“Nancy is amazing! My 9 month old puppy Arlo is a pitbull and pretty energetic he’s a big boy too and she loved on him so much. He stayed two days. Nancy sent me pictures and updated me so I wouldn’t worry. She has a huge fenced back yard my dog was able to play but also come in and nap on her furniture. When I picked him up he was happy as a clam! I would recommend and use Nancy again for sure! I thank her for treating my dog as her own.”

About: Hi! I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life and have experience caring for multiple pets at once, including different breeds, ages, and personalities. I’m comfortable adapting to each pet’s unique needs and routines. I work remotely, which means your pet will have constant supervision, and attention throughout the day. I treat every pet how I would want mine treated and strive to provide a calm, loving environment while you’re away. I work from home and have for over 5 years. This allowed the time to really watch over your pet and being able to handle anything they need. I have a fenced in small back yard. My apartment also offers locations to walk dogs and allow them to poop and get some extra room.

“Our dog Charlie had a wonderful stay with Ashley. She is our “go to “ sitter because she cares for Charlie like we do. I highly recommend her services to anyone who wants quality care for their dog.”

“Jess was a wonderful host and her property is a perfect dog retreat. Jess sent regular updates and photos showing how happy my dog was. My dog got lots of exercise and attention. He loved hanging with her dog and her family. Jess also has a lot of dog experience as a breeder which I appreciated. Thank you so much Jess!”

“Lorrie was great. She was quick to respond and was flexible when we needed to change our days. She sent plenty of pictures and videos, showing us that our Phoebe was having a great time with the other dogs and enjoying her freedom on the property. It was like a retreat for our girl! We felt very safe with Phoebe in Lorries care and would love for her to return as needed.”

About: I have been around dogs my entire life and have over 20 years of experience caring for my own dogs as well as dogs belonging to family, friends, and neighbors. I truly love animals and understand how important it is to know your dog is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I provide lots of attention, affection, playtime, daily walks, and outdoor time in our large, securely fenced backyard. I’m also happy to follow your dog’s normal feeding, sleeping, and care routine so they can feel as comfortable and at home as possible. Your dog will be treated like part of our family while they’re here. I currently work as a substitute teacher about 1–2 days per week, so I am home most days and evenings. This gives me plenty of time to give your dog lots of attention, playtime, potty breaks, and exercise. I also plan to take dogs in my care on a daily walk and make sure they get plenty of love and attention throughout their stay. I have a large, securely fenced backyard with plenty of room for dogs to run, play, and enjoy time outside. I also have friendly dogs of my own, so visiting dogs can have companionship and playtime when appropriate. I will always follow your dog’s normal feeding, sleeping, and care routine as closely as possible. I’m happy to accommodate crates if needed and will make sure your dog receives plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while staying with us.

About: Hi! A little about my pet-care experience: I’ve been caring for my own pets, as well as my neighbors’ animals, since I was a child. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, fish, hamsters, and mice, and I also have some experience caring for cows and chickens. I’m comfortable administering medications to dogs, including pills, liquids, nasal drops, and topical medications. I also have experience caring for senior dogs, as I currently have two senior dogs of my own. I understand the extra patience, attention, and care that senior pets may need. I truly enjoy spending time with animals and will treat your pets like they’re my own! 🐾 I work from home and run an online business so I have plenty of time to checkin, play with, walk, and snuggle your fur babies. I am flexible with hours and open to a long term set schedule. I am open to caring for dogs in my home depending on size, breed, and demeanor. I have two small senior dogs who aren’t in the mood for high energy at this time in their life. I do have a fully fenced yard with grass, lots of shade, and a small doggy door to go in and out as they please (if they fit). I’m walking distance to the river trail and Caldwell Park. Please reach out for inquiries and questions regarding overnights. In your home, you can expect respect and care for your space and your animal(s). I will follow your instructions and cater to your animal(s) needs, whether that be walks, play time, medications administered, food, accident clean up, or snuggles..or possibly all of the above :)

“Jennifer is really nice and accommodating. She even took care of our pit Jada with short notice. She provided daily updates for Jada including photos of their activities. We found the perfect dogsitter for Jada in the Redding area, and we look forward to her dogsitting Jada in the near future. Thanks again Jennifer!”

