“Anas & Tate took great care of my dog. Izzy is a bigger fairly high energy Airedale. Anas & Tate had no problems handling his needs. Their setup is beautiful. I quite big fenced yard allowed for plenty of exercise while being totally secure. They kept me updated with cute pictures and videos during Izzy’s stay. I wouldn’t hesitate to rely on them again as the need arises.”
“My dog had a great stay with Adam. This was her second stay, and she was so excited to see him and both his dogs again. He even went out of his way to plan a play date between my dog and a dog friend she made on her first visit. My dog will continue to stay with Adam when she needs a sitter!”
“Alexander and Josephine have been absolutely the best dog sitters/boarders anybody can ask for. They took care of my dog made him feel so at home and loved that it feels like he prefers them over me (wait a minute, is this a good thing?). All jokes aside, they didn’t hesitate to continue taking care of him even after my circumstances forced me to be away for another week. They also made sure my dog felt comfortable as he could be during July 4 fireworks. And took extra care to train him a little bit when he was showing behavioral problems. Absolutely love them! They have definitely gotten a loyal client!”
“I love that they always responded in a timely manor, their home was pet friendly and Riley had a blast. I really appreciated all the check-in’s and photos. I will definitely be rebooking when it’s needed!!!!”
“Mrs. Lissaida and her family did an amazing job caring for my baby! She sent daily updates and photos, which I really appreciated. I’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
“She is incredibly kind and thoughtful. It was our first time being away from our dog, so we had a lot of worries. But thanks to her, we were able to enjoy our trip with peace of mind. She took great care of our dog and always responded quickly, which was very reassuring. She also sent us photos of our dog every day, which made us feel connected. I'm truly grateful we found her.”
“There is a lot to be said for peace of mind. That's what Mona provides. She is competent, stable and considerate. In addition to being pleasant and easy to deal with, you can tell that she could handle any unforeseen situation. She is retired and able to spend time with the animals in her care. On an overnight stay, she maintained good communication and included photos. Her text was filled with the kind of info a pet parent wants to know, not kid-stuff trivia about having fun. Her house is charming, clean and in a nice safe neighborhood. A fenced in back yard is "must" for my busy Aussie. Highly recommend..”
“Mohini was so great with us and Luna. Very responsive and helpful when a sitter had to cancel on us last minute. She sent us photos and asked questions to make sure Luna had the best care. If we pass through Gainesville/Alachua again, we would definitely have her care for Luna again.”
“Molly was the perfect host for our old little man! It’s clear she has a love for animals and an excellent understanding of animal behavior. Her property is set up to accommodate all kinds of pets. She’s very patient, communicative and kind. I wholeheartedly recommend her!”
“Alistar was amazing. Our Lady is not always an easy dog. She has separation anxiety and is has a terrible fear of storms. Alistar took great care of her. She wasn’t eating so he made her a steak. He sent me pictures and videos to ease our worries about leaving her. I will always use Alistar when we need a sitter. Thank you for being so kind to our sweet Lady.”
“I have used Angelie's services twice now and will be going with her again for our next trip. I know my dogs are in good hands with someone who loves and knows them!”
“Joshua and Lesley exceeded our expectations. This is the first time we’ve tried pet sitting outside of a boarding. As a family with a very loving but energetic dog we were skeptical if someone would give our pet the care and patience he needs. Joshua and Lesley put our minds at ease since the first day we met them. They are passionately driven professionals and have gained our trust for future sitting. Quick response times, regular updates and lots of pictures. This is the team to get. Your dog will love them.”
“I’ve boarding my two pups, Nora & Clementine, with Edward twice now and they are always so happy when we drop them off and pick them up. My girls just love Edward and his partner Barbie so much! Edward is always so communicative and sends me cute photos of the girls. Will definitely continue to board with Edward in the future.”
“Second time booking with Miranda and she was great again! She always responds very quickly, is understanding/accommodating, and keeps me updated with photos :)”
“Jillian was super awesome with my cat! She kept me informed and sent me photos every day! Pepsi was very happy with it. I recommend it 100%. I would use her services again and again. Thank you Jillian for taking such good care of Pepsi. I am very grateful.”
“Highly recommend Jimmey to anyone looking for someone who really understands dog behavior. I had a very difficult situation with a new foster dog Loki who had been physically abused and had some fear aggression toward strangers, including barking lunging snapping etc. He is a big ball of love once he knows you aren't going to hurt him, but this obviously is a difficult case to ask just your average friend to petsit! I knew he needed someone with a lot of experience that had the right temperament and knowledge to handle a dog with this kind of behavior. I could tell by talking with Jimmey that he knew his stuff, and this was only confirmed when we did the meet/dropoff - he was not phased by Loki's reactive outbursts, and remained confident but relaxed. With such a sensitive and insecure dog, even a single bad or upsetting experience could have easily exacerbated his trauma and potentially made his aggressive behaviors even worse, so I couldn't be happier to have found someone like Jimmey. Worth every penny to see Loki make some baby steps toward being ready to find his forever home!”
