1. Olivia S.
“Olivia has grown up with dogs. Of all my kids I don’t think any of them loved our dogs more. And, they always loved her too. Sometimes I used to think that the dogs just thought she was one them. If you’re looking for someone to look after your dogs Olivia would be a great choice.”

5. Samantha H.

“I can't say enough good things about Samantha! She was absolutely incredible with my two kitties. Samantha arrived at reasonable times twice a day to feed them while I was away, and her attention to detail was impressive. She listened to all my instructions carefully, ensuring my fur babies were well taken care of. It was clear that the kitties loved her! I would give her a 10/10 and highly recommend her to anyone in need of a cat/pet sitter!”


6. Lee N.


“My doggo Ace was well cared for, walked regularly, and had a lot of fun. Lee was attentive, great at updating throughout the day and sending pictures. He was also very accommodating and helpful with arranging our check-ins last minute and that meant the world! Lee is also very patient, he let me know when and why Ace would act up and was still more than willing to caretake. I know my Ace enjoyed his time with Lee from the big smiles I got at every checkin. 110% recommend booking with him!”

8. Anthony J.
“As a neighbor, I have watched Anthony walk and take care of his own dog for many years. Often I have said his dog has no idea just how lucky he is with Anthony as his Dad. Rest assured your dog will be in good hands if Anthony is walking them or taking care of them for any length of time.”

10. Nikita S.
About: I have grown up taking care of my two dogs. I would feed, wash them, and give them bathes almost every day of the week. After school I would play with them and make sure they were okay. I was always on top of everything; for example, making sure they have all their shots. I am a very responsible and nurturing person, which results to me being very happy to be able to take care of dogs. I currently take care of one cat all by myself. She is fully my responsible and I take care of her every single day by feeding her, playing with her, giving her love and attention, cleaning her litter box, and occasionally grooming her. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to take care of your loved ones. I am also a very adaptable person and can accommodate you in however you need.

13. alejando p.

“Alejandro was absolutely amazing with my cat throughout the entire pet-sitting period. From the very beginning, he showed incredible care, professionalism, and a genuine love for animals, making me feel completely at ease leaving my cat in his hands. He went above and beyond to ensure my cat felt comfortable, happy, and well-cared for, treating them as if they were his own. Every day, he provided thoughtful updates, sharing detailed messages about how my cat was doing, along with plenty of adorable pictures and videos. His communication was outstanding, and I never once had to wonder how things were going, he always kept me in the loop. Beyond his reliability and attentiveness, Alejandro’s warm and kind personality truly shined. My cat absolutely adored him, and it was evident from the way they interacted that he took the time to play, engage, and build a bond with them. Knowing that my cat was not only being well taken care of but also enjoying quality time with someone so caring made all the difference. Alejandro was always punctual, responsible, and extremely respectful of my home, making the entire experience seamless and stress-free. It’s rare to find someone as dedicated, trustworthy, and compassionate as he is. I can’t recommend him highly enough to anyone in need of an exceptional pet sitter, he is, without a doubt, a STAR Sitter!”

About: With over 5 years of experience caring for dogs of all sizes and temperaments, I treat every pet like family. I’ve worked with puppies still learning the ropes, seniors who need a gentle touch, and energetic dogs who love long walks. My background includes volunteer work at a local animal shelter, plus experience with basic training, medication administration, and managing multi-pet households. What sets me apart is my ability to tune into your pet’s unique personality and needs—whether that means extra playtime or a calm, cuddly evening. I’ll send regular updates, photos, and always go the extra mile to make sure your fur baby is happy and safe. I currently have a flexible weekday and weekend schedule, which allows me to dedicate focused time to pet care morning, afternoon, and evening. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine—I’m always out walking, visiting parks, or spending time with animals. Whether it’s daily drop-ins, overnights, or extended stays, I can easily tailor my schedule to meet your pet’s needs and give them the care and attention they deserve. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. In your home, I maintain their usual routine and environment to minimize stress and help them feel secure. I always keep a close eye on their behavior, watch for signs of stress or discomfort, and maintain a clean, pet-safe space. For walks, I stick to safe, familiar routes and use secure harnesses and leashes. You can trust me to care for your pet as if they were my own—responsibly, lovingly, and with lots of belly rubs (if they’re into that!).

20. Alex K.
“Alex is an excellent pet caregiver! She grew up with at least three border collies in her house most of her life. She helped one of her dogs Sierra give birth and even resuscitated one of the puppies… who eventually became a member of the family! She has frequently dog sat growing up and is a very active person who will ensure a good walk for the dog! Any task she’s given she takes full responsibility over and will make sure it is done with the best of her ability!”
