“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.”

About: I’ve been running a “private flight crew” for dogs in my past apartment community for the last 4 years. Now that we’ve moved into a home with a yard, I’m able to expand my guest list and offer more First-Class stays. I specialize in creating a calm, boutique boarding experience with small groups, gentle structure, and tons of personal attention. My background is in real, in-home care for dogs of all personalities — seniors, shy pups, social butterflies, and everything in between — and I focus on safe introductions, cozy routines, and individualized care so every pup feels secure and completely at home. You can also catch us on instagram - CanineconciergeSRQ Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine — it’s part of my everyday “flight plan.” I work from home and stay hands-on throughout the day, so the pups enjoy consistent attention, yard time, play, treats, and snuggles. My husband, Riley, is also a co-pilot in our little operation, and for reasons unknown, every pup decides he’s their instant favorite — I’ve accepted it. Together we keep a calm, steady rhythm with morning potty breaks, midday activity, afternoon naps, and evening walks or yard zoomies. Because we only host a small number of dogs at a time, each pup gets the time, structure, and companionship they need to feel completely comfortable and cared for. When pups stay in our home, they live right alongside us — part of the household, never tucked away or left alone in a separate space. I tailor each dog’s care to match their routine and personality: slow introductions for shy pups, structured play for energetic guests, cozy rest areas for nappers, and plenty of enrichment throughout the day. I supervise all interactions to keep the environment peaceful and positive, and I follow your feeding, medication, and comfort instructions exactly as you share them. Riley is also involved in the day-to-day care (and yes, he somehow becomes everyone’s favorite within minutes). With only a small number of dogs at a time, we’re able to give each pup thoughtful, individualized attention and create a safe, familiar, truly home-like experience.

About: Hi! I have been working with pets for 15 years now. I started in doggy daycare and have since worked as a vet tech and professional dog groomer. Comfortable with any medication administration. I’m happy to hang with your pet on the couch or walk/run your dog on request. My work schedule is flexible and I would be happy to work with you based on your pets’ needs! Reach out, I’d love to work with you! I will treat your home as if it is my own! No request is too silly. I understand spicy cats and behavioral dogs can be nervous with someone coming into their home. I will do my best to make everyone comfortable.

About: Hi, Im Alexa! I am 26 and I’m from Indiana. I moved to Florida just recently and I currently work part time and would love to meet new furry friends. I have always loved animals and have had many pets during my life. I have had 4 cats, 2 dogs, and rabbits, hamsters, and birds. I have gained most of my experience dog sitting through my family members. I currently take care of my cousins’ golden doodle and cocker spaniel twice a year since 2020. I have also dog sat my grandparents’ corgi multiple times. I do have some experience farm sitting for rabbits and chickens as well. I am open to whatever needs are necessary for keeping your pets happy and look forward to meeting them. :) I am currently working part time, 4 days a week for around 5 hours a day. I am available 3 days out of the week or longer if my part time schedule will not affect the sitting. If any questions about scheduling please feel free to reach out. :) Your wish is my command! Whatever is necessary to keeping your pets happy and healthy, I am willing to do! Walks, lots of potty breaks, food schedules, medication, cuddles, etc. As long as everything is noted, I am happy to be there

“We can’t say enough wonderful things about Molly! More than a year after she first took care of our two cats Alvin and Lucy, they immediately recognized her when she stopped by to to pick up her key and ran to her for rubs and sweet words. Lucy literally reached up and gave her a hug! After that visit, we felt comfortable that Molly would follow our cats’ daily schedule and offer them loving care and ample play opportunities. During her visits, she kept their litter area pristine, and meticulously followed their feeding schedule which included administering a daily antihistamine to Lucy. At one point, she alerted us that Alvin was experiencing a sneezing episode and we approved her giving him the antihistamine, as well. The daily pictures she sent captured the essence of our little buddies, and showed how much she loved being and playing with them and they with her. We ALWAYS will choose Molly to take care of Alvin and Lucy when we travel.”

