“Jill took care of our cats during a long weekend, making sure one of them got their meds everyday. She was reliable and completed reports with photos to make sure we knew they were being well taken care of. We would book with her again!”
“When we needed someone last minute to help us out on the Fourth of July, we struck gold when Molly popped up on Rover. My two high energy pups took to her immediately. I was able to enjoy my holiday getaway knowing that my boys would be well taken care of. Molly took the dogs on a hike, played with them and fed them, and she sent me lots of photos. She was prompt and professional, with excellent communication throughout. Highly recommend.”
About: I have been working as a veterinary technician for 3 years. I have experience taking care of dogs of all sizes, age, and breed along with feline friends :) I work full time as a veterinary technician from 8:30/9-6 and every other Saturday 9-2. I would be available after work and anytime on the weekends! I am unable to care for pets within my home as a I have a non friendly dog. As a pet care professional, I provide tailored services for pets in their own homes. I ensure that feeding, hydration, exercise, medication, and safety needs are met. I will provide regular updates to keep clients informed. Compassion, attention to detail, and a nurturing environment are my top priorities for your fur babies.
“Cheryl took great care of my two cats while I was on a two week vacation. She handled food, water, treats, litter, and play just right. From the meet and greet, I could tell she has a sweet and gentle touch and really understands how to relate to cats. Her thorough updates including photos kept me confident that they were in good hands.”
About: I have 5 acres of wooded land that we made a trail in just for our dogs. The last of who has just passed. Would love to see paw prints in the trail again. I am a stay at home mom. With my youngest now in high school. So besides the occasional appointment and nature walk. I am usually home all week. As far as walking. I love walking all the dog friendly trails. Even if it’s to see other dogs. We are a dog friendly home with gates on our deck so that pups can enjoy the outdoors even more.
About: I love playing with and care for cats and dogs. I've trained my cat to go outside on a harness and leash and to do a few tricks! I'm a teacher currently on summer vacation and I have a lot of flexibility in my schedule to come and care for and play with your pet. At this time, I would come to your house to provide care for your pet because I have my own cat at my house who doesn't get along well with others.
About: Pet Care Experience: I’ve been raised with dogs my entire life, and I also have three years of hands-on experience at a doggie boarding and daycare facility. I’m comfortable working with dogs of all types, from reactive dogs to high-energy pups. I understand the importance of positive reinforcement and am experienced in meeting the dietary and exercise needs of dogs. What Sets Me Apart: What truly sets me apart is my genuine compassion for animals. I offer a personalized experience, whether it’s hiking to burn off energy, providing calm and comfort for reactive dogs, or ensuring senior pups get the special care they need. My expertise in stimulating high-energy dogs and my knowledge of their specific needs makes me the perfect choice for your dog’s next adventure or stay! Pet care is an integral part of my daily routine. I make sure to schedule time for walks, play sessions, and one-on-one attention for each animal I care for. Whether it’s getting up early to take a dog on a hike or spending extra time with a shy cat to build trust, I always prioritize their needs. I’m flexible and able to adapt to different schedules, ensuring pets get the love and care they deserve, no matter what else is going on in my day. In my home, I create a comfortable, pet-friendly environment where animals can thrive. For dogs, that means daily hikes, interactive play sessions, and plenty of cuddle time. I make sure each dog gets the exercise and attention they need to feel happy and secure. For cats, I adjust the atmosphere to their personality—whether it’s quiet, cozy space for a shy cat or active playtime to keep a kitten entertained. I’m also experienced with dietary needs, allergies, and administering medications if necessary. When caring for pets in your home, I treat it as an extension of my own. I make sure their routines are kept intact, from feeding schedules to favorite activities. I believe in providing consistent care that allows them to feel safe and comfortable, just as they would in their own home. Whether it’s a dog who loves to hike or a cat who needs extra TLC, I’m committed to offering personalized care tailored to each pet’s needs. I’m also skilled at handling reactive animals, training, and ensuring each pet’s emotional well-being is prioritized. My years of experience with both kittens and senior cats, combined with my ability to train and manage high-energy dogs, makes me stand out. I’m not just a pet sitter—I’m a pet caretaker who goes above and beyond to ensure your pets are happy, healthy, and loved while you’re away.
About: Always had dogs & cats as a kid. Always loved it too! I worked with them for years and years and got a good overall feel/sense for various types and breeds, situations etc. I started taking care of neighbors pets, then friends too, and once Covid shut down our family stores, it gave me a chance to continue doing what I love, working with animals! I especially enjoy the challenge of winning over dogs that are timid, uncomfortable, anxious, have been abused, etc. I love proving to them that they're Safe. Everythings alright. Its ok to relax. Some are nervous around me or arent great with adults/males/strangers etc. That's Ok! Please see my reviews, Thanks for your consideration! My day totally revolves around my clients. They come First! Depending on what care I have to give to each animal. I'm around all the time otherwise! I take countless precautions to assure the safety of anyone and everyone that will be involved in my care for my clients. I keep an eye on them all day and night!
About: I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life and have always loved caring for them. Whether it’s going for long walks, playing outside, or just spending quality time together, I genuinely enjoy being around dogs and making sure they’re happy and well cared for. I understand how important it is to keep pets active, loved, and safe, and I treat every dog like they’re part of the family. As a teacher currently on summer break, I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to pet care. My days are open, so I’m available for walks, drop-ins, or extended stays throughout the week. I love having the opportunity to spend my break doing something I enjoy—being active, outdoors, and taking care of pets. It’s the perfect way to combine my love for animals with my free time during the summer months. When school starts, I’m available after 3pm. When caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, comfortable, and fun environment. I have a fenced yard where dogs can run and play freely under supervision, which gives them a great outlet for exercise and fresh air. Inside, pets have plenty of space to relax and feel at home. I follow each pet’s routine as closely as possible, whether that means regular walks, feeding schedules, playtime, or cuddles. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and routines, making sure their pets feel secure and cared for while maintaining consistency in their daily lives.

Erin D.Star Sitter
“If you are looking for someone to look after your fur babies who is loving, reliable, caring, loyal, and all the above.. Erin is absolutely your person. The love she has for animals is unmatched. Erin became my hero when she watched my dog for 3 months while I was away for work. The endless love and care she poured into my dog speaks volumes. She has 5 acres of land that her and her husband intentionally created a trail for her animals to run/walk around to burn off some energy. She has gates on her porch for them to be able to enjoy sun bathing and fresh air. I cannot recommend Erin enough. Your search for a fur baby step-parent ends here!”

Halle C.
“My dog Luna is a rocket ship on four legs—nonstop energy, constant stimulation needs, and a brain that never turns off. Most sitters are overwhelmed by her within the hour. But Halle? Halle thrives with dogs like Luna. From the second they met, she matched her energy with warmth, creativity, and control. She didn’t just wear Luna out—she fulfilled her. Halle had Luna hiking trails, learning new tricks, sniffing enrichment puzzles, and burning energy in all the right ways. She understood that Luna didn’t just need a walk—she needed a mission, a job, a partner. And she became that. Halle never treated her like she was “too much.” She treated her like she was worth the effort. And trust me—she is. I came home to a happy, centered dog who was mentally and physically satisfied. Halle brings intention and patience to every minute with high-drive dogs like Luna. If your pup is a handful, she’s the hands you want.”
