About: Hello! My name is Avery ..... I have had dogs all throughout my life and plan to keep it that way! As a kid I grew up with with two beagles, a chocolate lab, a pit bull, and most recently a rescue shar pei/ lab mix. I love seeing every animals personality shine through and spoiling them with love and attention. Each one of my dogs has loved the outdoors (almost as much as me) and had lives full of adventure and exercise. I have also lived with cats and love them (through my previous roommate). I love animals of all breeds and sizes and would love the chance to meet yours! I am a current student so my schedule is semi flexible at the moment. Currently unavailable/working Tuesday evenings (although i pick up other shifts when im able). I try my best to keep my calendar updated to reflect my availability, please reach out if you have any questions! I am super active and would love to spend time outside walking with your pet if you' like and the weather allows! If not we can spend time in-doors playing.

“tara is excellent - timely, reliable, and communicative. I had no worries leaving my dog with her for walks, and she's absolutely someone I would rely upon in the future. highly recommend!”


About: I’ve had multiple years of experience with senior dogs, pets needing help with medication, or energetic pets requiring lots of play. I have two cats myself. I’m a musician with a flexible schedule so I can make time whenever they need me. Happy to do over nights or pop in visits. Ive found it best to try to keep animals routines and schedules as regular as possible from what they’re used to to minimize their stress.

About: I've taken care of dogs and cats since I was old enough for my parents and neighbors to trust me! Grew up with multiple of my both in the house and naturally my first job was dog walking and house sitting around the neighborhood. Have experience working with older pets, puppies / kittens, and large breeds. Currently, live in the Corktown neighborhood with my Australian Shepherd Mel. If you see us out on a walk, say hello! I'm currently working part-time, so my schedule is flexible to accommodate your ideal walking and / or care schedule. My Australian Shepard Mel and I walk around Corktown daily and am always up for spending more time outside! For Dog Walking: I follow your lead on your dog's tendencies / preferences. I adhere to your preferred routes and instructions regarding leash etiquette, avoiding off-leash situations unless explicitly discussed and approved. If your dog enjoys canine company, I'm happy to bring my Aussie Mel along, who loves walking with friends! If your dog likes playing ball / frisbee, happy to discuss how we can accommodate that as well. For In-Home Pet Check-ins: I pay close attention to your pet's behavior and appetite, reporting any concerns to you immediately. I ensure fresh water is always available and clean up any messes promptly. I prioritize respecting your space, leaving it just as I found it.

“Jordan was wonderful with our 3 month old puppy! He responded within minutes, was very professional and came to meet our pup the day after we contacted him. Our pup took to him immediately, and Jordan came and walked him several days a week for three weeks. Each time, he was prompt, sent us pictures and a run down of how each walk went. Jordan was also very flexible with a few of our unexpected schedule changes. He is truly an ideal person to trust in caring for your dog, and we will absolutely be requesting his services again!”


About: I treat every pet like they’re my own—with patience, playfulness, and lots of love. What sets me apart is my ability to read animal behavior and adjust care to their unique needs.

Whether your pet is shy, quirky, or full of zoomies, I meet them where they’re at—tail wags guaranteed! Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine—I love being active and spending time with animals, so walks, playtime, and cuddle breaks fit right in. I structure my day around the pets I’m caring for to make sure they get the attention, exercise, and comfort they need. Whether it’s early morning feedings, midday walks, or evening snuggles, I’m flexible and committed to keeping their routine consistent and stress-free In your home, I follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible—meals, walks, playtime, and any meds—so they feel safe and stress-free. I respect your space, keep things tidy, and send regular updates so you always know how your pet is doing. In my home, pets get a cozy, calm environment with plenty of attention, belly rubs, and play. I make sure they have a comfy place to rest, stay on their usual schedule, and get tons of love.

About: I have years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of all sizes and temperaments. I’ve worked as a veterinary assistant and taken courses in behavior and animal welfare, which have given me strong skills in handling, caring for, and understanding pets' needs. As a future veterinarian, I’m dedicated to keeping pets happy, healthy, and safe while giving them all the love and attention they deserve. I have a full-time internship, but I’m still dedicated to giving your pets the best care! I’m available on weekends and some evenings during the week. I always make time for play, walks, and extra snuggles to keep your pets happy, healthy, and loved while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities.

