Kaitland did a wonderful job caring for our elderly dog, Prim. She gave her a variety of daily meds and Prim came home happy and calm. Great experience!

Edward is a “Dog Whisperer”! He was GREAT with my dog Milli. Kept me informed of her well being and what a wonderful time she had with him. I would recommend him to anyone that wants their dog treated with loving care! Thank you, Edward! I would give you 10 stars but the scale only goes up to five.😊👏🏽👍🏽

Christian was amazing! From all the picture and video updates, to her updating me on how my baby Kayo was doing, how good he was, and she even took him out to a park for walks! Christian treated my furbaby like he was her own, down to her cooking my baby boy some food! If I could give more than 5 stars I would. I’ve booked with other people before but I have never felt this secure with leaving my baby! If you’re reading this, don’t hesitate to book with her because I promise you, your furbaby will be in the best care. Thank you so much for loving on Kayo, he seemed sad to leave his new friends lol. We will definitely be booking again!

If you are looking to board your beloved four-legged babies, don't hesitate w Sabatina! She and her sweet children will love on your babies. Our cat and dog stayed for an entire week while we stayed at a beachhouse in St.Augustine. Sabatina is quick to respond and happy to send pics of the fur babies. We will be back! Very awesome!!

I usually go with a pet boarding facility but wanted to try something different. Meaghan was very responsive and flexible with my schedule. She welcomed my 2 frenchies with open arms no hesitation. She made me feel more comfortable with her than taking them to a pet paradise.

If you’re even thinking about booking Katerina—stop thinking and just do it. She’s not a 10/10… she’s a 1,000,000. From the moment we connected, her communication was on another level. Constant updates, photos, and videos—you never have to wonder how your dog is doing. You *see* it in real time, and it’s obvious your pet is not just being watched… they’re being genuinely cared for. Her home is spotless—truly next-level clean. Non-smoking environment, calm energy, and everything feels safe and intentional. That matters more than people admit. This isn’t a chaotic drop-off situation—it’s structured, peaceful, and professional. She also has a young child who absolutely loves animals, which adds a really special dynamic. It’s not forced interaction—it’s natural, warm, and your dog feels it. Mine came back not just happy, but super happy. And the backyard? Huge, fully fenced, and perfect for dogs to run, explore, and actually burn energy—not just pace around. What separates Katerina from everyone else is simple: she treats your dog like it’s her own, and she backs that up with constant visibility and care. I wouldn’t hesitate for a second to book with her again—and frankly, once you use her, everyone else will feel like a downgrade.

Lala was fantastic! She came a little earlier to pick up Cleopatra because of a conflict that arose. On top of that, she kept her a little bit longer than prearranged delivery back home. She sent pictures and descriptions of Cleopatra’s mood and she did much better than I expected.(the cat, not Lala ;)). We definitely recommend her and would use her again.!!

Rachel took such great care of my hyperactive 1 year old rescue mutt. Rachel was extremely accomodating and flexible with my pick up time. My dog was so happy in her home and came home worn out from all the playing with her 2 sweet pups! I highly recommend her if you want a loving pet sitter that treats your dog like her own.

David and Jessica were fantastic dog sitters for Kingston! While we were out of town, they provided daily pictures and updates, ensuring he was well cared for and happy. Their attentiveness and dedication gave us peace of mind throughout our trip. I would highly recommend them to anyone in need of reliable and caring pet sitters!
