About: I have been working with pets since 2023! I have done everything from walking dogs at the Humane Society to pet sitting to working at my current job which is a Pet boarding facility! I love animals and am so excited to get to know your pets! I work part time at a dog boarding facility so I’m available most weekends and most weekdays to walk dogs and do drop ins! I have experience walking dogs of all shapes and sizes! I love all breeds as well as all cats! Pets are my passion and I’d love to meet your pets!
About: I’ve been caring for animals my whole life. I love all animals but dogs are my passion. I am a professional dog groomer and I have trained many dogs. Im currently working part time so I have plenty of free time throughout the day and night to spend with your pups!! Im also free the entire weekend! I have a fenced in yard and a 1 year old doodle myself that loves to play. I let the dogs free roam throughout the house.
About: I’ve had several years of personal and professional animal care experience as a kennel technician, dog daycare host and vet technician assistant in the animal hospital atmosphere. My schedule fluctuates but I’m always off work from Saturday-Monday. I work 10 shifts during the week and my travel commute is about 1 1/2 hour per day for work. Pets will always be walked on a leash with constant supervision. Can offer long dog walks, play time at the local dog park, and spa days.
About: I’ve taken care of and had dogs my whole life. I’m the first person my friends and family go to when they need dog care. I’ve been a sitter for many people for many years. Animals have been my passion for many years. I work in the evenings so I have the free time to look after your precious pups. I am willing to travel as far as you need to make sure you have no worries while you’re gone. I live on 5 acres of fenced in yard to have plenty of space for your fur babies. I also have two sweet pups if your puppy wants friends. I have the ability to crate your babies if you prefer that aswell.
“Victoria was an awesome pet sitter for our animals while we were on vacation! She was very attentive, and she took great care of our dog and cat! Glad we found her and will definitely be asking her for help again in the future!”
About: I’ve taken care of multiple different pets for family, friends, neighbors and would love to help with yours too! I have been pet sitting since I was 14 and will treat your fur baby with all the love possible. I have 2 dogs of my own, a 3 year old Australian Sheppard and a 7 month old mini Aussie who are constantly craving more activities. They get daily walks with park trips, car drives, and lots of time to play in the yard with all their toys. I take pets on multiple walks, park visits, and give lots of loving. I am very flexible and work around the dogs/owners needs and wants!

About: I have experience caring for puppies, sick/elderly dogs, and everything in between! My passion and love for dogs is undeniable and never wavers. Dogs have always been my life and I recently lost my dog, so I’m looking to love on other people’s fur babies for the time being. I currently work a full time job Monday-Friday, but my weekends are completely free. I am available all weekend long, week nights and very early mornings on week days. I am somewhat flexible and will try my best to work with your schedule. I provide only the best and most loving care for your animals. I can crate animals, help train, take pets for long (or short) walks to keep them active, and adapt to any routine you may have!
“We hired Channing to watch our two kitties for a week while we were away. She stopped by for every visit right on schedule and sent adorable photos with a report every time. She eased our worry and took great care of our animals. I would HIGHLY recommend hiring Channing for your next Rover watch! 😊”

