“Jessica was great, she contacted me about needs and expectations before scouts walk and stopped by for a meet and greet! She really cared for scout on her check in and even made sure she had plenty of water before she left! Will definitely be using Jessica again.”
“We’ve been working with Ben for a lot of walks and one several day long pet sit. He’s been awesome. Such cute walk photos, timely, and communicates really well. We’re lucky to have him getting our dogs a little extra love”
About: I have had cats and dogs around since I was a child. I have been boarding for almost 2 years, and walking/doing check-ins for nearly 8 years. I started out doing walks to help fill my want for pets. But now that I have two of my own, I realized this is something I really love doing and it is always a joy to meet other peoples' fur babies. In my home, I do have one other dog who LOVES to play and gets along with every animal and human he meets. I have a scaredy cat, and a handful of kiddos who I have taught animal etiquette to since they were all babies. We have cared for the smallest dogs to the largest. We have had older dogs, puppies, dogs recovering from surgery, and females in heat (although not at the moment until our puppy is fixed). We love your babies like they are our own, and love to be able to take them with us if we ever go on any adventures while they are here (of course, with permission!) I am a stay at home mom, so I am home the majority of the day to care for any animals in my home. My kids are AMAZING with animals, as I have taught lots of animal etiquette over the years caring for animals -- and now that we have our own fur babies too. In my home, we just treat your fur babies like one of our own. We give them lots of attention, play time, walk time, etc. I also incorporate your schedules with ours (ie feeding, etc). If there are any special requests, I fulfill those needs. When I go to a clients home, I respect everything around me and be as gentle and careful as to make sure that the fur babies are comfortable with me in their home.
“Eden is exceptionally reliable, communicative, and kind towards our boys!!! There has been a noticeable difference in our pup’s demeanor (he’s happier, more playful) but also in the way he handles on leash! I couldn’t be happier with Eden and I hope to be able to be her client for a very long time!”
“Greg had worked with my dog a year and a half ago, and it was a very good experience. Sadly, that dog passed away but now I have a new dog and I reached out to Greg to see if he could help me get Scooby some extra exercise. He jumped right back in and is helping me and Scooby get off to a good start from the shelter! Greg is great with dogs, and very respectful when it comes to scheduling and communication”
About: I have been caring for animals since my childhood and have several of my own. I am a veterinary assistant and am comfortable with animals of all ages and sizes, as well as with responsibilities such as administering medication, walks, special diets, etc. I work and go to school part time. I have the most freedom on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays, but can also periodically check on your pet on the other days of the week. I can do overnights as well. I will work with your pets needs whether that is specific feeding times, a walking schedule, or other routines that you and your pet typically do.

About: For over 14 years, I cared for two deeply loved dogs - Charlie and Indiana - through every stage of their lives, including special diets, medications, and the realities of aging. I’ve handled everything from leash pulling to pet reactivity, separation anxiety to senior care, and understand how unique each animal’s needs can be. Since losing both of them, I’ve felt the pull to keep sharing that care. I know firsthand how important it is to trust the person watching your pet - it brings peace when you’re away. I’ve been that person for family and friends for years, and I’d be honored to be that for you, too. In addition to providing a fun and safe environment, I have two goals when pet sitting: 1. Providing care that feels like home, even when you’re away 2. Becoming your pet’s second favorite person! I work remotely with a relatively flexible schedule. I will be home with your pet the entire workday, making walks, potty breaks and snuggles easy! I can typically cater the rest of my schedule to your pet’s needs as well. They’re the priority when I’m sitting ❤️ I know how important it is to give each pet the unique care they need. Following your care instructions and preferences is my guarantee. No matter your pet’s age, size or needs, they will be safe, snuggled and secure in the way that suits them best.

I am more than willing to come in early and late for your animals. I can walk dogs big and small and used to walk dogs that weighed around 45 pounds. I can also put animals in their crates if needed as well.

Ethanee R.Star Sitter
“Ethanee took care of our very finicky 22-year-old cat for 9 days over the holidays. Our cat requires twice daily medication and has special dietary needs. We came home to one very happy, very healthy cat. She provided us daily updates, was meticulous about cleaning the litter box and keeping water cleaned and refilled. As a plus, the house was also spotless!!! Not only is our cat very finicky, we are also very picky about who we trust to care for our fur-baby. We will ask Ethanee to cat sit any time we leave. We cannot thank her enough for the care and attention she showered on our little Reggie.”
