Haley was amazing! She was so understanding and accommodating with our very very shy puppy. She was wonderful with making him feel comfortable even when he was trying to hide. She also kept us updated throughout the day with pictures which we loved! She was the first Dogsitter we’ve had since our pup is terrified of everyone and everything but she made us feel so comfortable and relaxed about everything!

Cece is wonderful! She cared for my puppy while I was at work and went above and beyond to make her feel comfortable and cared for. Cece is kind, inviting, and very thorough in everything she does. Her home is warm and welcoming, and her own dogs are incredibly sweet and well-behaved — the perfect playmates for my puppy. I felt at ease knowing my girl was in such good hands. Highly recommend Cece for anyone seeking a responsible and compassionate pet sitter.

Iyorima was amazing! Jin loved her and got used to her fairly quickly. I get paranoid pretty easily and she understood and sent me photos and text messages about Jin to calm me down. Jin was a happy boy when he was there and that’s all I care about.

Trevor is great! And my dog loves going to his house. She always gets tons of exercise there and I don’t feel guilty leaving her because she has a blast! Will use Trevor again.

About: Hello, my name is Ashlee. I am a native to the Tampa Bay area. I love all animals, big and small. My whole life I was surrounded by dogs, cats, birds, mice, rabbits, and even a raccoon. I currently have a dog and a leopard gecko. They are part of my family in every way. I would love to care for your pet as if they were my own. My schedule is very flexible, so I am available short notice. I work from home, so your baby would never be left alone. I look forward to meeting you and your furry friend. I have a flexible schedule and will be home with your pet for the majority of the time, so they will always have company. I am available for boarding on weekdays, weekends, and most holidays. I also only accept one client at a time, ensuring your pet will have my undivided attention. I care for pets in my own home as well as yours. I am clean, organized, and always respectful of your space—you might even find it tidier than when you left! Your pet will get plenty of walks, playtime, cuddles, and attention while you're away. I treat every home and animal as if they were my own, ensuring your pet feels loved, safe, and stress-free.

About: I’ve been caring for animals for as long as I can remember, from childhood adventures bringing home stray dogs to years of raising and training my own. Over time, I’ve learned how to meet pets where they are; whether that means patient guidance for a curious puppy or gentle support for a senior dog who moves a little slower but still loves to be loved. I’m especially experienced in senior care after spending nearly 9 wonderful years with our 14 year old boy, Zeke. Supporting him through his golden years taught me the importance of attentiveness, comfort, and encouragement — every tail wag was worth the extra care. When it comes to training, I’m the designated puppy whisperer in our home. I’ve always taken the lead on obedience work and new-dog transitions, with a calm, consistent approach that builds trust and good habits. Above all, I believe pets thrive with love, patience, and positive energy — and that’s exactly what every animal in my care will receive. I work from home full-time so daily walks, playtime, and cuddles are already part of our routine. Caring for pets feels second nature. Our late pup, Zeke, taught us how much consistency and love matter, so every pet in our care gets that same steady, gentle attention. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priority. We have a fenced backyard for safe play, and I’m attentive and present throughout the day. A crate is available if needed, and our playful Frenchie, Fig, loves keeping other dogs entertained. Every pet is treated with care, patience, and love.

Virginia provided daycare for our young puppy for 5 days and it was a great experience! Lots of other dogs to play with and wonderful videos, pictures and check-ins from Virginia. She was very communicative and flexible with drop off and pick up times, and I'd recommend her to any pet parent out there. Virginia showed our pup lots of love and was always there to supervise playtime and activities with other dogs. Will def

Such a great experience leaving my pup with Hillary! She greeted us at the door with a big smile and hello and was so communicative throughout the night! She was sending updates and videos, without me having to ask. One of the best experiences I’ve had with a sitter. Thanks, Hillary, Loki can’t wait for his next day with you!!

About: I have been taking care of various types of dogs for 10 years. I have a love for animals and always treat them with the utmost care and respect. I am currently a college student, and I have a lot of flexibility in my schedule to provide great care for pets. I live an active lifestyle, so I will be able to take dogs on lengthy walks if desired. I always treat pets with care and respect. I am very attentive to the needs of pets throughout the day. I have had bad experiences with dog sitting services previously, so I always aim to provide good services for owners and animals. My living space is always tidy and is a great environment for pets.

Annabel was amazing! She was able to take my dog at the very last minute and went above and beyond to be flexible, accommodating, and understanding. This was my very first time leaving my dog with someone, and I truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She made me feel completely at ease and took such great care of my dog. I’m so grateful for all of her help—thank you again, Annabel!
