“Andrea is a wonderful second mom for Brutis. She is very patient with Brutis and he really likes being there with her. This is not our first time and won't be our last time with Mommy Andrea.”


“Aaliyah was very communicative. It was the first long period away from my dog and I was updated on her activity while I was gone, which I loved! She allowed me to bring my dog over before officially boarding so she can get used to Aaliyah’s dog and home. I highly recommend her and will be using her services again!!”


“Nicole was fantastic! She sent us pictures and videos throughout the stay and our dog had a great time at her place. I felt very comfortable leaving Simba with her and her crew. I would 100% book with her again.”


“We are so glad we found Francesca! She has a lovely, peaceful demeanor that’s perfect for pets. Our dog adored her, and he is a handful! She managed our rambunctious mutt perfectly. She has a clean and orderly home, and we were very comfortable leaving our fur baby with her. Thank you!”


About: Hello – my name is Felicha, and caring for pups is something I have done for over 13 years. I am an experienced sitter who you can trust to take amazing care of your pup. I take any opportunity to snuggle and engage in fun interactive activities (walks, play time, adventures) with our fury friends. I am incredibly reliable, trustworthy, and flexible. In the end I really love growing relationships with my pup parents and their babies, it has ultimately been the most rewarding part of caring for pups. I'm very flexible for boarding and available to care for pups any day of the week to include weekends. I have a fenced yard and one friendly pup to keep your fur baby company. Safety is my number one priority! My goal is to ensure the time you have away from your pup is stress free, so you can focus on enjoying your day at work, vacation, or daily outing! My home is located within a pet friendly neighborhood. I have plenty of play space with a large fenced yard (fully secured) and one friendly pup to keep your fur baby company. I am well equipped for crate care as well as open sleeping arrangements (if pup is appropriately house trained). Loving and caring for your pup is my priority.

“Our experience was incredible, Ana took excellent care of our dog, she always sent photos and video of what she was doing, also fifi was a great company for Nico !! Recommended 100%”


“Our dog always loves spending time with Bibiana and her family! She send plenty of updates with pictures and videos. We’re very grateful to have her as our recurring sitter!”


“Lacey gave us so much peace of mind while we were out of town. She treated our cat, Dexter like he was one of her own. She sent photos and updates everyday and he looked so happy to be there. Also, I could tell how much he loved her when I came to pick him up. 😊 We are so grateful and cannot recommend her enough.”


“Linda is the best❣️ When I first met Lunda, I knew she was the sitter I’d be able to trust my pooch with. From all the pics Linda texted me, I knew Peyami’s stay was enjoyable for him and that’s priceless. Thank you Linda ?”


“Linda and Brian cared for our Rue girl for two weeks while we were out of the country. It’s impossible to put into words how much we appreciate the love and care that was extended to our baby. She made fast friends with their sweet dog, Carmi, and Linda sent daily pictures or videos showing them having so much fun together and then napping together from exhaustion. Linda made the time to meet us well in advance of caring for Rue and really listened to what Rue needed, including walks, being brushed, the ability to have her crate to sleep or take breaks in when she wanted, and following her feeding schedule. Linda allowed Rue free rein in her home, and even made time for her to relax on the lanai to people and bird watch; something she loves to do at home. Rue had an amazing time, and this allowed my husband and I to really enjoy our vacation knowing she was having the time of her life too. We wholeheartedly recommend Linda for pet sitting services. I don’t think you’ll find anyone as wonderful as Linda and Brian out there! (Thank you so much for everything, Linda!)”


“Theo had the best time during his stay! So grateful for these amazing sitters! They kept me updated with messages and photos, and my pet was clearly well taken care of. I’ll definitely be booking again!”


“I couldn’t be happier with the care our dog received! Jennifer was incredibly kind, responsible, and attentive. They kept us updated with daily photos and messages, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Our pup came home happy, healthy, and clearly well loved. It’s clear Jennifer treats animals like family. Highly recommend and will definitely book again!”


“We recommend Lara! She has been great with our mini golden doodle Benny. She's watched Benny for us twice. He enjoys making furry friends at her home and playing with them in her back yard. We are grateful that while we are away, instead of being in a sterile concrete kennel facility, Benny can stay at Lara's comfortable home with she and her family.”


About: Hi! I am a college student who loves taking care of dogs. I have experience in leash training. I can handle pretty much any task from my experience walking/caring for my college friend’s dogs whenever they are not available. I loveee Pit Bulls and definitely plan on getting a Pit Bull Terrier when I’m finished with school! Feel free to reach out about my schedule! I am back in school now so I am completely free on weekends and I am usually more free on evenings during my weekdays. I love to play and take your dogs on walks. I am also an athlete who loves to run so, I wouldn’t mind taking your dog for a little running session as well!

“Hans had a great time with their family. We appreciated the pictures and info on how he was doing. Always nice to see Hans getting snuggles in while we are away. Their other dog was a sweetie and got along with Hans perfectly. We will definitely book again when we have to head out of town next time.”


“Kym was great with my pup. While I was out of town visiting family and living my best life, Pixie was living her best life with Kym. She made sure that she got plenty of exercise and snuggles and even took her out on the golf cart which she loved. I really appreciate that Kym was able to watch my dog on fairly short notice as well after my primary sitter became unavailable. I may have just found a new primary sitter.”


“Had a late notice trip out of town and Candice boarded my dog for 5 days. She was easy to work with and Paddington was looked after very well. If the need arises, I will take him back to visit.”
