Top rated Tavares dog sitters
“Marissa was amazing with our Tank! She won him over quickly and we felt like he was definitely in good hands while we were on vacation. She was always on time when dropping in on him. She wanted to make sure he was eating and drinking, whatever it took she would do it. He loved his long walks with her. We loved how she played with him and gave him rubs and cuddles. We even saw her do a little foot dance one day when she dropped in on him. She’s definitely a 10 out of 10 and if we available she will be our first choice for our Tank. Would highly recommend!”
“I can’t say enough good things about Mahaila. From our very first meet and greet, it was clear how much she genuinely loves animals—my girls warmed up to her right away, which never happens! She was attentive, patient, and incredibly thoughtful every step of the way. While I was away, she kept in consistent contact, sending updates and the cutest pictures—my dogs looked so happy and relaxed, which gave me such peace of mind. It’s hard to trust someone else with your pets, but Mahaila made it easy. I’ve never felt more confident leaving them in someone else’s care. She’s officially our go-to now, and I’m so grateful we found her!”
“I always love the updates and seeing her so happy! Thank you again for your help, will definitely continue booking in the future. It's such a relief knowing she is in good hands when I'm away.”
“Sara is AMAZING I had so much peace of mind knowing she was going to check on my cats. She gave me detailed reports and even brought in my amazing packages. She’s the best!!”
“Emily was really good! I had an issue with my previous sitter and needed someone else to come check on my pets while I was already on vacation and she picked it up last minute and I appreciate it so much!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for 20+ years, from playful puppies to sweet seniors, and cats with big personalities. I’m calm, patient, and great at reading each pet’s unique needs, whether that’s quiet time, play, or extra cuddles. I offer drop-in visits and dog walking on weekdays and weekends, with flexible scheduling to fit your routine. I treat pets like family and follow your instructions carefully so they feel safe, loved, and happy. Note: I focus on daytime care and don’t offer overnight stays as a standard service, but I’m happy to discuss special situations. Caring for pets is one of the best parts of my day. My flexible schedule means I can give them consistent attention and affection throughout the week, making sure they feel safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my first priority. I take time to understand their routine, follow your instructions closely, and treat your home with care and respect. With gentle attention and dependable care, you can trust they’ll feel secure, happy, and loved while you’re away.

About: I have been taking care of pets, of all sorts, for 30+ years. I am certified in First Aid and CPR for dogs and cats. I have an uncanny ability that allows me to communicate with animals. I work part time so I have mornings and late afternoons to walk or play with your best friends. I can also be available anytime, day or night, with appropriate warning. I do not have the tools needed to keep your pet at my house. I do have the ability to travel to your house and take your dog(s) to a dog park or just a friendly walk.
