“Mitchell is an excellent dog care giver. She sincerely loves dogs and is perfect for this job. She is responsible and mature. She also communicated quickly and regularly with me before and during our dog’s 5 day stay. When we picked up our dog she was calm and happy; we could tell she was well cared for. I highly recommend Mitchell!”
“Holly took care of my very nervous 14 year old dog Abbie for 10 days. I received multiple photos and videos updates throughout the time. Holly patiently worked with Abbie, helping her to get over her fears. I now say my Abbie has two mommies! I recommend Holly without reservation. Your dog will be well taken care of while you are away.”
“Our girls had a wonderful time with Yesenia again! She was very accommodating with our schedule and we were very comfortable knowing she was watching our dogs. We will continue to use her in the future!”

He had a great time playing with her dogs too! I felt completely comfortable knowing they were in such good hands. I would highly recommend her if your looking for such amazing care.”
About: I’ve been taking care of pets as a job since I was 10. However, I have grown up from birth around many different animals in my household. Ranging from dogs to turtles, I’ve had it all! I am a college student looking for any work I can get! I currently have a very open, flexible schedule and am willing to work around yours too! Growing up around pets my whole life, I have many tricks and solutions to get dogs to listen in order to assure their safety with me.
“Deena took excellent care of our two German shepherds while we were in Hawaii! We got updates during our trip and we could tell the dogs were having a great time and loved Deena. We highly recommend trusting in her to take care of your dogs!”
“This was Beau’s first stay with Forest. He took Beau for long walks a few times a day, and he provided daily updates with photos. Forest treated our pup as if he were his own, and his home is well-suited for dogs. We would definitely use Forest again for our future boarding needs. Thank you!”
About: I had my own cat named Jesse for 16 years. He was the love of my life. My best friend, child and ruled the home. I work as a caregiver part time so I make my own schedule. I am home most of the time available to give loving attention. I live in a very pet friendly community with a large courtyard. Many dogs and cats live here. California Park Lake is across the street.
About: Hi! We’re Brittany and Chris, and we’ve been dog people our entire lives. We know that leaving your pup with someone else can be a big leap of trust — they’re family, after all! Our goal is to give you peace of mind while making sure your dog feels right at home with us. We’ve both grown up with dogs and most recently had the joy of caring for our beloved Border Collie, Charley, through his senior years. We understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and quirks, and we’re happy to follow whatever helps your pup feel comfortable and cared for. Our home is clean, cozy, and very dog-friendly. We’re big fans of couch cuddles, playtime, and having a pup happily hanging out alongside us. If your dog thinks the best place in the house is curled up on the couch or snuggled in bed with their people, they’ll fit right in here! We have a securely fenced backyard for safe outdoor play, but your pup will never be left outside unsupervised. We’re also within walking distance of beautiful Bidwell Park, so there are plenty of opportunities for walks, exploring, and fresh air. I work from home, which means your dog will have lots of company throughout the day and won’t be left alone for long stretches. We’ll give your pup plenty of love, attention, playtime, and, of course, as many cuddles as they’re willing to accept. We’d love to get to know you and your four-legged family member and make their stay with us feel like a home away from home! Brittany works from home and has a very flexible schedule so can spend all day with your dog. We are happy to modify our daily routines to accommodate your dogs's normal walking and feeding schedule so they feel right at home. We can also accommodate last minute bookings. Your pup’s safety and comfort are our top priorities. We have a securely fenced yard where your dog can enjoy outdoor time, but we will always supervise them while they’re outside. Inside, they’re welcome to make themselves completely at home — including cuddling up on the couch or sleeping on the bed with us. We only host one family’s dogs at a time, so your pup gets our full attention without having to share our home with unfamiliar dogs. We also do not have children, creating a calm and comfortable environment where your dog can settle in and feel at ease. We’ll follow your pup’s routines, preferences, and house rules as closely as possible so they feel safe, happy, and well cared for throughout their stay.
