“Catherine took such good care of our boys, we were genuinely concerned that they wouldn’t want to come back with us! She was very communicative while we were away for 5 days, I never worried about the boys once. We’re so grateful we found her and able to reach out to her for future needs.”
“Victoria was amazing, she kept me in the loop my entire trip and handled my boy’s medical situation well, providing information and reassurance to me. Which little did she know kept my anxiety at bay on an already stressful trip. I appreciate her and I know Remy did when he turned back around to get some last min pets before leaving. He came home and got right back into our routine which to me shows he was comfortable while away. I’m so glad we found her! He’ll be back soon!”

About: I just want to take your dog for a walk, snuggle them and spoil them. My sister took custody of our dogs after I moved to Orlando for a job, now I need some K9 companionship in my life to fill the void. I have a cat so they have to be okay with care. No aggressive animals, looking for friendly and sweet, dogs who are for the most part, friendly towards other animala. I’m not a professional, just a life long dog lover, so I will accept bookings on a case by case basis. I have a day time job that I work Monday through Friday. I mainly work from home but I do go out for appointments and am not usually gone more than 4 hours at a time. If your dog likes car rides, they can tag along. I live in an apartment in the downtown area of Sanford so the area is very walkable. I will take them like they were my own. We will go on walks where we will go for doggy ice cream. I’ll let them on all the furniture, on my lap, in my arms… I would only entertain dogs coming to my house as well, it’s clean and cozy.
“It was 2nd time when I leave my puppy with Candace - I can't even imagine better place for my puppy, when I out of town, my Leo is always happy when I come to pick him up. And thank you, Candace for really fast respond. ”
“This is our second time leaving our two dogs with Sam, and I can honestly say it’s such a relief to find someone I trust to care for them when I have to go out of town. We usually try to bring them with us, but sometimes that isn’t possible, and it eases a lot of stress knowing we have someone we trust to take care of them like Sam does. We will continue to book with her in the future. Our dogs are always at ease when they’re with her, and I can tell that she takes great care of them as if they were her own.”
“David took great care of our girl Summer! He sent lots of pictures and it looked like she was having a great time playing with their dog. We would definitely board with him again”
“Thank you so much! 😊🐶This was Bono’s first time staying with her, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. She took such great care of him and kept me updated throughout, which I really appreciated. Her communication was excellent, and it was clear that Bono was in great hands. I’m definitely planning to book with her again whenever I need someone. Highly recommend!”
“This is our second time using Confesora. We have been very happy with her. We can tell from the pictures she sends that our dog is happy and comfortable with her and in her home.”
“Kari is an outstanding pet sitter! I boarded my 2 dogs for 11 days in her beautiful spacious home. She was extremely attentive to their needs, giving them a lot of personal time , allowing them to experience a very safe, relaxing & comfortable stay . My dogs were in heaven at her place! I highly recommend Kari !”
“Bobby enjoyed his stay with Brian & Popeye. He got to play and play with Popeye. I am so greatful to have found Brian. We are definitely coming back.”
“Emillie is so great. This is the second time she has kept our dog. She sends regular updates and pics throughout the stay. She lets me know how my dog is eating and sleeping. I hope she is available every time we need to board my dog.”
“Jasmine was amaaaazing with our senior dog. Kept up with her medications, sent us lots of pictures and updates on how she was doing, and her lil dog Hero was so sweet and actually got our curmudgeon chiweenie playing. Plus when we had delays on our returning flight, Jasmine was super flexible and helped us adjust our pickup. 10/5 stars, will absolutely book again!”

Bruce had a great stay with Juan! He was well cared for and came home super tired from playing with the other dogs. I appreciate the daily photos and videos! Thank you!
So glad Kylie was able to accept our request for our cruise when our sitter cancel last minute. Our terrier mix, Leia, came back so happy so we know she had a blast! Her house has a beautiful fenced backyard and Kylie herself was so welcoming. If we ever return to Florida I would definitely seek out for more visits.
I regularly use Douglania for pet sitting and they always take great care of my dog. I highly recommend Douglania for all services.

Thank you David for an awesome job of taking care of my boy. Once again, never felt guilty of leaving him because I know he'd be busy and spent to even think about us. He's always happy to stay with you and his two besties Sadie and Rosie. I even felt he misses you and his buddies because he looks a little sad now his home. We will see you again and again...
I could not recommend a better family to care for your fur babies! David and his wife loved our Bee girl as their own, took lots of photos, and treated Bee as their own. They truly love dogs, and I will be using them again.

She is always so warm and welcoming!!! I love that she cares for my baby❤️ my dog seems happy being at her home
Was our first time leaving our dog with Amanda and we are very happy with her work. She keeps us informed about our dog on daily basis. Was very nice with us. We will repeat her services in the future.
Curtis is responsive and flexible; he kept us updated about our dog while we were away. He sent pictures and videos. Our dog was happy there.
Zhu seems to have a great time as he enjoys having other dogs around to play with. Joanna was very friendly & knowledgeable since she has her own dogs & treated Zhu like her own. already booked another visit
