“Laura was amazing and our little puppy loves her she communicated with us by sending videos pictures and messages during our puppy’s entire stay. I would recommend her if you would like someone that is gentle, compassionate, and professional with your pet.”


About: Growing up my parents always had atleast 4 dogs and we loved them so deeply and took such good care of them that they all became a member of our family and were treated like they were one of us … I was always taking care of new puppies and neighbors pets when they went out of town and since I can’t convince my husband to let me get another dog I decided the next best thing would be to sit for other peoples animals!! I currently work a part time job . I wake up around 5 and let the dogs out to go potty then bring them in and give them time to eat and drink . They get walked one more time before I head out to work and then go into the kennel if they aren’t trained . As soon as I get home they go outside to go potty and I check their food and water to make sure they have plenty . For the rest of the evening they get walked a few more times and taken to the dog park atleast once before bed. I have a kennel for one extra large dog and I walk them through my neighborhood to the dog park that is exclusive for the residents there. There is not usually anyone there and if there happens to be a dog there that doesn’t seem the friendliest there is a smaller fenced off area for the babies or dogs that aren’t as friendly. I have an extra large tub incase baths are needed and a large dog bed for them to get cozy in after a long day!

About: l've had over 10 dogs throughout my life and I currently have 4 (2 at each of my parents houses). I also have a cat and I love them all so much! I've always been an avid animal lover and would love to meet your pets and help take care of them! I can board them at my home if they are dog and cat friendly and I can also come to your home to care for them! I am at home full time and am currently taking a gap between school so 1 am fully capable of giving your pet the care and love it needs 24/7 while you are away! I live in a large neighborhood with sidewalks and lots of grass which is great for walking your pup and I have a large backyard for your animals to play in!! I am able to do full day care all days! I currently am taking a break from work and schooling so I can take care of you dog or cat at any time any day of the week! I can walk you pup, do drop in visits, overnight care, or anything needed! (my profile says my house has 4 dogs but the house I board any pets at only has 2! my other two dogs live with my mom!) I have no preference between boarding and sitting! I live in a private residential home with lots of room for your pet to play and/or relax! I have a large, fenced yard for them to play in as well. I have two dogs and a cat, all of which are very friendly! My two dogs are large dogs, (Golden Retriever and Bernese Mountain Dog) so if your pet is afraid of large dogs and/or doesn't like high energy dogs, they may not enjoy their stay! They are very sweet and don't fight with other dogs unless provoked and my Bernese is very skittish. Some animals could get overwhelmed from their high energy behavior. They calm down fairly quickly (10-20 minutes) then become very relaxed and lazy dogs. My cat is very sweet and loves dogs as well. She was raised by a Collie and loves to play with dogs if they let her. Your pet can sleep in a kennel if that's preferred but I'm also perfectly fine with them sleeping and staying around the house at all times if you prefer that as well!

About: I’ve been caring for and raising dogs and puppies since 2017. As an experienced dog owner and breeder, I have hands-on experience caring for dogs of different ages, personalities, and needs—from young puppies to adult dogs. I understand how important it is to provide pets with love, patience, attention, exercise, and a safe environment. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I truly connect with them. I honestly feel more at home around animals than anything else! I treat every dog in my care like they are part of my own family and will always make sure they feel loved, comfortable, and safe. Whether your pet needs playtime, companionship, feeding, walks, or extra attention, I would love to help care for them while you’re away. ❤️🐾 I stay home full-time with my daughter, which allows me to provide pets with plenty of attention, supervision, and care throughout the day. I have years of experience caring for dogs and puppies and am home most of the time, except for occasional quick errands. Your pet will never be left alone for long and will receive plenty of love, playtime, potty breaks, and attention throughout the day. I provide a clean, safe, and loving home environment for every pet in my care. I have a fenced yard where dogs can safely enjoy supervised outdoor time and play. I have everything needed to care for dogs comfortably, including crates if needed. With years of experience caring for and raising dogs and puppies, I understand the importance of safety, routines, cleanliness, and giving each pet the individual attention they need. Your pet will be treated like part of my family while they are in my care.
“My Basset seems to love it here. This time he seemed so happy when we pulled up to the house. He loves to get to cuddle while he's there. She always sends some photos too so I can see my baby.”

“Katelyn is absolutely wonderful! She gave us frequent updates, photos, videos throughout our pups’ stay. I haven’t felt so stress free during a vacation knowing our pups were in good hands. Even was a little nervous that they wouldn’t want to come back home with us! Lol. We also had quite a bit of notes/instructions for our dogs, one of which had ACL surgery not too long ago, that she seemed to follow well. So happy I found Katelyn and will definitely be using her services again and again.”

“Terwrin is awesome! She cared for my Dougie as if he were her own fur-baby! He wasn’t stressed when I picked him up! It is comforting to know he is being so well treated when we have to leave him. I hope to leave him with her next time we need a sitter!”

