About: I love dogs! Since the age of 13 I have been fostering dogs and have raised a guide dog for The Guide Dog Foundation. I also worked as a Canine Care Technician for Dogs Inc. (formerly Southeastern Guide Dogs) for a year before starting my family. I have hands on experience with training dogs, administering medications, and day to day care of dogs and puppies 1 day old - 10+ years. I am a stay at home mom so my schedule is flexible and we are home most of the day. I have a one year old daughter that loves dogs and a labradoodle who has lots of energy to play! I care for your dog like they are mine! I have a fenced in yard, I love to take them on walks, play games in the yard, and cuddle (if they like that).

About: Although most people see this as a job, i see pet-sitting as a fun and exciting opportunity to make new friends all with their own personalities:)! Seeing as i don’t really find myself going out much now-a-days, pet sitting seems like the only right option needed to be taken way sooner. I believe in everyone having their own schedules for their babies, so i try to keep their routines to allow more comfort for all parties.

About: Experienced pet sitter offering compassionate care, including feeding, walking, grooming, administering medication, and providing companionship for dogs, cats, and small animals while owners are away. Pet care fits into my daily routine by ensuring regular walks, feeding, playtime, and attention. Weekly, I schedule grooming, vet visits, and socialization, balancing pet needs with other responsibilities. I care for pets by maintaining their routine, providing regular exercise, feeding, and grooming. In my home, I ensure a safe, comfortable environment, while in a client’s home, I follow their pet’s usual schedule and household rules, offering updates and keeping their space clean and secure.

“Dropped dog off, Nice neigh, nice house. Mathew was personable and friendly. I know my dog enjoyed their dogs and kids. Nice report card and pictures. Plan to use again.”


About: I have an english cocker that goes everywhere with me and that get's along with any dog. Our fur babies are still our babies, even after we had human babies. I have experience working with dog rescues, fostering a pup and her puppies, and working at animal shelters. I work remote so I am available anytime during the day. I am also available evenings if scheduled in advance. Also available to sit overnight. I have a fenced in yard and a fur baby that loves other dogs to keep them company. If you wish, I can also easily crate your dog in our XL crate we have from our 100 pound chocolate lab that passed away.


“Lana was such a great sitter for my fur baby. I was so nervous leaving her but, Lana sent me pics through the day so I didn’t have to worry about her. Kona was well taken care of. I would 100% recommend and will definitely book again!”


About: I am in a fellowship at Stanford, where I write from home full-time. I recently graduated from University of Miami, and before that I went to Emory where I also took care of pups! Dog-walking and general care provide a stress-free outlet from my writing and research, and a way to engage health and well-being beyond myself. As a member of a big family with many kids, taking care of pets is as natural for me as taking care of my nieces and nephews. Care and consideration are integral to all encounters with pets, and my experience with my nieces and nephews has taught me the necessary patience, attention, and care needed to attend to individuals’ prized family members. When dog walking, I see it as mutual exercise, and when pet sitting it’s mutual time spent. I am interested in extending my personal care to include those who cannot fully care for themselves. 🤗 I’m an artist, so taking care of Jazz and other pups is the main structure of my day. I plan my reading, writing, and screen time around our walks and play time. I rely on our routine for my own benefit as much as keeping a consistent balance for them, too. I believe in infinite grace and freedom. I will let the pets roam free, have their own time, play, and even cuddle when they like. I do have rules around rough playing, getting on furniture, or incessant barking or anything of the like. Most dogs have a way of showing you what the need, and I pride myself on being patient and understanding what exactly that is! Even if they do something I don’t like or that isn’t fair, I see how it can come from excitement or it may be out of their control or simply anxiety, so I also pride myself on setting clear but graceful boundaries that don’t intimidate or scold any pups. Every behavior has a reason!

About: I’ve been dog sitting for over two years now! It has been the best job imaginable. I have a great house & yard for your furry friends. I work part time, but it is a remote position, so I am home pretty much all the time. I will be able to monitor your pets all hours of the day. I have a good yard for running & exploring, as well as a very dog-friendly inside. I am also more than willing to stay with your dog at your residence.

