“Heather and her family were so great with our little dog. She was super easy to get in touch with, sent updates on how the dog was doing, and made drop off and pick up a breeze.”
“"Rocco had a great stay! He was well taken care of and we could tell he was comfortable and happy. Communication was easy and everything went smoothly. Would book again. Thanks so much!"”
About: I care for dogs and cats of all ages, from energetic youngsters to sweet seniors who prefer the slower, cozier side of life. I’m patient, attentive, and adaptable. High energy? Let’s play. Nervous and shy? I’ll move at their pace. Senior pet who needs medication, extra mobility support, or a strict feeding schedule? I’ve got it handled calmly and carefully. I pay attention to the little details — changes in behavior, appetite, or mood — and I always keep you updated so you never have to wonder how things are going. Expect photos, check-ins, and probably at least one message about how adorable your pet is. Reliable, communicative, and fully committed to making your pet feel safe, loved, and slightly spoiled, that’s what I bring to the table (treats included, if approved by management). As a retiree, pet care fits very naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to the pets in my care, which means they’re never squeezed in between meetings or long work hours. My days are calm, structured, and centered around home life; perfect for maintaining a pet’s normal routine. Whether it’s regular potty breaks, play sessions, medication schedules, or just quiet time together, I’m able to give pets consistent attention throughout the day. I’m home often, so pets who prefer company (or need a little extra supervision) are well cared for. Pet sitting fits my lifestyle because I truly enjoy the companionship and purpose it brings to my week. It keeps me active, engaged, and doing something I genuinely love; caring for animals and giving their owners peace of mind. When pets stay in my home, my goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and part of the family. I provide a calm, structured environment where they receive plenty of attention, supervision, and affection throughout the day. I stick closely to each pet’s normal routine — including feeding schedules, walk times, potty breaks, playtime, and any special care instructions. If medication is needed, I administer it carefully and on schedule. I also pay close attention to their behavior, appetite, and energy levels to make sure they’re adjusting well and feeling their best. Because I’m retired and home often, pets aren’t left alone for long periods. They get consistent companionship, gentle engagement, and a cozy place to relax. Whether they’re active and playful or prefer quiet cuddle time, I adapt to their personality and comfort level. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident and connected while they’re away. My goal is for pets to feel loved, secure, and right at home until their family returns.
“Jennifer does amazing with our baby Luna as usual! Absolutely phenomenal care, Luna had fun spending the weekend. I highly recommend Jennifer to care for our four-legged babies!”
“I am always apprehensive about leaving my pup with anyone, especially overnight. He is a momma's boy and doesn't enjoy being alone. I saw Jodi had great reviews and a perfect situation working from home, so we arranged a three night sleepover. My pup fell in love with Jodi and her family. She sent lots of pictures and kept me very informed. I felt very secure the entire time, and am looking forward to the next one! Thank you, Jodi!!!”
“We used Betsy over the weekend and had a great experience! She was constantly updating me and sending photos! Drop off and pick up was very smooth! We are going to use her again for another upcoming trip!”
“Amazing they cared for my pitty as if i she were theirs. Very great communication the whole time. Definitely recommend and Definitely using her an her family.”
“Since we moved to Florida, we had a hard time finding a good, reliable dog sitter. Nothing really worked out. Then I found Lisa and decided to try her. From the first time I talked with her, I felt she would be the right person. My dog is stubborn and not easy to handle, but she did an amazing job and cared for him very well. She also sent regular updates. This was my first trip where I could relax with a peaceful mind because I knew my dog was in good hands. I am really happy I met her, and she will definitely be my go-to dog sitter from now on.”
“This is our first time using a dog sitter for Snickers and it did not disappoint. Marisa and Robert are fantastic, they send updates often and our beloved puppy had the utmost care. We feel comfortable leaving him in their care so that we have the flexibility to travel. We have booked TWO more dates with them. Thank you so much for loving our Snickers the way he deserves.”
“RICCHI & ATHENA are awesome dog sitters!! It is clear that they love dogs and have made that their life’s work!! Their home is set up to keep animals safe and set up to provide all they need. Mollie had a delightful time with them and their dogs and dog guests!! They all enjoyed running around and playing on their yard. They send pictures daily to see how the dogs are playing together. We will definitely leave Mollie there for our next trip!! Thank you so much RICCHI & ATHENA!! 🥰😁”
“Jean was a wonderful host for our pup! She was great at providing updates and pics and we could tell our pup was having a great time with her and Bernie! We will definitely use them again! Thank you!”
“I am so grateful for Stephen! For opening up his home & taking such good care of Kovu while I was away. It was my first time leaving my fur baby, I was nervous but Stephen made this process so smooth! Kovu was sooo happy being there, I don’t think he had time to even miss me. I received multiples photos throughout the day which made me smile each time. I will without a doubt be booking with Stephen again!”
“Norma took excellent care of my pug and golden doodle. She is an obvious dog lover. My dogs took to her immediately. She was very loving with them. She sent me several photos a day of them playing in her backyard. She kept me informed of their eating habits and she went above and beyond with administering meds to my special doodle. I have found my dog sitter!”
“Marissa was the best! She is communicative, kind, and very sweet. This was my first time ever boarding my dog and it was such a great experience. She sent many photos throughout the day along with updates on my dog. When I picked him up, she even sent him home with a report card and cute Polaroid of him. What a thoughtful gesture. I know Patch had a great time with her and was well cared for. Will definitely rebook and recommend her to friends and family if they are looking for a pet sitter. 🥰 Thank you Marissa!”
“We felt very comfortable leaving Bella and Monty with Jessica and Colin. Our dogs were happy to see us when we picked them up, but felt no need to leave immediately and went right back to laying down and playing with their toys. A sure sign they'd been well taken care of. Definitely recommend.”
“Leslie does an awesome job with Benny. She’s calm and attentive to him. Her dog Willa gives him attention too. She’s super flexible with a few last minute changes I had on this trip. So very much appreciated.”
“Brett and Martha came as a recommendation and took great care of our boys while we were away. I felt comfortable from the moment I met Martha and will definitely use them again for our future needs. Thanks again Martha and Brett!”