About: If I am watching your pet for more than a day, I will absolutely crochet them a fun hat or accessory! I’ve always been comfortable around animals and genuinely love spending time with them. I’m patient, attentive, and good at picking up on an animal’s individual personality, routine, and comfort level. I’m reliable with schedules and details, so feeding times, medications, walks, check-ins, and special instructions are taken seriously. I’m also happy to send regular photos and updates so you know how your pet is doing while you’re away. I’m comfortable with pets who are energetic, shy, anxious, goofy, or just very particular about how they like things done. My goal is to keep their routine as normal and low-stress as possible and make sure they feel safe, cared for. I’m comfortable administering medications and have experience with both oral and injectable medications. I’m attentive to dosing instructions, timing, and making the process as calm and low-stress as possible. I’m also genuinely excited about dog walking. I’m working on being more active myself, so your dog gets a reliable walking buddy and I get an enthusiastic accountability partner. I’m happy to adjust the pace and length to your dog’s age, energy level, and usual routine—whether that means a relaxed sniff-heavy stroll or a longer, more active walk. I work a consistent full-time schedule, with quite a bit of flexibility throughout the day. It makes it easy for me to plan pet care reliably throughout and around my work hours. My work hours are 6:00am-2:30 pm Tuesday - Saturday. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and other care, and I’m happy to coordinate a routine that works well for both you and your pet. I value consistency and punctuality, especially when pets are used to a specific feeding, walking, or medication schedule I live in a pet-friendly apartment near lots of walking trails. I currently don’t have any pets in the home(unless you count a shrimp 🦐) I take pet care instructions seriously and always try to keep your pet’s routine as familiar and low stress as possible. I pay close attention to feeding instructions, medications, behavior, doors and gates, leash safety, and anything else you want handled a particular way. I’m respectful of your home and your pet’s boundaries, and I won’t force interaction with a nervous or shy animal. I’m also happy to send photos and updates during visits so you know how things are going.
About: I volunteered at Haven Humane Society in Redding for three years, where I gained a lot of experience caring for both cats and dogs. While I was there, I helped clean and sanitize their areas, walked dogs, and spent time socializing with the cats. In my personal life, I have a kitty who is my pride and joy! He does well with other animals and has definitely made my love for animals even stronger. I also had a dog who recently passed away. I had her since she was a puppy and helped train and care for her throughout her life, so I’m very familiar with the puppy world and all the patience and attention that comes with it! I’ve always loved animals and know how important it is to have someone you trust taking care of your pets. I would treat every pet I care for like they were my own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m currently a student at Butte College, so my schedule gives me plenty of time to care for and spend time with your furry friends! I usually have classes in the mornings, so most afternoons and evenings are free. This gives me lots of time for walks, playtime, feeding, check-ins, and making sure your pets get plenty of attention throughout the day. My schedule is pretty flexible, and I’m happy to work with you and your pet’s normal routine! I know how important it is to trust the person taking care of your pets, so I’ll always do my best to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re with me. For boarding, I’ll make sure your pet has a comfortable and safe space in my home, along with plenty of attention, playtime, and potty breaks. I do have a cat of my own who does well with other animals, so I will always make sure everyone is introduced safely and is comfortable around each other. For dog walking, I’ll make sure your dog is secure on their leash and follow any instructions you have for their walks. When caring for pets in your home, I’ll respect your space, follow your pet’s normal routine, and make sure everything is clean and secure before I leave. I’m also more than happy to send pictures and updates while your pet is with me because I know how nice it is to know your furry friend is safe and being taken care of!
“We just love Lynnette! I can't think of a better place to take your fur baby. It truly is like a resort for dogs! Holly had a great time and was probably disappointed to come home to our boring house. Lynnette sent pictures throughout her stay which helped us, knowing she was having so much fun. Thank you again Lynnette!!!”
“Monisha was great with Wrex and provided lots of pictures and details of daily activities, including lots of walks. I will book with her again and was very happy with her service!”

“Ashley took care of our beloved Murphy expertly. She always provided pictures and updates to us. She was also available wherever we needed to talk on the phone. While she house sat and took care of our cat, she also watered all our plants and our home was spotless after our week-long vacation. We would highly recommend Ashley to care for any of your fur babies and home.”
“Allie B. was great. She was very communicative and made sure that my cat Walter, who has separation anxiety, got enough attention. She also went out of her way to make sure that I didn't come home to a mess from my cat. I will definitely be contacting her in the future for further help.”
“Loved Vivianas Visits! I really appreciated the price, which made it very affordable. She visited Bean twice a day and sent photos every time! Viviana was quick to respond and fixed any concerns I had. Bean loved her, and I hope to book with her again!!!”
About: I currently have a cat, her name is Mina and she is a rescue. All of the poeple I have pet sit for have a cat so I know how to take care of them and what they need. I have taken care of both indoor and outdoor cats.
“She is awesome! Spends time with my kitties and does a wonderful job. One of my cats loves to see her but the other won’t come out for anyone and just stays under the bed. But she leaves him treats next to the bed for him. You can tell she really loves our cats.”
About: I have experience caring for cats of different ages, personalities, and needs.

I’m comfortable with feeding, fresh water, litter box care, playtime, enrichment, and giving plenty of attention and affection when they want it. I’m also a cat owner myself, so I understand how important it is to have someone trustworthy caring for your cat while you’re away.
About: I've been raised with animals my whole life. At this point I care for a dog, 2 cats, some fish and a lizard in my household, so I am versed in how to take care of a variety of animals. I can care for any age, young or old. I will do my best to ease any stress with leaving your pet at home. We will have an incredible time with playing all day. I will give baths if needed, and take them out to use the restroom when they need to. I have no professional experience, but I will still provide the best care I can.

