Absolutely 1000000% I’ll be using her services again and again !!!! Misha loves you Leeza ❤️”


7. Nicole D.

“Nicole was so great with our 2 dogs! She was very flexible when we had an emergency and had to move our booking by a couple days, and always quickly responds to any message. Her home is set in a quiet and clean neighborhood so I had no worries about the dogs getting into any mischief. The home was set up to be very dog friendly, and she even had toys and a fenced in backyard that she left the door open to when we first got there so the dogs could explore as they needed to feel comfortable. She sent updates and pictures and videos frequently, and even got our picky anxious boy to eat while we were gone (a true feat!) I wish we lived in this area because we would use Nicole for all our dog sitting needs. You can tell she truly cared for our boys like they were her own.”




8. Lindsey N.

“We wanted to try something different to commercial boarding so our dog could have more playtime and comfort. We were quote nervous as this was our first experience with Rover. So we met with Lindsey and she was FABULOUS !!! Lindsey sent us photos almost everyday, and Sky had a blast. We felt so comfortable and happy that she was spending time with a lovely family and others dogs. I can not recommend her and her family anymore.”


9. Rebekah M.

“My husband and I are working in St. Pete and needed to find a sitter at the last minute for our furry family member. Rebekah got back to me regarding her availability within 30 minutes of my request. She communicated often and in detail and welcomed Gus like part of their family. We have already booked Rebekah for a second stay! When in St. Pete, call Rebekah!”




10. Beverly S.

“Beverly was kind enough to take a last minute reservation. I was able to do a meet and greet with her dog Opal and my dog Zena. They both got along well. Beverly was great with providing pictures and updates. Her yard is perfect as it is fully fenced in. I would definitely recommend Beverly. Zena was relaxed and happy when I came to get her.”


11. Angela & Kenneth P.

“This was the second time that Angela & Kenneth watched my two pups and won’t be the last! They send photos and videos every day which helps put my mind at ease! I definitely recommend Angela & Kenneth to anyone looking for someone to love and care for their fur babies while they are out of town!”


12. Lauren B.

“Leo seemed to have a blast, based on the delightful videos and photographs. She was super communicative, and I got back a happy and healthy pooch. Would definitely use again.”


13. Sally Z.

“Sally was wonderful! She took care of our dog while we were away and send photos and updates everyday. Sally was great to communicate with and promptly replied back. When we picked up our girl she looked happy and content. Sally would definitely be our first choice to watch our little girl. Thank you Sally??”


14. William S.

“William is a fabulous sitter who has, on a couple of occasions gone way "above and beyond" for me and my dog. This is why I keep re-booking him!”


15. Marc & Erandi S.

“Marc and Erandi were beyond amazing. They came to the rescue literally of this pup who's owner was unable to keep him for a short while. They even picked him up for me and were well prepared with a crate in the car to ensure his safety. They constantly sent pictures of him playing and happily interacting with them. Chico was so energetic and happy when they had him. I would not only recommend them but will use them again in the future.”


16. Susan B.

“Susan took great care of Georgia and provided daily updates. She has a great backyard that Georgia loved exploring. I recommend and would use again.”


17. Erandi S.

“Cici loved going to Erandi's beautiful home! She sent lots of picture updates, and we'll definitely be booking again. I feel very safe leaving Cici here, she's an amazing dog sitter.”


18. Billy C.

“Billy was a fantastic sitter for Shadow, our collie / corgi mix. Billy watched / boarded Shadow for a 30 days and all went smoothly. He sent us updates / photos each day and was very responsive if we ever had to communicate with him. Also, Billy only watches one dog at a time so owners don’t have to worry about other animals being with yours. My wife and I would definitely recommend Billy to anyone looking for a dog sitter.”




19. Amanda D.

“Amanda is amazing!! we’ve had her watch our dogs twice now and both times she has sent pictures daily and updated us on how they’re doing. we will be using her to watch our dogs everytime!”


20. Linda M.

“Linda was a great sitter for my dog Bella. She took her on a short notice so I was able to fly home and spend time with family. She followed my instructions and sent plenty of pictures. You can’t go wrong booking with her.”
