About: I make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or just extra cuddles, your dog is always in good hands with me. Since I’m not currently working a full-time job, I have a very open and flexible schedule. This allows me to give dogs consistent attention throughout the day. I’m able to be fully present and make sure each pet gets plenty of care, playtime, and companionship. In my home, I make sure the space is clean, pet-friendly, and supervised at all times. In a client’s home, I respect their space while giving their pet the same level of care, attention, and affection they’re used to. My goal is always to make pets feel secure, happy, and right at home.
About: I have hands-on experience providing loving and responsible care for pets of all sizes, including dogs, cats, and small animals. My responsibilities have included feeding, walking, bathing, administering medication, and offering companionship to ensure each pet feels safe and happy. I’ve also worked with pets who have special needs and dietary restrictions. Whether it’s an energetic puppy or a shy senior cat, I tailor my care to fit their personality. I understand how important it is for pets to feel at home, and I take pride in keeping them active, healthy, and loved while their owners are away. My daily pet care routine includes morning walks, feeding according to each pet’s schedule, cleaning up after them, and giving them attention and playtime throughout the day. I check water bowls regularly, administer any needed medications, and monitor behavior for signs of stress or illness. On a weekly basis, I do light grooming like brushing, bathing if needed, washing bedding, and ensuring their environment is clean and safe. I also spend quality time bonding with each pet to build trust and comfort, making sure they feel secure and loved whether it’s a short visit or long-term care. Whether caring for pets in my home or a client’s, I always create a safe, clean, and loving environment. I follow the pet’s specific routine, including feeding schedules, exercise needs, medication, and playtime. In my home, I provide cozy sleeping areas and constant supervision. In a client’s home, I respect their space and ensure the pet stays comfortable in their familiar surroundings. I keep owners updated with photos and notes, and I treat every pet as if they were my own—patiently, gently, and with lots of love and attention.

About: Hi! I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life and truly can’t imagine a home without them. I started training animals at the age of 16, which helped me learn how to understand different personalities, energy levels, and needs. Our home is full of love—we have two sweet doodles who are part of our family, and two children who absolutely adore animals and enjoy helping give them attention and care. Pets in our home are treated like family, with plenty of patience, affection, and playtime. We are kind, loving people who take pet care seriously. Whether your pet needs extra cuddles, structured care, or just a safe and happy place while you’re away, we’ll make sure they feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for at all times. I work from home, which gives me a very flexible daily schedule and allows me to be present with pets throughout the day. Because I’m home most of the time, pets receive plenty of attention, supervision, potty breaks, playtime, and affection. In my home, pets are treated like family. I don’t believe in isolating animals—pets are welcome on the couch, in the bed, and anywhere they feel comfortable. I believe cuddles, affection, and feeling safe are just as important as food and walks, so your pet will get plenty of love and attention while staying with us. They will be allowed to play in our large fence yard and pool. When caring for pets in someone else’s home, I follow instructions exactly as requested. I respect your routines, rules, and preferences so your pet’s care stays consistent and stress-free. Whether that means crate time, specific feeding schedules, or house rules, I make sure everything is done the way you want.
About: I have been taking care of dogs, cats and even horses since the age of 9. From drop ins, dog walking, overnights and even puppy classes I have worked with dogs of all shapes and sizes. I have potty trained, crate trained, and taught basic commands to both puppy and adult dogs. I have cared for senior dogs and have experience giving meds and care for post surgery/medical procedure. From the time I was a child I have loved being trusted to care for neighbors and friends animals while they were away. No animal is off limits as I love them all! I look forward to meeting and working with you and yours! I am currently staying at home while my husband works so my schedule is very open. Every day of the week is a possibility for drop ins or overnight care. I live in a home with plenty of space to crate your baby if they stay the night, ensuring their safety and ours. I currently own a 75lb goldendoodle who loves playing with other dogs. My neighborhood is incredibly dog friendly and is lined on a paved circle perfect for walking dogs. I usually do an AM and PM walk to allow dogs to potty, along with intermittently taking them out throughout the day. Most play time happens inside where there is a much lower risk of escape or overheating.
“Elise was amazing! She sent lots of pictures and provided updates in the morning and afternoon/evening. Our sweet girl is exhausted and we know she was well taken care of ?. We will for sure be booking with Elise again. Highly recommend!”

Julia provided a safe and fun 1 week vacation for my puppy who is a 19 month old golden retriever. Julia’s 2 Goldens provided so much play time with my girl that she is now missing her new buddies. Daily videos and pictures put me at ease since this is only the 3rd time my pup had been away from me. I highly recommend JULIA and I will book future trips with her for sure!

Margaret took amazing last minute care of our dog Ollie when we had a mix up with our planned pet care. She sent frequent pictures and we could tell that she wanted to make sure he was comfortable. We got him back very happy and content. We will definitely use Margaret again in Tallahassee.

I can’t thank Cambria enough for taking such amazing care of Sunny. Sunny is a Dachshund with special needs, he’s paraplegic due to a spinal condicion, and requires extra care, like diaper changes. Cambria handled everything with so much attention, patience, and care. She also kept me updated with daily photos and videos, just as we agreed, which gave me so much peace of mind. It’s very clear that she truly loves animals. I’m so grateful to have found someone I can fully trust with my dog and would highly recommend her to anyone! 😊

Justin did a wonderful job boarding my lil lady Luna. He always asked the right questions and kept Luna active. Justin was even able to clip Luna’s nails, which is normally a fight with her. You can tell he has a sincere kindness when it comes to animals. Luna enjoyed her time with Justin. I will definitely book with Justin in the future.
