“I was very satisfied with Amy. She came before the stay so both my cat and I could become acquainted and review house access. She and my cat were immediate friends. She sent me pictures each day and we communicated by text and email. My house looked better when I returned than when I left. She is very kind and caring and I would recommend her without any qualms.”
“Maverick was great! He was everything we needed in a puppy sitter. He was communicative and polite and the house was in great shape when we returned. 10/10 would use again!!!”
“Kristie looked after out pit-mix and cat for a weekend and was fantastic. She was gracious and asked great questions during our initial meet and greet. She gave us updates and pics throughout the weekend. She was such a calm presence for our animals while we were away. Our home was clean and looked great, when we returned. We would definitely rebook with her. Thank you Kristie!”
“Lauren is an exceptional sitter. She really understood the different needs of our dogs and was conscientious in every way. She was also very communicative and took great care of our home. We look forward to booking her again!”
“Cathryn watched my dog Gracie for 12 days. She was amazing with her and sent me pictures and an update daily. She even had a little birthday party for her since I could not be there with her. I would highly recommend her and will not hesitate using her in the future.”
“Jeweliana and Riley took excellent care of our two dogs while we were on vacation for 10 days. They sent us lots of updates and pictures while we were away, which gave us peace of mind our pups were in such good hands. Our house was spotless when we returned and our fur babies were very happy. We will absolutely book them again!”
“Philip was available to meet at the last minute and was very flexible in meeting up to meet my dog. He had responsive communication during the whole time I went out of town . My dog was very happy and well taken care of. I am so glad to find someone to keep my dog for in the future. Thank you Philip!”
About: I’ve taken care of my personal dogs as well as family dogs for years. I love to play with them and just sit and cuddle with them as well. I am currently a graduate student at Jacksonville University. I am available after 2pm everyday, and on the weekends I can do all day! I am also usually up pretty late at nights so can do late night walks/sitting as well. I am a very trustworthy person. On walks I will make sure they don’t get into anything that may be harmful and always be prepared when in contact with other people/animals.
“Fantastic temperament! My female poodle was not used to a housesitter and decided to spend the first day and a half barking and Johana handled it well. Would HIGHLY recommend her!”
“Very appreciative of Evan stepping in to sit for our dog and cats. He was very communicative and took great care of our four footed family. Would highly recommend Evan.”
About: I might not have ever owned dogs myself, due to allergies within my family, but don’t fear! I have always been first choice amongst my parents friends/family to dog sit! I’ve always done a great job & felt confident in my care giving, instruction following, and love and play giving. 🤗 I decided to lean more into my side hustles, and this would be a great additive to keep me moving, having an extra dollar in my pocket, keeping me involved and present with animals, and to be of service to my community. All which I value greatly! My side hustles include running Markets (Mom’s Elderberry booth at the Riverside Arts Market), Basketball/Sports photography, home/kitchen/fridge/depression room cleaning services + energy cleansing, Social Media Managing, creating/selling my own art, and a bunch of other random stuff along the way! I include this information to benefit your understanding of me as a person as well as just in case you have a need for any other service and would like to see if I’m fit for the job :) I am cleanly, careful, and I won’t creep around in your space. I will make our interactions quick, easy, and painless. I will do my very best to consistently keep you in the loop, send you picture updates of your babies, and follow your instructions just as they’re given. If I have questions or would like further direction, I will not be afraid of asking you. I’m a team player and would like to make this service to you feel like a breath of fresh air.
“My two Boston Terriers were well taken care of by Scott while I was on vacation. I received daily photos and updates on their dog walks and I could tell they were very comfy with Scott as their sitter. He played with them, gave them their fav treats and followed care guide great. My very cautious cat even made an appearance or two. Will definitely rebook next time I travel!”
About: I’ve been loving on our four legged friends since I can remember! Family, friends, and neighbors have trusted their loved ones in my care since I was a kid and now I have my own four legged friend who I love with my entire heart! It’s true when they say, “Pets are family!” I’ve kept schedules of walks, medicine administration to all ages, play time, snuggle time, had many sleepovers in the owners home to having their loved one stay with me in my home; and yes even reading a bedtime story to a furry friend! I always enjoy taking pictures of your loved one so you can put your mind at ease knowing they are in great hands! Let me love your loved one like he/she is my own family! I currently have a very wide open schedule! Therefore, I have a lot of time for your loved one! Any day, time, or place I’ll be there! Send ‘Rover’ over! With my past dogs, I would care for them daily. I woke up to snuggles and kisses and often times, I'd go walk the dogs before I even went to the bathroom lol. They were my best friends! We loved to play, go for walks, or at times I'd even tell them stories like they knew what I was talking about haha. Dogs are like children. I wouldn't treat your dog any differently than mine, which means they would be treated as family!!
“Shar is fantastic. She took great care of our Monroe (domestic short hair cat) while we were gone for a week. She followed all instructions, kept the house clean and gave lots of love to our baby. I could tell our cat had gotten pretty attached to her. Thank you Shar!!”
“Madeline took SUCH amazing care of my dog when I got caught in a bind and we needed house sitting for the weekend. I came home to a happy, relaxed, and well cared for pup! She kept me updated through the whole weekend with plenty of photos and any questions she had to best care for Bruce. If I could give 10 stars I would, and I look forward to having her back in the future!”
“Great experience as always! Mandy takes very good care of by boy, Zippy! He loves when she comes over and loves to snuggle! Thank you for another wonderful stay!”

Shanna took exceptional care of my two senior dogs while I was away, and I truly couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. Caring for senior pets can be challenging since they require daily medications and extra attention, but Shanna handled everything flawlessly. She was incredibly sweet, patient, and caring with them, which gave me tremendous peace of mind. Throughout the stay, she sent multiple updates and photos each day, so I always knew they were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. It’s clear that Shanna genuinely loves animals and treats them like her own. I would absolutely trust her with my dogs again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate pet sitter.
Maverick was amazing with our two Shibas. He was super responsive, respectful of our property, and great with the boys. Our fur babies can be quirky and he followed all of our instructions. The boys were happy and healthy when we got home. I think he really treated them well and we will absolutely book with him if the need ever arises again!
Bayli was absolutely amazing watching our two dogs over the weekend! She was incredibly communicative and responsive the entire time, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She sent tons of pictures and updates, and it was clear our dogs were happy, comfortable, and very well cared for. She also took great care of our home and kept everything clean and in order, which we really appreciated coming back home to. You can tell she genuinely cares about the animals she watches and goes above and beyond to make sure both the pets and owners feel comfortable. We would 100% trust her with our dogs again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, thoughtful, and caring dog sitter!
Atreyu took amazing care of Nico and we couldn’t be happier. He followed every single instruction carefully, kept us updated throughout the stay, and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. Communication was excellent from start to finish. He sent regular updates and clearly paid close attention to Nico’s routines and needs. It’s obvious he genuinely cares about the pets he looks after. On top of that, he left our place in excellent condition. Everything was clean, organized, and just as we left it. We would absolutely trust Atreyu again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a responsible, attentive, and reliable sitter.
