“Excellent! Brittany and her family were great! I was really happy and comfortable leaving my pup in her care. Communication was easy and flexible. I loved receiving daily updates and photos. Would recommend and will book again. Thank you!”
“Taylor was absolutely amazing! She knows dogs well and is super friendly and compassionate. I trusted her completely with my 3 fur babies while I flew home for the holidays. She even gave them all stockings with a toy, treat and blanket in them😊 So sweet! She kept me updated always with texts and pictures and I never was worried my whole trip. Her children are so sweet and loved on my fur kids and I was so glad everyone became good friends. I 100% recommend booking with Taylor if you are in need of fantastic sitter in Port Charlotte!”
“Monica has watched Lucy a few times and she is great about sending updates and pictures. This last stay she contacted me my Freshpet food was moldy. She went to 3,stores to find food for Lucy. In the middle of this I told her to just feed her some chicken. Monica insisted on finding the right food for Lucy. She was truly concerned about our dogs well being. I so appreciate her! ❤️”
“I don’t know where to begin with my review so, I’ll just start. From the moment we went to our “Meet and greet”, to the moment we returned from vacations Floyd and wife were wonderful. They sent us photos of Jax every day. It was reassuring seeing him playing and going on walks. It left my heart and mind at ease, so I could enjoy our family vacation. I HIGHLY recommend Floyd as a sitter. I’ll definitely use them again. Thanks So Much Floyd ??”
“Jennifer did a wonderful job of caring for Buddy she is very loving and caring. I give her the highest review. You can confidently leave your pets with Jennifer and know that they are safe and well loved!”
“My fur baby is a diabetic and her sugar drop very low in the middle of the night and she heard her thrashing around and saved her by giving her honey and bringing her sugar back up. Took awhile for her to get back to normal, but she stayed by her side and then put her in her room for the rest of the stay. Thank you so much for taking such good care of my baby!❤️”
“Dana accepted our request within a week of the stay, so we were so thankful she could fit us in last minute. Our cat is very nervous around new people and hides the first couple days but Dana let us know that she came out to eat and sit near her which doesn’t happen everytime. We felt a good energy the moment we met Dana and felt comfortable leaving our baby there with her. She sent us photos and words each day of the stay, I wouldn’t hesitate to reach out again if needed. Thank you so much Dana!!!!”
“This was our second time trusting Marcela to watch all 3 of our big dogs! (Shes the only person thats ever watched our dogs..ever!) And we are SO happy with her♥️ She sent multiple videos every day, wrote silly things that happened and took super good care of them! They ran and played, met other dogs and she kept them on their regular schedule. We love her!!!!”
“Angela took care of Lucky on very short notice and I’m so grateful she was able to help. She sent pictures and updates, made sure he was fed, and got him out for walks. Communication was easy and reassuring, and it was clear Lucky was in good hands. I’d absolutely book with Angela again!”
“Jennifer took care of Coco for three days and was excellent. Very attentive, loving, and responsible. It gave me great peace of mind knowing my dog was in good hands. Highly recommended!”
“Bryanna was absolutely wonderful. She kept in touch with us all weekend and let us know how Clyde was doing and sent pictures etc. Her house was perfectly equipped for animals to enjoy themselves and have all the comforts of home. This was our first time leaving Clyde and I feel we picked the perfect person. I can’t say enough about Bryanna. I highly recommend her and we will definitely be leaving Clyde with her anytime we travel if she’s available.”
“Kimber was fabulous with our part human! Ramsey Has only been with us since Covid so it was an adjustment for him. Kimber was great keep us updated on how he was doing on a daily basis. We still appreciate the care in love that she gave to him! Highly recommend Kimber for your dog care needs.”
“Robin P was the best person I could’ve chosen to watch my dog Spencer. Spencer loved being with her and she sent me videos and text daily to let me know how Spencer was doing! She treated Spencer like it was her own dog, I couldn’t have asked for a better person to watch Spencer for us while we were out of town! We have actually booked her again for the beginning of the year when we go on a cruise! Thank you Robin for doing such a great job with our fur baby!!”
“Stephanie was a great sitter for us while we took an extended vacation without the pup. She was amazingly flexible with taking care of our dog an extra couple days when our schedule changed. We were happy with the updates and communication, it looked like our little guy had a great time.”
“After reading the reviews, I booked Jessica. Brought my girl for one week. She ran right to them. I could tell she was going to be happy there. I met her family which were kind and caring. I know my pup was happy. She was in great hands. I will definitely bring her back. Thanks Jessica!”
“Couldn't have gone better. Ana was kind, caring, responsible and so considerate of my dog and myself. He had such a good time. Ana sent me pictures every day and let me know how he was doing. He really had his own fun vacation. She even sewed up his favorite toy that I'd left for him all coming apart. I'm so happy and will definitely take my dog to Ana again in the future. I think this is her calling.”
“Aliyana was absolutely amazing with my boy Kenai super attentive towards him and he had friends there too with her animals. She also sends pictures and videos throughout the day so your always in the loop of things. She took him out to play and on multiple walks and treats. I know this says five stars but she deserves more 100/100 Ladies and Gentlemen your pets deserve someone amazing and she is all that and some. Thank you for taking such great care of my boy. This is now our go to pet sitter”