About: I was raised in a home where my mom started her pet grooming and boarding business, until it expanded to a separate building. So pets were just part of our family and daily routine! Pets bring me so much joy and love, I would love to share that with yours! I work from home, on my own time, and this is also my first year homeschooling my 2 girls! So I am very flexible and can accommodate to what ever schedule needed! I am open to what is needed! An afternoon stroll, afternoon play time, play dates, overnights, or just snuggles! Any animal time will fill my heart! My rescue cat is truly a blessing and is the kindest, most fun boy. He loves to play with balls & stuffed animals, but also loves to snuggle. I do have a screened in front porch that allows playtime in the fresh air with keeping him safe, so he loves that too (he is missing a back paw so we limit free range time outdoors to his benefit). He is part of the family and is treated like one of us!
About: I have had a total of four dogs my whole life, including two labs, a German Shepherd, and currently, a Belgian Malinois. I also have past work with dogs of all sizes at a dog bakery and grooming facility, and I am very comfortable around all kinds of dogs. I work part-time, so I have plenty of time for drop in visits. My availability does vary by week depending on my work schedule but I am typically available no less than four days a week. I have plenty of experience with both big and small dogs, so whether it is going into your house to feed them, taking them outside, or playing with them, I am very comfortable.
About: I have experience in taking care of the smallest of critters to large beasts. I grew up on multiple acres and had the chance to take care of cats, dogs, horses, chickens, everything and anything. I am a kind soul who will do anything I can for any furry guests. I have watched dogs and cats all over the states. I watch them in my home and also don't mind being mobile if needed. I am currently working from home. I am able to take care of animals needs throughout the day or night. I am able to engage all hours of the day. I am on an .50 acre. I have a very large front yard. That includes some grass and some shell. I am a street away from the celery fields.` I am open to having animals in my house and traveling to others if needed.
About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and truly can’t imagine life without them! I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities — from playful puppies to calm seniors. Over the years, I’ve watched many dogs for family, friends, and neighbors, and they always know they can count on me. I’m reliable, patient, and make sure every pup feels loved, safe, and happy while their owner is away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or snuggles, I treat every dog like my own. 🐾 I’m a full-time hairdresser, but my schedule is flexible and I’m happy to work around it to fit your pet’s needs! I often have mornings available and weekends! If you reach out with your dates or times, I’ll do my best to make it work. I always make sure each pet gets plenty of attention, walks, and care during our time together! Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first with me. I take the time to get to know each dog’s routine, personality, and any special needs so they feel secure and cared for. I follow all instructions carefully, from feeding and medications to walk routes and playtime rules. You can always count on regular updates and photos while you’re away, so you know your pup is happy and safe. I treat every pet as if they were my own and make sure they’re in a calm, loving environment at all times. 🐶💛
About: I have a 11 year old Aussiedoodle who is full of energy, character, and bouncy. We both like to stay active whether that is going for a run or long walk, attend local events, explore new areas, play with toys, continuous enrichment and training. I would like to offer my time to care for dogs when their owners are away on vacation or just need someone to check in on their fur baby. When you leave your fur baby with me he or she will be in the best care and treated as if they were my own. I work remote Monday to Friday with a flexible schedule that I can rearrange or drop in your home between meetings while caring for your dog. I will text you upon arrival and text you upon departure as I am strictly in your home for your dog’s needs, play time, feeding, and walking. I will send you pictures throughout the day and/or when I drop in.
About: I’m a lifelong Floridian with a big heart for dogs. I’ve raised my own two pups, Shiloh and Zeus, and have also helped raise and regularly care for friends’ dogs over the years. Watching them grow up has brought me so much joy. When I’m not caring for pups, you’ll find me spending time with my family, baking in my kitchen, or traveling with my dogs. On weekends, I love making fresh homemade dog treats for my pups—and for the neighborhood dogs too. Nothing makes me happier than creating yummy goodies for the pups who have become part of our extended family, including our newest friend, Teddy, who lives right next door. I treat every dog like they’re my own, and I can’t wait to welcome your pup into our little pack🏡🐾 Our daily schedule is balanced, structured, and full of love. We start each morning with gentle wake-ups, lots of affection, and individual potty breaks. After breakfast, we head out for a morning walk followed by playtime—Shiloh loves tug-of-war and is always ready to share his toys. Midday is our calm, restful period where Zeus enjoys his cozy naps with soft music in the background, and visiting pups can relax or enjoy quiet companionship. In the afternoon, we offer light play, enrichment, or short outings, and sometimes a special treat like a homemade snack or a pup cup. Evenings are peaceful with backyard time, movies, and cuddles before settling into each dog’s normal nighttime routine. Your pup’s usual schedule will always be respected so they feel safe, comfortable, and right at home. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a calm, structured, and loving home where every pup is treated with the same care and attention I give to my own dogs, Shiloh and Zeus. I maintain a clean, pet-friendly environment, follow your dog’s routine closely, and always supervise playtime to ensure everyone feels secure and comfortable. I believe in building trust through clear communication, consistency, and respect for each dog’s individual needs. Whether your pup is relaxing, playing, or settling in for the night, you can have complete peace of mind knowing they’re safe, supported, and truly cared for.

About: Your dog will be given lots of attention and love. I treat all dogs as a part of the family, like "furry children." I find that dogs tend to feel most comfortable in their home environment with a caring human to keep them company. Feed, water, walk, exercise time, play time, medication as needed, and companionship time are included. Feel free to contact me to discuss you and your furry friend's needs while you're gone. I've had dogs of my own my whole life, and I love them just like family. My experience administering medication Yes, very comfortable.
“We can leave our cat Charlie knowing he will receive great care from Alana. She is responsible, always shows up on time and stays and plays with Charlie. She administers medication and is responsive to my concerns. We couldn’t get back due to the hurricane, no worries, Alana just extended her time caring for Charlie . Charlie is a shy cat and is reticent of people outside our family. Alana has built up trust and can easily pet and play with Charlie. A five star rating doesn’t cover her passion or dedication!”


About: Animals aren’t just pets to me. They are individuals with emotions, personalities, and needs that deserve to be understood and respected. You can feel completely at ease knowing their happiness, comfort, and safety are always my top priority. As an animal rights advocate, I approach every animal with genuine compassion and awareness, tailoring my care to who they are, not just what they need on paper. Whether they are energetic, shy, playful, or sensitive, I meet them where they are and give them the attention and love that helps them feel truly safe and seen. You can trust that I will show up consistently, follow routines closely, and create a calm, caring environment while you are away. I do not just watch animals. I connect with them, care for them, and treat them like they matter, because they do. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I structure my schedule to allow consistent time for walks, feeding, check-ins, and companionship. I generally maintain a flexible routine, which allows me to adjust based on each pet’s needs and the specific care plan we agree on. I’m intentional about not overbooking so I can stay attentive and responsive while pets are in my care. My availability can vary slightly week to week, but I prioritize clear communication and planning in advance to ensure expectations are aligned and your pet’s routine is supported as closely as possible. I aim to create a calm, safe, and comfortable environment based on each pet’s routine and personality. Whether I’m in your home or mine, I follow your instructions closely while staying attentive to how your pet is feeling. In your home, I keep things consistent with their normal schedule so they feel secure. In my home, I maintain a clean, low-stress space with close supervision and attention to safety and care. I stay mindful during walks and interactions and avoid anything that could feel overwhelming or risky. I also provide regular updates with photos and check in if anything seems off so we can decide what’s best together. I do not have pets of my own, but there are pets in the home belonging to my roommates. They are well-managed, and I take care to ensure safe, controlled interactions. I can also keep pets fully separated at all times if preferred
