About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life and have over 15 years of hands-on experience caring for pets! From feeding, walking, bathing, and playtime to making sure they feel loved and comfortable, caring for animals has always come naturally to me. I’m also a proud dog mom to my Golden Retriever, Gus, who keeps me on my toes and has given me plenty of experience with active, energetic pups! I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I always make it a priority to give them the individual attention they deserve. Whether your pup needs a long walk to burn off some energy, a quick check-in during the day, or someone to keep them company while you’re away, I’m happy to help! I know how much trust it takes to leave your pets in someone else’s care, and I promise to treat yours with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, happy, and loved while giving their owners complete peace of mind! I work in real estate and have a flexible schedule, allowing me to easily accommodate walks, drop-in visits, and overnight stays. I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine to make sure they get the attention and care they deserve! Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities! I treat every pet like my own and make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable in their familiar environment. I always respect your home, follow your pet’s routine, and provide plenty of updates while you’re away!

“Review in one word: PERFECT Review in paragraph: When I first reached out to Caroline she set up a visit to meet our girl and get an idea of our expectations as well as our home (impressed - no one else did this). She is available at a moments notice, spends more time than expected, walks, plays fetch, sends numerous pictures (loveee) and last but not least writes the most AMAZING stories about their time together. Currently trying to convince her to write a book....long story short - she's the best dog sitter I've ever had and I won't use anyone else. She goes above and beyond and always makes us more than thrilled that our pup spends time with her.”

“We highly recommend Taylor! Last minute travel left us in the lurch, and she was able to fit in some time with our fur-baby each day. She was easy to communicate with, reliable, and sent us pics from each visit (where we could see our boy was super happy to see her.) We will absolutely reach out to Taylor again in the future.”

About: Hi I’m Rickie, I’m grateful to be a requested pup sitter with a loyal referral business built on trust. My goal is to keep your pups routine as normal as possible, while providing company, play, excellent care and love too! Since my beloved Havanese companion of 11 yrs passed away, I now fill my heart with caring for yours! So if you're wanting to go on vacation or a business trip, you can have peace of mind knowing your pup(s) will be well cared for, attended to and given the love and snuggles as if you were home. I always set up a meet and greet beforehand to make sure your dog agrees with my smells, and for you to feel comfortable with how your dog and I interact with one another. My schedule is flexible and I take them on daily walks, based on the needs of the pups. Usually smaller dogs need less and the big ones more exercise and play.

About: I am a dedicated and dependable pet care provider with over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for animals independently. I have grown up around pets my entire life and have cared for a wide variety of animals, including dogs, cats, chickens, rabbits, rats, fish, and turtles. This diverse background has given me strong instincts, adaptability, and a deep understanding of individual animal needs. I currently own a cat who is a cherished companion, and caring for her has reinforced my commitment to providing patient, attentive, and high-quality care. I treat every pet as if they were my own and understand how important trust and communication are when caring for someone else’s beloved animals. My goal is to ensure that every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved, whether through daily care, companionship, feeding, or maintaining routines. I take pride in being reliable, gentle, and attentive, and I am passionate about helping pet owners feel confident and at ease while they are away. I work as a server, so my schedule can vary from week to week; however, I typically work evening shifts from around 4:00 PM to 9:00 PM. This makes me most available for pet care during morning and early afternoon hours (approximately 8:00 AM to 2:00 PM), which works well for daily visits, walks, and check-ins. I am happy to accommodate overnight pet sitting, and I always communicate my work schedule in advance to ensure it aligns with both the pet’s routine and the owner’s expectations. Clear communication is a priority for me, and I strive to make sure every pet receives consistent, reliable care while their owner is away. I understand that every pet and owner has unique needs, routines, and expectations. I am committed to working closely with pet parents to ensure all care requirements are met, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and daily routines. Whether a pet thrives on a structured schedule or prefers a more flexible, relaxed routine, I am happy to accommodate what works best for both the pet and the owner. My goal is always to provide consistent, attentive care while making the experience as stress-free and comfortable as possible for everyone involved.

“Emma was great, cheerful and my dog took to her right away. She also took care of my very last minute walk lightening fast and with great communication!”

I have experience walking and most importantly loving on all animals! I am currently awaiting for my job to start so I have open availability! Once I start work at the end of February , I will be available all weekends! My current house doesnt allow pets, but in a clients home dog and cat safety is my top priority. I understand that our animals need to be loved and protected!

About: I’ve had family dogs my whole life and have enjoyed caring for them since I can remember. I currently live with my pet bird, snake, and two lizards. My professional experience is in the wildlife field so I am passionate about animals of all shapes and sizes. I have experience in enrichment creation and enjoy finding new and exciting ways to keep your dog mentally and physically healthy. I’m currently in my off-season for wildlife work, so my schedule is fairly flexible. I will be starting a new job at the end of September but can make consistent weekly arrangements. Living with a bird, I am constantly cleaning so this is part of my routine when caring for other peoples pets as well. I am able to bring your pets in my car if needed as well.

“Angelle was very kind and caring with our fury loved ones. She asked question that were exclusively about our needs. Very detailed. Absolutely would recommend her every time. THANK YOU, Angelle”

About: I've owned and trained large and small dogs for more than 20 years. I love meeting and caring for others pets as well as my own! My schedule is extremely flexible and can accommodate almost all requests! I only work two days of the week in the office and those can be rotated to fit most schedules. I have two pet parks in my neighborhood and a lot of places to walk and play. I do prefer a more quiet and low energy atmosphere to keep pets calm and happy.

About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was a little girl. I simply adore pets of any kind. If given the chance with your fur baby, I will treat them like my own. I currently live on the island of Longboat Key full time so this makes it perfect for individuals who work or are snowbirds and need a sitter only during certain months. I have a fully fenced in property and love to be outside and having fun with your pet. I also travel to your home too, if needed.

“Really came through in a pinch!!”