About: I love spoiling dogs and making them feel loved. As a person who had a life long companion I feel like i know how to treat a dog the way they should be treated (which is with lost of treats and belly rubs). I would say that i am a really sweet and nice girl as well as pretty active too. I've worked with dogs as well at a groomers, which i think gives me advantage on understanding if there is something wrong or if the dog needs something. I will always work harder then what is conceded normal as well as super patient. Weather your dog is big or small i know i can be a great person of use when it comes to dog. Hope to see you and your big/small guy/girl! :)

“Awesome stay for my Loki. Made new friends! And Ava was so awesome to take him with literally no notice on Christmas Eve. We will be seeing her again right Loki? He says rrrwa which means, actually i dont know what that means but hes smiling.”
About: I’ve been handling and caring for pets, since I was 9 years old. I can’t imagine my life without a pet. I love to interact and teach animals new things. Animals are amazing. I have four children, all whom will be in the home, so your pet must like children and lots of love. I also have two small dogs, mya and khloe who love to play and meet new friends! I have a fenced in back yard, lots of room to run and play. No dog will be left out unattended. I’m available full time. I am currently a stay at home mom. I work from home and run a small business. Your pet will never be alone. I have a fenced in backyard. Plenty of room to run, play and potty. I have extra crates for night time if preferred. I only crate dogs if I need to leave the house, just for safety and security while I’m gone or at feeding times, if I’m housing multiple dogs.
“We are so grateful to have found Taylor to take care of our fur baby Bowser. He has really bad separation anxiety so he can’t be left alone. Taylor made sure he received lots of play, attention, and love. He seemed very happy when we picked him up. She sent lots of photos and was very communicative. We will be calling her again next time we need a sitter 🫶”
“Jennifer was great. Very sweet and gentle girl. First time for our 15 year old dog with a sitter. She kept the pictures and videos coming all day, putting our minds at ease. The location was nice and her home is immaculately clean. We were able to spend a very enjoyable whole day away from our rental.”
“Ana was amazing! We met her a couple days before and she and her dog Lex immediately connected with our pup, and then this morning when we went to drop our pup off, she happily trotted in the house to meet Lex instead of freaking out like she normally does when we leave her! She had a great day, we got a bunch of pictures, and she was clearly very happy when we picked her up. Very glad to have found Ana!”
“Nala seemed very at ease with Floyd and his wife. She is a very timid dog so I was happy to see her just walk off with them. They send pictures of her settling right into their home. I don’t just trust anyone with my baby, but I get good vibes from them.”
“Bryanna took wonderful care of Gilda, my 10 month old English Cocker Spaniel, for two days this week. Bryanna communicated extremely well. She provides secure indoor and outdoor space, and lots of play activities. After the first day, Gilda was extremely eager to return to Bryanna’s care for the second day. And, after the second day, Gilda was exhausted from 2 straight days of play and activities. I will book again with Bryanna, and recommend that you book with her too. Have fun in Punta Gorda, while knowing your precious fur baby is being well cared for by Bryanna.”
