About: I have had dogs my entire life! I am an avid hiker and love to spoil dogs in plenty of walks. I work from home so your pet with have 24/7 care. My work schedule is pretty flexible to make sure to work in walks/exercise! I am flexible with same day scheduling and cancelations if needed. I do not take dogs overnight if I have not dog sat them before, or if they sleep in the bed. I love to play and interact with dogs. Play time and snuggles are my favorite time of day with my dogs, and will be the same with yours!

About: Owner of Panhandle Pet Care & Waste Removal. I offer professional pet care services to include POOPER SCOOPER services. I am licensed, insured and bonded for everyone's protection! I would love to meet you and discuss your family's needs! Pets are like children! it is my second nature to make sure those fur babies are well taken care of and need NOTHING! Your pets needs, wants and current routine is my top priority! While I cannot board your pets in my home, I am more than happy to visit your pet where they are most comfortable, IN THEIR HOME!!! This begins our relationship with safety and trust as they are in an environment where they are familiar. If your pup is extra skittish I will more than likely request to stop by a couple times before your departure date. This lets your pet know I am allowed to be in their home and I can be trusted. I will NEVER force myself on any animal, I ALWAYS let them come to me!

Clarissa was wonderful with my German Shepherd mix, Pancho! She came over a few days prior to meet him and ask about the walking neighborhood/Pancho’s personality around other dogs. She showed up on time and kept me updated every day. I will definitely be contacting Clarissa again when I go out of town! (:

Rebecca, did an outstanding job! She stopped by the house the day before to see if the dogs and her would get along, and they loved her. The next few days she came by and walked them while I was at work and sent pics of the pups on the walks. I will definitely recommend her to anyone in need of a dog sitter. James

About: We absolutely love caring for dogs and treat them like family just like we do with our own two sweet pups (🐶🐶). Your dog will be in loving hands, spoiled with attention, belly rubs, and plenty of playtime! Since I work from home full-time, I’m available every day to give your dog the care and companionship they need throughout the day. Whether it’s active play, calm snuggles, or keeping up with their routine, I’ve got it covered. I’m also very flexible and happy to work with your schedule and preferences because I know how important it is to make sure your pup is happy, safe, and loved while you’re away. 💕 Pet care is a natural part of our daily routine and something we truly enjoy. I have the flexibility to give pets the attention and care they deserve throughout the day whether that’s regular potty breaks, playtime, walks, or just some snuggles and companionship. I love incorporating pets into my schedule; they bring joy and structure to my day. Making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved is always a top priority for me. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I always aim to create a safe, loving, and stress-free environment. At home, pets are treated like part of the family lots of cuddles, playtime, regular walks, and a consistent routine to help them feel comfortable and secure. I make sure they have a cozy space, fresh water, and follow any specific instructions or feeding schedules. When I’m in a client’s home, I maintain their pet’s usual routine as closely as possible to minimize anxiety while they’re away. I’m respectful of the home, keep everything clean, and ensure the pets receive all the love, attention, and care they’re used to. Communication is also important to me. I always provide updates photos, and videos, so fur parents have peace of mind while they’re away.

