About: I’ve cared for various pets in my hometown of St. Louis, Missouri, and I’m excited to meet friends in the Pacific Northwest! Past clients include German Shepard puppies and 12 year old terriers! I’ve been training my dog to perform as a service dog for six months. I work full-time but work remotely Thursday and Friday and have weekends off. I take my dog on a walk twice a day, three times during remote work. I also enjoy taking her to dog parks and hiking on the weekends. I have a very calm working dog who has both the energy play with your pup and help role model good behavior. As a resident of Witham Hill Oaks, I have access to great, dog-friendly walkable neighborhood and to a nearby dog park.

About: I grew up in a dog-loving family, however, I love all animals! I have had dogs in the house since I was born, I've been taking care of them all my life. Since 2016 I've been pet-sitting and house-sitting for both cats and dogs of all kinds for family members and friends. My love for cats grew and I adopted my own cat in 2021! I understand and value the love and effort it takes to care for an animal, as I would want the same for my pet. Making sure your pet is healthy, happy, and safe while you're away is my top priority, while understanding each pet has a unique personality and needs. I currently have flexible hours for pet care needs to be flexible and reliable. Based on my availability for a variety of devices I offer, I can be available for longer hours or multiple services at your request. I make sure every basis is covered (food and water supplied in clean containers, litter box cleaned, picking up after dog walks, etc). Beyond basic needs I provide a friendly face for any additional requirements your pet may need while you’re away (cuddles/pets, getting exercise, avoiding boredom with toys, etc).

About: Hello! My name is Dani, and I’ve had a deep love and compassion for animals for as long as I can remember. I grew up on a farm where I helped care for dogs, cats, horses, sheep, and more—experiences that gave me a strong sense of responsibility and a genuine heart for animals. For a long time, I even thought I’d become a veterinarian because of how naturally I connected with animals and how much I enjoyed caring for them. I’ve raised two Labrador puppies on my own, so I’m very familiar with the patience, structure, and energy it takes to raise and train young dogs. I also regularly help care for my sister’s kittens and feel confident working with pets of all ages and personalities. Whether your pet needs lots of playtime or a calm, comforting presence, I provide loving, reliable care tailored to their individual needs. I treat every animal as if they were my own and always strive to create a safe, happy experience for both pets and their people. Right now, I’m taking online summer classes, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time at home. I’ve been feeling a bit lonely lately, and spending time with animals would not only bring me joy and companionship but also give me a great reason to get out for more walks. I’d love to include pet care in my daily routine—not just as something I can do, but something that genuinely adds purpose, energy, and happiness to my day. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, my priority is always to create a calm, safe, and loving environment. I pay close attention to each pet’s personality and needs—whether that means giving them space to warm up at their own pace or providing extra playtime and affection. In a client’s home, I stick closely to their routines to help pets feel comfortable and secure. I make sure to follow all instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, litter box care, and any special needs or quirks. In my own home, I maintain a clean, quiet space with lots of cozy spots and room to play, making sure pets have a stress-free experience while they’re with me. I treat every pet as if they were my own—with patience, respect, and lots of love.

“David is consistently ready to walk my pup with short notice. He’s friendly and kind and great with Milo. I’m thankful to say “long time no see” and trust that Milo is going to have a really fun hour out.”


About: As a dog walker and sitter with a variety of experience, including caring for puppies, I offer trusted and loving care. I genuinely miss my own dogs while in college, making me committed to providing a home-like environment. Additionally, as a seasoned cat mom for 5 years, I bring a unique understanding and care for feline friends. I am always willing to learn more about others pets and how I can provide the best care! Currently, since I am in college and holding up another job I have less time during the day. I almost always have weekends off and will always be honest about what I can handle when it comes to your pets care. We can make arrangements to accommodate either before or after my work hours. I am dedicated to ensuring your pet's well-being by incorporating daily feeding, exercise, playtime, and attention into my routine. With my availability and commitment to excellent pet care, I can meet your furry friend's needs effectively. When caring for pets in client homes, I prioritize safety, trust, and comfort. I provide reliable care, follow routines, ensure security, maintain communication, and respect privacy.

About: I’ve had pets all my life and have been caring for dogs and cats for 20+ years—both my own and others’. I have dog/cat and house sat for neighbors, friends and family for years. I’m a dependable, loving sitter who treats every animal like family. Whether your pet needs play, snuggles, or calm companionship, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I have experience caring for anxious and high energy dogs. You can count on me to care for them as if they were my own! I offer house sitting, drop-in visits, and dog walking, and I’m happy to tailor care to your pet’s needs and routine. As an online student, I have a very flexible schedule and can usually accommodate daytime, evening, and weekend visits. I care for my own family's dog daily and have helped care for her in her senior health struggles. I have become accustomed to administering medications, additional support with diet and feeding time, and monitoring her health through physical and behavioral changes. I'm not currently able to currently able to dog sit at my own home due to my elderly nonsocial dog. You can count on me to be communicative, respectful of your home, and most importantly, to care for your pets as if they were my own! I'm currently working as a student to earn an online certification. My schedule is flexible, and I can accommodate my schedule to meet your pets needs. I'm very trustworthy, reliable, and respectful. I will take care of your pets as if they are my own. I will also respect and care for your home, knowing It is your safe, private space.

