“Christina was SO wonderful with Teddy and Archie. They loved her and she sent pics throughout the weekend. Her attentiveness to the pups put us at ease and it was a joy to have her stay at our place. Anyone looking for a caring, mindful sitter - Christina is your gal.”


“Oh boy, what can I say. Erin was great with Paisley!! She was very attentive to her and sent me pics through the day. Paisley is my little fur baby and Erin took great care of her. I will definitely use her in the future and would say to anyone that you can trust her to care for your precious pets. Thank you very much Erin”


“I’m definitely making Jason my go to guy whenever we need to leave our pups. This was our first time using a pet sitter other than family, but after meeting Jason and seeing how great my dogs reacted to him, I had no worries. He kept us updated constantly with pics and kept up on their activity better than even I can sometimes. Jason is amazing and I highly recommend him to care for your pets!”


About: I was raised on a hobby farm, so I have all sorts of experience with animals/pets! I used to have dogs of my own and I now love taking care of others dogs! I am new to Yuba, CA, and currently have an open schedule! I love being able to get outside and go on long walks any time of the day. When taking care of others dogs, I like to use all of the same commands and rules as the dog parent. I am guilty of giving extra treats, but will always focus on what’s best for the pup.

About: I've taken care of dogs, cats, hamsters, and even birds! Animals tend to be very calm around me thanks to my demeanor. This is good because it allows me to provide quality care for them. I am a full time student and I work for a private contractor fabricating and installing granite, tile, and cabinetry. This means I won't be available most work days until at least 5 pm, but after that point I can provide the best care to all pets all the way until the next morning when I would have to leave for school or work again. I can't bring pets to my home but at my clients home, I can provide the best care. Walks, playtime, mentally stimulating games and more!

About: I have over 5 years of hands-on experience caring for a variety of pets, including senior dogs and cats, as well as birds. I understand that every animal has its own personality and needs, especially as they age. I'm patient, gentle, and attentive. Whether it's giving medication, helping an older pet move around comfortably, or just making sure they feel safe and loved. I'm also familiar with the unique care birds require, from daily cleaning to social interaction. Pet parents can feel confident knowing I treat every animal like my own. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine, no matter how busy life gets. I make time every day to feed my indoor cat on a consistent schedule, clean her litter box, and even take her out for walks so she can safely enjoy the outdoors. Caring for animals is something I prioritize because it brings me joy and keeps me grounded. I believe pets thrive on routine and attention, and I make sure to provide both. Whether I’m caring for pets in my own home or a client’s, I always treat them like family. I follow each pet’s routine closely — from feeding schedules and walks to playtime and quiet time. I’ve cared for both cats and dogs, including seniors and special needs pets, and I make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable in their environment. I respect the client’s home and routines, and I’m always attentive to each pet’s individual personality and needs.

About: I’m a huge animal lover of both cats and dogs! I’ve had experience training puppies and also caring, walking, crate training, and maintaining a healthy feeding schedule. I’m open any day of the week at any times and I’m able to come house sit. Most animals are comfortable in their own home so whatever works best for them. I will ensure a safe environment for your pet whether that be crating your pet, keeping a close eye on your pet, and providing them play as a healthy distraction as you arrive.

About: I have taken care of dogs for a few years now. Friends, Family, and neighbors rely on me for their dog needs. I have two male husky dogs of my own. I’m currently working 8:30-5:30 with an hour lunch, but will make time to play/walk your pups! M-F before 7am & after 6pm Weekends after 1 I have a fenced yard and two friendly male huskys. I have extra crates if your dog needs to be crated. I love going on walk with my dogs daily.

About: I have been around cats my entire life. I am quite knowledgeable. I give the best cat cuddles and love. They are safe with me Cat pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine. I am available after 5:30 pm to do drop-in visits. Weekends more availability with time slots While providing pet care in my clients home, I will feed , scoop litter, check water and give all the cuddles a cat could dream of. I will also send photos to my clients of their precious fur babies.

“This was my first time booking Carla’s services. She was awesome with my puppy! I was nervous leaving him for the first time but everything went so smoothly. She was very communicative and responsive throughout the evening. She did great with my goldendoodle pup. I would definitely book with Carla again!”

“Misty was great, everything we could have hoped for. Jake, Shado, and the kitties couldn’t have been happier. Would definitely recommend Misty if you’re wanting a worry free vacation.”


About: I have been around and taken care of animals since I was a child. I’ve always been told that I “have a way” with animals. My family and friends rely on me to take care of their fur babies while they’re away. Also, I just really want to spend time with your pets. Just don’t tell my cat. I am currently working full time but I only work 3 days a week. So that gives me extra time to do other things. I get my work schedule a month in advance. I am pretty flexible and am willing to work with your needs. I will not be able to bring your pet to my home because I live in an apartment and I don’t think my cats would like that very much. However, I am able to go to your home or a park nearby. Whatever is needed and best for your pets wellbeing.

About: I’m able to give your pets the care they usually have (if not more) while you’re away! As a patient owner of a pup myself, I can’t wait to take care of your pet. A fenced in backyard to play in, with plenty of shade and water. I’m a stay at home wife who is always with her pup Ruby. Constantly running around and playing outside takes up most of my day. Going on walks or playing in the sprinkler on hot days are how we cool off. Pets in my home can expect to roam around our fenced in backyard, hardwood floors with nothing around, and a safe space. They can enjoy the doggy door for when they need to go out. An abundance of toys and room, we can’t wait to host your pets!

“Kaylee was amazing! She was so good overnight with our 2 large huskies. She communicated and sent us pics while we were gone, she truly cares about our pups and went the extra mile to get one of our more stubborn cats inside for the night when it was cold! We will be calling Kaylee again for sure. The pups loved her!!!”

“Emily has cared for my dog Butters for the past year, and I couldn’t ask for a better pet sitter. She goes above and beyond, whether it’s taking Butters on long walks, sending me sweet photo updates, or making sure he’s comfortable and happy while I’m away. It’s clear how much she genuinely loves animals. I fully trust her with Butters and feel completely at ease knowing he’s in her care.
