“Having King with Holly was amazing! She sent so many pictures and really made me feel at ease. She listened to everything and he had so much fun. I would definitely recommend for dog sitting and we will definitely be booking with her again!”
“We had a great experience with Yesenia! My husband and I are very thorough when we are choosing a sitter for our dogs. We like to make sure that the environment is welcoming, safe, and fun for them as they are our family members (we look for sitters who allow dogs on furniture and on the bed and are good with dogs who have dietary restrictions). Yesenia was very understanding and after a meet and greet, we felt very comfortable having her watch our girls in her home. She has a great space for sitting and a wonderful backyard where our girls could run around with each other! She even asked if we had any preferential instructions that we may not have included in our online request. She was very responsive when we asked for updates on our dogs' stay and sent pictures to us as well. Her availability was also a great fit for us. We will definitely use Yesenia again and would highly recommend her for others as well.”
“She was absolutely amazing with my pup! She followed his routine, gave plenty of playtime and attention, and sent me lots of photos and updates, which I really appreciated. 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.”
“Deena was wondering with our large pup. She sent us photo updates and let him run around and play as much as his little heart desired. He came home tired and happy. Will use her again!”
“Lesly was great with our Dog JJ. He was apparently very comfortable at her place and got lots of attention. She even Texted us several photos of him and he didn’t show any symptoms of separation anxiety, that we were worried about. Great Sitter!”
“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 am a retired veterinary professional and lifelong animal lover. I have two extremely friendly pups, Pukka and Tildon, that are happy to share their space if your kiddo would enjoy it. I have a fenced back yard. Our household goes on one (if not more) walks a day. My boys are well leash trained and would welcome a walking buddy. Depending on your location I'd also be happy to walk your pup solo. We love cats and I am happy to give anything from a few water and kibble top offs and litter box changes as needed to nightly cuddles and adoration. I offer a love and care for all critters (snakes, birds, rabbits, turtles, fish, dogs, cats, horses, you name it!), 10+ years of experience in the veterinary field, and an understanding of animal handling that I know will bring you comfort in my work. If your pet requires special care such as insulin injections, oral medications, SQ fluids, etc please notify me. I am comfortable with medical procedures but reserve the right to adjust my pricing according (upon discussion of course). I work 8-4:30 most days. I am two minutes away from home and always come home to check on the critters on my lunch. We go for walks in them morning before work and there is a dog door into the back yard that can be open if needed. Fenced (6+ feet) back yard with locked gate. I have door dog insert on my back door so everyone can come and go as they please. I live in a small one room studio with a yard about four times its size. Dogs are allowed on the bed and there is a step up onto the bed for senior citizens. It is a small but very comfortable space.

“We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for our dog, Cedar, over Memorial Day weekend! From the moment we dropped her off, it was clear Mark was going to treat her like one of the family. We received regular updates and photos that gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Cedar came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. It’s such a relief to know she was in a home full of love and attention. We’re so grateful for the care, kindness, and thoughtfulness—and we’ll absolutely be booking again. Highly recommend!”
“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!”
“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: Cat Care Experience 🐾 I’ve cared for cats of all ages and personalities—from playful kittens full of curiosity to calm, senior cats who just want a cozy companion and a clean space to relax.

“Super Cooper seems to really like her. She gets a warm greeting and I appreciate that she runs and walks with him! it was raining and Lucy still took him out and he seems very relaxed like he's ready for a nice nap”
About: I've been taking care of animals that were my own since I can remember. I have a lot of experience with cats and dogs and even chickens. I would love to watch any animal needed. I am currently an independent driver through Uber, Lyft and Doordash so I have a very open schedule to provide the care that is required. I can provide any kind of care that you need. As I have two dogs of my own I don't do any homeboarding. I also need to be able to go and check on them throughout the day but I can spend a lot of time with your pets too

