About: I’ve had dogs anywhere from Springer Spaniels to Cane Corsos, and I absolutely adore every breed. My experience doesn’t end with dogs; I have taken care of tortoises, bunnies, and guinea pigs, too! I know how to give medication, and of course all the necessities. I have also taken care of dogs with disabilities, and injuries. I know how to wrap stitched wounds, as well as change gauze, and apply ointments the correct way! I am here to help and would love to meet y’all’s pups! I have many pets at home, so I am very used to what an animal needs! I am aware of their schedule, and how often most pets need to be taken outside, for walks, or fed. I start with lots of love! I will, of course, greet any dog with some pets, then go into whatever service is booked! I am very enthusiastic, and patient with pets.

About: I have lived with dogs and cats my entire life. I've trained and raised my own rescue dog (100lbs), but I've lived/worked with many pet personalities--ranging from timid kittens and blind chihuahuas all the way to a disabled senior St. Bernard and aggressive German Shepherd. I have a deep compassion for all animals, so I am always eager to make more furry friends! I work two part-time jobs, both of which are very independently driven/flexible, so I am able to work within whatever schedule works best for you and your pet. I am experienced with animals of all demeanors and training levels, so I am able to adapt quickly to their specific needs to ensure their comfort and safety.

About: I’m usually the first person my family calls when they need someone to care for their cutie pets while they’re away. As a grad student and pet owner myself, I understand the emotional support that animals can provide! Pets are family members and I understand what it takes to look after family. I send daily photo updates and report back any information requested. I have experience maintaining training schedules for puppies. I’m diligent at following care plans and requests. Overall, I truly to enjoy connecting with animals and their owners alike! Thank you so much for taking the time to read this and considering me. I’m currently working towards my graduate degree and have a flexible daily schedule. I am able to stop by routinely (in between classes or internship commitments) to take care of your pet! I am available most weekends and weekdays. My schedule is subject to change in a few weeks with the start of a new semester. My goal is to continue the quality of care that your pet is used to. I want to reduce the amount of stress they might experience in the absence of their loving owner(s)! Keeping their routine as similar as possible is key. Meal times, walk times, crate/no crate, on/off furniture, treats, etc. are all things I try to attend to. I am open to specific requests your pet might need!

“She came at approximate time's agreed on. She was 1.5 hour late once. But I'm a little overprotective of my only feline fur child. Lol. My main irritation is she did not seem to follow feeding instructions however. I had clear instructions on everything typed up. With everything out. I know because I have caregivers who came some to check on things when she was not here. She gave my girl the dry food only apparently. And a lot of it. I do not like to feed dry food. But my girl has become very picky with eating. So I mix it up often. I had instructions for the dry, wet and freeze dried foods. I had a bag of opened food that should have lasted until my return had the instructions been followed. I bought a new bag and extra canned food so I would not have to get any food once home from my vacation. The remaining amount of the dry was not only gone but the new bag was opened and used. It appeared very little of the canned food I purchased was gone. I know Tawny does mostly boarding. But if is going to agree on drop in for cats she should follow th feeding instructions. My girl has been difficult with eating her canned food since I got home.”


“She was great! I had a change in plans and she was able to accommodate me for an extra day. My girls were happy and comfy. She made sure to spent time with them and frequently sent me pictures.”


About: I've had a pet dog for as long as I can remember. My parents taught me the value of having a happy, healthy companion and instilled a love of pets and pet care that will last a lifetime. I've interacted with a variety of dogs over the years, both in my house and in friends' houses, from small Pomeranians to medium Beagles to large Black Labs and Great Danes. I currently have a Boxer/Bulldog mix who I've had since he was 6 weeks old, so your puppy will be comfortable with me! I know that trusting me with your pet is trusting me with a member of your family, and I take that honor very seriously. I look forward to meeting your fur baby! I currently work part time sporadically throughout the day, so I have plenty of opportunities to visit your pet during the day. I also have full availability in the evenings and at night, so overnight visits are not an issue. As I mentioned, I currently have a Boxer/Bulldog mix who would love to keep your pet company! I live in a quiet neighborhood a short drive away from Clinton Dog Park, so on nice days, we can take a trip to the park and run around there as well.

About: I’ve taken care of family and friends animals since I was very young. My parents let me have my own guinea pig to take care of myself starting in kindergarten. I’ve always loved animals and will help in anyway I can. I care for my elderly pugs on a daily basis. I work as a nanny and am a student but only in the morning and they are both very flexible so I can add in my needs with animal sitting. I’m available most night as well. I will follow all the instructions listed for me to do. I like to make sure the house is spotless when the owners get home so they can relax. I will take care of the animals by doing all I can to make sure they feel safe and cared for as well.