“Jennifer O was the best! It was great to be able to visit my daughter knowing my Willow was being well cared for! She even came over before I left so she would be a familiar face! The daily updates and pics really helped me feel not so far away. I immediately took to Jennifer’s friendly, trustworthy, & knowledgeable air and her gentle, caring nature. I can’t rave about her enough! Your pet will be in good hands with Jennifer O!”
“Alyssa was amazing! She took great care of our three cats, two of which are special needs. She spent quality time making sure they were well fed, cleaned up after, exercised, and loved. Our special needs boys make quite a mess and she endured everything was pristine! I would highly recommend Alyssa! We hope to schedule with her on future trips!”
“This was my first time using Rover, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience thanks to Jennifer! She was incredibly communicative and attentive with my cat, who is usually very nonchalant and keeps to himself. The moment he gave her a headbutt during their first meet, I knew she was the perfect fit. Jennifer made me feel at ease while I was away, and I appreciated all the updates and care she provided. She also went above and beyond to help solve a never-ending battle with ants invading my cat’s food, I’m so thankful for her care and dedication. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and genuinely caring to look after their pets!”

We’ll absolutely use them again and can’t recommend them highly enough.”
“Emily is amazing! It was my first time leaving my baby for so long and she was so caring and attentive. I am so grateful for all the pictures and little updates I got. I looked forward to each one! Thank you Emily for making it easy to take a trip and know that my little Willow was taken care of and getting love!!”