About: My name is Kate and my love for animals is what prompted me to enter the world of pet care. I grew up in a home with dogs and guniea pigs and learned early on how to be responsible in caring for a pet. The Humane Society was close to my childhood home, I would walk there weekly to go in and visit all the different animals and dreamed of owning a bunch one day myself. Later on in my twenties I learned what it was like to have a cat and now am a self proclaimed, obsessed with all the things cat. Currently I have two cats, a spunky Bengal named Benny and a sophisticated tuxedo baby named Olive. My hobbies include weightlifting, walking, yoga, ceramics, listening to podcasts, reading, baking and traveling. I currently work full time Mon-Thurs, 4 days a week which allows me to have, Friday, Saturday and Sunday morning or afternoons available for drop-in visits or walking your pet. I currently am not able to board any other animals in my home as I have two cats that prefer to be the only pets.

About: From a young age I have had a love for animals from rescuing/raising strays to finally working as an assistant in the vet field. I currently have cats of my own and Through this time I have learned animal characteristics and how to bond with them all while tending to their health. With medical skills such as administrating medications and a pure love for animals you can rest assured I will treat your fur baby as my own! I am currently a mom of two youngsters and in school so I am intrested in part time work that gives me more time to make memories with my babies. Although I am unable to care for your pets in my own home, I am more than able and willing to travel to your pets comfort place and utilize any and all tools available to care for your pet the best way possible!

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life from my parents breeding them when I was a kid to saving cats and dogs from the streets and making sure they get spayed/ neutered and given the best forever home. I currently work part time as a personal assistant so I have lots of free time to dedicate to my dogs as well as looking after other peoples babies. My home has a fenced in yard, 3 story home with lots of room for running. I have house sat for family and friends before and always treat your home like I would want someone to treat mine while I’m away.

Avery H.Star Sitter
“Avery has been an incredible pet owner and caretaker since we met in 6th grade. Her dedication and love for animals are unparalleled, making her the perfect person to entrust with your fur babies. Personal experiences have proven her reliability and responsibility. Avery graciously stayed at my house to watch my two cats for over 2 weeks while I was out of the country. She treated them with the same love and care as I do, ensuring they felt comfortable and secure. I knew she had all situations under control which was comforting with me being so far away. Now having her own dog, she loves taking her high energy companion on long walks, visits parks, farmers markets, and arranges puppy playdates, all to enrich Goose's life with joy and social interactions. Avery's hardworking nature and unwavering trustworthiness make her an ideal pet owner. She wholeheartedly cares for animals, and her dedication ensures that your beloved pets will receive the utmost attention, love, and care they deserve. Rest assured, your furry friends will be in excellent hands with Avery, and she will flawlessly fulfill their every need.”

Erik M.Star Sitter
“Erik is a very caring and responsible pet owner who I’ve seen take so much extra care for animals. Whether it be his own pet or one of his friends or even a stranger’s, Erik takes great care to make sure the animals around him are comfortable and taken care of. I’ve seen him researching best tactics for cat caregiving many times as he thoughtfully implements good practices into his routines with his best friend and kitty Bumi. Bumi was a starving street cat when they met and Erik and him slowly courted each other until a trusting bond was made and Bumi moved in. I hear many stories about training and caring for his past animals who he holds dear to his heart.”

Alisha B.
“Alisha has been my go-to pet sitter for years, and she’s always incredible! Moose, my dog, is usually pretty anxious and reactive, especially on walks, but he absolutely adores her. She’s so patient and knows exactly how to handle him—he always comes back from his walks calm and happy. Even P, my cat, who’s usually more reserved, warmed up to her fast. Alisha keeps me updated with pics and messages the whole time, which makes me feel super at ease when I’m away. She really gets them both, and I couldn’t imagine trusting anyone else with Moose and P. Highly recommend her!”
