“Danielle picked up my pup from my home and whisked him off to doggy Paradise where he played all day and made many friends! She brought him home a happy and very tired pooch! I will definitely hire her again!”


About: We absolutely love animals, and want to share our home and fenced yard with your pooch. We understand what it’s like to leave your dog with someone else while you’re away; we will treat your dog like a member of our family. I (Diana) grew up on a farm with lots of different animals and dogs, and understand how each one has their own fantastic personality. Just let me know what they need, and I can do it. We’ve had puppies, older dogs, big dogs, small dogs, and everything in between! My tween/teen kids are kind and fun with animals, and will provide even more love and attention for your dog while they stay with us. Thank you for trusting us with your favorite furry buddy! We primarily work from home so we can spend a lot of quality time with your dog. We have a Newfoundland-poodle mix of our own, so our daily routine is already focused on dog care (feeding, walking, letting outside, etc). Just let me know what your dog needs! We also have goats, chickens, outdoor cats, and a couple of feral peacocks that hang around the property. It’s a pet paradise. 😊 We have a large fenced yard and a big goofball named Hoagie to keep your doggy company. We will love and care for your dog as if he/she was our own, because that’s what we would expect for Hoagie while we’re away. We have extra pet beds, food and water dishes, etc. Our yard is perfect for a game of fetch, a sunbathing session, playtime with Hoagie, or just a great sniff. We’re happy to have your dog sleep in one of our bedrooms, take them for walks, and give them all the love.
“Mitchell’s our go-to sitter! She’s adaptable (I had to drop off Zara a little earlier than expected and she was super chill after I communicated, asking her if it was ok), and Zara loves staying there! Zara will be back next month :)”

“Absolutely amazing service. We had to book last second and have a slightly difficult dog., but they were perfect. They took great care of our boy and sent us constant updates of him playing and having fun to ease our minds. Will absolutely use them again and highly reccomend!!”

We have a building for them to sleep cozy, clean and safe.
“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.”


“Julie was easy to communicate with & answered some last minute questions I had the day of his first stay. Drop off/pick up scheduling was easy & our dog loved his stay! Will definitely recommend for all future pet sitting needs!”


“Words cannot express our gratitude to Deborah! We were looking to pull off a beach getaway for our baby and 2 dogs. As the dogs were not allowed at the hotel we had to find a sitter. Deborah is truly a wonderful, kind, gifted human being and anyone would be lucky to know her or have her care for their four-legged friend ! Her house is top notch as she we got to see where our dogs would be hanging out over night. Beautiful home and perfectly set up. She sent us photos throughout our time apart and reassured us everything was going smoothly. Deborah also has 2 other dogs and introduced them to ours upon arrival one at a time making sure they would get along. I truly know once Deborah is taking care of ours or anyone's dogs t hey can be worry free. Hope to be back again soon. Thanks again Deborah.”

“Brooke was great to deal with and kept me informed of what was going on with my fur baby, Bow. She has a lot of space for dogs to run and socialize. I was happy to know that Bow was kept in a family environment as that is what he is used to. Highly recommend! Thank you, Brooke for taking such great care of Bow! :)”


“My dog had the best stay ever! He has definitely well taken care of in a dog friendly and safe environment. Would absolutely rebook a stay and services with this exceptional sitter. My dog loved his stay there so much that he didn't even want to leave... and has been repeatedly asking to return.”

“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!!”

“Kassandra was great. She took great care of my boy and kept me updated on his behavior. She was flexible with scheduling when we had a last minute change and gave me great piece of mind while we were away. I’d definitely recommend her!”

“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.”

“This was such a positive experience. We’ve always taken Ajax to daycare but never left him with a family. We had a family emergency come up and Mitchell was so helpful and obliging! She sent us pictures as well as an update and Ajax came home happy!! We’ve already booked her for next week. We would absolutely recommend her!”

About: As an enthusiastic pet lover with a full-time job at a pet store and the proud owner of two adorable cats, I have immersed myself in the world of pet care for years. Growing up with dogs has instilled a deep understanding of canine behavior, while my feline companions have given me unique insights into the needs and quirks of our feline friends. This combined experience allows me to cater to both dogs and cats with the utmost love, attention, and care. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I plan my schedule around your pet’s comfort—ensuring regular potty breaks every 4–8 hours, meals on time, play sessions, and lots of affection. Whether it’s a short visit or a longer stay, I make sure your pets feel relaxed, loved, and well cared for. Compassion First: I treat every pet like family, always prioritizing their comfort, safety, and happiness. Experience Counts: My experience at a pet store and as a multi-pet owner has taught me how to handle a wide range of behaviors, dietary needs, and situations—whether it’s picky eating, anxiety, or energetic zoomies. Tailored Care: I adapt to each pet’s routine, and I’m happy to follow specific feeding schedules, administer medications, or work with special needs pets.

“Great sitter with cozy, clean and safe home and two sweet little dogs (and a chill cat). My Chihuahua had a good time. I'd definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and responsible sitter.”

“Mary was available last minute and took great care of my dogs. ?She ensured my dogs were up to date on their shots, asked about their feeding schedule and took great pics. My dogs had a fabulous time in her backyard and with her dogs. ?Would definitely use again next time I’m in the area. ♥️”

“We came to Nevada City for a wedding and needed to find daycare for our dog Buckeye. Aron had wonderful revues and lots of repeat customers, so we felt good about leaving Buck with him. It was a great experience and Aron was as wonderful as his revues. We especially enjoyed receiving photos of Buck enjoying himself in the wading pool while we were at the wedding. Buckeye had a great time with Aron and his other dog charges and was a happy and tired boy when we picked him up. We highly recommend Aron.”

About: I have taken care of dogs & cats of any age or breed while raising 3 daughters. Friends in our community and family members have reached out to me to take care of & feed their pets overnight for a long weekend or up to 10 days. I am retired for the past 7 years, so I have a lot of flexibility in my days to fit pet care into my daily or weekly routine. Where I’ve been living for the past 6 years, fur babies were not allowed. So my taking care of others pets in their homes fulfilled that void. We are now located in Magalia since June and settling into our new home.
