Pet Boarding Florence

About: Hello, I have been an animal lover and caregiver my entire adult life. I will treat your babies like my own, and make sure they stay happy and active. Available to sit in my home or yours. I have a fenced in yard and dog friends to play with! Will travel to walk and take on adventures. I am a responsible 36 year old woman who would love to help take care of your furry friends! I am calm and patient, dogs like me and feel comfortable around me right away. I am strong and can handle walking large dogs. I also love all kinds of animals and would be willing to help with animals of all kinds. Thank you for reading and I hope to hear from you soon! Alyssa I am fully available all summer. Then nights and weekends during the school year, as I am a teacher. I have 3 dogs that love other animals. I take many pictures and give lots of pets. I make sure all animals are well fed and cared for. At my home I have a fenced in yard.

About: I grew up with a Golden Doodle, and I’ve been constantly surrounded by dogs and other animals since I was young. If my friends or my moms friends need a dog sitter, I’m the guy they call. I work from 7am to about 3pm, as long as your animal friend has a crate and can go about 8 hours by themselves then I’m also your guy! I live in an area where giving walks and giving time outside are easily accessible, my living space not being too big or too small, and having a childhood dog I’m very familiar with the comings and goings of when animals need to eat and go to the bathroom. I don’t have a fenced backyard but the dog will never be outside without me or a leash, my living space is nicely sized so I’ll always be able to keep track of the dog. I also don’t have many if any breakable items.

“Donna was amazing! We had a family emergency come up and needed a pet sitter last minute and Donna was super responsive and incredibly helpful. She is the sweetest person and loved on my dog while he was with her for a week. She made Ollie feel right at home and he had a fantastic week relaxing at her place. Ollie is starting to get a little bit older, so this quiet and relaxed stay was perfect for him. I would absolutely book with Donna again in the future and highly recommend her!”

“Excellent communication from start to finish! I had the best experience from the initial meet and greet through the entire stay. Luna was in the best hands, and I loved receiving regular updates and pictures. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing she was so well cared for. I highly recommend Cindy ❤️”

About: Loving, Personalized Care for Your Small Dog 🐾 I know how important it is to feel comfortable and confident when you leave your beloved dog with someone else. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and comfortable home away from home where your small dog can feel relaxed, happy, and cared for. I especially enjoy caring for small dogs and love giving them plenty of attention, affection, playtime, and companionship. Rather than feeling like they’re staying in a kennel, your pup will be treated like part of the family. I’m happy to follow your dog’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, and any special instructions you provide. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can enjoy your time away knowing your little one is doing well. I understand that every dog has their own personality and comfort level, so I take the time to get to know each pup and make their stay as comfortable as possible. Small dogs are my specialty, and I’d love to give your pup a cozy, loving home while you’re away! 🐶❤️ Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I enjoy making sure dogs receive plenty of attention, companionship, and care throughout the day. I’m able to build my schedule around the needs of the dogs staying with me, including regular feeding times, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and lots of affection. I like to keep a calm, comfortable home environment where small dogs can settle into a routine that feels familiar. I’ll follow each pet parent’s instructions and maintain their normal schedule as closely as possible. Throughout the day, I make time for one-on-one attention, play, cuddles, and potty breaks. I also enjoy sending pet parents updates and photos so they know how their dog is doing while they’re away. My goal is for every dog to feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for while staying in my home. 🐾❤️ I want every pet staying in my home to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for just as they would in their own home. I provide a calm, clean, and welcoming environment where small dogs can relax and feel like part of the family. Safety is always my priority. I keep a close eye on pets throughout their stay, make sure they have a secure space to rest and play, and follow each pet parent’s instructions regarding feeding, medications, routines, and special needs. I also understand that being away from home can be stressful for both pets and their owners. I take the time to build trust with each dog and give them plenty of affection, attention, and reassurance. I’m happy to keep pet parents updated with photos and messages so they can feel confident that their pup is happy and doing well. My goal is simple: to provide a safe, loving, and comfortable home away from home where every small dog is treated with patience, kindness, and plenty of love. 🐾❤️

“We were very happy with Jaclyn taking care of our dog for a few days. Our dog Bailey is a shelter dog and has some issues staying with others. Jaclyn has a wonderful home and kennel and made Bailey very comfortable for her stay. We were very pleased. Anton and Liz P”

“I can't say enough nice things about Renee! This was my first time leaving Billie with a sitter and she made it such an awesome experience. She asked great questions to get to know Billie's needs and preferences and sent cute updates, even! What a huge difference from a kennel. Billie would be stressed and upset and wanted to be held when I would take her there, but when I picked up Billie from Renee's she seemed really happy!! Renee is a lovely person and a great sitter!”

