“We’re really grateful that we found Ariana through this app! This was our first time leaving our fur babies and she knew I was extra anxious about it. We have a dog that needs medicine twice a day and she handled it easily and professionally. She kept me up to date all weekend and it really helped ease my mind while we were gone. She was great and our dogs did really well with her. We will definitely book her services again!”
“Jace is great. We have booked multiple house sittings with them. Photos and updates are provided regularly. Our dog and home are both well cared for by Jace each time. Highly recommended!”
“Judy’s fantastic! She was great at communicating, great to work with, and most importantly, great with Wesley. We appreciate her watching over him and our home while we were gone!”
About: I've taken care of dogs since I was 16 but I've been around animals since I can remember. I've been around all types of dogs, cats and even bearded dragon lizards! Im great at giving puppies the exercise they need to remain stimulated and entertained. Your animals are in good hands.💕 My job schedule shifts and changes a lot but i am typically 3:30pm-2:00am. This changes pretty often. For drop-in visits I typically check on my clients pets as soon as I'm up, before i head to work, and after work depending on what I discuss with my client. I'm completely off on Fridays and Saturdays. I'm typically very free on Saturdays. On days that I'm off I drop in when I wake up, noon, and in the evening. I can pretty much walk at any time as long as I'm not at work. For house sitting, it all depends on what I discuss with my client cause I'm pretty close to anyone I house sit for, so unless it's requested, I typically sleep in my own bed. I will always walk dogs on leashes with no exception. If for some reason your dog isnt used to walking on a leash I can train them to no problem. Unless the dog is older I prefer crating them or keeping them in a contained space at night or when I'm away.
“Aviana was available for us last minute, and she did great with our two dogs! We have a 100+ lb puppy and Aviana was awesome with her. She kept us informed and sent daily pictures. We are so glad to have a trusted person to watch our dogs!”

“Patty is the BEST pet sitter! Her updates were filled with so much love and care for my pups – she treated them like they were her own! Patty went the extra mile by coordinating with my roommate and handling all those extra tasks that most wouldn’t do. Even with my last-minute requests, Patty was unbelievably accommodating and managed to fit in a meet-and-greet the night before. I can't express enough how thankful I am for her incredible efforts. When I returned from my two-week trip, my dogs were so calm and content. That's how I know they had the best care possible. A massive thank you to Patty – she's an absolute gem! And can we talk about Riley, her dog? The sweetest companion ever! We're definitely counting on Patty for our future pet-sitting needs. Highly recommend :-)”
About: Current Vet Tech, Future Dog-tor 🐶🩺🐾 I love all animals of any size, shape and age! I have experience working with dogs, cats, rabbits, birds and reptiles 🦎🐢 I currently work as a veterinary technician so I have access to quick medical care if needed for your pets:) I'm also a student finishing my bachelors to apply for vet school! I'm typically available every weekend and have a flexible working/school schedule. My yard is fenced and both of my dogs are neutered and friendly. All pets in my home are fixed, fully vaccinated and on flea/tick prevention. The cats have their own room in the house but the dogs get along with everyone:)
About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was young but most recently have cared for friends Czech Shepard and Mini Aussie and now live with a 1 year old lab mix pup. I have loved walking, playing, and hanging out with each of these dogs and would love to help with yours! I am flight student waiting for school. I am available for boarding through the summer and in September will be available after 3pm. I am located in downtown Pensacola and can reach most areas very easily. We have a fenced in yard at home but for boarding I’ll be careful and considerate of the instructions you provide to care for your dog in your home!
About: I’ve taken care of all breeds of dogs big and small since a very young age. Friends, family and neighbors have all relied on me and trusted me with full care of their pets. Wether it’s feeding, walking, bathing. I have a special place in my heart for animals and care for them as if they’re my own. I have plenty of time to play and care for your pets. I’m available M-S anytime from 8am -2:30pm. If needed any earlier please feel free to message me and we can work something out. I care for pets in my clients home as if I was their owner. Making sure fences are closed and if they are needed to be crated properly when appointment is over that will be done.
About: What sets me apart is the way I connect with pets on their level—genuinely, patiently, and with full attention. I don’t just show up to feed or walk them; I show up to understand them. I pay attention to the little things: the way your cat twitches her tail when she’s content, or how your dog likes his leash put on just right. My care goes beyond a checklist—it’s about creating a calm, familiar environment, even when you’re away. I’m naturally nurturing, reliable, and I treat every pet like they’re my own. Taking care of pets fits right into my everyday life. I’m already someone who loves a calm, comforting routine and being around animals just makes that better. Whether it’s checking in during quiet mornings, giving belly rubs during breaks, or evening cuddles, it all blends naturally into how I live. I’m patient, reliable, and genuinely enjoy spending time with pets like they’re my own. At home, my pets are family—and I treat them with the same love, patience, and attention I’d give to any loved one. From keeping their routine consistent to making sure they feel safe, understood, and comforted, I believe in caring for animals with both gentleness and responsibility. When I’m in a client’s home, I bring that same mindset. I respect your space, follow your pet’s schedule closely, and make sure they feel secure, loved, and stress-free while you’re away. Whether it’s a playful cat or a shy pup, I adapt to their personality and needs with care and kindness.