“Jen was so great! I have two very different pets and she handled them amazing. One of my pets is on medication and she made sure he took that daily and they both came back in good spirits and so exhausted!! Definitely using her again!”
“Having King with Holly was amazing! She sent so many pictures and really made me feel at ease. She listened to everything and he had so much fun. I would definitely recommend for dog sitting and we will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Deena was wondering with our large pup. She sent us photo updates and let him run around and play as much as his little heart desired. He came home tired and happy. Will use her again!”
“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 am a retired veterinary professional and lifelong animal lover. I have two extremely friendly pups, Pukka and Tildon, that are happy to share their space if your kiddo would enjoy it. I have a fenced back yard. Our household goes on one (if not more) walks a day. My boys are well leash trained and would welcome a walking buddy. Depending on your location I'd also be happy to walk your pup solo. We love cats and I am happy to give anything from a few water and kibble top offs and litter box changes as needed to nightly cuddles and adoration. I offer a love and care for all critters (snakes, birds, rabbits, turtles, fish, dogs, cats, horses, you name it!), 10+ years of experience in the veterinary field, and an understanding of animal handling that I know will bring you comfort in my work. If your pet requires special care such as insulin injections, oral medications, SQ fluids, etc please notify me. I am comfortable with medical procedures but reserve the right to adjust my pricing according (upon discussion of course). I work 8-4:30 most days. I am two minutes away from home and always come home to check on the critters on my lunch. We go for walks in them morning before work and there is a dog door into the back yard that can be open if needed. Fenced (6+ feet) back yard with locked gate. I have door dog insert on my back door so everyone can come and go as they please. I live in a small one room studio with a yard about four times its size. Dogs are allowed on the bed and there is a step up onto the bed for senior citizens. It is a small but very comfortable space.
“We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for our dog, Cedar, over Memorial Day weekend! From the moment we dropped her off, it was clear Mark was going to treat her like one of the family. We received regular updates and photos that gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Cedar came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. It’s such a relief to know she was in a home full of love and attention. We’re so grateful for the care, kindness, and thoughtfulness—and we’ll absolutely be booking again. Highly recommend!”
“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!”
“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!”
“Heather took great care of our dog while we were gone. She spoiled her and sent us daily pictures and updates. Definitely eased our anxiety of being away from our sweet pup. Would definitely recommend Heather and rebook for any future trips.”
“Ally was amazing for our Malcolm. She quickly responded and sent lots of updates during his stay. She was so helpful and trustworthy. We would definitely have her watch Malcolm again.”
“I can’t say enough how happy we are with our experience! Such a wonderful experience. Ajax looks forward to playing and staying with Mitchell and her family. She’s always able to squeeze us in and our dog always comes home sleepy and happy”
About: I have owned dogs - big and small dogs- and cats all my life! I love animals, domestic pets and farm animals… they are a passion of mine. I truly believe everyone should know and experience the love of a pet! I went to school studying wildlife biology and animal behavior. I have worked with rescues from all over NorCal and at a dog daycare in Chico (in one day would be with 30-40 dogs of all breeds and sizes) and had my own business caring for and whelping new dog moms and their newborn puppies- including special needs pups (pups needing tube feeding, oxygen, etc). Animals are a huge part of my daily life and I hope always will be. They are not only a love but also a passion of mine as long as I can remember. I am extremely trust worthy and committed to caring for animals, there’s nothing else I’d rather be doing! ** I can also offer cleaning services in your home while hanging out longer with your pet, ask for more information! My schedule is very flexible and I can usually work around your needs and desires morning noon and night, just let me know and I can make it work! I can care for your pet in any way needed for his/her daily routine and structure as instructed. Giving lots of love while doing it. I believe following your instructions and wish is extremely important
“Lynette was nothing less than fantastic. Scout was happily exhausted and seems to have made some new friends. Lynette sent frequent updates and let us share in the fun with pictures.”
“Dayanara took the very Best care of our 8 month old, high energy puppy, as well as our older, mature Pomsky. Both have different needs and she was able to accommodate them perfectly. Not only does Dayanara love dogs, she understands their behavior. If something is not quite right with our pets, she brings it to my attention and I appreciate that. I would definitely use her again. Steve”