About: I have had a dog since I was born. I started caring for my dog by the age of five. Then, I did overnights with a diabetic dog, with whom I had to administer medicine. Now, I have two dogs of my own who are very special. I currently work from home, so pet care fits in seamlessly with my routine. I also have a fenced-in yard, so potty breaks can be taken frequently. I am very attentive with care for pets in my home, and I’m my clients home. I always ensure there is fresh food and water. I make sure they have toys or chew toys to keep them occupied. I am always available to take time to play, and go on potty breaks.

“Isaiah took great care of our golden, Tuck, while we were away on the east coast for a long weekend. We felt so much better leaving him with someone we felt we could trust and we wouldn't hesitate to reach out next time we leave town. Everything was handled professionally and you could tell Isaiah loves and cares about the animals as if they were his own. you will be happy you left your pet with him for sure. thank you!!!”

About: Hi! I’m a caring, responsible, and attentive pet lover who truly enjoys spending time with animals and making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their families are away. 🐾 I have hands-on experience caring for both dogs and cats. I currently have three dogs of my own, including Sage, whom I rescued, and I’ve also cared for a rescued cat for several years. Living with multiple pets has given me plenty of experience with different personalities, energy levels, routines, and individual needs. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, keeping pets on their normal routines, and providing plenty of companionship and attention. I understand how important consistency and patience are, especially when a pet is in a new environment or away from their family. I currently work remotely, which gives me flexibility and allows me to spend quality time with pets throughout the day. I’m happy to follow your pet’s routine and any specific instructions you provide, because I know every pet is different. My goal is to give you peace of mind while you’re away and to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I’ll treat your pets with the same patience, kindness, and respect I give my own. I can’t wait to meet your furry family members! 🐶🐱🤎 I work remotely, so I have a flexible schedule and am happy to welcome your furry friends into my routine. I’m available weekdays and weekends, with plenty of time to give your pets the attention, care, and companionship they deserve. 🐾🤎 Whether your pet stays in my home or I care for them in your home, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved.

“We cannot recommend Jared highly enough. From our very first interaction, his attention to detail and professionalism set him apart. He took the time to ask thoughtful, specific questions about our dog’s routines, preferences, quirks, and health history—everything from feeding schedules and portion sizes to behavioral cues and comfort habits. It was clear he wasn’t just “watching a dog”; they were committed to understanding and caring for our dog. Communication was exceptional throughout. We received consistent updates—photos, positive words about our dog’s behavior and how much he enjoyed watching our dog. Every message reassured us that our dog was not only safe, but genuinely happy and engaged. His knowledge of dog care was evident in both small and significant ways. He demonstrated confidence in handling, situational awareness on walks, and an understanding of canine behavior that gave us complete peace of mind. He was proactive rather than reactive, anticipating needs before they became issues. Our dog can be particular, yet he adapted seamlessly and respected established routines while building trust. What truly stood out was his authenticity. There was nothing transactional about his care—it was thoughtful, warm, and sincere. You can tell when someone genuinely loves animals, and that sincerity showed in every interaction. If you are looking for someone who blends professionalism, knowledge, attentiveness, and heartfelt care, his is extraordinary. We feel incredibly fortunate to have found him and highly recommend Jared to anyone looking for an outstanding pet sitter.”

“Jean is super sweet and accommodating. She sent lots of photos and updates and took really great care of our border collies. Jean has a lovely space with a big, fenced backyard and two dogs of her own that are very friendly! I would definitely recommend and book again 🙂”

Jessica K.