About: *Where Your Pets Feel at Home, and You Feel at Ease* Hi! I’m a dedicated, full-time pet care professional offering both pet sitting and doggy daycare services. This isn’t just a side gig—it’s my passion and profession! Whether your furry friend needs a cozy place to stay while you're away or a fun-filled day of play, I provide a safe, loving environment where they’ll be treated like family. With experience caring for pets of all ages, special needs animals, and even non-traditional pets, I understand that every pet is unique. I also offer drop-in services, so your pets can stay comfortable in their familiar surroundings while still receiving top-quality care. What My Home Offers: 🏡 A Quiet, Private Space – My home is in a peaceful neighborhood, providing a calm environment for pets to relax and feel safe. 🐾 Freedom & Comfort – Pets can spend all their time with me or have their own space if they prefer. They have full access to my home, including a guest room if they need a private retreat. 🚪 Secure Outdoor Access – A doggy door leads to my brand-new, 8ft tall fenced-in yard, so pets can safely enjoy fresh air and playtime. 📹 Extra Safety Measures – A security camera monitors the fenced-in area, ensuring your pet is always safe while outside. 🏊 Supervised Pool Time – My pool is completely separate from the doggy door area, meaning pets are only around the pool when I’m there to supervise. 🐶 Tailored Care – Whether your pet thrives on structure or loves being part of the family, I can accommodate strict training routines or simply let them enjoy a homey atmosphere. 🕰️ 24/7 Attention – I’m available to your pet for their entire stay! Whether they have separation anxiety, trouble at night, or are still potty training, I’m here to provide patience, care, and consistency. 🤝 Safe Socialization – I only ever book multiple pets if I know they will get along, ensuring a comfortable and stress-free experience for everyone. Your pet’s happiness and well-being are my top priorities—because they deserve the best, and so do you! I offer doggy daycare and overnight boarding 7 days a week, with only a few exceptions for trips throughout the year. Typically, dogs are fed and walked twice a day, with lots of fun and playtime in between. If your pet follows a different routine, I’m happy to adjust to their specific needs! My home is equipped with a doggy door that provides 24/7 outdoor access to a secure yard enclosed by a 7-foot fence. This yard is separate from the pool area, ensuring the safety of your pet. The yard is monitored by a camera that alerts me and records when pups go outside, so I can keep an eye on them at all times. Dog walks are conducted safely, and pets are only allowed near the pool when I am present to supervise. I am always mindful of doors to ensure they do not escape. Our neighborhood is peaceful, so you can feel confident that your pet will stay relaxed and stress-free. My dog, Scroopy, is a gentle, friendly boy with no possessive or aggressive traits, and he loves having playdates! If you're looking for a house sitter to stay with your pet, we can discuss that as well. I take pride in meeting each animal's specific needs, knowing that every pet is unique. And if you're traveling, you'll receive daily photos and updates to stay connected with your furry friend!

About: I have had a variety of pets my entire life including dogs, cats, mice, hampsters, gerbils, lizards, and fish. I am the one my family and friends call when they go out of town to watch the house and take care of the pets. :) I am also an Uber driver, so I am extremely flexible to make sure your personal needs are met. I can drop in once a day, or as many times as necessary to make sure your fur-friends are behaving ;). Your fur-baby staying at my house? They're gonna get spoiled! We go to the pool, the sound, the parks, just about anywhere they allow dogs. I arrange play dates and we walk. Lots of love and attention! I do have 3 cats of my own who have free roam of my house. I do have a pet door for small animals, and a fenced in backyard.

About: I've been taking care of animals since I was a little kid, having dogs around me my whole life. I've helped train the family dogs, and earned the trust of even stubborn puppers everywhere I go. I'm able to pet-sit and walk around a part time schedule. I am free most other time and will take wonderful care of your pets. I will keep open communication with owners as to their pet's needs. I can care for sick or elderly dogs, help train puppies (not certified), and keep pets entertained.

About: Hi there! I'd love to help take care of your fur babies while you're away. I offer drop in visits for dogs and cats in the Shalimar/Eglin/FWB area. I also offer dog boarding in my home. If you're interested in requesting to board your dog I want to be certain we are a great fit for your pup. Please see below for details: -Your dog must be ok with other dogs (I personally have 2 large dogs) -Your dog must be ok with cats (I have 1 sassy cat) I do ask your dog be comfortable in a kennel for short periods for the first day or two(Approx 4hrs max at a time,I require this for when I have to leave the house for the first few days while the dogs are still getting to know each other, I want everyone to be safe) After comfort has been established and if you normally allow your dog to free roam and prefer it, that is no problem. We love to let our pups free roam. -I do work Mon-Fri but work 5 minutes away and always come home and hour for lunch I've been working with local rescues and shelters for years walking, caring for, and fostering animals. I've also watched many pets for friends and family. I have a full privacy fenced yard. I enjoy doing drop in visits for both cats and dogs and dog walking. I also love boarding dogs in my home. I love cats and can offer drop in visits in your home for them, however I am unable to board cats in my home(our cat isn't a fan of other cats) I have a military background and understand the challenges military pet owners face. I do have Eglin base access. If you're going on an extended TDY/deployment beyond 3 weeks reach out for special pricing. * I require a meet and greet prior to any boarding confirmation to ensure everyone is comfortable and gets along. The saftey and well being of your pets and mine is my #1 priority. I currently work full time during the day(Mon-Fri) , but am fortunate enough to work only a few minutes from home. I can do drop ins/walks in the morning/evenings. I also come home at lunch or could do drop in/walk during my lunch break if needed. If I'm caring for your pets in your home, I will ask your preferences. If I am boarding them, I allow animals to free roam the home while I am home. While I'm gone I generally kennel to ensure everyone's saftey since I'm not there to keep an eye on eveyone.(I can always make exceptions to this based on the dog, especially once I know eveyone is comfortable with each other) I do have a fully fenced backyard and a doggy door and we will also enjoy daily walks.

