“Ashley has been so great with Beau! It’s not always easy to find someone you can trust to take care of your fur baby when you’re not around (especially without a personal reference), but Ashley has treated mine like her own. She is flexible with her schedule and she is always very communicative and quickly responsive. She goes above to give Beau the best care and he is always happy to see her.”



“Ruth was an amazing dog walker! She went above and beyond to walk our pup. She provided updates, sent pictures and made us feel at ease while we were away. She's now our preferred dog walker :)”


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.”


About: I've breed chihuahuas an I've also rescued newborn kittens an bottle fed them. Also any animal that I find or see I feed an try to care for them. Pet care is my life an I take care of my furbabies all day. I love to rescue or help any animal in need. ❤️ I treat them like my babies or furry children. I will feed an walk or entertain any animals purposes. Safe an loved at all times.

“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!”


“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 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.

“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 had at least one dog my entire life, so over 20 years. I have experience with puppies who were just born, all the way to a pup who is 17 years old - almost as old as me! I have owned multiple dogs at a time, trained my own puppies, and have even had farm animals (cows, pigs, goats, chickens, you name it!) My family and friends have relied on me to care for their pups for years, and I have experience with over 20 breeds including (Shih Tzus, Yorkshire Terriers, Chihuahuas, English Bulldogs, Great Pyrenees, German Shepherds, Mountain Curs, Golden Doodles, Golden Retrievers, Doberman Pinchers, and many more!) I am a 23 year old newly married, dog loving girl! I have a 5 year old English bulldog of my own and her and I are the best buddies! I can assure you, your pup will be just as loved as if it was my own. I absolutely love walking dogs and taking them to the dog park (two of my faves) or simply just playing in the yard. Prior to taking care of your pup, I love for them to get familiar with me, so I will take the on a walk or play with them first. I do not offer overnight services in my personal home, but will visit your home so that your sweet pup (or cat!) feels safe and very familiar with its surroundings. I have found that relocating your pup to a place they have never been can make them very nervous, therefore I simply visit your home where your pup is at the times that you typically feed/water, and take out your pup on a normal basis!

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 grew up with all sorts of pets- dogs, rats, chinchillas, ferrets. I LOVE animals! My dog I grew up with lived to be 17. They fill my soul with joy and I will provide your pet with nothing but love, cuddles, and plenty of food and walks. I am available all summer. I do not sleep over at your house, but check in as often as possible. I plan on following all of your directions clearly and if your pet needs to be crated or gated in a certain place, I will do that. I always make sure pets are safe and healthy and away from any harmful foods/plants/etc. I am available all summer and will do my best to be flexible and as responsive as I can be. :) Mornings, afternoons, evenings, weekends, etc. I will follow the owner’s rules. Should the pet need to be crated at a certain time, I will do that. I provide plenty of walks and love.

About: I have taken care of pets since I was young, as well as growing up with my own bunch. I frequently take care of dogs when needed! I am able to stay overnight and take care of pets as well as frequently stopping in throughout my day to day and checking in on them! I make sure to keep track of the pets and make them feel as comfortable as possible while missing their owners! I make sure to play and cuddle as much as I can.

About: We're a couple who love animals of all shapes and sizes, especially cats and dogs! We have experience traveling around the U.S. as pet sitters, Megs currently works at SPCA Florida (an animal welfare nonprofit), and we have five incredible rescue cats of our own. We have experience with dogs of all ages, breeds, sizes, and temperaments. We also are comfortable caring for cats with a variety of needs and set-ups. We truly just love animals and want the best for each and every one! Megs currently works part-time and LJ has a flexible work-from-home job, which leaves us plenty of room for snuggles and walks and any other kind of pet care! We prioritize the health and well-being of our own cats at home, ensuring they have an enriching environment, high-quality food, a consistent schedule, plenty of attention, and as much play and exercise as they could want. We would love being a part of doing the same for your pets whether that's through drop-in visits or walks!

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.

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.”

She was wonderful about staying in touch with us throughout the time we were away, texting pictures and updates on how our furbabies were doing. She also brought our mail in, took our garbage can out on collection day, watered our plants and made sure the pool pump was functioning properly. She really gave us peace of mind that our pets and home were in good hands. Multiple people in our neighborhood also had Janet as their pet sitter and were also pleased with her service.”
