“Ruth has been so wonderful with my puppy Zoey. It's my first puppy and my first time using a sitter so I am so grateful to know that there is an agency with kind and pet loving people that are willing to help people like me. Thank you again Ruth.”
“Matthew was absolutely amazing with my dog! From the start, he was professional, communicative, and kind. He followed all instructions perfectly, sent great updates and photos, and went above and beyond to make sure my dog was comfortable and happy. I’ll definitely be booking with Matthew again—highly recommend!”
About: Here is $20 off your first booking!!! KYLIU82403 I have two dogs of my own and am looking forward to taking care of your best friend!! I have a fully fenced in yard with a dog pool and what feels like a million toys! I have had dogs and cats my whole life and really enjoy taking care of them. I will keep in contact with daily pictures and good communication. I am on a set schedule for work but also work 10 minutes from home and can go home if needed. There is a dog park in my community and I also have a backyard! Like I mentioned I have two of my own dogs so your dog will be treated like my own! I do not plan anything without the dogs in mind. I have two friendly dogs and one friendly cat at my house and there is a lot of playing happening 24/7. I check on them often throughout the day!
About: I’m interested in this position because pets have a soft spot in my heart. I grew up with two dogs and four cats. We sometimes let in strays as well. I was the one responsible for feeding my pets and cleaning up the litter box. My own canine family started when I was 18. I have experience with dogs with diabetes, orthopedic reconstruction and chronic systemic arthritis. I am confident that I can care for and love on your pet while you’re away so you have few concerns about your loved one. I have a very flexible schedule. I am a stay at home mom of teenagers. I have the ability to care for your pet based on your schedule and needs. I offer care in the client’s home. I will follow the instructions the client tells me. My own dog has such a schedule and routine of when to go out vs eating so I completely understand the need for routine. I will always make sure safety comes first. If there isn’t a fence then I would prefer to have the pet on a leash. I would never want a pet getting loose and running off.
About: I’ve had dogs and cats all of my life. I have always been the go to sitter for friends and family. I am especially experienced with senior dogs and understand the patience, gentleness and extra care they need. I’ve also trained my own pets from a young age, so I’m comfortable working with both older and energetic puppies. Above all, my husband and I treat every pet like family. I work full-time, and my husband is an independent worker with a flexible schedule, so we tag team pet care throughout the day. Our routine allows us to provide check ins and potty breaks approximately every 2-4 hours. We make sure pets are never left alone for too long and always have the attention they need. We’re also available on weekends and happy to accommodate your pets usual routine as closely as possible. Safety and trust are my top priorities. While I have an unfenced yard, I always use leash and supervise pets closely during outdoor time. I have a calm home environment with open space for pets to walk, play and relax. My senior chihuahua has their own separate room, which helps maintain a peaceful setting and allows me to keep visiting pets comfortable and safe.

