“Stella did a fabulous job with my dog Chloe. She stayed at my home with her and I didn’t have to worry about anything. She took wonderful care of Chloe and my home in a very caring manner. I will absolutely use Stella’s services in my future for Chloe.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs & cats of all kinds ever since I started babysitting kids. From walking to overnights, I enjoy hanging out with your fur babies very much and would love to help you with any pet needs! I’m currently working full time, M-F 9-5pm. I am available for early morning or nighttime walks during the week or any needs on the weekends. Open to overnights at pet owners home! I have a fenced in dog area at my apartment as well as many nearby parks and safe sidewalks in my neighborhood. Any sittings at your home will be treated with respect and care!
“Thank you for taking good care of Sam! I felt very comfortable with her from the moment I met her at our meet and greet. We will definitely book her again.”

“Robin is a lovely person! She is very thorough - asked me about medications, restrictions, food etc for my dog. Robin arrived on time and my anxious pup was immediately at ease with her. I would highly recommend Robin to take care of your pet!”


“Got it 😄 here’s a short, playful, 5-star version: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Claire was amazing with our Mylo! She followed all of his daddies’ very specific (ok… slightly neurotic 😅) instructions perfectly and kept us smiling with great photos and updates. Mylo was clearly happy, relaxed, and totally loved. We would book Claire again in a heartbeat. Highly recommend! 🐾💙”


“When Neil stays with Cooper, we feel as though he’s with a family member who know him, loves him And cares for exactly as we do. We will asking Neil again, and again to stay with our 4 legged family member. Thanks for a great job”

“Nicky was the most professional person. Arriving a few minutes early to ensure he got everything he needed done prior to arriving (securing parking, front desk reception etc.). Asked thoughtful questions about the care of our dog. Checked in throughout the day, and ensured our dog was walked throughout the day. Our dog LOVED him And even gave him her paw (which she only does when she is comfortable). You could tell he truly cares about dogs/animals. Anytime Nicky is free we’d love for him to sit our dog Bagheera any day. Could not ask for a better sitter.”

“Kimmeth did an amazing job watching our two dogs while we are on vacation for a week. She stayed in our home and was very detailed in following "instructions" and sending daily updates and photos. Our two little dogs seemed very happy and content when we returned. I highly recommend Kimmeth!”

“Short weekend with my pets .Great care as usual and kept my house in order .Very reliable and easy to communicate with. Lots of adorable pet pictures to keep my mind at ease. We’ll definitely use again.”

“Sean is awesome. He stayed with my two dogs for a week at my place. He kept in contact regularly and dealt with my older boy’s med schedule and younger boy’s weirdo anxiety. It was a huge relief to find a sitter who genuinely loves animals. My dogs are everything to me, but they’re needy little suckers, and they came through this week like a charm because of Sean.”

About: Been a go-to for neighbors, friends, and family since I was a pre-teen (10+ years). I have experience as a vet tech and experience with older dogs, including administering medication. I became a popular sitter at a dog park I started to frequent with owners that I saw often. As a remote digital marketing consultant, I’m home with my own dog for most of the day. My availability is pretty open if scheduling happens with enough notice. I'd love to spend time with your dog, whether it's just a drop in visit, playing in the backyard, a leisurely walk, or even going for a jog to get our exercise in!
“Carol provided my senior dog with love and affection. Engaging Carol's services was simple; Carol and I met face-to-face and introduced Violet. Carol was meticulous in explaining the program and we got along great. I wholeheartedly recommend her service!”

“Alaina was professional, responsible and my pets all loved her. She even went above and beyond when an unanticipated, difficult situation arose. I would recommend her with confidence.”


About: I’m a lifelong animal lover who believes dogs deserve all the love, belly rubs, and happy walks they can get! I’ve grown up around dogs of all sizes and personalities — from playful puppies to older cuddle bugs — and I absolutely love spending time with them! Whether it’s a long walk, rough housing, or just cozy couch time, I’ll make sure your pup feels cared for, safe, and loved while you’re away. I treat every dog like my own and love getting to know their quirks and favorite things. You can expect lots of text updates, silly photos, and goofy videos! 🐾✨ I work unique hours during the week, so I have plenty of time in the mornings and evenings for walks, drop-ins, and quality pet time. My flexible schedule lets me give pets consistent care and attention without feeling rushed. Safety is ALWAYS my first focus — keeping doors locked, leashes secure, and routines consistent. I’m attentive during walks and play, and always make sure your pup feels comfortable and cared for.

