About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and genuinely just love being around them. I’m very active, love going on walks, and your dog will definitely get plenty of attention and exercise with me! I’ll treat your pup like my own and make sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and loved while you’re away. I am currently a graduate student at USF with a consistent schedule. I love to exercise and go for walks, so your dog will get plenty of exercise with me if they like it! I do a lot of work from home, so will be home with your dog too! When I do have clinic or class, it’s only 2-4 hours at a time I will be gone. I make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and part of the family while they’re in my home. I love spending time with dogs, so they’ll get lots of attention, walks, playtime, and cuddles throughout the day. I also try to stick to their normal routine as much as possible so they feel relaxed and at home.

Amazing peace of mind having Annaliese check in on my two dogs. I have shibas and they can be a little cautious with new people, but they warmed right up to her! She was helpful with a last minute booking I needed and was on time! Great sitter, i’d work with her again and recommend her to my pet parent friends!

About: I’ve had dogs since I was a little girl, and we got our first cat just a few years ago but they’ve seem to have fallen in love with me lol. My main concern is making sure your pet is happy and comfortable, doesn’t matter the situation. I’m very gentle with them and I always make sure to communicate or ask when necessary, I don’t want to assume and be wrong or not inform you if something happens. I am in college, I have classes 3 days a week, so I’m home quite a bit. I do not currently work so I’m typically free the remaining days. I volunteer/workout in my free time so I can be flexible! Just ask if a day/time works, I’ll do my best to accommodate! I’m in an apartment so I don’t have a lot of space inside. The complex does have a little fenced in dog area, and there are some dog parks in the area that I would be willing to go to if you have a more active pet. I don’t have anything toxic in the apartment, or in a place they could reach at least (medicines/rubbing alcohol, that sort of stuff). I also like going on longer walks, 20-30 min if the weather is nice.

About: I got my first cat at 10 years old and have had pets in the house ever since. I have two cats and a dog at home now. I am proficient in caring for other people's pets and routinely board and walk the dogs and cats of friends. Comfortable with all sizes of dogs for walking and playing. I can make any day work from 9am-7pm with some advanced notice. I am currently working part time and looking to add in some dog walks and check-ins. I will follow any rules or guideline you require when checking in on your pet. I am incredibly flexible when it comes to how you would like me to go about being in your home and working with your pet.

AJ has been walking both of our cane corsos for a few months - they are large and one of them takes a while to warm up to people. Through the whole process he has been patient, kind, and respectful and has gained the full trust and friendship of my big pups. He goes out of his way to make them comfortable and they just LOVE his walks, visits, and belly rubs. I couldn’t recommend AJ more.

About: Dogs have been a huge part of my life since I was a baby. I've raised and cared for four family dogs over the years: Nala (Black Lab), Holly (Golden Retriever), and my current dogs, Lucy (Golden Retriever) and Millie (Black Goldendoodle). Through caring for my own dogs, as well as dogs for friends and neighbors, I've gained hands-on experience with feeding, walking, bathing, playtime, overnight care, cleaning up accidents, administering oral medications, and keeping dogs on their regular routines. I've cared for dogs of all ages, from young puppies to senior dogs, and have experience with potty training, anxious or shy dogs, high-energy pups, and large breeds. I pride myself on being dependable, patient, active, and incredibly affectionate. I truly love spending time with dogs, and nothing makes me happier than seeing a happy, comfortable pup. My goal is to care for every dog as if they were my own while giving pet parents peace of mind through reliable care, regular updates, and lots of love. I currently have a part time job and am a student at the University of South Florida so I have a pretty open schedule, and plenty of time to play with your pups! I work Tuesdays and Thursday mornings as well as every other weekend right now :) During every drop-in visit, my goal is to make your pet feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away. I'll follow your pet's normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, walks if requested, playtime, and plenty of attention and affection. I'm happy to administer oral medications, follow special feeding instructions, and care for pets with different energy levels and personalities. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, so I'll treat them like they're my own. I'll also send regular photo and video updates so you can see how they're doing and have peace of mind while you're away. I want every visit to be a positive, stress-free experience for both you and your pet.

About: I have experience with all sorts of pets like cats, dogs, bunnies, birds, etc. I currently have three pets, ones a senior chiweenie (Chily), a cat (Oliver), and a senior Siberian Husky (Lobo). I make sure that my daily routine matches with your pets needs. I never try to overbook my schedule to make sure your pet gets the best care from me. If taking care of a pet at a clients home I always make sure to follow the clients rules and keep up with their routines such as feeding times and walk times. During pet care at my own home I make sure that all of the pets feel comfortable around each other by slowly introducing everyone.

