1. Shannon M.


“Shannon - can’t thank you enough for caring for Abby this past weekend. So glad we met! Abby was so content when we came home. I’ll send you some more dates :). Highly recommend Shannon to care for your fur babies - great communication and sharing while we we’re away.”


2. Lauren Z.

“Lauren was phenomenal. She came twice prior to the house sitting to meet my dog so he would be familiar with her. She was in consistent contact during the duration of my trip just to let me know how my fur babies were doing. If she left the apartment she would let me know when she left and when she returned. I greatly appreciated the photos throughout the trip as well. Highly recommend her services and will book again when needed!”


3. Bayleigh M.
“Bayleigh is an incredibly caring and dependable animal lover who has helped us numerous times with both of our dogs while we travel. She is attentive to their needs, provides plenty of love and affection, and always ensures they are happy and comfortable. Her reliability and passion for animals give us complete peace of mind when leaving our pets in her care! We couldn’t recommend Bayleigh more for anyone looking for a pet caregiver!”


4. Tess T.

“Tess was an absolute joy to have stay with my dogs. I know she did a great job, if only because my shadow dog refuses to go on walks with anyone but me, and she walked with Tess! My house was left in great condition and I felt secure in the knowledge that my dogs were being loved on and treasured the entire time I was gone. I would have Tess back again in a heartbeat. My dogs loved her, and her love of dogs was evident.”

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.


7. Paige H.
“Paige is the best! She is very responsible and is a great communicator. The animals LOVE her. She is so sweet and is very responsive to my animals needs, giving them the attention and care they need. Never disappointed with Paige. I feel safe knowing my animals are in good hands with Paige. I would highly recommend her!”


8. Jessica H.
“Jessica has that special way with animals. She has since she was three years old. Horses, dogs, any animal seems to be drawn to her because of her gentle kind way. She has owned dogs and horses the majority of her 28 years of life and, she has such a big heart for homeless and rescue animals especially. She rescued a dog several years ago that was found on the side of the road in a plastic bag. He has become her soulmate in many ways. She has cared for him and loved him and given him the very best home possible. She just has a natural ability and love for animals and the animals know it!”


9. Haylie G.

“Haylie was great with our young puppy and cat while we were gone for a long weekend. She was communicative, engaged, and so easy-going. It was great to feel comfortable knowing our fur babies were well cared for while we were away. We will definitely book her again.”


10. Lilli K.
About: Fun Fact: all of my childhood cats used the toilet Lover of all shapes sizes breeds. Comfortable with high levels of reactivity, even more comfortable with high levels of cuddles. I am studying child development at Chico state, I work at a retirement home, and I dog/cat/baby/house sit. I have always had my own cats. I raised a husky from rescue 🩷 I have experience in all sorts of care, and services. Keeping the house tidy is my specialty. Patience and love is all you need, and maybe a treat. Cuddles are mandatory. Keep that water bowl filled!! Getting energy out with a long walk, or throwing a ball.
11. Marisela V.
“Marisela helped watch my 2 year old German shorthair pointer who is on daily medication & full of energy. She was more than willing to take Sadie on daily walks & even played ball with her in the yard daily. I didn't have to worry about whether Sadie got her medication or if she was given love. Marisela kept me updated daily with how she was doing. I highly recommend her for your animal sitting needs she truly has a passion for animals.”


12. Jason H.

“I can always count on Jason to make sure that my pups and cats are taken care of. One of my dogs has a history of abuse from a previous owner, and therefore can be pretty nervous towards strangers. However, after a meet-n-greet, my pup was so excited to see that his pal Jason would be taking care of him! Love getting pics and videos everyday, and even though Jason got sick towards the end of his stay with us, he still completed the job and made sure that all of my animals were taken care of before he went home. I even came home to a clean house! Thanks, Jason, we hope you feel better soon!”


13. solomon g.
“Solomon was fantastic as our pet sitter! He looked after our Labrador, Rusty, for a week, and we were really pleased. He was easy to talk to from the start, and Rusty warmed up to him right away. Solomon sent us a few photos and quick updates showing Rusty playing in the yard or chilling on the couch, which helped us relax knowing he was doing great. He stuck to Rusty’s feeding and walk routine, even taking him out a bit longer to wear him out. The house was clean when we got back, and Rusty was his happy self. Solomon clearly cares about dogs and was super reliable, we’ll definitely ask him to watch Rusty again!”


14. Theresa P.
“I have know Theresa for many years and throughout that tim we have gotten to know one of the most caring and loving people. She has a soft spot in her heart for every animal. I have no doubt in my mind that she will care for every pet with all the love and care she lives her life with.”

18. Robabeh B.
About: I’ve been pet sitting for friends for three years. Pets feel safe around me, and I enjoy caring for them, playing, and keeping them happy. As a part-time lecturer, I have a flexible schedule and am looking to make meaningful use of my remaining time by offering reliable and attentive pet care. I’m available every day and can easily adjust to your specific needs and schedule. I prefer walking dogs on a leash and keeping them close to me for safety. I don’t allow them outside without supervision and maintain consistent routines to help them feel secure.


19. Shelsy N.
About: I’ve been caring for pets for over 10 years, building a strong bond with every furry friend I meet. From dogs and cats to small animals, I treat each pet like they’re my own, offering a mix of love, attention, and personalized care. I’ve had the privilege of looking after my neighbors’ pets, who always recommend me for my sweet and gentle approach. Whether it’s a playful pup needing extra attention or a shy cat who loves quiet company, I know how to make them feel safe, happy, and loved. With my experience and kind nature, you can trust that your pet will be well cared for while you’re away! I currently work as a babysitter a few days a week, not every day. I will start college in August so as of now I have plenty of time of my own. I decided to use my free time to start taking care of pets. This will help me make money to pay for future college expenses. I also want to gain even more experience than the one I have. I always like learning more about dogs and animals, plus I really enjoy it. I have a dog at home, he is mostly an indoor dog. I have a fenced yard, this makes it easier when he goes outside since I know he will be safe. When it comes to a clients home, I make sure that the pet is always safe whether it is inside or outdoors. Safety is my top priority when it comes to taking care of the pet. Depending on the service offered, I always make sure the pet feels safe with me and in the place it is in. I will also always make sure their food and water is clean and safe to eat, which is something that is also very important for the pets internal safety.
