“Plain and simple - VASTI IS THE BEST! Amazing care of our precious little Morkie, who is not easy to care for, as that breed can be very possessive. She did a great job, sent constant updated pics and videos, showing her care and he really took to her attentiveness. We will definitely be asking for her services again in the future. Highly recommend her for your pet as well.”

“What a wonderful person to have my dog for a week! She send pics every day (which made me miss him more!) and was always answering anything right away. I never was nervous during my trip, and this is the first time I ever left him so long. Truly a wonderful person with an awesome dog Mac! Ocean will definitely see Alli again! :)”
“Wouldn’t trust my boy with anyone else! Jennifer is so good with my pup, always responsive and gives around the clock care. Never question whether or not my pup is in good care! Highly recommend.”
“I rate Jennifer 10's across the board... She definitely made Cali feel like she was the only dog in the world... Her house is very beautiful and doggy friendly... And Cali said that her 2 fur babies were very nice to her ;)....I would definitely book Ms. Jennifer AGAIN!!! She is a keeper”
“I took my dog for a meet and greet with Kevin before he stayed there and he loved it! Kevin's two dogs are fun to play with and the backyard is like their own dog park. Steve (dog) had the best sleep over and was very tired when I picked him up! Going back again in a couple of weeks!”
“Yana was amazing! I sent my husky pup for a weekend because of a wedding and due to unforeseen circumstances I had to send him in a little early and push the pickup date back a little and she was so accommodating”
“Stephen took special care of my mini poodle Cocoa. He sent me pictures throughout the day showing how comfortable Cocoa was . He watched him for 8 days and I had peace of mind that my baby was well cared for while I was away.”
“Emma was awesome and was totally flexible with scheduling. She shocked us by offering to pick up our Westie at the Clearwater Beach resort so that we could just enjoy a much needed mini vaca. Daisy took to her immediately and was tail wagging from the start! Very happy!!”
“I had a great experience booking with JD and Magdalena. I received great communications and pictures daily. Reggie returned home happy, exhausted and excited for her next sleepover.”
“I felt very comfortable leaving our dog with Noemi. Her home is immaculate and she gave our dog lots of opportunities for exercise at the dog park, walking and in her fenced area. Will definitely use her again.”
“Lee was great! He helped us out on short notice and was super flexible and accommodating. He took great care of our doggie while we were away! We recently moved to a new area and Lee is our new go-to dog sitter! Highly recommend”
About: 🐾 Wagging Tails, Happy Hearts, Peace of Mind While You're Apart 🐾 I have a genuine connection with animals and a love for them that is difficult to put into words. From as far back as I can remember, I've been drawn to nature and animals of all kinds—big and small. Caring for animals isn't just something I do; it's a lifelong passion that has always been a part of who I am. Throughout my life, I've rescued and cared for countless animals and have a natural ability to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I believe pet care goes beyond meeting basic physical needs. My goal is to provide companionship, enrichment, comfort, and an overall sense of well-being so your pets feel happy, secure, and cared for while you're away. Whether your furry family members are staying with me or I'm caring for them in the comfort of your home, they will be treated with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own pets. I understand how difficult it can be to trust someone else with your beloved companions. Every pet has their own unique personality, routines, quirks, and preferences, and I take the time to learn and respect those details. Maintaining their familiar routines helps keep them comfortable, stress-free, and happy while you're away, giving you peace of mind knowing they're in caring and capable hands. **Specialized Care & Experience** I have experience caring for pets with a wide variety of unique needs and personalities. Whether your pet is shy, reactive, unsocialized, elderly, very young, disabled, recovering from illness or injury, or simply has their own special routines and quirks, I provide patient, individualized care tailored to their comfort and well-being. My experience includes: • Senior (geriatric) pet care • Puppy and kitten (pediatric) care • Special-needs and disabled pets • Reactive, fearful, or unsocialized animals • Medication administration (oral, topical, and other routine medications) • Post-surgical and recovery support • Mobility assistance and accommodations • Maintaining specialized feeding, exercise, and behavioral routines I understand that every pet is unique. I take the time to learn their preferences, triggers, habits, and routines so they feel safe, secure, and understood while you're away. ❤️ Pet care is my primary focus this summer, giving me the flexibility to accommodate a wide range of schedules and care needs. I understand how important consistency and routine are, so I work to ensure their care fits seamlessly into their normal day. Whether your pet needs a quick check-in, multiple daily visits, medication, specialized attention, or full day/overnight sitting, I have the availability to provide dependable, personalized care and plenty of attention while you're away. I strive to provide a safe, comfortable, and low-stress environment that feels as close to your pet's normal routine as possible. In my home, pets have access to a securely fenced backyard with plenty of shade for supervised outdoor time. I share my home with one senior dog and three cats who are accustomed to other animals. Depending on your preferences and your pet's personality, they can socialize with my pets or be kept completely separate. I understand that not every animal enjoys company, and I'm happy to accommodate whatever makes them most comfortable. When caring for pets in your home, I treat your space with the same respect I would my own. I carefully follow feeding schedules, medication routines, exercise needs, and any special instructions to help maintain consistency and reduce stress while you're away. I also respect your home, belongings, privacy, and household routines, ensuring both you and your pets feel comfortable and secure. My goal is always to provide attentive, personalized care so your pets feel safe, happy, and loved whether they're staying with me or remaining in the comfort of their own home.
“We are so grateful for Bob and Marissa! They take amazing care of our dog, Lexi, and treat her like she’s truly part of their family. They walk her regularly, let her snuggle up and sleep in their bed, and shower her with the kind of love and attention she gets at home. We especially appreciate the photos and updates they send—it gives us such peace of mind knowing she’s happy and well cared for.”
“Norma was wonderful about sending me pictures and updates throughout the time my dog was with her and her family. I was a bit nervous since this was my first time of leaving my dog with a stranger. I don’t feel like she is a stranger anymore and I am happy I have someone I am comfortable leaving my dog with when needed.”