About: If I am watching your pet for more than a day, I will absolutely crochet them a fun hat or accessory! I have experience caring for cats with a wide range of personalities, from social and affectionate to shy, cautious, or independent. I’m comfortable following detailed feeding and care routines, cleaning litter boxes, monitoring behavior, and administering medications both orally and by injection. I volunteered at Belleglen Sanctuary and cared for cats with high support needs and am familiar with the care they require. I try to let cats set the pace with interaction rather than forcing attention, especially with nervous or unfamiliar cats. I’m happy to spend time playing, giving affection, or simply keeping them company depending on what they’re most comfortable with. I can also send photos and updates during visits so you know how your cat is doing.

About: I have worked with all types of animals, breeds and personality types. I’ve done dog walking/pet sitting for about 6 years and absolutely adore it! I am comfortable with any special needs or unique temperaments. (Most of my experience has been off this app, hence my lack of reviews… I am more than happy to provide references individually!) I’m currently available anytime during the day or night, weekdays and weekends. I can do overnights as well. As long as we plan ahead all should be good!

Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I’m available after 2:15 PM on weekdays (and after 5 PM on Mondays).

“Kena always goes above and beyond she watched our two fur babies during our wedding helped drop them Off and pick them up from the wedding venue so They could be apart of the ceremony.

Rocky and Hachi loved going to Kena’s and can’t wait to go back. We will be forever thankful to Kena ! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life, so being around them has always felt natural to me. I recently graduated from Chico state and currently have two dogs of my own a 6 year old toy poodle and a 5 months old border collie mix. As a pet owner myself, I know how hard it can be to leave your dog or cat with someone else. That’s why I do my best to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re with me. Whether your pet loves to play, go for walks, or just relax and get cuddles, I’ll make sure they get plenty of attention and care. I treat every pet like they’re part of the family, and I’ll always keep you updated so you can have peace of mind while you’re away! I currently work part time at Bath & Body Works and usually only have 2–3 shifts a week, so my schedule is very flexible. When I’m not working, I’m home spending time with my own dogs. This allows me to be available for different drop-off and pick-up times and gives me plenty of time to provide walks, potty breaks, playtime, and lots of love and attention. I treat every pet like they’re one of my own. My home is a safe, loving environment where pets get lots of attention, playtime, potty breaks, and cuddles. I understand that every pet is different, so I’ll do my best to follow their normal routine and help them feel right at home.
“Jessica was great! She took our dog in last minute for the day and sent us updates throughout the time. The backyard was huge and had plenty of space for the dog to run and sniff.”
“Holly has been an amazing sitter for our Goldendoodle. Our dog tends to be high-strung but she is totally relaxed with Holly and enjoys going on walks. It didn't take our dog long to feel comfortable with Holly. We are really happy with her service.”
“Kassandra did a great job taking care of my pup. She responded quick to my request and was there to meet me when I dropped my dog off. She had a Mello dog and a nice backyard for my girl to hang out in. Would definitely consider booking with her again!”
“Lynnette is very caring and dependable. My Sammy loves her so much, he cries when we pull into her driveway. He can’t wait to get to her! I know that Sammy will be safe and well-cared for whenever he is with Lynnette. Bonus: Cash is a big, friendly dog and gets along great with my little guy.”
“Maeve loves going to Forest's house! We are so grateful to have found someone we trust with Maeve. Forest always makes sure she gets good exercise and has fun stories to share with us after her stays.”
“Bentley had the absolute best time with Deena. It could not have been more perfect. He played all day and came home a happy and tired pup. Deena and her husband clearly love animals and are excellent caregivers. Deena even sent us off with extra treats--some lovely squash and plums from her garden. Thank you for taking such good care of our boy.”
About: I bring a lifetime of animal care experience to every pup I watch. From leading 4H swine projects to raising multiple dogs at a time, animals have always been part of my daily life. I have taken several animal care courses and have an EMT background, so I am confident handling everything from routine needs to unexpected situations. I also specialize in leash training and love working with both energetic puppies and gentle seniors. My friends laugh that I would make a great dog photographer because I cannot resist capturing their personalities and quirks. More than anything, I truly enjoy spending time with dogs and making sure they feel safe, loved, and at home while you are away. I work from home, which gives me the flexibility to provide consistent attention, playtime, and potty breaks throughout the day. I enjoy starting mornings with walks, building in play sessions in the afternoon, and winding down with cuddle time in the evenings. Whether it is a quick walk, training time, or just hanging out together, I love making sure each dog feels included in the rhythm of my day. When dogs stay with me for boarding or overnight care, they become part of my household. They get a comfortable place to rest, plenty of playtime, and regular walks built into the day. I make sure their routines are followed as closely as possible so they feel at home, whether that means a favorite toy at bedtime or a certain feeding schedule. For daily walks or playtime day dates, I focus on keeping them active, engaged, and safe. Walks include leash training reinforcement if needed, and playtime is all about burning off energy in a fun, positive way. I know how important this care is because I have been on the other end of the service myself. That experience drives me to give every pet loving attention, a safe environment, and peace of mind for their people while they are away.
