“Brianna took amazing care of our cat, Dan, and I will for sure be booking again in the future! She was very attentive, professional, and clearly has a great love for pets of all kinds. I’m glad to know he was in such good hands ❤️”
“This was our first time having Natianna take care of our babies. The kitties took to her right away. She did a great job feeding and cleaning up after them. Her communication was very helpful, and I loved the photos. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a kind, responsible pet sitter. Ty!”
“We are extremely pleased with Jami’s services as caretaker of our older cat and kitten. She is knowledgeable, reliable, kind, and helpful. We appreciate the notes and pictures she left for us. We will book her again when we go out of town in the future.”
“Melanie is great! She took good care of our cat and communicated well with detailed daily updates. I will definitely be booking her again next time we need a cat sitter.”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all breeds and sizes since I was 10 years old. Neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and play with their pets. I’m comfortable with puppies, senior dogs, and pets with special needs. I treat every animal like they’re my own. I currently live in a separate suite on my father’s property. While I don’t have any pets of my own I am an active part of daily care for the family pets and always have been, so this responsibility is not new or burdensome to me. Additionally, my home arrangement affords me the opportunity to give your pet friend undivided care and attention. As a full time student, I have ample time to spend with your pet! Whether it’s going on walks, playtime, or lounging around. All activities fit perfectly into my daily routine. I love being outside, so pets in my care get plenty of fresh air, exercise, and playtime! Whether I’m watching your pet at your home or mine, I always keep things calm, safe, and fun. I closely follow their normal routine and give them the attention they need to feel comfortable and happy. I have my own separate living quarters, which allows for separation from other animals on the property. However, due to my unique living situation, I still have access to other animals for socialization or companionship if that’s something your pet enjoys.
“Katherine has been awesome! This has been super easy and she has taken such great care of my babies, has been on time each visit and sends pictures. Highly recommend her!”
About: I have been around animals my whole life, dating back to my parents’ cats they had before I was born. One of my favorite childhood memories is the day we got our family dog Jaybo when I was in first grade and a great memory of my adulthood is when I got my dog Finn in 2018. In my friend group, I have become someone who friends look to for help with taking care of their pets. I love all dogs and will treat yours as if it is my own pet if you entrust them into my care, be it for walks or drop-in visits. I’m currently working a few different part-time jobs which have flexible schedules so I can meet pretty much whatever visitation demands you would like for your dog and would be happy to give them the love, attention and exercise they need while you’re away. I have a small back patio with some grass and would be sure they are well-exercised with walks around my neighborhood. At home, I have a seven-year hound/shepherd mix named Finn who is friendly with all dogs and would love to play with your dog if they are open to that but is also great at reading energies of other dogs and will give space if that’s what your dog prefers.
“Taylor was excellent with Maggie. She also handled a key issue (totally my fault) calmly when I was definitely not calm since we were literally taking off on a 5.5 hour flight. 100% would recommend and will have Taylor take care of Maggie again!”
“Our fur babies were happy and content when we arrived home, as opposed to stressed. They are very shy with a new person, and the fact that Emily spotted one of our indoor babies tells us that she went out of her way to do a little looking. We will definitely use her services again!”
“Sara was wonderful! She took excellent care of my cats while I was away and I really appreciated the pictures and updates about them. I’ll definitely be a repeat client if she’s available in the future!”
“Heidi was great, I really appreciate the daily checkins and the photos of Milkshake greeting her everyday really made us smile while we were away. Maybe Buster will get used to you next time and come out to say hi (don’t count on it he’s very shy : ) This is way better than when we’re trying to have our teenager care for the cats! No complaints, all compliments thank you for your help Heidi!”
“We had Summer check on our 3 cats while we were out of town. She sent pictures & updates during both her visits. During our meet & greetshe was very polite & professional. We will use her again in the future.”
About: I have cared for dogs my whole life, through both puppy and late adulthood. I have a teachers level of patience to aid in your pets transition to my home and a demeanor that will aid in my introduction to your pets space. I am waiting to start my teaching job in the Fall, so I am available all week for your pet! I look forward to meeting your pets needs; feeding, petting, walks, and rest. My apartment has a nice grassy courtyard for your dog to sniff and play in. I crate my dog when I leave, and I prefer the same with your pet. At night your dog can be crated or roam the apartment at their leisure.
About: I grew up with caring for our family’s dog and babysitting for neighbors’ cats. I love animals and would be happy to care for yours! I have a flexible work schedule and can check in on and/or walk your pet during the day and in evenings. I’m completely available on weekends to pet-sit. While I can’t house pets in my apartment, I’m happy to come to your home to spend quality time with your fur baby, play with them, and take them on walks.
About: I have had the privilege of not only having my own pets since I was little but also taking care of friends fur babies while they are away. I absolutely love spending time with animals, I just unfortunately cannot have any where I currently live. But I do very much wish I could, and I would be more than happy to spread that love to your pets while you are away at work or on a trip!! I am currently a graduate student at FSU but only have two classes. My schedule is pretty open every week day after noon and anytime on the weekend. I live in a small apartment with a roommate so taking care of the pets at my home is a bit more difficult but I have no issue coming over to a client's house to take care of their pets!

Jessica A.
“Jessie is the best pet-sitter I've ever had. She knows all the right questions to ask to make sure both the pet and the owner have the best experience; bonus that she sends updates and pictures of my fur baby while I've been away. Not only is Jessie great with all animals, she is a kind, responsible, and respectful house guest-treating both my pet and my home as her own. If I ever had any questions or wanted an update on how things were going, she promptly responded. Jessie is a wonderful person; while I'm sad that she's no longer close enough to pet-sit or see on a regular basis, I'm so glad that she has the opportunity to share her kindness and skills with other animals and their parents. You couldn't dream of a better person to be with your pet!”
