About: I will take care of your pet as if It was my own. I'm available practically full time. I trained my 4 dogs to be in crates and to sit and walk on leashes.I love dogs and honestly wish I had more than what I have. that's why I would do the best to take care of yours and keep them happy! I wont do a thing to harm them, also If I'm allowed I will give them baths ( no extra cost ) , so they can go home nice and pretty , smelling good! Have a good day! Thank you for considering my service! I’m a part time student for online , so I basically have my own schedule for homework and things like that. So all my attention would be on the pets. I have two pets at home and have grown up around pets all my life. If I’m needed to stop by my clients home I would do so and follow all directions.

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 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.

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

About: Animals have always held a special place in my heart as I have had several dogs since I was born that were all well loved. I offer loving, reliable care with plenty of play, cuddles, and attention to your pet’s needs. Whether it’s a walk, a weekend stay, or just some company while you're away, I treat every animal like my own. With experience, patience, and a calming presence, your pets will be in safe, happy hands if you decide to choose me to be your sitter. I currently have a lot of availability as I am not in school, but without a job. Thursdays I dont have any method of transportation other than walking or biking so I will only accept walking distance jobs on those days. I'm available any time between 10am and 7pm for non-overnight jobs. When caring for someones fur baby, I make sure to follow the owner's instructions carefully, keeping the pet’s routine consistent. I provide fresh food and water, ensure plenty of playtime, walks, or cuddles depending on their needs, and keep their environment clean and safe. I also send regular updates and photos to reassure the owner. Most importantly, I treat their pet as if they were my own, giving them love, patience, and attention throughout my stay.

About: I currently work at Hightest kennels part time. I’ve also fostered 14 dogs/puppies for Hightest kennels. I am very good at taking care of dogs at all ages. I also follow your instructions very well. I have taken care of puppies, dogs with disabilities and, senior dogs. I have potted trained many dogs and have been successful every time. I am very patient with animals. I am also going to school to become a veterinary assistant. I am currently working part-time at Hightest kennels I would be able to work after Hightest and on my days off. I usually work 2-3 days a week. I will fit pet care in whenever I am not at work. At my home I have two labs that love being around other animals. I have a fenced in area for my dogs to give them time outside. In a client’s home I want to know if your dog has a routine and keep your pet on their routine. I take my pets out many times a day if they are not in their fenced in area. I can also create my dogs if wanted.

About: I have always had a great love for animals. I have a lot of energy and it would be great to be able to use some of that energy to care for others’ pets. I have two energetic border collie/ aussies and I have experience taking care of Great Danes, puppies, and elderly pets who need medication. I am very flexible with my schedule as I am a stay at home mother at this time of my life. I am strong and able bodied and can handle large/ strong dogs. If I sound like a good match for your fur baby please let me know if I can help with walks or drop in visits! My schedule is very open as my main job at this point in my life is being a mom. My two young boys will be watched by a family member while I attend your pet(s). I take caring for others’ pets very seriously and I will keep to their regular schedule. I know how important routine is for pets! I always leave any where I go a little better than I found it and I deeply appreciate clients’ opening up their home to me.

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: I have been an animal lover my entire life. I have taken care of so many different animals, from dogs, cats, birds, rabbits, reptiles, farm animals, and wildlife. I currently work at a doggy daycare and boarding facility and have a year of experience caring for multiple different types of dog breeds, cats and birds. I also grew up raising and showing sheep in 4H and FFA for about 9 years, so taking care of animals has always been something that I enjoy doing. I am currently working part-time, so I will have plenty of time to play and care for your fur babies! Just send me a message and we can discuss further details. I am able to do drop in visits and on some days, daycare in my clients homes. I can play with your pups, spend some cuddle time with them, give baths, go on walks, clean crates, kennels and any accidents if they happen to have any. I am a trustworthy, compassionate, reliable and responsible person especially when it comes to animals, so you can count on me to keep your fur babies safe while you’re away.

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.)

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

“Sofia has been great from the get-go! She responds quickly to requests, communicates well about her schedule, and is always on time. On top of that, she is very kind and caring with Gretel and Gretel’s humans. I can’t say enough good things about Sofia!”

