“Melissa and Shaun were awesome! I’m very glad I found them so last minute and were able to take all four of my pups. They had a good layout with the kennels for boarding, in the shade and about 2-3 different dogs runs. I have a mix of large and very small pups and she was able to attend to them appropriately with the little ones separate and closely with her. Thank you again! Hope to book again soon!”
“You’ll never find a more kind and caring dog lover. Lynn has a big heart for her furry friends. She gives amazing attention to our baby. Above and beyond for sure. Our dog is definitely safe with Lynn.”
“Thank you to Tara. Our dog Murphy was well taken care of during his time at Tara’s house. He was treated like a member of her family. We would definitely use Tara’s services again if we need to leave Murphy behind when we go away on a trip.”
About: I have always loved being around dogs. I used to have one of my own before moving away from my parents’ house. Before moving, I taught my dog a few tricks like sitting, giving me her paw, lying down, not pulling on the leash, and staying in one place. I loved her very much and cared for her as if she were my child, so it won’t be hard for me to care for and love your dog as my own. I have always grown up around dogs, no matter their size or breed. Although I’m not a mom, I tend to have a strong maternal instinct when I’m around them. I currently am going to college and am not working any other job so I am pretty flexible on scheduling at the moment. Right now I only have afternoon classes and there is a good gap in between them where I could fit in a walk. I am also completely open on the weekend Friday through Sunday. When taking care of your pet I would make sure to be aware of how friendly your dog may be I don’t intend on having them be pretty close to other dogs as I can’t predict how nice or reactive the other dogs may be. I would make sure to have water and treats on me as well as monitor how tired your dog may be
“Erica is so amazing! She’s so flexible, accommodating and welcoming! She’s always so excited to see my pup and my pup is always comfortable as soon as she gets there! We love Erica <3”
“My dog did wonderfully with Kirsten! I've tried a few different boarding options and Kirsten is by far the best! She sent a daily update to let me know how it was going and was very quick and responsive to communication about both pickup and drop off times. I will certainly be using Kirsten again for my boarding needs.”
“Beyond fantastic! Kasandra kept our cocker while we were away for 2 weeks. Not only was he very well cared for—he was actually better than when we left him! He is way calmer and has better manners than he had at drop off. Kasandra gave me some pointers that will help me a lot with him at home. This gal is a dog whisperer!! I could not be more grateful. Thank you Kasandra!”
“Pontida took my chrissy in last moment, for a fair price, and with lots of love. She sent pictures with updates, letting me know that chrissy was ok and doing well. Chrissy had a great time and I could not have asked for a better pet sitter.”
“Marya sent pictures often showing both dogs having a good time and playing. Our daughter picked them up and said the dogs were happy and taking a walk. Thanks Marya for taking great care of the pups. They will see you in a few days.”
“Valerie is a caring and attentive pet sitter for our dog Cali. She gave Cali her medications on time and took her on daily walks. Valerie took great care of Cali, I really appreciated the daily pictures and prompt messages. I would definitely book Valerie to care for our pets.”
“Thank you Poulette for sitting Blue! He seem well taking care of and very happy when he returned today. I would definitely recommend you as a great dog sitter!”
“Tristi did an amazing job! She was communicative, attentive, and made sure all the pups were safe, comfortable, and happy. It's clear she genuinely cares about dogs, and that gave me so much peace of mind. Her family was wonderful too! I highly recommend her and would absolutely book with her again.”

“I highly recommend Leslie. While I was out of town, she sent me pictures of Kobi. She reassured me that he was being taken care of. She sent a video of Kobi playing with the family. I will certainly use her again.”

