About: I’m a former first responder and military veteran. 25+ years of hands-on experience caring for dogs from playful pups to seniors and special needs pets. I’ve worked with breeds from tiny Chihuahuas to giant Cane Corsos and English Mastiffs, and I’ve given both oral meds and injections when needed. I picked up practical dog handling skills during my time in the military, and I’ve raised and trained my own pets since I was a kid. Today, I share life with my own sweet dog, and every pet I care for gets the same love, patience, and respect I give my own. Whether they need structure, snuggles, or just someone calm and steady, I’m here to make them feel safe and happy. I’m home full time and available most hours of the day including weekends. I can easily fit into your pet’s routine. Whether your pets needs a lunchtime potty break, morning walk, or evening snuggles, I’m here when you need me. I provide a pet-friendly environment in a great neighborhood just minutes from Mill Creek Park (3 min) and the dog park (10 min). Whether I’m in my home or yours, I focus on keeping pets comfortable, safe, and cared. I follow any instructions closely, keep routines consistent, and always give each pup the patience and love they deserve.

About: I have had dogs all my life, mostly German Shepards, the one I currently have I was there helping the mom to give birth! She is also very well trained! I know it’s hard to leave them so let me give you peace of mind! I am looking to help those who may be working mornings Monday -Friday. I would be available as early at 7 but no later than 5 I will keep your fury friend company, sending pictures to you to give reassurance and take care of any other needs your pet may have!

About: I have taken care of family pets since I was young. As I grew older, I adopted my own pets and have volunteered in animal shelters as well. I have always had dogs and cats in my life and it has grown to guinea pigs and a bearded dragon. I'm able to give baths, do walks, and bathroom breaks and provide ample amounts of play time. I am available for Labor Day weekend! I am also a full time stay at home mother so currently all of my days and times of the week are free and open, even weekends. I let all of my animals on my furniture if they want in my home. They all have their special homes and spots where they can be in peace until they come out with the rest of the family. My home is kept clear of dangerous items, tiny small toys for example that pets might eat.

About: Hello! My name is Chelsea and I have lived a life with love for all animals in my heart very fruitfully. I personally have two large breed dogs of my own, and one hamster. I’m not shy when it comes to types, ages, or sizes of animals. I am the first person my family and friends leave their animals with because they know that they will find their dogs sleeping next to me on the couch, treated like royalty and family. I work with rescue agencies as well as fostering agencies to ensure stable homes, donated needs are being met, and daily play time is available. I own a large home with a fenced in backyard. I have experience with special needs animals as well. All drop off pets MUST be okay with other dogs. No exceptions!! If you need last minute overnight care you MUST provide the crate, food, and other necessary items. I cannot host puppies without their crates in my home. Please make sure your pets are up to date on their vaccines as well as their preventative medicines! Prices have been adjusted due to rising gas prices. I’m sorry for this inconvenience and when they go back down so will my prices! 💕 I have open availability working around my sons school schedule. I’m a SAHM and work PRN as a nurse & clean Air BNB’s between pet clients. I am always able to work with your schedule! I have a massive fenced in yard with security cameras. All animals have free access to water in two places and feedings are timed scheduled (unless client otherwise states). My home is two stories and I am able to separate animals if need be.

About: I don’t remember a time in my life that I wasn’t taking care of animals! Whether it be while growing up or starting to dogsit/walk in high school, there was never a time a fur baby wasn’t relying on me. And I wouldn’t have it any other way! I have a flexible schedule which allows me to help out with my friends and families animals, as well as volunteer for local animal shelters. I have experience with dogs of all ages and levels of care. I know how difficult it can be to trust someone with your pet (I have used Rover myself when I go out of town) so I assure you I will provide the kind of care and attention to your pet that I would want given to my own! :) I’m currently working part time. My job offers flexible hours, so I have the opportunity to accommodate whatever schedule you and your pet require. :) I will happily go over what your pets routine is and abide by whatever you’re most comfortable with! If your dog is used to being walked at certain times, crated, etc. The well being and safety of your animal is my upmost concern so whatever you need me to do to guarantee that, is what I’ll do!

About: Hi! I’m Cass. I have been a life long animal lover. I was often the child bringing home every stray cat and dog I found. When I became a Mom and my youngest son begged us to get a dog, I was so happy. We added Rocky to our family 12 years ago and he’s been my companion ever since. We also have two cats Domino and Luna to complete our family zoo! We’d love to have new furry friends and visitors to come on our family adventures and to play with. I work from home so I am available all day for pet care needs to be able to frequently feed and bathroom breaks along with some outdoor time I have a somewhat private back yard and I will be outside with your pet at all times while they get outdoor time and use the bathroom or I am able to go to your home and walk them in their environment. I also have a nice neighborhood block area that I am able to take breaks and walk your pet.

About: I love & have always had animals around! We always had pets growing up (dogs, cats, guinea pigs, etc) and I worked as a pet sitter / dog walker with a company called Merry Puppins for about a year. Before that, I worked and volunteered with different rescues which gave me experience with a lot of different types of breeds and personalities :) I’m currently getting ready to move & will have a lot of extra free time the next month or so, my schedule is very flexible at the moment! I can do whatever is needed! My typical pet sitting visits included walking, sometimes feeding / giving medication, hanging out for a bit and then making sure they have everything they need before heading out. Every pet / home is different though!

About: I have been around dogs my entire life. I can not remember a time in my life that I didn't have a furry friend (or 2) I just really enjoy having them around.

I will follow your friends needs, and your instructions. I am currently a stay at home mom so I can work my schedule around your furry friend and your needs. I am only gone a short time to take my daughter to and from school during the school year. I live in home with a pretty decent sized backyard. I also have 2 huskies of my own who love to have new friends over. If for some reason they do not get along (because just like humans, that can happen) your furry friend will come first and my dogs will go ahead and spend time in their crates. I can also crate your friend if that is what you would like. I have no problem leaving my sliding door open for the dogs to go in and out on their own. I enjoy sitting outside and playing with my dogs, as well as yours. There is also a dog park not too far from me that I would take your friend to if that is something that you would like for me to do. I understand that sometimes dogs need a break from each other as well. They are definitely furry humans when it comes to their needs/wants/feelings. If your friend has a special diet, feeding time, or even a potty schedule I will follow that as well.

Livana M.Star Sitter
“I can't recommend Livana aka Liv enough! They truly went above and beyond while caring for my dog. Not only did they feed and walk her, but they also played with her for over an hour. Something I actually saw through my Ring cam. My dog came back exhausted and happy, which is a miracle in itself because she's usually nonstop energy! It's rare to find someone who gives that much genuine attention and care. I’ll absolutely be booking again.”