About: I've spent almost a lifetime taking care of cats and dogs, and I find the bond between animal and owner to be one of the most powerful things on earth. I've been called upon to care for friends and families to pet-sit for them many times throughout my life. I currently have an open weekday schedule so I'm fully available for any and all of your pets basic needs. Weekends are also fully available. Pet safety is a top priority for me, all feeding and walking instructions will be precisely followed. I like to spend a little extra time with pets during feedings just to observe and give them company.

About: I am a dedicated and dependable pet care provider with over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for animals independently. I have grown up around pets my entire life and have cared for a wide variety of animals, including dogs, cats, chickens, rabbits, rats, fish, and turtles. This diverse background has given me strong instincts, adaptability, and a deep understanding of individual animal needs. I currently own a cat who is a cherished companion, and caring for her has reinforced my commitment to providing patient, attentive, and high-quality care. I treat every pet as if they were my own and understand how important trust and communication are when caring for someone else’s beloved animals. My goal is to ensure that every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved, whether through daily care, companionship, feeding, or maintaining routines. I take pride in being reliable, gentle, and attentive, and I am passionate about helping pet owners feel confident and at ease while they are away. I work as a server, so my schedule can vary from week to week; however, I typically work evening shifts from around 4:00 PM to 9:00 PM. This makes me most available for pet care during morning and early afternoon hours (approximately 8:00 AM to 2:00 PM), which works well for daily visits, walks, and check-ins. I am happy to accommodate overnight pet sitting, and I always communicate my work schedule in advance to ensure it aligns with both the pet’s routine and the owner’s expectations. Clear communication is a priority for me, and I strive to make sure every pet receives consistent, reliable care while their owner is away. I understand that every pet and owner has unique needs, routines, and expectations. I am committed to working closely with pet parents to ensure all care requirements are met, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and daily routines. Whether a pet thrives on a structured schedule or prefers a more flexible, relaxed routine, I am happy to accommodate what works best for both the pet and the owner. My goal is always to provide consistent, attentive care while making the experience as stress-free and comfortable as possible for everyone involved.

About: I have been a long time dog owner and love spending time with dogs of all ages and sizes. I’ve owned dogs my entire life and have pet-sat for many friends and neighbors growing up. I currently work for an animal shelter so I’m used to working with a variety of dogs and cats and their various personalities. I know every dog is different so I customize each experience so that it’s right for your pet. If your dog likes to run, I’ll run with them. If they like to play fetch, I’ll play with them. Whatever your dog needs, I’ll be there for them. I’ve had many dogs with different personalities so I’m used to changing my methods to keeping them happy and healthy. I work flexible hours, with only a couple days on site vs. remote, so I have the ability to spend time with your pets and give them the love they need. I provide care in clients home. I’m currently only doing dog walks and drop in visits; no overnight stays right now. This may be an option in the future.

About: I’m a counselor during the school year and have side jobs to supplement my income. Kids and animals love me as I love them even more! ;) For the pets that I fall in love with, I will maintain those services. I have a therapy dog that works along side me. I’ve given medicine, bathe, love on them and will be their fill in mommy/daddy until you return. ;) I’m also open to discussing the costs. ***Currently I don’t have any pets of my own so I have a lot of flexibility. The therapy dog is a volunteer. I have a lot of flexibility. I am off during the summers, holidays, weekends, spring breaks, etc. I enjoy working with animals. During the school year I’m a school counselor. I have flexibility with the job as I’m able to leave for a lunch break/check on your pup. Also, my school counselor hours are 8:15-3:30. I am in early and off early to be able to check on your animals. *** I will be in town for ALL holidays, weekends, and last minute availability:) I feed them, provide love, walks, and play with them. I am happy to have your kennel here for them if it helps them feel more comfortable. That is not a requirement though. I prefer going to your home only because the animals tend to do better in their own house.

Caroline took great care of my very old kitty, Cody. She kept me up to date with notes and pictures which eased my worry, as this was her first time taking care of him. Cody was happy to see her and I could tell that he was very relaxed by her twice daily visits. We will definitely use Caroline again when the need arises.

What a wonderful month+ for Scout. Dana, you have a friend for life! I am also feeling very fortunate to have you in charge of Scout while we traveled to see family in CA. I can not thank you enough for the tender loving care you gave Scout to let me visit family for 6 weeks. It was a long time, but I think she loved her time with Dana!! 🩷
