“Kim did an awesome job with our furry family. We have two dogs and two cats and taking care of them has its challenges but Kim did a great job keeping everyone on track, safe and snuggled. So relieved to have found her and would highly recommend!”

“Libah was amazing! During our meet and greet, she asked questions and took notes to make sure Trix was given the best care. She made sure to use Trix’s routine to ensure her happiness. Libah was great with communication while I was gone. I never had to worry about what was happening at home.”

“Christina was awesome! Stayed in contact with us and sent tons of pictures and videos while we were gone for a WEEK! 100% will be using her services again. Thank you so much, Christina! 🐶🐈⬛💕”


“Connie was a new house and pet sitter for us. It can be a bit stressful when finding someone new; however, I didn’t have to worry one bit! Connie was easy to get to know quickly and can tell she’s passionate for all animals. She left me feeling confident that the house and pets would be in very good hands. Professional, compassionate with great communication! Thank you!!!”

“Devynn was wonderful. I was on a cruise and didn’t have service so she made sure to keep in contact with my mom until I could check in. Mumfy seemed so happy. She sent pictures every day. I will definitely use her again.”

“Rabekah was fabulous. Responded quickly and professionally to all communications, very sweet with our dogs, and went above and beyond in so many ways. We have one difficult dog that she won over quickly, and was patient with any additional needs. Will definitely book again.”

“Kiersten was amazing at house sitting for my two young dogs! She was very thorough at keeping to their daily routine and sending updates with pictures. I highly recommend Kiersten and plan to rebook in the future.”


“McKayla was absolutely amazing while house-sitting and caring for my dog, Mable, and my cat, Kaiah. Mable is still a puppy with a ton of energy, so she can definitely be a handful, but McKayla was incredibly patient, attentive, and wonderful with her. She also took great care of Kaiah and made sure both pets were happy, comfortable, and well cared for while I was away. What really stood out was her communication. She sent so many photos and updates throughout my trip, which gave me complete peace of mind knowing my pets were in great hands. She was always easy to reach, quick to respond, and kept me informed the entire time. Since she stayed in my home, I also appreciated how respectful and responsible she was. Everything was clean, tidy, and exactly as I left it when I returned. Coming home to happy pets and a well-cared-for house made all the difference. I would absolutely book McKayla again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, communicative, and caring pet sitter. She went above and beyond, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience.”


About: Hi, I’m Gretchen! I recently moved back to the Sarasota area and currently have a flexible schedule with plenty of time to give your pet the attention and care they deserve. I don’t have any pets of my own at the moment, so your pet will be the center of attention and treated like house royalty. I’ve been caring for animals since I was a teen, offering dog walking, drop-in visits, and full-time sitting. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual needs, including feeding routines, medications, and any special requests. I can’t wait to meet and care for your four-legged family members 🫶🏻 (The only 1 star review was from someone who wasn’t willing to pay!)

“Alina is super responsive and communicative, she regularly provides photo updates and clearly loves animals. My dog Cash was cared for by her extremely well and help put my mind at ease while I was away. Highly recommend!”

About: I have taken care of pets and been around them since I was 5. My family and friends usually rely on me to watch over their pets when they are gone. I just graduated high school and I’m just looking for something that will keep me busy during summer. I am barely ever busy so my schedule is very flexible. I have a fenced in yard and a VERY friendly dog that will he keep your furry buddy company. I am also able to commute very easily.
About: I've taken care of cats, dogs, and exotics for many years. Well versed in pet care for any breed and kind of animal. Big fan and friend of all pets alike. I am currently an online college student, so I have plenty of time to play and care for your furry family members, with extra love! I have a very friendly but shy chihuahua who would be separated from your furry friend in my home. I can uphold any rules you may follow in your own home for your pets as need be.
“Kathy did a fantastic job with my dog Kylie. Kylie is almost 13 and takes lots of pills for heart issues, etc. so she needs to pee all the time. Kathy was on top of it. Many times outside to let Kylie do her thing. She stayed overnight at my house so Kylie was not alone. Kylie and the house were perfect when we returned. I would totally use Kathy again, and recommend her for others. Thank you Kathy.”