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. 🐾
“100% recommend Abby she was so friendly and understanding. I was in the process of moving from swfl to Texas and Pensacola was my first stop to rest . Abby kept me updated on my fur baby. Also providing photos . She is the best if you need a pet sitter or boarding I would recommend her . Thank you abby”

“I highly recommend Tracy if you're looking for someone to love and care for your for fur baby. This was my very first stay away from my Chewie, and I expressed to Tracy how hard it was for me. So, from our very first meet and greet, she made me feel at ease and worry free. She has 2 babies of her own, and they got along like new best friends. Tracy sent me daily updates with pictures. I couldn't have found anyone better. I will definitely be using Tracy again in the future....if she'll have my Chewie ! Thank you again Tracy for your professionalism, attention to details (my note lol), patience, kindness to me and my husband, and most importantly your love and care for our Chewie.”

“This was a short notice and quick stay for our Kiba but Madison made him feel very welcome! She sent pictures and they went on walks to get some of his energy out before bedtime! She was great taking care of our boy”

About: I bring unique expertise in managing canine health challenges, having successfully cared for my own dog with epilepsy. This experience has honed my ability to remain calm under pressure, the ability to administer medications to animals, and also adapt my approach to ensure the well-being of each furry friend I walk. I also have always taken care for my own as well as friends/families dogs growing up so I am well versed with many different breeds. I have a very open schedule that allows me to integrate pet care into my daily routine. Whether you need someone during a day or night shift, I am available. I prioritize and adapt my time to meet the specific needs of my own dog, which has given me the drive to want to care for others animals as well. This flexibility enables me to provide reliable and comprehensive pet care services. If I am providing in-home pet care, I have a safe and comfortable environment. This includes regular feeding, refreshing water, and maintaining a clean living space. I have a house and large backyard for your doggo to run around in. Exercise and playtime are tailored to the pet's needs. For client homes, I ensure to follow their specific care instructions meticulously, maintaining consistency and offering personalized attention to each furry companion.
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and genuinely love spending time with them! I especially enjoy dog walking and making sure every pup gets the exercise, attention, and outdoor time they need. I’m comfortable walking dogs of different sizes, ages, and energy levels, whether they need a relaxed stroll or a longer walk to burn off some energy. I’m dependable, attentive, and will always treat your dog like they’re my own. I’m also happy to provide updates and photos so you know your pup is happy and safe! My schedule is pretty flexible, so I have plenty of time throughout the week for walks and drop ins! I’m available most mornings, afternoons, and evenings and I’m happy to work around your dog’s normal routine. I can also do regular weekly walks or just help out whenever you need me. Your dog’s safety and comfort will always be my priority. I’ll follow any instructions you provide, keep your pup securely leashed during walks, and pay close attention to their surroundings and behavior. I’m respectful of every client’s home and will make sure your dog gets plenty of attention, exercise, and care while they’re with me.
About: I’ve had or watched every size dog from a mini wiener dog to an Italian mastiff and currently have 4 pups of my own including the puppy from two of them so I have the experience raising a puppy from birth which was quite the journey but if it happens again I will be much more prepared. Active Air Force but when I’m here I work 8 hours a day Monday to Friday and I’m off on the weekend currently working overnight 11 to 7 so anytime outside of that I am free I live in a very quiet walkable area, my dog is super friendly and loves making new friends. Cageless home because it’s their home as much as it is ours. Water stays full, potty breaks every couple hours or anytime I am about to leave the house.
About: I’ve been caring for animals for about six years and have experience with dogs, cats, and other pets. I’ve helped friends, family, and neighbors with pet sitting, feeding, walks, playtime, and daily care. I’m comfortable caring for pets with different personalities and needs, from energetic young animals to older pets that need a little extra attention. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and always do my best to make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared for while their owners are away. My schedule is very flexible and I am generally available at most times. I can accommodate morning, afternoon, evening, and last minute bookings whenever needed. I focus on clear communication, consistent routines, and attentive care so pets feel comfortable and owners feel confident, informed, and reassured while they are away.

Writing Majorca was amazing with Roxie! Especially during the hurricane, I was so grateful to have someone I could trust to take such good care of her. Majorca was kind, attentive, and kept me updated throughout Roxie’s stay, which gave me so much peace of mind. I also loved that Roxie got to socialize and play with other dogs. When she came home, she seemed happier and was even behaving better! (She’s still very much a puppy) 😂🐾 It was clear that she received lots of love, attention, and care. I truly appreciate Majorca for taking such wonderful care of Roxie during a stressful time. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and reliable dog sitter!

Emily is wonderful because she has a peaceful and calm demeanor and she truly cares for your pet. I will definitely bring my dog, who is 14.5 years old, back to Emily to take care of her, when I come back for vacation. Thank you, Emily, for your outstanding care and support.

Benae spoiled our babies! She took exceptional care of them to include our older dog with extra needs. She shared daily updates and pictures. Our comfort with her helped us enjoy our time away without worry. We will definitely use her services again the next time we have to travel without our fur children!

Nicole was great to work with. Constant communication from her and I felt my girls were well taken care of and pretty sure they want to go back. She answered super quickly for the initial reservation and I always felt like my girls had her undivided attention. I will be using her again if she will let me.

Stephen took the very best care of our boy, Fred, while we were out of town for a couple weeks! Stephen kept Fred very active, gave us wonderful updates each day about how Fred was doing, and best of all, he gave Fred a happy, peaceful, loving home while we were away. Stephen is the very best, and we know we will use his dogsitting services again.
