“Anas and Tate were amazing with our doodle puppy, Toni, during our trip to Gainesville for UF graduation. After a last-minute cancellation from our original sitter, we were stressed—but meeting Anas put us completely at ease. He was kind, professional, and kept us updated with photos and videos. Toni clearly had a great time! We’re so grateful and highly recommend them to anyone needing a caring, reliable sitter.”


“My dog had a great stay with Adam. This was her second stay, and she was so excited to see him and both his dogs again. He even went out of his way to plan a play date between my dog and a dog friend she made on her first visit. My dog will continue to stay with Adam when she needs a sitter!”


“Truly appreciate elizabeth. She was super welcoming and i liked how calm my dogs were as soon as they walked in. I loved that she had other dogs that were close in size to mine. I would definitely book again!!!!”


“Absolutely wonderful people! I had just adopted my dog a few days prior and needed to find him a last minute sitter and they were perfect for him! Very thorough and quick communicators. They sent pictures if I asked for them and even allowed him some pool time which I’m so grateful for, especially in this summer heat. I even think they helped with his crate training again because he’s not as afraid of it since we’ve gotten home. Overall, Merlin clearly enjoyed his time with them and I’m so grateful. Thank you so so much! I would 100% book again and highly suggest others do as well.”


“We had a last minute trip and Lauren was able to accommodate without hesitation. Great constant communication/pics made us feel okay leaving our lab for his first overnight stays. Would book again, thank you Lauren!”


“Mona is so sweet and kind. Took excellent care of our 2 senior dogs. Her home is set up perfectly for pets. The dogs had a very large front room, the kitchen, and the entire backyard to themselves. The backyard was impressive to say the least. Lots of places to explore and lounge. Meals, meds, and routines were welcomed and she made sure to keep them on schedule. Drop off and pick up were super easy. Knowing our 2 senior dogs are hanging out with 2 very loving humans in a home setting with all their favorite toys and dog bed is so incredibly comforting. We were sent updates and photos everyday of our 2, it was nice to see how they were doing. Highly recommend Mona to watch your fur babies!!!”


“She is incredibly kind and thoughtful. It was our first time being away from our dog, so we had a lot of worries. But thanks to her, we were able to enjoy our trip with peace of mind. She took great care of our dog and always responded quickly, which was very reassuring. She also sent us photos of our dog every day, which made us feel connected. I'm truly grateful we found her.”


“Michelle is the best! We are incredibly particular about who we entrust with taking care of our precious fur baby, and we felt confident and safe with Michelle from the get-go. She was very proactive about learning our dog’s habits, schedule, and temperament so that she could ensure to make things as comfortable for her as possible, while also providing a fun vacation. We loved getting updates with pictures and videos throughout her stay, and our dog seemed very happy. Would definitely board with Michelle again, and couldn’t recommend her more highly!”


“I have used Angelie's services twice now and will be going with her again for our next trip. I know my dogs are in good hands with someone who loves and knows them!”

“I love that they always responded in a timely manor, their home was pet friendly and Riley had a blast. I really appreciated all the check-in’s and photos. I will definitely be rebooking when it’s needed!!!!”


“Shernee and Jason were great with my puppies x 2. I used her service while passing thru Gainesville, Florida. I am glad they accept my request to take care of puppies. They were attentive, pleasant, helpful, serviceful, loving and energetic with my needy dogs. Puppy Whippets are calm, energetic, picky, and unpredictable all at the same time. They were treated well and they came to me happy. They were serve breakfast/lunch and they took bed naps. I have pictures to prove it since the pet sitters were amazingly good to send me pictures thru out the time they were there. I feel my dogs were safe and happy. I appreciate that they took my dogs care seriously and that they put so much love and energy from their heart. I will definitely use them again if I am in that area. Thank you!!”


About: When i started with my dog, i understood that one of the things that pets appreciate the most is walks and having their hair brushed.

I am available to offer walks every day in the mornings from 7am and in the evenings from 7:30 pm. It is possible to care for pets in your own home. before validations I will take care of their feeding and hydration and Of course the play

“Joshua and Lesley exceeded our expectations. This is the first time we’ve tried pet sitting outside of a boarding. As a family with a very loving but energetic dog we were skeptical if someone would give our pet the care and patience he needs. Joshua and Lesley put our minds at ease since the first day we met them. They are passionately driven professionals and have gained our trust for future sitting. Quick response times, regular updates and lots of pictures. This is the team to get. Your dog will love them.”


“Nina watched my dog Steve during Christmas this year. She did so amazing with him. He is a very energetic dog who needs a ton of attention and play time. Nina went above and beyond to make sure he was out on long walks multiple times a day, in her yard playing, and playing with her sweet puppy! She is also amazing with keeping us updated with pictures and videos. I am so relieved to have found someone that I finally trust with my fur baby! We will 100000% be boarding him with Nina again in the future!!!”


About: I stay at home all day to provide care for your pet(s) and provide them as much love and care as they receive at home. I stay home everyday with my 3 year old daughter. I have 2 dogs and a cat that all get along. I’m able to provide plenty of potty breaks and walks. I have a fenced in yard with room to run around and play with shade and water. Inside the home pets are allowed on the furniture and beds for plenty of cuddles.