About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was 14, starting with horses and gradually expanding to dogs and cats. In recent years, I’ve mainly focused on house sitting and pet care. I’m comfortable handling a range of behavioral challenges, including pets who tend to run off or show signs of aggression. I also have experience with dogs that require strict health routines, such as medications, special diets, and regular care schedules. I aim to create a calm, safe environment for every pet I care for—and treat each one with the same attention and love I’d give my own. I’m based in Oroville and work full time (never earlier than 8am and no later than 6:30pm), but am available for pet sitting any day of the week! I’m free all day on Tuesdays and Thursdays for walking, feeding, and giving your pets the attention they deserve. Whether you need a quick check-in or some extra company! I am deeply attentive to the unique needs of every pet in my care, always striving to meet and exceed the expectations of their owners. Each animal is treated with the same love, patience, and respect I give my own pets. My passion for animals runs deep—so much so that I’m currently studying to become a veterinary technician to further my ability to provide the highest standard of care. Whether it’s a playful pup or a senior cat, I ensure every pet feels safe, loved, and well looked after.

About: Experienced pet sitter, and hobby farmer! I’ve taken care of other peoples animals, ranches and farms (chickens, cows, pigs, dogs, bunnies and cats) for over 10 years. I now have cows, bunnies, dogs, cats, and chickens of my own! I have experience with live-stock guardian pets, high energy pets, and the calmest of calm animals. I have experience with animals with anxiety, resource guarding issues, behavioral issues, puppies, senior animals and so much more. Your animals will be treated just like my own, with love, respect and understanding! I am sometimes unavailable Tuesdays and Thursdays, but always feel free to ask about a particular Tuesday or Thursday and I may be able to schedule with you! I am incredibly flexible so whatever you need me for, I’m there! Feel free to ask any questions about schedules, while I’m with your pet they will have my complete attention. I don’t currently offer boarding since one of my dogs isn’t neutered. Your pets safety is my biggest priority! I want to care for your pets in the ways you do, to insure they’re as comfortable as possible while you’re away. I am open to any schedule, services, and needs your pet has!

“Jason is awesome! I'm so glad I found him. My super energetic fur baby is always nice and tired out after her walks. She's in good hands. Thanks for everything.”

About: I come from a family of animal lovers and have always been surrounded by either a new puppy, an elder dog, or a dog in their prime just looking to have fun. A lifetime of experience, and 7+ years of professional experience, has introduced me to dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I have no problem with shy guys, energetic puppies, or elder dogs who just need a friend. I have the tools and knowledge to care for dogs all across the board, and not only that, but I love each dog with all my heart and treat them with the utmost respect. I can’t wait to meet your fur baby! I have a very flexible schedule, and do remote work. I can easily work with you and your schedule to come to your home to watch your pet, or pick up for pet for the day etc. I have a large fenced in yard to watch your pet for the day if they come to me. I am great at following any specific instructions and can also walk your dog throughout the day down our dead end road. If you are looking for someone to come to your home, I follow everything closely, and love working with your and your pet so everyone is happy and comfortable!

About: I have taken care of dogs for years, but I got my own pup 5 years ago that I have cared for ever since. Since then I have also potty trained a pup fully on my own. My family has had two litters of puppies in the past couple years that I also took part in caring for. I’ve been trusted by family and friends alike to care for their furry friends. I also have a couple years of veterinary science experience from high school, and can perform basic tasks such as administering medication, ear drops, eye drops, and even basic vaccinations (kennel cough or others available for over the counter purchase at tractor supply.) I currently own XL-bullies, so I have plenty experience with large dogs as well as small ones. I have experience with many farm animals as well. I work a part time job and I am also taking online college classes. I have plenty of time outside of work and class to drop by and feed or play with pets, as well as take them on a nice walk if needed. I love to comfort and care for pets where they feel most comfortable, in their own home. This ensures the pet is most happy and safe while you’re away, and they can still have some company or a spare human to feed them or walk them!

About: Love dogs, always walking and loving on them. I always treat them like my own and will do whatever is needed for you to feel safe with them in my care I am available anytime time of day. I will answer any questions that you may have to make you as comfortable as possible with your babies in my care I will walk your babies for as long as requested in your area. I will have water for them if they need it and will do whatever is needed
