About: I recently moved back to Florida to care for my elderly grandmother for a while. I am a registered nurse with experience in Emergency medicine, Labor and Delivery, Med-Surg and a few other skills sprinkled in. So, why on earth would an RN want to watch animals? Simple; I love them and I have a lot of extra time on my hands. I have had pets my whole life and I farmed for over 10 years raising animals. I have never been without a dog and a cat. Currently, my grandmother has a senior companion service dog who was trained for 2 years before she got him. He is a very low energy lap dog for the most part, but loves fur friends. I have one of my own fur babies with me who is 1 year old and a very well behaved service-animal-level dog especially for a puppy, but will run and play till she drops! Care available in your own home or mine. I am no stranger to medical treatments for animals and medications. I can handle all of that if need be at an additional cost. I have treated many living things (not only as a nurse of course), but the farm life has shown me a wide variety of animal care. I do have some weight limits for dogs due to the fact that I need to be very careful about any large dogs around the elderly. It only takes a wiggly butt to bump into someone the wrong way... so for right now; the smaller the better. I am willing to walk them, but we do have a fenced yard on the lake. And I take to dogs to get the mail in the golf cart (dog hauler)! (in doggy car seats of course) I work from home, so it's pretty easy. The only time I am not available is when I travel back home. If I leave for errands, I am normally not gone for more than a few hours on the bigger errand days. I have a fenced yard on the lake. We are in a gated community with plenty of walking room. My two there dogs are bell-trained to go out. We go for rides in the golf cart (it is really just an oversized person and pet-hauler). I can crate them and would prefer that so they can have their "space" or "den" to retreat to with their blanket or dog pillow/bed with all the smells of home. I will do medications and treatments if needed (ie; leg wraps, ear wash, etc). I will bathe them as outlined in services. I will clip nails but ONLY if that is something they are accustomed to as I have first hand experience with breeds that cannot tolerate it.

1. Lauren C.Star Sitter
“Lauren and family are so great to my beloved Rocco. I was able to be away and did not worry about his care. I knew he was in good hands which was such a peace of mind! I will be rebooking and encourage anyone who wants to be away from their pet with no worries to do so as well!”
2. Mary M.
“Mary was absolutely amazing with Layla! She communicated consistently and thoughtfully, sending pictures at least twice a day, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Layla usually goes on a bit of a hunger strike when I leave, but she was so comfortable with Mary that she ate every single meal. That alone says everything! Layla looked genuinely happy in every photo and was clearly very well cared for. Mary also shared how much she loved spending time with Layla, and it truly sounds like they both had a great time together. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and will absolutely be using Mary’s services again in the future.”
3. Ellen F.Star Sitter
“Ellen was fabulous! She kept me updated with photos and messages each day, and I came home to a very happy dog. He sometimes seems a bit stressed out after I’ve been away, but not with Ellen. He was obviously in very good hands with her. I’m grateful for her care and attention. I highly recommend!”
4. Maolin L.
“Maolin was a great caretaker for Nash. We were away on vacation for 10 days and she sent daily photos and videos as well as took Nash to the local dog park to play around. She really seemed to care a great deal for Nash as like she was her own. Would definitely use again and refer her to others!”
5. Dawn M.Star Sitter
“Very nice Sitter, we felt she took great care of our dog, kept us updated with messages and pics, quick to respond to any questions we had. She is an excellent choice in the Columbus area and we would use her again without question!!!”
6. Alexandria V.Star Sitter
“Juice seemed very happy during his stay! Alexandria is very responsive and sends a lot of pictures of the dogs playing around and having a good time. Would recommend and rebook her for any boarding!”
7. Hannah L.
“Second time Hannah has watched my Great Dane and she does absolutely wonderful with him! Highly recommend!”
8. Olivia E.
“Olivia was very responsive and professional. We were looking for a late booking for a spontaneous getaway and she was amazing! She took wonderful care of our headstrong Chessie named Guapo. She kept us updated with photos and their activities. We would trust her anytime we need a sitter again! Thank you Olivia!”
9. Emily B.
Star Sitter
“Emily was great! This was our first time using a sitter instead of a boarding facility. She was quick to respond to messages and sent pictures. Our girl came home rested and happy instead of stressed out and exhausted from no sleep. Thank you!”
10. Katie S.Star Sitter
“Katie took great care of Leo, and he seemed really comfortable in her care! We took him on our weekend trip to Columbus to have him nearby. The communication was great and the pictures were really delightful. Would definitely book again if we come to town again!”
11. Andrew M.
“My dog Bella has been cared for by Andrew twice now, and both times she’s been absolutely happy and well taken care of. The second time we went my dog got excited as we pulled up to the house, remembering what a good time she had during her last visit. Highly recommended!”
12. Amber S.Star Sitter
“Amber was a rockstar. We are always nervous to leave our senior chiweenie with anyone new because he is very skiddish. He opened up to Amber, and her family was patient as he took more time to become comfy around them. She took him on nice walks and followed the scheduled to a tee. We appreciate the constant communication and honesty Amber provided about Franklin during his stay. We will 100% book Amber again to care for our buddy.”
13. Summer R.
“Summer was amazing! She was accommodating and understanding when we issues with dropoff and pickup. Lucky had a wonderful time with her and her family. Will definitely have her again as a sitter”
14. Karl W.Star Sitter
“Karl is the best, and very knowledgeable about dog behavior. He sent photos of Phoebe every day during her stay with text updates, and gave us advice on training habits during our meet and greet. Board your dog at Karl's Dog BnB!”
15. Brynn K.Star Sitter
“This was my first time using Rover and Brynn was amazing! She was super communicative, send pictures and took great care of Basil! She really helped me out in a pinch- would use again 10/10!”
16. Cindy R.Star Sitter
“Cindy was perfect! She took my pup with only a few days notice, then sent me several pictures a day during the whole stay (like 5 days). Very quick to respond to any questions. Thank you!”
17. Michelle & Nicholas J.
“This was our second time with Michelle and Nick, they continue to treat Samson like he’s one of their own! We’ll continue to use them and would highly recommend them too”
18. Rayann S.Star Sitter
“Rayann was very friendly & warm & easy to communicate with. I’m appreciative of the care she provided for my kitten while my spouse and I traveled abroad for 2 weeks. I would surely recommend her services, and I will surely book her again in the near future.”
19. Sally B.Star Sitter
“I'm so glad we found Sally! She took great care of our pit bull Henry. She made accommodations for him, sent us daily updates, sent pictures every day, and even some videos. I could tell Henry was enjoying himself, I was afraid he wouldn't want to come home! She truly cares for him!”
20. Paige C.
“Paige and her wife took wonderful care of our cats on short notice! We will certainly book with them again if we need any future pet-sitting!”