About: I have hands‑on experience caring for both cats and dogs with a wide range of personalities, routines, and needs. My approach is calm, observant, and patient — I let each pet set the pace and make sure they feel safe and comfortable from the moment I arrive. For cats, I’m especially familiar with senior care, mobility challenges, and monitoring litter box habits. I’m comfortable supporting shy or anxious cats, administering oral medications, and keeping a clean, low‑stress environment. I also have light medical experience specifically with cats like giving prescription injections and giving subcutaneous fluids when needed and directed by a vet. For dogs, I’m experienced with structured routines, leash handling, feeding schedules, and reading body language to keep walks and visits smooth and positive. I’m attentive to energy levels, comfort cues, and any changes in behavior. I have an enclosed backyard for outside time if they like, and a great walking path in the neighborhood for walks. I’m reliable, detail‑oriented, and committed to giving every pet the same level of care and respect I give my own. You’ll receive clear updates, honest communication, and photos so you always know how your pet is doing while you’re away. Whether your pet is playful, independent, senior, or needs a little extra support, I’m here to provide steady, worry‑free care tailored to their needs. I am very flexible when it comes to scheduling. I can be available for full time or part time, one time or several. Just talk to me about my availability I provide calm, attentive, and safety‑focused care whether I’m visiting your home or welcoming your pet into mine. My goal is always to create a predictable, low‑stress environment where your pet feels secure and understood. In your home: I follow your routines exactly as you describe them, feeding schedules, walking routes, litter box setup, household rules, and any special instructions. I keep doors and gates secured, double‑check that pets can’t slip out, and maintain a clean environment throughout each visit. I pay close attention to behavior, appetite, and comfort so I can spot changes early and communicate them to you. For cats: I move slowly, respect boundaries, and let them approach on their terms. I’m experienced with senior cats, mobility challenges, and monitoring litter box habits. I keep their space tidy, refresh water and food carefully, and maintain a calm atmosphere that helps shy or anxious cats feel safe. For dogs: I use steady, confident leash handling, stick to familiar walking routes, and avoid overstimulation. I watch body language closely, support positive behavior, and make sure they get the right balance of exercise, structure, and comfort. Safety is always the priority, secure harnesses, controlled entrances/exits, and mindful interactions. Communication & trust: You’ll receive clear updates, honest notes, and photos every visit, so you always know how your pet is doing. I treat every pet with the same care and respect I give my own, and I work to make each visit predictable, safe, and worry‑free.

About: I grew up with dogs. I have been living in a house now with 4 Shih Tzus ranging from 1.5 years old up to 16. I've gone through potty training all the way to eye drops. I am also owned by 5 cats so I am well versed in litter boxes and finicky eaters. I work full time Saturday through Wednesdays from 7am to 3pm. My housemate and partner works Monday through Friday from 8am to 5pm. There is almost always someone home to take care of the dogs. It is no issue for me to stop by before and after work for potties and so on. I am pretty much a low key person so hanging with the fur kids is about as exciting as I get. When I am sitting in someone's house I like to spend time with the pet. I make sure that when I leave the house I secure the doors, windows, etc. I am respectful of belongings and space. I like to make the fur kids feel like nothing is all that different as much as possible. If I'm just dropping in for walks/potty time I like to spend time with them for their comfort and stimulation. I'll make sure water is refreshed and food is full and boxes are emptied.

About: I grew up on a farm in the mountains. It introduced my love and experience for animals and the immense gratification involved. Since moving away I have took in many animals both to do my part personally in my home and giving the opportunity for others to have the same by rehabbing, sheltering and finding their forever homes. It has always been my dream to open a shelter, or even more fun a cat cafe. I am excited for the opportunity to share my love with your furbabies and am appreciative for the consideration. I am an entrepreneur from home so my schedule is very open. I am aware how hectic life can be and hope to take some of that weight off your shoulders. My cats are spoiled rotten. They are given wet food once a day on top of their dry food. They have their own room full of windows, an electric litter box and a door to their massive catio outside. As well as access to the rest of the home as given. They are given medications as needed and I use Dutch vet service to assist in staying on top of their general health. When it comes to your animals I will offer the same love and attention as I give mine while following the regimens given. As far as watching your animals in my home it will vary according to the needs and comfort of the animals I am watching.

About: I have worked as a detection dog handler and gun dog handler for a few years now. I have also trained my own dog to complete multiple tasks for different purposes. I know how to get your pup tired mentally and physically while having fun and have the patience necessary to help them learn new tricks and become familiar with a new place! I have a flexible work schedule so rest assured that your pup will get plenty of exercise and will play fun games throughout the day! I also live very close to a fenced tennis court (if your pup is into tennis balls and fetching) and a fenced park with soccer fields. I provide a safe and clean environment with a fenced yard and a friendly and playful dog to keep your pup company. I have an extra crate (size XL) if your pup is crated-trained. I also have lots of room to accommodate your own crate inside my living room. I have a doggie treadmill (Dog Trotter USA Inc), which we use to keep our dog active during very hot weather, and can use for your pup as well if interested! I always follow the owner’s instructions closely. Dogs are never unattended for long periods of time, and I always monitor them to make sure they’re feeling safe and comfortable at all times.
