“Kathrin was great! She’s such a sweet person and my two girls were well taken care of. I will definitely be calling her again! I received pictures and details & highly I recommend her.”

“10/10 recommend! Super communicative, extremely friendly, and took care of our older dog! Would definitely rebook for any doggie needs in the future.”

“Adriana was Amazing. Fulfilled my request same day, flexible with time, sent pictures of herself with Gabby since we hadn't the chance to meet yet so I really appreciated it. She was easy to work with and Gabby welcomed her with kisses.”

“Lori is great!! She helped us with our 9 week old puppy and 1 year old grand-dog while we attended an event in Tampa. She came the day before to meet the pups and they both went right to her! ? She sent pics every time she dropped in and the dogs were great when we got home. We will definitely use her again if the need arises and I would highly recommend her! Thank you Lori!”

“Mayzie was the BEST! She worked with my dog who’s a little shy with new people until he was comfortable and they ended up having the best day together. She sent me pictures and updates with every visit and took the time to actually spend time with my boy! Definitely recommend Mayzie any time ?”

About: I have been a pet sitter in my home for 20 years and have had dogs since I was 10 years old. I accept all breeds as all dogs are the same in my eyes. I trained all of my own dogs as well as helped friends and neighbors with their own animals. It is a daunting task trying to find that reliable special someone you can trust your pet with. You want to make sure they are not stressed out because you are gone. I find that having a pet myself helps them forget about your being absent. They have an instant friend to play and bond with. So if you want someone who will love and care for your pet while your away Puppyboysmom is the place to stay. My husband Keith is also a dog lover and enjoys all the pups we have in our care. He helps out with all pups. Prefer dogs over 2 years old as Tahoe is a senior dog. I also require a meet and greet to ensure both pups are happy. Pick up or drop off additional 25.00 for each way. I work from home and am not gone more than a 5 hours at a time. My husband is a dog lover as well and is also home with me to help care for pups. He and I are a team with the care for all guest pups. I have a yard and am on a cul de sac. Please bring dog crate for your pups stay so they have a piece of their home with them. For many pups they feel this is their safe place.

“Jennifer was great with our pups! She sent photos of their playtime in the yard with each drop in. She also brought packages into our home that had been delivered while we were away so that they wouldn’t be sitting out in the rain. Very kind and considerate. Will definitely ask her to watch our pups again :)”

About: Experience in caring for pets (dogs, cats, birds, fish, reptiles, pigs - you name it!) and house-sitting for 20+ years. I provide comfort to animals in absence of their humans and ensure they feel loved while you are away. I have experience administering medications and vitamins, following up with the vet if your pet is mid-treatment, and you can leave with peace of mind that I am following established medical regiments for a smooth recovery if your pet is on light duty. I have worked with dogs fresh out of surgery and kept them comfortable during their R&R down time. I’ve helped neighbors by caring for their mama dog and litter of 9 puppies while they were away. I have professional and personal references that can attest to my integrity and devotion to making sure your pets feel safe and loved. I know some people are hesitant to have a stranger in their home, but rest assured - my remote job requires annual background checks and randomized drug testing. I can bring in your mail, water your plants, and leave your home beautifully cleaned. I was pet sitting during Hurricane Idalia and I can last minute prep your home + keep your pet company during potential disasters. I work remote and have a flexible routine which allows for at least 3 walks for 15-30 minutes (between 7:30am-4:30pm) and unlimited potty breaks as needed. After 4:30 pm I like to go for longer walks if it's not too hot. My typical routine includes a morning and noon walk, early afternoon play time (frisbee, tennis ball, or outside yard/park running), and an evening walk or run. I’m open to any additional requests. I can accommodate services in almost any environment! In my own home there is a dog door and fenced yard. For housesitting, I can easily slide into whatever layout is established. I find that most animals are more comfortable in their own home but I will consider short term services in my home on a case-by-case basis.

“My dog, Cava, perks up whenever she hears the words “Uncle Jesse” and for good reason! Since the day the two met, Jesse has made special effort to not only give my Golden girl all the pets she desires, but will go to lengths to play with her. From throwing the ball in seemingly endless games of fetch to getting down to her level on the floor, playfully rough-housing, Jesse is the greatest. Whenever Jesse dog sits for me, I receive the cutest and most thoughtful photos of Cava enjoying walks or being her goofy self at home. I would highly recommend Jesse to care for your pet, especially if they love compliments in high-pitched voices and fun that lasts throughout their time together.”

“Kathy was reliable, attentive and thorough. I left directions and she followed them precisely. She was so loving with our puppy and I trusted her so much. I loved her updates as well. We are so grateful for her and it is because of her ONLY that I was not stressed out on my honeymoon!!!!!”

“What a wonderful young lady she is. I’m so happy that we have found her.”

“Jackson just loved her and she made sure to keep in good contact! Thanks for taking care of my baby!”

“Sam was awesome!! She was a great dog sitter!!”

“Craig and his fiancée Karli are the only people I trust to watch my dog. He is always so happy to go over there and doesn't seem to mind when we leave him there. They send us lots of pictures so we can still see him and feel close while we are gone. They also take great care of their own dog... taking her to the vet regularly and keeping her active. Highly recommend!”

“Madison has been a pet sitter for my dog on several occasions. She’s very responsible, attentive and loving towards my dog. Madison treats him as her own. It’s reassuring to know that I can depend on her to follow instructions I provide for feeding and walking. I highly recommend Madison.”
