“My dogs have a lot of energy and require several walks. Shawnee was very punctual. Had excellent communication. Handled my dog barking at her well. And, took them on nice long walks. Would use her again.”


“My dog and I were very happy with Christian. Christian is awesome, very attentive and caring. He kept me updated throughout the day with comments, photos and videos. I felt very comfortable leaving my Scooby with Christian. I will definitely hire him again. Thank you for taking such good care of my Scooby prince.”



“Mikayla did an outstanding job taking care of our three Boxer dogs! She was responsible, thoughtful, kind and dependable. We will absolutely use her again to take of our pets. We came home to a clean home and happy dogs after a week in Cancun. We had such peace of mind knowing Mikayla was taking great care of our dogs! Thank you, Mikayla!”


About: I have cared for dogs for over 30 years. Mine, friends etc. I have watched dogs, cats, lizards, bunnies. Please no snakes. No issue with multiple animals. This is my full time job. If I have availability I can help you. I am open for last minute bookings because I don’t have another job. I only care for dogs in the clients home. If a situation arose where I needed to care for a dog in my home I have a fully fenced large back yard and a crate for them to feel comfortable in.


“KENDRA IS AMAZING!!! She has great people, pet, and communication skills! Her and her husband are great company- all of us love them! 🦔🐶 10/10 would recommend booking with Kendra!”


About: I’ve been caring for pets since I was a kid—everything from German Shepherds and Pit Bulls to Chihuahuas and Great Danes. I’ve administered medicine, handled special feeding routines, and taken care of elderly animals with extra needs. I’ve also pet-sat for family friends, neighbors, and multiple households over the years. I currently live with cats I care for full-time, and I’m happy to help with additional tasks like watering plants, taking out litter, or feeding fish. I’m great at following specific instructions and keeping pets happy and healthy. I’m currently between jobs and going back to school in the fall, which means I have full availability all summer long. My schedule is extremely flexible, and I’m happy to accommodate your pet-sitting needs—whether that’s regular check-ins, overnights, or last-minute help. I live locally in Mulberry and often help out at my family’s pharmacy, but otherwise my time is yours! I prioritize creating a calm, clean, and secure environment. I always follow the pet’s routine to keep things consistent—mealtimes, walks, medications, and even preferred toys or napping spots. I’m respectful of the client’s space and clear about communication, sending regular updates and checking in if anything seems off. I make sure pets feel safe by being patient, affectionate, and attentive to their needs—whether that’s quiet time for a nervous cat or extra play for an energetic pup. Trust is everything, and I take that seriously from day one.

About: Pets are like family. No two ways about it!! They give us their undivided attention. Loyalty and love. So why, shouldn’t we do the same? Being avid animal lovers, nothing would make us more happier to give your pet a comfortable stay - a home away from home with loads of love, fun and pampering so u can go ahead and enjoy a day of work or holiday being assured that your fur baby is being well looked after!! I’m currently not working! I’ll have time to fit your fur baby in my agenda. Also weekends depending on schedule most likely open looking forward to hearing from you. I have a beautiful chocolate Labrador named Isabella she is so excited to meet new friends to play in our dog park we also take walks in are beautiful lake view apartment. I’m usually available most of the time, I’m a stay at home mom and wife so I’m usually always with my fur baby and my cats. I have a screened in porch so they can enjoy some sunshine ☀️ I also have a gate just in case we have a runner.

“Felicia was so great watching our dog! She offered to do a meet and greet beforehand which was really helpful in making me more comfortable with having her in our home and seeing that our dog was okay with her. Felicia took pictures and some videos everyday, and sent them to us. She took Abby on a few hikes/walks and I really appreciated her involvement in doing that. I totally recommend Felicia! We’ll book her again!”


“Alison cared for my senior diabetic dog, staying in our home for a week while we were out of the country. He has multiple medical needs, including twice daily insulin injections and 3 types of eye drops twice/day. She also had to deal with his reluctant appetite and fluctuating blood sugar. In other words, he's sweet, but he ain't easy. She took good care, stayed in communication with us (working with the time differences), and knew when to ask questions. I felt very secure leaving Bear in her care and will certainly call on her again.”


“Sia did a great job with my dog. Thank you!”


“Jyana was a quick response and great at keeping us up to date on the pets’ day. She kept to their routine perfectly and gave them lots of cuddles. Even my very shy cat felt comfortable enough to make an appearance to her towards the end of the day. She was polite and a wonderful house guest as well; I highly recommend and would ask her help in the future”


“Claire was very communicative. She sent me photos and updates to let me know how things were going while sitting my dog. I felt confident that he was being well taken care of - thanks Claire!”

About: I began pet sitting as a teenager, and have had dogs and cats around me my whole life! I treat every pet as if they are my own, and love getting to know their little Goldilocks personalities! These days, I help out when I can, whether that's house sitting for family (and there's a pig involved!) or for my buddies' pets. I can promise your pet will receive lots of love, attention, and making sure they are safe and comfortable! Endless love for the ones afraid of thunder! I'm currently available from Tuesdays to Saturdays at any time! I will be beginning school at Valencia College this fall, and hoping to keep loving on pets! Will post a detailed schedule once classes are closer to beginning. I will always follow any instruction given to me, whether that is sticking to feeding schedules, managing medications, or leash rules. I want your pet to feel calm and comfortable, even when you're away. I'll also keep you updated with photos and messages to ensure your baby is having a good time!

“Christina was great with our dog and cat. She kept to their schedules and stayed at our place for several nights. You couldn't even tell she had been here. We wouldn't hesitate to use her again.”



“Luciano took very good care of Max and sent nice photos. He also made a very clever video with his making doggy noises that resulted in Max cocking his heads and looking just adorable. I would hire him again without reservation as he is a very nice responsible, young man.”


“Mickey is awesome! My fur baby lives her. She takes her on long walks and spends quality time with her. She will always be my first choice sitter!”


About: I’m the biggest pet lover I know! I frequently dog-sit and cat-sit for friends and neighbors. Throughout my life, I've had six dogs, two of whom now live with my parents. All of them have enjoyed wonderful lives! One of my special skills is out-energizing dogs during their walks. I love taking them around the lake and enjoying my neighborhood! I often visit my neighbors to check on their pets, change the kitty litter, or just spend time with them—especially when they go on vacation. I also feed and walk my friend's pets. See I create a detailed list of needs and wants for the pets, all discussed with the pet owner to ensure that I understand what is required for their care. I also like to get to know both the owner and the pet before providing care. This allows me to ask questions and gather the necessary information to properly care for the pet.

About: I’m an animal lover who enjoys playing and cuddling with fur babies. I’m open to meeting the individual and unique needs of every animal I care for. I enjoy creating my own schedule and prioritize care into my routine to soothe, comfort, entertain and provide basic needs for every animal in my care. My availability are weekends and afternoons. Routine schedules for feeding, potty and play time are ideal so I and the animals know what’s coming, if you have a routine set I will gladly flow with what’s already in place.

“Joy was wonderful to my two pups! She kept consistent communication with updates and pictures. She kept my home nice and clean and treated it like it was her own. We will be re booking her! ❤️ thanks Joy!”


About: I’ve taken care of friends and family dogs since I was 15. I am a college student, looking to spend some time with loving pups!
