Pet care experience

I grew up in a family with multiple dogs, and with a parent who trains guide dogs. I understand that each dog is unique and has its own needs, and I’m happy to work with the owner to make sure those needs are met.

Once again, William saved the day and eased my anxiety! He is hand down THE best pet sitter/walker/BFF to my two dogs! He is so kind and caring and such a great communicator. He thinks of all the things I forgot and take amazing care of my 2 high maintenance dogs. I never worried the entire day (10 hours I was gone) and normally I would be racked with worry and guilt. William is my favorite person in Florida!

He came through at the very last minute during and emergency and I can’t thank him enough. He took such good care of our boy. Our dog has never been without us so seeing how quickly he warmed up to William made us so happy. Did everything that we asked and even more, and didn’t even complain that our guy was a little stinky after the dog parks on the road trip down. (We didn’t have a chance to bathe him before his boarding because it was unexpected.) Will definitely be booking again on our next trip to Florida.

Will is an absolute gem! Our pup was so well taken care of and exhausted from all the fun he and Will had. Pictures to prove it too ☺️ We will definitely rebook!

Best help I have ever had! I am so protective of my dogs and felt so much guilt having to leave them. But after meeting William my nerves had gone away. My guys love him!
