About: I have extensive hands-on experience caring for a wide range of animals, including dogs, cats, birds, horses, and farm animals. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, administering medications, maintaining enclosures, and adapting to each animal’s unique temperament and needs. My approach is calm, patient, and attentive. I prioritize safety, structure, and clear communication. Whether it’s high-energy pets or more sensitive animals, I provide consistent, dependable care and treat every animal as if they were my own. I work from home and structure my days around caring for animals, so your pet won’t be an afterthought, they’ll be part of my routine. I’m available for drop-ins, walks, and boarding with flexible scheduling. My mornings and evenings are consistent, and I make sure pets receive attention, exercise, and calm companionship throughout the day. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I maintain a clean, calm home environment and follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, and house rules closely. I’m attentive to body language and energy shifts, especially with shy or anxious pets. Whether in my home or yours, I respect routines and create a stable, low-stress space where animals feel secure.

“Ashley has been the best sitter my 2 boy bernedoodles have had. I felt comfortable leaving my dogs with her and her precious daughters being so welcoming to them. I liked that Ashley was intentional about making sure she had all the information she needed for their stay. I appreciated the pictures. I appreciate that she didn't have a lot of other dogs in her home besides her handsome dog Bolt. I definitely hit Jack pot with Ashley and will definitely be a repeat!”

“Bear is always excited to go to his “best friend Flynns’s” house! Aimee and her family always take excellent care of him, and send pictures to keep me updated on him. Thank you for being such wonderful caretakers or my dog!”

“Thank you so much, Jean, for coming to our rescue during a last-minute emergency, and caring for our two very spoiled pups for three days in a row! Our dogs are not used to being away from us, but Jean is such a natural that they settled in right away. The photos she sent throughout the day showed their quick comfort and the sweetest moments of them cuddling with Jean and her husband, as well as gradually bonding with her own friendly dogs. On the third day, when an unexpected situation kept us out much later than planned, Jean was incredibly flexible and understanding, making the whole experience completely stress-free for us. She truly went above and beyond, and we honestly feel like she saved us. We’ve found our go-to sitter. No need to look anywhere else.”

“Teagan (and her family) were incredible hosts for my Puggle. I was a little nervous of how it would all go since my pup can be pretty anxious around new people. But she seemed to immediately warm up and feel comfortable. I loved that Teagan sent me photos and updates every day that I was gone. I completely trust her and would book again in a heartbeat! Thank you for taking such good care of my baby!”

About: I have had a dog since I was born. I started caring for my dog by the age of five. Then, I did overnights with a diabetic dog, with whom I had to administer medicine. Now, I have two dogs of my own who are very special. I currently work from home, so pet care fits in seamlessly with my routine. I also have a fenced-in yard, so potty breaks can be taken frequently. I am very attentive with care for pets in my home, and I’m my clients home. I always ensure there is fresh food and water. I make sure they have toys or chew toys to keep them occupied. I am always available to take time to play, and go on potty breaks.

“We cannot recommend Jared highly enough. From our very first interaction, his attention to detail and professionalism set him apart. He took the time to ask thoughtful, specific questions about our dog’s routines, preferences, quirks, and health history—everything from feeding schedules and portion sizes to behavioral cues and comfort habits. It was clear he wasn’t just “watching a dog”; they were committed to understanding and caring for our dog. Communication was exceptional throughout. We received consistent updates—photos, positive words about our dog’s behavior and how much he enjoyed watching our dog. Every message reassured us that our dog was not only safe, but genuinely happy and engaged. His knowledge of dog care was evident in both small and significant ways. He demonstrated confidence in handling, situational awareness on walks, and an understanding of canine behavior that gave us complete peace of mind. He was proactive rather than reactive, anticipating needs before they became issues. Our dog can be particular, yet he adapted seamlessly and respected established routines while building trust. What truly stood out was his authenticity. There was nothing transactional about his care—it was thoughtful, warm, and sincere. You can tell when someone genuinely loves animals, and that sincerity showed in every interaction. If you are looking for someone who blends professionalism, knowledge, attentiveness, and heartfelt care, his is extraordinary. We feel incredibly fortunate to have found him and highly recommend Jared to anyone looking for an outstanding pet sitter.”

“She was so fantastic, that normally my pup is crazy in connecting back w me for hours after not seeing for a week, this time my dog greeted me, and then refocused back on Shawna and I had to pull her away, was sweet. Shawna kept my dog safe, I know for sure my dog felt cared for the whole time, … I highly recommend her!”

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the genuine love, patience, and experience I bring to every pet I care for. I’ve raised both dogs and cats for years, including playful puppies and high-energy pets. I understand that every animal has its own personality and routine, and I take the time to make them feel safe, happy, and loved—whether they’re staying with me or out on a walk. I’m also comfortable with administering medication and providing plenty of playtime or cuddles, depending on what your furry friend needs most. With me, your pets are treated like part of the family. I have two dogs and two cats of my own. I’m currently focused full-time on pet care, which means your pet will get lots of love, attention, and play throughout the day! I’m available for boarding on weekends and weekdays, with a flexible schedule to fit your needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a fully fenced yard, a gated outdoor catio, and two friendly dogs and a cat of my own to keep your fur baby company. My home is clean, pet-safe, and crate-friendly if needed. Whether your pet loves to play or prefers quiet time, I make sure they feel at home.

About: I have been an animal lover my whole life, but I have a special place in my heart for dogs. I have been volunteering at a local animal shelter for the past 6 months doing dog walking and socialization, and I have been trained in how to handle dogs with anxiety and aggressive dogs. I am also certified through Red Cross in cat and dog first aid. As an animal shelter volunteer I have gained valuable experience with dogs from all walks of life and new furry friends. I have been pet sitting for over 20 years, and when I moved to Redding for ministry school, pet sitting was part of how I helped support myself through school. I had 4 dogs growing up, the last of which was a family dog we had for 11 years (black standard poodle). I work 2 part time jobs throughout the week, and my schedule is such that I am looking to walk dogs, do house sitting, drop-ins, baths, etc. My condominium and apartment complex is pet friendly, but the apartment I rent out is not. I’m able to walk pets around the neighborhood but I’m not able to do boarding at this time.

About: I've had a cat all my life. All my dogs have had a best friend cat buddy! I feel confident that your cat will warm up and be a good friend of mine.

“Shannon was amazing! She took the best care of our pets and made sure they were all cared for. Highly recommend Shannon and will definitely use her again.”

“Teagan was great! She was able to pick my baby up (since I work so early) making is easier on me and Yecca. She kept me informed. Yecca had plenty of attention and was able to roam outside. I felt completely comfortable leaving her with Teagan for the day and plan to use her many more times. You can tell she is a genuine person and caring which is the main thing I look for.”

“Beau immediately liked Shannon when she came over for a meet and greet. I booked her for that following Saturday for a walk. I let her know Beau doesn't like to walk when it's hot out and so she came later in the day which was perfect. She sent me a few pictures of Beau while they were out on their walk. I will be booking Shannon again!”
