“Rocky loved playing and snuggling with Myla and Joyce was in constant communication sending me updates as this was Rocky’s first time with a dog sitter!!”


“Vely was wonderful !!! we are from out of town and needed a sitter for our Pit/Lab 90lb baby for the day while we attended an event in the area. Packer is a bit nervous in new situations and Vely and her family welcomed Packer and made him feel at home. Astrid was Packer's emotional support buddy and she made sure Packer was comfortable. We received several pictures through out the day showing that Packer was settled in just fine. I highly recommend Vely and won't hesitate to call on her again the next time we're in the area. Thank you very much for welcoming Packer into your home.”


About: BEST CARE ANYWHERE! I have over 50 years professional experience caring for dogs, I am now retired. I have worked in the boarding, grooming, training and vet tech fields. My home is calm and quiet, nervous dogs do great with me. My back yard is fully fenced; my back door opens into that backyard. Customized meals for every dog. Home and dog areas cleaned daily and sanitized weekly. 1. YOUR DOG MUST BE UP TO DATE WITH VACCINES! ALSO MUST HAVE A CURRENT BORDETELLA VACCINE! 2. YOUR DOG MUST BE ON A FLEA PROTECTOR! 3. YOUR DOG MUST BE FRIENDLY WITH OTHER DOGS and be 25 pounds or less! 4. NO BULLY BREEDS I am retired and need to feel I am contributing to society in some small way. I love animals and they love me, so this is a good fit for me. I can care for dogs, cats, birds, horses, cattle, goats, chickens, rabbits, snakes, reptiles, raccoons and some small wildlife (depending on their needs) in their home or mine!

“Briana was amazing with Myla! I got updates and pictures, she even went out her way and clipped Myla’s nails. She responded to my booking within a few minutes of my booking (my booking was for the next day) she’s a lifesaver!”


“Cyd was wonderful with KeiKi. We could have asked for someone better. Cyd communicated with us quickly and did a incredible job watching our baby.”


About: I’ve been a dog lover for as long as I can remember! I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs of all sizes and personalities, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. I’ve also spent time volunteering at dog shelters, which has helped me understand and connect even more deeply with our furry best friends. Whether your pup is full of energy and loves playtime, or prefers snuggles and a calm walk, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I treat every dog like they’re my own—with patience, kindness, and lots of belly rubs! I’m reliable, gentle, and truly passionate about what I do. I know how much dogs mean to their families, and I’ll care for yours with all the love and attention they deserve. Can’t wait to meet you and your furry best friend! 🐶💖 Right now I’m not working, and I study online from home—so I’m pretty much always around! That means I have tons of time and flexibility to care for pets whenever needed. Taking care of animals is something I truly enjoy, so it fits perfectly into my daily routine. I have three dogs of my own—two super friendly Shih Tzus and one sweet Soft Coated Wheaten Terrier. They love meeting new furry friends and are great at keeping other dogs company! But if your pup prefers their own space, no worries—I can easily keep them separated to make sure everyone feels safe and comfortable. I don’t crate dogs unless it’s requested by the owner. I’m happy to follow your pup’s usual routine, whether that means long walks, playtime, trips to the park, or just some relaxing cuddle time. My home is full of love, and your fur baby will be treated like part of the family!

“Kyli was very accommodating to my VERY last minute and late evening request. Would definitely trust her with my little Bella again. She was very friendly and kept my baby safe and cozy.”


“Ruverlyn is a really nice, capable, and accommodating doggy daycare provider. We appreciated the many sweet things she did to help us & make our puppy comfortable in her home.”

About: We will be the next best thing to home while you are away. My husband and I have had dogs our whole lives and believe our house is not complete without a furry companion around. I am available full time to care for your dog. and will care for them like they are my own. I was a Rover provider in Arizona many years ago, but now we have made our home in Lakeland Florida, and are once again opening our home to care for dogs through Rover. I am retired from the healthcare field after 30 years and comfortable giving medications, or other medical needs your pet may have. We have a large fenced in back yard, but we also go on daily walks, play ball, or provide a wading pool to keep cool if you dog enjoys water. I am also an excellent dog bather and I am willing to provide this service during your stay as well. Between my husband and I, we are home all the time and available to care for your pet 24/7. We have a dog of our own, so caring for a dog is just a normal part of our daily routine. We have a large fully fenced yard, and our own friendly dog to help keep your dog company. Your dog is always allowed to be in the house as much as they like (especially when it is hot out). We do have a large create if you prefer that your dog be created during certain times.

“Thank you for the awesome last minute booking. I really appreciate your understanding. She's a dog mom and it shows!”


“Jose was great. We did the daycare option for our elderly fur baby. He ensured that she was in a space where she would be comfortable. Jose took her for walks and sent pictures and videos of her. Also, Jose communicated any changes in the stay. I appreciated that he alerted me to 2 dogs that would be joining that evening in advance of our arrival. I’m always nervous to leave my baby with someone new but Jose is the exactly the type of person I hope for when I do.”

About: As a Dog Parent, former SPCA Volunteer, and someone who has spent a lot of time away from home, I know how important it is to have someone that you can actually trust with not only your pets but your home too! As a former close protection agent to some of our nations top Diplomats around the world, allow me to be the one that cares for and protects your greatest assets; Your Animals.

I have a big fenced in backyard with a pool that your dog is welcome to play in and plenty of yard space for them to run around. Extra measures can be taken for nervous parents whose dogs who are escape artists; such as fitting them with a GPS collar during their stay. Would prefer that your dog was friendly with other dogs as I have two elderly dogs of my own who are kind and playful.

10. Shelisha F.
“Shelisha is a caring and compassionate person towards people and pets. She has this ability to connect with animals that is truly amazing and endearing. They seem to establish a connection with her almost instantly. I think it has to do with how sensitive towards her and the animal's emotions she is and animals are able to pick up on that. Shelisha has been a great care giver to many pets in the past and will continue to deliver this with a positive frame of mind.”

When we go on vacation she stays at our house and we can always count of the both our dogs and our home being well cared for. We have also had her do drop by visits just to check on the doggos and make sure they get plenty of potty breaks and play. We wouldn’t want to use anyone else!”
