“Ashley has been so great with Beau! It’s not always easy to find someone you can trust to take care of your fur baby when you’re not around (especially without a personal reference), but Ashley has treated mine like her own. She is flexible with her schedule and she is always very communicative and quickly responsive. She goes above to give Beau the best care and he is always happy to see her.”



“Ruth was an amazing dog walker! She went above and beyond to walk our pup. She provided updates, sent pictures and made us feel at ease while we were away. She's now our preferred dog walker :)”


About: I’ve had dogs and cats all of my life. I have always been the go to sitter for friends and family. I am especially experienced with senior dogs and understand the patience, gentleness and extra care they need. I’ve also trained my own pets from a young age, so I’m comfortable working with both older and energetic puppies. Above all, my husband and I treat every pet like family. I work full-time, and my husband is an independent worker with a flexible schedule, so we tag team pet care throughout the day. Our routine allows us to provide check ins and potty breaks approximately every 2-4 hours. We make sure pets are never left alone for too long and always have the attention they need. We’re also available on weekends and happy to accommodate your pets usual routine as closely as possible. Safety and trust are my top priorities. While I have an unfenced yard, I always use leash and supervise pets closely during outdoor time. I have a calm home environment with open space for pets to walk, play and relax. My senior chihuahua has their own separate room, which helps maintain a peaceful setting and allows me to keep visiting pets comfortable and safe.

“April is wonderful! All three of my fur babies took an immediate liking to her. My pup is a bit shy, but by day 2 was offering up her belly for rubs! She is our go to from here on out.”


“Briana is very responsible and accommodating. She responded quickly and was willing to work with me and my dogs. One of my dogs is very nervous around strangers but she’s been super patient with him and I could tell he’s warming up to her. I would definitely recommend Briana.”

I have a fully fenced in yard with a dog pool and what feels like a million toys! I have had dogs and cats my whole life and really enjoy taking care of them. I will keep in contact with daily pictures and good communication. I am on a set schedule for work but also work 10 minutes from home and can go home if needed.

“Rachelle was so responsive and made me feel so comfortable! It is my first time ever using Rover & I’m glad that she was available. Definitely will be using her services again! Highly recommend!”


About: I’ve cared for animals since I was 11—everything from cats and dogs to hermit crabs and turtles. I specialize in gentle handling, senior care, and puppy patience. Animals feel safe with me. I’m currently in school part-time for wildlife ecology, so animals are a big part of my life and schedule. Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine. I live on a quiet, abandoned golf course with two dog parks nearby—plenty of safe, open space for pets to play, explore, and feel at home.

About: I’m patient and attentive when it comes to animals and their individual needs. I’m physically capable of engaging in any animal-related activities, and I stay observant to make sure they’re comfortable, happy, and well cared for. I also adapt easily to each animal’s personality and preferences. As a college student without a current job, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate time throughout the day and week to care for pets. This fits well into my routine and gives me the opportunity to focus fully on their needs. I provide a safe, loving environment, follow routines closely, offer regular potty breaks, playtime, and ensure pets feel comfortable, secure, and well cared for at all times.

“Cassidy was very accommodating, flexible and kind with my fur babies. It was their first time left alone all day in a very long time and my first time using the app and Cassidy was patient with my new navigation of this process and tender hearted to my lonely doggie. Warmed my heart that she sat with my girl and encouraged her to eat her meal even though she was missing her momma. I even needed to add an extra walk when my day went unexpectedly late, and this was no issue.”


About: I completed a four year veterinary program in high school on top of being a lifetime animal lover who tries to gain as much general animal information as possible. With this I have basic skills and knowledge on how to handle dogs professionally. At college, I am my dog’s full time caretaker as well as taking care of three dogs total at home. I love dogs of all sizes and ages! I plan on working part time for the summer, but whenever I am not working I am available! My weekly schedule cannot be known until my job posts when I work but I will be able to communicate specifics. I will comply to and rules and regulations that the owners put in place for their animals. I cannot work out of my own home but am more than willing to pet sit or do drop in at the owners home, where their dog will more likely be at home.

