“Brit was absolutely amazing! She arrived on time and showed great compassion to my babies, and she kept them safe and happy. My babies love people and seek attention, and she provided them with plenty of love. I also appreciated the updates she shared. Thank you, Brit! I will definitely reach out to you again. ❤️ best sitter ❤️”


“Jennifer watched our cat Ozzy while we were out of town the week of Christmas and she was fantastic! Oz is very used to having us home all the time so leaving for 5 days was hard for us and him but Jennifer’s daily updates with pictures, to let us know his mood and that he was doing well was so reassuring. Would definitely recommend Jennifer as a sitter!”

“Emma was fantastic and the best sitter I could ask for. She came to my house while I was at work. She was dependable and flexible which is exactly what I needed to welcome my new puppy. The rover report cards are the best and I love seeing them halfway through my day. I will absolutely have her come again. Thank you Emma, Archie loves you!”


About: I have been pet sitting and walking for a decade now and have my own pets. I can handle small and big dog as well as young and old dogs. I go at their speed with a gentle push so we get some distance in too. I work from home most days and that allows a flexible schedule to get plenty of play time and walks in throughout the day or I care for them like my own and cuddle as much as possible if they like that. If not we just chill and keep each other company

About: With years of hands-on experience, I’m a dedicated and passionate pet sitter who offers reliable, loving care for both dogs and cats of all temperaments and ages. From energetic puppies as young as 6 weeks to senior pets needing extra TLC, I specialize in tailoring care to meet each animal’s unique needs. For the past 2 years, I’ve been an outstanding sitter on Rover, as well as private clients, and other platforms, I’ve consistently received glowing reviews and responses from happy clients. In addition to my professional history, I have a lifelong background in animal rescue, starting in childhood and continuing into adulthood. This experience has given me a deep understanding of animal behavior, including working with timid, reactive, and aggressive dogs to help them feel safe, seen, and supported. I’m skilled in: • Pet sitting (in-my-home and drop-in) • Leash walking & exercise routines • Basic obedience and behavioral training • Handling aggressive, anxious, shy, or high-energy pets • Bathing and basic grooming • Administering medication or following special care routines What You Can Expect with My In-Home Care: Your pet’s comfort and joy are my top priorities. Though my home is small, it’s a warm, safe, and enriching environment filled with activities and affection. Daily routines typically include: • Morning and evening walks • Outdoor sunshine and dog park trips 1–2 times per week • Doggie pool play & enrichment activities • Brain stimulation games • Indoor playtime and plenty of cuddles To ensure safety and comfort, I offer: • Outdoor run leads for secure off-leash time • Two gated areas and two crates for smooth transitions or decompression, if needed • A peaceful, structured environment that supports both play and rest If you’re not looking for in-home care, I also offer a variety of flexible services, including: • Drop-in visits • Daytime pet sitting • Dog walking • Bathing and light grooming • Basic training sessions • Special request accommodations I care for every animal as if they were my own, and I would be honored to welcome your fur baby into my care. Let’s connect and discuss how I can give your pet the love, safety, and attention they deserve while you’re away! I am available 24/7. I am always flexible and willing to work with pet owners to help cater to whatever needs there may be. I’m currently working part-time as a private caregiver and create my own schedule. I’m completing an internship as a dog trainer with Ridgeside K9 - Tampa which also allows me to be home more and create a very flexible schedule to tend to my animals when they need me. When caring for pets in my home or my client’s home, I prioritize creating a safe, calm, and nurturing environment tailored to each pet’s needs and personality. I ensure my space is pet-proofed—free of hazards, with secure fencing (if applicable), and a consistent routine that helps pets feel at ease. In a client’s home, I always respect their space and follow their instructions closely to maintain continuity for their pet. I build trust through clear communication, regular updates with photos/videos, and by being dependable and gentle in all interactions. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, administering medication, or simply offering comfort, I provide attentive, loving care so your pet feels secure and happy while you’re away.

“Amanda stopped in to care for our furry “kids” yesterday. She did a great job of communicating with us while taking care of them. She even thought to leave the outside lights on for us as it would be dark when we returned home. Happy to say our search for a new pet sitter has had great results. We will not hesitate to book her again. Thanks Amanda?”