About: I have been around animals my whole life and currently have one dog, three cats (one senior with chronic illnesses/daily meds), four hermit crabs, one ball python, and 10 quail. In the past, I have cared for fish, snails, horses, rabbits, ferrets, a tarantula, and a variety of birds. I am open to watching animals of all kinds! I am able to provide drop in care any time on the weekends and morning/lunchtime/evening during the work week. I am also able to provide dog boarding in my home. I work Monday-Friday but my office is in the same neighborhood as my house - and is pet friendly! For drop in care, my goal is to provide care that keeps to the pets' regular schedule as much as possible in order to ensure they feel safe and cared for. I am able to medicate cats and dogs. For in home care, I am able to accommodate up to 2 dogs from the same household. I have a large, pet friendly house and fenced back yard. All boarding dogs must be cat friendly and good with other dogs.

I have used Ms. Kelly as a house/pet sitter for my 3 legged Shiba-Inu and my kitty for a number of years. She is very professional and friendly as well as an avid animal lover that shows through her interaction with my furry family members. She shows love to them as soon as she walks in to my home. I have tried other sitters, however, none seem to have the passion for animals as she does. I will never trust anyone else after finding Ms. Kelly and I recommend her to everyone I know who is looking for a house/pet sitter.

Dog walks are conducted safely, and pets are only allowed near the pool when I am present to supervise. I am always mindful of doors to ensure they do not escape. Our neighborhood is peaceful, so you can feel confident that your pet will stay relaxed and stress-free. My dog, Scroopy, is a gentle, friendly boy with no possessive or aggressive traits, and he loves having playdates! If you're looking for a house sitter to stay with your pet, we can discuss that as well. I take pride in meeting each animal's specific needs, knowing that every pet is unique. And if you're traveling, you'll receive daily photos and updates to stay connected with your furry friend!

I have known Melanie for over 20 years. During that time she has personally had both dogs and cats for pets. She has shown the utmost care and attention in taking responsibility for those pets. She is reliable, dependable and punctual. She truly is a pet lover and I would have no problems in leaving Melanie in charge of my pets if I needed additional care. She would be a great companion to whichever fur baby she would be tasked with taking care of. Jeff W.

Neo is rather exceptional at pet care. Daily, for the past several years, they have worked in an environment with 2 dogs and 7 cats. Understanding cat and dog body language is a major skill of theirs, de-stressing animals, stopping fights before they start, noticing the signs of an unwell animal and acting immediately on accordance of what the animal needs. They were very observant and aware to even slight changes in behavior

I cannot say enough about Vanessa! From the time she first started taking care of our 2 dogs and 1 cat to the last day she was tender and loving to our babies. We can always count on her to keep us updated with pictures and messages to ensure us that our pets are happy and safe. From walking our dogs, to caring for them when we are away from our home, she always gave us peace of mind. My husband and I highly recommend her for all your pet's needs :)

Joshua loves all animals! There isn’t a turtle he wouldn’t stop for crossing the road or a dog he wouldn’t stop to pet. He is responsible and caring. Joshua is attentive to a pet’s needs and has cared for animals of all ages.

Micheal is a great pet sitter. He is reliable and will provide the best care for your pet as it was his own. If he is available the next time we are out of town, we will definitely have him watch our pets again.

About: I have been around animals my whole life and currently have one dog, three cats (one senior with chronic illnesses/daily meds), four hermit crabs, one ball python, and 10 quail. In the past, I have cared for fish, snails, horses, rabbits, ferrets, a tarantula, and a variety of birds. I am open to watching animals of all kinds! I am able to provide drop in care any time on the weekends and morning/lunchtime/evening during the work week. I am also able to provide dog boarding in my home. I work Monday-Friday but my office is in the same neighborhood as my house - and is pet friendly! For drop in care, my goal is to provide care that keeps to the pets' regular schedule as much as possible in order to ensure they feel safe and cared for. I am able to medicate cats and dogs. For in home care, I am able to accommodate up to 2 dogs from the same household. I have a large, pet friendly house and fenced back yard. All boarding dogs must be cat friendly and good with other dogs.
