fur baby's care! 🫶”

About: I have lived with and cared for animals almost my entire life, and I have been told many times that I have a way with animals. All of my dogs have been adopted or rescued, and they all came from situations of abuse, abandonment, or neglect. Every single one of my dogs, with love and training, became amazing, wonderful companions. All any dog wants is simply to know what to do to get love and treats. So I'm a big believer in love and treats. With my dogs, I have used Gentle Leader halter collars to guide them for appropriate behavior during walks and click-treat training to teach them what I want them to do. I don't use harsh words, painful collars, or physical punishment. And with cats, all of my cats have been inside-only cats and utterly spoiled. Of course. Over the years, my cats have trained me well, and I speak fluent feline. I am currently working, but my schedule gives me complete freedom and flexibility. I can easily work around your schedule to care for your pets. I realize that people have different ways of caring for their pets and structuring their pet's home environment. I try to be mindful of how my client wants things done and, of course, careful about their pet's safety at all times.

About: I've taken care of pets outside of my own for about five years; some puppies, some elderly dogs, many cats. I'm always excited to spend time with and take care of new pets and ready to provide whatever they need! I have recently graduated from college and have no current conflicts in my schedule. I am available whenever and for however long you need! My pet care routine typically involves a shorter walk in the morning and a long walk or wander through the park in the evening, but I am flexible and can work with what your pet needs! I have a small fenced portion of the yard and a dog friendly home that your pet can roam around in freely, I also live close to the park and will definitely walk the dogs down there to cool off in the creek if they need it!

“Thank you 😊”

Whether your dog is energetic, anxious, senior, crate-trained, or simply used to a specific routine, I adapt my care to fit their individual needs and personality. I’m especially comfortable with large breeds and high-energy dogs that require confidence, consistency, and attentive handling. My approach is calm, patient, and structured so dogs feel secure while owners feel confident knowing their pet is in capable hands. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is a major decision. Because of that, I prioritize professionalism, communication, and dependable care from start to finish. Owners receive regular updates and photos throughout their booking so they always know how their dog is doing. I have experience with: • Large and giant breeds • High-energy dogs • Senior dogs • Nervous or anxious pets • Crate and kennel routines • Multi-dog households • Long walks and exercise needs My goal is simple: provide a calm, safe, and dependable environment where dogs are genuinely cared for and owners can have complete peace of mind while they’re away. Right now, I have full availability, which allows me to give your pet my full attention and maintain their normal routine as closely as possible. I understand that trusting someone with your home and your pets is a big decision. I take that responsibility seriously and always treat your space and animals with the utmost respect and care. Here’s how I ensure safety and peace of mind: I closely follow all instructions you provide to maintain your pet’s routine I keep a clean, respectful presence in your home I provide regular updates, photos, and communication so you always know how your pet is doing I’m attentive to changes in behavior or health and will notify you immediately if anything seems off I prioritize secure doors, gates, and safe environments at all times My years of experience have built a strong foundation of responsibility, awareness, and genuine care for animals.

About: I have helped out w my friends pets, both dogs & cats throughout the years, I have worked w young & adult animals. With my flexible schedule, I can care for animals per their specific needs. My schedule is flexible since my daily job is a hairdresser, so I can adjust my schedule to fit in needs for each animal individually. I have a small fenced in yard at my home, would prefer to do in clients home, since most animals are more comfortable with that.

About: I’ve pet sat for family friends over short periods of time. My responsibilities included walking dogs, feeding and cleaning up after them. I grew up around cats and dogs and understand the care that they need. I am currently in Chico for the rest of June and all of July. I have a very flexible schedule and am willing to work with clients availability. I don’t have the ability to care for any pets in my own home at the moment but I am more than willing to come to a clients home and care for the pets there. I grew up around smaller animals included dogs and cats. I am comfortable with larger dogs as well.

About: I’ve cared for seniors, puppies, post surgeries, mischievous kitties and extra needy pets of all kinds ☺️ years of working with horses, living with my anxious chihuahua mix, and helping to raise the chunky pitties in my life has prepared me for almost every situation. I’ll keep a cool head and stick to your instructions while showering lots of love on your furry family member. I grew up around cats, dogs, horses, and birds! My love for animals knows no bounds, and I’m always the one getting distracted by a cute dog on the sidewalk (or TikTok). I’ve had great experiences booking care for my own dog through Rover, and I understand how hard it can be to find and trust the right person when we have to be away from them! My hope is that we can work together and create the best plan for keeping your furry kids happy and safe. I keep communication open and often so that we are all comfortable and on the same page. I pay attention and meet your pet where they’re at so we can build our own trusting and loving bond. I work remotely from home, so I can be flexible to meet your needs. My partner and I work together to ensure our own dogs are cared for, comfortable, and get lots of sniffing time outside. I’d love to speak with you about the best way to accommodate your schedule. I prefer to meet with you and your pet before scheduling a service to ensure that everyone is comfortable. I like to take the opportunity to ask any clarifying questions and walk through expectations so that there are no gray areas about the best ways to care for your pet and keep them safe.

About: I will do everything to keep your dog safe, loved and comfortable!! I have taken care of dogs recently, I always make sure to give them the love and attention that they deserve if not more. I understand the feeling of leaving your dog at home while you are away and I want to continue to be the person people feel safe and secure to leave their dog at home or with me. I have a dog that loves too play as well so making friends is never a worry for him. I currently work part time, but after 1pm I am available. I do have some errands I do but doesn’t usually last for more than an hour. I am a student as well and attend online classes on Mondays but it won’t a disturbance. I am available on weekends for boarding or pet sitting at someone’s house as well. I live in a small apartment but have three room in which one isn’t being used. There is a big grassy area behind my apartment that I usually take my dog to and we do lots of long walks. There is plenty of of space for your fur baby and even though I have cats they like to be in one room so they wouldn’t be a bothers

“Excellent walker! Norman was very happy and the walk was brisk enough to help him run out his energy and rest with me. Thank you Forrest! Will call again”

About: Taking care of a dog's physical comfort and well-being makes them happy, which makes me happy! Having grown up with dogs in the house, I started training my own dog at the age of nine. Being my own boss means I create time to be blessed by the presence of your dogs. While housesitting for you, your home and animals are my only concern. In your home, I feed, water, brush, and play with your dogs. If you like, I can also bathe your precious. During our walks we do a little bit of training. Rather than offering treats, I utilize praise as their reward for a job well done.
