“Cranesha was so loving and caring with Ody. I loved the pictures and text messages she sent me when she was walking him. He was so happy on his walk. I will definitely book with her again!”


About: Animal care has always been a part of my life, I volunteered at my local humane society for 10 years fostering and doing admin work, even vetting potential new adoptive pet parents. In my home I have my chow/golden mix dog, Baylee, and my indoor farm cat, Iris. They are wildly spoiled. I joined rover because when I really needed it for a trip there was no one in my area and I think I can do better for us pet owners in this area. I am based in Port St. Joe, but please inquire for rates in more distant locations. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and can handle medication/ I have a fully fenced back yard and the ability to keep boarded dogs in a separate bedroom from my own pets. For boarding I only offer the service on an emergency and last minute basis Friday evening -Sunday evening. For walks and stop-in- I have experience with all pets including fish, birds, reptiles, and smaller pets such as hedgehogs and sugar gliders. I know handling for these pets and can follow your specific instructions so your pets receive the care you want.


“I can't recommend Katie highly enough. We left our little buddy George with her, and I never worried for a second. She is dependable, trustworthy, and responsive. She radiates warmth and kindness. George took to her right away. As an Aussie, George is a high energy dog that needs lots of attention, and Katie went out of her way to give him what he needed; taking him to the dog park and arranging for him to play with her dog. She left us detailed notes, and sent pictures. She took excellent care of our home and plants. She left us homemade soup that was delicious!! We are extremely lucky to have found her. We will be using her again in a couple of months when we go on our next trip.”

Josh tended to the sick and homeless and also provided foster care in his own home. He is proficient in caring for animals with special needs and will provide TLC to your furry family member.
