“This was our first time leaving our very high energy dog with someone besides family and Carly was absolutely amazing! Her communication and level of care made us feel so comfortable while we were away. Our dog Rudy was worn out when we got back home and I know he is going to be so excited to go back! I would highly recommend Carly to care for pup, she’s the best!”

“Ambar was FANTASTIC with Mist (my 66lb greased lightning, teething, reactive escape artist). My dog is a high drive handful & a half, but Ambar took excellent care of her & kept her away from the triggers to her berzerker mode. She also let Mist have high octane zoomies to her heart's content in a securely fenced backyard. I got LOTS of happy pup pics & was able to actually relax on vacation. Highly recommend! 😍”

“HIGHLY recommend this lovely home for your pets! My 8 month old Golden Retriever puppy was very well taken care of, received lots of love and playtime and came home so sleepy from all of her activities! Even though I missed my pup, they sent me so many photos and videos to let me know she was having a great time. She also came home smelling fresh and clean with a cute little bandana. Thank you so much for taking such good care of her!”

“I had a wonderful experience with John! He was friendly, communicative, and very flexible with schedule. He kept me updated with regular messages and sent pictures of Buster, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. It was clear that Buster was well cared and happy. I will definitely use him again in future!”

“We had a great experience with Zachary and his mom! They took such good care of our dog. He was very nice, communicative, and clearly they have a genuine love for animals.”

“Ariana took great care of my pup, Toby, and was able to accommodate us late minute. He had a blast in her care and you can tell that she genuinely cares and treats them like her own. I will definitely use her for future needs.”

“Jennifer is the best. My dog Ghost enjoyed himself and I was able to check in on him at any time. I recommend for anyone who’s looking for a sitter for their pet. Very safe and fun environment. Look forward to booking you again!”

“Nathalia is the absolute best. Extremely Caring, sweet, and vert attentive. I received multiple updates with photos daily. Will love to leave my fur baby with her in the future!”

“Kristin was amazing with my little fur baby! She took care of her like she was her own, and it was such a wonderful experience. She has the perfect setup for dogs, and I felt completely comfortable knowing my pup was in great hands. Kristin kept me updated, gave her lots of love and attention, and made sure she was happy and well cared for. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!”


“Michelle was great! She watched my dog last minute, she kept me updated on her and how she was doing, even gave her a bath (with permission). We will be using her again for future sitting. Thanks so much!”

“Cowboy had a great first stay with Dana & Jared! Dana sent daily updates with lots of pictures of Cowboy settling in while in their home and out exploring during their walks. I loved seeing him become more comfortable in each update. It is great to know he is well-cared for in a safe environment while I am away.”

“Again Marti knocked it out of the park and was fabulous with Hershey! She kept me well informed in regards to how she was doing! We love Marti and so lucky to have her in our life!”

“Michelle and her family took great care of our dog while we were on vacation. They gave him lots of love and sent us updates on him consistently. Thank you!”

“Renna is Amazing dog sitter!She takes excellent care of our Koko kept us updated throughout the stay, and made us feel completely at ease. Koko was happy and well cared for. Highly recommend, and we’ll definitely book her again and again . Renna and her beautiful daughter are so sweet love them both”


