“10/10 recommend Alex! I was so nervous trusting someone to watch our 4 cats and 11 month old puppy- we had a few specifications we needed and Alex seemed to meet all of those. After chatting with his stellar deference i was convinced he was exactly what we were hoping for! He checked in regularly by text and photos and asked questions whenever he needed information. I came home to very happy critters and a clean house. Alex at first seemed too good to be true- but he actually IS!”


“Ashley was fantastic with our fur babies. They got lots of love, snuggles and pets. I got pictures along the way which gave me comfort. She’s very responsive to messages. We will definitely hire her again.”


“Linda is patient and kind. Our fur babies love when she visits with them. She brings them treats and toys and showers them with love and gifts. I never have to worry about them when I travel. Thank you Linda!!”


“Stephanie was great! She stayed over with my 3 senior dogs and took such great care of them! We coordinated a “meet and greet” beforehand and I could tell instantly that the dogs loved her. Would definitely recommend!”


“So thankful we found J! She took amazing care of our dog. Mail was brought in, house was clean, and even washed the sheets and made the guest bed! Daily updates and photos were a bonus. Our dog looked so happy on his adventures! Will definitely use again.”


“Katharina was truly wonderful! We received daily updates with great pictures of Rocky going about his daily routine. The house was left clean and tidy, and Rocky was completely himself upon our return. She sincerely cared for him while we were gone. Highly reccommend!”


“I think my cat likes Angie better than me! 😂 I was nervous to drop her off because she usually hides from everyone, but this pet sitter somehow had her snuggling after only two days! Which means my cat was getting a lot of attention and must’ve felt safe. Amazing! So grateful for you Angie!”


“She was so wonderful with my precious pet and she watered my plants. Definitely use her again. Great with my cat. Arrived early and did everything that my cat needed, including playing with him. Fantastic!”


About: I’ve had pets for as long as I can remember! We used to foster sick animals and newborns when I was younger, so we had many dogs and cats come through our house. This in turn resulted in my love for animals to grow immensely, as I wanted to provide as much love as possible to our fosters while they were with us. Currently, I have a two year old Goldendoodle who is my pride and joy. She is pampered and treated like royalty, as she deserves. I also have a nine year old cat that I adore, he is incredibly loving and affectionate. I consider your pets to be just as important as my own, and will treat them as such! I currently work from home for three days out of the week, so I have some flexibility with my schedule. Happy to discuss further with any future clients! Happy to be flexible based on the animals current routine, whether that means letting them out in the yard or taking them for a walk to use the restroom.

About: I was a dog trainer in Michigan and have a lot of experience with animal behavior. I have also watched animals and have a good understanding of animal psychology. I work on a fishing charter so any days I have off I will be available for dog walking. Any nights I do not work the next day I will be available for pet sitting. I am well versed in animal behavior due to past experiences and will be able to ensure your animals safety when watching or walking your dog or cat

About: I’ve grown up with dogs of all sizes, but big dogs have always had a special place in my heart! I currently have a Boston Terrier who loves to cuddle—she’s truly one of my best friends and fits her role as a companion dog perfectly. I’m also a proud cat mom to two amazing cats. One is a rescue we raised from a kitten—he has three legs, is absolutely beautiful, and loves to talk (a lot!). My other cat has been with me since I was a teenager. I raised her from a kitten too, and she’s truly my girl—she even acts like a dog sometimes! My pets mean the world to me, and I treat every animal I meet like one of my own. I know how important our fur babies are, and I’m committed to making them feel safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away. Right now, I have a very flexible schedule and am available most days of the week at any hour. Caring for pets—whether it’s a cat, a dog, or both—easily fits into my daily and weekly routine. All I ask is for a clear list of tasks, including feeding times, portion sizes, walks (for dogs), litter box duties (for cats), and any other specific care instructions. Sharing a few details about your pet’s personality and preferences is optional, but it really helps me understand what they love, what they don’t, and how to make them feel as comfortable and happy as possible while you’re away. I care for animals with love and respect, treating them the way I’d want to be treated. I never force them to do anything they’re uncomfortable with—I know animals communicate through body language, not words, so I pay close attention to their signals. My goal is to make every pet feel safe, understood, and truly cared for. Their comfort and well-being always come first with me.

About: I have been around dogs and cats all my life and currently own two dogs, one being a foster. I have worked as a veterinarian technician and as a marine biologist for the Florida Aquarium, so I have been around a diversity of animals to include exotics. I also volunteer with a rescue organization in Tampa, which moves dogs out of overcrowded shelters and drives them to Florida so they can be put into the foster homes and later adopted. The way I look at your pet is as if he was my pet and would treat him the same. I work early, which allows me to get home around 1 o’clock, so I have the ability to spend a lot of time in the afternoon and evening with the pets. Weekends are relaxed with plenty of walking and trips to the parks. My pets are my family and they have free range of the home so for them to sleep on their beds or on the couch is fine with me. Most nights at least one dog is sleeping in the bed. Well, I do not have a fenced in backyard. I do take them out for walks throughout the afternoon and evening and first thing in the morning as an avid runner I am constantly on the move and the dogs go with me. That also includes trips for pup cups.

