About: Hey, I am a huge dog person, I grew up with dogs of all sizes my whole life. They were my best friends growing up. We have one dog of our own and she is my fur baby she is completely spoiled. She loves to play with other dogs and is everyones best friend. I will care for your fur baby just like it was my own, I love to play fetch and go on walks and just sit around and cuddle giving lots of back scratches. If you choose for your dog to stay with me you won’t be sorry they’ll have a blast and get lots of love! Thanks, Katelyn I am a stay at home mom to 3 kids and one fur baby. I love opening my home up to keep dogs so they don’t have to be kept in a kennel when you have to go out of town and cannot take them! I am there home away from home! We spend lots of time outside playing fetch, cuddles indoors and lots of back scratches. My kids love dogs and love playing with them as well!!

About: Although my family has never owned a dog, I have always loved taking care of my aunts, neighbors, and family friends dogs. I always make sure to pay attention to detail when watching a dog and meet each dogs needs whether that be a walk, playing with a toy, belly rubs, or even just relaxing. As a part-time graduate student at USM, I will have time during the day for a dog walk, or to check-in on your pup! I will be available on most weekends for house and dog sitting. I am available to come to your dog and stay with him/her so they do not have to move out of their comfortable environment and stay at a new space with new people.

“Elizabeth was amazing. She was able to come drop in on two of our dogs while we dealt with having to leave for TX for a funeral. It was the 3rd funeral within a month my family was dealing with. Elizabeth was able to come meet the dogs beforehand and they loved her. Very professional and communicative.”


“Can't say enough about how comfortable and thankful I am with Janel taking care if our dog Cora. She comes in and Cora is waiting for her with a toy, that tells me me Cora is very happy with Janel !!! Cora is a large Bull Mastiff/German Shepherd mix so she could be intimidating but Janel has shown comfort with her which in turn makes Cora comfortable. I can see the joy in Cora's reactions with her. Thank you Janel we are so happy we found you💕”

“Haley did a great job looking after my 3 pups. She came 3 times per day to feed them and let them out. She also played ball with them to give them some exercise. I do appreciate her help and would book her again in the future.”


About: Animals are genuinely my passion, hence why I’m going to school to work with them full time; I used to want to be a Veterinarian, but my life path has since changed because of my internship at the NEW Zoo in Green Bay. I've always had a soft spot for dogs and furry creatures of all sorts, but growing up outside I fell in love the scaly, slimy, and six legged friends as well. I had a few reptiles growing up and currently own a mildly venomous snake, so I thought a Zookeeper might be more my path; working with exotic animals is definitely my dream! I just graduated with a Bachelor’s of Science in Animal Science with a companion animal emphasis, meaning the pets we have in our homes is what I specialize in! I worked on and off at a dog day care in De Pere, WI for three years, along with personally owning small breeds to extra-large breeds, I believe I'm quite knowledgeable in the pet world! My roommate's and cousin's dogs know me as the "toy person" because I'm always there to have a good time. I also have and adore cats, along with any pet for that matter! Animals are what makes MY world go round and I don’t know where I’d be without them, I love all animals! The job market is insane right now, and no matter how many jobs I apply to they always find someone else to fill the position or never respond in the first place, so my schedule is WIDE OPEN! Whatever you need me to do I will! I love being outside, so walks, the dog park, just hanging out or even hiking can all be accomplished. I’m trained in nail trimming (including cats and larger rodents) and any basic grooming needs, like baths and teeth brushing, so I can do those as well! I love to just play with animals, so give me a dog or cat toy and I’ll sit in the floor with them for hours. And whatever schedule you feed/ have bathroom breaks/ walk your animals on I can guarantee I will stick to that schedule!

I treat every pet like my own, and I’m always happy to send updates so you can relax knowing your best friend is in great hands. Let’s chat—I’d love to meet you and your pet! I’m a stay-at-home pet lover with a flexible schedule and a warm, pet-friendly home. I offer boarding, walks, drop-in visits, and daycare—all in a calm, caring environment where your pet will be treated like family. Because I’m home full-time, I can give your dog plenty of attention and companionship throughout the day. Looking forward to welcoming your pet into our pack! I live in a home with a fenced backyard that’s perfect for safe play and potty breaks. I also share my home with a couple of my own dogs who are super chill, friendly, and get along great with other pets of all shapes and sizes.

About: I have cared for all sorts of animals growing up such as dogs, cats, horses, and chickens. We have a pet pot belly pig, Dumplin, who I've taught a few tricks 😊. I have trained a few dogs (puppy-adult) however I am not a certified/professional trainer; I just have a passion for connecting with dogs. If your pet needs someone to stop by to interact with, let out to potty, give medication, walk, brush, etc. then look no further. I will be happy to help! I currently work a full-time job, so as of right now I'm available on the weekends. I would be open to drop in after work if need be. (after 5pm) The type of care is dependent upon the species and/or breed. I will abide by the routine you and fur babies are used to. With a little extra play time of course 😋

About: I’ve Been around Dogs for most of my life. From my dogs to my neighbors and friends dogs. I have a very strong passion for animals because of it. I’m mostly home with my pets..

“Amazing communication! Took great care of my doggy! I will book her again. I highly recommend she even brought my packages in and cleaned up my doggy’s accidents! ⭐️⭐️”




Katelyn R.Star Sitter
“Katelyn R. is very responsible and caring, and loves dogs! I highly recommend her! She has kept 2 of our dogs & has always given top quality service to them and loved on them. She has a really big back yard; spacious enough for many dogs! In fact, we had Katelyn help up pick out a dog for our daughter because we valued her opinion in seeing her past care & knowledge about dogs. She baths them, gives them the attention they need, and is a stay-at-home mom which makes her available for the pets she keeps. Katelyn is reliable, honest, & patient. Your pets would be in good hands and loved.”

Chloe A.
“Chloe has had a loving connection to animals her entire life with her first dog being a pit Bull. Chloe is currently attending college in the Pre-Veterinary program to fulfill the dream she had had since 5 years old to become a Veterinarian. Chloe has cared for her own pets through her life including: 3 dogs, 2 cats, 1 bird, 2 Guinea pigs, 2 hamsters, 2 geckos, and many fish. She also worked at Sit & Stay Pet Resort while in high school which she loved. In my opinion Chloe knows more about animals than most people because she does her research on each pet before she decides to add them to her home. She is a 4.0 student studying to be a Vet because animals are her passion. Chloe would make an incredible Rover team member!! Thank you.”
