“Vanessa H. Is such a great responsible petsitter. She came to our house and stayed for six days and nights with our Catahoula dog. She was super and on the ball with everything I asked of her. From feedings to let outs, play time, videos and pics she kept up on all of it. I highly recommend her as my favorite pick., to let her stay with your furbabies.”


“We had a wonderful experience with Madison! Our dog Pascal is very shy and tends to get scared around new people, but she was incredibly patient and gave him the time and space he needed to feel comfortable. Her gentle approach truly made a difference. Throughout the entire time, she was attentive, communicative, and easy to reach. We especially appreciated the regular photo updates, they meant so much to us while we were away and missing our fur baby. We’re so grateful for the care and love she gave to Pascal and wouldn’t hesitate to work with her again!”


About: With years of hands-on experience in animal care, I’ve had the privilege of volunteering at both wildlife sanctuaries and the SPCA, where I worked with a wide variety of animals in need. My background includes caring for pets of all ages—from playful puppies and kittens to senior companions—as well as animals with medical conditions and special needs. I’m deeply committed to providing patient, compassionate, and attentive care, ensuring every pet feels safe, loved, and well looked after, no matter their age or condition. I currently have open availability and am happy to provide pet care whenever you need it. Whether it’s daily visits, overnight stays, or last-minute help, I’m flexible and ready to accommodate your schedule. Your pet’s comfort and well-being are my top priorities, and I’m here to make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for at all times. I provide loving, reliable care for pets in the comfort of their own home or while out on walks. Whether it's feeding, playtime, administering medication, or just keeping them company, I follow your pet’s routine to help them feel safe and stress-free. During walks, I ensure they get the exercise, attention, and care they need, always keeping their safety and happiness as my top priority.

About: I’m an animal lover who enjoys playing and cuddling with fur babies. I’m open to meeting the individual and unique needs of every animal I care for. I enjoy creating my own schedule and prioritize care into my routine to soothe, comfort, entertain and provide basic needs for every animal in my care. I’m available early mornings, evenings and weekends. Routine schedules for feeding, potty and play time are ideal so I and the animals know what’s coming. I try my best to stick to routines already placed and will navigate to create a routine that fits both you as the owner and I as the pet sitter.


“KENDRA IS AMAZING!!! She has great people, pet, and communication skills! Her and her husband are great company- all of us love them! 🦔🐶 10/10 would recommend booking with Kendra!”


“Belle was a fantastic caretaker for our 12-year-old furry baby Scout. He can be a bit of a challenge since he is older and deaf. Belle sent us some pictures of him during our 6-night trip out-of-town. Scout looked happy, bright eyed and alert. Belle left the home neat, tidy and smelling clean and sanitized. I would recommend Belle without any hesitation. She will be first on my list to call when we need her to watch Scout in the future.”


“Sia did an excellent job taking care of Kaylee for a week while on vacation. Was able to get in touch with her as needed. She sent a daily picture of Kaylee and any updates. Would hire her again in future outings.”

“Melanie was an absolute pleasure!! She took care of my Sadie with such patience and kindness (she’s a bit spoiled). She openly communicated and she even stayed a little after the scheduled time to accommodate my travel arrangements. I hope that she becomes Sadie’s full time sitter!!”



“When Luciano first came in our house - immediately - his focus and interest was on our pups. He sat down and played with them right off the bat, and they were in love. We could almost see the bonding happening in that moment, and we knew our pups would be in good hands with Luciano. He's kind, and polite, and clearly loves caring for and interacting with dogs. On a 5 star rating, he's a 6. Absolutely the best. We are so lucky to have found him.”

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.”
