“Maureen was excellent! We can see why she has so many 5 star reviews. She followed directions precisely, the pups were happy, our house was just how we left it and we will book with Maureen again.”
“If I could give more stars I would! Peyton sat in my home for my elder pup who is very picky and stubborn. I was super anxious to be away from my animals for a long period of time and I could not have done it without her!”
“Jessika was amazing with our girls! She was very attentive and we felt comfortable leaving the girls with her while we were gone for the day. I could tell they were loved and would recommend Jessika to watch my girls anytime!!”
“Dean was absolutely terrific! Our dogs took to him immediately and on his first time watching them, he watched them for two weeks! They’re both over 80 pounds and full of love, and he was able to walk them every day and give us peace of mind while we were out of town! Thank you, Dean and we look forward to working with you again!!”
“Hailee did a great job with our two dogs and cat while we were gone for almost a week. She responded to messages and kept me updated when I checked in. One of my neighbors met her outside with our dogs and said she could tell my babies loved Hailee which just makes my heart happy. When we returned, our house was just as I left it. Thank you for being there for us and our family on pretty short notice when our other sitter fell through. I think we ended up with exactly who we were supposed to.”
“Bethany did an amazing job watching my 2 fur babies. She sent pictures each day, was on time and compliant with everything I asked. I would definitely rebook with her again in the future and recommend her services to pet owners looking for reliable, trusted care.”
“This is my third booking with Alex and my first house sitting from a non family member. I’ve grown comfortable with her during her drop in visits with Kahlani, I couldn’t wait to have her watch the boys too. It was nice for them to be their own home and with a familiar face (to Kahlani). I could tell from all the pictures I received that everybody’s super happy with her company. I highly recommend Alex and will definitely book with her again!!”
“We've used Barbara for drop in visits for over a year now and adore her but this past week we had her housesit for the first time. We came back after 10 days to a clean home and happy (fat!) cats! She provided us with photos every day and stories about what was going on back home. What a relief to just be able to enjoy our vacation, knowing our furkids were safe and loved.”
“Gabriela was communicative and took great care of our pet and was respectful to our home while we took a short vacation. She kept us updated with pictures and asked great questions when we forgot to include a few things in our care instructions, so it was clear she cared a lot about the wellbeing of our pet. Would definitely book her again in the future.”
“Kadence was great! She took great care of Roscoe, respected our requests with house sitting, and communicated well through the whole process. I would definitely work with her again!”
About: For my entire life, I’ve owned dogs and cats. I’ve also had hamsters, birds, and fish. Friends and neighbors have often had me take care of their pets in their homes while they’ve been away on vacation. Being away is only easy for the owners if their furbabies are happy, safe, and well taken care of. This is what I strive for every single time. I am a newly retired teacher after 30 years in the classroom! So my schedule is extremely flexible. I’m looking to stay busy helping to take care of your babies while you are away on vacation or dropping in during the day while you’re working. If your pet were to stay at my house, my husband and I currently have two golden retrievers and an indoor cat. Our yard is fenced in completely. We do have a pool in which the dogs are allowed to swim in. We play lots of fetch, frisbee, and laser chasing in our big back yard. We also use crates when we’re not at home due to our goldens being so young. (Both under 2 years old). We feed our pets twice a day with treats given also. Our kids are adults and out on their own, so all of our attention is given to our dogs and cat! They rule the roost! In your home, I would follow your routine so that your pet would stay happy and healthy. I would also send lots of pictures throughout my time with them so you would feel comfortable knowing they were being well taken care of!
“Linda is amazing! She took such good care of our girl & we came home & could tell Cali had so much love. It was like our trip didn't bother Cali at all! Also, our home looked like nobody had even stayed here. Thank you, Linda! We appreciate you! It is so comforting to know our pup is so well taken care of while we are away.”
About: I am an online student who is with the babies all day long. The house has a large screened in porch for nice days and a large fenced in backyard. I have a background as a former Veterinary Assistant, making me capable of administering insulin and other necessary medications for your special needs babies, I have also worked in day care and grooming. Aside from going on a walk around the neighborhood morning and night, and we have a great fenced in backyard. I also take any dogs with permission from their parents to the Enterprise dog park. This gives them a great deal of enrichment and a great way of burning energy as well as working on socialization. All dogs in my care get plenty of love and exercise. Walks happen every morning and evening, we have a fully fenced in backyard and the dogs get plenty of mental stimulation with our every other day trips to the Enterprise dog park.

