“Gabrielle was amazing!!! We were in Destin for a family trip and wanted to bring our dogs with us. The resort we were at doesn’t allow pets so we needed a sitter nearby. Our dogs were always safe in her care, and we received tons of updates and photos daily. We were even able to take our dogs for a couple of hours since she was so flexible:) I would definitely recommend Gabrielle for anyone wanting a sitter, and we’ll be booking with her again next time we’re in the area!!❤️”

They were super flexible when my flight got in a little early and had everything packed up and ready to go when I got there. We would definitely book with them again!”

“Sam was everything I was hoping for my fur baby! She treated her like her own. They had backyard adventures and lots of walks, cuddles and all kinds of fun times with Gus and the kitty. I felt confident that Fern was being taken care of and did not worry about her on my trip. Sam will be my go to if I have to leave town again!”

“This was Dovey's first time staying with Alexandra and her family. My husband and I had to travel for 6 days and leaving Dovey for this length of time with a new family made me worry. I have to say, the moment we left Dovey, our one year old, very active, German Shorthaired Pointer with Alexandra and drive away on our trip, we had no concerns. Alexandra and her husband, her three dogs, her cats, and her children were very welcoming. They made Dovey feel like she was one of the family. By the many photos Alexandra sent us, Dovey chimed right in with the daily activities and daily walks. When we picked Dovey up to bring her home, she was happy to see us but seemed almost sad to leave her new family of friends!! Dovey wasn't stressed, she smelled good and was very nice and tired, a good thing for a GSP. We would certainly like to have her stay with Alexandra again!!!!”

“My dog is older with separation anxiety and Susan handled it with such grace! She gave the best care I have ever gotten from a dog sitter. She provided me with many updates when I was out of town that made me feel so at ease that he was in good hands! She was also very quick at responding whenever I reached out! I was blown away with her care for me as a dog owner and my pup allowing him to be comfortable with whatever he wanted/needed. I would recommend her to all people needing dog care!”

About: I am one of those people who loves animals more than people. I love them so much I went vegetarian. Whatever your pet needs are, I will always make sure to keep them in their normal routine. Whether they are old and need assistance, require daily walks, or just need constant attention, I pride myself on keeping them happy while you are away. I started getting into pet sitting when one of my close friends continues to take long vacations. Her elderly dog was very frail and slow moving, and required a bit more attention. By the end of my dog sitting that doggie walked up to me and put her paw on my chest and I just KNEW that I should continue doggie sitting as a means for extra income. Trust me! Your puppies will love me 😍

“Nicole took great care of our two dogs. They both have never stayed with anyone outside of our family for more than 2 days and were anxious but she took the time to get them comfortable at their own pace and gave us constant updates. Definitely the only one we would trust with our dogs for any future boarding needs while we are still in the area!”

I cannot thank you enough for taking care of my babies at the last-minute booking. Francis is super communicative and solution-oriented, especially since it's the first time they were apart. I felt comfortable and secure with her. Definitely, when I go back to the town, I will book here again.

Lina was great with our golden doodle and took great care of him while we were out of town. We got pictures and updates often and he was spoiled all the time with long walks, treats and cuddles. Would definitely recommend her for pet sitting services and would book again in the future!

WOW! How did we get so lucky?! Let me prefix this by saying we don’t live in the area. We were from out of town having Spring Break with our kids when our dogs started getting anxiety anytime I left our Airbnb. I landed upon Kameliya on Rover to give our puppies the much needed love and time while we enjoyed the beach. I couldn’t have picked a better person! Kameliya was fantastic! If she could travel or lived in Texas, she would be our reoccurring sitter. 5 stars!