About: Hi! I’m based in Flagler Village and have a super flexible schedule while I finish my MBA online. I’ve grown up with dogs and love being around them! I’m a very active runner and would love to take your pup on walks, runs, or just hang out and give them lots of attention. I’m reliable, easy to communicate with, and will treat your dog like my own while sending regular photo and video updates so you always feel at ease 😊 I love being active and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, so your pup will get plenty of exercise, attention, and care throughout the day. Whether it’s walks, runs, playtime, or just keeping them company, I have the time and energy to make sure they’re happy and well taken care of. I live in a condo on the first floor and can provide multiple daily walks, runs, or visits to the dog park if you’d like.
“Mei was fantastic. She really listened to all of my feeding, walking, and medication instructions for my 11 year old dog. She kept my home very clean and is a very responsible young adult. Highly recommend her.”


About: I have a strong medical and scientific background, so I’m very comfortable recognizing changes in behavior, stress, or health, and responding appropriately. That means your pet isn’t just being watched, they’re being carefully cared for. I’m patient and adaptable with all types of dogs, from high-energy puppies who need structure and consistency, to senior dogs who require a calmer pace, medication support, and gentle handling. I follow routines closely, whether that’s feeding schedules, crate training, reinforcing basic commands, or maintaining your dog’s normal environment to reduce anxiety. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I structure my schedule around it to ensure consistency and reliability. I’m flexible with mornings, afternoons, and evenings, so I can accommodate walks, drop-ins, feedings, or overnight care without rushing. I tailor my care to each pet’s routine and comfort level, whether in my home or in the client’s home. My priority is keeping things consistent, calm, and safe so your pet feels secure.

5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ This is my 3rd time using Christina and she’s amazing every time. As someone who struggles with leaving my pet who feels like my child, she always makes me feel safe and at ease. She cared for our girl and kept us updated the whole stay, which gave us so much peace of mind. Truly grateful for her kindness, reliability, and the love she shows our pets. Thank you so much, Christina!

Can’t recommend Robin enough! My husband and I left town for the first time without our 1-year-old dog Ollie and knowing she was caring for him was such a huge comfort. She was super responsive and sent regular pictures throughout the weekend, and Ollie clearly loved having her here. Thank you for everything!

Catherine was a please to work with through the entire process of contact, meet n great, and actual reservations. She sent us lots of pics of pups having fun in the sun on the pool deck. In fact, once we got home, pups were unphased and asked "when are you going away again so the nice lady can come back!" would definitely recommend.

Our doggie had an instant report with Ashley, which gave us a great peace of mind. She cared for our dog like she was her own, and we received cute pics and frequent updates. We came home to a spotless house and a very content doggie!! Will absolutely recommend and hope to have her dog sit for us soon.

If you can handle my reactive, unpredictable, very cuddly chaos gremlin (aka Taz, short for Tasmanian Devil!!), you can handle anything — and Christina did it flawlessly. From the start, she went out of her way for a consult AND a drop-in to make sure my boy was comfortable with her before house-sitting. Also, her communication was top-tier (updates + photos that made me smile all weekend). Not to mention she treated my home with so much care!!! Most importantly, Taz was happy, relaxed, and clearly well-loved when I got back - which is not often the case with prior sitters!! That alone tells me everything I need to know. Christina is truly a gem — we’ll 100% be booking again!

Jennifer took amazing care of our dogs, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. From the start, she was reliable, communicative, and clearly very attentive to their needs. She went above and beyond while we were away, even handling extra cleanup without hesitation, which we truly appreciated. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our pups were in such capable and caring hands. They were happy, comfortable, and well-looked-after when we returned. Jennifer treated them like her own. We would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable, thoughtful, and genuinely caring sitter. Thank you, Jennifer!

Lauren came to stay at our house for a little under a week to watch our dog, Benji. Benji loved her from the start, which was very reassuring since he is a rescue and can be quite nervous around new people. She was communicative throughout the whole stay and went above and beyond to take good care of him. We would highly recommend her and would love to have her watch Benji again!
