“Lindsey was amazing and took such good care of our little Tito! I highly recommend using her. We will for sure have her watch our little dog. Makes the vacation so much better when you’re not having to worry about your house or your pet. Thank you for everything Lindsey.”


2. Maks H.

“She did an amazing job taking care of my baby. Her siblings weren’t part of the deal but she still gave them lots of love and were taken care of.”


3. Alyson F.

“Alyson was amazing! Our boys were so happy and had so much fun with her! There is nothing better when traveling than knowing your dogs are safe and happy at home. We came home to happy wagging tails and a clean home! We hope Alyson is available every time we go out of time.”


4. Hannah M.

“Absolutely the best sitter! Hannah was very communicative with updates and pictures. She was very patient with my dog who takes some time to get used to new people.”

About: Safety and confidentiality first! Sitting: Over nights, short to long term. Administering Medicine Food Prep Play dates Vet and Groomer visits Walking: 20, 30, 60, 90 min walks experience with small and large breeds I love animals!!! I love playing with them and cuddling with them. I have experience administering medicine orally and by injection, food prepping, vet visits, groomer visits, play dates and dog runs. Dog walking is very therapeutic for me. I believe dogs are very receptive to different energies. I have open availability and I am able to sit at your preference. Multiple pets are accepted at the same time. Picture updates could be provided if requested. Home light cleaning will be included with every stay. Referrals are always appreciated. Thank you I am currently working part-time hours, which work hours are flexible. I am able to fit in your requested schedule necessity into my daily routine with ease. I appreciate any instructions to how you normally care for your pet, in order for me to replicate your behavior while you are away. I adhere to instructions given by the pawrent, which varies per household. I come in with the mindset that your pet is a child in your eyes and thus take care of them as such. Respect, honestly and integrity are the foundation of my being and how I will care for your loved companions.


6. Elizabeth M.

“We were very nervous to leave our two dogs at home while we went out of the country. Both dogs have severe separation anxiety and this would be the first time leaving them. Elizabeth was great from start to finish. From asking all the detailed questions before the sitting and sending us updates every night. I would recommend her for first time users especially. We will definitely be rebooking with her when we need a sitter again.”


7. Reynaldo V.
“Reynaldo has dog sat my two dogs, Piper and Oliver, on numerous occasions over the last four years. I can say with confidence that Reynaldo is the best dog sitter I have ever had the pleasure of working with. He takes excellent care of my two dogs and makes sure to follow any specific care instructions I leave for him. But what makes him my favorite dog sitter is that he has put in a great effort to build a special bond with my pets. Whenever I leave my dogs in his care, I can see that they are truly happy and comfortable with him. I feel at ease on every vacation knowing that my pets are not only being well cared for, but also spending time with someone they love. Reynaldo is truly the best!”


8. Nevaeh W.

“Nevaeh is exceptional! I would highly recommend her. She is kind, communicative, attentive, and tended to both my dog's unique needs and my requests and check ins. I think my pup was more catered to while I was away, than when I work from home :) She knows how to take charge with my 80 lb dog and he absolutely adores her! I would 1000% continue to book with Nevaeh every month if we weren't moving away.”


9. Susan S.

“Stop your search—Susan is the best dog sitter in Orlando & Kissimmee, hands down. During our stay at Margaritaville Resort, she transformed what’s usually a nerve-wracking experience for our two sensitive Italian Greyhounds into a stress-free, joyful week. From the first meeting, Susan’s warmth and expertise put our pups at ease in a way no sitter has before. Susan’s care goes far beyond the basics. She took the time to understand our dogs’ unique needs and provided thoughtful touches, like calming techniques and even the occasional therapeutic massage. Each day, we came back from Orlando’s attractions to find our dogs calm, happy, and visibly at peace—not the anxious pups we’ve come to expect after a sitter’s shift. If you’re staying in the Orlando area and want top-tier care for your pets, don’t miss out on Susan. She’s more than a sitter—she’s a trusted caregiver who will leave your pets as smitten with her as we are. Book her—you’ll thank yourself later!”


