Ryan was an absolute awesome sitter for our little Luna. He was very accommodating and came a little early per our request to bond with Luna and give her time to feel comfortable around him. She seemed very comfortable and happy and wanting to play. Ryan was very respectful and helped also keep things tidy , bringing in our packages and mail. We definitely will book with Ryan again for our next trip.

About: I have taken care of all kinds of dogs and cats for the past 8 years. Including some who needed extra care. I’m happy to help anyone in need and make sure their pets get all my love and attention. I’m currently a nursing student at the University of Tampa and am flexible with afternoons/mornings during the week. I am also available all day Friday-Sunday. I am experienced with dogs who need to be leashed, have an electric fence in the backyard or that come to when called. I have given baths/groomed, walks, runs, playing catch and cuddles.

About: I’m a reliable, attentive pet sitter who treats every animal with patience and care. I focus on keeping pets comfortable by sticking closely to their routines and giving them plenty of attention while you’re away. I’m also highly responsive and happy to send regular updates so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands! I work as a nanny during the day on weekdays, so I’m usually available for pet care after about 5-6pm. On weekends I have much more flexibility and am available for boarding and extended care. I love staying active and spending time outside, so I’m always happy to take dogs on walks and make sure they get plenty of playtime and attention. I focus on making sure pets feel comfortable in their familiar environment. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications if needed, and any specific routines the pet is used to. I also make sure pets get plenty of attention, playtime, and companionship while their family is away. For me, it’s a joy to care for pets so I take the time to learn each pet’s personality, energy level, and any special needs so I can care for them in the way that works best for them!

Kailee was so lovely to work with- one of my pups is very shy and she came out for Kailee (instead of hiding) faster than she’s ever come out for any sitter before. I knew my girls were in great hands. She sent pictures regularly to keep me up to date with them, took them for walks and was very sweet to them. I could tell they had been very well cared for while I was away. She also left my house so clean and in perfect condition. Can’t recommend her enough and already booked her for a second house sitting booking! Thank you Kailee

Julia and Eric are absolutely incredible, and we’d give them 10 stars if we could. After a near-death experience at a boarding facility, I haven’t left my dog with anyone other than family for the last 2 years. My family is 4-6 hours away though, and I needed to find someone local I could rely on. Julia and Eric sent routine updates with lots of videos of everything they were up to with my dog, and he was genuinely so happy and upbeat in all of them (and was actually eating his food too!). I couldn’t have felt more at ease while being away. They’ll 100% be our new go-to sitters!