“Cameron was such a great choice for our fur baby. She was very communicative and always kept in touch and sent photos. she helped so much and was very sweet and our baby. We loved her would definitely recommend her and will definitely reach out again in the future. :)”


About: I have had at least one dog my entire life, so over 20 years. I have experience with puppies who were just born, all the way to a pup who is 17 years old - almost as old as me! I have owned multiple dogs at a time, trained my own puppies, and have even had farm animals (cows, pigs, goats, chickens, you name it!) My family and friends have relied on me to care for their pups for years, and I have experience with over 20 breeds including (Shih Tzus, Yorkshire Terriers, Chihuahuas, English Bulldogs, Great Pyrenees, German Shepherds, Mountain Curs, Golden Doodles, Golden Retrievers, Doberman Pinchers, and many more!) I am a 23 year old newly married, dog loving girl! I have a 5 year old English bulldog of my own and her and I are the best buddies! I can assure you, your pup will be just as loved as if it was my own. I absolutely love walking dogs and taking them to the dog park (two of my faves) or simply just playing in the yard. Prior to taking care of your pup, I love for them to get familiar with me, so I will take the on a walk or play with them first. I do not offer overnight services in my personal home, but will visit your home so that your sweet pup (or cat!) feels safe and very familiar with its surroundings. I have found that relocating your pup to a place they have never been can make them very nervous, therefore I simply visit your home where your pup is at the times that you typically feed/water, and take out your pup on a normal basis!

About: Growing up we always had pets and learned how to take care of them. Over the years I have had two ferrets and two large dogs (not at the same time!) Recently I have been doing more pet and house sitting and volunteering for the SPCA. For the SPCA I have walked dogs of all breeds and sizes and helped with adoption and fundraising events. My schedule is very flexible right now. I am talking online classes and can adjust my schedule as needed. That frees me up for walking, drop in visits or sitting. When house sitting, I respect your home and your wishes as a guest. Share with me all the details about how to best care for your furry family members so that I can make the time you are away the most comfortable for them. Currently I am not available for day care or boarding.

About: I have taken care of pets since I was young, as well as growing up with my own bunch. I frequently take care of dogs when needed! I am able to stay overnight and take care of pets as well as frequently stopping in throughout my day to day and checking in on them! I make sure to keep track of the pets and make them feel as comfortable as possible while missing their owners! I make sure to play and cuddle as much as I can.

About: *IMPORTANT* I do not currently pet sit in MY home, I will in YOUR home. I will offer sitting in my home soon! I started caring for animals since I was about 13 years old! My mother has been a dog groomer most of my life I have been around an animal environment for as long as I can remember! I have been a Kennel Tech for the past 3 years, as well as working reception at a Dog Grooming Shop, I am mainly around cats and dogs daily! I have always been passionate about animals as I do have some of my own! I have 1 German Shorthair Pointer and 1 Standard Poodle! I can also offer some training services, I have privately worked with a professional trainer to obtain knowledge on all of it as well as i have personally trained all of my pets! I am currently a stay at home mom, so I have open availability Monday-Sunday at any time of the day! I do need enough notice to make sure I have a sitter for my little one! Any specific schedule that your furbaby needs I will be more than happy to accommodate it! Your pets needs are what is and will always be the most important! I also would like to add that I do have my Cat and Dog CPR certification!

Shelisha F.Star Sitter
“Shelisha is a caring and compassionate person towards people and pets. She has this ability to connect with animals that is truly amazing and endearing. They seem to establish a connection with her almost instantly. I think it has to do with how sensitive towards her and the animal's emotions she is and animals are able to pick up on that. Shelisha has been a great care giver to many pets in the past and will continue to deliver this with a positive frame of mind.”

Mickey M.

“Mickey clearly loves animals and Blinx quickly became her lap cat. When I left he was not eating normally and Mickey noticed that his face was swollen. She took him to the vet for me as I was out of the country. She administered his medication and followed his feeding schedule. I can't imagine how bad his infection would have got if she had not been so attentive. She even emptied and washed his litter box. Next time I need a pet sitter Mickey will be the first person I call.”
