“Shelley has been the best dog sitter I have found so far. She loves my dogs like they are her own. She communicates throughout the day on how they’re doing. She was sad to see them go when I picked them up. I couldn’t have asked for a better person to watch my babies when I am at work. 10/10 recommend.”
“Bryanna took wonderful care of Gilda, my 10 month old English Cocker Spaniel, for two days this week. Bryanna communicated extremely well. She provides secure indoor and outdoor space, and lots of play activities. After the first day, Gilda was extremely eager to return to Bryanna’s care for the second day. And, after the second day, Gilda was exhausted from 2 straight days of play and activities. I will book again with Bryanna, and recommend that you book with her too. Have fun in Punta Gorda, while knowing your precious fur baby is being well cared for by Bryanna.”

“Excellent. Teri is a great care giver. Easy transition going in & out. She sent us pictures and updates. Teri is a good person who has rescued 3 dogs previously to give them a loving home. Our world needs more people like her. I will definitely recommend and rebook with Teri.”
About: I have had Dogs most of my life. My wife and I have 3 now. Smalls, Indy, and Sadie. They get along with all other Dogs and are a big hit at the Dog park. I have never met a Dog I didn't love. Before I retired from the car business, customers would bring thier Dogs in just to see me (I had cookies)! I am very adept at all aspects of caring for Dogs. I am great will puppies all the way up to seniors. I have cared for my own seniors that I have had in the past, and have fostered Dogs also. I am semi retired (I operate an Airbnb), my wife is self employed and works from home so one of us will always be there. Your precious Doggos will be my focus while you are away. If caring for your Dogs at your home, I will treat your home like gold. I can even help with airport drop off and pick up (additional fee based upon driving distance). If our Airbnb isn't rented, I can care for your Dogs at that home, it has a HUGE yard! The yard at our residence is pretty good size too! Errand running or other services you might need are also possible. Again, we own 2 very nice homes in Port Charlotte, one is an Airbnb that, of not rented offers a boarding experience without our Dogs if yours don't get along with other Dogs? Are yours swimmers? Our Airbnb has a pool along with the gigantic fenced yard. Our 3 Doggos LOVE all other Dogs (and people), one of which is a Livestock Guardian breed. Smalls is his name, and he is instinctively protective. Smalls, Indy, and Sadie would love to take care of your precious fur kids!
“Emma, her adorable 2 boys, and Cooper were AMAZING with Mika! She usually has separation issues, but as soon as she went inside, she felt completely at home. She didn’t even want to leave when I picked her up. She is one tired and happy pup, and I 10/10 recommend!”

“Miranda was wonderful to work with! She took great interest in our dog; gave walks, playtime and cuddles. She has a clean safe home with a nice fenced in yard. Provided pictures and was quick to respond to any outreaches and was very accommodating. We would absolutely work with her again when in the area. Highly recommend!”
“Ana was amazing! We met her a couple days before and she and her dog Lex immediately connected with our pup, and then this morning when we went to drop our pup off, she happily trotted in the house to meet Lex instead of freaking out like she normally does when we leave her! She had a great day, we got a bunch of pictures, and she was clearly very happy when we picked her up. Very glad to have found Ana!”

He has helped me with my elderly dogs and cats with extreme care and interest in understanding their needs. He rescues frogs from his pool! Very caring, intuitive to the animals needs. He will make sure that he understands what the dog/cat animal needs are, follow instructions accurately. He is reliable, responsible.”