About: I have cared for cats all my life. I am 33 years old. My 16 years of experience are of my own personal experience with cats. I have a deep respect for cats. They will be watered fed given treats played with cared for in the way that they need a way to feel as comfortable as possible while you are away.
About: I've had cats since I was 5. My grandparents also has a farm so I have lots of experience with farm cats and feral cats. I've also worked for 10+ years with a local rescue, raising kittens only days or weeks old until they are old enough to be fixed and adopted - feeding them milk on a regular schedule and then weaning them onto wet food, then dry food, also teaching them how to be a cat by interacting with my cats. During the course of my volunteering I have also been taught various first aid treatments as well as how to administer medications and injections.
About: I provide reliable, personalized care tailored to each pet’s routine. I have experience with puppies who need structure and senior pets who need patience and gentle care. I follow detailed instructions closely, including meds and feeding schedules. What sets me apart is the attention and time I give, pets aren’t just checked on, they’re cared for and kept comfortable while you’re away. 🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, allowing me to stay consistent with walks, check-ins, and overnight stays. I plan my schedule around each pet’s needs, whether that’s morning walks, midday visits, or evening care. Because I prioritize time and flexibility, I’m able to give pets reliable attention and keep their routines steady and stress free while you’re away. I currently offer care in my client’s home only, not boarding in my own home. This allows pets to stay comfortable in their familiar environment and keep their normal routine. For walks and check-ins, I make sure pets get exercise, attention, and any care they need like feeding or medications. For overnight stays, I provide consistent companionship, follow their usual schedule, and keep their space clean and calm. I always stick closely to owner instructions and give updates so you know your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for.

“Alexis is literally THE best. She’s great at communication and made sure to send picture updates and visit updates twice a day, since that’s how often she visited our pups. Our dogs love her so much! And so do we!!!”
“Jenna was perfect. After a long bout with kitten health care issues, it was very relieving to hear someone use the familiar language of a health care professional. She knew what to look out for and how best to manage the several potential issues she might face. We were fortunate - no issues surfaced - but we slept well on our trip knowing the cats would be okay had something happened. She treated our cats, our house, and our quirky needs as cat owners with respect - which is all you can ask.”
“Sydnie did an amazing job caring for my cats. She sent me photos and updates to ensure I wasnt worried while I was away from home. I would definitely recommend Sydnie to anyone that is looking for peace of mind while they’re away. Thank you Sydnie!”

I care for pets in a specialized manner to what works best for them-whether that be a high-energy dog that enjoys playing in the park and long walks or a senior citizen who enjoys a leisurely amble
“Kay is wonderful! Super communicative, kind, and trustworthy. Best compliment for a pet sitter is when the pet is barely excited to see their owner when they return because they were so well loved, and my cat had obviously been given great care and attention from Kay and was totally normal and regulated when we got home. Thanks so much for everything, Kay!!! Toaster and we appreciate you!!”
About: I have had animals since I was 12. I personally have 4 cats. 3 of the 4 are related. Mama Kitty was a porch kitty and she had a litter of 6 kittens. I raised them all and adopted them out at 12 weeks. I kept two, Archie & Cali. I then foster failed Munchkin. I’ve had 3 dogs in my life and loved them all. I have fostered 2 dogs in the past 3 years and 1 cat. Suffice to say I will always have an animal in the home. I currently work full time from home. I am available at all times during the day and evening. For now my availability will be pretty open to everyone’s needs. I am looking to get out of the house. I had to put my boy down last year and it’s been so hard to enjoy daily walks without him. I am looking to walk dogs and give any cats some extra love. I love all animals. Big and small.

I will take loving care of your cat or dog, only one pet at a time unless they are from the same household. I do not have any pets of my own at this time, which allows me flexibility in my schedule to be able to pet sit. I look forward to taking care of your fur baby.

I am clean and considerate and love to spend time with animals. Your pet will receive personal attention and care with affection. I look forward to taking care of your pets.
About: My name is Hannah and I am a lifelong cat lover. I had cat (s) growing up since I was old enough to remember, and I’ve always been smitten by their playful and curious nature. I have a 3 1/2 year-old male gray and white cat of my own that I rescued from an abandoned apartment. We enjoy going on lil walks around my complex and learning new tricks!

I pay close attention to details in everything I do. So i will follow care instructions carefully and provide regular updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.

