Laura is FANTASTIC!!! She coaxed our skittish dog out of his shell and quickly won him over. He settled in to walks, back scratches and chase games faster with Laura than with anyone he’s ever met!! Plus Laura took excellent care of our home and left it spotless.

Excellent care! The pets were happy and healthy and the house was in great shape when we got back from our 4-day trip. I would absolutely book again and recommend to a friend.

Thank you so much for house sitting our 2 dogs! The house was just as we left it, and Kory was wonderful. She kept us updated regularly with photos on our babies while we were out of town for 4 nights. I look forward to calling her in the future next time we need help!

Ashley is an absolute joy! Easy to work with, detailed in prep and action and so conscientious. She treated our cats like they were her own…they adore her. It was as if we were never gone-no interruption in their normal schedules. We are booked again for later this year. Thanks, Ashley!!!

We felt at ease leaving our 3 dogs and additional pets at our home with Alex for the week while we were away. We loved the daily updates and pictures. She also took wonderful care of our home and left it better than it was when we left. We would definitely use her services again.

Lexie was great with our boy! She stayed at our house (and was immaculately clean) - but more importantly took great care of our dog. She sent regular pics and updates and gave us peace of mind. He is an aging dog with specific needs and she took amazing care of him.

Mindy is a true blessing ! Mindy was prompt in our initial discussions and trip planning, then stayed with my two old dogs for 5 days and nights. She maintained her cool when the boys wouldn't eat on the 2nd day, staying in contact and patiently worked through some solutions. By the next morning everyone was back on track and brand new. Mindy sent pictures and updates regularly and made me absolutely confident that my pups were being well cared for. Mindy is the absolute best !!!!! Thank you Mindy !

Heather was amazing with our boy Kody! She played with him bunches and took him out on several walks. She sent us lots of lovely pictures and videos. She was also very accommodating and was willing to get a visitors pass for the weekend so she could watch our boy since we live on the military base. I would highly recommend her 😊 thanks Heather!

About: I’ve had a variety of pets since I was young. I love dogs of all breeds and sizes. I have house sat for many people and I am sure to be detail oriented about what your pet needs. I love having animals around and am happy to open my house to them as well. The more merrier! I live in an apartment complex that has a large yard area right outside my back door. I work close to home with a flexible schedule and can run home multiple times a days for potty breaks and feedings. I am happy to accommodate yours and your animal’s needs. I look forward to playing with and caring for your fur babies. I work full time but I am close to work and can run home if I need to. I am off on weekends and work for the school system so I have a lot of breaks. I will care for your pets as I would my own. I will cater to their needs and make sure they are safe. I have a young child who loves animals as well.

Rebecca is a great caregiver. She’s taken care of our 4 XL bullies twice now and has done an amazing job! 💕 Each time we come home, Our house is as it was when we left it which is an amazing feeling. Not all of our sitters have done that in the past. She sends us photos regularly & I am confident that she does what she says & we are able to appreciate our time away. Thank you & we recommend Rebecca ☺️

Taylor took great care of our golden retriever over the weekend! She sent lots of pictures and was very communicative. She dropped in to care for him as often as we had talked about ahead of time, and he was happy and healthy when we got home! I’m thankful we didn’t have to worry about him while we were away. I would certainly ask her to take care of him again in the future.

About: I recently worked at a kennel and cattery in Australia for the last 2 years where I took care of all different types of cats and dogs — from walking, feeding, medication administration, grooming and of course lots of love and affection. Prior to this I worked on a farm in the outback where I raised the two farm dogs pictured and helped with the cattle and horses. I recently returned to Florida from living abroad for nearly 3 years and am working on starting my own business, however my availability is wide open for all the pet lovin’! My goal is to make your fur baby feel like they are on a holiday while you are away! I know that being away from family can be hard on our pets as well as ourselves so I want to make sure to follow any familiar routines and of course give them as much love and attention as they need. I will also provide regular updates and photos, for your comfort and I am Cat and Dog First Aid Certified in case of any emergencies.

Shelby was so amazing!! She was so attentive, answered our texts right away, and did everything we we asked of her. She left the house very clean and tidy when she left. Gator absolutely loved her, we swear he was sad when we got home because it wasn’t Shelby. Thank you Shelby and we’ll be booking her again soon!

Laura was EXCELLENT! I can’t say enough amazing things about her. I have a very special needs dog who has extreme separation anxiety! She gets stiff and she trembles so bad it breaks my heart to leave her. Laura snuggled her, played with her gave her so much love and gave her so much attention! When we got home, my dog was so relaxed and calm! It was such a pleasure talking to Laura too! She sent me lots of pics and showed me all of the love that my dog was giving her in return. It was so nice knowing I didn’t have to worry about my fur baby while I was gone! Thank you Laura! You are a dream come true!

We booked Brittany last minute after multiple no shows for meet and greets or incorrect availability listed from other sitters. Sometimes things work out for the best as she was amazing with our dogs in an extended overnight stay in our home. She took great care of the dogs, left the house extremely clean and constantly communicated and sent pictures. We will definitely be reaching out to her again when we need help with our babies.