“Lina is wonderful! We were coming into town for an event and needed someone to watch our 2.5 year old male golden retriever pup. She took such good care of him. He’s usually such an anxious guy but as so soon as he met Lina and her dog Winnie, he seemed right at home. We were a little anxious leaving him since this was our very first Rover experience but we felt much better because she made sure to give us regular updates to let us know that he was doing great. Her cats even helped entertain him. We will absolutely be using Lina again when we come to town next and would 100% recommend her to others.”
About: I have experience caring for many dogs for friends family and neighbors. I often would care for my neighbors dog since he was a puppy, parents worked full time and puppies need all the attention they can get so I helped train him. I also trained my own puppy Melo, he’s still growing and learning but I love being his mom. I take extra care of his supplements and nutrition so I know the importance of taking the extra time to do all of that. I have a verry good schedule with being home, I have two dogs of my own iam always coming home at lunch whenever I work. My husband also has a great schedule and helps me out whenever iam not here . When boarding with me I’ll have my dogs stay under my moms care while I pay full attention to your critter. I live in a house with a huge yard they can run around. I am also close enough to bidwell park to go on walks if you’d like that!
“Danielle is a kind and amiable young woman who provided last-minute daycare when our regular sitter canceled. During her time with Finn and Grace, both pups responded positively and had a great experience. Danielle maintained effective communication throughout the stay and took the initiative to send photos without any prompt from me.”
About: I’ve always been told I have a way with dogs. I absolutely adore each and every dog I come into contact with. I’m patient, I’m loving, and I will work my absolute hardest to ensure the best possible experience not only for your animal but for you as well. I take pride in being reliable, and going above and beyond no matter what 💝 I have a very open schedule right now, and will work with anyone to make things run as smoothly as possible in regards to their pet needs/wants. My pets are the most important aspect of my house. I will make sure they have adequate potty breaks and I will make sure they have the best time ever when they are in my care. My house is safe, clean, and very pet friendly. They are treated like family around here ☺️
About: Hi! I’m newly retired and looking forward to spending some of my extra time doing something I’ve always loved—caring for animals. Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Over the years, I’ve owned and cared for dogs of all sizes, from small companion dogs to large breeds, as well as cats and parrots. I’m comfortable with different personalities, energy levels, ages, and routines, and I understand that every pet has their own needs and quirks. Being retired gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to make sure your pets get the attention they deserve. Whether your dog needs a good walk, your cat prefers some quiet company, or your pets simply need someone dependable to keep their normal routine while you’re away, I’m happy to help. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets and your home. I’ll treat your animals with the same patience, kindness, and care that I’ve given my own throughout my life. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! Now that I’m retired, my days are flexible and relaxed, making pet care a perfect fit. I’ve had animals my entire life, including large and small dogs, cats, and parrots, so caring for pets has always been a natural part of my routine. I have plenty of time for walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship, and I truly enjoy having animals around. I treat every pet like I would my own. With a lifetime of experience caring for dogs of all sizes, cats, and various other animals, I understand that every animal has their own personality and routine. I follow the owner’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, playtime, and any special needs. Whether I’m caring for a pet in my home or theirs, my goal is to keep them safe, comfortable, happy, and well cared for while their family is away. My yard is fully fenced, and I have a senior dog who is very friendly and docile.
“Autumn was great!!! She came and met my dog before the doggy day care stay. She made sure my dog was comfortable with her and followed all my instructions. My dog got along well with Bruno, Autumn’s dog. Bruno is very friendly. She took videos of them playing and sent me regular photo updates,which I really appreciated. I will continue working with Autumn for doggy day care! Thank you!”
About: I grew up in a house full of dogs and cats, and I have professionally pet sat since I was a teen. My duties have included feedings, walkings, cleanings, medication dispensing, and so on. I currently work at Enloe during the week, and my husband is home during the day to help with all animal needs! We do have a sweet, friendly German Shepherd in the house that gets along very well with all dogs. It is important to me that your pets are safe, fed, walked, and have fresh water daily. I am willing to follow whatever is your normal routine to keep your pet happy and healthy while you are away.

“Carlee has been absolutely wonderful with my pup. She always sends photos and a message with how the walks went. She is also super funny telling me the silly things my pup did with her! 😋 she's a great communicator, very flexible with her availability, and very reliable. I never had to worry about my pup in her care. We are very sad to have to let her go for family reasons, but she has offered to help out should we need her again. I highly recommend Carlee for your fur baby's care! 🫶”
“Romeo loves going out on adventures with Allie and her sweet pup Suzy. Allie is communicative with me and patient with Romeo as we work on his on-leash behavior which I really appreciate!”