About: I’ve had at least one dog in my life since the day I was born. I’m familiar with dogs that need medication or special care and can take care of more than one dog at once. At most, I have taken care of my three dogs at home (Texas) and five dogs while house sitting. I’m good with dogs that are hard to walk, high energy and need lots of play, and even ‘needy’ dogs that want a hand on them at all times. In my opinion, no dog is too big or too small! I work full-time locally (8-4ish plus commute). If your dog is used to a working schedule, I would still love to sit them! Since I do Rover for fun and to meet new friends (your pets), my job does come first when it comes to scheduling. Additionally, it is worth noting that, unfortunately, my job is just slightly too far from most residential places in my service area to be able to drop-in for a bit on lunch breaks. Even though I do work, I still have plenty of time to give your pet(s) love! I will still maintain their daily routines, feeding schedules, and regular exercise regimens as closely as possible. Safety and comfort is my number one concern. When you're away and someone new is not only caring for your pet but also staying in/entering your home, you always want peace of mind. I guarantee doors are secure when leaving any home and that no pet is trying to poke their nose for a possible escape out when entering. On any walk, dogs will be leashed (and harnessed, if applicable) and there will always be a high level of awareness and caution (intersections, reactivity, leash fit/length, etc). I always leave the used/approved spaces reset to normal and clean with no laundry, dishes, or trash left behind. Time and owner permitting, I'm always willing to wash sheets and towels to make sure returning home is as easy as possible!

About: I have grown up with animals in my home since I was a baby. Pets hold a special place in my heart and their love is unmatched. I love going for walks any chance I get and enjoying nature. I also get so much joy playing with pets and teaching them new tricks. I have a pretty big yard and plenty of room to run around and play with them inside as well as some toys and treats.

“Thank you Kate! It’s comforting to know you take great care of our pups. We love reading your report cards. It’s fun to have a little insight to their day while we are gone.”

About: I’ve lived with puppies and dogs all of my life, we currently have 4, both large and small, one even with special needs. They are part of my family and are treated as so. I’ve watched many dogs over my lifetime for friends and family. I am a substitute teacher’s aide and have summers off, I am energetic and love to take walks. I have a very flexible schedule and am an early riser. I treat pets as though they are my own, always ensuring and checking that dogs are safe and happy with water and food as necessary.

About: I have had a cat for over 15 years and a dog for the last 5 years. I am sensitive and caring towards animals and would like to help you out by looking after your fur babies to give you piece of mind. I have experience giving medicine to both dogs and cats. My previous cat required a pill daily. Additionally, I give my current cat an oral gel twice a week. I have also given medications to the dogs and cats I have watched per the owners' instructions. I work part-time from home right now, so I have plenty of time available for pet care including dog walking and checking on pets. I walk my own dog every day. I am very detail oriented and will follow any and all instructions you have for caring for your pet. I know how stressful it can be to be away from pets and want to make it easy for others.

Marissa S.
“Marissa provided absolutely wonderful care for my dachshund, Chance, and I couldn't be happier with the experience. Chance can be quite high-maintenance and particular about his routine, but Marissa handled everything with such patience and genuine care. What impressed me most was how nurturing and attentive she was with him. You can tell she truly loves dogs—it's not just a job for her. Chance immediately warmed up to her, which is saying something since he's usually cautious with new people. By the time I picked him up, it was clear he absolutely adored her! Marissa was communicative throughout, sending updates that gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. She followed his routine perfectly and treated him like he was her own. It's rare to find someone who combines such genuine affection for animals with reliable, professional service. I would recommend Marissa without hesitation to anyone looking for exceptional dog care. Chance and I both hope to have her watch him again soon!”


Ashley S.

“Ashley took care of my kittens when I was gone for a weekend with my fiancé! Whiskey (my kitten) had just been spayed and definitely needed some extra attention; she was loopy and hungry and cranky during this time so I felt a little bad leaving. Ashley sent me the cutest pictures of Whiskey sleeping every day, made sure that her stitches looked good and cleaned them when needed. She is definitely a great pet sitter/animal care giver. She is super sweet and easy to work with, and she made it so much less stressful for me to be gone for a couple day’s! Would recommend Ashley’s service to anyone. She will love and take care of your animals, just like you would. :)”


Chloe S.
“Chloe is such a loving and caring pet sitter. My dogs just love her and I never have to worry when I go out of town and she pet sits for me. I highly recommend her!”


Kate D.Star Sitter
“Thank you Kate! It’s comforting to know you take great care of our pups. We love reading your report cards. It’s fun to have a little insight to their day while we are gone.”


Erika S.
“I can’t recommend Erika enough as a pet sitter! She has a natural gift with animals-especially dogs- and they absolutely adore her. Whether it’s going for long walks, playing fetch or giving belly rubs and cuddles, she goes above and beyond to make sure every pup feels safe, happy, and loved. She has cared for dogs of all sizes and temperaments, and she’s incredibly responsible, communicative, and attentive to each animal’s unique needs. If you are looking for someone trustworthy and kind with years of experience, look no further. Your furry friend will be in excellent hands!”


Alexandra B.
“I've known Alexandra for 10 years now. She is dedicated, hard working, and kind. She has had animals for as long as I've known her and has always given them the best care. Her dog Olivia is just about the most spoiled creature around, and that's exactly how a puppy should be treated.”
