Alex is truly incredible. Her soft, gentle demeanor combined with her knowledge on how to care for pets makes her a perfect choice. She really helped us out last minute on a holiday weekend. We ( and our fur babies ) look forward to working with her in the future.

I cannot express how grateful I am to Yaritza. I have a very anxious Chihuahua that suffers from separation. Yaritza was very aware of this and highly patient. She was highly communicative and thoughtful. This is the 1st time in a long time that I have felt at ease on trip that I had I had to leave my fur babies behind.

About: I have had a big passion for animals since childhood. I grew up with many animals and always dreamed of working with animals. I graduated from university with an associate in veterinary technician. I been working for several years in veterinary medicine and doggy daycare i really have fun and enjoy all my time with them. I’m currently working 3 days per week, usually I’m off on Sunday and the rest of the time at home. My schedule rotates, I do not always have the same days off. I have an empty room only for them, small cage if needed and a porch that they can be around. I’m a pet friendly and I always walk my dog around so he can enjoy the complex.

Christian is amazing with our 4 babies. We have an aggressive Great Dane and we needed someone to work with him and be patient with him. My dog loves Christian and I never feel bad or worried when I have to leave him or any of my babies.

About: This job helps me pay my school tuition. So please book with me it would really mean a lot:) I love playing with dogs!! I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 11. I really enjoyed it because I love animals. In the summer I had an internship at a doggy daycare. I would feed, bathe, train puppies and even take care of senior dogs too. I’m currently attending vet assistant school so I have limited availability during the week but open during weekends! I would have free time to have playtime with your wonderful dogs. Also book with me during holidays!! I unfortunately don’t have a fenced yard. But I will definitely keep an extra eye out on yall babies. I would have a fun but also safe environment for these beautiful pets.

About: I have volunteered at animal shelters. I have experience working with “exotic” animals. There was not a moment in my life I did not have a furry or feathered friends. Hi! My name is Dustin, and I’m a dedicated animal lover with a genuine passion for caring for pets like they’re my own. I have hands-on experience with dogs of different sizes, temperaments, and energy levels, including strong breeds like American Bullies. I understand that every pet is unique, and I take the time to learn their routines, personalities, and needs. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or simply providing comfort and companionship, I prioritize safety, patience, and positive reinforcement. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I aim to give you peace of mind while you’re away by providing attentive, reliable, and loving care. Your pet’s happiness, comfort, and well-being will always come first with me. I do not board any animals in my home. I know that every animals schedule is different and will follow any special instructions given. I am comfortable taking dogs for walks, car rides (if you are comfortable, of course) and love to play with your fur or feathered babies!

Mandie is absolutely incredible. Not only does she treat your dog like her own, but she ensures they feel loved like you would yourself. This is the second time Mandie took care of our Bean and I think we found our dog sitter for life. She sends so many pictures and videos and Bean is always so happy when she comes over to see him — I mean really, he gets more excited for her to come over than when my husband and I come home 😅. Mandie is also just a joy of a person who is punctual, clean, flexible with our hectic schedules and we are always happy to have her sit at our house. Seriously don’t think twice, and book Mandie to watch your pup ASAP. You won’t regret it!

Sia sat for our young dog at our home for a long vacation and she was wonderful! Teddy loved her, she provided regular updates and photos . She worked with him on playing fetch and taught him “Stop” while on walks. It was comforting to know our dog and our home were well cared for while we were gone. We will definitely use her again and highly recommend anyone else to use Sia if she is available.

About: Hi fellow pet lovers! My name is Malia, and I’m a student-athlete at Florida Southern College with a deep love for animals. Back home, I’ve always been the one to care for and cherish my family dogs, and here at school, I’ve become the go-to pet sitter for my teammates when they’re away.

I look forward to meeting you and your beloved companions!

I genuinely love and appreciate all types of dogs and have experience working with a variety of breeds and temperaments. I ensure a safe, loving environment tailored to your pet’s needs. From playtime and walks to keeping their water bowl full and providing plenty of potty breaks (don’t worry—I always have poop bags on hand!), your dog’s happiness and well-being are my top priorities.

When Luciano first came in our house - immediately - his focus and interest was on our pups. He sat down and played with them right off the bat, and they were in love. We could almost see the bonding happening in that moment, and we knew our pups would be in good hands with Luciano. He's kind, and polite, and clearly loves caring for and interacting with dogs. On a 5 star rating, he's a 6. Absolutely the best. We are so lucky to have found him.

Vanessa went above and beyond for our fur babies. She took care of them like they were her own. She sent videos and photos through out the four days she was babysitting them and gave them all the love they wanted. We hit the jackpot with her and will definitely be booking her again.

About: For the past year I have been taking shelter dogs out on the weekend. It is normally older dogs that have been there the longest but I do also have experience with puppies! I also have experience overnight dog sitting. My dog passed away last year so it has been extremely healing to care for the other dogs that don’t have as much. I am currently split living between Massachusetts and Florida (for school). I have a summer job in MA as a teachers assistant however I am looking for a side job! Although I don’t currently have a dog due to financial reasons, I would love to get one! My home has a large front and backyard that is fenced and I can also help with crate training if needed!
