About: I am new to the business of dog walking and dog sitting, but I have been around dogs the majority of my life. Growing up my family had three dogs, and currently I have a seven year old rescue dog, named Arya, whom I had adopted in 2019. I have lived in Tallahassee for almost 8 years now, so I am very familiar with the area. Looking forward to this experience! While I used to be employed as a TA at FSU when I was a graduate student, I am currently unemployed and searching for research positions as a biologist. My days consist currently of job applications, so I hace a flexible schedule. My own dog is a mutt, mixed with pitbull and Rottweiler, so I know there is no such thing as "a bad breed." I will treat all dogs with the same love and care.
“Iomar took excellent care of our cat and guinea pigs! We received lots of adorable photos while we were away, and it was clear they were well taken care of. We would book again!”
About: You can take comfort in knowing your fur babies will always be well taken care of with me! I have 3+ years of experience working with dogs and cats of all ages. I also have experience administering medicine, crate training, and bathing! You’re guaranteed lots of picture and video updates from me, and your pet will receive lots of love and quality time! I am a part-time foster parent for the animal shelter and worked/volunteered there for a while, so I have experience not only dealing with varying ages of pets, but also different temperaments, sizes, and personalities! I am taking summer classes at FSU, which takes up about an hour of my day around lunch time. My schedule outside of classes is conveniently flexible and very open, so I always have plenty of time to ensure your pet is receiving the high level of care and attentiveness they deserve! I treat every fur baby as if they’re my own, and can ensure every pet owner that their baby will be kept on their scheduled feeding and walking routine, along with lots of playtime in between!
“Alexandrea and our cat Bruce made friends on the first visit. Alexandrea also stayed for a good 30 minutes (Check-In) and made sure Bruce was fat and happy and also played with him while we were gone. Past experiences is was in and out in 15 minutes it seemed from others. I will be looking for Alexandrea on our next trip for sure!”
“Kelly was able to schedule a drop-in visit at short notice so I could travel to see family for the day. She was responsive, professional and attentive. I was able to enjoy my trip without concern. Moki was calm and happy when I returned. Will use Kelly again, and recommend.”
“Lillyana did a great job of feeding, changing the litter, and playing with our two cats while we were out of town for Thanksgiving. We will definitely trust her to watch them again in the future!”
“Melanie is such a caring caretaker for my cat and such a reliable professional. Every day, she sent me updates and pictures. She always goes above and beyond. My furry baby is always happy with her!”
“Taylor was excellent with Maggie. She also handled a key issue (totally my fault) calmly when I was definitely not calm since we were literally taking off on a 5.5 hour flight. 100% would recommend and will have Taylor take care of Maggie again!”
“Mackenzie is the best pet sitter I’ve ever booked! She is always perfectly on time and super thorough with her texting throughout the day. Super flexible and always works with my crazy schedule. Also such a trooper, when I had another sitter cancel on me the day before our scheduled visit she was able to fill in on short notice! Would absolutely recommend.”
“Can't recommend Jordan highly enough. She clearly loves animals, and she did a great job of taking care of The Bandit and keeping us updated. She also came by beforehand to meet him and to make sure she understood our instructions, and was generally very accommodating despite our first booking being on relatively short notice. Will definitely be booking again :)”
“Jillian was wonderful! She came by to meet my cats and learn their routine before our booking. While I was away, I knew they were in wonderful hands. She sent lots of pictures and videos.”
“Katherine has been awesome! This has been super easy and she has taken such great care of my babies, has been on time each visit and sends pictures. Highly recommend her!”
About: My background combines the physical experience of handling 50lb+ breeds with the delicate care required for medical maintenance. I grew up with Labs and currently care for a Pitbull with health complications, which means I’m as comfortable on a brisk walk as I am administering treatment or monitoring symptoms. I bring a reliable, level-headed approach to caregiving that ensures every dog—regardless of size or health status—is safe and well-attended. I am available at all times Monday through Sunday, with the sole exception of Tuesdays. As a recent graduate, I have a very flexible schedule for the next two months before I relocate to begin my graduate studies in the medical field. I’ve shared my life with dogs for as long as I can recall, growing up primarily with Labradors. While I’m very comfortable managing larger breeds, I truly love dogs of all sizes. Currently, I’m caring for my 50-pound Pitbull through a cancer diagnosis, which has given me a lot of experience with specialized care and a deep appreciation for the bond we share with our pets.
“Erika was great with my dog! She kept in touch frequently, provided lots of pics, and made me feel at ease leaving my girl for the week! Definitely recommend her for pet care!”
“Jacqueline took excellent care of our dogs. They were always excited to see her and we loved seeing the pictures she took during each visit. I would absolutely use her again and would recommend her.”

Loved her service. She was always on time and played with Hazel (my bunny) when she showed for the drop in visits. Followed instructions well and completed what was asked of her. I really appreciated the pictures and journal cards I received for every visit, especially since it was my first time leaving Hazel alone with a sitter.
Mackenzie is the best pet sitter I’ve ever booked! She is always perfectly on time and super thorough with her texting throughout the day. Super flexible and always works with my crazy schedule. Also such a trooper, when I had another sitter cancel on me the day before our scheduled visit she was able to fill in on short notice! Would absolutely recommend.
Mimi was the best choice for our fur babies. They immediately fell in love with her and she treated them as her own. I would 100% recommend her for any cat sitting inquiries. She always kept us posted with how they were doing and sent us loads of super cute photos of them. The cats were very happy to be under her care. Thank you so much!!!
Fantastic sitter! Shes watched my kitty twice and went above and beyond this second visit. My cat had an accident and she cleaned it all and washed the blanket. Spent extra time with her and gave her plenty of attention. Louisa is very communicative when stopping by, keeps you updated on what's going on. Highly recommend!

Lacy was beyond wonderful with our old boy, RazzBo. He is a persnickety old boy, very set in his ways and not used to strangers - but Lacy worked her magic with him and all went perfectly as planned. When we returned home, everything was just as it should be and he was calm and a happy-to-see-you cat, ripping around and playing with his ball with us within a half an hour. We are elated, and very happy how Rover and Lacy made our absence so tolerable with the pictures, visit reports and chats. Thank you all for this service - it is wonderful.
ryleigh is amazing. she is a cat whisperer both of mine loved her even the shy one! she sent me amazing pictures everyday which i looked forward to opening and was super communicative and punctual about her visits. she made me feel so relieved during my trip being away from my cats would definitely book with her again!
