About: I volunteered at Haven Humane Society in Redding for three years, where I gained a lot of experience caring for both cats and dogs. While I was there, I helped clean and sanitize their areas, walked dogs, and spent time socializing with the cats. In my personal life, I have a kitty who is my pride and joy! He does well with other animals and has definitely made my love for animals even stronger. I also had a dog who recently passed away. I had her since she was a puppy and helped train and care for her throughout her life, so I’m very familiar with the puppy world and all the patience and attention that comes with it! I’ve always loved animals and know how important it is to have someone you trust taking care of your pets. I would treat every pet I care for like they were my own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m currently a student at Butte College, so my schedule gives me plenty of time to care for and spend time with your furry friends! I usually have classes in the mornings, so most afternoons and evenings are free. This gives me lots of time for walks, playtime, feeding, check-ins, and making sure your pets get plenty of attention throughout the day. My schedule is pretty flexible, and I’m happy to work with you and your pet’s normal routine! I know how important it is to trust the person taking care of your pets, so I’ll always do my best to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re with me. For boarding, I’ll make sure your pet has a comfortable and safe space in my home, along with plenty of attention, playtime, and potty breaks. I do have a cat of my own who does well with other animals, so I will always make sure everyone is introduced safely and is comfortable around each other. For dog walking, I’ll make sure your dog is secure on their leash and follow any instructions you have for their walks. When caring for pets in your home, I’ll respect your space, follow your pet’s normal routine, and make sure everything is clean and secure before I leave. I’m also more than happy to send pictures and updates while your pet is with me because I know how nice it is to know your furry friend is safe and being taken care of!

“Monisha was great with Wrex and provided lots of pictures and details of daily activities, including lots of walks. I will book with her again and was very happy with her service!”

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

About: I have helped out w my friends pets, both dogs & cats throughout the years, I have worked w young & adult animals. With my flexible schedule, I can care for animals per their specific needs.

“Taralene was so accommodating to me and my dog! We needed a last minute booking and she didn't hesitate to respond back with a solid yes.

About: I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life, so being around them has always felt natural to me. I recently graduated from Chico state and currently have two dogs of my own a 6 year old toy poodle and a 5 months old border collie mix. As a pet owner myself, I know how hard it can be to leave your dog or cat with someone else. That’s why I do my best to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re with me. Whether your pet loves to play, go for walks, or just relax and get cuddles, I’ll make sure they get plenty of attention and care. I treat every pet like they’re part of the family, and I’ll always keep you updated so you can have peace of mind while you’re away! I currently work part time at Bath & Body Works and usually only have 2–3 shifts a week, so my schedule is very flexible. When I’m not working, I’m home spending time with my own dogs. This allows me to be available for different drop-off and pick-up times and gives me plenty of time to provide walks, potty breaks, playtime, and lots of love and attention. I treat every pet like they’re one of my own. My home is a safe, loving environment where pets get lots of attention, playtime, potty breaks, and cuddles. I understand that every pet is different, so I’ll do my best to follow their normal routine and help them feel right at home.

I will continue working with Autumn for doggy day care! Thank you!”

Neighborhood is safe for walking pets and talking potty breaks. There is a park near by to enjoy with the dogs as well. Have experience administering oral medication if that is needed. I have experience working with dogs with disabilities. Please provide me with any information that will makes your pets stay comfortable with me. I am home full-time attending to my pets and ready to attend yours. My schedule is flexible which makes me available to help your furry family member. The community we live in is safe and clean. I have my backyard fully fenced off for a quick and easy potty break. The backyard is also a safe place for the pets to play safely. We have a large park that is close to our home to walk the pets and play with them. In my supervision while we are at the park dogs will be on long lead, not off leash. Let me know what makes you feel the most comfortable for you and your pet.

