About: Hello there! My name is Maria! I'm a huge animal lover and would love to take care of yours when you're not able to! I've always loved animals and have had dogs since I was 3 years old. I have experience with puppies to senior dogs, and more aggressive dogs to shy dogs. I also have experience in transporting dogs, giving them walks, feeding, giving medications, and I have some experience with training dogs as well. I have trained dogs to sit, roll over, shake, lay down, not to beg and not to pull on a leash. I have watched dogs for family and friends. I also walk dogs and dog sit professionally. My typical day involves school, studying, and dog walking. I love to play and have fun with dogs. I also love to play frisbee and fetch with pups! I know how important your pet is to you. They aren't "pets," they're family. I will do everything to make sure that they are comfortable, feel safe, and have a good time until they get to see you again!

“Loni has been phenomenal with our fur baby! ❤️ She’s so kind and patient as we have been learning our routines. She’s very attentive to details and committed to providing us with the best experience for our pup. :)”


“Ariel did an amazing job with my boys! My blue heeler can be finicky around new people and take time to warm up. She took time to hang out with him until he was comfortable. They are always in a good mood when they come back from their walks so I know they had a great time! Thank you, Ariel!”


About: I’ve been around animals from a very young age and am currently employed at a vet, daycare, and boarding company! Most of my time and energy comes a spent on animal welfare and I am a strong advocate for proper animal care! I am currently a part time student and I have a part time job, with the costs of college and living expensive I wanted to find a hustle that I knew I would be adequate for. Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays will mainly be for school but if time allows I will be able to squeeze in Dog walks and or feedings etc… I am a very respectful person when it comes to others belongings and property. Homes and pets are not cheap and I would never put the owners home at risk by being careless, if in a situation where I was in a owners home I would simply do my job and nothing more or less.

I did have a hiatus from Rover due to increased work demands but now I'm currently "retired" as a SAHM. I am comfortable caring for animals with special needs or medications, young or old. Since I'm currently a SAHM, my daily schedule simply consists of school drop-off/pick-up for my kids and an occasional grocery trip so I am very available for the pups I'm caring for. In our home, pets are allowed on furniture and get plenty of loving throughout the day from my kids. We do have a fully fenced backyard. For any care at your home, it's entirely up to you. Free run in the backyard, leashed walk around the neighborhood, crate, no crate. Just let me know! If booked for house sitting - I do *not* stay the night but will drop in 3 times throughout the day (morning, afternoon, evening).

Carolyne T.
“I can’t recommend Carolyne Tsilimos highly enough! She took amazing care of my pets while I was away, and I felt completely at ease knowing they were in such good hands. She checked in regularly with thoughtful updates and photos, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear from the start that my dogs and cat were extremely comfortable around her — they warmed up to her immediately, and that’s not always the case! Carolyne is reliable, attentive, and clearly has a natural connection with animals. I truly appreciated her communication, care, and the extra attention she gave to making sure everyone was happy and healthy. I’ll absolutely be turning to her again the next time I need a sitter!”

Rebekah M.Star Sitter
“I have two dogs, a beagle and an Australian shepherd, and I knew they were in great hands from the moment I first met Rebekah! She has dogs of her own, and the level of care she provides reflects that. She made sure to send pictures when I asked for them, and the dogs LOVED her. They even whined when she left! She was great, and I would recommend her to anyone looking for amazing care for their fur babies.”