“Jennifer watched our cat Ozzy while we were out of town the week of Christmas and she was fantastic! Oz is very used to having us home all the time so leaving for 5 days was hard for us and him but Jennifer’s daily updates with pictures, to let us know his mood and that he was doing well was so reassuring. Would definitely recommend Jennifer as a sitter!”
“Kelli is an amazing sitter for our 3 cats! She follows all of our detailed instructions well, is very communicative and quick to let us know of any issues or concerns, very thoughtful if any problem solving is needed, and sends us great thorough updates and lots of pictures so we can see how our babies are doing while we are away! We will continue to work with Kelli as long as she will have us during any of our pet care needs! We would highly recommend Kelli to anyone, especially those looking for folks who are caring and considerate of cats needs, which can be quite different than those of other furry friends.”
“Jennah was amazing! I know who to call when I need pet sitting. She went above and beyond and was super understanding when an issue came up. I felt comfortable with her being in my home and she was communicative which is all you can ask. My kitties were given the best love and care🥰 she was especially understanding with my senior cat and that means so much! I’m always so anxious to leave her.”
“Jessica was amazing! She was available with very short notice, and I felt very comfortable leaving my cats in her care. Plus, my sometimes picky cats loved her :) I appreciated the updates and photos she sent with each visit. Thank you Jessica!!”
About: Like most people I grew up with both cats and dogs! Later in life I got my cat, Ellen, who I had for about 4 years before she passed away from cancer. Almost 1.5 years ago my boyfriend and I adopted Icarus, a 105lb mastiff-pitbull mix. Coming from the shelter, Icarus struggles with some reactivity and we've worked with professional trainers for the last year from whom I've learned a LOT. Throughout all of these experiences I've learned how to administer oral and otic medications, handle large dogs, and am comfortable using muzzles and pinch collars. I am always down to take your best friend out for a pup cup, to the dog park, or just for a walk! I'm a student so I have a schedule that allows me to hangout with your dog or cat while you're at work. I'll be sure to send photos and videos every outing! I'm a student but I have no classes on Fridays or weekends. Depending on my school schedule, I might be able to hangout with your furry friend during the week but it would be on a case-by-case basis. My dog is more of a human lover than dog lover so I don't take any dogs into my home for daycare or overnight visits.
“We had a great experience with Alexis! She took wonderful care of our cat and followed all of our instructions perfectly. We really appreciated the updates and photos, they gave us peace of mind while traveling. We would definitely book her again and highly recommend her to others!”