“Tyler was amazing. He responded in minutes with my one day notice request and he was more than welcoming. He proposed a meet and greet and he was very nice and friendly. Nobody else I would ever trust with my blind baby!”
About: I grew up with a lot of pets and currently I have 2 dogs and a cat along with some other animals. I Have a lot of experience petsitting. I started petsitting around the age of 13 and since then have been doing it pretty consistanly for everyone in my neighborhood. I have taken care of animals that have required medical care and so I am experienced with handling medication doses and any other needs your pet might have. I am a college student so I am pretty flexible with when I can come watch your pets. I only have about 1 class a day so your pet would not be left for more than an hour an a half without me checking in on them. I am able to stay as long as needed with your pet and I am able to stay nights so that I'm there with them.
About: I’ve been caring for pets for over 4 years and truly love working with animals. I have experience taking care of dogs of all sizes and ages, including small dogs, large dogs, senior dogs, and puppies. I understand that every pet has different needs and personalities, and I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’ve also cared for cats for about a week at a time, helping with feeding, playtime, and keeping them company while their owners were away.

Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I make sure pets are supervised, well cared for, and given plenty of attention throughout the day. I always follow feeding schedules, walking routines, and any special instructions carefully. I keep a clean, calm, and pet-friendly environment so your furry friend can feel safe, relaxed, and loved while you’re away.
About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember and have always been the go-to pet sitter for family and friends. I have experience walking, feeding, bathing, and caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. I’m currently pursuing a Bachelor’s degree in Animal Science (Pre-Vet) at Chico State and am a Certified Veterinary Assistant, which has given me hands-on experience in proper animal handling, behavior, and care. I’ve cared for both dogs and cats extensively, including volunteering at animal and cat shelters. As a pet owner myself, I understand how unique each animal’s needs can be. I’m also involved in Guide Dogs for the Blind, where I help train dogs; building strong skills in patience, consistency, and communication. Most importantly, I care not only about your pets but about your peace of mind. I prioritize safety, trust, and clear communication so you always feel confident your pet is in good hands. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I care for my own cat with a consistent feeding schedule, fresh water, enrichment, and medication when needed. I also regularly work with livestock, keeping me active in hands-on animal care. Safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I make sure every environment is calm, clean, and pet-friendly, and I take care to remove any potential hazards. I closely follow each pet parent’s instructions, including feeding routines, medications, and any specific care needs. I take time to understand each pet’s personality so I can provide patient, attentive care that helps them feel safe and stress-free. I also carry basic animal first aid supplies and am prepared to respond calmly in case of emergencies. Building trust with pet parents is just as important to me as caring for their pets. I provide updates, communicate clearly, and aim to give helpful feedback when needed. My goal is for you to feel completely confident while you’re away and to return to a happy, well-cared-for pet.
About: I love dogs and would love the chance to work with pet owners, i am willing to sit your dogs at your home and give them the love and care they deserve when you are away, in my life i have had 5 dogs, all of which were bigger but i have been around smaller dogs as well. I will care for your dogs as if they were my own dogs, i am excited to work for the people in my area when it comes to caring for the furry friends of the town. Thank you for the chance to better my skills with animals and learn more about different types of breeds as well as different personalities. this will also help me to exercise and get out of the house by doing something i love. I have an open schedule and can care for your pets whenever they need and keep their routine in tact as to not stress them out. Making sure they have plenty of attention and time outside in their own space and trying my best to keep them calm and happy. I don't mind if the animal just wants to sit and relax or if they would rather run circles
“Ash was a godsend when we came to Chico to tour the University campus. She watched Midnight while we did the tour, which made it stress-free for everyone. She was sweet with Midnight and so helpful. I would highly recommend Ash!”
About: I've been taking care of animals my whole life. My family have had seven dogs, and four cats throughout our life. I also raised one lamb, and two pigs in middle school. Currently, I babysit a puppy, Nola, and check in on three cats, Jarry, Artemis, and Petra. I love animals so much, and you'll see, they love me just as much too. I treat every pet as my own, but I promise not to steal your furbaby hehe. No matter how cute they are. I can teach basic skills like sitting, hand shakes, or spins to dogs. I also have no problem cleaning up messes they may have. I will give lots of pets, cuddles, playtime, attention, and walks when needed. If your baby likes to sit outside but needs supervision, I'll sit outside with them. If your baby likes to lie down all day, I'll read to them. I can adapt to your furbaby's needs. I hope I will have the honor of meeting you and your furbaby! I'm currently in need of a job since I am new to Chico, which makes me available most of the time. I have reliable transportation and can do light commutes around Chico to care for your baby. I always give my babies attention, especially if I'm pet sitting. I give walks to those who need it, I can feed their food on time, I can play with them, and if they get tired, I will happily read a book to them. I can teach small tricks like sit, hand shake, and spin for dogs. I also can do cleaning of any messes they might have made, or light cleaning around the home. I currently do not offer pet sitting in my own home.