“Lydia and Emmitt are the best cat sitters we’ve ever had! My cats have never really warmed up to any other cat sitters before but I got so many cute pictures of my sweet elderly guy playing with them and getting lots of love from them. They both went above and beyond and made our trip away from home a much better experience knowing our kitties were being cared for by the best! They will definitely be our go to sitters next trip!”
About: I have raised dogs all my life. I also have years of experience with cats, reptiles, and rabbits. I have potty trained many dogs and I’ve even taught my furry friends a few party tricks. Come and see! I work full-time as a school teacher. I am home on Saturdays and Sundays (aside from church) every week. Weekends are the best times to book boarding appointments with me. I am also available during many major holidays. I have a fenced-in backyard. I have three small dogs (under 15 pounds) and cats. I can separate my cats from your pet during the day if needed (as I have a furnished garage that they chill in). I also have a work sink where I can give animals under 20 lbs. baths. I live in a suburban environment in Dunedin, FL and I have extra medium-sized crates.
“Rebecca was available for us when my father-in-law passed away suddenly. She went out of her way to encourage our oldest cat to eat. We are all deeply grateful as he doesn't do well when we are all separated from him.”
About: I have years of experience caring for cats with all kinds of personalities, from playful kittens to shy or senior cats. I understand feline behavior and make sure your kitty feels safe, comfortable, and cared for. Feeding, litter changes, playtime, and plenty of affection are always part of the routine.
“We were very pleased with the care that Martha and Brett gave to our two pets, a dog and a cat! It was the first time that we welcomed them into our home. Our dog had a last minute procedure performed at the vet. She required a cone and four different medications. Martha and Brett did not even blink when they saw the extra care that would be necessary! Martha sent us daily updates and photos! My husband and I relaxed and enjoyed our visit with family knowing that our pets were in loving and capable care! Thank you so much Martha and Brett!”
“Erin is a joy to work with! She is caring, conscientious, dependable and kind! I was able to relax & enjoy our trip to visit with family knowing that Willow was well-cared for in Erin’s capable hands. Willow warmed to Erin right away and let her pet her & was even playful with her toys which is high praise because she usually hides herself away! Definitely 5 Stars & highly recommend!! 🌸💕”
“Christine came each day booked and took care of Gonzo as my mother was there but unable to do all the care giving. Christine was lovely to work with and made sure to let mom know when she was coming and sent me a picture each day making me feel up to date and that Gonzo was safe!”
“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!”
“Aditi responded quickly, was communicative, and receptive to all my needs and requests. I needed help taking care of my kitties and bunny during a busy workweek and Aditi was a lifesaver! Thank you! :)”
“I needed a last minute sitter and Elizabeth came through. My dogs looked happy when I came home and I was able to enjoy my evening knowing my dogs were well cared for. Highly recommend.”

“Athena and Richi were great with Lila! She was tuckered out after a day’s stay — which is hard to do! They sent update photos and videos, checked with me prior to giving any treats, and gave little status reports throughout the evening. You can tell they care for their pup guests just like they would their own dog. Felt extremely confident and relieved (and thankful!) that they kept her safe and entertained.”
“Jennifer was communicative with caring for our baby Luna. I can tell she and Olive had a great day playing together! We definitely recommend! Your pup will be in great hands with Jennifer.”
“Heather was able to watch my two dogs at last minute's notice! I am boarding them for 10 days in May, so this was a good trial to see how everything went. They seemed quite happy to be with Heather and the afternoon was a success! Thank you so much Heather!”

Frequent potty breaks and play time in the fenced backyard. Naps on the sofa or any of the dog beds around the house. I know how hard it is to find someone you trust.

“Norma was absolutely wonderful. I am extremely protective with my puppy and she exceeded any expectation I could have letting someone else care for him. Communicated the entire time and shared photos all along the way as I requested. Cannot sing her praise enough, 10 stars.”
“Fabulous week for Juno our Alaskan Husky mix! She was so settled and happy with Denise and her Border Collie Frankie! Such peace of mind knowing Juno was in good hands and happy. Denise is a wonderful person. She understands dogs and she totally gets dog owners worries too. Would not hesitate to use her again!”
“Shannon was absolutely amazing taking care of Benny. He was very accommodating to my needs for daycare, he kept in touch with me, sent me updates and photos. I love that his entire family is warm and welcoming. His own dog is a perfect playmate for Benny. He matched his energy and was so playful and sweet. I love that Benny was allowed to be on the couch and also hang out with Shannon and sleep by his feet at this desk. I really feel like my baby was taken care of and I trust Shannon with his care 100% and can say this family is perfect situation if you want your dog looked after all day. He also puts tracking on their collar to insure your dog doesn’t get lost if by some chance they got out which I don’t even see happening . The kids are a wonderful addition to helping keep the dogs entertained. You can’t ask for more. I am very grateful to have found Shannon here on Rover and I can rest easy knowing my baby is in good hands when I can’t be there.”
“AJ has been wonderful with our dog Josie! He has been so patient and kind with her and let her go at her own pace. She has had several visits and is getting more comfortable each time. AJ, Trish, and Goose are tremendous hosts. AJ is the bomb! I strongly recommend him and his family for doggie daycare.”

