“Hannah is so amazing, responsive, and responsible. If there were 10 stars, I’d give her 10!!! My boys loved her and she took them on a fantastic walk. We will be having her help us again in the future.”

“⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Schyrita was absolutely wonderful with Stella and Viper! Knowing she was coming over to care for them gave me such incredible peace of mind while I was away. She was attentive, caring, and wonderful with both of my dogs, and I felt completely comfortable knowing they were in her care. It means so much to have someone you can trust with your pets, and I would absolutely recommend Schyrita to anyone looking for a reliable and loving pet sitter!”

About: What sets me apart is my genuine love for animals, my attention to their unique needs, and my commitment to providing personalized care. I focus on creating a bond with each pet, ensuring they feel safe, happy, and well-exercised, while keeping you updated every step of the way. I work a flexible part time job that allows me to take multiple days off when needed. I prioritize flexibility and the ability to be available most days. I am reliable and willing to accommodate any needs your furry friend might have. I also like to stay connected with updates and photos during the walk so you can keep up every step of the way. Your dogs comfort and security is my number one priority

“She has done outstanding work with my two dogs. One is extremely difficult and almost impossible for any strangers to get near, let alone get a leash on and take her for a walk. Rebecca was able to get her on a leash, take her for walks, and even pick her up, all within a few days! I was extremely desperate to find a dog walker for when I’m at work. She has by far exceeded my expectations, and I don’t know what I would’ve done without her.”

About: As a dog owner for the past 20 years I know the stress of worrying about your pets when you can't take them with you. I want to take some of that stress and worry away by providing a fun loving place for your pets to stay. I have been pet sitting for friends and family for the past 15 years. As a stay at home mom your pets will get a lot of love and attention. I also have experience with taking care of dogs with special needs. Rest assured your pets will be well loved and cared for while you are away. I currently work for myself from home, so I have plenty of availability and flexibility. Also, my two teens are usually home in the afternoons and on the weekends so there’s always somebody here with the animals. . I have two beagles that are super chill and super friendly. I also have a huge yard on a corner cul-de-sac that’s completely fenced in so there’s plenty of room for them to run around in the backyard as well as take daily walks.

About: I have worked as a kennel tech for dog daycare and took care of multiple dogs with different personalities. I’ve also pet sat cats and dogs for family friends. I typically work 4-5 days a week and work to integrate your pet needs into my schedule so that they’re taken care of while you’re away At a clients home I like to go over any safety precautions and routines so I can stick to what your pet is familiar with while I’m there.
“My experience with Elizabeth as a pet sitter was wonderful, and I would highly recommend her for any of your pet care needs. She house sat for a full month while caring for our dog and cat. Our dog can be anxious around new people and requires medication three times a day, and Elizabeth handled everything with ease. Her background in veterinary care, calm presence, and compassionate approach gave me complete confidence while we were away for several weeks. I will absolutely be contacting Elizabeth again for our future pet care needs. Thanks again!”

“Grace has been walking my dog once per week for one month. she is very reliable and always on time. i trust her with my dog. my dog will spend one whole day with Grace this weekend!!!! i highly recommend her!!!!”


About: I have had a deep passion for dogs since I was a young girl. My experience in dog care began in high school when I cared for a sick loved one’s dog. Over the course of that year, I not only gained a best friend but also developed a strong sense of responsibility and an appreciation for the joy and companionship that comes with caring for animals. Over the past 3–4 years, I have continued building my experience through dog sitting, and for the past two years, I have worked in a dog daycare and boarding facility. These experiences have strengthened my dedication to providing attentive, compassionate care while maintaining a safe and structured environment. I am committed to supporting both pets and their owners with reliability and professionalism. I start my mornings by getting my son to school between 8:30-9. Mondays & Thursdays I Work From Home with 1 dog. Tuesday Wednesday & Thursdays I’m Working In Destin. Bubba has soccer now so we attend practices and games. At my home I have a fenced backyard, enough space to crate 1-3 dogs if need be. I want the dog to be as comfortable as possible, a home away from home. As for clients homes , they are to be treated with respect & cleanliness it is their safe space, same as my home.
“Paulina is amazing! She arrived on time and went above and beyond. He was excited to see her (as evident by his tail wagging excitement). She communicated every step of the way and we received pictures too! We will use her again and again!”

“Amber was amazing!! I ask her the night before the walk and she responded immediately! Walked my Angel fur babies and kept me updated!!! Definitely will ask her again!!!!”

