“Barbra spent another weekend at our house with Ali. Our dog enjoyed her company and she left our house just as we left it. Barbra gave updates with great pics of our girl throughout the stay. Still highly recommend!”


2. Zach B.

“Zach took excellent care of all of my fur babies. He was great with last minute changes and let me know how they were doing daily. I truly appreciate him and the amazing care he took of all of them!”


3. Janiellee A.

“Janielly provided exceptional care for our senior dog, Niko, while we were away for a family wedding. Her professionalism and attention to detail truly set her apart. She took the time to meet Niko beforehand, ensuring he felt comfortable and familiar with her, which gave us peace of mind. Throughout her time with him, she kept us updated regularly, demonstrating her reliability and genuine care. We greatly appreciated her commitment to maintaining Niko’s routine in the comfort of our home, as his age required special consideration. For anyone seeking a trustworthy, attentive, and compassionate pet caregiver, we highly recommend Janielly. She exceeded our expectations in every way!”


4. Nusa S.

“Nusa watched our Shih-tzu Charley for several hours while we went to dinner. She was very sweet - and sent us several photos during the evening updating us on everything. Charley was very happy - and we were able to relax knowing he was in good hands. Highly recommend!!!!”


5. Eunice A.

“Eunice was so great! She was so nice, timely, and did everything we asked. She took great care of Roscoe and he seemed like a happy little man when we got home. I would hire her again! 😁”


6. Monique R.
“I truly can’t say enough good things about Monique—she is an absolute dream of a dog sitter. From our very first interaction, she was kind, professional, and incredibly thoughtful. She took the time to ask questions about my pup’s routine, quirks, and preferences, which immediately put me at ease. It was obvious she genuinely cared about making the experience as smooth and stress-free as possible—not just for my dog, but for me too! Throughout the entire stay, Monique sent regular updates, adorable photos, and thoughtful messages that showed just how much attention and love she was giving him. I never once had to worry, and I could tell from the photos (and his body language!) that he was relaxed, happy, and well cared for. When I came home, he was calm, content, and clearly bonded with Monique—it was like he had been on his own little vacation. Monique even left a sweet note and made sure everything was spotless before she left, which was such a kind and professional touch. She’s reliable, responsive, and clearly has a natural way with animals. I feel so lucky to have found her, and she will absolutely be my go-to sitter moving forward. If you’re looking for someone who will treat your pet like family, look no further than Monique!”


7. Karin G.

“Karin was a great sitter for my lab Nova, she sent pictures throughout the time she was with her and kept me updated on how she was doing! Would 100% recommend!”


8. Avery D.

“Avery was absolutely amazing! Our dogs loved her and she left our house incredibly neat and clean. I would absolutely suggest her to everyone and I plan to use her again!!”


9. Abigail C.


“Abby took great care of Macey for the weekend while we were out of town. She was so easy to coordinate with and quick to confirm. Great experience and will definitely be rebooking soon, thanks Abby!”


10. Kyleigh O.
“Kyleigh is wonderful with animals. She has a knack and love for cats and dogs. She is dependable, responsible, and reliable to take the best care of your furry best friend.”


11. Patricia B.


“Patricia was fantastic!! I received constant pics & videos. She is fairly priced & truly loves dogs. I have sensitive pups. One is 1.5 years, 1 is 3 years & I could tell they absolutely enjoyed Patricia’s company. I am new to the area (and state), so I was really nervous about choosing a “stranger” to care for my beloved pups. Patricia came for a meet & greet, and I could tell the pups liked her right away. I didn’t even meet with anyone else, my mind was made up right away. You will not be disappointed, nor will your pets, if Patricia cares for them. I will absolutely use Patricia again!”


12. Alexis R.

“Alexis is absolutely amazing! My 3 pups love her! She was always sending photos and videos for our enjoyment and we felt so safe and happy that the pups were being well taken care of. She is a pleasant and responsible gal who we look forward to seeing again!”


13. Kallie P.

“Kallie was absolutely incredible, my pup can be a little nervous sometimes & immediately was comfortable with her. She never failed to update me with photos and how the day was going. I will definitely be using her again ♥️”


14. Sophia K.
“Sophia was an amazing pet sitter for my cat, Stinky. I asked Sophie to look after my cat so many times I lost count, and she became affectionately known Stinky's aunty to the whole family. She was a superb pet sitter, and I know her to be a kind, respectful person who will love and care for both you fur baby and your home. She loves all animals, including yours! I would recommend Sophie as a pet sitter. 11 out of 10.”


15. Anna F.

“Anna was wonderful with our pup! Great communication and updates.”


16. Deanna B.

“Deanna was absolutely amazing! I felt completely at ease knowing she was not only taking great care of my dog, Oscar, but also looking after my home. She sent daily updates with fun and thoughtful photos that made being away so much easier. It was clear Oscar was being loved and treated like one of her own. I’m so thankful for her care and attention and will definitely be using her for all my future dog sitting needs. Highly recommend her services! Thank you so much, Deanna!”


17. Michael D.
“Michael is a sweetheart & great with pets! He has experience with all different species. I know that he grew up with leopard geckos, cats, and dogs. He has a mini dachshund right now and she is his whole world. His full time job is being a high school English teacher at a school in Tampa and I know he lives very central in Tampa, so if you need several drop-in visits per day he can accommodate several areas. Overall FIVE STAR recommendation. You can feel secure and comfortable with Michael in your home and caring for your pets. He is very punctual and organized.”


18. Ryan S.
About: I’ve cared for animals for thirty years and love spending time with them! I am experienced in training dogs and spotting unwanted behavior as well as administering medicine etc. I enjoy playing with pets and would love to help you keep yours happy and healthy! I no longer have a yard but take I work from home and I am very flexible so I have no problem going to take care of your loved one or bringing them over to have a sleepover! My dog is crate trained for when I have visiting animals over. I make sure they are in a comfortable setting and know they are safe and sound!


19. Christie R.

“Christie was terrific! She took great care of Coco, which gave us a day off for fun on our anniversary. We will definitely work with her again. Thank you Christie!”


20. Nancy G.

“Nancy did a wonderful job caring for my dog, Mila! She communicated frequently and sent pictures to keep me updated. I would definitely request Nancy again to watch Mila 😊”