About: I’ve grown up with many cats and different types of dog's. I had a dog that was 19 years old and have been self training my current dog since I got him. Im currently a student at Chico State so I have plenty of time after classes and school. I have plenty of time to walk and play with your pets after 2pm on most weekdays. I make sure there’s no way to escape or places that can hurt your pet if it gets in those places. I would make sure to be attentive and make sure I know what they’re up to.
About: I have 2 dogs and have had pets my whole life. I am willing to work with any and all of your favorite furry (or not furry) family and treat them exactly as you would I am free most afternoons and weekends, and am often free for midday check ins as well. I am a student at Chico state and a substitute teacher. I am always willing and excited to spend time with your furry family, and will follow directions exactly. I am confident giving medications, and making your pet feel as comfortable as I can until you come home.
About: I volunteered at Haven Humane Society in Redding for three years, where I gained a lot of experience caring for both cats and dogs. While I was there, I helped clean and sanitize their areas, walked dogs, and spent time socializing with the cats. In my personal life, I have a kitty who is my pride and joy! He does well with other animals and has definitely made my love for animals even stronger. I also had a dog who recently passed away. I had her since she was a puppy and helped train and care for her throughout her life, so I’m very familiar with the puppy world and all the patience and attention that comes with it! I’ve always loved animals and know how important it is to have someone you trust taking care of your pets. I would treat every pet I care for like they were my own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m currently a student at Butte College, so my schedule gives me plenty of time to care for and spend time with your furry friends! I usually have classes in the mornings, so most afternoons and evenings are free. This gives me lots of time for walks, playtime, feeding, check-ins, and making sure your pets get plenty of attention throughout the day. My schedule is pretty flexible, and I’m happy to work with you and your pet’s normal routine! I know how important it is to trust the person taking care of your pets, so I’ll always do my best to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re with me. For boarding, I’ll make sure your pet has a comfortable and safe space in my home, along with plenty of attention, playtime, and potty breaks. I do have a cat of my own who does well with other animals, so I will always make sure everyone is introduced safely and is comfortable around each other. For dog walking, I’ll make sure your dog is secure on their leash and follow any instructions you have for their walks. When caring for pets in your home, I’ll respect your space, follow your pet’s normal routine, and make sure everything is clean and secure before I leave. I’m also more than happy to send pictures and updates while your pet is with me because I know how nice it is to know your furry friend is safe and being taken care of!
About: I have grown up with Dogs and cats as a child. Also had bunny’s, reptiles, and gerbils for that matter! LOL! I’ve had the same Beautiful Most Awesome cat named Gizmo for 15 years until October of last year when cancer took him from me! I’m deeply saddened still. And please believe me when I say. “It was the hardest thing I ever had to do or went thru”. He was my best bud and I loved saying hello when I got home but when he was gone it has been my hardest goodbye! I have dog/New baby puppy sit for a good family friend. And learned anlot anbout new puppies and the special care they need! And I love every minuet of it! I also clean and make sure the home is presentable and reasonably ready for their mom and/or Dad to get home so they do not have to worry about cleaning their mess. Or her own. If client is comfortable with that. Then I would do anything that was asked of me! I’m very punctual and respectful and take into account what the client needs not what I think they need. It’s your family member. It’s your house, all you got to do is talk to me and let me know what you need and I will do my best at providing that service. I also have 1 dog named Bella and 2 cats named Abel and Mozart in our family. Update: Bella past from cancer a few weeks ago, and Mozart passed 2 weeks ago due to kidney disease ! We have suffered so much loss in the past 8 months. We now have Abel and Delilah. Delilah is a 6 month old kitten and Abel is a 1 yr old cat! Lots of fun! Please check my pets profile to see pics of them. And let me tell you. This is their house. We just live in it! LOL. Abel is new. I adopted him shortly after some grieving time over Gizmo. And he is just like gizmo. Big personality and very much a pain in my rear. But he’s our child. And he’s so beautiful! Thank you so much for your time in reading this. And don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions. I am a partially disabled person. I have a disease that affects my hips and lower spine, and then a disease that we believe. I contracted through my father‘s service in Vietnam, but don’t worry nothing that’s contagious. LOL. Nothing that is Gunna take me out anytime soon but getting out of the house to go take care of fur babies is the best thing for me. It gives me exercise. It gives me purpose and it gives me the ability to give the love that I have to give away to other members of peoples families. I’m truly honest and respectful, and need more purpose in my life to help other’s, my hips and my Parkinson’s disease will not slow me down. I’m young still at 41 and I will continue to do anything and everything I can to help anyone in everyone that I can. I would like to continue helping by doing this service for you and your family.. And NOTHING WILL keep me from doing anything and everything needed in any case of taking care of your home or your furbaby. unfortunately, I can only take care of people’s homes & their fur babies in their own home, because of my furbabies. Thank you for understanding. I will keep your home in pristine condition. Cat boxes will be cleaned 2 to 3 times a day unless instructed otherwise. I’m very particular about that so your fur babies and your home will be treated with respect and love and cared for by me, which means I will put my all into anything that you need taken care of.
