“Claire was awesome about watching my animals again! We had to add another dog to the lineup last minute but Claire was so flexible & it was such a relief knowing my babies were in good hands. Definitely will be booking with Claire again!”
“Alyson was fantastic. We have three dogs, two of which are older and she took amazing care of them. She administered medicine, gave us constant status updates and took care of our pets and home as it if was hers. She will definitely be our sitter moving forward and can't say enough good things about her.”
“Jason was amazing with our pups, Skye and Scout. He sent us so many videos and pictures while we were gone - this is one of the few times I did not feel anxious about leaving our fur babies! Skye and Scout definitely got spoiled by the amount of walks they got with Jason (I actually think they missed him when we arrived back home haha!). He communicated with us efficiently and also kept our house looking great when we got back - he even washed the beddings and vacuumed for us! We will most definitely be using Jason in the future because we know our pups are in good hands. If you’re looking for a reliable dog sitter, hire Jason!!”
“Emily watched our two beagle boys for Labor Day weekend last minute. She was accommodating, sent pictures, updates, and kept our house tidy (even washing the bedding before she left). I would definitely recommend her.”

I am fine working any hours and don’t mind staying at the houses overnight. I am around all summer to take care of your furry ones. I keep clean and am a firm believer that keeping a space safe for your pet is the best way to raise them and help them grow.
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!

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’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!

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.

I’m calm, patient, and experienced with dogs of all ages and temperaments, including seniors and those needing special medical care. I also work from home with my shift ending at 1:30 PM, which gives me flexibility for overnight stays and multiple check-ins, especially helpful for pets who need extra attention or companionship.

Jasmine G.
“Choosing Jasmine as our pet sitter was one of the best decisions we've made for our crazy husky boy and fish tank! From the moment we met Jasmine, it was clear that she has a genuine love and passion for animals. Her background in the pet industry and experience with dogs and cats (as well as exotic pets!) gave us complete confidence in their ability to care for our pets. During our time away, Jasmine went above and beyond to make sure our pets felt comfortable and loved. They followed our pets' daily routines meticulously, ensuring timely potty breaks and playtime sessions. The regular updates and adorable pictures they sent us were heartwarming and reassuring. Beyond being a reliable and responsible pet sitter, she showed a deep understanding of our pets' individual needs and personalities. Our shy dog warmed up to them surprisingly fast, which is a testament to the caring and patient nature of Jasmine. Leaving our pets in someone else's care used to be a source of anxiety, but with Jasmine, we feel completely at ease. Their passion for animals, coupled with their professionalism and open communication, make them an outstanding pet sitter that we wholeheartedly trust. We cannot recommend her enough to anyone seeking a loving and reliable caregiver for their beloved pets. They truly provide a home away from home for our furry friends!”
