“As always Panda came home well taken care of. The peace of mind to have my fur baby stay with Tylyn is priceless! Tylyn always provides updates throughout the day and I never have to ask for them. Panda is so excited to see her every time I drop her off which is a comforting sign. 10/10 I would recommend Tylyn’s services <3”

About: Hi! We’re Brittany and Chris, and we’ve been dog people our entire lives. We know that leaving your pup with someone else can be a big leap of trust — they’re family, after all! Our goal is to give you peace of mind while making sure your dog feels right at home with us. We’ve both grown up with dogs and most recently had the joy of caring for our beloved Border Collie, Charley, through his senior years. We understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and quirks, and we’re happy to follow whatever helps your pup feel comfortable and cared for. Our home is clean, cozy, and very dog-friendly. We’re big fans of couch cuddles, playtime, and having a pup happily hanging out alongside us. If your dog thinks the best place in the house is curled up on the couch or snuggled in bed with their people, they’ll fit right in here! We have a securely fenced backyard for safe outdoor play, but your pup will never be left outside unsupervised. We’re also within walking distance of beautiful Bidwell Park, so there are plenty of opportunities for walks, exploring, and fresh air. I work from home, which means your dog will have lots of company throughout the day and won’t be left alone for long stretches. We’ll give your pup plenty of love, attention, playtime, and, of course, as many cuddles as they’re willing to accept. We’d love to get to know you and your four-legged family member and make their stay with us feel like a home away from home! Brittany works from home and has a very flexible schedule so can spend all day with your dog. We are happy to modify our daily routines to accommodate your dogs's normal walking and feeding schedule so they feel right at home. We can also accommodate last minute bookings. Your pup’s safety and comfort are our top priorities. We have a securely fenced yard where your dog can enjoy outdoor time, but we will always supervise them while they’re outside. Inside, they’re welcome to make themselves completely at home — including cuddling up on the couch or sleeping on the bed with us. We only host one family’s dogs at a time, so your pup gets our full attention without having to share our home with unfamiliar dogs. We also do not have children, creating a calm and comfortable environment where your dog can settle in and feel at ease. We’ll follow your pup’s routines, preferences, and house rules as closely as possible so they feel safe, happy, and well cared for throughout their stay.

About: I’ve been taking care of pets as a job since I was 10. However, I have grown up from birth around many different animals in my household. Ranging from dogs to turtles, I’ve had it all! I am a college student looking for any work I can get! I currently have a very open, flexible schedule and am willing to work around yours too! Growing up around pets my whole life, I have many tricks and solutions to get dogs to listen in order to assure their safety with me.

“She was absolutely amazing with my pup! She followed his routine, gave plenty of playtime and attention, and sent me lots of photos and updates, which I really appreciated. He had a great time playing with her dogs too! I felt completely comfortable knowing they were in such good hands. I would highly recommend her if your looking for such amazing care.”

“Oso was very happy when I picked him up. I received many happy pictures and updates along the way. He had doggy friends to play with and nice outdoor space for fun. Mary was wonderful. Thank you.”

About: I had my own cat named Jesse for 16 years. He was the love of my life. My best friend, child and ruled the home. I work as a caregiver part time so I make my own schedule. I am home most of the time available to give loving attention. I live in a very pet friendly community with a large courtyard. Many dogs and cats live here. California Park Lake is across the street.

About: If I am watching your pet for more than a day, I will absolutely crochet them a fun hat or accessory! I’ve always been comfortable around animals and genuinely love spending time with them. I’m patient, attentive, and good at picking up on an animal’s individual personality, routine, and comfort level. I’m reliable with schedules and details, so feeding times, medications, walks, check-ins, and special instructions are taken seriously. I’m also happy to send regular photos and updates so you know how your pet is doing while you’re away. I’m comfortable with pets who are energetic, shy, anxious, goofy, or just very particular about how they like things done. My goal is to keep their routine as normal and low-stress as possible and make sure they feel safe, cared for. I’m comfortable administering medications and have experience with both oral and injectable medications. I’m attentive to dosing instructions, timing, and making the process as calm and low-stress as possible. I’m also genuinely excited about dog walking. I’m working on being more active myself, so your dog gets a reliable walking buddy and I get an enthusiastic accountability partner. I’m happy to adjust the pace and length to your dog’s age, energy level, and usual routine—whether that means a relaxed sniff-heavy stroll or a longer, more active walk. I work a consistent full-time schedule, with quite a bit of flexibility throughout the day. It makes it easy for me to plan pet care reliably throughout and around my work hours. My work hours are 6:00am-2:30 pm Tuesday - Saturday. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and other care, and I’m happy to coordinate a routine that works well for both you and your pet. I value consistency and punctuality, especially when pets are used to a specific feeding, walking, or medication schedule I live in a pet-friendly apartment near lots of walking trails. I currently don’t have any pets in the home(unless you count a shrimp 🦐) I take pet care instructions seriously and always try to keep your pet’s routine as familiar and low stress as possible. I pay close attention to feeding instructions, medications, behavior, doors and gates, leash safety, and anything else you want handled a particular way. I’m respectful of your home and your pet’s boundaries, and I won’t force interaction with a nervous or shy animal. I’m also happy to send photos and updates during visits so you know how things are going.

“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!”

About: I volunteered at Haven Humane Society in Redding for three years, where I gained a lot of experience caring for both cats and dogs. While I was there, I helped clean and sanitize their areas, walked dogs, and spent time socializing with the cats. In my personal life, I have a kitty who is my pride and joy! He does well with other animals and has definitely made my love for animals even stronger. I also had a dog who recently passed away. I had her since she was a puppy and helped train and care for her throughout her life, so I’m very familiar with the puppy world and all the patience and attention that comes with it! I’ve always loved animals and know how important it is to have someone you trust taking care of your pets. I would treat every pet I care for like they were my own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m currently a student at Butte College, so my schedule gives me plenty of time to care for and spend time with your furry friends! I usually have classes in the mornings, so most afternoons and evenings are free. This gives me lots of time for walks, playtime, feeding, check-ins, and making sure your pets get plenty of attention throughout the day. My schedule is pretty flexible, and I’m happy to work with you and your pet’s normal routine! I know how important it is to trust the person taking care of your pets, so I’ll always do my best to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re with me. For boarding, I’ll make sure your pet has a comfortable and safe space in my home, along with plenty of attention, playtime, and potty breaks. I do have a cat of my own who does well with other animals, so I will always make sure everyone is introduced safely and is comfortable around each other. For dog walking, I’ll make sure your dog is secure on their leash and follow any instructions you have for their walks. When caring for pets in your home, I’ll respect your space, follow your pet’s normal routine, and make sure everything is clean and secure before I leave. I’m also more than happy to send pictures and updates while your pet is with me because I know how nice it is to know your furry friend is safe and being taken care of!

“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!”

“Lynette was nothing less than fantastic. Scout was happily exhausted and seems to have made some new friends. Lynette sent frequent updates and let us share in the fun with pictures.”

Mark H.

“Lesly was great with our Dog JJ. He was apparently very comfortable at her place and got lots of attention. She even Texted us several photos of him and he didn’t show any symptoms of separation anxiety, that we were worried about. Great Sitter!”
