“Emma was incredible. Emma was able to do a drop in SUPER last minute - got to my house incredibly fast and did an amazing job! Highly highly recommend and we will be using Emma in the future!!”


About: I grew up taking care of puppies and dogs of all types. I tend to gravitate in any situation towards animals first. While I have no formal training in dog training, I have learned quite a bit throughout my years. My schedule sometimes varies through out the week but it is 99% night shifts, so 3pm until about midnight at the latest. I am available anytime during the day. I live alone with just my 4 year old cat in a decently sized 1 bedroom apartment. I am on the second floor with no elevator. I will be very respectful to your home and your pets, just as I expect someone to be in my home. I pay attention to details and will make sure to take great care of your fur babies.
“Bethany was so great with my babies! She went above and beyond taking care of them and is very communicative. She provided very thorough updates after every check in. Highly recommend booking her if you need a great sitter!”

“Alina is reliable and she is great with Pablo. She treats him like family and cares for him exceptionally. She communicates promptly and openly. She’s a trusted sitter and someone I know I can count on to care for my baby.”

“AJ was very kind to accommodate a same day request. He is communicative, punctual, and took the time to write a thorough report card with lots of pictures. Thank you for taking such great care of our pup!”

“Very organized and constantly kept me updated and made me feel like my old girl was well taken care of and happy while I was away! Will definitely be using again and can definitely recommend for anyone looking for someone to take care of their fur-baby”

“We have had many people take great care of our boys (two cats), but Katie went above and beyond with her communication and ability to connect with them during a stressful time (we just relocated). Highly recommend Katie and won’t hesitate to rebook!”

About: I’ve always been a huge animal lover and have experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages and personalities, including puppies, senior dogs, anxious pets, dogs that need medication, and dogs with seizure disorders. I also have a dog child that is a mini Goldendoodle, Clover, so I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pet. I’ll treat your pets like my own and make sure they get lots of love, attention, and care while you’re away. I work from home while going to school full time, so I have a pretty flexible schedule that lets me give pets lots of attention throughout the day. Whether it’s potty breaks, walks, playtime, medication, or just keeping them company, I’m happy to stick to their routine. I truly enjoy caring for animals, and my goal is to make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I believe pets do best when they can stick to their normal routine. Whether I’m caring for them in my home or yours, I’ll follow your instructions closely, from feeding and walks to medications, crate time, playtime, and any other preferences you have to help them feel comfortable and at home.
“Johnny was recommended to us by friends and was great and easy to work with. Our puppy loved hanging out with him on her drop in. We will definitely be using Johnny again soon.”

“Summer was great! She followed all the instructions we left for her and was a great friend to our dog and cat. I felt very comfortable leaving them in her care while we were out of town!”

“Very nice and sent good updates on my fur babies while I was away. I have a super sassy cat that hates everyone who actually warmed up to her, so highly recommended for cats :) Will book again in the future”

“Simply the best pet sitter in Tampa. We are moving out of state and I wish I could take Ali with us. My cat and I both love and trust her. My cat is more excited to see Ali than she is to see me! I cannot recommend her enough. Thank you Ali for all the visits, play time and love. PK has never been in better hands than when she is with you!”

“Amanda was amazing! She gave our dog such good care and sent us plenty of photos and updates on everything they did. She went above and beyond taking our dog for walks and letting her get lots of sniffs out and about!”

“Lliana was absolutely amazing. She communicated constantly and took great care of our dog. She reassured us and made sure our dog was okay even when he was scared of the fireworks outside. 100% recommend.”


“This was my first time leaving my cat alone so I was a bit nervous. Once I met Amanda I knew he was in good hands. She did a great job keeping him happy in my absence. I’ll definitely book with her next time I go away.”


“Bekah was amazing watching my two cats while I was away for a week. She spent so much time with them and sent lots of great updates and made me feel so comfortable knowing they were being taken great care of while I was away. Thank you!!!”

“Rachel was great! Good communication as this was my first time using the app. She sent pictures of Emma and gave an update, and from the pictures she had sent, Emma really enjoyed her time with Rachel!”

If you love your pets.. BOOK WITH KATIE! She is 5 stars for a reason! I was so worried about leaving my cat for a few days but Katie made both me and my cat feel the most comfortable. Katie is extremely thorough with her level of attention and care, super friendly, and went above and beyond with caring for my house as well. My cats toys got lost in our move, and she even offered to bring her own. I can’t say enough good things!
Isabel was amazing. She came over to meet my cats before I left and they were instantly in love with her, which is not their norm. Usually, my older cat is skittish and standoffish, but he loved her immediately. She took such amazing care of them, cleaning up messes, and playing with them. I came home to no anxiety from my cats, which is super rare. 11/10. My partner and I are going to call her every time we leave town.

Meghan was absolutely wonderful with Livy. Before her scheduled visits, she took the time to come by for a meet-and-greet and carefully learn Livy's routine. She really went above and beyond to make sure she understood Livy's needs and that everything would be as comfortable as possible. Unfortunately, Livy decided she wasn't particularly interested in making a new friend—we recently moved and she is out of character. Meghan handled it with so much patience, kindness, and good humor. She even joked that Livy reminded her of Miranda Priestly from The Devil Wears Prada, which honestly couldn't have been more accurate and gave us all a good laugh. Regardless of Livy's icy demeanor Meghan knows that she has modeled for brands so she made us a photo of Livy on a magazine cover!!! It was included with the most beautiful thank you note; please do not thank me; THANK YOU for everything that you did! Throughout the entire experience, Meghan was thoughtful, communicative, and clearly cared about providing the best possible care. Even if your pet is a little aloof or has a big personality like ours, you can trust that Meghan will treat them with patience and compassion. We're so grateful for everything she did and wouldn't hesitate to recommend her! I am not sure how 'Miranda Priestly' feels but I sure hope that Meghan will return!!!

I can’t even begin to express how amazing Joyce is! We’ve trusted her with our dogs twice now; first in January 2025 for my wedding and again in July 2026 for vaycay and I would absolutely book her again! We have four dogs: a Pomeranian, two Black Labs, and a Pit Bull. Three of them are over 50 pounds, so leaving them with anyone can be nerve wracking. I was especially worried they wouldn’t remember her after so much time had passed, but the second they saw Joyce, they were beyond excited! It was obvious they remembered and loved her. One of my favorite things about Joyce is that I never have to wonder how my babies are doing. She sends videos, pictures, and updates throughout our trip, which gives me so much peace of mind. While I’m enjoying my vacation, I get to see my dogs having the best time running around, playing fetch, and getting so much love and attention. She’s also incredibly knowledgeable about dog health. One of my dogs constantly licks his paw until it creates a wound, and Joyce shared some natural remedies for my poor guy. If you’re looking for someone who will love your pets like they’re her own, keep you updated, and genuinely care about their well being, Joyce is the one. We absolutely adore her, and so do our dogs!