About: I grew up in a household with eight cats and four dogs, my parents were big into animals. I had my own bulldog for a number of years (she passed away recently) and currently have two cats of my own. I’ve picked up more dog poop and cleaned out more cat litters than I can count over the years.. I work entirely from remote, so my availability is always open to housesit or pet sit. I can be gone weeks at a time without it being a real burden. My cats have an automatic feeder and automatic litter cleaner so I don’t have to worry about them when I go away. I also have two roommates so they help take care of them when I’m out so they don’t get lonely. I walk, clean up after, feed, groom, even bathe, client’s animals. And I have it pretty easy with my current cats, they have an automatic feeder and a litter box that cleans itself automatically. So they’re pretty easy-going.

“Tracy was wonderful with our dog and cat. Our dog is blind and anxious and she administered all his medications and helped him feel at ease. She took wonderful care of our home and even left it cleaner than when we left!”

“My dogs warmed up to Kennadi right away. While I was away, Radar hurt her leg and could not get up. Kennadi handled the situation until I get back. I would be happy to have her house sit in the future.”

“We couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter! Erin took amazing care of our two golden retrievers while keeping our home spotless. She was punctual, organized, and thoughtful in every way — from brushing the dogs and vacuuming up their fur to sending just the right number of photo updates so we always felt connected without being overwhelmed. Our pups clearly adored her and were relaxed and happy when we got home. It’s such a relief knowing they were loved and well cared for. We’d welcome Erin back anytime and can’t recommend her highly enough!”

The moment Mary walked into the yard both of my dogs sat at her feet in total comfort ( they can be picky). She is a total delight to get to know and to work with and to take care of your fur babies. She’s very responsible, communicative, conscientious. I will ask her to pet sit again and again. I highly recommend Mary as a dependable pet sitter.
Nick stayed in our house to watch our mini dachshund while we were away for 5 days. This was the first time we had left her like this and with a stranger so we were nervous. Nick was a great communicator, sent tons of photos, and followed directions well. We came home to a happy pup!

We are so grateful to have found Stephanie. Our sweet poodle Justice came home the day before from surgery and we were nervous to leave her with a stranger. However Stephanie's calm presence and obviously love for animals came through and Justice was very open to her. Stephanie communicated with us while we were away as well as shared photos. I look forward to having Stephanie come again or Justice going to her home.

We had a last minute need for a sitter and our usual sitter was not available. I am always nervous about using a new sitter, but Jill’s profile seemed like she could be a good fit. She came for a meet and greet that day, and after meeting her in person I felt comfortable with her sitting for us. Jill spent the weekend with our dog and did a great job. She followed our instructions perfectly, making sure our dog was safe, fed, and well cared for while we were gone. We received photo updates and she was quick to respond to our texts. Our house was in perfect condition when we arrived home. She’s a trustworthy, calm, and responsible person who I don’t hesitate to recommend. We will book with Jill again!

There isn’t enough room to express how amazing Nicole is! She went above and beyond to make sure this dog mama felt secure with leaving her animals! Pictures every day along with amazing communication. She even left holiday cards with pictures of our babies. Nicole is the only person I want to watch my “kids” from here out. My only concern is my animals might start to love her more than my husband and I.

Isabella did a great job looking after Lincoln(dog) and Oliver(cat) while we were away. They were well taken care of and she gave them a lot of attention. She sent lots of photos to reassure that they were doing just fine! My family and I are looking to have her take care of Lincoln and Oliver again really soon! Thank you Isabella! (:

Sophia did a terrific job dog sitting our very active terrier in our home for 6 days. She was loving towards him and sent us daily reports and cute photos. She also picked up our mail and newspapers and left our house neat and clean. We can highly recommend Sophia!

I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter! Danielle stayed overnight with our girl and was absolutely wonderful! Communication was great throughout the trip. I got regular updates and never had to worry. She went above and beyond taking care of our home and taking out the garbage for us. I was able to relax and enjoy my vacation knowing Juju was home and in good hands. Highly recommend and will definitely book again!
