Top rated Golden Glades-The Woods pet sitters

“I cannot recommend Karin enough! From the moment I met her, I instantly felt at ease. She is thorough and obviously has a love for animals. My dog absolutely adores her too! I feel so thankful to have found her!”


“Sharon was so great at communicating and keeping my pup safe and happy while I was away! She provided pictures and videos of him as happy as can be!”


“Erin was an amazing sitter while I was gone, I got the best phots of my cat I have ever seen and got great updates on Kitty. Overall such a nice person and amazing sitter!”


“We needed someone to watch our dog last minute and Alexandra was very accommodating. We had never done drop-in visits before but she made sure we felt comfortable with her coming in to feed and take Beasley on walks while we were gone. Communication was great and Beasley was well taken care of. We will definitely be asking her to watch Beasley again the next time we go out of town😊”


“Kailee is very kind and fast to respond. She went above and beyond for a last minute drop in visit for my cat. I would recommend Kailee for any of your pet care needs!”


“Mary is amazing! She is so good with my cat, who generally hisses and runs away the moment a stranger looks at her funny. Mary was able to win her over and takes care to send me funny stories and updates during her visit which I love love love. I definitely will hire her again!”


“Molly was amazing with our goldendoodle puppy!! She really went above and beyond the job description in her drop ins making sure to play and bond with him and even teach him new tricks. She provided great updates and pictures each time which put us at ease while we were away. We will be contacting her again.”


“Well, Kyleigh did it again. She always sends pics and gives a little report on her visits to Sami. Sami gets stressed whenever we are away and she reacts by doing things that are not very sanitary. Kyleigh is a trooper and comes thru in a big way. Will always be our first contact when we go on trips. Thank you Kyleigh, for being you.”


“Madeline was absolutely wonderful with Albert! She even called me right before entering the house and sweetly told my little guy that “mommy sent her” — such a thoughtful touch that meant a lot. She followed all the instructions perfectly, made sure he had a potty break, refilled his water, and even tried to play with him and offer a treat (even though he wasn’t super interested!). She also sent a cute photo update which was really appreciated. Highly recommend Madeline — would definitely book again!”


“Aimee is fantastic!!! This is the first time I have used Aimee for drop-in visits for our foster dog and I highly recommend her and will be using her again.”


“Shannon was incredible and took wonderful care of our little guy. She sent lots of updates and photos, felt totally comfortable being away for our trip. Also our dog had just had spinal surgery last month, and Shannon was very attentive to his needs and found ways to enrich our little guy while on limited restricted activity”


“Thanks for taking such great care of my pup while I was away! Amber did an outstanding job with helping my pup transition into spending a bit more time on his own and put my mind at ease with great communication!”


“Thank you again Kiana. We are very thankful to have you as a partner in taking care of our cats. We love them AND we appreciate being able to travel again and have that peace of mind that our furry family is in good hands.”



“Our cats loved Ursula. She is a very good in responding to our messages, and she really likes pets. She is also very dependable. We have used the services of Ursula many times and will continue to use them.”


“Brianna kept us informed on a daily basis for our three cats. It was good to see they were in the care of someone who really cares about animals! We will definitely be using her again.”
