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.
“Danielle was the best to work with! Our family unfortunately had an emergency and she was a huge help coordinating the details to ensure our pup was cared for. She was also very easy to communicate with and I loved receiving updates/pictures of my dog while she cared for her. 10/10 recommend her caring for your animal(s)!”

“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!”


“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’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!

“Sarah was amazing with boarding care. I got updates and photos daily which was so nice. Definitely will be using again next to we need to board. Sarah will definitely care and love your animals like they were her own!”

“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!”


“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 our second stay with Yesenia. Archie,for the second time, came home a very happy dog. My husband mentioned that when he dropped Archie off, he was so excited to be there! Yesenia is warm and caring, a great communicator, and genuinely enjoys what she is doing with Rover. We are so grateful for her.”

I live in a spacious home with a fully fenced yard where dogs can safely play, explore, and get plenty of exercise. I also have an 8-month-old service dog in training who is extremely friendly, well-socialized, and enjoys being around other dogs. With over 9 years of experience training service dogs, I understand the importance of maintaining routines, reinforcing positive behaviors, and providing attentive care. I carefully supervise all interactions between pets and make sure each dog feels comfortable in their environment. Whether I am caring for pets in my home or in a client's home, I treat every animal as if they were my own. I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, exercise needs, medication administration, and any special requests. My goal is to create a safe, loving, and stress-free experience for both pets and their owners while providing regular updates and communication throughout their stay.

About: I’ve owned a dog nearly my whole life, 3 dogs in total. One poodle when I was younger, a shorkie, and a pitbull husky mix I found on the side of the road. I also have around 3-4 years experience in volunteering at animal shelters, doing doggy day outs, summer dog walking and fostering. I care for my dog each day, he’s become apart of me. Everyday I wake up, take him outside so he can run round and relieve himself. Then I fill his food and water bowl, at least 3 times a day to make sure he gets the right nutrition. I take him on walks and play with him alot, he’s love fighting my hand it’s so cute. I treat every pet like my family, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable at all times. I’ll stick as close as I can to their normal routine such as meal, walks, playtime and any special care so their environment feels consistent and safe. In my home your pet will get a calm space with lots of attention and affection. In your home I will respect your space while keeping your pets routine exactly how they’re used it. I will also send videos a pictures throughout the day so you can feel at ease.
About: I've had pets all my life and always been a huge animal lover. I also been left in charge of animals whenever family members were out of town. I actually have a cat myself (who I love dearly). And I've had many pets growing up through my childhood and so I am very experienced with all kinds of pets. As for my cat I clean his litter box every day. So, for any cat owners I would be more than happy to make sure litter boxes are kept clean. As for other pets and routines I will keep to any schedule that the client requests. (Whether that be daily walks or specific feeding times) If you let me know what you want, I will do it.

About: Pet Care Experience 🐾 Animals have always been a big part of my life! I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all ages—from energetic puppies learning good habits to gentle senior pets who need a little extra patience and love. I understand that every pet has their own personality, and I take time to get to know each one’s unique routine, preferences, and comfort level. I’m skilled at reading animal body language, managing leash behavior, administering basic medications, and creating a calm, safe environment—whether on a walk, drop-in visit, or overnight stay. Your pet’s happiness, safety, and well-being are always my top priorities. What sets me apart is my attention to detail, reliability, and genuine connection with animals. I treat every pet like my own—with plenty of care, consistency, and cuddles! 🐶🐾 Schedule 🐾 I currently have an open and flexible schedule, which means I’m available for pet care throughout the week—mornings, afternoons, and evenings. This flexibility allows me to give your pets the attention, care, and consistency they deserve without rushing or distractions. Whether you need daily walks, drop-in visits, or extended stays, I’m happy to accommodate your schedule and your pet’s routine. Reliability and communication are very important to me, so you can always count on updates and peace of mind while you’re away. 🐶🐱 Safety, Trust & Environment 🐾 Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or taking them on walks, I make sure they feel secure, loved, and well-attended to at all times. I follow your pet’s established routines closely—meal times, potty breaks, and preferred walking routes—to help them feel relaxed and at ease while you’re away. I’m fully insured for pet care, which means you can have complete peace of mind knowing your furry family member is protected. I take time to learn each pet’s personality, signals, and comfort level, and I’m always mindful of their surroundings during walks or visits. My goal is to create a safe, trustworthy, and positive experience for every animal I care for—because they deserve nothing less. 🐕🐈💛
About: Currently have a dogs and a cat. Was up to 8 cats and 2 dogs after rescuing a litter of and an single orphane. I also rescued my own dog as well after she was abandoned by a friends roommate. I have had animals all my life as well. Even farm animals due to participating in FFA I can help continue house, crate, leash, etc. train while i care for them. I am not a certified trainer but I've gone through training with my own and feel comfortable implementing your routine while watching your pet. I can also bathe animals if needed I work randomly at Kay Jewelers and have a son I have about 75% of the time. I am available during most of the work week and weekend. I have been given mostly closing shifts so evenings are busier for me than mornings. My life is work and home, and when I'm home I'm always looking for a reason to be out of the house. I believe any proper teaching, training, caring or interacting is done through positive reinforcement. Following your house rules and understanding the needs of your pup is important
About: Since I was a young child, I have been fond of pets, and as an adult, my affection for them has only increased. I'm passionate about getting to know the many kinds of animals. Throughout the years, I have offered to help, taken care of family and friends' pets, and loved my own pets. My availability is open. I am available to stay overnight and can visit your pets in the early morning ☀️ and late at night 🌙. When handling frightened or shy animals I try to maintain a sense of calm and patience. Because they are sensitive to change and can be missing their family members. I try to keep my lovely Sasha😽 on the same schedule. Give her healthy, food that is high in nutrients. Give her Access to Clean Water. Give her a Warm and Caring Home. Whenever she needs to Answer Nature's Call she always has a well maintains litter box to go too . I always try to find fun toys for her to keep her occupied while I work.
“Sophia is fantastic! She is very thorough in getting to know the dogs and their preferences and personalities. Our dogs have taken to her right away. Would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring dog walker with great attention to detail!”

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.
“Danielle was the best to work with! Our family unfortunately had an emergency and she was a huge help coordinating the details to ensure our pup was cared for. She was also very easy to communicate with and I loved receiving updates/pictures of my dog while she cared for her. 10/10 recommend her caring for your animal(s)!”

“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!”


“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’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.
“Sarah was amazing with boarding care. I got updates and photos daily which was so nice. Definitely will be using again next to we need to board. Sarah will definitely care and love your animals like they were her own!”

“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!”


“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!”


“The best dog sitter in the world she went above and beyond to care for my fur baby even had a birthday party for her I could not have asked for more or a better sitter would recommend to ANYONE”

“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!”

“Mitchell is wonderful! She took wonderful care of my dog. My dog was right at home and extremely happy. He didn’t want to leave! I also appreciated the pictures and constant communication she had with me. Mitchell is now my go to person for my dog.”


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.
“I am so happy that I found Mark. He was wonderful with our dogs. He kept me updated on how they were doing and sent pictures. Our vacation was so much better not having to worry if our dogs were ok. They had a blast! I will definitely be using Mark again.”

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.
“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!”
