“If you’re looking for a compassionate, experienced, and reliable dog sitter, Tanya is the one to call! We have four energetic dogs ranging from 100 pounds to just 25 pounds, and she handles them all with ease. Whether it’s playtime, cuddles, or keeping them on their best behavior, Tanya goes above and beyond. Having her care for our pups gives us true peace of mind when we travel, knowing they’re in the best hands. We can’t recommend her enough!”


About: Graduated with a degree in Veterinary Technology in 2016, worked in clinic for 5 years until I became a stay at home mom. I am trained to administer medications of any kind for cats and dogs if needed as well as standard pet care. Additionally, I have been trained fear-free techniques to make any experience with your pets as nurturing and comfortable as possible while you're away. At this time, my schedule is open and flexible, and I have all the time needed to help care for your furry loved ones while you’re away 😊 While caring for your pets, I am happy to walk or monitor outside playtime, if yard is securely fenced. Feeding and watering, with ability to adapt to any special needs your pets may have. I can provide medications as needed. I will, of course, clean up any potential messes made, to the best of my ability, while you're away including scooping litterboxes and disposing of feces.

About: I’ve had all kinds of animals since I was little and I wouldn’t have it any other way. They’re so loving and so deserving of love. I’m off from school for the summer. So my days and empty and free, waiting for a fur baby to fill in the blanks! I can’t think of a better way to spend my summer. I am I huge animal lover with an extra soft spot for cats. I love playing fetch with dogs or cuddling on the couch and giving some good pets.

About: I am starting a new chapter in life and now choosing to care for and love on your pets in your home! They have the truest hearts! At the present I am completely open regarding my schedule while I start a new chapter in life. I’m currently striving to start my own business and create my own schedule. I am available for pet sitting in your home as well as potty breaks, playtime, and walks. I am very detail oriented so please know your pets will be cared for in the exact manner in which you wish! Your animals will be loved and cared for just as you would.

About: I’ve been taking care of pets since I was a kid, I also have experience as a kennel tech for over a year of helping with surgeries, recover, medication, anything under the sun I am comfortable doing it for your kiddo. I am comfortable with any dog or cat you throw at me, and of course make sure they feel loved and cared for. I work from home as a content creator or my whole day is pet care. The second I wake up I take my German shepherd for a walk before I even have my coffee in the morning, I include basic training alongside the walk as well. I get back from the walk and of course make sure my 3 cats are fed with all different dietary needs as my male cat has feline herpes so needs special treatment. I get ready for work but before I do I’ll take my dog out again, work, and basically is repeated from the morning. My main phrase I say is either what’s in your mouth or where’s your ball, even during work I will be throwing the ball for my dog, doing training on stream, or even telling my stream to pause as my dog needs attention. I devote every waking moment to my kids. Of course before I accept any job I would come and meet and your kids beforehand to make sure it is something I can handle and to get an idea how eat pet behaves.

“She treats Zeus great. He does extremely well with her.”



“We starting using Lori about two weeks ago and she has been great. Chelsea, our dog, loves her. The weather had been rainy windy and cold lately but she is still taking great care of her and it truly puts my mind at ease while working knowing Chelsea is in good reliable hands. ”


About: I've grown up around animals of all kinds and have also provided care for many of them along the way. I take pride in ensuring any animal in my care is safe, happy and healthy from the day they arrive to the day they leave! (We have a female dog who we'd love to let meet more friends, if possible!) I am currently working a "choose your own shift" schedule, so I can dedicate as little or as much time as possible, to your beloved animal(s)! Schedule open to discussion, dependent on the individuals wants and needs. I have a fenced in dog park and a few walking trails where I reside. I am happy to provide walks and playtime to those in my care!

About: I am primarily focused on getting more dog handling experience. I have volunteered at a shelter for 4 years and I have dog training experience as well. I eventually would like to train dogs as a career. I have an empty home with lots of love to give! Happy pets=peace of mind I typically work 4 days out of the week which means I have at least three days available to spend with your furry friends! I typically don’t have anything to do on my off days and I’d love to dedicate my time to your furry companion so they’re never short of love because love is what they deserve!! I currently live in a first floor apartment in the middle of the woods with scenic trails. Which means plenty of sniffs for your furry friends! I am very accommodating to your dogs needs whether that be administering medication, a soothing bath (free of charge), or sleeping with a certain toy/blanket.

About: Ive taken care of dogs since I was 17. I’ve owned 4 dogs at one point. I have raised two litters of cats. I currently have one dog and one cat! I love animals and would love to help you give love to yours! Rover is my full time job so I am available! I will give your loved ones undivided attention! I will follow directions and make sure I give them lots of love and attention. I do not work currently. I only have to be at home at 2 to pick up my daughter from school. But I have a pretty open schedule. I walk my dog three times a day to ensure there aren’t any accidents at home. I have a gate in case i have to separate pets.

