About: Woof! Meow? Hello? Oh hi, now that I’ve got your attention! My name is Mae. I’ve taken care of animals when I was younger and in college. I stopped due to working a lot. However I have more time for your best friend(s)! I most cater to cats. However that doesn’t mean I haven’t taken care of dogs and one random fish. I know, why pick me? I love animals with everything and treat every animal as if they were my own. Cats care: I will/can spend a lotted amount of time. I will stay at the house for up to 1-2 hours depending on how many visits you want. Am and/or PM. They will get plenty of play time, or alone time depending on preference. Cat litter will be scooped 1-2 times a day (depending on you, amount of cats or if needs) Dogs care: Same as above minus the litter. However they will get the lotted amount of walks depending on again you and puppers needs! They will get plenty of playtime as well. Can do some basic training if requested. Rodents: I have basic knowledge of some rodent care as I have had 2 hamster in the past. Will brush up if rodent care is needed and will follow any care instructions by you! Boarding! I apologize in advance but I only board cats. I do have cats of my own but your cat(s) will have their own room and will not have contact with mine. I have a morning to afternoon job. I can visit pet in the morning if needed. Will be able to spend much more time after work. I promise that in the morning they will be well cared for and get the proper care regardless! There will just be extra, extra loving in the afternoon. I have 4 cats at home. 2 are mine and 2 are foster. They get free roam of the house. Access to food at all times and all the attention (or little) they need. This does however mean that no other pets will be at my home unless due to unexpected emergency (natural). If unforeseen emergency does they will be at my home until you’re return home. Your pets safety will be my top concern.
“It was my first time using a dog walking service. Rover was seamless and Tanya was awesome. She was punctual and followed my instructions without a hitch. She kept me updated and sent cute pics which I really appreciated. I would use Rover and Tanya again without hesitation!”
About: I've had and taken care of both my own and friends dogs since I was 10 years old. I enjoy playing and snuggling with them especially in their older years. A time to be more patient and loving! I currently work full time during the day, but I'd rather spend some time with animals vs. door-dashing as a part time job. I can drop in or provide walks after 4:30p, or anytime on my days off. I am happy to sit with your pet in your home for a few hours or even overnight if needed. I believe our pets feel most secure in their own environment.
“Lauren has walked my Layla a few times and has been great! I’m relieved when I see she is there on time and excited to see the post walk photos. Thanks!”

I am available for walks or to stop by your home on weekends at any time and on weekday evenings after 5pm. The safety of your pet is my #1 priority while also making sure your pet enjoys our walk.

“If you want a great person that understands your pet, Karrie is your person. Karrie takes the time to learn about your pet and keeps you well updated with how everything went each time she spends time with them. Our pup Finley loves her walks with Karrie and is a much happier and calmer pup when we come home on the days she is with her. I personally would highly recommend Karrie for any of your pets needs.”
About: I've had dogs since I've been a little girl. A natural born animal lover who cares about animals needs and their care. I took my dogs to obedience training so I have some background with that as well. I'm currently off for the summer as I am a teacher who will be back in school in September. Then I will be available after 4 weekdays and available all hours on weekends. I have a new puppy who has a crate for when I need to go out. I also have a fenced in backyard. However I still take him on multiple walks every day.
About: My dog Hunter is special needs and the light of my life. He has a chronic illness, and over the years I’ve dedicated myself to making sure he’s mentally and physically well every single day. That care and attention naturally extends to every dog that stays with me. When your dog stays with me, they’ll be treated like family. I’m home full-time and your pup will have a personal companion with them day and night — they won’t be left alone for more than an hour at a time. I take dogs out every couple of hours for walks, beach trips, or quiet time in the park depending on their energy level and needs. Your dog will have access to my entire home and I make sure every pup feels safe and settled before anything else. I take things slow, give them space to adjust, and stay close while they find their comfort. I’ve found this makes a big difference, especially for dogs who are nervous or not used to being away from home. This is not a pet hotel or drop-in situation — it’s a full-time, one-on-one experience. Your dog will never be one of many, and they’ll never be left in a crate or separate room to “adjust” on their own. If you’re looking for a calmer, more personalized stay where your dog feels supported every step of the way, I’d love to meet you both. I cook fresh healthy food topper for my dog, walk him 1-2 times a day for 20 min, massage his back, and I make sure he has plenty of toys and mental stimulation. I conduct training exercises and ensure my dog is appropriately socialized. My yard is secure and my home is free from any potential pet hazards. I am well versed in dog training techniques. I understand how to manage excited dogs and I know how to approach shy ones.

Mae S.Star Sitter
“If you want an amazing and fun pet sitter pick Mae! Mae is fantastic! She has always been my go to choice for my dog Reo before Leo moved out to the west coast to live with my extended family. Mae has been watching my pets for years and she is a hard one to replace. Her absolute love for your animals is unmatched! She is always willing to take dogs on an adventure or chill at home with the cats. She always sends the cutest and funniest pictures and videos of your fur children. Even though my dog is now on the west coast, Mae is one of the few people that I trust with my cats. My cats absolutely love her and it helps that she has a very good understanding of some of the different anxieties my cats have with new people. I have one cat with bad separation anxiety when I am out of town and my other cat is an under-socialized cat who is on medication for sever anxiety and stress. Mae is great at making them feel comfortable when I'm not home and making sure they get the attention they need.”

“I can’t recommend Maydalis enough! She cared for my two dogs like they were her own, and it was such a relief knowing they were in such loving and capable hands. From daily updates to sweet photos, she kept me in the loop and gave me complete peace of mind. My pups absolutely adored her — tails wagging non-stop whenever she was around! Maydalis is kind, trustworthy, and clearly has a natural connection with animals. Anyone would be lucky to have her as their pet sitterO”

Kellie I.
“Kellie is great with both dogs and cats. I have 3 dogs (2 small one large) and two cats and I definitely would hire her again to watch/walk them). She was great with the dogs and they are not always the quickest to warm up to strangers. They look forward to her coming as they know that means walk/play time. I highly recommend Kellie and plan on using her again.”
Scott T.
“I am writing to highly recommend Scott Tomlinson for anyone seeking a trustworthy and caring dog watcher. I recently had entrusted my dog, Remy, to Scott for a week-long stay, and I couldn't be more pleased with the experience. First and foremost, Scott has an exceptional bond with his own dog, Hunter. It is clear that Hunter is not just a pet to him but a true companion. The love, care, and attention he gives Hunter is extraordinary, and it speaks volumes about his dedication and understanding of dogs' needs. Watching them together, you can see how well-trained, happy, and content Hunter is, which is a testament to Scott’s skills as a dog owner. During my dog's stay, Scott ] went above and beyond to ensure that Remy felt at home and comfortable. My dog, who can oftentimes be shy and anxious in new environments, and especially around new people, quickly warmed up to him. Scott’s calm, patient demeanor and genuine love for animals made a world of difference. Remy remained relaxed and happy, and had clearly enjoyed the time spent. I would not hesitate to recommend Scott to anyone looking for someone they can trust to take care of their furry family members. His kindness, reliability, and passion for dogs make him an outstanding candidate for anyone seeking an animal caretaker. I know that any pet in his care will be well looked after, loved, and treated with the same respect and care as Hunter.”
