“Clayton took care of my two dogs and did an amazing job! He sent me daily updates, and everything went smoothly. I would absolutely book him again. My dogs are probably some of the most antisocial out there, but Clayton handled them really well, they did great under his care. I highly recommend him!”


“Larissa was amazing! She took in my dogs last minute for a trip. She provided frequent updates, photos, and videos. She is very kind and knowledgable about dog behavior and correction. The most important part is my dogs were happy and enjoyed their stay. I will be using her services in the future and highly recommend her.”


“Amanda watched my German Shorthair I’m March 3025. She sent me personal messages and my dog seemed to be happy and well cared for. I would recommend Amanda and plan on using her again”


“Chasity was amazing! She was great about responding in a timely manner and sending me updates about how my dogs were doing. I could tell that they were in good hands upon dropping them off and I was able to enjoy my vacation without any worries about my dogs. I plan to re-use Chasity’s dog sitting services in the future!”


“Beth is an excellent sitter. She takes great care of Houdini and Houdini loves her. We are peace-minded when we go out of town as we know our furry member of the family is in good hands.”


“Colt is absolutely amazing! He is very professional and took great care of our pup; Blaze was a very happy pup after spending a long weekend with Colt. And we were able to fully enjoy our vaca because we knew our pup was in great hands. We very highly recommend Colt!!”


“Very friendly and welcoming sitter. Took great care of our two German shepherd puppies. Their dog was very well behaved and helped our puppies with their socialization skills. Recommend.”


“Aanchal took care of our pups. She sent us numerous videos and pictures during the day. They looked happy and content. She took them for a walk, gave them treats and love. I will say that my pups have been watched after before, but the care and love given by Aanchal and her hubby too was without any doubt at another level. She truly cared for them and most definitely will use her again. She was wonderful!”


“I recently had to leave my dog with a sitter for the first time, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. Alycia took such great care of my dog and made her feel completely at home. It was clear that my dog was happy and comfortable, and I felt at ease knowing she was in good hands. Highly recommend!”


“We received 2 updates per day with pictures during our week of vacation. It was so nice to see that Grizz was happy and doing well. He came home tired but happy!! Thanks for watching after our boy!”


“Caitlin was absolutely fantastic with our little Aurora. We have never felt so comfortable leaving our furbaby than we did with Caitlin. She loved on Aurora as if she was her own. I loved all of the updates and pictures ahe sent to us! It's a good sign when our dog wanted to stay with Caitlin rather than go home. I would highly recommend Caitlin! We will certainly be repeat clients!!”


“This lady did a phenomenal job with my dog Little Joe! She was reasonably priced, so I decided to give her a try. My dog has never been in boarding before, but I had no choice due to needing to go out of town for a week. She was accommodating and she is great with pets. My little fella is not used to strangers or being away from me, but she did exceptionally well with him. She was responsive from booking to pick up! She sent photos during the week, and anytime I was wondering about him during the week, she always quickly responded with pictures! I will without a doubt use her again. I can tell that she is serious about pet sitting as she had a room in her home set up as a pet daycare. She’s worth her weight in gold, and I can’t wait to send LJ back anytime I’m in need of a pet sitter. Thank you thank you thank you for taking such amazing care of my boy, and for sending him home with treats. See ya again soon🐾 ❤️❤️❤️❤️”


“Lynn was a great sitter for Beaux Beaux Dawg. He had a great time with her and she keeped up to date with photos and messages. We're planning to have her as our sitter when we're down there. Thanks again Lynn :-)”


About: I’ve helped my baby through a hard battle with an autoimmune disorder. I’m capable of anything at this point. Especially, loving on pups that need their caretaker to go the extra mile. I’m able to drop in around lunch and/or house sit most every evening. I can especially help travelers that want to bring their dog on vacation but don’t want to have to do all the less fun activities for their pets. I’ll do whatever it asked of me while respecting your home, your loved fur baby, your money and your time. I truly do have your back.

About: Dogs, cats, birds, and fish . . . These are some of the best friends I’ve had over the last 45 years. All of my pets have lived long, healthy lives based on excellent feeding, grooming, and regular medical care. I genuinely love animals and have a very watchful eye on their well-being. I am a retired school administrator with a 36-year history of creating productive learning environments and protecting the lives of thousands of school children. Care-taking is my thing. Now, I have a very flexible schedule/calendar, and I am wide open to opportunities to meet and care for animals of all shapes, sizes, and colors. I am available to follow instructions for drop-in or pet/house-sitting in the client’s home—including feeding and letting dogs out for potty breaks, feeding and checking in on cats, and feeding fish or birds.

Sarah S.
“Sarah has kept my dogs and cat for quite a while when she lived nearby. I hate she had to move because my animals always felt safe and cared for when she’d let them out and watch them. If you are looking for the best sitter, Sarah is your gal!!”


James L.

“It was a great visit for Koda. Pamela and James were accommodating hosts - and even brushed out some tangles in our Newfoundlands coat. It was a very nice surprise!”


Susan V.

“Susie and her daughter took great care of our senior dog. She had a great sleep-over and even got to sleep in the bed. I'm sure she was cuddled and spoiled.”


Sandra E.Star Sitter
“I don't think you could find a more loving, caring, dedicated person to watch your animal! She is an awesome person and really loves animals! The safety and health of your pet will be her number one priority. When you talk to her about your pet, it will be obvious to you that leaving the responsibility of the caring for your animal in her hands is one of the very best decisions you could ever make!”
