Megan is an amazing caregiver! She provided a safe, fun environment, and my dog was clearly excited to see her every day. Megan has a lovely home and a sweet and friendly family. She was also endlessly flexible and accommodating to my weird schedule. I would absolutely go to her again anytime I have the dog with me in the area. Thank you, Megan!

I am comfortable around animals of all temperaments and enjoy building positive relationships with them.

From the moment we dropped off our pup, I felt completely at ease. My dog was clearly happy, comfortable, and well cared for the entire time. She sent regular updates with photos and messages, which meant the world to me and gave me so much peace of mind. It’s obvious she genuinely loves animals and treats them like family. I will definitely be booking with her again—highly recommend!

About: I’ve had pets to care for in my life for more years than I haven’t! From kitty liters being born on my porch to pups with epilepsy, I’ve seen & handled it all! I grew up with a dad who had a special interest in dogs & dog training (does the name Cesar Millan mean anything to you 😏) & we ALWAYS had pets in the house. I’ve cared for American Bulldogs, pugs, adult cats & kitty litters! (And chickens but I don’t think those are allowed in my apartment) I work remotely, so I’m always open to moving my schedule around for what may work best for your little one. We’ll keep em as on schedule as possible while you’re away. :) Im also a retired nanny! So I’m very used to sending check in photos and txt updates, as well as full “while you were away” reports upon trip returns! If ur looking for someone safe & trustworthy to keep an eye on your fur babies, I’m ur gal ;) Can’t wait 2 chat! Talk soon! Xx I work from home and create my own schedule!! So I’m free to hang out with your fur babies as much as possible <3 I’ll keep them on their normal schedule so they don’t feel the slightest bit of discomfort :) I have a pet free home , because I travel too often right now to have a fur baby of my own. That being said , if your baby is a little shy or prefers being by themselves, this is the spot for them!

About: I am a 47 year old male, whose Air Force duties were crew chief for F-22 fighter jets, serving overseas during the Iraq war. I have top secret security clearance and many missions under my belt. My passion now is animals. I am currently an SPCA foster parent to both dogs and cats. No job is too big or too small when caring for your pet. Whether they have medical needs or just need a happy face to lick, I can take care of it all. I am available day or night with total peace of mind everything will be cared for. I live in South Lakeland. I am retired and available for boarding, client home boarding and care, pet walks and visits. I'm available any day and time. I will answer all requests as soon as I see them. I live alone in a small and safe community, with little traffic, which makes it safe for walks. I have a unfenced yard but I take great care allowing the dog to have freedom in the yard while being on a leash. I have access to a fenced in dog "play" area in my community. My home is non-smoking, cozy, and quiet. I keep the home air cool to provide comfort for the animals. I maintain constant contact with your loved one to know they are safe and happy. I will provide daily texts and photos of the pet, to the owner, to show they are safe and happy.

Kenny did such an incredible job with our 4 month old puppy! Great house and the perfect back yard. He even took her on a long walk around the neighborhood. We got pictures throughout her stay and details about her schedule. He even taught her some new tricks. I’m so impressed! I would highly recommend Kenny!

March 2026....10 years with Rover I have over 50 years professional experience caring for dogs, I am now retired. I have worked in the boarding, grooming, training and vet tech fields.

Serenah is so responsive and on top of it!! This was our dog Oliver’s first visit with her to get him ready to board for an upcoming trip, so he was only at daycare for a few hours. Even though it was a short visit, Serenah walked him and took several pictures for us. So happy to have found such a lovely sitter in a home setting so our little guy doesn’t have to be locked away at a kennel!

About: 2020 update: Work from home in PR. Family full of animal lovers. Kids very comfortable with many types of animals as they are taught to respect them. 2017 update: Recently relocated back to Florida earlier this year and as much as we miss California it is nice to be back home with Family, especially now that we have a new bundle of joy (one without fur ;p )! Will be updating the images of our new 2 story home that is more spacious and accommodating for all types of pups :) Previous description: Hi there! My husband and I moved here from Florida back in October. I worked at a tech company in downtown San Diego after I moved out here and it just re-confirmed office life isn't for me. I love animals and am trying to start a business involving dogs. Back in Florida I would pet sit for many of my friends and family, and they had all types of dogs. We have a 2-bedroom town home with a lot of space. We also have 2 of our own furbabies, a mini beagle and a lab mix. We take them to the dog park by our house, many walks a day, and to the dog beach (their favorite!). I have great availability. Picture text updates of your pooch, as well!

We highly recommend Francisca. Our dog, Buddy had the best time with her. My children mentioned how calm Buddy was when we picked him up.(I don’t have to tell you other dog owners what a relief that is;). Francisca communicated well and sent pictures! Definitely plan to use her services again. Five Stars!
