Good communication, kept track of her bathroom breaks and even let her play for a little in our community dog park to get energy out. She helped care for my dog even when it was such a last minute request!

Natalie was amazing with my dog Ralo! He was so happy to see her, and she gave him so much love and attention during their visit. She stayed the full hour, sent plenty of updates, and even took him for a walk. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in great hands. Highly recommend — I’ll definitely be booking her again!

Sophia is amazing!! She did a wonderful job taking care of my cat Oreo. Oreo is a loving cat also and looked forward to Sophia’s daily visits. He would start meowing before she could even open the door. She cleaned up his litter that he tracked through the house and ensured he got a full 30 minutes of playtime. She also checked that he had fresh water daily. I would definitely use her again if I’m out of town.

About: Caring for pets has always been one of my greatest joys. I love spending time with animals, whether it's a leisurely stroll around the block, playing fetch at the park, or giving them plenty of pets/belly rubs at home. Growing up with dogs, and gaining experience with a variety of dogs (&cats!) since then, has made me confident and attentive in providing personalized care. I've also had the pleasure of regularly volunteering at the Humane Society of Tampa Bay where I walk, play, and give lots of love to dogs in need. From energetic pups to more relaxed seniors, I've gotten to know the different needs and personalities of many dogs. With me, your pet is guaranteed to be treated like family! I have a flexible schedule and work different hours each day, which allows me to accommodate pets with varying needs. I am able to provide care for your pet before work or during the late afternoons and evenings once I'm off. I also am off on Friday's which gives me extra availability to spend with your pet. I'm happy to work around your pet's needs and adjust to a schedule that works for you. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priority. I ensure a secure environment at all times, whether at home or during walks, and follow any specific instructions you provide for your pet's care. I'm a responsible and trustworthy sitter, and I always treat each pet as if they were my own. You can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in caring and capable hands.

About: My husband and I are avid pet lovers. I grew up volunteering and working with dogs and horses as a teenager. I worked as a ranch hand for half of a year, then transitioned to a position as a vet tech. I worked as a vet tech for dogs and cats for 3 years and decided to branch out into pet care services over the past two years. We have been able to help out numerous dogs, cats, fish, birds, reptiles, and other animals. We are insured and bonded through the Pet Sitter Association. I have experience with special needs dogs and administering medication. Between my spouse and I, we are typically always home and can adjust our schedule as needed to fit potty breaks or medication.

About: I've been an avid pet lover for as long as I can remember. I attended UNC-Chapel Hill and earned my veterinarian medical technician degree. I specialize in senior dogs needing special care, food and medication. I'm known for my behavior training of difficult puppies and dogs. I can administer all medications oral, topical as well as injections. Pet sitting is my full time job. My daily and weekly routines revolves around the dogs in my care. I never leave them alone more than 2hrs at a time and I only do that for doctors appointments. My dog Porkchop is a medical service animal and goes everywhere I go, except when I sit at someone else's house. I have a large fenced in backyard and I have a small service dog to keep your baby company. Your babies will be allowed on the furniture and the bed unless you don't want them too. I don't use kennels unless you want me to and you will have to provide the kennel. Your babies will have full access to my entire house. If I sit in your home I go by all of your rules for your baby. On drop in visits I will feed your pet and walk them as well as give plenty of love and play time. For walking visits I will give your baby a twenty minute walk and give them fresh water and a treat or two if they are allowed to have them.

About: I have had dogs and cats since I was 3 and have been both dog and cat sitter in the past. I have cats personally but looking forward for long walks with puppies when I can! I work remote and have a very flexible schedule. I can take pets for walks or just come spend quality time with your loved one I live in an apartment with cats of my own, so I will not be able to board pets. I am able to go check in as much as needed

I have also taken courses such as animal and veterinary science. I can read pets body language accurately, administer medication properly and safely, bathe pets, and ensure they have a happy and safe time in my care. I treat every pet as if they were my own, and form a relationship of love and trust for your fur babies. I am also experienced with exotic animal care such as birds, pigs, fish, etc. I would love to take care of your pets and give you the peace of mind knowing they are safe and happy while you are away! I am doing pet sitting/walking full time and have my schedule open from Monday to Friday. I am open to the occasional weekend if my schedule allows for it. I will follow any instructions you leave for me to the letter. I will treat your home with respect and make sure your pet stays comfortable and safe. Whether you crate train or let your babies free roam, I will ensure they are taken care of while you are away.

I decided to book with Amanda because a neighbor recommended her, and I could not have been happier with her services. Communication was prompt, lots of pics, and I don’t even think my cats missed me ??

Sophia has cat sat for me twice now, and she’s been wonderful both times. She is very communicative, attentive, and clearly cares a lot about the animals she watches. She took great care of my cats, followed their specific food needs carefully, and made sure to spend time playing with them as well. I always felt updated and reassured while I was away. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring cat sitter!