“Willow loved staying with Beata and her family and meeting new friends and spending a lot of time outside running in her large backyard! Beata was very responsive and sent lots of pictures!”
“Sarah and Adam were fantastic! They had no hesitation when asked without much notice if they could watch our 10 week old pup to give us a much needed break from a hectic few months of life so that we could venture to a show we’d bought tickets for months back. They sent pictures throughout her entire stay. Will definitely be reaching back out again as Ziva was well cuddled and cared for while there and we are sure we will definitely be in need of a break again soon. Thank you!!!!”
“Marquita was excellent. My puppy had a great time. Marquita was communicative and sent photo updates of my puppy. I will definitely be using her as a dog sitter next time I am in the area.”

About: Hello! My name is Emily - your friendly neighborhood pet sitter. As a life long animal lover, I provide care to dogs and cats of all breeds and ages. I keep my travel distance radius small so I may provide the highest quality of focused care to my clients - even on holidays. Quality time is everything when Mom and Dad are away! I look forward to spending one on one time with your pet, and maintaining their usual schedule. Please show me all of your pet's favorite toys and walking routes. And please don't forget to leave treats! I always schedule an initial meet and greet with new clients. I am happy to come to your home to review all details and instructions.
“I can’t say enough about how amazing Athena and Richi are in caring for my baby, Panda. This is my first time leaving town since I lost my 11-year-old bulldog, and I’ve been so nervous, but Athena and Richi have truly put my mind at ease. They’ve been so thoughtful with check-ins, pictures, and videos of Panda having a blast at the dog park—it’s clear they treat him like their own. The professionalism they bring to their care is top-notch, and I feel so comfortable knowing they’re there. What’s even better is that these are not just experiences I’m having while away; they’ve been just as wonderful during our weekly sessions with Panda as well. On top of that, they’ve even been kind enough to bring in packages for me! I’m so grateful for how accommodating and dependable they’ve been, and I genuinely appreciate everything they’ve done. Thank you, Athena and Richi—you’ve made this experience so much easier, and Panda loves his time with you!”
“Lydia is everything you want when you look for someone to watch your dog. She is patient, on time, respectful, and responsible. She never gives us any problems and is always reliable. We appreciate the care she takes of our dog. Highly recommend.”
“This was my first time using a dog walker, and it was a great experience! She was reliable, professional, and took wonderful care of my dog. Communication was excellent, and I felt completely comfortable knowing my pet was in good hands. We would definitely recommend her and will happily use her services again.”
“Regina is a very experienced dog walker/pet sitter. Her professionalism is apparent from her first visit. She is not someone who walks dogs to make a few bucks...this is a business she takes very seriously. My dog very much enjoys her daily visits and is very excited when Regina arrives. She makes us aware of any concerns she may have with my dogs heath or if there is any concerns at my house during the visit, which gives me peace of mind. I recommend Regina to anyone looking for a professional and reliable caregiver for their pet.”
“Martha is amazing! Wiggles is like velcro to here mama and she happily went with Martha and got excited when I told her Martha was coming. She was also gracious in accepting me as a client when I had covid, very kind and brave. I highly recommend Martha for walks or boarding. Thanks Martha!”
About: I have had a pet in my home since I was born. The first dog I remember was Ginger, then PJ, then Sparkie, then Jenna and Millie, Anja and Argus, then Bonnie and Clyde, and now we have our very friendly buddy, Gustav. They ranged from a miniature Schnauzer and Jack Russels to Rottweilers and German Shepherds. My closest friend's dad bred and trained German Shepherds while I was in high school. I was surrounded by a pack most of my life and loved it. I owned a local pup friendly pub for 14 years and made it a point to great every dog that came in. I am hoping for the chance to see some of those dogs again! My current schedule is very flexible, so I can focus on the pet's care when they need it. I understand that different pets require different things at different times and I am able and willing to accommodate with a bit of forewarning. I have a fenced in yard and a very friendly 10 month old puppy who loves new company. He and I go for walks around our neighborhood daily and we do outings to the park a few times a week. I have 2 cats that are indifferent to dogs and they have their own separate space so they can be alone if they want. I deep clean the litter boxes at least twice a week and would be happy to do the same for your kitties at your home. (Access to a hose outside is very helpful for this) I have room for crates and pets are not left outside unattended. I am very vigilant about picking up poop and want to keep a clean yard for the pups to play in.
“Brookelynn was fantastic! I have two older dogs. She was very patient with them and treated them kindly. She communicated effectively and provided me with several updates while I was away. I’m very pleased with the level of care she provided and would definitely use her services again!”
About: We are Leslie and Gareth. We have been dog people our whole lives. We live with our human son and our fur son Murray in an 1800 sq ft one story home in Dunedin, FL. Your dog can expect lots of love and rubs if he/she is up for it. Murray can be on the timid side so we are also accustomed to dogs who prefer to be alone in new circumstances. Our neighborhood is convenient to Countryside, Palm Harbor, Dunedin and Clearwater. I have always had a dog in my home growing up. We adopted Murray when he was 6 months old and he very quickly became part of our family. I worked with him on puppy issues, like chewing and understanding the pecking order. I was on the ASPCA website daily looking for tips and suggestions. As a result, we have a well-behaved boy who is comfortable in his place in our family and brings a lot of joy and love into our home. Our backyard is approximately 1000 sq ft and is completely fenced in. The fence on the side is 4' picket and the fence at the back is 8' privacy fence (like stockade but fancier). It is flat and covered in grass with three trees and flower beds. We have a bird feeder that attracts birds and squirrels. I don't want the squirrels there so the dogs are free to chase them away to their heart's content! One of the adults is home all day with the exception of Thursdays (when someone is home half of the day). Walking is limited to Wednesdays and Fridays but we are open to boarding seven days per week. We have a fully fenced yard that has grass and flower beds (see photos for size). The dogs have the run of the house with the exception of two bedrooms. We even have a designated dog couch in our living room.
About: I LOVE ANIMALS and have had all kinds in my lifetime. I have had three large dogs at once, couple of cats and my children have pets, which I am constantly watching and taking care of them when they go out of town. I work at home already so I have lots of time to spend with animals. PET sitting in my home is perfect as I have a nice fenced in yard and they can come and go as needed in and out of house, whatever makes the animal comfortable. I have saved animals that are stray and did not hesitate to take them in. I only have one little dog now and one cat and would luv to pet sit at a reasonable rate to anyone who needs help.
About: I’ve grown up around large dogs. I love dogs of all breeds and sizes and I’ll care for your animals as if they are my own! I’m currently going to night school during the week and am looking for more day time work to help support myself. I am open to weekends. I can take your pups on a nice walk around the neighborhood or I can take them to the park to play with other dogs.
About: I work full-time from home, I love the outdoors, music, and dogs. I grew up having dogs and my boyfriend and I do have a dog together. He loves other dogs! He is very friendly and not aggressive at all. He enjoys having company! I can do weekdays and weekends. Our dog loves dog parks, I have no problem taking yours along with us! I do require the use of a crate for when there is no one home, it just ensures that both dogs are safe and not getting into any funny business - especially with one being in a new home. Also, please be transparent about your dog's energy levels. Since I do work from home, knowing your dogs typical temperament is extremely helpful to ensure I can properly care for your pup! Have no fear, your pup will be well taken care of! It fits pretty seamlessly. My son is at school most of the day and the flexibility in my schedule allows me to give your pet the attention and care they deserve! I rely heavily on the direction of the owner. I think it's best to keep the dogs schedule as similar to what they experience at home. Of course I use my own experience and judgement situationally, however, I have found consistency is best.

