About: I have always been the go to person when it comes to pet sitting and dog walking. I have had my own reactive dog for the last 6 years and attend training classes with her every week. Which has helped me learn even more skills when it comes to dog care. I currently only do this. So my schedule is very open. I take my own dog out to play early in the morning because of the summer heat. So once I’ve taken care of mine, I am free! I am comfortable coming to your home. I can either play with your dog at your house, or take them out on a walk. I also love cats and have one of my own. So I am willing to check on cats, give medicine, clean litter boxes, and play.

“Thank you, Alisa, for taking gentle care of Inyo while I was away. Alisa was very kind and vigilant with my aggressive senior pittie. Thanks!”

About: Over the years Ive taken care of a plenty of dogs ranging from different sizes and breeds. Ive cared, bathed, fed, walked multiple of my friends dogs and cats as well as my own. Ive also distributed several different medications to pets of my own. And I truly treat my pets I would family, making sure they have walks daily, good/high quality homemade food, and ensure they are/feel very loved. My oldest dog is 13 so I have experience with elderly doggies too. Im working very minimal days currently so I have free time to care for your animals. I highly enjoy hiking and/or walking and love to do lots of outdoor activities specially with my dog. I am also available on weekends after 2pm if needed. I would highly prefer taking the animal out and about on a walk, hike, etc or caring for the pet in clients home. My doggies at home are not friendly with other dogs and would rather not risk it. I am a highly trustworthy person and am looking for the best interest of your pets.

About: I have grown up with all kinds of animals my entire life. Dogs, Cats, Sheep, Goats, Cows, Pigs, and so much more which gives me a wide variety of experience. I am also studying to be a large animal veterinary with doing my pre requisites at Chico State so I have a growing background in veterinary medicine I am currently in my Junior Year at Chico State so my schedule is interesting but I am still very available. Have breaks in between classes to check on animals and also am willing to stay at homes with animals I am very good with following instructions left by owners for each animal to not break routine. If in my own home I will do my best to make the animal feel comfortable and not have any issues occurring. I am always flexible so I can make whatever work for the animal to make sure they are stress free

“Ted went on his walk. We came home the following morning and it is clear he was well taken care of!”

About: I’ve worked with animals my entire life, but especially in the last 5 years. While taking care of other people’s beloved pets ranging from young to senior pets, I’ve also always had dogs, cats, and other animals of my own. I’m currently a student with a sparse schedule so I will have plenty of time to take care of your beloved animals :) I’m available weekdays and weekends! I have no problems crating animals if needed, along with staying with them outside, taking them on walks, and I’ve worked with reactive dogs in the past.

About: I’ve been exposed to caring for animals all my life as my grandma has run a non profit animal rescue for many years. From volunteering at her shop, to helping her care for animals at home, I’ve done everything from grooming dogs to syringe feeding baby birds! I love helping people and animals alike I have flexible hours with my day job and I’m looking to get some exercise while earning some extra money since my wife and I just had our first baby! I’m open to drop ins and daily walks! My two amazing Boston terriers live with us and have a fenced in back yard that they love to play in. I’m sure they’ll be very curious every time I come home smelling like another dog

About: I work full time as a Behavioral Health and Recovery Services Case Manager. I work from home Monday-Friday, and I am home on the weekends. I had 3 dogs 2 Yorkies and 1 Morkie Maltese/Yorkie. My eldest Yorkie dog died 5 years ago and it broke our hearts. We have her urn on our mantel. I made a promise along with my 28 year old daughter to care for other dogs in her memory. I thought this would be a great way to start. I love pets and am willing to extend that love to others pets. Please make sure that your dogs get along with other dogs. As you know I have one small dog. I do not cage dogs unless the client wants their pet crated. All dogs and cats sleep inside. My home is very clean so I am constantly cleaning after the pets. I am currently working from home, so I am home all day to take care of your fur babies and I will take them out every two-three hours. I have the whole back yard that we can play fetch or they can just relax in the sun like my dogs do. We can also go on walks to the park on the corner. I will always keep water available and follow any special feeding and medication instructions you have.

About: I've looked after pets of all kinds including, cats, dogs, pigs, chickens and ducks to name a few. I have a good 7.5 years of experience under my belt and I have a high attention to detail to make sure that your fuzzy member of the family is getting top quality care. I am available Saturday through Tuesday, as those are my current days off. A typical day with your pet would include walks as many times a day as necessary, meals whenever they are typically had and plenty of play and relaxation throughout the day. If I have a meeting/appointment or need to leave the house for a bit, your pet won't be left alone for more than four hours. When I come to stay with your pet, I'll make it seem as though you never left. I'll do my absolute best to ensure they can continue their daily routines as they always do without skipping a beat. They will receive all the love and care I can muster, including snuggles and hugs a plenty. Making sure they are fed and clean so you can come home to a healthy pet.

