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.

We were very happy with Starla dog sitting our little Goldendoodle and our cat! Our pets were well taken care of and warmed up to her in a short period of time! Our house remained clean as we left it and we would definitely recommend her to others looking for a pet sitter and we also would use her again if needed!

Starla did a phenomenal job!! She was a great communicator and was respectful of our home. We received daily updates on each pup including cute pics of them. I would hire Starla again in a heartbeat.

Excellent house sitter! Very attentive to our pets' needs. Including seizure medications, and helping during another seizure while we were gone. Cleaning up after them, etc. Kept us informed of any changes as well as providing regular updates. We have used many sitters over the decades, and she has been the most thorough and thoughtful. Hope she continues to do this work in this geographical area for a long time!
