I am so grateful for the amazing care my puppy received! The sitter went above and beyond, keeping me updated with photos and making sure he was happy and well cared for. My puppy is high-energy, and I truly appreciate knowing he was in good hands. It’s such a relief to have someone I can trust. Highly recommend this sitter to anyone looking for reliable and loving care!

Dawn has stayed in our home to watch our two kitties multiple times in the past, and did an amazing job. This last trip she watched our dog, Baloo, as well and she was fabulous as always! The care and consideration she’s gives for our animals, and home, I truly amazing. And it makes going away much less stressful.

Cassie and Leanna were really great with Poppy. I felt comfortable while i was out of town that they were looking after my little one. They understood my way of caring for Poppy and they did not disappoint. They also took cute pictures of her which i appreciate! I will definitely be reaching out to both of them again. Thank you again to you both! 🙏

Jackie has come to the rescue for myself and husband while vacationing in Lauderdale. We have our small 14 year old Maltese with us, and had no choice but to take him with us. He doesn’t do well at boarding facilities. I decided to get a dog sitter with the hopes of finding someone asap that not only takes good care of my dog, but is friendly with myself and husband too. It’s hard to trust good people. Jackie is wonderful and accommodating to the times we need. Will use her again in the future when I’m back in Lauderdale. Highly recommend!

Charlene was wonderful with our animals and sent plenty of pictures and updates during her stay. She was quick to reply to my messages, offered to meet up a couple times before the stay to make sure all the animals were comfortable with her, and she made sure our house was cleaned up before we got home, as if we had never left! I will definitely recommend Charlene for anyone who needs a pet sitter!

About: I’ve had lifelong experience caring for dogs of all breeds and sizes, from energetic puppies to senior dogs needing extra care. My playful nature helps me bond quickly with dogs, and I’m attentive to their unique needs. My background with diverse breeds like German Shepherds, Golden Retrievers, Shih Tzus, and a Rat Terrier/Chihuahua mix ensures I can handle different temperaments with patience and love. Pet care is a natural part of my daily life. I dedicate time every day to ensure dogs get the attention, exercise, and care they need. Whether it’s morning walks, playtime in the afternoon, or quiet evening cuddles, I make sure their routine is consistent and comforting. My flexible schedule allows me to adapt to their specific needs, providing personalized care that fits seamlessly into my week. I ensure pets feel safe and comfortable in either my home or yours by sticking to their routine. I provide daily walks, playtime, and plenty of love and attention. I make sure they have a cozy space to relax and am always mindful of any special needs they may have. Whether it’s feeding, grooming, or just keeping them company, I focus on creating a stress-free, enjoyable environment.