About: I care for dogs and cats of all ages, from energetic youngsters to sweet seniors who prefer the slower, cozier side of life. I’m patient, attentive, and adaptable. High energy? Let’s play. Nervous and shy? I’ll move at their pace. Senior pet who needs medication, extra mobility support, or a strict feeding schedule? I’ve got it handled calmly and carefully. I pay attention to the little details — changes in behavior, appetite, or mood — and I always keep you updated so you never have to wonder how things are going. Expect photos, check-ins, and probably at least one message about how adorable your pet is. Reliable, communicative, and fully committed to making your pet feel safe, loved, and slightly spoiled, that’s what I bring to the table (treats included, if approved by management). As a retiree, pet care fits very naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to the pets in my care, which means they’re never squeezed in between meetings or long work hours. My days are calm, structured, and centered around home life; perfect for maintaining a pet’s normal routine. Whether it’s regular potty breaks, play sessions, medication schedules, or just quiet time together, I’m able to give pets consistent attention throughout the day. I’m home often, so pets who prefer company (or need a little extra supervision) are well cared for. Pet sitting fits my lifestyle because I truly enjoy the companionship and purpose it brings to my week. It keeps me active, engaged, and doing something I genuinely love; caring for animals and giving their owners peace of mind. When pets stay in my home, my goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and part of the family. I provide a calm, structured environment where they receive plenty of attention, supervision, and affection throughout the day. I stick closely to each pet’s normal routine — including feeding schedules, walk times, potty breaks, playtime, and any special care instructions. If medication is needed, I administer it carefully and on schedule. I also pay close attention to their behavior, appetite, and energy levels to make sure they’re adjusting well and feeling their best. Because I’m retired and home often, pets aren’t left alone for long periods. They get consistent companionship, gentle engagement, and a cozy place to relax. Whether they’re active and playful or prefer quiet cuddle time, I adapt to their personality and comfort level. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident and connected while they’re away. My goal is for pets to feel loved, secure, and right at home until their family returns.