“Oreo really enjoyed spending the days with Kayla & Joseph. He was chill when I picked him up like ge could stay or go home. I would definitely use them again.”
“We are so so glad we found Alli! Our 1 year old Australian shepherd Harry has a lot of energy and can often be a handful. Alli is wonderful with him! She sends updates several times a day and is always keeping us in the loop. Her sweet dog Mack is the perfect playmate for Harry and insures that he comes home tired :) we know whenever Harry is with Alli he is in amazing hands.”

“Jennah and her family were absolutely wonderful to Benny. He got to play with other dogs, go in the pool and be a part of their family. He was a very happy pup. I was updated with his progress, photos and video. Communication was great and I felt like he was really taken care of and enjoyed his stay. The house is like a puppy paradise. I couldn’t have asked for better. I highly recommend.”

“We loved having Olga watch our puppy, Penelope. Penelope is highly energetic and Olga had no issue matching her energy. We had a last minute engagement and Olga was there for us at 9pm the night before. It was amazing.”
“Enzo had a great day with Jennifer today. We will definitely continue with daycare when we need it! Thanks for taking good care of our sweet boy.”
About: I've been caring for animals my entire life and have experience with both dogs and cats of different sizes, ages, and personalities. I've owned three dogs, two of these dogs I had throughout my childhood and one is the dog I own currently and currently own two rescue cats, and I've also cared for family members' and friends' pets while they were away. My experience includes caring for dogs ranging from 30-pound companions to large breeds such as Golden Retrievers and Dobermans. What sets me apart is my hands-on experience caring for pets with medical needs. When I adopted my rescue cats as kittens, both required medication and extra attention during their recovery. One had a respiratory infection, and the other was treated for a UTI. These experiences taught me patience, attention to detail, and the importance of closely monitoring an animal's health and behavior. Animals truly hold a special place in my heart. I understand that pets are family, and I treat every pet in my care with the same love, compassion, and respect that I give my own. Whether it's playtime, walks, cuddles, medication, or simply keeping them company, my goal is always to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. One of my lifelong dreams is to open a nonprofit animal sanctuary and continue helping animals in need. At the moment, I have a flexible and open schedule. This means I can fully dedicate my time, attention, and energy to caring for your pets and accommodating their needs. I will take the time to understand each pet’s individual routine and needs by asking pet parents how they typically care for their pet. I believe every pet is different, so I make sure to learn any specific instructions, preferences, or important details before providing care. I never assume I know what’s best for someone else’s pet and always follow the owner’s guidance closely. My goal is to provide consistent, personalized care so each pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while their family is away. In my own home I will still ensure I follow the owners guidance of their pet and ensure they are happy and comfortable in my home with my dog and cats!
“As someone knew to the city and state with a new puppy to boot along with another dog, I was nervous about last minute accommodations. I have found a second home for my Gertie! Coming from an apartment environment, she has a whole yard to run and play in and the hosts are exceptionally great and very reasonably priced. I highly recommend them to anyone. If there are more stars, I would give them to them. I am looking no more for anyone else. Trust me you will be happy and so will your babies.”
About: I’m a devoted pet lover with a special bond to my 3-year-old Bernedoodle, who inspires my passion for animal care.

