“I can say honestly hands down Emili was the best. I’ve never had to leave lax with anyone , so when this trip came up , I needed someone I could trust explicitly. I met Emili with Lax one afternoon and he definitely liked her as well as I did. She took notes about lax ( habits, eating schedules , vet and was very thorough with anll her questions . She went over hs medications and kept me abreast of all that he was doing . I so appreciated the pics and check ins as it made the trip much easier . I knowing he was so well taken care of . I would definitely use Emili again .”
“I booked Brittany last minute and she was amazing!! Super quick to respond, very easy to work with, and made the whole process stress-free. My big baby doodles were well cared for and happy boys in all the pictures she sent! I’m so grateful for Brittany and will definitely book her again!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Jamie was wonderful. I will definitely be working with her in the future. Very friendly, great with my furry family members, and she even sent me photos throughout the day which was very comforting and the kitties were very happy!”
“This was our first time booking with Tammy and we will definitely be using her again in the future! Great communication, she kept us updated with pictures of our pups!”
“I cannot recommend this sitter enough! We needed last-minute help with our cat, and she went above and beyond. She took amazing care of our cat, cleaned up after her, and made sure everything was taken care of while we were away. We came home to a happy, well-cared-for cat and complete peace of mind. We’re so grateful for her help and will definitely be booking with her again. Thank you!”
“Allison was absolutely amazing. She was so communicative and we were completely at ease while leaving our dogs away from home for the first time. She sent photos every day and we didn’t worry about them not one single time. We felt both our dogs were in great hands. She followed instructions very clearly and managed both of our large 70 pound dogs.”
“I can’t say enough good things about this sitter. My dog Kylo (she also has a dog named Kylo lol) absolutely loves coming here, he’s gotten to the point where he recognizes the place as soon as we pull up and gets excited to go inside. She takes such great care of him and handles him really well, and I can always tell he has a fun, comfortable stay. She’s been incredibly reliable and flexible every single time I’ve booked with her, which makes things so much easier for me. Definitely my go-to sitter, and I’d recommend her to anyone who wants their dog in caring, trustworthy hands.”

“Carol and her family were wonderful! She took really good care of my dog. This was a new venture for us and I'm glad it was a great experience. I almost want to keep her a secret 😂. I do plan to use her again.”
“I would absolutely recommend Jennifer to anyone. We requested her to watch our pup on short notice and she was still able to accommodate us. She sent us loads of videos and took excellent care of our dog. She has a great backyard space for the dogs to run and play. Our girl came home so tired from all the playing. Will book with her again!”

Monica is awesome! She sent daily photos and updates!!! I could tell by my dog’s GPS that she actually got more exercise with Monica than she does with me! If you show up in Destin with your dog and realize you can’t take them to the beach, please please please reach out to Monica!!! She will take care of your fur baby with as much love as you do 🥰
Megan was so amazing! We booked a trip last minute and our Airbnb didn’t allow dogs so Willie stayed with Megan and her son. She responded so quickly to every message, kept us updated, and most importantly Willie had such a good time!! Would definitely book again.
Julie is absolutely amazing. She took the time to take care of our two doggos, and she was very patient with our new adopted pup Coco. She made sure that Coco was comfortable with another dog that was staying with her by coordinating with the other dog’s owner to allow us to visit and meet. It was a great match and our two dogs had an amazing time and came back tired, happy, and clean!

Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
