House Sitting in Willows

About: I have always grown up with animals, specifically large to medium dogs, so they've been a part of my life always. I do not have certified training but have trained my own personal companions, a great white Pyrenees and English pointer, and they are very clever! I am always looking to broaden my scope! I also love long walks and play time! I work a typical 9-5, but weekends are typically most available. Sometimes I get home early when the work is done and can be available usually after 2PM weekdays. I have a very flexible work schedule, shoot me a message and we can set something up to best suit your pets' needs. I currently stay in a spaceous 2-bedroom apartment in Chico on a quiet, and beautiful residential road. There are several outdoor green space and many options for trailheads and the bike path is just next door for those that like longer walks! I keep my place very clean and share with my furry roommate (cat Sasha) as seen in my profile photos. She loves both dogs and cats and can be easily kept away from your pet if need be if your pet prefers one on one time. I included a photo of my layout for those with smaller to medium dogs it would be very comfortable as doggy daycare in my home. I also pride myself in maintaining general cleanliness both in your home and mine. I'm happy to clean litter boxes, pick up doggy droppings, brush and clean fur, or whatever is requested within reason, just ask!

“This is my first time using the Rover app, and Lauren made me feel comfortable. She even met my dog before the booking even started to ensure it was a good fit for everyone. I will definitely be using the service and Lauren again on our next trip!!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for the last 15 years. I’ve been entrusted with all dogs from puppies to elderly and as well as strict diets or extreme schedules. I have a true connection to dogs and love being active outside and having a four legged friend with! I have personally worked with my own animals on training, behavior and social settings. I would love to be able to help with any of your dog needs! I currently work full time clinic hours Monday through Friday with a flexible hour lunch. The weekends I’m usually fully available. I get up early a few hour before work as well if there are any early morning needs. I have a fenced yard and an animal free household. We love dogs but do not have any of our own at the moment. I’m in a safe new neighborhood about 6-10 minutes from hooker oak and Bidwell.

About: I've taken care of dogs, cats, hamsters, and even birds! Animals tend to be very calm around me thanks to my demeanor. This is good because it allows me to provide quality care for them. I am a full time student and I work for a private contractor fabricating and installing granite, tile, and cabinetry. This means I won't be available most work days until at least 5 pm, but after that point I can provide the best care to all pets all the way until the next morning when I would have to leave for school or work again. I can't bring pets to my home but at my clients home, I can provide the best care. Walks, playtime, mentally stimulating games and more!

“Jason was wonderful with our dogs! He came and stayed in our home so the pups could be in their own environment while we were away, and they loved every minute with him. We got so many videos and pictures from him too! And I think my house was cleaner than when we left! Jason is trustworthy and we will definitely be using him again in the future. Jazzy and Junior say thanks Jason!!”

“We had a great experience with Tess while she stayed in our home to watch over our Doberman pup, Kobe, for 3 nights. He can definitely be a handful, but she handled it. She is very sweet, good communicator, neat and tidy. Would definitely recommend!”

I’m patient, I’m loving, and I will work my absolute hardest to ensure the best possible experience not only for your animal but for you as well.

I will make sure they have adequate potty breaks and I will make sure they have the best time ever when they are in my care. My complex is safe, clean, and very pet friendly. ☺️

“Rachel did an amazing job. Edith, our family pup, loved her and had a fantastic time during her puppy vacation while we were on our vacation. This was our first time using Rover. I will definitely be using Rachel again and again for our pet sitting needs. 100 out of 100. 💕”

Anytime before and after work I can check up on your animal! I work outside of chico and will not be able to check on your animals during the day.

I’m dedicated to caring for your pets as my own! I work early mornings so im majorly available almost every afternoon/evening for walks and check ins! Whatever you need, i can make time for you! Sometimes pets are messy! This can be because they were feeling playful while you were gone, maybe they had to potty, or maybe they felt scared being left alone at home. As well as caring for your animals, I also do the basics of clean up, feeding, playing, and walking. If you want me for house sitting services, more cleaning may be involved as well. I’m also comfortable with brushing, nail clipping, and bathing dogs at request.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with 29 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, ages, and temperaments - from bouncy puppies to slow-moving seniors. I'm skilled in administering medications (including pills, injections, and IVs), managing special diets, and caring for dogs with medical or behavioral needs. Whether your pup just needs a walk or specialized care, you can count on me to treat them like family, with calm confidence, compassion, and expertise. I’m available for walks, feedings, check-ins, and other pet care Monday through Friday after 1:30 PM. I work from home, which means I can also stay overnight with your pets when needed, for animals who do best with companionship. I'm fully available all day on Saturdays and Sundays, making weekends great for longer visits, extended stays, or special care routines. I care for pets in their own home where they feel safest and most comfortable. I follow your pet’s usual routine as closely as possible - including feeding, walking, medication, playtime, and bedtime. I’m calm, patient, and experienced with dogs of all ages and temperaments, including seniors and those needing special medical care. I also work from home with my shift ending at 1:30 PM, which gives me flexibility for overnight stays and multiple check-ins, especially helpful for pets who need extra attention or companionship. I’ve also cared for a variety of farm animals - so whether it’s a shy pup, a senior dog with meds, or a whole animal crew, you can trust they’ll be in experienced, loving hands.

About: My parents bred dogs growing up, and we always had a few cats too, plus I worked on a few different farms with chickens, goats, and pigs. As a teenager I used to walk dogs for extra money and I would love to do it again. I currently have a 5 year old rescue German Shepherd who is great with other animals, he would love to come meet your pet too! I am currently laid off so I have open availability. I walk my dog 2-3 times a day, but would love more time with animals. I have decades of experience with animals, my dog Storm is my bestie, but I have never met an animal I didn't like. I will treat your animal like they are my own.
