“My little chihuahua had a great time with Nicole, Scroopy, and their family! He typically gets separation anxiety but not with Nicole, he had lots of fun. Will definitely use her again :-)”
“Ana is the greatest! She cares for my young lab like she is part of her family. I always get wonderful pictures and videos every day and that makes travel and being away so much easier. My Maggie is so happy in her home and with the friends that she gets to play with. She is spoiled beyond even what I do for her. I can't recommend or say enough great things about Ana, she truly loves animals.”
“Gravy the mutt came home happy and well loved. He has only been elsewhere three times in his almost three years of age. One of those times he came home piddling on everything and we haven’t let him elsewhere until now. Erika and Jason did a phenomenal job of treating him like family and we are so very thankful. Highly recommend and will use again 💕💕💕”
“Trixy loves going to Mrs. Sadie’s house so much, that she never wants to come home. Lol She loves all the spoiling she gets there, and see her friends. We absolutely love Sadie!”
“My girl, Cherry, is a frequent flyer at Gabriela's house. I have peace of mind knowing that she's in an environment where she's taken care of and loved like she's a part of the family. Yes, loved - I truly believe this. Gabriela and her kiddos know Cherry's likes, loves, and her silly quirks. They include her in family outings and activities. When she's not sure about something, like a food item treat, she reaches out. Communication is fantastic! I dont like going on trips without our girl, but Gabriela makes it easier with all of the picture, video, and text pupdates. If you're looking for a sitter who will take good care of your doggo, Gabriela may be a great fit! I highly recommend her ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Macie was so amazing. I love how Bleu feel like he was right at home. He was so comfortable around her and her family and that had made me feel so good inside. I would highly recommend Macie to watch your fur baby. I will definitely have her to watch Bleu again. Macie, thank you so much! 🤗”
About: Is your dog like Marley? I will take the wildest of the wild to the most tamed. I've owned and cared for dogs most of my life they truly have different personalities that usually mirrors their owners. I enjoy being outdoors and exploring different parks around the city. Nothing beats the company a dog provides. I've owned three dogs in my life. My first was a Brittany Spaniel he was super energetic sweetie even until the end of his life. His best friend came later, a Beagle names Shiloh she was a prancing princess who definitely made sure to let him know who was in charge especially around feeding time, when I had to separate them. And finally Roscoe the "Gentle Giant Gentleman"; A Doberman whom i have claimed as my own although my boyfriend is his actual "owner". I’m available, to pet sit right now, I am a Business marketing student and I work part time at a vegetarian restaurant. I love to ride mu bike most evenings if there’s nothing else. I live by myself, your baby will get a lot of quality time with me. I live in a 4 plex apartment with a security gate, my apartment is sizable for a medium dog to move about freely
“This is my second time booking with Robert and everytime he does an awesome job. My anxious dog who is scared of humans greeted him everytime he came home and even let him pet her. He is a great dog sitter!”
“He was so good to my two cats while I was away! And very understanding when my travel plans changed. My cats took to him quickly and were snuggling in all the photos I got. Wonderful sitter”
“Cheryl was so sweet and Daisy was a happy girl when we picked her up. She took us on last minute and we couldn’t be more thankful! She sent lots of pictures throughout the stay and kept us updated. ☺️”
“Margaret was amazing with my fur babies. She sent plenty of updates including photos and videos. Very easy to communicate with also. If I could give 100 stars I would. Thank you for taking great care of of our little pack.”
“Micah was very communicative in the process. This was my first time using Rover and she definitely made my experience a great one. She assisted with boarding my little pup ,Cooper, for two days and was very accommodating with pick-up and drop-off times. She frequently updated me with videos and pictures of Coop living his best life. Cooper had so much fun playing with their dogs. I never seen him interact so well with other dogs that’s bigger than him. I highly recommend using Micah if you are in the Fort Walton area! She’s definitely my go-to option!”
“Jen was amazing with my 2 pups! She took such great care of them and even sent pictures daily letting me know how everything was going. Her communication was excellent and she made sure she knew all the details before I left. She adores all animals and it shows with how she takes care of them. I recommend her for all your pet sitting needs! Outstanding service!”
“Alex is Amazing! She's been taking wonderful care of my 13 y/o pup Courage both in day care & boarding, as if Courage were her dog. Alex is very attentive and kept me aware of Courage's behavior throughout the days. If you're looking for someone to take care of your pup with complete faith, look no further than Alex! 10 out of 10 Highly Recommend! 😍”
“Andrew and Maria are amazing. Our dog bonded with Maria instantly; she is a true “dog whisperer” and has a profound gift with animals. They both did an excellent job caring for our dog. You won’t find a nicer couple to look after your pet in the area. I highly recommend them!!!”
“I adore Jeannette and so did my fur baby! I felt completely confident leaving my dog with her. I was pleased with all the updates and the photos she sent me. Jetta was so happy and loved her dog. They had the best time playing together and going on walks. I would absolutely recommend Jeannette!”
“David and Krysta were so sweet to our Cooper! Communication and photos while we were away were an added bonus! We highly recommend and will plan to use them again if we are in the area!”