I enjoy staying active and spending time with animals, so fitting pet care into my daily routine comes naturally. When caring for pets in my home, I prioritize creating a safe and low stress environment. I take the time to learn each dog’s preferences, noting any special instructions, so they can feel as at home as possible while you’re away. I have a fully fenced yard for supervised outdoor time I also have a friendly, laid back older dog who gets along well with other dogs and helps visiting pets feel at ease. Because I work from home I am able to provide plenty of supervision throughout the day. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, so I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages along the way, giving you peace of mind while your dog is in my care.

About: I have over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs. I’ve had my own dogs for many years and grew up around dogs, so caring for them has always been a natural part of my life. In addition, I did dog sitting for neighbors and families for several years when I was younger, helping with walking, feeding, and daily care. I have experience with puppies, senior dogs, anxious dogs, and dogs that need patience and clear routines, including leash training and behavioral challenges. Dogs are family members to me, and I always treat them with love, structure, and respect. I’m calm, patient, and attentive, and I make sure every dog feels safe and comfortable in my care. I’m very flexible and spend a lot of time at home. I work partly from home and partly in the office, but my schedule allows me to adapt easily to a dog’s needs. Dogs are rarely left alone, and I can adjust my routine to provide plenty of attention, walks, and companionship. Dogs in my care are treated like family. They are allowed to relax freely in my home, including on the couch. I live with two small dogs, so it’s important that visiting dogs are friendly and comfortable around other dogs. I do not accept aggressive dogs to ensure a safe and peaceful environment for everyone.

Whether it’s taking him on a hike, to the beach, or doing training exercises with treats, I know Charlie is super comfortable and loves spending time with her even though he’s the kind of dog that gets separation anxiety. Having someone as trustworthy and thoughtful to take care of Charlie has made us feel comfortable to go on day trips or longer vacations without worrying about our baby. Thanks Cheyenne! 🙏”

About: I've had the pleasure of loving and taking care of furbabies of all sizes for 20 years. I first started pet sitting for an acquaintance in 2005. Later, when I became established in the area as a trusted house cleaner, I started pet sitting for some of my clients and their friends. Sadly, I lost all my clients and contacts save one in the Camp Fire as my client base was in Paradise and Magalia. Since then, I have taken care of my own little furbabies and ever so often cared for the Chihuahua/Pug/Terrier mix of the one remaining client from Paradise. Within the years that I was actively pet sitting, I took care of dogs of all sizes from Chihuahuas to Whippets. I am excited to once again assist you with your pet sitting needs and ensure the best attention is given to your dog’s health, happiness, and well-being! For my clients in Paradise and Magalia, I did both drop-ins and overnight stays. (My favorite memory was staying with two little lovely Dachsies for three weeks!) I made sure each pet I took care of was fed as per the instructions given to me and that they had access to fresh, clean water. Whether it’s maintaining a regular meal routine or making sure your pet stays hydrated throughout the day, I prioritize comfort and health for all furbabies in my care. I also have experience administering medications, whether oral or topical, and am dedicated to ensuring your pets specific medical needs are met with precision and care. I know personally the importance of a vet's instructions and the proper maintenance of a consistent medication routine. I also know the importance of exercise in keeping a pet happy and healthy. Whether it’s a leisurely stroll or a more vigorous activity, I am happy to ensure that your pet gets the exercise and playtime they need! Above all, each dog that I have taken care of I have treated as part of my family. I look forward to providing your furbaby with the same love, attention, and care that I have given to my past clients and to my own pets! I currently have a day job between the hours of 9:00AM and 3:30PM, Monday through Friday. My hours are flexible with my day job and I can switch obligations around as needed to suit your pet sitting needs. I do not work on weekends. I can be available during the day on week days, and am available nights during the week, and evenings and nights on weekends. For any pet in my care, whether it has been a client's pet or my own, I have always ensured that they have gotten plenty of love and quality care. For past clients, I adhered to all instructions given pertaining to feeding time, exercise and medications if applicable. I made sure there were plenty of cuddles and that every pet in my care felt safe and secure.