About: I’ve been surrounded by dogs my entire life, growing up with them and now caring for my own sweet 13-year-old pup! Having a senior dog has given me an even deeper appreciation for the patience, attention, and love that pets need at every stage of life. I understand that every dog has its own personality, routine, and needs. Whether it’s going for walks, enjoying playtime, or simply providing companionship and cuddles, I treat every dog as if they were my own. As a lifelong dog lover and pet parent, I know how important it is to feel confident that your furry family member is in good hands. My goal is to provide a loving, safe, and comfortable experience while giving you peace of mind when you’re away! I work a hybrid schedule, which allows me to have flexibility throughout the week to accommodate your pet’s needs. I have the ability to adjust my schedule for walks, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of love and attention. I understand how important consistency and routine are for pets, and I’m happy to work with you to ensure your furry family member receives the care and companionship they deserve. My flexible schedule allows me to provide reliable, attentive care while balancing my professional responsibilities! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities! I have a spacious home with a large lawn, perfect for outdoor playtime and exercise. We live in a quiet neighborhood with very little traffic, offering a peaceful environment. As a lifelong dog lover and owner of a 13-year-old pup, I understand the importance of providing a safe, loving home where every pet feels like part of the family!

“Eliana communicated very efficiently with me before and during the booking. She sent me photos throughout my dog’s stay at her house and she gave me updates daily. Her space was very clean and safe. I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with her.”

About: Pet owner, pet lover! I have been sitting for friends and family since I was a teen. I also grew up around large dogs. I adopted a staffy mix in 2014 and we had 9 great years together before she passed. I’m not ready to adopt again, so until then, I’d like to help others. I’ve also had a few cats in the past and currently have 2! They are both tolerant of dogs and if they are uncomfortable, they will typically leave the room. My friends will bring their dogs when they visit me and my cats do well. I don’t have a yard per se but there is a lot of open space for frequent walks/potty breaks. My apartment complex is very pet-friendly. I am on the 2nd floor, so there are 2 sets of steps that may make it hard for older dogs. I often do overnights and stay with pets in their own home to maximize their comfort and keep their routines intact. I’m flexible based on your individual needs. One of my interests is in animal behavior. I have read many books (my favorites are from Patricia B. McConnell) My philosophy is we are training everyday. Consistency is important to me and for them, so I will ask many questions during the meet and greet stage to understand their needs and know how to best support you both. I look forward to meeting you both! My schedule is determined by the pets in my care and their schedules. I am currently freelance with WFH tasks and gig work and schedule my other jobs around my pet care calendar. I live in a pet-friendly apartment complex with lots of open space to walk. With me, your pup will have 24/7 one-on-one attention. They are allowed on the furniture and will always be supervised. I also have room to set up a crate if they are crate-trained but most of the time they will play and hangout where I am. I have 2 cats that do well with dogs. The cat food is raised off the floor and litter boxes are located in the main living space and are scooped immediately.

“Kristina was so patient and sweet with Olive, who can be nervous and shy. By day 2, Kristina was sending us pictures of Olive belly up and happily napping next to Kristina on the couch and Olive completely made herself at home. Olive’s stay overlapped with a major heatwave, and Kristina made sure to get Olive out early in the AM for a nice walk each morning before it got too hot. I would definitely recommend Kristina for attentive and loving care for your pet!”

About: I have taken care of pets my whole life so I can take care of puppies to elderly dogs. Most dogs love me and want to come play and pet. I also have a 2.5yr old son who absolutely LOVES dogs. We are happy to take care of dogs with special needs or is on mediations. We had a cat that just recently passed away and she would have been 19yrs old this year. She had asthma and we had to give her an inhaler 2x a day for 10 years. Happy to help your family with any special needs. We will love them like our own while you are away. I currently run my own business and work from home. I have a very flexible schedule so I can fairly easily adopt to your needs and help out wherever I can. I have a nice size home so your dog will have lots of free range all over the house. I live in a very pet friendly community so there are a ton of dogs around and a nice place to go walking the dog.
