Lydia and Emmitt watched our dog Luna for almost 2 weeks and we couldn't have been happier. We received lots and lots of pictures and updates which we loved 💜 and they really went above and beyond not only pampering our pup but also leaving the house in better and cleaner condition than before. In addition they left us the sweetest note and our dog looked entirely happy and relaxed when we returned.

Melissa as terrific. Very caring, punctual and communicative. Our 19-year-old cat gets very stressed whenever we're away, and it usually shows for days after we return. But not this time. She's a happy cat, just like we never left. We'll definitely be booking Melissa again!

So thankful we found J! She took amazing care of our dog. Mail was brought in, house was clean, and even washed the sheets and made the guest bed! Daily updates and photos were a bonus. Our dog looked so happy on his adventures! Will definitely use again.

About: I worked at a dog daycare as a Canine Coach and Lead for almost two years, where I cared for dogs of all sizes, breeds, ages, and energy levels in a fast-paced environment. I also have over 15 years of personal pet care experience, so being around animals has always been a big part of my life. As a USF student with an active lifestyle, I enjoy keeping dogs engaged through walks, playtime, and attention while also making sure they feel safe and comfortable. I’m patient, dependable, and attentive to each dog’s individual needs, whether that means helping energetic puppies burn off energy or giving older dogs a calmer, more relaxed experience. I understand how important trust and communication are when leaving your pet with someone, and I always treat every dog like my own. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine, especially over summer break while I’m home from USF. I have a flexible schedule and enjoy staying active, so dog walking, playtime, and spending time with animals is something I genuinely enjoy doing throughout the week. I do have a few trips planned during the summer, but I always keep my calendar updated and only accept bookings when I know I can fully dedicate my time and attention to each pet. Reliability and communication are very important to me, and I want pet owners to feel confident their dogs are in good hands. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on creating a safe, comfortable, and stress-free environment while keeping the pet’s normal routine as consistent as possible. I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully regarding feeding schedules, walks, medications, crate routines, or any special care needs. I have experience working with dogs of different sizes, breeds, personalities, and energy levels from my time working at a dog daycare, so I understand the importance of patience, supervision, and reading animal behavior. I also believe communication and trust are extremely important, so I make sure owners stay updated with messages and photos so they can feel confident their pets are being well cared for while they’re away.

What can I say? This girl did a great job with my little cooper. She is very communicative and took inactive to feed cooper when I couldn’t respond. This is what you want. Someone to take care of your dog like it’s her own. Thank you

About: I have been pet sitting since I was 15 and over the years I have gained the hearts of many families and their fur babies. I know how to read animals body language, gain the animals trust Before going to school I will always check up on any animal I am taking care of and after school I will go straight to take care of the animals and let them out. Before bed I will let the animals out to use the bathroom I will follow the list the owners give me and if the owners says I need to sleep at their house I will to make sure their animals are safe and happy. When caring for my animals at home I always makes sure they have fresh water, food and enough love

Donna is amazing!!! She really went above and beyond caring for our babies (Fenway and Baxter). She was so kind with them, brought them to their favorite dog parks, exercised them, cuddled with them and cared for them like they were her own. I trust her and would recommend her 100%. I'm so happy we found her. ?

About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all ages, from energetic puppies to calm seniors. I focus on making pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while keeping their routines consistent. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or quiet companionship, I treat every pet like my own. I m a full time employee as a school teacher so I am off by 2pm everyday and free for the entire weekend. I will be able to handle your pets care with consistency and dependability. I have a comfortable home with a fenced in yard. I have a dog that does very well with others and loves playing with new friends so your pet will have plenty of company. My home is my pets’ home , they are allowed on furniture and beds so that they can feel comfortable and at ease. I have trails nearby, so there is plenty of new places to explore!

Jillian was beyond amazing. We had some schedule changes and she rolled with the punches and was there to look after our home and Dog. She sent photos periodically to let us know he was doing great but also didn’t overwhelm us while we were away. we will definitely be having her back.

McKayla kept us updated with regular photos and messages, which really gave us peace of mind while we were away. Buster, who can be a bit needy, warmed up to her quickly, and Trixie absolutely adored her! It was obvious they were both happy and loved while in her care. We highly recommend McKayla to anyone looking for a responsible and caring dog sitter. She treated Buster and Trixie like her own, and we’ll definitely be asking her to watch them again in the future!

Wow amazing! Amazing communication and even came by for a meet and greet with such short notice. One of our pups had some tummy troubles and she kept us updated the entire time and even made a vet visit on our behalf. The whole process she made a breeze. We will for sure be using again. She loves dogs.. it radiates off her!! Our boys seemed so so happy and we felt comfortable having her stay in our home.

Karen was a fantastic sitter for our 2 cats. She is so friendly and kept us updated with pictures throughout her stay. She was always easy to reach, and seemed to really enjoy her time with our cats. Peace of mind is everything when leaving your pets with someone, and that’s exactly what we got with Karen. All around a great experience and will definitely book with Karen again in the future.

Zoe was amazing from the moment I messaged her. She was incredibly responsive and timely. She was thorough in asking questions about care needs and expectations. My pup needed some extra care with an ear infection and a severe fear of thunderstorms. Zoe was amazingly accommodating for every one of her needs going above and beyond. She communicated throughout our whole trip which made us feel more comfortable about leaving our pup. I would highly recommend Zoe, and plan to book her again in the future.