About: We will only house dogs that are under 30 pounds this time. They can free run or they can stay in the pet designated areas if you prefer them to. My husband is retired and full time staying home . And I work part time and flexible hours. We are flexible to meet your needs. We have a fenced yard, your pet will have plenty of attention and playtime. We can let them out as many as they need and under our supervision.

About: Welcome to a world where dogs aren’t just pets, they’re family! I’m thrilled to share that for over 17 years, I’ve been living the dream alongside my three fur-babies, Ollie, Kai, and Bailey. In our home, it’s all about tail wags, belly rubs, and endless cuddles. We have a special room just for them, filled with toys and comfy spots, perfect for those lazy afternoon naps or energetic play sessions. Our days are sprinkled with fun adventures to the park, where we chase balls, make new friends, and bask in the sunshine. It’s not just my trio that gets this VIP treatment; I’ve opened my heart and home to other dogs too, caring for them while their families are away. They jump right into our pack, and it’s always a party! As a proud doggy mom, I totally get what it means to want the best for your furry friend. So, bring your pup over for a stay filled with laughter, love, and lots of treats. We can’t wait to meet them and make some pawsome memories together! 🐾✨ Pet care is an integral part of my daily routine. Each day begins and ends with ensuring the pets in my care are happy and healthy. Mornings are dedicated to feeding, walks, and playtime. Evenings are for winding down with a gentle walk and some cozy relaxation time. On weekends, I spend extra time engaging in longer walks or visits to the dog park, ensuring the pets have a fun and active time. My flexible schedule allows me to adapt to the unique needs of each pet, ensuring they receive the best care possible. In my home, pets are treated as part of the family. They have access to comfortable sleeping areas, safe play spaces, and receive constant attention and care. I adhere to their feeding and exercise routines meticulously and ensure they feel loved and secure. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their environment and follow the pet’s routine as closely as possible. I prioritize safety, comfort, and following the specific instructions provided by the owner, ensuring a seamless experience for the pet.

About: I’ve had pets all my life. While living on my own I maintain 2 cats and 2 cats. Pets are part of the family and should be treated as such. Love all types of pets and getting to know their personalities. I do work, but will take off for rover and your pets!! I walk my dogs at least 6-7 times a day and my gets a new litter once a week. All pets in a house have a running water supply and have nothing they can chew in and harm themselves. Plenty of toys to keep stimulated.

About: I've grown up around and cared for animals (mostly cats and dogs) throughout my entire life.. family, friends, and neighbors come to me to care for their pets in either their homes or mine. I have a cat and dog, and have dealt with cats of all demeanors and dogs of all sizes. I abide by Brandon McMillan's Lucky Dog methods, and am experienced with standard training. Also know how to administer meds, and handle emergencies if they occur. I live in SE Tallahassee on a fenced acre, and my entire house is pet-friendly.. it's kind of like a little slice of paradise. Also have a pool, if yours likes to swim like mine. Pet care is normal for me. They let me know what they need, and I take care of it. I work from home, so am always around to ensure pets are taken care of as required. Regardless of where your pet is watched, their needs and your expectations determine care requirements. At your home, I'll follow your routine. My place is on mine. Before committing to anything, I require an introduction meeting with any pets I'll be caring for.

She took care of my dog, Max, for a weekend while I was away, and I was so impressed with the level of care and attention she gave him. She made sure he had plenty of exercise, playtime, and snuggles, and I loved getting updates and photos throughout the weekend.

Shyrah is responsible, dependable, and trustworthy, and I’ll definitely be using her services again in the future. Highly recommend!"”

Spencer S.
“Spencer loves dogs and they always seem to love him! I think he is kind of a dog “whisperer”, he definitely has a connection of love when being around dogs. He also will befriend any cat and really does have a deep interest and care when around animals. I think some of Spencer’s best hours in a nutshell are playing and nurturing and being loved back by man’s best friend♥️”