About: I’ve been caring for animals my whole life—pets have always been part of my family, not just something I “look after.” Caring for them comes naturally to me, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. I have hands-on experience with pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I was trained in dog handling and basic training (including puppies), and while I’m not formally certified in the U.S., my experience comes from years of real, everyday care. I’m especially patient and calm with nervous, senior, or special-needs pets. I’m very comfortable caring for senior dogs, including giving medications and following special routines. I pay close attention to details because I know how important comfort, safety, and consistency are for pets. Over the years, I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and breeds, cats, hamsters, reptiles, fish, and more. One of my most meaningful experiences was nursing my Russian hamster, Tim, back to health after pneumonia—an experience that truly reflects how committed I am when an animal depends on me. My heart dog, Axl, was with me for 14 years and passed in Thanksgiving week of 2025. He taught me how deeply pets are part of our families, and how hard it can be to trust someone else with their care. That’s why my goal is to give pet parents peace of mind, knowing their pet is safe, respected, and genuinely loved. I communicate clearly, follow instructions carefully, and always focus on making pets feel calm, secure, and at home. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine. I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give pets the attention, playtime, and companionship they need throughout the day. Since I don’t work outside the home, I’m able to be present, follow routines closely, and adjust to each pet’s needs. I’m available for boarding any day of the week and can provide consistent care, supervision, and lots of one-on-one time. In my home, pets are cared for in a safe, calm, and loving environment. I have a fully fenced yard and a screened lanai for fresh air and supervised outdoor time. Since my dog Axl passed last November, I don’t have any other pets at home, which allows me to give my full attention to your pet. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, medications, playtime, and rest. I also have two kids who enjoy helping with gentle playtime (always supervised), which many pets love. I make sure pets feel comfortable, secure, and treated like part of the family. I provide consistent care, updates, and lots of affection—so your pet feels relaxed and at ease while you’re away.
About: 1 client at a time. About me: I am neurodivergent. I'm the type of person that tries to keep in touch with their inner child. I may or may not be a yoga space-case but I am home practically 24/7, at the moment, and have 24+ years of experience raising animal companions (and loved it). Please feel free to ask any questions. I have flexible availability and can spend genuine time with your pet. I pay close attention to the little things that make a big difference in a pets well-being and happiness. As a devoted pet sitter, I go beyond the basics. It's not a kennel here, your little being will have it's own little bedroom and it will have all the freedom and love it can take.

In addition to dogs and cats, I’ve provided drop-in care for birds, goats, and chickens, so I’m comfortable with a variety of animals.

I do have a small farm to tend to, but am flexible and able to easily fit it around pet sitting. I can care for your pets daily, but holidays are very busy.

