“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!”
“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.”
“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!!”
“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!!”
“Melinda is fantastic. I had her house sit and care for my high energy dog and cat that needs meds 2x/day for a full week. She asked plenty of questions to be sure she knew their needs along with the household schedule. We got a detailed daily summary with plenty of pictures. It was obvious that my pets were having their typical day in our absence. My house was immaculate and my pets were happy and healthy upon our return. I recommend Melinda highly.”
“Megan is wonderful with our dog. She is punctual, professional and caring. Megan is always available for any questions and sent us videos during her stay. She is respectful of our home as well”
About: Hi! I’m Tyler, and I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes—from tiny, cuddly King Charles Cavalier puppies to big, playful Great Danes and everything in between. Whether your pup is full of energy or needs gentle care, I treat every dog like my own with plenty of love, attention, and outdoor fun. I understand the unique needs of different breeds and ages, and I’m here to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away! I currently work in a role that requires part-time travel—typically around seven days per month, with some variation depending on the month. I have my full travel schedule through May 2026, which allows me to plan ahead and take on additional opportunities during the time I'm not traveling. My availability is otherwise flexible, and I’m looking to utilize that open time effectively. I provide compassionate, reliable in-home pet care with a strong respect for your space and boundaries. With a background in veterinary assisting through the Vet Tech program at Tarpon High School, I’m experienced in handling pets with care, patience, and attention to detail. I follow your pet’s routine closely—feeding, exercise, medication, and special needs—and treat your home with the utmost respect, accessing only what’s necessary and leaving everything as I found it. My goal is to ensure your pets feel safe and loved while giving you complete peace of mind.
“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!!”
“Absolutely amazing!!!! She was very loving to our two babies! She snuggles and plays with them as well as makes sure they eat their meals and take prescribed medications. I 100% recommend her!!! It’s great to go on vacation and not worry. So many pictures and videos. Much appreciated!!!”

About: I’ve taken care of many different dogs and cats. I take pride in giving them every bit of love that I can and doing what is needed for the specific animals. Also, I will catch cute pictures of them to share with you. Dog Walking and Pet Sitting is my full time job right now. I’m available during the the day time to take your puppy out on a walk or check in on your kitties. I am here to do what is needed for your pet(s) and will follow all instructions you give. I find it best to have written instructions to look back on and have you show exactly how to care for your pet.

This was my first time ever using a dog sitter, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience! Lindsey was absolutely amazing — her communication was top-notch and she consistently sent updates and photos that kept me at ease the entire time. I was nervous at first, but Lindsey truly made me feel so comfortable and confident that my fur baby was in great hands. I’m beyond grateful for the love and care she showed. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate sitter! 🐶❤️
We can’t thank Dylan enough for watching our fur babies. He was very attentive to them and was in constant communication with us. We received photos and updates everyday from him of dogs! I’ve always been very hesitant to leave my dogs behind to go on a trip but Dylan relieved all that worry! He will be our go to from now on to watch our babies! If you are anything like me and super protective over your dogs, I highly recommend Dylan!