About: I grew up here in Northern California with many different loyal pet dogs. After high school I joined the Army and got out of active duty in 2017.

I’ve worked for various different high level sled dog kennels, thousands of different dogs, thousands of hours with dogs, thousands of miles with dogs, and even spent a year working at an Athletic & Longevity Canine Research Facility under the mentorship of some of best veterinarians and scientists. My knowledge and experience in general canine medical care, psychology, and training is advanced. I currently work from home & have a flexible schedule. I open to the special needs & care of your beloved pet from all ages. Each pet is individually unique when it comes to specific pet care, so I will work diligently with owners to best understand their pet. I have 1 spayed female 8 y/o Shepherd/Husky mix who is well tempered, a lead sled dog, well socialized to keep your pet company(friendly with both dogs & cats). I have a dog door that leads to a fenced in backyard. Regularly scheduled feeding, walks, & bathroom breaks.
About: I have had a variety of animals always in my life. I have cared for dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, fish and rodents. (All of which I've had at some point) I have also worked for a rescue charity for 7+ years which resulted in having learned basic and emergency care, as well as administration of medication. I am retired and looking to fill my time with love and cuddles. I have always enjoyed caring for the variety of animals I have and have had. I love learning all the cute special quirks and loves of every animal I interact with. I am very respectful of other people's space and items - my focus is on the animals in my charge. I can feed, walk, play and generally be a companion to any animal. I also respect the home and treat it even better than my own, ensuring that I leave the home as I found it.

“Melissa and Shaun were awesome! I’m very glad I found them so last minute and were able to take all four of my pups. They had a good layout with the kennels for boarding, in the shade and about 2-3 different dogs runs. I have a mix of large and very small pups and she was able to attend to them appropriately with the little ones separate and closely with her. Thank you again! Hope to book again soon!”
About: I have always loved being around dogs. I used to have one of my own before moving away from my parents’ house. Before moving, I taught my dog a few tricks like sitting, giving me her paw, lying down, not pulling on the leash, and staying in one place. I loved her very much and cared for her as if she were my child, so it won’t be hard for me to care for and love your dog as my own. I have always grown up around dogs, no matter their size or breed. Although I’m not a mom, I tend to have a strong maternal instinct when I’m around them. I currently am going to college and am not working any other job so I am pretty flexible on scheduling at the moment. Right now I only have afternoon classes and there is a good gap in between them where I could fit in a walk. I am also completely open on the weekend Friday through Sunday. When taking care of your pet I would make sure to be aware of how friendly your dog may be I don’t intend on having them be pretty close to other dogs as I can’t predict how nice or reactive the other dogs may be. I would make sure to have water and treats on me as well as monitor how tired your dog may be
“My dog did wonderfully with Kirsten! I've tried a few different boarding options and Kirsten is by far the best! She sent a daily update to let me know how it was going and was very quick and responsive to communication about both pickup and drop off times. I will certainly be using Kirsten again for my boarding needs.”
“Beyond fantastic! Kasandra kept our cocker while we were away for 2 weeks. Not only was he very well cared for—he was actually better than when we left him! He is way calmer and has better manners than he had at drop off. Kasandra gave me some pointers that will help me a lot with him at home. This gal is a dog whisperer!! I could not be more grateful. Thank you Kasandra!”
“Pontida took my chrissy in last moment, for a fair price, and with lots of love. She sent pictures with updates, letting me know that chrissy was ok and doing well. Chrissy had a great time and I could not have asked for a better pet sitter.”
“Marya sent pictures often showing both dogs having a good time and playing. Our daughter picked them up and said the dogs were happy and taking a walk. Thanks Marya for taking great care of the pups. They will see you in a few days.”
“Thank you Poulette for sitting Blue! He seem well taking care of and very happy when he returned today. I would definitely recommend you as a great dog sitter!”

It's clear she genuinely cares about dogs, and that gave me so much peace of mind. Her family was wonderful too! I highly recommend her and would absolutely book with her again.”