About: I’m a dedicated Vet Tech student with strong animal care skills, offering patient puppy support, gentle senior care, and personalized attention to keep every pet safe, comfortable, and happy. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I’m available after 2:15 PM on weekdays (and after 5 PM on Mondays). I can only board overnight on weekends, which allows me to give pets my full attention and keep their routines consistent. I live in an apartment with a secure, supervised patio and plenty of space for any crate size. I also take dogs to the on-site dog park for safe exercise and play.
About: I have experience caring for dogs and cats for friends and family, including feeding, walking, playtime, cleaning up, and sticking to their normal routines. I understand how important consistency is for pets, and I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. As a college student, I have a consistent weekly schedule that allows me to dedicate reliable time to pet care. I plan my classes and study hours carefully, which makes it easy for me to provide structured walks, feeding times, and quality attention. I’m responsible and understand the importance of being dependable. In a client’s home, I respect their space and maintain their pet’s normal routine to reduce stress. My priority is making sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for at all times.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 12 years old. I have experience with dogs who have special needs, specifically, neurological disorders requiring medication administration. I’ve spent the last two years training my dog, Bubba, through separation anxiety and reactive aggression. He went from chasing cats to occasionally taking naps with them. My first dog, Lilly, was reactive to dogs and when I brought home Bubba as a puppy, my family called him “snack” because they didn’t think it was possible, but she immediately took him in and they were inseparable for 7 years! I’ve always been gifted at reading animals - humans, not so much. I will always advocate for those who can’t advocate for themselves :) I’m available every day, whenever you need! I recently quit my job and needed a fun way to get a little extra cash before moving to the PNW! Unfortunately, my dog is an anti-social introvert and doesn’t like visitors. His house, his rules… However, I’m more than happy to care for your pet inside of your home!

“Mitchell is an excellent dog care giver. She sincerely loves dogs and is perfect for this job. She is responsible and mature. She also communicated quickly and regularly with me before and during our dog’s 5 day stay. When we picked up our dog she was calm and happy; we could tell she was well cared for. I highly recommend Mitchell!”
“Holly took care of my very nervous 14 year old dog Abbie for 10 days. I received multiple photos and videos updates throughout the time. Holly patiently worked with Abbie, helping her to get over her fears. I now say my Abbie has two mommies! I recommend Holly without reservation. Your dog will be well taken care of while you are away.”
“Jessica was very kind and patient with my wild boy! She was communicative and sent me updates daily. We are excited to have found Jessica to keep an eye on our pup this summer!”
About: I’ve been taking care of pets as a job since I was 10. However, I have grown up from birth around many different animals in my household. Ranging from dogs to turtles, I’ve had it all! I am a college student looking for any work I can get! I currently have a very open, flexible schedule and am willing to work around yours too! Growing up around pets my whole life, I have many tricks and solutions to get dogs to listen in order to assure their safety with me.
“Deena took excellent care of our two German shepherds while we were in Hawaii! We got updates during our trip and we could tell the dogs were having a great time and loved Deena. We highly recommend trusting in her to take care of your dogs!”
“This was Beau’s first stay with Forest. He took Beau for long walks a few times a day, and he provided daily updates with photos. Forest treated our pup as if he were his own, and his home is well-suited for dogs. We would definitely use Forest again for our future boarding needs. Thank you!”
About: I had my own cat named Jesse for 16 years. He was the love of my life. My best friend, child and ruled the home. I work as a caregiver part time so I make my own schedule. I am home most of the time available to give loving attention. I live in a very pet friendly community with a large courtyard. Many dogs and cats live here. California Park Lake is across the street.
