“Animals were super happy with Shannon! Our cat doesn't warm up quickly to new people, but he was immediately very social during Shannon's stay, and came home to happy pets. Thanks Shannon!”
“Stephanie is incredible!! She has great communication and sends a ton of updates. I could tell from the photos she was sending me dogs were obsessed with her! I could not say enough good things about Stephanie! We will 100% only be using her going forward :)”
“Anthea took such wonderful care of my dogs, and of my home! She went above and beyond to care for my two older dogs, making sure they got lots of walks and took their medication, just to name a few things. I swear my house was cleaner coming home than when I left it; completely unnecessary, but so so appreciated after a long trip. My partner and I particularly loved the nightly updates complete with notes from the day and lots of pictures. We’ve had a couple terrible experiences leaving our pets in the past, but Anthea was so on top of everything we really were able to relax while we were away. Thank you again!!”
“Peter really helped us out in a pinch! We were going out of town and Momo wasn’t able to go to her usual daycare, so Peter stayed with her in our home. This was her first experience staying at home without us and she was definitely anxious and skittish the first day. But Peter was very sweet and patient with her. He took things slowly in order to get Momo comfortable with him. He sent lots of updates and pictures, which really put us at ease. He took her on daily walks, played with her, made sure she took her medication, and took such good care of her. Momo was in great hands and we can’t recommend Peter enough!”
“Noemi was very kind and patient with my two large dogs, one of whom is very high energy, and the other who is very shy and fearful. Noemi sent many pictures and kept me updated throughout my trip. She left my home cleaner than she found it, and the dogs were fine when I got back. I can recommend her heartily!”
“Flynn was great, we felt comfortable and relaxed while he watched our dog. He clearly has a touch with animals and especially dogs with anxiety. He was communicative and made sure everything was taken care of so we could enjoy our time away!”
“We booked James for a dual job of house and dog sitting, and he was great! He kept us updated, checked in and our Bowie loved him to death- and Bowie isn’t easy to win over! James is clean, trustworthy, honest, and solves his own issues with respect and thoughtfulness. Highly recommend him and we will be repeat customers!”
“Molly was able to help me out with a last-minute sit for my dog, and she was great! Communicative, reliable, and great with my anxious pup - we're glad we found her!”
“Thanks again Heidi!! Heidi took great care of our Lab Sam and our daughter’s Maltipoo Bruce during the holidays. We were able to enjoy our vacation worry free knowing Heidi had things covered at home.”
“We feel such at ease when Renata is watching our little guys. We know they’re happy and well taken care of. She left our place nicer than we left it. Always appreciate her care attention and communication. Thanks again :)”
“Laura is so sweet & loving to my Wally! As much as I miss him when I'm away, it's so comforting to know that he is being loved & well cared for. Thanks a million, Laura!”
“Danny couldn’t have been better. He was invested on my dog’s habits, routine, and was willing to take the time to really get to know him and take care of him. As long as he allows, Danny will be my first choice.”
“Julian was amazing with my dogs. I have two rescues and Julian really understands dog behavior and body language. The dogs immediately loved Julian. I am so grateful to have had someone so skilled, kind, and communicative taking care of them. I was able to enjoy my trip with zero worries.”
“I’ve used Kayla more than once to watch my kitties. Each time, she’s incredibly communicative, responsible, reliable, and sends a ton of photos! She’s kept my apartment clean and organized, and it takes a huge weight off my shoulders knowing my home and my babies are in good hands. I travel a good bit, and I’m happy to continue booking Kayla in the future as long as she’s available.”
“Daisy took such great care of our dog Maebe during a week long house sit! Lots of walks and attention and the house was in perfect condition. Made me feel good about Maebe’s needs being met as she has some separation anxiety, and we were traveling to the East Coast. I would book Daisy again! 5 stars! ✨”
“Joseph was great! He was very communicative and helped us negotiate a schedule change without any worries. Joseph was flexible and the dogs loved having him here!”
“mans was awesome. both dogs loved them, and the extra care they gave both the pups and the house was impressive. they were consistent with pupdates and adorable pictures throughout the entire stay, giving us great peace of mind knowing our boys were happy and at ease. we will absolutely book again. mans is our official go-to.”
“Liza was a great dog/housesitter! I have a fairly sensitive dog and she understood him well and he was happy and engaged during the entire visit. She was also very communicative and sent me regular updates. Would 100% recommend.”
About: I have always had animals in my life. I have been a frequent cat and dog sitter to friends and family and I put my heart into caring for them. No matter the needs of your doggo I will make sure they are happy and engaged. I have experience walking dogs for a shelter in Denver and previously in Brooklyn and love to be out and about with all types of dogs! I have a flexible schedule while I primarily work remotely. I am a very professional, reliable and punctual person looking to have more time with animals and the outdoors. I currently have a flexible schedule during the week days and weekends. I prefer early mornings or afternoons for in home visits and walks, but can accommodate most schedules. I am happy to take care of your pet in your home. I currently have 2 cats in my home that will not be compatible with dogs staying over with me. I can stay overnight if requested or can visit as needed for walks or play time!

Courtney M.Star Sitter
“I highly recommend Courtney as a responsible and loving pet caregiver. She has an incredible ability to quickly form bonds with animals and is always so loving and attentive. Courtney truly understands that every pet is unique, and adapts her care to suit each animal’s individual personality. With many years of experience walking dogs at the shelter and a lifetime of loving cats, she’s shown remarkable dedication to the well-being of all animals in her care. She has a great deal of experience looking after friends’ cats while their owners are away, and also has two cats of her own, making her especially knowledgeable and caring with felines. Your pets will be in excellent hands with her!”