About: As an enthusiastic pet lover with a full-time job at a pet store and the proud owner of two adorable cats, I have immersed myself in the world of pet care for years. Growing up with dogs has instilled a deep understanding of canine behavior, while my feline companions have given me unique insights into the needs and quirks of our feline friends. This combined experience allows me to cater to both dogs and cats with the utmost love, attention, and care. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I plan my schedule around your pet’s comfort—ensuring regular potty breaks every 4–8 hours, meals on time, play sessions, and lots of affection. Whether it’s a short visit or a longer stay, I make sure your pets feel relaxed, loved, and well cared for. Compassion First: I treat every pet like family, always prioritizing their comfort, safety, and happiness. Experience Counts: My experience at a pet store and as a multi-pet owner has taught me how to handle a wide range of behaviors, dietary needs, and situations—whether it’s picky eating, anxiety, or energetic zoomies. Tailored Care: I adapt to each pet’s routine, and I’m happy to follow specific feeding schedules, administer medications, or work with special needs pets.

About: My first job at 16 was bathing dogs for Silver Scissors Pet Grooming and assisting with boarding pets at Wild Iris Kennels, both are family businesses so it’s safe to say I was raised in the animal care industry. I’ve been an animal lover since birth, and I believe all pets should feel like they’re on vacation while you’re on yours! I would love to put your mind at ease while you’re away and check in on your furry friends while they reside in the comfort of their own home. I have experience with dogs and cats of all shapes and sizes, and all different breeds/types. I have experience with medication administration and strict dietary restrictions. I work full time from home so I am able to provide early morning, and evening check ins. If needed, I can also provide an afternoon/lunchtime drop in visit I am a very organized, observant, and honest caregiver. I understand firsthand how our pets are equal members of our families and deserve the care and attention you would give to a human family member. I have no problems working under surveillance, or sending regular photos to you of your pets while you’re away. I am available 24/7 and can usually provide near immediate responses to calls/texts.

About: I’ve studied dog behavior and cared for my own two with an attentive focus on meeting their needs to build a bond. I bring calm energy and heightened observation to pick up on cues like hunger, boredom, apprehension, and curiosity. My goal is to use all information provided by the owner to be an effective caretaker. I enjoy dogs in every sense of the word, and hope to build a bond they can rely on when being around me. I am reliable and a prompt responder in owner communications. I am currently available a good percentage of the week as I am typically substitute teaching as a main source of income. During the school year, I am available most weekends (Fri- Sun). My current pets are indoor cats. Both of my dogs lived into their teens but have crossed the rainbow bridge. I have a daily play and engagement routine, a feeding routine, and allow them the space they need to explore or just snooze. When I supervise other pets, I follow the routines defined by the owner and attempt to meet 100% of all pet needs.

About: I’m here to help make sure your pet(s) are cared for when you have a busy day or week. Can’t take your furry friend on vacation? No problem! I can help you out :) If your pet has special requirements, just let me know & I will make sure they feel supported. I have been caring for animals since I can remember... and in the past 15 years started caring for the pets of family, friends, and clients. I have experience with both large and small breeds. Caring for pets fits well with my lifestyle; I enjoy taking pups for walks outside. It’s also a fun break in the day to drop in for a care visit & give your pets some time and attention. When house sitting, I like to make sure your pet gets exercise earlier in the day. This helps improve their mood, appetite, and overall behavior while their usual human is away. We’ll stick to the house rules like mealtimes & furniture preferences, but I mighttt sneak an extra treat in here and there (unless you request I refrain from spoiling.)

About: Ive taken care of dogs, since i could remember. I would provide walking, drop ins, feedings to my neighborhood dogs when they would go on vacation. You go on vacation while your pets will be taken care of the same way you do. I Currently am a stay at home mom. I will be able to provide all care for pets, as well as drop ins, and walks Communication! What ever you would like for me to do i will do it. I provide best care for my pets in my home and farm

“Taylor did a wonderful job walking our two dogs. She was prompt and reliable. She came everyday and took our 8 month old golden doodle to the school playground and threw the ball for her so she could run around. She came every other day and took our 8 year old mix for a walk. She was great. She communicated with me and let me know how the dogs were doing. She helped think of a plan that was the best for the dogs. I will totally use her in the future when I need dog walking/playing services. I feel fortunate to have found her. Thanks Taylor!”

“Kena was great! Definitely would work with her again!”