About: Hi! My name is Cyn, and I’ve been caring for pets consistently since 2022, both through Rover and privately, with several returning clients each year. I treat every pet as if they were my own and always prioritize their comfort, safety, and happiness. I have experience with crate training, basic commands like sit, and leash walking. I truly love dogs and animals of all kinds, and I enjoy providing loving, reliable care while owners are away. I’m available nearly full-time and am a part-time online student, which gives me a flexible schedule so I can focus my attention on your pets. If allowed, I’m happy to provide basic baths at no extra cost so your pet can go home feeling clean and refreshed. I’ve grown up around animals my whole life and currently have pets of my own. I also offer drop-in visits and will always follow your instructions closely while keeping you updated. Thank you for considering my services — I’d love the opportunity to care for your fur baby! I’m available full-time for pet care with a flexible schedule. The only time I'm restricted until may 30 is Monday evenings from 6 to 9 I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment while following all owner instructions carefully.

About: I was born an animal lover and I got my first puppy on my 9th birthday and have had many dogs and cats since. I have taken care of dogs with diabetes, elderly dogs who need medicine and trained puppies. I will care for any size and any breed dog. I have taken care of pets for friends and neighbors and they knew they could rely on me to give excellent care and love to their fur babies while they were away. I am a retired RN and I am available to take care of your pets any afternoon or evening. I have a flexible, open schedule. I will come to your home and give your dog treats, food and water and exercise. We can play ball or go for a walk. Your pets will receive the care and attention you want them to receive in your absence so you come home to happy dogs. I am dependable and trustworthy and will maintain your home's safety as well as your pets.

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: 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.

“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!”

Daniel B.

“Deena took excellent care of our two German shepherds while we were in Hawaii! We got updates during our trip and we could tell the dogs were having a great time and loved Deena. We highly recommend trusting in her to take care of your dogs!”

Jen J.

“We just love Lynnette! I can't think of a better place to take your fur baby. It truly is like a resort for dogs! Holly had a great time and was probably disappointed to come home to our boring house. Lynnette sent pictures throughout her stay which helped us, knowing she was having so much fun. Thank you again Lynnette!!!”

About: If I am watching your pet for more than a day, I will absolutely crochet them a fun hat or accessory! I’ve always been comfortable around animals and genuinely love spending time with them. I’m patient, attentive, and good at picking up on an animal’s individual personality, routine, and comfort level. I’m reliable with schedules and details, so feeding times, medications, walks, check-ins, and special instructions are taken seriously. I’m also happy to send regular photos and updates so you know how your pet is doing while you’re away. I’m comfortable with pets who are energetic, shy, anxious, goofy, or just very particular about how they like things done. My goal is to keep their routine as normal and low-stress as possible and make sure they feel safe, cared for. I’m comfortable administering medications and have experience with both oral and injectable medications. I’m attentive to dosing instructions, timing, and making the process as calm and low-stress as possible. I’m also genuinely excited about dog walking. I’m working on being more active myself, so your dog gets a reliable walking buddy and I get an enthusiastic accountability partner. I’m happy to adjust the pace and length to your dog’s age, energy level, and usual routine—whether that means a relaxed sniff-heavy stroll or a longer, more active walk. I work a consistent full-time schedule, with quite a bit of flexibility throughout the day. It makes it easy for me to plan pet care reliably throughout and around my work hours. My work hours are 6:00am-2:30 pm Tuesday - Saturday. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and other care, and I’m happy to coordinate a routine that works well for both you and your pet. I value consistency and punctuality, especially when pets are used to a specific feeding, walking, or medication schedule I live in a pet-friendly apartment near lots of walking trails. I currently don’t have any pets in the home(unless you count a shrimp 🦐) I take pet care instructions seriously and always try to keep your pet’s routine as familiar and low stress as possible. I pay close attention to feeding instructions, medications, behavior, doors and gates, leash safety, and anything else you want handled a particular way. I’m respectful of your home and your pet’s boundaries, and I won’t force interaction with a nervous or shy animal. I’m also happy to send photos and updates during visits so you know how things are going.
