Viktoria and her family were very welcoming to Allie. She seemed to fit right in! They had plenty of space for her to explore and I’m sure she enjoyed her stay. Will definitely use her again.

Jewell is a true jewel!! My nervous pup flourished with her and her sweet pups. My dog is a singlet and isn’t around dogs a lot !Jewell’s pups welcomed her into their home and became great friends with my pup. I appreciate the socialization she received while staying with Jewell. We will be using her again. She is amazing, her home setup is perfect. Jewell is fantastic for nervous dogs. Highly recommended!

We have volunteered, interned, and worked in animal facilities such as the Humane Society of Sarasota County, Animal Clinic of the HSSC, Mote Marine Laboratory & Aquarium, Englewood Animal Health Center, and Cat Depot.

We have a strong passion for great work and that allows us to be the best we can be for animals. Alexis and I enjoy being outdoors and around animals. So long walks, runs, and playtime would be an absolute blast. Dogs, cats, reptiles, small mammals, fish, birds, insects, we love them all! Please contact us if you any questions and what else we can do for you and your pet! Thank you for taking the time to consider us. Alexis and I can care for your dog daily. We have availability Monday through Sunday. There's open spots for the morning, afternoon, and evening. Whether it's early morning or late evening we can do it! As a duo it's great to have an extra pair of eyes and hands to double check and make sure everything's safe and secure. Your pets safety is top priority!

Leslie was so thoughtful and attentive with our pug. She kept us updated throughout the stay and sent lots of photos. He got to spend the weekend playing in the yard with her sweet pug Patrick and we could not be happier to know he was in good hands. Will definitely book her again in the future and recommend to those looking for sitter!

Deborah did a fantastic job! She communicated to advise if all was going well. Was very professional and in my opinion, is an expert in dog sitting. She has several dogs and is well equipped to manage a dog. Was pleasantly surprised how easy the process was and how my Lola enjoyed the stay. Great experience and will definitely use her service again!!

My dog had an amazing experience with Tina and her dog, Tahoe. I will 100% be bringing my pup over again for boarding. Tina is a great communicator who made it very easy to meet her and book. She clearly knows dogs and dog behavior well. Tahoe is a sweet dog, who got along so well with mine. I felt very comfortable leaving my pup for the first time because her house is set up well for animals, and she has a great routine for dogs set up. Tina sent regular messages, so I knew my dog was doing great. I was so happy with her service. I would heartily recommend her to anyone.

Lisa and Matt are wonderful people with a beautiful fenced-in yard and a house that is set up very well for pet boarding. They have pets of their own, so our fur babies have new friends to play with! They also make a point of not boarding multiple owners' pets at the same time without asking permission first. We plan to continue utilizing their services.

Giselle had a great time with Charlotte and her other pup guests. Charlotte kept me updated on how my little girl was doing along with pictures everyday. Was even able to keep my pup calm and comfortable during the fireworks. I really appreciate the great care and love she gave my little one. I plan on contacting Charlotte through Rover again for Giselle's care for any future trips!

Delia is the sweetest! She is very responsive from booking through the stay, she made me feel at ease with quick replies and pictures. I felt my dog was with someone who adored almost as much as I do. Delia is very responsible. Poor Delia was also incredible when my older pup lost a tooth, she alerted me immediately, brought her to my vet, followed up with them ensuring they triple checked to make sure she was alright, and then was there for my pet for everything she needed, all while communicating with me. She gave my dog the love and care that we all would hope for our pets when we are not there. After a tough travel morning, Delia was flexible when we got home earlier than expected and even brought our girl home. I appreciate the level of care and look forward to booking with her again soon!
