“Sophie had the best care and the best time with Wayne and his family. She loved playing with Blaire. This was her first overnight, and our first time using Rover. Thanks for taking such good care of our baby. I highly recommend Wayne to care for your dog. He will treat your pup, like his own. Thank you! We will definitely use his service again, and again.”

“It was so nice to meet Dave. First time user of this sight and was put right at ease with how comforting Dave made my shih tzu feel at home in his home. Dave sent photos throughout the day which also helped me know he was being attentive and loving to my boy. I feel they made a bond that now I can work with and know my Cody will not only be comfortable...but happy beside his new friend Dave when I am not around. I will be calling on him again and would recommend him to anyone who is hesitant to use a "stranger" to watch their precious loved one. In moments, with the manner that Dave conducts himself, they will be fast friends.”

“Damaris was amazing for our kitten! His first stay away from our family was so great with the updates we got and attention he received throughout his stay. Damaris was super accommodating and very sweet — definitely rebooking when needed! 🫶🏻”


“Our Aussie Doodle seemed to love being there. She played with their dog and she slept on the bed with their teen aged son. She took to these people like she had known them all her life. She even jumped up on the son's lap and our doodle just doesn't do that to people she doesn't know. I would definitely use this lady again to watch our dog.”

“Brenda was excellent with our 2 dogs. We just moved to the area from Indiana and have 2 rescue dogs that are very frightened. Brenda was kind and patient with them. She is great and timely with communication which decreased my anxiety as this was the first time we've left them with someone other than family. We will definitely use Brenda again.”


“This was possibly the best stay Elvis has ever had. Marion made sure he felt at home in her house and sent me daily messages to make me feel at ease while I was away. He had the best time playing with her Great Dane, Einstein, who we had a meet-and-greet with prior to his stay to make sure we all felt comfortable before the overnight stay. Since returning from his stay with Marion and Einstein, Elvis has slept for an entire day. So, I knew he had a great time. But most of all, as a result of finally playing with a puppy larger than him, Elvis has been more respectful toward his smaller, older dog sister after returning home. We will definitely be seeing Marion for all of our overnight stays!”

“Patricia made sure to provide updates on how Finn was doing. Her home became Finn’s home, allowing him to roam freely and have all the bed snuggles he wanted. Her dogs instantly made Finn feel welcomed and comfortable in a playful environment. Patrica was very friendly and tentative. I will definitely be happy to leave Finn in her caring hands anytime I have to leave for an extended time.”

“Daniel was recommended by my dog's sitter because she was unavailable at the time. Great recommendation! Me and my son both said to each other that we felt very comfortable leaving Dutchess in his care.”

“Such a great little family and space. I could see in the check in messaging how relaxed and stress free my dog was during the whole visit. Very relaxing environment. When you book with a kennel or even people who have several dogs they are either watching or personally own and it can get really stressful for your pup. Not with this crew though. Thank you all so much. Will use again and highly recommend (although part of me just wants to keep them for ourselves 🤣💕🙏).”

About: I have been walking and boarding dogs for 5 years, gaining experience with a variety of breeds, including large dogs in my household.

I have some days off during the week and occasionally on weekends to care for dogs. I am available anytime from 9 AM to 5 PM. If you need earlier availability, please feel free to reach out and request it. I want to assure you that I will be very respectful and responsible while caring for your pup at your home and in mine.

Additionally, I always make sure they are clean and have enough water, especially since we’re in Florida! 😄

About: What sets me apart is over 10 years of hands on experience caring for my own dogs. I’ve been through every stage of a pup’s life from energetic, curious puppies to the tender care senior dogs need. I understand the patience, consistency, and love it takes to keep dogs happy and healthy. Because of this, I treat every dog like family, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away.” Right now, I have plenty of free time which means I can give your pet my full attention.I enjoy making pet care part of my daily routine from morning walks to playtime and cuddles throughout the day. Having the flexibility in my schedule allows me to keep pets on their normal routines and make sure they always feel cared for and comfortable. In my home, I make sure pets feel safe and comfortable by giving them a calm space, regular walks, and plenty of playtime and affection just like I do with my own dogs. I follow their normal routines as closely as possible so they feel right at home. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and stick to the pet’s usual schedule for feeding, walks, and rest. My goal is always to keep pets happy, loved, and stress free, whether they’re with me or staying in their own familiar environment.
About: I have been a dedicated dog owner since I was 23 years old, and caring for my own dog has given me daily hands-on experience with feeding routines, walks, playtime, basic training, and maintaining a safe and structured environment. I understand how important it is for pet parents to feel confident and secure when leaving their dog with someone else. I offer a calm home environment with personalized attention, and I only accept a limited number of dogs at a time to ensure safety and comfort. I share my home with my own dog, Dobby, a 7-year-old neutered male pitbull. He is calm, friendly, and well-socialized. For everyone’s safety, I require up-to-date vaccinations and always schedule a meet & greet before confirming bookings to make sure both dogs are comfortable together. I prioritize supervision and a structured environment at all times. My goal is to make every dog feel relaxed, cared for, and truly at home. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine since I am home most of the time. Dogs in my care are rarely left alone and receive consistent supervision, scheduled walks, playtime, and structured feeding routines. I prioritize providing a calm and stable environment where your dog will feel safe and attended to throughout the day. I live in a house with a securely fenced yard where dogs can safely play and exercise. My home environment is calm, clean, and structured. I share my home with my neutered, well-socialized dog, and all interactions are supervised. If needed, I am able to separate dogs to ensure everyone’s safety and comfort. I require up-to-date vaccinations and always schedule a meet & greet prior to confirming bookings to ensure a good fit.

It was so nice to meet Dave. First time user of this sight and was put right at ease with how comforting Dave made my shih tzu feel at home in his home. Dave sent photos throughout the day which also helped me know he was being attentive and loving to my boy. I feel they made a bond that now I can work with and know my Cody will not only be comfortable...but happy beside his new friend Dave when I am not around. I will be calling on him again and would recommend him to anyone who is hesitant to use a "stranger" to watch their precious loved one. In moments, with the manner that Dave conducts himself, they will be fast friends.

Wayne took great care of Dakota! His dog is very sweet and got along great with my dog. He sent a lot of pictures to keep me updated while I was away and was very good at communicating. My dog enjoyed her own vacation at his house. Will definitely be booking with him for my next trip

I had the greatest interaction with Julianna. She allowed us to go in & check out the house. She was pleasant, friendly & approachable. My fur baby had the greatest time. She answered me each time I sent a message, she asked about his diet & treats, his walk time & his toys. She sent me pics of him having the time of his life. I would recommend her. She was 10/10.