About: Hi! We’re Brittany and Chris, and we’ve been dog people our entire lives. We know that leaving your pup with someone else can be a big leap of trust — they’re family, after all! Our goal is to give you peace of mind while making sure your dog feels right at home with us. We’ve both grown up with dogs and most recently had the joy of caring for our beloved Border Collie, Charley, through his senior years. We understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and quirks, and we’re happy to follow whatever helps your pup feel comfortable and cared for. Our home is clean, cozy, and very dog-friendly. We’re big fans of couch cuddles, playtime, and having a pup happily hanging out alongside us. If your dog thinks the best place in the house is curled up on the couch or snuggled in bed with their people, they’ll fit right in here! We have a securely fenced backyard for safe outdoor play, but your pup will never be left outside unsupervised. We’re also within walking distance of beautiful Bidwell Park, so there are plenty of opportunities for walks, exploring, and fresh air. I work from home, which means your dog will have lots of company throughout the day and won’t be left alone for long stretches. We’ll give your pup plenty of love, attention, playtime, and, of course, as many cuddles as they’re willing to accept. We’d love to get to know you and your four-legged family member and make their stay with us feel like a home away from home! Brittany works from home and has a very flexible schedule so can spend all day with your dog. We are happy to modify our daily routines to accommodate your dogs's normal walking and feeding schedule so they feel right at home. We can also accommodate last minute bookings. Your pup’s safety and comfort are our top priorities. We have a securely fenced yard where your dog can enjoy outdoor time, but we will always supervise them while they’re outside. Inside, they’re welcome to make themselves completely at home — including cuddling up on the couch or sleeping on the bed with us. We only host one family’s dogs at a time, so your pup gets our full attention without having to share our home with unfamiliar dogs. We also do not have children, creating a calm and comfortable environment where your dog can settle in and feel at ease. We’ll follow your pup’s routines, preferences, and house rules as closely as possible so they feel safe, happy, and well cared for throughout their stay.
“Literally the most amazing pet sitter! This was my puppies first time being away from me. Mary has been nothing but loving to my little Bella. She sent me photos and videos to update me throughout the day. As soon as I dropped her off, Mary sent me adorable videos! Mary and her husband are incredibly sweet and made me feel more than comfortable, even excited to have my puppy stay with them. I knew that Bella was going to be in great hands. They asked lots of questions when I dropped her off and helped me carry all Bella’s stuff inside their house. Their dogs were sweet and gentle with her. I am so happy! I am 100% booking with Mary again! If you want a great pet sitting experience and a second home for your dog when you need it, book with Mary! My puppy was so incredibly happy and loved!”
About: If I am watching your pet for more than a day, I will absolutely crochet them a fun hat or accessory! I’ve always been comfortable around animals and genuinely love spending time with them. I’m patient, attentive, and good at picking up on an animal’s individual personality, routine, and comfort level. I’m reliable with schedules and details, so feeding times, medications, walks, check-ins, and special instructions are taken seriously. I’m also happy to send regular photos and updates so you know how your pet is doing while you’re away. I’m comfortable with pets who are energetic, shy, anxious, goofy, or just very particular about how they like things done. My goal is to keep their routine as normal and low-stress as possible and make sure they feel safe, cared for. I’m comfortable administering medications and have experience with both oral and injectable medications. I’m attentive to dosing instructions, timing, and making the process as calm and low-stress as possible. I’m also genuinely excited about dog walking. I’m working on being more active myself, so your dog gets a reliable walking buddy and I get an enthusiastic accountability partner. I’m happy to adjust the pace and length to your dog’s age, energy level, and usual routine—whether that means a relaxed sniff-heavy stroll or a longer, more active walk. I work a consistent full-time schedule, with quite a bit of flexibility throughout the day. It makes it easy for me to plan pet care reliably throughout and around my work hours. My work hours are 6:00am-2:30 pm Tuesday - Saturday. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and other care, and I’m happy to coordinate a routine that works well for both you and your pet. I value consistency and punctuality, especially when pets are used to a specific feeding, walking, or medication schedule I live in a pet-friendly apartment near lots of walking trails. I currently don’t have any pets in the home(unless you count a shrimp 🦐) I take pet care instructions seriously and always try to keep your pet’s routine as familiar and low stress as possible. I pay close attention to feeding instructions, medications, behavior, doors and gates, leash safety, and anything else you want handled a particular way. I’m respectful of your home and your pet’s boundaries, and I won’t force interaction with a nervous or shy animal. I’m also happy to send photos and updates during visits so you know how things are going.

“We just love Lynnette! I can't think of a better place to take your fur baby. It truly is like a resort for dogs! Holly had a great time and was probably disappointed to come home to our boring house. Lynnette sent pictures throughout her stay which helped us, knowing she was having so much fun. Thank you again Lynnette!!!”
About: I am a dog-lover and have grown up around dogs my whole life! Growing up, my family has had various dog breeds: a Great Pyrenees, a Bernese Mountain Dog, Dachshunds, a Golden Retriever, and even a Lab/Spaniel/Retriever mix. For the past 10 years, I have been a frequent overnight pet-sitter for my parent's dogs. I am also a walker in my personal life and so I love adding dogs to the mix whenever loved ones go out of town! Additionally, I have a house with a fenced yard if you need a play for your pup to play. I know that dogs become a part of your family and so it takes a lot to trust someone with them, I assure you that your dog will be in caring and capable hands with me! I'm currently working from home and so I have a lot of availability to give your pet the attention they need! I also frequently take walks and have discovered quiet walking trails for the more anxious dogs. I do not have any pets or children of my own which makes my house an environment that is suitable to the various needs of different animals! I also have a fenced yard. My most prominent experience previously was with staying overnight in a home and so I also know what it looks like to honor the house rules for the dog and respect the home where I'm staying.
