“Mikayla did a fabulous job sitting for my fur babies! She sent pics and updates often and kept me at ease during my trip. This was the first time I had ever left my dogs with anyone other than family so I was very nervous. But she assured me they were having a good time and we're safe. I would definitely book her again!”
“Christian was amazing with our 4 dogs!!! He kept us up to date every day on how they where an that eased my mind so much!!! They dogs love playing outside with him so much an that made for good nap times an better bed time!!!”

“Great sitter! I’ve worked with Nikayla a few times now and she’s been great! I do not worry about the safety or well being of my pups when she’s taking care of them! I will continue to book with Nikayla! She’s great!”
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.

“Christina was great with our dog and cat. She kept to their schedules and stayed at our place for several nights. You couldn't even tell she had been here. We wouldn't hesitate to use her again.”
About: I’m an animal lover who enjoys playing and cuddling with fur babies. I’m open to meeting the individual and unique needs of every animal I care for. I enjoy creating my own schedule and prioritize care into my routine to soothe, comfort, entertain and provide basic needs for every animal in my care. My availability are weekends and afternoons. Routine schedules for feeding, potty and play time are ideal so I and the animals know what’s coming, if you have a routine set I will gladly flow with what’s already in place.
“Jyana was a quick response and great at keeping us up to date on the pets’ day. She kept to their routine perfectly and gave them lots of cuddles. Even my very shy cat felt comfortable enough to make an appearance to her towards the end of the day. She was polite and a wonderful house guest as well; I highly recommend and would ask her help in the future”
“Alison was great! It was our first time leaving our golden, and his first time spending even a night without his mom or dad. I work from home 99% of the time and he’s a true Velcro dog, following me everywhere. So I was very worried about how he’d do without me, and vice versa. Alison was great with him and made time to come for a few walks in the weeks before we left so she and Santo could get to know each other a bit. After we left she checked in with us and sent us photos and updates about our baby, which helped me worry less about whether he was feeling sad or abandoned. She was respectful of our home and even asked before signing into a streaming account we don’t have. And when we got stuck in nightmare traffic on I-4 on the way home from the airport, she stayed past the time booked for our stay so Santo wasn’t alone.”
“Felicia was so great watching our dog! She offered to do a meet and greet beforehand which was really helpful in making me more comfortable with having her in our home and seeing that our dog was okay with her. Felicia took pictures and some videos everyday, and sent them to us. She took Abby on a few hikes/walks and I really appreciated her involvement in doing that. I totally recommend Felicia! We’ll book her again!”
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!
“I hired Rachelle to house sit with my Corgi for Labor Day weekend. She kept me updated throughout the weekend and sent lots of pictures. I would love to use her again in the future!”
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.
“Joy was wonderful to my two pups! She kept consistent communication with updates and pictures. She kept my home nice and clean and treated it like it was her own. We will be re booking her! ❤️ thanks Joy!”
About: I’m the biggest pet lover I know! I frequently dog-sit and cat-sit for friends and neighbors. Throughout my life, I've had six dogs, two of whom now live with my parents. All of them have enjoyed wonderful lives! One of my special skills is out-energizing dogs during their walks. I love taking them around the lake and enjoying my neighborhood! I often visit my neighbors to check on their pets, change the kitty litter, or just spend time with them—especially when they go on vacation. I also feed and walk my friend's pets. See I create a detailed list of needs and wants for the pets, all discussed with the pet owner to ensure that I understand what is required for their care. I also like to get to know both the owner and the pet before providing care. This allows me to ask questions and gather the necessary information to properly care for the pet.
“Mandie is absolutely incredible. Not only does she treat your dog like her own, but she ensures they feel loved like you would yourself. This is the second time Mandie took care of our Bean and I think we found our dog sitter for life. She sends so many pictures and videos and Bean is always so happy when she comes over to see him — I mean really, he gets more excited for her to come over than when my husband and I come home 😅. Mandie is also just a joy of a person who is punctual, clean, flexible with our hectic schedules and we are always happy to have her sit at our house. Seriously don’t think twice, and book Mandie to watch your pup ASAP. You won’t regret it!”
About: I’ve taken care of many animals. From elderly at the shelter, huskies, labradors, pit bulls, doodles & puppies to cats, chameleons etc! I work remotely and have open availability for your pup. Lover of all breeds 🐕🦺 🐩 🦮 🐕 🐈 🦎 🐹 I am a corporate manager who works from home. I have 2 playful pups in the house (both females). One pup requires frequent potty breaks - at least every 30 minutes so outside time is no problem for me. I have a crate if/when needed. My pups sleep in the room with me uncrated and allowed on couch/bed. We keep our house cleaned and is puppy proof (crazy goldendoodle owner here). We do not have a fence but I’ve had huskies who tried to run away any chance they’ve had in the past, so am very careful with the door and leashes - even if the pup is trained off leash. Non smoke home, no kids or cats. Just 2 female pups who love other pups.
“This is our 2nd time booking Luciano and we felt so comfortable having our dogs in his care while we were away. It made our vacation that much more enjoyable. We will definitely book again!”

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.”

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!”

We give Sia our highest possible rating and recommendation. We asked her again as a Home Sitter for our dog over the weekend. She is the BEST you could ask for. She is exceptionally professional, trustworthy, and a very good communicator. When need arises, we definitely hire her again. Our Dog also recommends Sia.
April is great. This is our 2nd time hiring her to care for our 2 dogs and 3 cats. They love her and she goes above and beyond . She takes care of our house also, brings in the mail and packages makes sure everyone is safe and sound. We would recommend her to our family and friends she deserves more than 5 stars.. We will be using her again .Thank you April
Madison made us feel so comfortable leaving our pets for a weekend away! Our doggie had to be on medications this go around and I almost didn’t want to leave her but I trust Madison so much and she did a great job with her care and gave us lots of updates. She’s just the best and all three of our girls love her!!
Janet did a fantastic job caring for our sassy corgi and our anxious hound. She is very caring, professional, and trustworthy. She provided regular updates and pictures of our pets, which was a comfort while we were away. We highly recommend Janet to care for your pets.
Marissa was excellent! Not only did she take great care of my boy, but she was respectful and mindful of our home while house sitting for the weekend. Kevin even got to play with her pup a little bit which was so nice! She also kept us updated with regular picture updates. Marissa will be our new go-to! Thanks!