About: Dog lover who has raised and fostered puppies, plus hands-on experience with Shelties, Border Collies, and Pitties. I get the whole range - potty training, crate training, chewing phase, and socialization for puppies, plus brain games for herding breeds and big cuddles for pitties. I do frequent potty breaks, structured walks, enrichment, feeding, meds, and lots of photo updates. Comfortable with high energy, barkers, shy pups, and strong love bugs. Your dog gets their routine kept and a tired, happy brain. I have open availability 7 days a week for walks, drop-ins, and house sitting. Early mornings, evenings, weekends, and last-minute requests are all good with me. Puppies and kittens welcome for multiple visits a day. In your home I follow your exact routine so your pets feel safe and your home is respected. For dogs I do on-leash walks with a secure harness, poop bags and water, sniff walks for enrichment, feeding on schedule, crate time as instructed, play, and clean up. I avoid retractable leashes and dog parks unless you approve, I wipe paws, and I secure your home when I leave. For cats and kittens I do fresh food and water, scoop and clean litter boxes, play and enrichment, brushing if needed, and meds or eye drops if needed. For bottle babies and young kittens I follow your feeding chart, keep them warm, and clean them up. I keep cat and dog areas separate if needed, I never let cats outside unless you approve, and I keep everything tidy. You get an update after every visit with photos, what they ate, potty and litter details, and how they played and rested.
About: I’ve always been the person my friends and family call when they need someone to take care of their pets. I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember, and am always trying to volunteer to take shelter pups out for the day. I understand that every pet is different, and I love giving them the time and attention they need to feel safe and happy. I’m always excited to meet new furry friends! I’m currently available every day of the week! I’m a college student at Northwest Florida, but I only have one in-person class on Mondays and Wednesdays, which gives me plenty of flexibility throughout the week. I’m able to work pet care into my schedule easily and can be flexible with drop-ins, walks, and sitting! I also have base access as I am apart of the Air National Guard! I’ll be caring for your pets in their own home, where they’re most comfortable. I’ll make sure to follow any routines and instructions you leave for me, while giving them plenty of attention, playtime, and love. I know it can be stressful leaving your pets with someone new, so I’ll do my best to make them feel comfortable and keep you updated while you’re away!
About: Hi! My name is Nicole, and I absolutely love dogs of all sizes and personalities. I’m reliable, patient, and attentive, and I treat every pet like they’re my own. Whether your dog needs long walks, playtime, cuddles, or just calm companionship, I’m here to make sure they feel safe and happy while you’re away. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your fur baby, and I take that responsibility seriously! Im on alternate week schedule so it just depends on my availability I appreciate advance bookings So i can guarantee me showing up for you I’m a caring and energetic dog lover ready to give your pup the attention, exercise, and affection they deserve. Reliable, trustworthy, and always on time — your dog is in great hands with me!
About: I offer a level of expertise that goes far beyond a standard walk. My journey began with training and caring for German Shepherds at a tender age, which taught me the importance of clear communication and specialized handling. I specialize in high-energy dogs and pups that just need a little more intention to their development. Drawing inspiration from professional handlers like Cesar Milan, I incorporate cycling and movement to help high-energy, stubborn, or anxious 'fur babies' find their calm through physical fulfillment. I am also experienced in clinical support, including administering pills, topical treatments, and injections. Whether your dog is a high-performance athlete needing a bike run or a senior dealing with cognitive or mobility decline, I provide the seasoned, non-judgmental, and unconditional care they deserve. I live by the philosophy that a fulfilled dog is a happy dog, and I treat every client's pet with the same patience I give my own reactive pup. Pet care isn't just a job; it’s the core of my daily routine. Because I focus exclusively on mobile care (visits and walks), my entire day is structured around my 'Roaming Rover' missions. My mornings and afternoons are dedicated to high-energy exercise sessions—like cycling or brisk walks—ensuring your dogs are physically and mentally tired by the time you get home. Because I don’t board dogs in my own home, my schedule is 100% open to prioritize your pets in their most comfortable environment: yours. I prioritize a 'safety-first' environment by conducting a full sweep of the dog’s surroundings upon entry. I carry a professional-grade first aid kit, including cooling gear and medical essentials, to handle the Florida heat. My years of experience means I am hyper-aware of environmental triggers, ensuring your pet remains secure, hydrated, and calm throughout our entire session.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs/cat since I could walk!! Half of my family owns farms so Dogs, Cats, Pigs, Cows, Sheep, you name it! You can count on me to treat your fur babies like they are my own. I currently am working full time. On the days I do work, I usually am scheduled from 9am-5pm or 3-11pm at the latest. It’s truly no hassle since my work schedule is very flexible so we can definitely work out something based on the needs of your babies ❤️ In my clients home, my first thing that I do is try to make it as comfortable and stress free for your fur baby. I make them acquainted with who I am and make sure they get all their sniffs in. I love going on walks and playing, or if your baby is a couch potato I can take on that role as well.
About: I have extensive experience caring for dogs of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I’ve cared for dogs both personally and professionally, including providing walks, feeding, fresh water, playtime, companionship, and administering medications when needed. I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions and making sure each dog feels safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I’ve cared for dogs with different routines and needs, from energetic pups who love long walks and playtime to dogs who prefer a slower pace and lots of cuddles. I’m attentive to their behavior and always prioritize their safety and well-being. I treat every pet as if they were my own and want both the pets and their owners to feel completely comfortable and confident in my care. I currently have a very flexible schedule and am usually available in the mornings, afternoons, or evenings. I can figure out a schedule that works best for you! I live in a safe apartment and will always have your dogs on a leash. I will make sure the dog is in the crate and safe if that is requested.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement walker.
