“Elaine is a very kind and reliable person- I’m so grateful for her help with my dog Buddy. She was very considerate of his needs and spent time getting to know him, making sure he was comfortable and well cared for. I highly recommend services!!”


“My poor dog was sick the day Brit came to walk him. She handled the mess like a professional and still got him out in the neighborhood to do his business. I definitely appreciate the lengths she went to caring for him and would feel confident about booking her for a longer stay.”


“I’m SO incredibly thankful I found Jennifer! She takes such good care of my boy when I’m at work. She even treats him to “spa days” by brushing him with a brush she bought for him. She is sweet and patient which is needed with Stryker since he takes a few meetings to warm up to new people. She keeps me updated and lets me know/asks questions if Stryker is acting “off”. Don’t think, just book with her!”


“THE BEST!!!!!!!! She goes out of her way to make sure your baby is happy!!! My Winston is always tired when he gets home so I know she has done her job!!! I can not say enough how much I appreciate her!!!!! 100 stars and more for this lady!!!”

About: Dogs are simply a gift to mankind! I’ve been around them since I was a baby, from tiny puppies to seniors. I’ve been involved with multiple rescue organizations, most recently helping a foster find her forever home in Pinellas County. I look forward to meeting you and your baby ❤️ I work remotely from a large home office that is open to the living room, dining room and kitchen with a view of the fenced yard. My girl and our guests are rarely out of sight. Even with a fenced yard, walks are daily in the morning and evening. We’re near a soccer field and a dog park, perfect for high energy pups. The neighborhood is extremely dog friendly, so if your pup is walk challenged or reactive please let me know. I host one dog at a time which I find less stressful for them while their family is away. I also do not provide daycare. Your pup is welcome in any area of the home. My own girl Willa has never been crated so if yours is comfortable in his/her crate at times/overnight or needed for when I leave the house please provide one.

About: With 4+ years of hands-on experience in animal care and veterinary medicine, I bring a level of training and confidence you won’t find with just any sitter or walker. I’ve worked with a wide range of species—from dogs and cats to sea turtles, sharks, and dolphins—so I’m calm, capable, and quick to respond to any situation. Whether your pup is high-energy, shy, or has medical needs, I’ve got the skills to keep them safe, happy, and engaged. I also share my life with a high-energy Australian Shepherd, so I know just how important it is to keep active dogs mentally and physically engaged. We’re always out on adventures, whether it’s trail walks, beach runs, or structured training sessions. Animal care isn’t just something I do—it’s what I’ve dedicated my career to. For the time being, I am working from home, so I am very flexible with my schedule. I will be available any time during the week to give extra attention to your animals! In my client’s home, I aim to keep your pet’s routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I follow all care instructions closely—meals, medications, walk schedules, training cues, and enrichment needs. I make sure your pet gets plenty of exercise, attention, and mental stimulation, whether that’s a structured walk, playtime, or some calm cuddle time. I also respect your space and keep everything clean, secure, and exactly how you left it. Your expectation will always be met!

About: I have been an avid dog lover my whole life. I have a fur baby of my own, and would love to help you with yours. I currently have open availability throughout the week. I have plenty of time to get to know, and play with your pups. Monday - Friday I will follow your instructions, for caring for your pet, and home. I will also treat your pet like they are a member of my own family. I work early mornings until noon, which means I can offer you my full attention and energy all afternoon to create an amazing experience for your pups! They'll have a fantastic time with me! I’m here to help keep your pet feeling relaxed and happy by sticking to their routine just the way you like it! I’ll make sure to keep you in the loop with updates on your furry friend, complete with photos, videos, and messages. Plus, I’m all about tailoring our time together to fit your pet’s unique needs when it comes to attention and fun activities!

