“Evelyn was great! She was able to accommodate our pups on short notice and did a fantastic job. I appreciated the regular updates/photos and questions she had. Highly recommend!”
“Briana is wonderful! We have a senior dog who needs help getting up and a little dog who gets scared. She handled a rough situation really well, doing everything she could to make them feel comfortable and loved. She kept us updated on how they were doing and problem solved extremely well. We really appreciate her helping us with our high maintenance pups!”
“Nicole is amazing. Our dog loved her right away and she is a very sensitive doggy. It is a great feeling knowing that someone is truly caring for your pets when you’re away from home. Thank you Nicole!”
“Sonja was amazing! She was available last minute on a holiday weekend and did great with making me feel comfortable (it was my first time using this service). She also took time to let my cautious dog warm up, my pets were well taken care of! Will definitely recommend her and be using her again! :)”
“cannot say enough good things about [Dog Sitter’s Name]. From the very beginning, communication was clear, prompt, and friendly, which instantly gave me peace of mind. [He/She/They] took the time to understand my dog’s routine, personality, and little quirks, and it really showed in the care provided. Throughout the stay, I received regular updates and photos, and it was obvious that my dog was happy, comfortable, and well-loved. When I came home, everything was spotless, and my pup was relaxed and content (a true sign of great care!). It’s not easy to trust someone with your furry family member, but Jewell exceeded all expectations. Reliable, caring, and professional — I would recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter who treats your dog like their own.”
“I set up the appointment with Erin as an opportunity to meet and have an initial interaction. She immediately was focused on building a connection with my Bentley and by playing and interacting was already picking up on nuances of Bentley and showed a genuine interest and affection. I wouldn't hesitate to have Erin spend extended time with Bentley knowing he would be well taken care of. Think he's missing her already!”
About: I’ve been working with animals the majority of my adult life. I started out as a volunteer dog walker at the Humane Society and then spent 3 years sitting on the board at the same shelter. I’ve fostered multiple dogs since 2014 and also owned my own doggy daycare and boarding facility from 2016 to 2024. I’m currently working part time so my schedule is very open and flexible. I’m available weekdays, weekends and holidays. With my current schedule it keeps me open to having lots of time to spend with the fur babies to play and snuggle. I have a large fenced yard and tile throughout my house so it is very dog friendly. Walks are available upon request as well as crating if preferred. I’m also happy to sleep with your pets as that’s my preference.
About: Taking care of animals isn’t just a job to me, it’s a hobby! Giving them the proper care they need brings me happiness everyday! I’ve had animals since I was 5 years old, and I’ve learned so much as a I got older. Making sure they get enough exercise by going on long walks, being properly fed ,and giving them love and attention is my main priority! I will love your fur babies like my own and give them the best care they need. I’m currently working in a restaurant, so it depends on whenever you need me and how long you need me to stay, we can work around it! In your home I’ll first make sure your fur baby trusts me and gets used to me as I know I’m a new person in their home. I’ll make sure they’re properly fed with your schedule, bathe them if need be, taking them on walks every couple of hours, and giving them one on one attention. Their safety and health is also one of my main priorities. If I feel in any way they are in danger, I will take any necessary actions to make sure they are safe and well.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats before. But my favorite experience was when I took care of a pregnant cat and got to see her kittens grow up. I’m a Sarasota native and a full time student at the State College of Florida. Growing up surrounded by a variety of animals- dogs, cats, horses, tortoises, and more- I’ve developed a deep love and understanding of pets. I offer reliable, loving care tailored to each animal’s needs, ensuring they receive the exercise, attention, and affection they deserve. I will care for your pets by walking them at their own pace and making sure they have plenty of water during the walk. I will also make sure that your pets follow the rules you have for your house during visits and make sure they are having fun.
About: I love walking dogs, and have two Dobermans of my own. I have a lot of experience walking dogs! (I have owned a lab and six Dobermans) so I feel very comfortable with large breeds. I have a very flexible schedule now! That may change as I find more clients but please contact with what you need and I will get back you you ASAP! I don’t offer boarding right now. Does your dog need a run? I’m very happy to jog/run with your dog. Any questions please feel free to reach out!
