About: I have had pets my whole life and have always been the one to call to babysit my friends, family and neighborhood dogs and cats. I currently have a chocolate lab named Daisy and a Rescue lab mix named Buddy! I’ve been trusted to take care of all types of dogs and their needs. I’ve had the opportunity to care for an elderly blind boxer for a few years which required around the clock care. Making sure she was able to navigate through her home safely . I’m very comfortable with giving my undivided attention to any dog and their specific needs. I’m comfortable with taking dogs on long walks, playing with them to get their energy out, and giving any required medications I have just recently moved to Florida due to my husband’s job. In the meantime while I’m on the job hunt I’d love to care for your dog! I just moved to the area due to my husband being in the military and am currently looking for my full time job. So in the meantime when not searching for a job, I have plenty of time to take your dog(s) on walks and give them all the attention they need. I am free anytime of the day to take your dog on walks and or go visit and love on them while you are away. If your dog is staying overnight with me I have a 4 year old chocolate lab named Daisy, who is very playful and friendly. Daisy loves to play with other dogs. So your dog will not only get walk time, but have plenty of play time. Our yard is fenced in but I am always outside watching the dogs play.
“Gordon had an amazing time with Mariah and her family. He played with other dogs, enjoyed time inside and out and came back home loved and exhausted. Highly recommend Mariah and Tim!”

“Regina watched 2 of our boys. One of my poor boys had an upset stomach while with Regina (not of any fault of her’s, it was just sporadic), but she handled it like a champ. She made sure I stayed updated and that my boy stayed hydrated and well. They didn’t treat my other boy any less though, because he made sure he was also receiving enough love. She was great and I’d highly recommend her!”


“Stephanie was absolutely fantastic with our sweet Bleuy! We were in town for the USSSA Baseball World Series and ended up needing a last minute sitter for our Bleuy. She spent a fun day relaxing and had the best time with Stephanie. Would highly recommend Stephanie and would definitely utilize her again should we find ourselves back in the Pensacola area.”

“This was our first time using Rover & Sami was great with Bridget! She took the extra time to update me multiple times on how she was doing during her visit and sending photos. Bridget got a walk and enjoyed her time visiting with her new friends. I would highly recommend using Sami if you are considering it!”

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, from playful puppies who need training reinforcement to senior pets who require patience and gentle handling. As a veteran, I bring reliability, attention to detail, and calm leadership that animals naturally respond to. I’m comfortable administering basic medications, supporting senior dogs with mobility challenges, and keeping up with energetic pups who need exercise and structure. What sets me apart is consistency—you can count on me to be on time, communicate clearly, and treat every pet like family. ** I have exclusive boarding rates available if you require no other dogs in the home! Ask about them :) happy to help! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I structure my days so I’m available for morning walks, midday drop-ins, and evening care. I'm home constantly, which allows me to focus on the needs of each pet. Whether it’s regular daily walks, weekend sitting, or last-minute bookings, I ensure pets receive consistent attention and care when their families are unable to be there. Safety and trust come first in every home I step into. In a client’s home, I respect their space and routines while making sure pets feel comfortable and cared for. I follow all instructions closely, from feeding schedules to walk routes, and I keep a close eye on doors, gates, and leashes to ensure pets stay safe. I provide plenty of positive attention, consistent communication with updates and photos, and a calm presence that helps pets feel secure. My goal is to give every family peace of mind knowing their pets are safe, happy, and treated like my own.
About: Trish and Matt have over 20 years of experience caring for dogs through pet sitting, boarding, and animal rescue. Over the years, we’ve cared for dogs of all ages, sizes, personalities, and needs, and our goal has always been simple: make every dog in our care feel like part of the family. Through my experience in animal rescue, I’ve also worked extensively with dogs who have behavioral challenges and medical conditions. I’m comfortable caring for dogs who may need a little extra patience, understanding, or specialized attention, and I have experience administering medications both orally and by injection. We understand how important it is to know your dog is safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for while you’re away. When your dog stays with us, they aren’t just another boarding client — they become part of our family while they’re here. ❤️🐾 Pet care is already a big part of our everyday routine. With more than 20 years of experience in boarding and animal rescue, our days naturally revolve around caring for dogs. We’re home much of the time, which allows us to provide plenty of individual attention, regular potty breaks, feeding on each dog’s normal schedule, playtime, and lots of love. We structure our routine around the dogs in our care so they can feel comfortable, relaxed, and at home while their family is away. Our number one priority is always safety, comfort, and individual attention. We have a securely fenced yard, and dogs are given their own scheduled outdoor and exercise time. We are always outside supervising when dogs are in the yard and never leave them outside unattended. We provide multiple feeding times each day based on each dog’s normal routine, along with treats throughout the day. Each night, we tuck everyone in with a special bedtime treat. ❤️ We provide food, bowls, blankets, beds, and other necessities to help make their stay as comfortable as possible, although families are always welcome to bring their dog’s favorite things from home. Most importantly, we take the time to learn each dog’s personality and needs. Our goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, home-like environment where every dog is cared for as if they were our own. 🐾
“Tracy was amazing! My pup loved staying with her and I'm going to make it a regular thing. Thank you for the care and compassion you showed my Fiona. Definitely recommend Tracy she treated my pup like her own.”

“Kyle and Laura were great with my puppy! This was the first time I’ve been away from her since I brought her home and I felt at ease the whole time. Lots of picture updates, they are both very sweet & you can tell they have a love for animals. I will definitely use them when I need a sitter in the future.”

“Daniel and his pup crew were good to Nico and how could I tell, when we arrived home, he drank water and took a long nap. A true sign of getting exercise & excitement. I'll definitely be taking my little bud over.”

“Laura you’re amazing! Thank you so much for agreeing to watch Bella at short notice. We were in the area for Labor Day Weekend, and didn’t find out until we got here that dogs weren’t allowed on beach we wanted to visit. I’m so grateful for you, and for taking care of our Bella. Thank you, thank you, thank you!”

“Maria is just wonderful to your fur baby. Hunter was so happy to meet her and her ‘kid’. He played the whole day and learned how to go up/down steps. Maria has a magic way of communicating to your dog. I don’t think he wanted to leave do to the great time he had 😀. He’ll be back!”

“Hannah is very sweet. She responds to messages and answers questions quickly. Ranger was happy when I picked him up and seemed to have had a great time. He came home, ate dinner, and laid on the couch. Ranger will definitely be back, if Hannah will allow 🐾😁”

Chandler was great with communication from first contact to schedule until I picked Clyde up. The pictures he sent Clyde looked happy and seemed to be having a good time(especially when he got to go for a ride!). When I picked Clyde up he seemed like he had a good time. I will be booking with Chandler again and would recommend him to anyone.

Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