About: With years of hands-on experience, I’m a dedicated and passionate pet sitter who offers reliable, loving care for both dogs and cats of all temperaments and ages. From energetic puppies as young as 6 weeks to senior pets needing extra TLC, I specialize in tailoring care to meet each animal’s unique needs. For the past 2 years, I’ve been an outstanding sitter on Rover, as well as private clients, and other platforms, I’ve consistently received glowing reviews and responses from happy clients. In addition to my professional history, I have a lifelong background in animal rescue, starting in childhood and continuing into adulthood. This experience has given me a deep understanding of animal behavior, including working with timid, reactive, and aggressive dogs to help them feel safe, seen, and supported. I’m skilled in: • Pet sitting (in-my-home and drop-in) • Leash walking & exercise routines • Basic obedience and behavioral training • Handling aggressive, anxious, shy, or high-energy pets • Bathing and basic grooming • Administering medication or following special care routines What You Can Expect with My In-Home Care: Your pet’s comfort and joy are my top priorities. Though my home is small, it’s a warm, safe, and enriching environment filled with activities and affection. Daily routines typically include: • Morning and evening walks • Outdoor sunshine and dog park trips 1–2 times per week • Doggie pool play & enrichment activities • Brain stimulation games • Indoor playtime and plenty of cuddles To ensure safety and comfort, I offer: • Outdoor run leads for secure off-leash time • Two gated areas and two crates for smooth transitions or decompression, if needed • A peaceful, structured environment that supports both play and rest If you’re not looking for in-home care, I also offer a variety of flexible services, including: • Drop-in visits • Daytime pet sitting • Dog walking • Bathing and light grooming • Basic training sessions • Special request accommodations I care for every animal as if they were my own, and I would be honored to welcome your fur baby into my care. Let’s connect and discuss how I can give your pet the love, safety, and attention they deserve while you’re away! I am available 24/7. I am always flexible and willing to work with pet owners to help cater to whatever needs there may be. I’m currently working part-time as a private caregiver and create my own schedule. I’m completing an internship as a dog trainer with Ridgeside K9 - Tampa which also allows me to be home more and create a very flexible schedule to tend to my animals when they need me. When caring for pets in my home or my client’s home, I prioritize creating a safe, calm, and nurturing environment tailored to each pet’s needs and personality. I ensure my space is pet-proofed—free of hazards, with secure fencing (if applicable), and a consistent routine that helps pets feel at ease. In a client’s home, I always respect their space and follow their instructions closely to maintain continuity for their pet. I build trust through clear communication, regular updates with photos/videos, and by being dependable and gentle in all interactions. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, administering medication, or simply offering comfort, I provide attentive, loving care so your pet feels secure and happy while you’re away.

“We contacted David to help with our dog, Bella Mae, for a couple days last week as I had minor surgery and could not walk her. David was nice enough to stop by prior to scheduled time and meet us and Bella. He is a fine young man who clearly loves animals and was great with Bella Mae.”


“Caitlin was awesome - she was on time and accommodated a short notice request to walk my big boy Winston (120lbs). Did a great job on a full hour walk, and Winston was as happy as a clam after a walk with Caitlin. Definitely would recommend anyone trust their furry loved one(s) in her care.”


“Sheryl was, at the last minute, able to take our dog for daily walks while we were gone. It was such a comfort to know Cleo was so well taken care of while we were away. It's clear to see Sheryl loves dogs and wants to be as helpful as possible. Great communication. I will definitely call on Sheryl again when we need someone!”


About: Ever since I’ve been a kid I’ve dreamed of working with animals. I’m very patient and hardworking. I love a bit of a challenge with animals and making them happy is what matters to me. I work part time currently with some hours of free time and I would love to spend some time with some pups and cats even if it means taking a day off to watch them overnight so you feel safe knowing ur beloved animal is in good hands.Taking care of animals warms my heart and I’d love to make it a habit of mine in the long term! Not only would a habit be great but a permanent lifestyle is what I’m aiming for. Can’t wait to start my journey:) I always have my puppy around me and I walk him 3 times a day and feed him properly and always make sure he’s clean and comfortable. I am able to prove whatever my client needs to feel secure with me. If that includes meet and greets to feel comfortable please let me know I’m very social and love to get to know others.

“Olivia did a FANTASTIC job with Indy today! She is so caring and attentive, even recognizing when the heat was starting to wear on Indy during the walk.

- A map of their walk with total distance
- Pee, poo, food, and water breaks
- Cute photos and a personalized note