10. Connor S.
“Connor has a way of connecting with pets that is unmatched. He has owned and fostered dogs for years which has allowed for him to work with dogs of all types and with many different special needs. He is focused on the well rounded care of each pet including but not limited to on-time feeding, walks, play time and general lovability. Connor's abilities are not specific to just dogs either. He has demonstrated a strong connection to other pets as well, specifically cats, lizards, birds and other exotic animals. Any pet owner would be lucky to have Connor watching their family members.”


11. Deanice C.


“Deanice was fantastic! She gave us daily updates with pictures of our little ones! She left our place as clean as she found it. Your pets are in great hands with Deanice.”


12. Dalia R.

“Dalia was so kind with my nervous boys and sent me a lot of photos and updates! I will definitely be reaching back out to her the next time I need someone to watch Winston and Wallace.”


13. Olga F.
About: I have lived with animals my whole life. Since birth I have had two dogs - a greyhound and a Doberman. Then there were cats and fish. Then I had the Dalmatian and the Weimaraner. We moved specially to a house with a garden, so that dogs could walk comfortably when they want to and catch lizards. Right now we have no pets so we will surround your pet with whole love and attention 💗 I work from home and am free during the day, so I can spend time outside and happily play with your pets all day long. I have a fenced yard and a huge house, so there’s plenty of space where your pet will feel comfortable. We have a gated community in a very calm area. I limit the number of pets at home to maintain a controlled and peaceful environment. I put effort into creating a comfortable space for your pet, with no crates in the house, ensuring they can find friends and a friendly environment.


14. Shea G.

“Super!! Our dogs are still looking for her ❤️ The house was in perfect condition, she went above and beyond! Communication was great and even a few photos during the stay. Will definitely book again.”


15. Emily C.

“Emily was great with our senior dog that is on lots of meds, as well as our cat! She was communicative and sent plenty of photos. We’ll definitely book with Emily again!”


16. Jennifer B.
“Jennifer is very good with dogs. She plays with them and cuddles with them. She takes good care of them and plays with them to get some energy out.”


17. Catarina F.

“10 Stars!! I was going out of town and my usual pet sitter wasn't available, so I was left with having to find someone online. It's always a little unsettling to let someone you don't know into your home when you're out of town, but it's even more scary leaving your fur babies with someone you don't know! I did a couple meet and greets but I knew right away that Catarina was the right fit. She answered all my questions, and when I released our crazy golden retriever from her crate, Catarina was ready with open arms for her. I have 3 dogs and 1 cat, and organizational ocd, and Catarina didn't even flinch when I pulled out the "binder" of pet sitting info. It put my mind at ease knowing my babies would be in loving, capable hands for the 10 days I would be away. Catarina was communicative while I was away, and sent lots of pictures and videos, and I could tell the animals really took to her. She was respectful of our home and even vacuumed the pet fur tumbleweeds while she was here! I will definitely be calling Catarina for pet sitting needs in the future, and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for an AMAZING pet sitter. ❤️ Thank you, Catarina!! - Katie, Charlize, Mango, Lottie, and Swayze ❤️”




18. Cherie M.
“Cherie showed Mango the best time! This was the third time I've ever trusted him with anyone in 8 years. He got his own mini vacation and I love that for him. Thank you so much!”


19. Karsyn M.

“Karsyn was great and we'll certainly book her again! I highly recommend Karsyn. She was punctual, responsible and great with our dogs. We stayed at Fort Wilderness Campground at Disney and wanted to go to Disney Springs one night. Karsyn stayed with our dogs, took them for walks, fed them dinner and calmed Maury during the fireworks. We enjoyed ourselves knowing the dogs were taken care of.”


20. Emma G.

“Emma was such a good and constant companion to our senior dog Kobe. Thanks for keeping him company!”