I understand the unique needs of each dog and adapt my care to fit their personality and energy levels. I offer customized walks, engaging playtime, and lots of snuggles, ensuring your pup feels safe, loved, and active while you're away. Whether it’s teaching basic commands or providing gentle senior care, your dog will feel right at home with me and my Doodle! I am currently doing pet services full-time. My schedule revolves around your needs! Any day, time, potty breaks, personal preferences.. I am here to ensure that happens. When caring for pets in my home, I provide a comfortable and secure environment where they can feel relaxed and at ease. My Bernedoodle is friendly and sociable, making for a great companion during their stay. I offer plenty of playtime, cozy naps, and outdoor walks, all tailored to your pet’s needs. If I’m caring for your pet in their own home, I ensure they follow their usual routine to minimize stress. Whether it’s feeding, playing, or administering medications, I handle all tasks with attention to detail and love. I’m committed to keeping your pet happy, safe, and well-cared for while you’re away!

About: I have a genuine love for dogs and enjoy spending time caring for them. I am responsible, patient, and attentive to each dog's individual needs, whether that means going on walks, playing, sticking to feeding schedules, or simply providing companionship. I have experience caring for dogs of different sizes and personalities, and I understand the importance of keeping them safe, comfortable, and happy while their owners are away. One area I am not comfortable with is food aggression. I’d kindly have to decline if your pet struggles with this! Although I do not have a yard of my own, my property has a small dog park available to me! I am free throughout the whole week except Sunday's. If Sunday is needed, I will do my best to accommodate!! I’m also available all hours of the day. I care for pets by walking, feeding, playing, and loving on them the most! I am capable of sticking to a schedule if they have one.
“We've had a great experience with JD and Magda! They've treated Gus like he was their own and made him (and us) safe. They are quick to respond with any communication and try their best to be accommodating. Also their two dogs are super friendly and Gus loves having them to play with.”

“We contacted David to help with our dog, Bella Mae, for a couple days last week as I had minor surgery and could not walk her. David was nice enough to stop by prior to scheduled time and meet us and Bella. He is a fine young man who clearly loves animals and was great with Bella Mae.”
“Dependable, Punctual and Cares for my pups! That is all I need. Elaine helped me so much with a last minute booking and even made some last minute accommodations that weren't expected but very much appreciated!”
About: I've cared for multiple breeds, big or small. I am aware that each dog is different, and I ensure to make them feel safe first. I am able to pet sit during the day when needed. I am available during mornings starting at 8 and the afternoons until 5:00 p.m. I take my dog out 4-5 times a day, fed twice daily and go out on walks. Unless specifically told, your furry friends will receive the same.
About: I’ve loved and cared for dogs my entire life, over 50 years of walking, sitting, and spoiling pups of all shapes and sizes.

“Kelli has been an absolute Godsend to me and my pups life! Her communication is 10/10! As an owner of an older pup, my dog has been through some changes with her body. Kelli has been more than a helping hand when it comes to helping her stand up, making sure she goes potty safely, giving medication or cleaning a wound! She is extremely friendly, easy to reach out to and I know my pup absolutely loves spending time with her. I am so lucky to have found someone who truly cares about my pups wellbeing and is flexible!! Thank you for everything you have done for us, we appreciate you!”
About: I will treat dogs like part of the family, I am free at home and I have time to engage with the dogs not only watching them. I can take them for long walks and provide love and care. I am doing it for love and not only for money, I can’t have my own dog for now so I want to enjoy them in my life as much as I can without a commitment for now. Be sure that your dog will be in safe hands and will not feel left alone. I prefer small to medium dogs because my apartment is not so big but enough space for one small or medium dog. I would love to take care of your dog, waiting!
About: We've had a dog in our home for most of my life. And so has many of our family and friends. So holidays and get togethers are always fun with all the fur babies running around. I had a 100 pound German Shepard so big dogs are no problem. He's made us very familiar with the vet office. From regular allergy meds to cut open paw pads that need daily cleaning and treatment, he's given us years of pet experience. I've owned dogs who live for long walks and dogs who prefer playing fetch in the yard instead. The cuddly ones to the stand off ish ones. Senior dogs who need assistance walking and extra health care too. I love all dogs and will pet any one I see... with permission of course! Love me some cats too! Currently have 3 cats, so the litter box is a familiar place for me. I'm also a master at cat play time! I work from home full time so I'm always able to give my pet or yours the attention they need when they need it. I'm available for afternoon drop ins to full days of sitting. I understand the peace of mind knowing someone is taking good care of my pet when I can't be home for them. I want to offer as little disruption to your pets routine as possible. Whatever your guidelines are for your pets needs I will strive to meet and exceed them so your pet stays happy and healthy!
About: Not only do I have 20+ years of experience with cats and dogs of all sizes (and ages!) but I'm also very comfortable with all types of reptiles, fish, birds and horses! I've been lucky enough to have tons of animals in my personal and professional life and it seems like such a gift to be able to get paid to spend time with God's creatures. I'm currently working remotely and I have tons of free time. I'm available all day every day at the moment and I'd love to spend my time with your pets! I have a one bedroom apt with two cats which I know is not ideal for most animals but I'm confident that I would be able to make them very comfortable!
“Angelina was great with our two Aussies! Angelina arrived on time and the girls were very happy to see her. She took time with our girls, playing, brushing, walking and just giving extra loving while we were away. If your looking for someone who is structured and still very loving, you found her!!”
About: I grew up with all sorts of pets I took care of. My grandparents owned a vet clinic that I worked at as well as attending dog shows. Animals have been my life! I am a Full-Time student at SPC with all of my classes being asynchronous and online. This means I can drop by anytime you need to check in on your pets or take them for a walk! I work best on strong guidelines on your pet’s routine as I don’t like to change something they’re used to! A good “about me” for your pet is amazing too!!