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with a soft spot for wagging tails, wet noses, and happy purrs. Whether it’s a long walk, a game of fetch, or quiet cuddle time, I make sure every pet feels safe, loved, and cared for as if they were my own. I know how important trust is when it comes to your furry family, so I always show up with patience, kindness, and a big smile. From energetic pups who need an adventure to senior pets who just want gentle company, I’m here to keep tails wagging and hearts happy. 💛 Comfortable and familiar with senior, special needs, sickly, puppies, disabled, and anxious/aggressive animals. I currently remotely freelance and take online classes, so my schedule is pretty open! Please feel free to ask me questions or make requests. Let’s work something out! I will be unable to care for pets in my own home, because I feel that it is best to keep their routine as normal as possible when theirmom/dad are away! The little things matter to them - like sleeping in their own bed, in a house they know, with their own backyard, go on walks in a neighborhood they are familiar with, etc.

About: I have taken care of all kinds of dogs over my many years. I love dogs more than people I think!! I have administered insulin to our senior schnoodle who needed shots 2x a day. I've assisted our other senior with a walking belt when she could no longer navigate independently. I've trained puppies, and I've loved many. Our marriage has been filled with corgis, schnoodles, and now morkies. I will take good care of your babies and make sure they are safe and happy. I am retired, so I have a lot of free time. I can work whatever schedule your pets and you require. I also have a great support system in my home for my own pets. I have a fenced in yard and a doggie door that allows your dog to go in and out as needed. My dogs have a lot of freedom in our home, they climb on the couch or bed, and sleep under the buffet. They are spoiled with fancy foods and treats. In your home, it's your rules, so I'll make sure to take the same care of your pet as you do.

About: I have been pet sitting since I was 12 years old for family and family friends. I have my own fur babies an English Bulldog named Chief and a pit bull mix named Chewy that we rescued. I have developed more knowledge of pet allergies, sensitivities, and pet anxiety since having them. Animals hold a special place in my heart and I have always loved being around them. I’m currently working full time weekdays. I am open to house-sitting on the weekends. Checking in on your fur babies during the weekdays after work. I can not board any animals due to having my own fur babies, but am more than willing to take care of them at your home.

“Karen was absolutely amazing. She was flexible, communicative, accommodating, compassionate, and all around a pleasure to have in our home to watch our five pets. I was able to be at ease more than I’ve ever been with anyone else. I highly recommend Karen and will definitely be using her again.”


“Jenny was great with my dog Buster! She stayed overnight, fed, walked him and gave him plenty of care and love. In addition she collected the mail and put trash out! She was great with Buster who can be stand offish. Thank you Jenny!”


About: I’ve had dogs all my life and cats since the age of for most of my life. I love them all. I feed the stray cats in the neighborhood and have three rescue dogs of my own. I would love to play and take care of your animals. This would not be considered a job to me as much as I love animals. I truly love them and I feel so bad for the ones that have handicaps and are neglected and abused especially. I have much compassion and know that they all deserve love just like humans. If you give me the chance to take care of your pet you won’t be disappointed. I’ve been told many times I missed my calling and should’ve been a vet but i cant handle seeing animals in pain.

Paige Z.
“Paige would make a great choice for your pet sitting needs! She is very attentive and caring to all types of pets, including my dog, birds, and fishies. My dog is typically over excited, especially when he is going on a walk, and she's always patient with him. She gets him safe on his harness, keeps him well hydrated, and makes sure the pavement isn't too hot on his little paws. She is also extra careful entering and exiting my house, as my dog likes to run out the front door. Paige also has multiple pets of her own, including many dogs and a cat, that she can easily manage and keep happy. She is great at identifying personalities of pups and pets and adapting to their personal needs or routine.”

She has watched our dogs multiple times while we’ve been away on extended vacations, and each time she’s gone above and beyond. She’s attentive, follows instructions carefully, and always reaches out with questions if something is unclear. She takes the time to walk and engage with the dogs, and it’s clear they absolutely adore her. It gives us great peace of mind knowing our pets are in such caring hands while we’re away. Highly recommend!”


Gregory B.
“Greg is one of those rare souls who truly loves animals with his whole heart. He adopted a shelter dog I was sponsoring—one who deeply needed a safe, loving home—and it was the perfect match. She’s now so loved, so spoiled, and living her best life because of him. Greg has always shown up for animals. He’s constantly fostering, volunteering at shelters, and going above and beyond to make sure every dog he meets feels seen and cared for. He even adored my late dog Lucky, and the bond they had meant the world to me. Knowing how much love he gave to Lucky, and now to his adopted pup, I can say without a doubt—Greg will be your dog’s new best friend. He’s truly one of the good ones.”

Barbara w.

Madysen C.
“Madysen is a pet loving human. She is the kindest person to any pet no matter what. She enjoys taking care of any animals and her own. She is a mom of 2 dogs and she loves and takes care of them. If you let madysen become a pet caregiver it would be the best thing for her.”