About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of animals since I was 10, including dogs, cats, parrots, chickens, and horses, and have some dog training experience. I just graduated from college, so I have a relatively free schedule as I transition, and would love to dedicate that time to animal care! I make sure I am very attentive when seeing what the pet needs, and I make sure to accommodate for whatever recommendations my clients would like to see being done. I also have a flexible schedule and can work around whatever is needed for them to remain happy and healthy.

About: Over the past year, I have taken care and loved on many cats and dogs. Whether it be for family friends or coworkers, I am always happy to spend time with their furry friends. I hope to share my love for animals with those in need of a sitter and look forward to connecting! I am currently an assistant basketball coach at Fisher’s High School. We will be practicing every day of the week where I will need to be free from around 2:15-5:45. I am available at all times other than that! I will be very respectful to your home and your wishes as to how to care for your pet. As of now, I live with roommates so I am unable to have pets in my own home.

About: I’ve had pets growing up throughout my whole life I have over 12 years experience with taking care of cats and dogs, and all their proper needs I am Not working currently, so I am available anytime you need me throughout the day and even on the weekends I am also available. Safety is always key, the safety of the clients home and the pet so by ensuring that I’m keeping their house safe and secure while I am inside and outside of the house as well as making sure the pet has everything they need before I leave food water, toys, etc.

About: I have had all sorts of experiences with animals, including the high stress situations they come with. Our family dog growing up was blind and deaf, so that took patience for everyone, even our pup! Currently one of my dogs has seizures every now and then, so trust me when I tell you, I can handle stressful times well. I have a full time job 9 am to 6 pm, Monday thru Friday. That does not stop me from wanting to meet as many pets as possible! I prefer to not bring other pets to my own home. My dogs are friendly towards new people, not new dogs in their home. This is for my pets and your pets safety. I am fully able to come to others homes and take care of their family.

Samantha G.
“Sam is a fantastic pet sitter who treats every animal with genuine love, care, and kindness. Our pets absolutely adore her and are always excited to see her. She is incredibly reliable, always on time, and never misses a detail when it comes to their routines. Sam’s responsible and trustworthy nature gives us complete peace of mind when we’re away.”


Kaiya G.
“Kaiya is fantastic with animals, and especially with dogs! She grew up in household with no fewer than two, and most of her life with four dogs that were well cared for and very loved. After graduating from college she quickly welcomed dogs in need into her own home. She adopted a dog that was stray, near ferrel, large, and quite imposing and with time, attention, and affection transformes her into one of the most kind and well behaved dogs I have known. Kaiya knows dogs, loves dogs, and treats them with kindness and respect. I highly recommend her for pet care!”

Marisa H.
“Marisa adopted a puppy two years ago, and I have watched her develop into a fantastic dog mom these past two years. Marisa demonstrates extraordinary patience, love, and commitment to not only her dog, but all animals she meets. The first thing she does when she comes home is greet her dog, Cow, with the biggest smile. She always has time to give him plenty of love and attention. Cow has lots of special needs due to allergies, and Marisa is amazing at being accommodating and caring for anything he requires. I promise that if you hire Marisa to care for your furry friends you can expect her to provide the same level of love, attention, and care to your pets as she gives her own. I would trust her in a heartbeat to watch over my own pet, and I can guarantee you will feel the same way. Book Marisa while you can!”

Celsei W.Star Sitter

“Celsei was great! She updated me with photos, and even cleaned my kitties before giving them back. She was super sweet and made the whole process very easy.”


Phoebe H.

“Phoebe took great care of our cat while we were gone and provided updates everyday! She left the house just as clean as we had made it for her”


Abigail G.
“Abi is an amazing person, and I would trust her full heartedly anytime with the care of my two dogs. She is very reliable, kind, and consistent. She follows through with what she is asked to do, and is a diligent worker. I have had the honor of being her professor in the psychology program at our university, and she has excelled as a person and in her work throughout getting her degree. I could not recommend her more!”


Jackson M.
“Jackson has watched my dog several times both for doggy day care and overnight. Hercules loves him! He gets so excited when we drop him off and always comes home exhausted after all the playing and walks. Hercules can sometimes be a handful on walks and other sitters have struggled in the past. But Jackson is so great with Hercules, we never have any problems. We would recommend him to anyone looking for help with their pets!”
