“Poliana was amazing! This was my first time ever using this app and leaving my fur baby with anyone other than family. She eased my fears, sent so my many updated photos and videos! I’m so pleased with this being my first experience and when I come back into the area I will 100% use her services again! If you are hesitant don’t be she will take great care of your baby! Thank you so much me and Pookie appreciate you dearly!”
“Jared was great! He sent us many pics during Ace’s stay and Ace loved playing with his babies. He was so tired when we got him he went right to bed. So happy we came across Jared. He and his babies are definitely Ace’s new best friends l!!”
“JOURNEY IS AMAZING! Please stop scrolling and looking and book with her. She did an amazing job! I have a 100 pound Doberman Pinscher and not anyone can handle him, and she sure did. He has pretty bad separation anxiety because he is a velcro dog, but she was able to reassure him and make him feel at ease. He went on several walks, ran around in her huge backyard, and I got many pics and videos during the day. Most importantly, he was very happy when I would drop him off, which means he felt safe and cared for. Her house was big and clean, the fenced in yard was perfect, and she lives in a very safe neighborhood. She will forever be my dogsitter when I am in Orlando again. THANK YOU for taking care of my Tank! I was blessed to find you!”
“Great experience all around and would definitely book care for our pets again! Amanda provides exceptional communication, and she is easy to contact before and during the booking. Great experience with pickup and drop-off, very smooth and convenient. My pets clearly enjoy time at Amanda's house, and I feel assured that they are safe and having a great time.”
“Our baby Rachel was there for the first time and we felt that she was well taken care of . Julie is very kind and friendly, and sent us pictures and texts throughout the day. Rachel came home pooped and went to sleep as soon as she got home.”
“Brittany does such a great job with my pup! He loves going to her house for day care and boarding where he gets to run around with her 2 dogs. Brittany does well with sending me photos and letting me know how Kairo is throughout the day which eases my mom guilt when I have to leave him. Brittany is so kind and willing to help if you’re in a pinch! I would recommend her for sure!”
“We have rebooked multiple times with Tess and tim! My husband and I get videos and photos throughout the day of lots of play and snuggles!

About: I've had the utter joy of dog sitting for over 10 years for friends, family, and word of mouth. Caring for dogs brings me much pleasure and I’m able to do so as I work from home. My work is very flexible and I’m able to go for walks on my breaks with your dog. I love dogs of every breed in particular. I have one Pomeranian fur-baby that is pretty shy and will probably want to just stay in her own space. You can rest assured that your fur baby will be comfortable and well loved in my home. I work from home full-time and have a very flexible work load that allows me to give attention to your fur-baby and take them on nice walks I have one small Pomeranian that stays to herself. I live in a quiet safe neighborhood and will take your dog for a nice walk if desired.
About: I been enjoying taking care of my sister puppy for many years. Don’t have one of my own because I like to travel but would love to take care for someone else. I work at night part time, so I have all day. I don’t mind taking the puppy when I am traveling local or on the weekends I have a big fenced yard they could play . I will keep them inside my house and walk them when needed and give lots of of love

About: I will treat your pet like my own, ensuring they are happy, healthy and comfortable while you’re away. Whether you want to enjoy a weekend away or a last minute business trip, you fur babies will be in good hands. I’m retired, so I’ll be home during the day to take care of your pets and give them the attention they need. I’ll keep you updated with photos and videos throughout their stay. I reside in a spacious house with a large backyard and a screen on the porch, providing ample space for your furry companions to roam and play. I have two Yorkies, both 11 years old, who are lap dogs and prefer to sleep most of the day. If your pet requires one-on-one attention, I can keep my pets upstairs or take them to my daughter’s house. If I’m hired for dog walks or drop-ins, I’ll always be mindful of your home and ensure your pets’ safety and comfort.
