When taking care of any animal, I treat them like my own. That said, if I don't think I will have enough time to provide ample pet care I will let you know because it would not be fair for me, you, or your pet.

Safety, trust & environment

I do not provide pet care in my home as I am not able to being pets back home with me but have transportation to get to client's homes. My pet care consists of advice from the owner about the pet's routine as well as long walks, cuddling sessions, and fun play time. All of which can be seen through pictures if the client wishes.

Information Starla M. would like to know about your pet

Does your pet get along with other pets? Does your pet have any underlying health issues? Are there any unique parts of your pet's routine?

A typical day

I love to take pets I'm taking care of on walks around a park, around a lake, and/or on a trail. Some activities that we might get to do together is visit a dog park, play catch, and/or other fun things that your pet loves to do!

Best care for your 4-legged friend

Pet care experience

I have grown up with animals my whole life: dogs, cats, hamsters, chickens, you name them! What I have come to learn is that I love taking care of all kinds of animals. However my favorite kind of animal would have to be dogs-taking them for walks, grooming them, and playing with them. For the past couple of years I have been helping my grandparents take care of their Black Lab, Pepper. I walk Pepper everyday, feed her, and most importantly give her a bunch of belly rubs. I also have recently been taking care of my friend’s husky, Lilo. Lilo is a lot more active than Pepper, so I take him on runs instead of walks. I also shower him with a lot of attention and belly rubs. What sets me apart from other sitters and walkers is I’m super flexible with my schedule and I am also very versatile. I’m free almost all the time to dog sit or walk dogs. I’m also very versatile with dogs. What I mean by that is if your dog is very active then I can run with him/her or I can walk (depending on the dog’s abilities). Additionally I am able to provide baths to the dog if the owner sees fit.

I was very happy with the service and care that Starla provided my dog. She and Jubilee got on very well, and I returned to a home just the way I left it. Thank you, Starla!

We were a little nervous about using Rover again given a past experience, but Starla was amazing! Hulk is our baby and we look for someone that can give him the time and attention he is accustomed to, and Starla certainly met those needs. She was communicative, sent photos and updates, and most importantly just loved on him while we were away. I look forward to being able to work with her again.

Starla took great care of my dog & cat while we were away for 2 days. She walked my Dallas boy twice a day and followed a special diet since he got diarrhea literally the night before I left. She also watered my plants and took great care of the house. Thanks Starla, we appreciate you!
