“Wonderful experience. Stephanie is impressive personally, and with my pup, she is hands on and heart in. Her professional background gives her the expertise and capacity to care for others, whether human or canine, in a remarkable way, and her genuine positivity and perspective are refreshing. It's a joy to work with Stephanie.”

“Alyssa was available to take care of my boy at the last minute, and im not sure why she was available to book because she did an amazing job caring for my 75 pound siberian husky. She went above and beyond to ensure his needs were met and provided lots of photo updates to put my mind at rest that everything was going fine.”

“Jason was so great with both dogs. One dog is so scared.. barks, nips. Jason was patient and caring, and soon they were buddies. Jason goes above and keeps house and yard clean. We’ll definitely call on Jason again.”

About: I worked at a dog daycare as a Canine Coach and Lead for almost two years, where I cared for dogs of all sizes, breeds, ages, and energy levels in a fast-paced environment. I also have over 15 years of personal pet care experience, so being around animals has always been a big part of my life. As a USF student with an active lifestyle, I enjoy keeping dogs engaged through walks, playtime, and attention while also making sure they feel safe and comfortable. I’m patient, dependable, and attentive to each dog’s individual needs, whether that means helping energetic puppies burn off energy or giving older dogs a calmer, more relaxed experience. I understand how important trust and communication are when leaving your pet with someone, and I always treat every dog like my own. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine, especially over summer break while I’m home from USF. I have a flexible schedule and enjoy staying active, so dog walking, playtime, and spending time with animals is something I genuinely enjoy doing throughout the week. I do have a few trips planned during the summer, but I always keep my calendar updated and only accept bookings when I know I can fully dedicate my time and attention to each pet. Reliability and communication are very important to me, and I want pet owners to feel confident their dogs are in good hands. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on creating a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment while keeping the pet’s normal routine as consistent as possible. I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully regarding feeding schedules, walks, medications, crate routines, or any special care needs. I have experience working with dogs of different sizes, breeds, personalities, and energy levels from my time working at a dog daycare, so I understand the importance of patience, supervision, and reading animal behavior. I also believe communication and trust are extremely important, so I make sure owners stay updated with messages and photos so they can feel confident their pets are being well cared for while they’re away.
“Jasmine was just amazing! First time using her to care for our Cavapoo Mavrick and we cold not be more happy. She was very communicative during her entire stay with Mavrick. She sent daily updates and pictures. We will use her again and again.”

“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!”

“Mary was very good at taking care of my cat , during our trip to the uk . She was prompt at replying to my texts about how Alfie was adjusting , and kept me informed of his eating patterns . Very happy with her service .”

“Christine was great with our two pups. She was punctual and treated Gracie and Steve as her own. She always sent us pics and text messages. We would hire Christine again. What a great sitter she was. Hire her you won’t be disappointed”


“Patrick is highly attentive, highly communicative and clearly enjoys caring for pets. Our doggies grew very attached to him and he cared for them well. He is highly recommended!”

“Brooke was very kind, positive, and communicated well with texts and photos, which allowed us to enjoy our vacation with peace of mind. The pets were well taken care of.”

“Once again, Megan kept our two Shih Tzus for us. It was such a relief to know she was caring for them. She sent pictures and updates over the weekend. We know they are in good hands when Megan is there.”

“Doug is such a caring person. He took amazing care of our dog and house for more than a week. Our dog absolutely loved him. Moreover he took care of our plants and fish. He also did a very beautiful sketch of our dog. He is so talented! We are highly recommending him!”

“I immediately felt at ease when I met Samouila. It’s difficult to find someone you’re comfortable taking care of your dogs, nevermind staying in your home! But I left feeling completely confident that my dogs and my home was safe. Highly recommended!!”


“Margot is amazing! We would give her 6 stars if we could. She is so good with the boys and she sends us pictures everyday while we are gone. We hope Margot is available every time we go out of town.”

“Alexandra was a good communicator, punctual and above all kind and loving with my dogs. She sent lots of updates with photos and left the house clean. I will definitely hope to use her services again.”
“Renee did a fantastic job house sitting our two cats! We are so thankful we found a reliable sitter who can stay at the house. Everything was perfect when we returned home. I would definitely use Renee again and would highly recommend her!!”
“I couldn’t be happier or more impressed with Sophia. She is awesome! she took wonderful care of our baby and treated her life her own I saw this with the many updates (not just pictures but videos)of their time together I could see how loved Lulu was by their interaction this was our first time leaving our little girl alone for so long and using the service so of course we were a little nervous. When we arrived home our place was left in the same condition we left it I was really great being able to keep Lulu in her comfortable space. Sophia is kind,compassionate, respectful and a wonderful caregiver. We completely trust her and she relieved our stress and anxiety and about leaving so we were able to enjoy our trip to the fullest knowing she was well taken care Lulu has a new Auntie lol! We will be requesting Sophia every time from now on, I would highly recommend her to anyone who wants to feel secure and worry free about their pet care💕”

Mary staying with our pups is such a gift! I can truly relax and enjoy time away knowing they’re in great hands. She cares for them as if they’re her own pets, and our house is exactly as we left it. Maybe even a little bit cleaner 😁This was our second booking - with plenty more to come!

Hi Megan!! I had a fantastic experience with you! 😍 This was my first time with a Dogsitter and I could not have found a better one. I went on a trip with my husband and let my two Weimaraners with her for several days and I felt so at ease. She was great with updates and got the best photos we have of the dogs so far!! I will absolutely book her again on next trips as now we have found our Girl! Thank you, Megan and we will see you soon! 💕💕

Patrick was caring, thoughtful and our dog appeared happy! He sent photos each day and notes of new behaviors (flipping for a belly rub, etc.). Our dog was immediately comfortable with Patrick. Since we picked her up, if we mention Patrick’s name, she starts wagging her tail.

Lydia was an amazing dog sitter! I was heading on vacation and couldn’t bring Chico along, so I turned to Rover and found Lydia. From our very first conversation, I knew she was the perfect fit—and Chico immediately adored her. While I was away, she kept me updated with plenty of pictures and videos, and it was clear he was having a wonderful time. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience!