“April is wonderful! All three of my fur babies took an immediate liking to her. My pup is a bit shy, but by day 2 was offering up her belly for rubs! She is our go to from here on out.”
“Rachelle was so responsive and made me feel so comfortable! It is my first time ever using Rover & I’m glad that she was available. Definitely will be using her services again! Highly recommend!”
About: I completed a four year veterinary program in high school on top of being a lifetime animal lover who tries to gain as much general animal information as possible. With this I have basic skills and knowledge on how to handle dogs professionally. At college, I am my dog’s full time caretaker as well as taking care of three dogs total at home. I love dogs of all sizes and ages! I plan on working part time for the summer, but whenever I am not working I am available! My weekly schedule cannot be known until my job posts when I work but I will be able to communicate specifics. I will comply to and rules and regulations that the owners put in place for their animals. I cannot work out of my own home but am more than willing to pet sit or do drop in at the owners home, where their dog will more likely be at home.
“Cassidy was very accommodating, flexible and kind with my fur babies. It was their first time left alone all day in a very long time and my first time using the app and Cassidy was patient with my new navigation of this process and tender hearted to my lonely doggie. Warmed my heart that she sat with my girl and encouraged her to eat her meal even though she was missing her momma. I even needed to add an extra walk when my day went unexpectedly late, and this was no issue.”
About: I have cared for dogs for over 30 years. Mine, friends etc. I have watched dogs, cats, lizards, bunnies. Please no snakes. No issue with multiple animals. I do ask that if the dogs are more than 25 lbs they walk easily without pulling on the leash. I have physical limitations and cannot safely handle strong pulling dogs for walks. This is my full time job. If I have availability I can help you. I am open for last minute bookings because I don’t have another job. I only care for dogs in the clients home. If a situation arose where I needed to care for a dog in my home I have a fully fenced large back yard and a crate for them to feel comfortable in.
“Kylee took excellent care of our dog Lady and cat Scamp. She sent us pics of Lady doing her happy dance post walk and let us know each time she was arriving and departing. I would book Kylee's services again in a heartbeat.”
About: I have a lot of experience taking care of all dogs from breeding to just having pets. I have lots of knowledge when it comes to medical issues with dogs due to my experience with breeding and owning older animals. I work remotely so your animal will have someone home with them all hours of the day! I can take dogs for walks and to the dog park. They will also be able to play with my animals. I will take care of your animals as if they are my own. I love taking care of them and going for walks. They will have plenty of play time and walks.
“Cameron was such a great choice for our fur baby. She was very communicative and always kept in touch and sent photos. she helped so much and was very sweet and our baby. We loved her would definitely recommend her and will definitely reach out again in the future. :)”
About: I have not only owned dogs my whole life but i am in school to work with a variety of animals and have learned so much about different behaviors and caring for different breeds. I have worked in an animal hospital as well as volunteered at several shelters. I have waked neighbors dogs and stayed overnights at family friends to care for their pets for as long as i can remember and am no stranger to the importance of good communication with the owner when they are away from their beloved pet. I have an unusual schedule for work where i conduct data collection on a boat but when i am not at sea then i am able to help out with any pet care needs so just reach out and i can communicate my availability! Unfortunately i do not know far in advance when i will have to work for my job so it is hard to book out for pet care far in advanced. I have cared for many different breeds of dogs with a variety of energy levels and needs. My own huskies have taught me to be extra aware of my surroundings and where they are in relation to what is around as they would try to run off after wild animals and get themselves lost often when they were younger.
About: I’ve lived my whole life with dogs, so caring for them comes naturally to me. From spotting subtle signs of their needs to keeping them happy with playtime and walks, I know how to provide a safe, loving environment. Your pup will be in great hands with me! I work from home and can ensure there is plenty of time during the day to care for your pet! Since I can work anywhere, I can dedicate more time to this task and ensure your pet is being enriched and protected. Coming to your home, I would ensure only the task at hand is my priority. Whatever guidelines you set for allowing me into your home, I would follow with integrity. Your pet would be cared for as if they were my own!

When I come to your home, I maintain your schedule and training routines that your pet is accustomed to.

Shelisha F.Star Sitter
“Shelisha is a caring and compassionate person towards people and pets. She has this ability to connect with animals that is truly amazing and endearing. They seem to establish a connection with her almost instantly. I think it has to do with how sensitive towards her and the animal's emotions she is and animals are able to pick up on that. Shelisha has been a great care giver to many pets in the past and will continue to deliver this with a positive frame of mind.”

Jyana T.
“Jyana is a great choice to walk your dogs or just look after them. Her own dog is always beautifully maintained and well behaved, as well as spoiled and healthy. I trust her entirely with my difficult corgi who has reactivity towards dogs and men as well as typical corgi attitude problems. She also does very well with my cat and respects his boundaries but still loves up on him when he wants it. She is very responsible and reliable and has a great response time. She has had experience working at a vet and is studying animals. She is also very respectful and adaptable to any plans and communications.”

I highly recommend Kira to anyone looking for a trustworthy, experienced, and caring dog sitter.”
Sarah L.
“I’ve trusted Sarah to care for my cat, Ruthie, and my dog, Nico, on numerous occasions. Each time, they’ve both been happy and excited to see her—evident by the tail wagging and head bumps they immediately greet her with. She treats them like they’re her own and knows exactly how to approach them to make them feel safe and loved. And when my cat exceeds her petting limit, Sarah always respects her boundaries. Every time I leave them with her, I know they’ll be taken care of just the way I would. Sarah is punctual, organized, and on top of loving your fur babies, she’ll make sure all their needs are met. I would highly recommend her as a pet sitter to anyone!”
