“Dayana is always great with my doggies! She is a regular in my household, she is so carrying, always keeping me updated with everything and even goes out of her way to help me whenever I book with her. I highly recommend her!”


“Excellent - detail oriented- trustworthy - loveable - caring. I will definitely use Kiara's services again! made me feel so at ease when I went to work, and returned from work and I found my babies fed, walked, happy, and I am very grateful Thank you Kiara Marty”


“Marcela took care of my 2 dogs (1 young, 1 geriatric) for 2 weeks and did an outstanding job. She is reliable, conscientious, and was very good interacting with my dogs. My older dog has some health issues that needed to be dealt with while I was gone, and Marcela handled everything calmly and with confidence. She followed the directions I gave her, got him through the problem, and gave me regular and complete follow up on his condition. She is very good at communicating and sent me regular updates. I am very pleased with the care my dogs received and I highly recommend Marcela.”


About: I have had pets my whole life. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed, bathe and care for their pets for years. I have cats and a dog. I am able to give all kinds of medication needed. I work during the day but my mornings and evenings are fully available to take care for your babys. I am free on the weekends. I do not have the space or house big enough to board your fur baby at my house. I am fully able to stay or go to your house to care for your pet

About: I have volunteered with Gainesville Pet Rescue and various humane societies. I have dog treats for your dogs if I am allowed to give to them occasionally (unless instructed not to by you because of your dog's strict diet or any other reason). There is are two dog parks within my complex and doggie bag waste stations around the complex perfect for dog walking. I love pets and have a friendly, playful pup of my own named Champ! I treat all animals with the uttermost care and make sure your pet will have an enjoyable time whether it is dog walking or dog/cat sitting. I take care of my neighbors' dogs whenever they are out of town and would do the same with my former roommate when we lived in Gainesville. I have dog sat for multiple friends and clients before and am very well trusted around pets. Your dog does not have to be crate trained but needs to be house trained and know not to pee inside the house. Puppies are an exception, I don't mind placing pee pads around if they are just learning house training. I am available most days and nights with prior notice. My schedule is flexible so feel free to contact me anytime about availability. I mainly work from home currently unless I am out sitting for other pets or volunteering. My schedule is very flexible and will usually be available to accept your booking if you let me know in advance. I have a dog of my own and often care for my friends’ cats and dogs. I will care for your furry friend as if they were my own! I will make sure to do whatever necessary so that your pet will feel safe in their own home. I can follow any routine you would like me to and am always willing to do a meet-and-greet before hand if you’d like. I have experience with all types of dogs from shy dogs with separation anxiety to jumpy energetic dogs that require lots of exercise. I make sure to provide pictures and updates about how the visit went. Am always available for contact if you have any questions or need me to do anything extra while caring for your pet! For dog boarding, I have a fenced-in backyard for your dogs to play outside with mine. They can also play with toys inside and have a couch area they can nap on if they please.

About: I've been a proud dog mom to my sweet Chihuahua for over 7 years, and caring for dogs has always been a big part of my life. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else, and I treat every dog I care for like family with patience, love, and lots of attention. I have experience with small breeds, senior dogs, and pets who may need a little extra TLC. I'm also very mindful of each dog's individual needs, whether that's slow walks, special feeding routines, medication, or just extra cuddles. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away. Looking to take good care and walk your furry babies during long weekends and during most of the holidays. My availability is between 11 AM-7 PM everyday but I can do exceptions sometimes with the schedule, let me know and we can agree something. When I walk your dog, their safety and happiness are my top priorities. I always use secure leashes and harnesses, stay alert to our surroundings, and walk at a pace that's comfortable for your pet. I avoid crowded areas and busy streets unless you request otherwise, and I’m very mindful of extreme weather (heat, rain, cold) to make sure your dog stays comfortable. I treat every dog like they’re my own — with kindness, patience, and lots of care. You’ll also get regular updates and photos during our walks, so you can feel confident and connected while your pup is in my care. 🐶💛

“Sloan is great! We feel lucky to have found her to take care of our two pups. Looking forward to booking again. Thanks again Sloan for your extra care this week. We all appreciate you!”

About: I've had pets all my life, so caring for animals comes naturally to me. From playful puppies to senior pets, I understand their different needs and always treat them with love, patience, and attention. I also volunteer at the local animal shelter, where I’ve gained hands-on experience with a variety of breeds and temperaments. Whether it’s giving a senior pet extra comfort or helping a shy dog feel safe, I go the extra mile to make every animal feel at home. What sets me apart is my genuine passion for animals and the trust I build with both pets and their people. As a student, my schedule changes every semester, so open communication is very important to ensure punctuality and reliable care. I’m available in the early mornings, afternoons, and evenings, which allows me to give your pet the time and attention they deserve. I’m dedicated to being thoughtful and dependable, making sure your pet feels comfortable and loved every day. I always put safety and trust first when caring for pets in the pet’s home. I make sure their space is clean, calm, and free from anything that could cause harm. I carefully follow your instructions for feeding, medications, and daily routines to keep your pet comfortable and happy. My goal is to build a trusting relationship by being patient, gentle, and attentive so your pet feels loved and cared for while you’re away.

