“Morgan took care of our senior Shiba Inu while we were away for a few days. She sent pictures daily and provided updates on how Hachi was doing each day. She was very communicative and proactive with her updates and we felt very comfortable and assured that our dog was safe and having fun with her and her family. I highly recommend Morgan. She was very attentive and was very accommodating with our dog and his special needs especially during the July 4th holiday where he had a lot of anxiety from fireworks and thunderstorms. Thank you for taking great care of our Hachi! We will definitely be a repeat customer!”


“Tanya was an amazing dog sitter and welcomed our Charlie into her home and treated her like part of the family! I felt such peace leaving her there, and enjoyed all the pictures and updates while we were gone! When I picked Charlie up, she looked absolutely happy and beautiful, as Tanya had brushed her out and treated her with such love and care. We will definitely book with Tanya again! Thank you very much!”


“Linda was very patient with Monty and she provided a loving space for our dogs to feel at home. Once he settled down he was attached to Linda's side. Linda sent several photos and it was nice to see our dogs and Linda’s dog all getting along and clearly feeling at home. Thank you for taking care of our dogs and the assurance that they were well cared for allowed us to truly enjoy our vacation.”


“I can tell Jake was very happy with Jessica and Melissa. I was sent pictures everyday and he came home nice and tired. Thank you Jessica and Melissa.”


“Hans had a great time with their family. We appreciated the pictures and info on how he was doing. Always nice to see Hans getting snuggles in while we are away. Their other dog was a sweetie and got along with Hans perfectly. We will definitely book again when we have to head out of town next time.”


“Lori and Jim has been an absolute gem when it comes to taking care of my fur baby! From the initial meet-and-greet, it was clear that they genuinely love animals and know how to care for them. They were punctual, communicative, and sent daily updates with photos, which gave me such peace of mind while I was away. My pet adored them- Zoey looked so happy and relaxed when I went to pick her up. Highly recommend Lori & Jim to anyone for a reliable and loving care for their pets!”


“Joan made us feel so at ease while watching our beagle. She always sent pictures and updates and treats her like one of her own. We are so glad we found Joan!”


“As always, Amber is the BEST dog sitter. I feel so lucky to have found her. I've never felt more comfortable leaving my dog with another person than I have with her. My dog genuinely loves Amber and her family and gets SO excited when I drop her off!”


“Catalina is the best!! She keeps us constantly updated, and her wonderful co-host Clifford is Maverick's new best friend in Florida. Highly recommend her services! :)”



“Thelma and Gary were absolutely wonderful with my dog. It was an excellent experience having such a great couple care for my pet and give her the love she needed while I was gone. Their home is beautiful and comfortable and very pet friendly. I will definitely use them again.”


“Kym took care of Frankie including assisting with his surgery recovery (neutralizing, hernia and removal of a bad toenail) and kept us up to date on how he was doing. And allowed us to pick him up late. This was our first use of a dog sitter, so have no way of comparing with others. But we are happy we already have another time booked with her.”


“Absolutely fantastic sitter. Her and her family took amazing care of my girls. She kept me updated daily and even sent me pictures of all the adventures they had. My dogs are my only family and finding someone to care for them in my absence is very stressful. Elisa took all the stress away and showed my girls all the love I would have. Would 1000% recommend to anyone that is looking for a loving home for their fur babies. Thank you Elisa! I will be booking again soon”


“Roxie loves staying with Ranae and her husband. She runs in to see them as if she is right at home. They are very friendly and communicative throughout. Makes me happy to see Roxie so happy.”


“Nicole took very good care of our boy. She even took him to the dog park to play and roam with other dogs. She sent us pictures of Milo to ensure we were at ease during our vacation. I recommend Nicole and will board again in the future. Thanks, Nicole!”


“sending a lot of photos as requested. very much in detail and always looking over yoki. good thing that she has a dog too so my high energy pup has a playmate.”


“Absolutely wonderful ! She is one of the sweetest people I’ve ever met, kept me updated daily with photos and text messages. My 2 cats came home healthy and happy! I will 100% be calling her back to watch my girls. She is is in a great location bar downtown Bradenton and close to palmetto. Great space for my cats to play and lounge around at her home and great prices! I couldn’t have asked for anything better! She even let me drop off and pick up during late hours!”


“KK was absolutely amazing!!! She provided updates and photos every day and helped us feel so at ease being away from our sweet dog. Her home was beautiful and so pet friendly, and she was the perfect fit for us! I have already sent her to some friends as a recommendation and will be using her again! Goldie loved her stay at KK’s! 🤍”


“I took my dog for a meet and greet with Kevin before he stayed there and he loved it! Kevin's two dogs are fun to play with and the backyard is like their own dog park. Steve (dog) had the best sleep over and was very tired when I picked him up! Going back again in a couple of weeks!”


“Our dog Murphy just spent 9 days in the warm and loving home of Lizbeth and Earl. Lizbeth was very thorough in finding out about Murphy's schedule, habits, likes and dislikes so that she could provide the best care possible. Each day we received an update, along with either a picture or video. Murphy also loved playing with their two dogs, Bella and Zoe. We will definitely be using Lizbeth and Earl again!”


“Jennifer took care of my baby Blue, a miniature Australian Shepherd. She did an amazing job. She sent me photos while I was away on a week trip. I highly recommend. She is a dog whisperer.”
