“Kiara was amazing. She stayed with Coco the whole day. Coco met her once prior to sitting and when Kiara walked in the door Coco was excited. Dogs are a great judge of character I believe. She was very accommodating and I will definitely use her again.”

“Karrie was wonderful with our fur babies. This was the first time we ever trusted anyone to care for them while we were away. Karrie has eased our thoughts and has given us the confidence we need to use her services again.”

“Sheldon Cooper is a rescue and we did not know how he would do at someone else’s home, but Margherita and her husband made Sheldon Cooper feel like one of the family. The daily pics were great, and we highly recommend Margherita!”

“Tonya was amazing! We had her house sit for a night with our two goldens and everything was amazing, house was in great shape when we got home and she communicated and sent pictures! One of our golden gets medications and she had no problems with it. I will definitely be using her again and would recommend her to anyone”

“We were so happy to have found Taylor. She was responsive and patient with all of our requests and sent photos/updates of our dog while we were away. It was such a weight off of our shoulders to know our dog was taken care of and also loved on. She’s an anxious pup and really just wants comfort and company. We would absolutely book Taylor to care for her again.”

“Zoe did a wonderful job taking care of my scared pup. He surprisingly opened up to her right away. She was very responsive and I'll certainly be booking again.”

“We will have David back again! He kept our fur babies safe, and was so kind to them. My one dog usually hides in the bedroom, and she was out and felt comfortable around him. He sent us pics of our dogs, and made sure our little 4lb dog Sprout was safe. Both of our dogs loved him! David was respectful and kept in constant communication with me from beginning to end. We felt at peace leaving our dogs with him!”

“Jennifer was amazing with our two dogs. She was an absolutely great house guest and looked after everything so well! She sent us frequent updates and pictures of our girls and they had so much fun with her! She even went above and beyond and stayed late and offered to check back in when our flight was delayed. Cannot say enough good things about Jennifer! We will definitely be using her again!”


“I can’t say enough good things about Christina and her family They took such good care of my boy. He was happy and tired when I picked him up. Lots of photos showing big hugs Long walks I wouldn’t hesitate calling them again and leaving Crowley with them You won’t regret it either”

About: My first sitting job was at 14 for the neighbors across the street, during a month long trip. I have been sitting for friends on and off for the last 4 years, dogs and cats. I have a lot of experience with senior cats and cats who are on medication. I am currently an independent contractor, working as a performer. When in a show, weekends would be difficult, and at most a show run lasts 5 weeks. I also bartend at a theater, those shifts are only 4 hours, and are also only during the run of a show. My schedule always remains very flexible. Growing up I was the designated dog walker in the family, he was a very excitable and friendly dog so I have a lot of experience with dogs who pull on their leashes. I also was responsible for baths. I also have some experience with multiple dogs at a time, of all sorts of personalities. I have owned at least one cat since I was 6, I'm the girl who seeks out the cat at the party to hang out.

About: I have grown up with dogs since I was a little girl. I know how to care for them and make them feel properly loved while also being cautious of those who might be more reserved. I am currently home from college, so my schedule is very flexible. I also have a car so I can travel to your dogs at anytime needed. I can housesit any days of the week or weekends as well! While in your home or walking your dog I am able to love on them and give them that extra attention they need while you aren’t home.
“We met Lindsey and right away we had a great feeling about leaving our pets and house with her. She was very thorough and asked a lot of questions to make sure she can give our cats the proper attention. Our one cat is on Prozac and needs his pill daily. She had no problem giving him his medication. Lindsey sent daily pictures and a nice note when she left after staying for a week. I would definitely trust and recommend for any of our pet’s needs.”

About: I'm compassionate, patient, and attentive. I understand canine behavior and needs, communicate effectively, and create a trusting, nurturing environment that makes dogs feel safe and loved in your absence. I am currently working a very flexible job with morning, evenings and weekends off. I can make frequent stops at your residence and spend quality time caring for and loving on your beloved babies. I will take care of your pets the same way I would want someone to take care of my pets in my absence. I am currently setting up a cat playroom and have a .25 acre fully fenced yard. I live a mile away from a dog park and someone is almost always home with your pet.

About: I am a horse caretaker, dog&cat mom, and Lake County kitten foster. Patient with training, anxious, or reactive dogs. Lifelong experience with many animals.🐾 I work from 9-3 in Celebration, FL Monday-Friday but I have a flexible schedule & my boyfriend is remote, just ask for more details. I have a fenced in backyard with a walking trail. Though I have 2 dogs, I would keep them separate for everyone's safety and comfort.
“James was a great dog and house sitter! He sent plenty of pics and communication was excellent. We really felt like he cared about our dogs and gave them lots of attention! Will definitely be booking with him in the future.”

About: I’m a true animal lover who has been volunteering at a local rescue for 2 years, and honestly it’s one of my favorite parts of my week. As a Luxury Sales Director by day, I bring warmth, compassion and attention to detail to every interaction and will ensure your pup feels safe, cared for, and genuinely loved while with me. Working with dogs of all personalities has given me a real understanding of dog behavior, body language, and what makes each pup feel safe, calm and loved. I specialize in smaller dogs and offer a peaceful, calm environment where your pup can truly relax. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and I truly enjoy spending quality time with animals. I’m available for boarding on weekends and weekday evenings, with flexibility depending on your pup’s needs. Whether your dog loves playtime, cuddles, or simply a calm place to relax, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for during their stay. Your pup’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a peaceful home environment, a fenced yard, and experience working with dogs of different personalities through my rescue volunteer work.

“Alexandria was super nice. She came over and met with our 3 weimaraners, who are crazy and full of energy. They took to her immediately;) She stayed at our house, took care of our dogs, house and even cleaned a rug after someone was sick.

Emily was a fantastic sitter for our pups and kitty! She responded quickly, kept us updated during her stay and sent us photos! I could tell my pups were happy, well-loved, and in great hands. I’d absolutely trust Emily again for future pet sitting and I highly recommend her!