About: I am a local school teacher with a lifelong passion for animals. I’ve always been an animal lover and have had a variety of pets including dogs, cats, snakes, bearded dragons, and leopard geckos. Up until two year’s ago, I’ve always had at least one dog in my home and am very familiar with senior dog care, including administering any medications needed. Coming home to a dog is one of the BEST feelings and I’ve been missing it since my dog passed. Rest assured, your dog will get so much LOVE, SNUGGLES, PLAYTIME, and PETS during their stay. For years, I have been the go-to pet sitter for my friends and family, frequently managing long-term house sits and care routines that last multiple weeks at a time. Your furry family member will be in safe, responsible, and highly reliable hands. I have a 6 year old who is familiar with big dogs and loves to join in the fun and responsibility of taking care of a fur baby. He LOVES to snuggle just as much as I do! We have a large fenced in yard, quiet neighborhood, and dog park just down the street. My teaching schedule is a massive perk for your pet! Because my school day wraps up early, I am home by mid-afternoon and fully available for the rest of the day. My routine allows me to provide consistent, structured care, including early evening walks, plenty of playtime, and endless couch cuddles. As an educator, I naturally bring patience, clear communication, and a calm environment to my pet sitting. Whether your dog needs a high-energy walk to burn off steam or just a warm lap to snooze on while I prep lessons, I tailor my care to their specific routine. I look forward to giving your pet a fun, safe, and stress-free stay! As a school teacher, my life runs on a highly structured, predictable schedule, which is perfect for pets! Because my school day starts and ends early, your pet will enjoy a consistent routine every single day. My mornings begin early, allowing plenty of time for a morning potty break or short walk before I head to school. I am out of the house during standard school hours, but because teachers get out earlier than standard corporate employees, I am back home by mid-afternoon around 3:30 pm. Once I am home, my evening belongs completely to your pet. The rest of my day is dedicated to long afternoon walks, playtime, and couch cuddles while I grade papers or prep lessons and play with my 6 year old son in our backyard. My weekends are completely free and dedicated entirely to pet care. Additionally, during school breaks (summer, spring break, and winter holidays), my availability opens up 24/7, making me a perfect match for your long-term vacation needs! As a school teacher and a parent to a gentle, animal-loving 6-year-old, our home runs on structure, kindness, and clear boundaries. We love hosting furry guests and treat them like members of our own family! Because of my background in education and parenting, safety is my absolute top priority. My 6-year-old has been thoroughly taught how to properly interact with dogs, respect their space, and read their body language. We practice "active supervision," meaning your pet and my child are never left unattended together. In the past 3 years we have lost both our dogs (2 large catahoula leopard dogs). My son grew up around them and has learned how to care for pets. We have missed having a dog in our house and are eager to care for tour dog and give them all the love. Your dog will get the best of both worlds here: an eager, fun playmate in my child, and a calm, reliable routine with me. After we all get home in the mid-afternoon, our evenings are filled with backyard play, neighborhood walks, and cozy family time. If your dog loves children, they will feel like they are at a premier vacation camp filled with affection and attention! To ensure every stay is stress-free, our home features a fenced yard, baby gates, and a dedicated pet room. If your dog ever needs a quiet break to eat or nap undisturbed, we have dedicated, child-free spaces set up just for them.
“Excellent care takers for my senior German ❤️ received updates every day, videos and pictures, she knew how to comfort my German when he did not want to eat his food. If ever in the area of Orlando, I would definitely book with Yaine again and definitely recommend her!!”

“We left our dog with Nathaniel for more than two weeks and he took great care of him! He sent us updates and took care of him like his own. I would absolutely use Nathaniel for any future needs.”

“Renee and family were extremely welcoming to our dog, Whiskey. They kept him on his schedule with walks, meals, and even medication. He got lots of love and attention and made himself at home. While we were away, Renee kept in touch with updates and pictures. I am so grateful that this wonderful family have Whiskey a home while we traveled. I would absolutely send him back to Renee and family any time and recommend them to anyone.”

“Highly recommend, Kymry! She made us feel comfortable leaving our fur baby for a few days. She provided updates multiple times a day and sent photos daily. She really showed love towards him, which made our hearts happy. Check her out. You won't be disappointed.”

Jesse and Kelly are amazing. We took a road trip with our dog and we did not expect to find such a responsive, flexible and accommodating dog day care. If you are in town with your pup you can rest easy knowing Jesse and Kelly will take care of them. We dropped off really early at 630a and picked up 10:30. We felt at ease leaving our dog with them. Thank you so much.

Melissa was amazing! She took wonderful care of Rosie while I was out of town. She kept me updated with messages and pictures throughout the week, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. Rosie looked happy, relaxed, and well cared for the entire time. It was clear that Melissa and her daughter treated Rosie like part of the family. I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter, and I will definitely book with her again. Highly recommend! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Rudy had his 2nd stay with Carly, this one being for an extended period of time as my husband and I were getting married! Our dog Rudy is a high energy Velcro dog to say the least and he absolutely LOVES staying with Carly and her family. Carly does an exceptional job with communicating, giving updates, and most importantly, caring for our puppers needs! I love that we can leave and feel at ease leaving Rudy with someone we know is going to truly care for him. We love Carly and will continue to book with her, 1000% recommend her 🥰

"We are so incredibly grateful we found Elivette and her family for our dog, Zoey! Leaving her for the first time, was tough, but Elivette and her family made us feel completely at ease. They were incredibly reliable and communicative, sending us photos and text updates about Zoey. It was evident in every picture that our dog was happy or relaxed, not stressed at all. We came home to a happy and healthy dog. We highly recommend their services and will definitely be using them again!"
