“Shelby was great at communicating, and she was kind enough to accommodate a change to the booking last minute. I know my cat had a great time because she only cuddles with people she's really comfortable with, and I was happy to see exactly that in the update photos. I'd definitely recommend Shelby!”
“Anne took amazing care of my senior dog while I was away for a weekend. I can tell he had the absolute best time when he was with her. I would highly recommend Anne and definitely plan on booking again 😊”

“This review is LONG overdue since Jordana has been helping us for the past couple of months. We are so thankful for Jordana! Our schedules are all over the place so when we got a puppy we contacted her and she has been a life saver on long days. She is reliable, trustworthy, and always sends us pictures of our pups when she takes them on walks! Definitely book with Jordana, you won’t be disappointed.”
“Kayla was amazing with my dogs during their drop in visits. She was reliable and went above and beyond to make sure my doggies were happy and taken care of. I received updates and I loved the photos during each visit, which put my mind at ease. I could not have asked for a better sitter. I highly recommend Kalya and hope to book her again soon.”

“Drew was AMAZING. We only asked for our dog to be let out and fed. Drew did that AND took him to the park and to play ball. He also sent pictures, and we came back later than expected so Drew took our dog for another walk in the cold and rainy weather. Will book him again!”
About: Thank you for considering me to care for your beloved pets. Animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember, and I truly enjoy caring for them. I’ve studied natural horsemanship and taught both horses and humans how to communicate through trust and understanding. I’m confident and comfortable with a wide variety of animals—including small and large breed dogs, cats, chickens, birds, horses, and even goats! Whether your pets need a quick drop-in visit or feel more comfortable with overnight stays in their own home, I’m here to help. Let me take the worry out of pet care so you can relax and enjoy your time away! I’m retired and now a Pickleball Coach, so I have the time and energy to take care of your babies on a drop in or over night basis!! Our pets are part of our life. They hang with us at home, and often travel with us when we need to leave town. They enjoy their walks, where I walk both dogs together. I respect other people’s way of pet keeping and will follow the instructions you provide.
“Krista did a great job watching our two dogs! Punctual, personable, and wonderful communication with pictures and notes. We would definitely book with her again in the future.”
About: Grew up around all types of animals. Soft spot in my heart for dogs. Very active and can fit dog sitting and walks into my daily routine. I pride myself on communication and respect. I have a quiet home that is a great mix of activity and comfort. Fenced yard for safety and fun for activity! I enjoy going for walks/runs and visiting the parks as well as relaxing around the house. Definitely like to set aside time to make sure the dogs get their time outside! Have a fenced yard and fenced property. Safe and quiet! Great places to run and play - dogs absolutely love the fun and freedom they have.
About: Hello, I’m Liz! I am a second year veterinary student at Oregon State University! I’ve been pet sitting for many years now, caring for animals including dogs and cats. This summer I will be in Pensacola and would love to pet sit! I have quite a bit of animal experience in and out of the vet clinic. I don’t currently have an animal, so I have lots of time to take care of yours! At home I love hiking with my parent’s dog, Millie! At school, I love fostering dogs. Rick was my most recent foster and is the big black and white spotted dog in the photo! If you are looking for a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter or dog walker, I would love to get to know your furry friends! I am comfortable with animals of all ages and sizes. I also have gone through Fear Free training. I just got off of school and am not currently working, so my schedule is very flexible! I will be working part time at a veterinary clinic in August, but am still very available. I am looking to care for your animals in their own home! I feel that pets usually are most comfortable staying in a familiar environment. I am happy to stay over if needed. I am an early bird and I enjoy taking dogs on walks to get some outdoor time!
About: Animal lover! I have cared for, owned, trained, loved on, and worked with dogs of all ages since I was very young. Showing, walking, training, overnights, including sick dogs, seniors, disabled, high maintenance dogs, anxiety ones, and how to help in those times. I was taught at a very young age on the care of dogs, and giving birth of puppies, tube feeding, raising puppies, emotionally charged, helping stressed ones, kenneling training, obedience training, and much more. I can handle all breeds, of all sizes. I have been in difficult stressful situations, with "overly" charged dogs, and know how to handle them as well. I am able to read most behaviors; if one wants to be dominant or be more calm, etc. All the love, care, cuddles, attention, kisses, walks, snacks, car rides, pup cups, movies, relaxation, makes the best Paws-Mahal stay ever!! **I can also take care of snakes, spiders, rabbits, hedgehogs, chickens, horses, ferrets, rats, chinchillas, birds, large and small, guinea pigs, and more! (I have had all these animals and more! 🩵) I am currently not working and stay at home full time. I am able to care for their needs 24/7 while they are in my care. If walks are needed, they will will always be done when its cool outside or not cold in the winter and on their schedule if there is one. Play times, snack times, and feeding times as scheduled. If in their home, follow all needs as necessary. We are laid back and chill, movies, and cuddles! Also have energy for walks, backyard play and excitement. **Last minute need? I can help you. Up-charged rates will apply for short notice. I have a fenced yard with grass, and a puppy pool if needed. Shade is also included with rotation of the sun. :) Plenty of toys inside and out. Fluffy dog beds and consistent clean water. A/C works great as well as a fireplace and heater in winter. If sitting your fur babies in your home, I will follow their schedule and keep their safety first at all times. We have baby gates if needed to keep ones relaxed and less anxiety if needed. Their needs come first to make them comfortable and safe. **If a pet in my care/home incurs any damage to sitter’s property/or said home, there will be a charges accordingly. i.e damage; to interior or exterior of the home caused by incidents such as digging, chewy, urination, upset stomachs/diarrhea, vomit, etc. Cleaning/repair fess will be assessed and charged according to the extent of the damage**

Stacey S.
“I was heading out of town for a week and was in a bind to find someone to watch my 2 for babies. I have a 3 year old German Shepherd and a 10 month old German Short Hair Pointer. My 3yr old is cautious with new people but my puppy barks and gets excited. Both need a little extra attention for different reasons. I started to do my research and took a shot in the dark with Stacey. Not only did she come to the house that day to meet with my furry kids, but her attentiveness and kindness towards my dogs was immeasurable. Especially since my puppy is so high energy and still in training. I felt so comfortable with her and the way she handled the anxiety I had leaving my dogs. When I came to pick up my dogs they both seemed quite tired (well exercised) and happy. I was also surprised to see the both maintained their weight, which was a pleasant surprise considering German Shepard doesn’t like to eat without me there. She had taken them on multiple walks and played with them all throughout my absence. I highly recommend Stacey to watch any animal you care for and will use her services again.”