I offer dog walking in 30 minute increments, drop in visits to check on, feed, dispense meds, tend to cats.
About: Animals aren’t just pets to me. They are individuals with emotions, personalities, and needs that deserve to be understood and respected. You can feel completely at ease knowing their happiness, comfort, and safety are always my top priority. As an animal rights advocate, I approach every animal with genuine compassion and awareness, tailoring my care to who they are, not just what they need on paper. Whether they are energetic, shy, playful, or sensitive, I meet them where they are and give them the attention and love that helps them feel truly safe and seen. You can trust that I will show up consistently, follow routines closely, and create a calm, caring environment while you are away. I do not just watch animals. I connect with them, care for them, and treat them like they matter, because they do. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I structure my schedule to allow consistent time for walks, feeding, check-ins, and companionship. I generally maintain a flexible routine, which allows me to adjust based on each pet’s needs and the specific care plan we agree on. I’m intentional about not overbooking so I can stay attentive and responsive while pets are in my care. My availability can vary slightly week to week, but I prioritize clear communication and planning in advance to ensure expectations are aligned and your pet’s routine is supported as closely as possible. I aim to create a calm, safe, and comfortable environment based on each pet’s routine and personality. Whether I’m in your home or mine, I follow your instructions closely while staying attentive to how your pet is feeling. In your home, I keep things consistent with their normal schedule so they feel secure. In my home, I maintain a clean, low-stress space with close supervision and attention to safety and care. I stay mindful during walks and interactions and avoid anything that could feel overwhelming or risky. I also provide regular updates with photos and check in if anything seems off so we can decide what’s best together. I do not have pets of my own, but there are pets in the home belonging to my roommates. They are well-managed, and I take care to ensure safe, controlled interactions. I can also keep pets fully separated at all times if preferred
About: Hello animal enthusiasts! My name is Katie and I have worked with animals in a multitude of settings. Jane Goodall (Primatologist) was always an idol of mine. As I grew up in a household loving my dogs, cats, and birds I envisioned working in Africa with chimpanzees. While my vision didn't manifest exactly the way I had fathomed, I still ended up working with baboons in Africa (2017). Along the way, I was an outdoor educator for several years working with all sorts of reptiles, amphibians, birds, mammals, and invertebrates. I have been attracted to all types of animals since the day I was born. As a science teacher (8 years), I kept corals and saved many animals in the outdoor environment near our school (from squirrels to birds and much more). My husband and I have just moved from Chicago, IL to Florida. We have a love for adventure and curiosity for the great outdoors. We are happily married with our Cockatiel (Sunny) and Umbrella Cockatoo (Jack). I can't wait to meet you and love your pets for eternity! Along with my elementary education degree, I studied zoology. So, with that being stated, I'm here in Florida ready to meet new people, love your pets, teach, adventure, and learn all about Florida ecology! Let's connect! I'm currently reinventing my life/schedule after just recently moving from Chicago, IL this year and leaving my middle school science teaching position. I plan on working for a nature center and substitute teaching while I continue improving my writing career. As of right now, I have an open schedule until the end of August. I will be changing my availability in September. Currently, we do not have a fenced in yard for your pet but I can surely take him/her out with their leash in our vast open space! If your dog loves the hose, we have access to this as well. Who doesn't love a nice spray during the hot summer? Your pet will have 24 hour access to this yard, cozy home, and the couch or bed! We live about 5 minutes from the Audubon Pennington Park where we love to take nature walks. I'm sure your dog wouldn't mind a nature walk too! We truly do enjoy hosting neighborhood pets as one of our very own family members. Your pet will receive unconditional love, constant cuddles, outdoor time, and food/water the way you prefer it! At night time, they can choose from our warm bed or their very own cozy dog bed. Your pet is top priority and we want to provide the best experience for them so that they are happy to come back and play! With that being said, I would love to work with you to provide whatever it is you and your pet need. Thanks and can't wait to touch base!
About: What sets me apart is the deep-rooted experience and love I have for animals. I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 9 years old, from walking neighborhood pups to helping with family pets. I’ve also fostered dogs, which taught me how to care for animals with a wide range of personalities and needs—from playful puppies to more reserved or nervous dogs. Whether your pet needs high-energy playtime or extra patience and comfort, I provide care that’s attentive, loving, and tailored to them. You can count on me to treat your pet like family and keep you updated every step of the way. I'm currently working a full time internship, 9-5 pm during the weekdays. I'm available after 5pm for evening care/walks, and have more availability on the weekends! In my home or yours, I focus on creating a calm, safe, and fun environment where pets feel comfortable and loved. I stick closely to their normal routines—mealtimes, walk schedules, playtime, and any special care instructions—so they feel secure even when their humans are away. Whether it's keeping things tidy, giving lots of affection, or making sure they get plenty of exercise, I’m all about giving personalized care that matches each pet’s needs. Communication is important to me too, so I always keep owners updated with messages and photos!