About: Hi, I am Nick, I’m a dedicated pet care professional with years of hands-on experience working with dogs and cats of all breeds and temperaments. As a kid, I worked at a Labrador retriever kennel, where I learned the basics of caring for all stages of life from puppy to adult. At home growing up, we trained guide Brittanys who were loyal and playful family dogs and a staple in my life. In college, I adopted a redbone coonhound who familiarized myself with building and maintaining a daily structure and routine as well as tending to his needs for enrichment and stimulation. Over the years, I’ve cared for many different breeds as well as plenty of cats with big personalities. I focus on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while keeping their routines consistent. Whether it’s walking, feeding, or giving medication, I make sure every animal gets the attention and respect they deserve. My goal is simple: treat every pet like family and give owners peace of mind knowing their companions are in good hands. Oh and lots of pictures :) I can accommodate your schedule through out the week and am completely flexible as I work from home with only one part time shift 10-2pm on Saturdays. I keep leashes secure, check gates and doors before walks, and maintain calm energy to help animals feel safe. You’ll receive clear updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. Whether it’s an older cat or a high energy retriever, I prioritize their safety and happiness first.
“Extremely responsive, super organized and most importantly, has already established a great relationship with my special needs dog after only one visit. Not afraid to care for my pooch, provide oral medication or keep my fur baby safe if she should have a seizure while we are away. Highly recommend!”
“Kim was wonderful with our dog and we really appreciated she wanted to come meet everyone prior to agreeing to drop in. Made us feel more at ease with someone we’re not familiar with watching her. But, our dog loved her and she took great care of our dog and kept us in the loop the entire time. Can’t recommend her enough!”
About: I have thoroughly enjoyed taking care of different dogs from a variety of breeds and ages for most of my life. Neighbors, friends, and family know that they can rely on me to care for their fur babies! I have also worked on a farm with a variety of different animals including puppies along with working for a dog walking company. I am a spiritual life coach in the process of expanding my business. I work from home and am my own boss which gives me a lot of flexibility in creating my schedule. I do have time slots when i'm working with clients but besides that I am able to be quite flexible based on your needs. I love to connect with the pets ahead of time to get to know their personality along with meeting the parents and seeing if i'm a good fit. I care for pets in my client’s home and learn what the pets’ essential needs are and what I should do when they demonstrate certain behaviors.
“Grace did a wonderful job with my kitties once again. ❤️ She even gives my cat Tinkerbell her pill twice a day with a pill pocket. Bella is definitely falling in love with her. Thanks so much Grace!”
About: Some things that set me apart from other sitters is my experience with pets, i’ve had dogs my whole life and I love all dogs as my own I work 1-9 Tuesdays and Thursdays so i’m able to walk dogs in the mornings and Mondays and Wednesdays I can walk dogs in the afternoons! I am always conscious of keeping my dog safe in my own home as well as when we’re going on walks I am always aware of his safety
“Tracy is top-notch. She has helped me out a number of times, is very reliable and Ginger loves her. As a cat Dad I am grateful and feel assured when I have to go out of town. Highly recommended and appreciated.”

Maggie was absolutely amazing with our animals! She went above and beyond by sending us daily updates and pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Our pets adore her and always get so excited when she comes to the house! She’s caring, reliable, and clearly loves what she does. I highly recommend Maggie to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and passionate to care for their pets!

Jackie is prompt, incredibly kind, and shows so much natural love to our little border collie Rusty. You can tell she deeply loves animals! Rusty absolutely loved to play, walk and give dog hugs! We also appreciated Jackie making time for us on short notice. We’ll definitely work with Jackie again and highly recommend her!
I booked Gina VERY last minute for two weeks to feed and visit my 3 cats plus my daughter's cat. We did two meets before and after the first, I completely felt great vibes. I have one cat, Oliver that never comes out for anyone other than us. I got a picture of him on I think her second visit! She was wonderful about sending pics and updates. She let them out on my lanai to get some fresh air on her visits. Really can't say enough good things about her. Will definitely be booking her for future visits and house stays next time!
Maggie was absolutely incredible! I was so lucky to have found her. She was so patient with my pups and their anxiety with my being gone. It looked like they warmed right up to her. She communicated daily and took pictures. They had a few accidents and Maggie was so pleasant about everything. I would definitely recommend her.