About: I've been caring for animals my entire life and have experience with pets of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. Through pet sitting, rescuing, and fostering, I've learned that every animal has unique needs and deserves patient, compassionate care. Whether I'm caring for a playful puppy, an energetic dog, a shy cat, or a senior pet, I make sure their daily routine stays as consistent as possible. I provide fresh food and water, clean living spaces, exercise, play, enrichment, and plenty of affection while always paying close attention to their comfort and well being. My goal is to help your pets feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away, giving you peace of mind that they're in caring hands. I work part time with a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide pet care seven days a week. Whether you need daytime visits, overnight stays, or even late night check ins, I'm happy to work around your pet's routine to make sure they receive the care and companionship they need. Your pet's safety, comfort, and well being are always my top priorities. I understand how stressful it can be to leave a beloved pet, so I also make it a priority to earn and maintain your trust. I'll follow your pet's routine, respect your home, and provide the level of communication that makes you feel comfortable. Whether you prefer regular photo updates, detailed messages, or even video calls, I'm happy to keep you connected and give you peace of mind while you're away.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities since I was 16 years old. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to feed, walk, play with, and care for their pets while they’re away. I understand that every dog is different, so I take the time to learn their routine and make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether your pup enjoys long walks, playing fetch, or relaxing with cuddles, I’ll treat them like they’re part of my own family. I have a very flexible schedule and will always keep you updated with photos and messages, so you can enjoy your time away knowing your pet is in good hands. I’m currently working part-time, and taking online classes, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pet the attention they deserve. I’m available for drop-in visits, walks, and daycare throughout the week, with additional availability on evenings and weekends. I’ll make sure your pet gets lots of exercise, playtime, potty breaks, and, of course, plenty of love while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and happiness are always my top priorities. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I’ll care for them as if they were my own. I always follow your pet’s routine, feeding schedule, medication instructions, and any special needs. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or mine, you can count on regular updates, photos, and lots of love and attention so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.

About: Coming from a family that loves animals, I’ve always been around and taken care of pets. My experience has been walking/petsitting for family and friends, mostly dogs but occasionally cats. I have experience with dogs of all shapes and sizes, and I have a very flexible work schedule. I am currently a student in flight school, which only requires short daily in-person commitment, so I am very flexible with timing. Most of my studying is done online so I am able to care for your pet at any time it is convenient for you. I am unable to provide care in my own apartment due to its size, but I am very clean and respectful of clients homes when visiting for care. I am a great communicator and will respond quickly as well as follow any requests or instructions you make.

About: I’ve loved animals ever since I was little. I have a mischievous rescue chihuahua named Bolt and a sweet hearted chiweenie named Louie. They’ve been family members for over 7 years now. I have also volunteered at the SPCA taking care of their puppies and older dogs. I am currently working part time and am available to care for your animals most mornings and afternoons. I am usually available weekends as well! I live in a townhouse with plenty of room for animals with a park nearby. Most of the services I offer are drop ins, but I am very attentive to the details and instructions provided by my customers.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for over 2 years, but truly my love for animals started as a kid. Neighbors, friends, and family have always trusted me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets. I’m comfortable with puppies, senior pets, and even pets with special needs. My goal is always to make your furry family member feel safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. I’m available on weekends and weekdays. perfect for boarding, walks, or drop-in visits. I love making time every day to care for animals, so your pets will always get the attention they deserve. I provide a safe and loving environment with a fenced yard and my daughter loves pet. I’m happy to crate your pet if needed and always supervise outdoor playtime. Whether in my home or yours, I make sure every pet is treated like family, with lots of love, play, and cuddles.

About: I’m a dogs best friend, I like walking and being outside as much as they do! I grew up in a dog household and then began caring for dogs in clients homes for over 15 years now. I’ve taken care of 5 dogs, 5 cats and 15 rabbits at one time in one household before! I’ve never trained my own pets but I’ve assisted with training by enforcing the clients training commands and wishes. Im in good shape and can hike or go for extra long walks if you have an active animal. I’ll love and treat your dog as if it were my own. I think dogs are the best listeners and I love to mirror their unconditional love. I have several references to put you in contact with per request. I have a flexible schedule right now and would love to fill my open hours with pet visits and dog walking. I’m often available for last minute bookings. I have a fully fenced in backyard available for your dog to run. I do not have my own crates so a crate would need to be provided if necessary.

Joycemar goes above and beyond when she takes Heidi on her walks. She sends the cutest pictures and videos, and even has taken Heidi to the park. She makes sure Heidi gets her potty break and enough energy let out while she has her. She really does care about making your pet happy and I’m so glad I found her!

Alexa was very kind and compassionate, and she knew how to communicate with my dog on his level, which was super important for me when picking a dog walker. My dog is very picky with who he trusts, but he gravitated towards Alexa because she made him feel comfortable. Alexa is also very easy to work with, and she was always quick to reply. If you want a reliable dog walker with a big heart for animals, Alexa is the way to go!