About: I've cared for cats and dogs all my life, but became a sole caregiver 24 years ago. I specialize in caring for pets with complex needs including subQ fluids, diabetes management and insulin injections, asthma inhaler/nebulizer treatments, and oral/injectable meds. I have a passion for TNR and have successfully rehomed/rehabilitated hundreds of foster dogs and cats. Three dogs and six cats have owned me, two of which lived over 20 years. I'm currently working part-time from home so I have plenty of time to dedicate to your pups or cats. I have a flexible schedule and always put their needs ahead of mine. I currently have a large fenced yard and two indoor cats in Clearwater, FL. I prefer to care for pets in their home environments, but can be flexible. I do whatever I can to care for and make them feel at ease. To me, there's nothing better to earn than an animal's trust -- I understand each has its own traits and quirks.
About: I will always ask for a meet and great before committing to boarding or sitting. I want you to hear you concerns and needs and make sure we are a good fit. I will be attending NSU starting in May. My schedule allows early morning pet care and late afternoon pet care. My weekends through Monday are open. Your pet will get lots of cuddles, walks and playtime. If I am in your home I will follow the routine and rules you have in place for the well being of your pet. If I am onboarding your furry friend feeding/ potty and bed times will be adhered to.
About: As a child we had a house filled with animals in Pennsylvania. Cats, dogs, birds, fish, rabbits, hermit crabs and snakes. It was my job to take care of them and I loved it. They always brought me so much love and joy. I have always had a special place for animals in my heart. I am currently on Disability from my second battle with Cancer so my schedule is pretty much open. I wanted to get a part time job and this is perfect for me. I have a 4 year old Chihuahua mix named Buddie and he is my life. Buddie is a very well mannered pup. He's very sweet and knows his boundaries with other dogs. We go to the dog park here on the premise, long walks, and play everyday. We spend a lot of time outside down by the beach (here on the premise). He has his neighborhood Dog friends that play together daily as well. I don’t drink or smoke cigarettes. I always provide a safe and loving environment for the animals I care for. There is a Dog park here in my community that I use and if needed I can crate your dog too when boarding. First thing in the morning Buddie and I go for a 30 min walk. I always lock the door when I go for walks and pick up 💩 after him as well. After every walk I wipe off his paws from any dirt, pollen, or pesticides that he may have stepped in outside. Then I give him fresh water and food. In the afternoon we go on a long walk around the community to the dog park where we play which is roughly 2 hours or longer. After that Buddie is usually tired and takes a nap. Then I take him out again before dark for a 30 min walk and another walk before bed. My neighbors always say how lucky my dog is because we are always out walking together. Buddie gets his daily Greenies treat before bed and more food if he’s still hungry. I make sure everything is locked up before heading to bed.