About: I have had dogs since I was 10 , and I've always had a passion for them. When I was younger, I would read books about every type of dog I could get my hands on. I'll be good for your pets because I'm able to adjust to every individual need for your animals. I've watched dogs for friends and family for many years while they were on vacation. I have spent the last few years working in commercial pet care at various daycare and boarding facilities. This includes dogs, cats, birds and various small rodents. I'm willing to do whatever it takes to make your dogs, and yourself as comfortable as possible. I'm happy to go on frequent walks of any duration or difficulty. I used to take one of my own dogs hiking so I'm willing and able to do whatever they are used to. I'm also happy to be at your home as frequently as you'd prefer, and I'd love to maintain open communication with you while you are away. I have also recently acquired a PACCC certification. I’m freelancing at the moment so I have an open schedule at the moment. I am available Mondays, and Wednesday - Saturday. Sundays are also available upon request. I always prefer to meet with pet parents so I can be aware of any potential safety problems in the home and when walking dogs I like to bring a secondary slip leash to use so that in case anything happens to the first leash/collar, your pet is unable to slip away from me.

About: I have had two Great Danes, an Anatolian Shepard mix, a great Pyrenees mix, and I currently own a pit bull. So truly no dog is too big or too small. Our furry friends are like our family and I would like to treat your like my own while you are away. I work from home so I am very flexible with my work schedule. I will work with you to make sure that your pet is getting the care they need throughout the day. I do have a fenced in yard but due to the breed of dog I personally own in home care in my own home will not be available. I am more than willing to travel to you and take care of your pets in your own home.

About: I put 30+ years of pet care experience on here but it’s really more like 45. I’ve been taking care of our family pets since I was 8 years old. I always took care of family and friend’s pets, stayed at their homes when they needed me to watch them or just played with their fur babies so they wouldn’t be alone during the day. I feel a very kindred connection towards dogs and cats (& other animals) and give them as much love and happiness as I can. I’m currently working part-time as a substitute teacher, so I have a lot of availability on the weekends and during the day, especially during the summer and spring break. Additionally, I create a schedule so I can work around yours and mine. I have a fenced in yard, but walk my dog daily on a leash when I take him out. He is showered in love and is very well behaved.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is I have 6 of my own dogs and I love taking care of all of them ! I take care of pets all day long on an off and I have 6 of my own dogs to take care of myself on a daily basis I feed my dogs all day on an off , I take them outside , clean up their poop , clean up their cat boxes

About: Hi I'm Karah and I am 24 years old. I am a certified Animal Care Professional (CPACP). I have 6 years of professional animal care experience & I currently work at a dog training facility! I've had animals my entire life including cats, dogs, hamsters, rats, rabbits, & fish! I love caring for animals, it's my passion, and I'm also great at it. I really hope you give me the honor of taking great care of your animals too! I will give your animals all the attention and care they need. I am always on time and very reliable. I can always do last minute drop-ins or walks. I am very cautious and observant of animal behavior and always keeping an eye on them. I will make sure your pets are always taken care of and comfortable!

“Haley was fantastic!! She is so sweet and helpful and my dogs love her!!”


About: I am a trainer through and through, my mom can tell you how difficult it was to train my chihuahua. But we’re working on it and she’s doing great! I make sure my dog is taken out every morning before I head to school. Ensure that kitty is fed and especially my fish, can’t forget about him! My kitty is very independent, but Bella loves to cuddle. I make sure that I spend a couple minutes with her at least every hour!

Jennifer F.Star Sitter
“Jen is a very caring and compassionate person to animals and people alike. She has a great love for animals and nature and is creative and easy going. A great listener and person to have in your corner when in need. She tends to gravitate towards an animal when she is around them and is naturally in tune to their emotional and physical needs. She is my go to person if we are out of town and need care for our cats.”


Cailee H.
“If you’re looking for someone amazing with animals, look no further than Caliee. I can’t say enough great things about her—she’s just phenomenal. From the moment she started helping care for my dog and cats, I saw how naturally she connects with animals. She’s caring, intuitive, and genuinely kind, with a heart of gold. What sets her apart is how animals respond to her—it’s like they just get her. She guides and coaches them with ease, never harsh, but always in control. Honestly, I think my dog and cats might love her even more than they love me (and that’s saying something!). As someone who’s very protective of who spends time with my pets, I can say without hesitation: any animal in Caliee’s care is in the best hands possible. - Kari R.”

They are flexible and patient and my pets are always super excited to see them each and every time I require their services. They never disappoint. They will always be my go-to caregivers because I know that I can rely on them to provide the love and care my animals need”