I love animals and am so excited to get to know your pets! I work part time at a dog boarding facility so I’m available most weekends and most weekdays to walk dogs and do drop ins! I have experience walking dogs of all shapes and sizes! I love all breeds as well as all cats! Pets are my passion and I’d love to meet your pets!
About: I've taken care and owned multiple types of dogs and cats. I have watched pets during the day and over night. I love meeting new dogs and cats. I work part time so that means I am available during different parts of the day and night. I am willing to do over nights. When I am watching pets in different clients home, I will make sure nothing in the house is damaged. I will not touch anything I don't have to. I will walk or let out pets. I will feed and water them. I will also take care of any extra needs that the pets have.
“Haley was absolutely wonderful! She was punctual, friendly, trustworthy, and kind to my dog. She always took him for the full amount of walk time and was great about letting me know if he went to the bathroom. I would highly recommend her!”
About: Hi! We’re a sibling team who loves caring for pets and treating them like family. This account is now shared between us, but my sister Kathy will be the primary caregiver and will be handling most of the communication, bookings, and day-to-day services. We both have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. From long walks and playtime to feeding routines and giving lots of attention, we understand that every pet has their own personality and needs. We’re comfortable following specific instructions to make sure your pet stays happy, safe, and on their normal routine while you’re away. My sister, who you’ll be mainly interacting with, is reliable, patient, and genuinely loves animals. She has hands-on experience with pet sitting, walking, and making sure pets feel comfortable in new situations. Whether your pet needs extra playtime, calm companionship, or just someone to stick to their routine, she’s got it covered. We know how important trust is when it comes to your pets, so we’re committed to clear communication, updates, and giving you peace of mind. I am a full time nursing student at the moment. I have quite a busy schedule but I am always free to give my time for dogs and cats because they bring me so much joy. I am mostly free on weekends but I do offer a full Thursday as well. For Monday’s, I have Zoom meetings every week from 4:30pm-6:45pm so if that’s something I can work on while being with your pets, it works out! I can offer to take your pets for walks, or simply play with them in the yard, or just lay around and cuddle with them if they are the more relaxed kinds. I am not offering boarding at the moment, so any services I am offering, it will be held at your place set by your rules!

You’ll become wiser because of your experiences. Im currently working part time so I am very flexible and would love to pet sit or any of the above.

“Monica has watched Lucy a few times and she is great about sending updates and pictures. This last stay she contacted me my Freshpet food was moldy. She went to 3,stores to find food for Lucy. In the middle of this I told her to just feed her some chicken. Monica insisted on finding the right food for Lucy. She was truly concerned about our dogs well being. I so appreciate her! ❤️”

“Dana accepted our request within a week of the stay, so we were so thankful she could fit us in last minute. Our cat is very nervous around new people and hides the first couple days but Dana let us know that she came out to eat and sit near her which doesn’t happen everytime. We felt a good energy the moment we met Dana and felt comfortable leaving our baby there with her. She sent us photos and words each day of the stay, I wouldn’t hesitate to reach out again if needed. Thank you so much Dana!!!!”

About: I've taken care of bunnies, parrots, chickens, dogs, cats, and turtles. I will always make sure that your pet is well cared for and loved. I’m currently not working so I’ll have plenty of free time to watch your pets, play with them, walk them, and feed them. They will be well cared for. I have a small part of my yard fenced but there’s plenty of space for your pets to run around. I have a 4 chickens that roam around but I will lock them up if needed and I have a small senior dog.
“If we could go higher than 5 stars, we would. Morgan willingly accepted caring for our anxious Aussie after our vet recommended that we find one-on-one care for him, rather than boarding him in a "commercial" facility. Morgan daily sent notes and photos of him at play with other dogs in her care and made sure that he got plenty of exercise as well as a lot of personal attention, petting and loving. Morgan even allowed him to sleep with her, thus continuing to provide the human contact his highly anxious personality craves. He never once needed any of his prescribed anxiety medication! Instead of being super-stressed out when we picked him up, he was happy and calm. Morgan's calmness, care and nurturing is exactly what he needed. We cannot thank her enough for giving us peace of mind during our time spent with family over the holidays.”
“Our German Shepherd loved his 10-day stay-- he was entertained by watching the neighboring farm animals and playing with their dog Moose. Kelsey took special care during a big thunderstorm, knowing he was particularly anxious. Very accommodating and flexible!”
“I had a lot of anxiety about leaving my naughty and anxious Malinois but Svetlana was exceptional. She kept him safe and calm. We would use her again without hesitation.”
