Sky made me feel really comfortable when she showed up for the meet and greet with my dog. She sat with Hachi and took her time, learning her behavior and making her feel comfortable. This really put me at ease. She is extremely responsive and keeps you informed. She sends pictures and videos of how Hachi is doing.

Jewell was absolutely amazing with my dogs! 🐾 She cared for them like they were her own and kept me updated the whole time. My pups were happy, calm, and clearly adored her. I highly recommend Jewell to anyone looking for a loving, reliable pet sitter!

Sonja is wonderful. She is very accommodating. Bruno loves her and would cry when she leaves. I enjoy the photos that she takes of him with every walk. I wish I can use Sonja permanently.

Highly recommend her! She communicates and arrives on time. Our dog must have really enjoyed his time with her because he was napping when I got home and was tired. She updated me with great pics of their walk.

About: I grew up in a small town in Wisconsin on a farm which allowed me to have pets like cows and horses as well as cats, dogs, and fish. From an early age, animals have always been a large park of my life. In college I earned a Bachelor's of Science in Wildlife Ecology. This grew my love for animals to include the wild creatures that live in our back yards. At home, my husband and I have two rescue dogs who have made our house feel like a home. They have travelled the country with us in our camper and I cannot imagine life without our two pups. I currently nanny Wednesday and can be available for early morning walks upon request; I am able to house sit Wednesday as long as your pet can go a normal workday being left alone. I can be very flexible every other weekday for your needs. Weekends I am available for morning and evening care for sure and can plan for daytime care with proper notice. Happy to adjust my weekend schedule in order to provide pet care. I will treat your pets and home as if they were my own. If directions are left by parents, I will follow them and ask any clarifying questions that are needed. I will respect your pets boundaries and ensure they are well cared for.

About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was a little girl. I simply adore pets of any kind. If given the chance with your fur baby, I will treat them like my own. I currently live on the island of Longboat Key full time so this makes it perfect for individuals who work or are snowbirds and need a sitter only during certain months. I have a fully fenced in property and love to be outside and having fun with your pet. I also travel to your home too, if needed.

I had the pleasure of teaching both Jose and Alexis when they were students of mine and they were excellent in the classroom so it’s no surprise that that excellence and professionalism transfers over to their dog walking. It gives me immense pleasure to say that they are by far the most professional dog walkers I’ve come across. They communicated about Luna, took tons of pictures, made sure she had a great time AND got a nice long walk in and showed her lots of love. I wholeheartedly recommend both Jose and Alexis for your dog walking needs. They are exceptional.

About: I’ve taken care of my dogs and cats since I was 15. I am able to walk, feed, bathe, and play with tour loved ones! I have never had any issues with my animals nor my friends animals either! Your animals will always have a fun time getting to play with me and constantly entertained. Due to being in healthcare, my schedule is different every week but I’m usually free at least 4 days a week, but you can find available days on my calender. But, I also work night shift so I am able to have some additional flexibility on shift days, especially in the morning! I live near a dog park and have a large neighborhood for long walks. I currently live in an apartment complex with a dog park and there is plenty of space around the complex to spend time and let energy out. My boyfriend is also home with me every third day due to his rotating paramedic schedule but he has cared for his two family dogs most his life and thoroughly enjoys spending time with animals.

About: I got my first dog when I was 4 years old and have ever since had dogs in my life. Whether mine, friends, or finding fur mates to walk and puppy sit. I love to travel so don’t have any of my own but wherever I go I make sure I have a running/ walking/ snuggle bud close by. I have cared for puppies, small dogs, elderly dogs, and very large dogs whom needed extra care. I’ve administered ear and allergy medication and my best friend is a Veterinarian so she has always been very helpful with any questions I’ve had. I’ve cared for cats as well. I’ve lived with 4 different cats and have watched 2 others but have never had one of my own. I enjoy running, hikes, and walks on the beach so it’s always nice to have a buddy to have tag along. I enjoy throwing the ball and I love teaching dogs new tricks! I’m very patient and persistent so I have done well with training if I’ve had quality time with them. I really love animals and getting paid to hang out with them is literally a dream. I would love to care for your pet and make a new friend ☺️. I am pretty flexible! Just message me with any scheduling questions that you may have! I am available most weekends and some of the holidays :) I care for dogs in clients home, but can board cats. I cannot board dogs cause the condo I live in does not allow it.

About: I was an animal rights activist in LA for many years. My love for animals started as a small child; I grew up on a farm and have owned and cared for any kind of animal you can possibly imagine(even pet skunks). I have experience working in animal rescues, veterinary offices, and dog daycares. I started having my own pet sitting business in college called 'Fuzzy Buddies'. I am extremely in tune and sensitive to each individual animal's needs. My downfall is I will completely baby your beloved fur-children. I can do house sitting visits or stay overnight with your babies. I can also administer medications along with meal plans or take to and from the vet. I very much look forward to spending time with your beloved angel-babies!

My dog loves Breanna. She always shows up on time and is so pleasant. I will miss her when I no longer need her. She has been such a great help as I recovered from a hip replacement. Thanks for helping me find her.

Leah did a great job walking our dog and providing feedback. She stopped by a few days prior to meet him. She walked him twice on the day we reserved, both times with his tail was wagging high when she arrived. We will definitely want her to walk our dog again.
