About: I’ve taken care of all types of animals big and small furry or reptilian! I’m comfortable with different energy levels and sizes and willing to put in the work to get to know your pet and make sure they are comfortable! I work from home with very flexible hours so I can accommodate many different schedules during business hours and throughout the rest of the day I live in an apartment so will not be caring for pets in my home, but I am very careful and thorough with all pet care instructions.
About: I’ve taken care of pets for my co-workers and friends for the past several years while they traveled out of town for an extended amount of time. I make sure to check-in every day, feed them, and make sure they get enough attention. I am raising money for marathons I have signed up for over the next year. I’m preparing to run the Marine Corps Marathon and aim to run the Boston Marathon. I usually work evenings from 3-11pm Wednesdays through Sundays and I will have time to take care of your pet in the mornings before I get ready for work. When I am in charge of your pet, I make sure sure they have the food the need to remain healthy, give them a walk when they need it, and provide them with enough attention.
“Matt did a great job with my dogs! He took good care of the house as well. He was also very flexible as I originally booked him for July but then had a change of plans and luckily he was available in August! Would definitely recommend him!”

Brittany A.
“Brittany did an absolutely wonderful job taking care of our dog, Halee. From the moment we met her, we knew Halee would be in gentle and capable hands. Brittany followed Halee’s routine down to a T—from feeding and walks to playtimes in the yard—which made Halee feel safe, happy, and right at home. Every day, Brittany sent us thoughtful updates with photos and little anecdotes that truly captured Halee’s personality. That made all the difference while we were away—we could relax and enjoy our time knowing Halee was content and well cared for. Brittany’s calm confidence and loving attitude put both us—and Halee—at ease. When we returned, the house was tidy, and Halee was so relaxed she didn’t even notice we were gone. It’s clear that Brittany not only provided excellent care but also genuinely bonded with her. We can’t recommend Brittany enough—she’s professional, trustworthy, and clearly loves what she does. We’d hire her again in a heartbeat!”
Triba M.Star Sitter
“Recommend Triba to watch your pets. She made sure my dog was well cared after and taken on a walk. No issues at all. Will use her again”
Steffen B.
“Steffen is one of the kindest most compassionate people I know. He is truly one of the good people in this world and I trust him like family. I know he will take great care of your family member because he has a great work ethic and just genuinely cares which is honestly so rare. I’m lucky to have him as a friend and any pet he cares for will feel the same!”