About: 🐾 Wagging Tails, Happy Hearts, Peace of Mind While You're Apart 🐾 I have a genuine connection with animals and a love for them that is difficult to put into words. From as far back as I can remember, I've been drawn to nature and animals of all kinds—big and small. Caring for animals isn't just something I do; it's a lifelong passion that has always been a part of who I am. Throughout my life, I've rescued and cared for countless animals and have a natural ability to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I believe pet care goes beyond meeting basic physical needs. My goal is to provide companionship, enrichment, comfort, and an overall sense of well-being so your pets feel happy, secure, and cared for while you're away. Whether your furry family members are staying with me or I'm caring for them in the comfort of your home, they will be treated with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own pets. I understand how difficult it can be to trust someone else with your beloved companions. Every pet has their own unique personality, routines, quirks, and preferences, and I take the time to learn and respect those details. Maintaining their familiar routines helps keep them comfortable, stress-free, and happy while you're away, giving you peace of mind knowing they're in caring and capable hands. **Specialized Care & Experience** I have experience caring for pets with a wide variety of unique needs and personalities. Whether your pet is shy, reactive, unsocialized, elderly, very young, disabled, recovering from illness or injury, or simply has their own special routines and quirks, I provide patient, individualized care tailored to their comfort and well-being. My experience includes: • Senior (geriatric) pet care • Puppy and kitten (pediatric) care • Special-needs and disabled pets • Reactive, fearful, or unsocialized animals • Medication administration (oral, topical, and other routine medications) • Post-surgical and recovery support • Mobility assistance and accommodations • Maintaining specialized feeding, exercise, and behavioral routines I understand that every pet is unique. I take the time to learn their preferences, triggers, habits, and routines so they feel safe, secure, and understood while you're away. ❤️ Pet care is my primary focus this summer, giving me the flexibility to accommodate a wide range of schedules and care needs. I understand how important consistency and routine are, so I work to ensure their care fits seamlessly into their normal day. Whether your pet needs a quick check-in, multiple daily visits, medication, specialized attention, or full day/overnight sitting, I have the availability to provide dependable, personalized care and plenty of attention while you're away. I strive to provide a safe, comfortable, and low-stress environment that feels as close to your pet's normal routine as possible. In my home, pets have access to a securely fenced backyard with plenty of shade for supervised outdoor time. I share my home with one senior dog and three cats who are accustomed to other animals. Depending on your preferences and your pet's personality, they can socialize with my pets or be kept completely separate. I understand that not every animal enjoys company, and I'm happy to accommodate whatever makes them most comfortable. When caring for pets in your home, I treat your space with the same respect I would my own. I carefully follow feeding schedules, medication routines, exercise needs, and any special instructions to help maintain consistency and reduce stress while you're away. I also respect your home, belongings, privacy, and household routines, ensuring both you and your pets feel comfortable and secure. My goal is always to provide attentive, personalized care so your pets feel safe, happy, and loved whether they're staying with me or remaining in the comfort of their own home.
“I really appreciate Kristen being available during the holiday season. My pet fit right in with her family pets. Kristen is very friendly and her home is cozy. I hope she is available for my next booking!”
“This was our first time boarding our fur baby with anyone, and it went SO well! Yessica and Kevin are naturals with dogs and they really knew how to get our girl acclimated to her surroundings with a patient introduction to toys, to them as caregivers, and then to each of the other fur babies who were in their care. Our clingy girl did great and we felt relaxed in knowing that she was comfortable. She has never-ending energy and was able to play her heart out! I will say she slept hard when we brought her home and even enjoyed a lazy day the day after coming home, lol! Highly recommend!”
“J'Quan was an amazing boarder! He was communicative, accommodating of an emergency at pickup, and was great with my bulldog, Max. Max came home clean, happy, and healthy, and I'd definitely have J'Quan keep him again.”
“Elyse is amazing! She took great care of my Louis and was very accommodating when I needed her to keep him another night due to my flight delay. So grateful to her and her family!”