About: All my life i’ve just loved animals. They bring so much joy and happiness into someone’s day. I believe that I can take great care of your precious pup whenever your in need. My family and I currently have 2 french bulldogs myself, one full of energy and my other is very relaxed and down to earth. I know how difficult it can be to find someone to take care of them while you are away on vacation or just out of town and enjoying yourself. Don’t worry tho, You came to the right person!! I’m a student at the University of Tampa, and while I do have classes, my schedule is flexible. I’m typically available Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and Sunday afternoons. I can swing by for a quick drop-in or walk between 10:30 AM and 12 PM, or dog sit in the afternoons, keeping in mind I have a one-hour class from 2:30 to 3:30 during the week. I’d love to help out however I can! I currently have a 2 French bull dogs who are two are just 2 different characters! One is less maintenance, living to sleep and hang around all day while the other is super rambunctious. He loves belly rubs, frequently gets bursts of energy w/ the zoomies , loves treats and lots of attention so my family and always do our best to keep him active and in shape; Walks, Carrides, Jazz Music, Tv and Activities with toys tend to tire him right out. With a puppy, I know it can be a struggle but with the right methods, everything will slowly fall in to place. We of course always make sure he is well fed and constantly taken out.

“Isaac and his family did a great job taking care of our two girls! We had a last minute booking and they were able to accommodate and even were able to separate our dogs from others at their house since they don’t get along. They got lots of attention and they were great with our elderly dog who has a hard time getting around. I’d definitely recommend them!”


“Tyler was the perfect dog and house sitter. He kept in constant contact with us and sent us pictures of our dogs while were on vacation. I would highly recommend him. We will definitely use him again when we go on vacation. Thank you.”


About: Since I was little, I’ve had an unconditional love for animals. My dream was to study veterinary medicine, and although I didn’t pursue it, my passion for helping every animal in need of love or care has never faded. I was blessed with a wonderful golden retriever who was by my side for 12 amazing years, and now I have a cat who came into my life when my mom started showing symptoms of dementia. A doctor recommended having a pet to support her, and our cat became an unwavering source of comfort for her. My mom has since been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s, and I’ve been her caregiver for six years. I consider myself a patient, passionate person with an abundance of love to give to both people and animals. Having my pet helps me stay active and organized. Taking care of him reminds me of the importance of balancing my time between responsibilities and moments of connection with him. I live in a spacious 3-bedroom apartment and share it with a cat who has interacted with other cats and dogs, so your furry friend will have company to play with. I also love staying active and connecting with nature, so taking your furry child for walks will be one of my favorite tasks.

About: My first vote was when I was 10, and from that moment on I knew I would love her. My neighbors were always asking me to feed their furry friends and take them for walks. They would say, "There goes the girl and her dogs." I have now left my old job as a Medical Assistant because I have always dreamed of getting more involved with furry animals, I think I was born for them and I feel I have a deep connection with them. I have a large, spacious, fenced and secure yard. I also have three adorable dogs that will keep your furry friend company at all times.

About: Since kid I'd always love pets. I just love to take care and being surrounded by them. I found it just lovely, how they give such a joy while just existing. Just fooling and playing around, is what makes my heart to be to the fullest. Currently available, so I'm flexible on my schedules, all days of the week. Just let me know the specified time you need your fur babies to be cared for. The apartments are fenced, but I will always keep an eye and be on alert. I know a lot of the time they need to drain energy, and playing with them it's not a problem for me.

“Amanda was awesome at watching our dog when we had a 4 night getaway. Will definitely use her again!”


Emily F.
“Emily was absolutely amazing with our pitbull, Axel! Leaving him is never easy—he’s strong, energetic, and very attached to us—but Emily made the whole experience stress-free. From the start, she was professional, warm, and clearly experienced with big breeds. She kept us updated with photos and messages, which showed Axel happy, relaxed, and clearly enjoying himself. It was such a relief to know he was not only safe and well cared for, but also genuinely loved while we were away. When we came home, Axel was calm, content, and we could tell he had built a great bond with Emily. It’s not easy to find someone you can fully trust with your dog, but Emily exceeded all expectations. We’ll definitely be calling her again—and we 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, kind, and capable dog sitter!”


Donovan M.
Star Sitter

“I have many stories that shows how loving, caring, and, responsible Donovan can be with dogs and any other animals. One time I had to leave for a few days to go to a music festival and I asked Donovan to take care of my dog. I brifley told him what he needed to do. When I came back . He had done things that I didn’t even expect him to do. Like giving him a shower, staying there for longer than what he needed to , in order to take care of the dog. He exceeded my expectations and he would definitely be my person to go to when taking care of my dog again.”


Dana H.

“Awesome with dogs and hose sitting. Very friendly!”


Karla C.
“I’ve known Karla for years, and one thing has always been clear to me : her love for dogs is genuine and deep. She’s the kind of person who notices the smallest details: if a dog is anxious, tired, or simply needs extra attention, she’s already there making sure they feel safe and cared for. Karla is responsible, attentive, and patient. She doesn’t just “watch” dogs, she connects with them. I’ve seen how her gentle approach and calm presence earn the trust of even the most shy or energetic pups. If you’re looking for someone who will be reliable, respectful, and treat your dog with the same care she gives her own, I can wholeheartedly recommend Karla. With her, you’re not just hiring a service, you’re trusting a friend to keep your dog happy, healthy, and loved.”