“Deb was truly a blessing! Thank you for taking care or our little Logan and our home. We are so grateful for her and truly were able to be at ease knowing that Logan was in great hands.”
“Janelle saved the day for me this time around. I have used her a couple of times before and she has been great. This time I was out of town and the other sitter I hired didn’t show. My poor babies had been home for far too long. I reached out to Janelle and she made it to my home so quick. And covered the weekend. I am so super grateful.”
“Nora is fantastic! We were very fortunate to have her take care of and pet sit our two foster dogs on short notice, and are already booking her again. She made being away so much easier as we knew the girls were in excellent care. Thank you Nora!”

Karol T.
“To Whom it May Concern, I have know and worked with Karol for 23 years teaching Math. Over the years I have seen her amazing gift of compassion not only her own dogs, but mine as well. Karol has always been my “go to person” when I’ve had any kind of issues with my dogs, ie...training, behavioral as well as health and well being. She has always offered very sound advice. She is the ONLY person I would ever trust and allow to watch my dogs if needed. I recently had a stray cat that started to hang out on my back porch. Very thin but very sweet. I have never owned a cat and had no clue what to do. Karol was the first person I called. She was able to set me up with all the supplies and told me what kind of food to get. I was able to keep the cat safe, secure and well fed for the 3 weeks I had her until we were finally able to locate the owner. I honestly would not have been able to do that without Karol’s help and knowledge. She’s quite amazing. If you have any further questions, please feel free to call or text. Sincerely, John”

“Jasmine was wonderful while she was pet-sitting my boxer/pitty mix, Skunk! He’s very high energy and needs a lot of attention and care with meds/special requests and she was very on top of everything! Feedings and the daily schedule all went very smoothly and when I came back my boy was very happy and looked well taken care of! I feel like patience was important here and she definitely aced it, giving my boy the chance to be himself while she was here with him!”

We had a wonderful experience with Jessika! She took excellent care of our cat and dog while we were away. It was such a relief knowing they were in good hands and that she respected our home while staying there. I especially appreciated her regular updates she sent throughout the day, which kept us reassured and connected. We highly recommend her services and will be using her again next time we leave town!
We are so happy with the care Regina gave our senior dog, Oliver. Oliver's dietary issues require patience and flexibility. Regina managed this with careful consideration each day. We greatly appreciated the daily communication via texts and videos. Regina did an excellent job taking care of Oliver and our home as well. She took several steps to ensure professional service before and during her stay in our home with Oliver.

Ashleigh took amazing care of our two babies again while we were on our honeymoon. We had total peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. Even Pars, who usually doesn’t warm up to people easily, ended up loving her! She left our home spotless and even surprised us with a sweet welcome gift. We couldn’t ask for a better sitter and would absolutely trust her again. Highly recommended!
Janelle was wonderful with my dogs and my foster dog! She took Care of them like they were her own babies, giving each one special attention so each felt loved. My dogs loved having her here! She also helped to keep the house cleaned up while she was here. I will definitely hire her again!
Always a pleasure to have Vanessa and Auggie to keep our Lance company. We are so comfortable with her as she cares for our home and Lance as though it is her own. Vanessa stays in touch with plenty of pictures so you know how happy everyone is Her courtesy of her timeline throughout her stay is a HUGE factor. She is soooo professional Vanessa is also very respectful of our home and she keeps it immaculate. Vanessa the best.!!!!
Athena & Rich are the best pet sitters I have ever used! I keep rebooking them because of the love and care they give to my babies while I’m away! They keep me updated without having to ask, they send pictures & videos throughout the stay, they keep my house clean and they are just genuinely kind people. I would recommend them to anyone in the dunedin/clearwater area!