She also sent regular updates. This was my first trip where I could relax with a peaceful mind because I knew my dog was in good hands. I am really happy I met her, and she will definitely be my go-to dog sitter from now on.”

It was my first time leaving my fur baby, I was nervous but Stephen made this process so smooth! Kovu was sooo happy being there, I don’t think he had time to even miss me. I received multiples photos throughout the day which made me smile each time. I will without a doubt be booking with Stephen again!”
“Leslie does an awesome job with Benny. She’s calm and attentive to him. Her dog Willa gives him attention too. She’s super flexible with a few last minute changes I had on this trip. So very much appreciated.”
“Brett and Martha came as a recommendation and took great care of our boys while we were away. I felt comfortable from the moment I met Martha and will definitely use them again for our future needs. Thanks again Martha and Brett!”
“Lori provided us the comfort of knowing our dogs were happy and well looked after. She was flexible and kept us in plenty of pictures. Lori made a difficult week for our family so much easier. Thank you so much Lori! ”
“First time Rover user and we were absolutely thrilled with Angie! We have no reason to look any further for our future boarding needs. From our very first communication, Angie was personable, warm and welcoming. She embraced our pups as if they were her own.... and on very short notice. We just moved to Tampa, away from our previous boarder, whom we thought would be irreplaceable. We had a bit of trepidation about a weekend getaway and having to find someone new to sit our Jack and Jill. Angie's profile and her flawless reviews, with so many repeat clients, gave me hope. From my first contact, my heart and mind were set at ease and I knew Angie was "the one". She has an incomparable love of animals that shows in everything she says and does. Her home is warm, inviting and filled with animal kisses. Jack and Jill settled in immediately, became friends with Angie's pups and her guest pups, and were completely exhausted when they came home after a weekend of so much fun. Angie checked-in with us regularly during our getaway, and we could see from the pics that Jack and Jill might not even want to come home when we returned. :) We 100% without any reservation recommend Angie for anyone needing a loving sitter for their fur-kids. After just one weekend with Angie, we feel like she is part of our family. We will most definiteily, absolutely without a doubt be repeat clients!”
“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!”
“Jennifer was a great hostess for our girl Zoey. Great communication and loved on our girl while we were away. We will definitely book again and would highly recommend Jennifer to others.”
About: I have my own dog, August, who is my entire world! Before I got him, I always had family dogs growing up. I know everything that goes into caring for pets and keeping them happy and healthy. I will treat yours like my own! On the weekends, my schedule is wide open! During the weeks, I leave for work at 8:45 am and get back around 5:15. I am able to leave work 1-2 times/day to let a pup out! I have had dogs and dog and cat sat all my life and confidently know how to care for them in both my home or yours!
“Richard and Carmen are amazing people! They loved on Luna and made her feel comfortable and right at home from the first night! They sent pictures regularly, and loved her like their own. We will definitely be using them again when we have the need, and refer our friends their way!”
“Diamond had a blast staying with Alli and her pups! Alli updated us several times during the stay and was very accommodating when we had to push back our pick up time. Diamond had the ability to run around outside with her dogs and it definitely tired her out! She fell asleep as soon as we got home! We would definitely book with Alli in the future!”
“Courtney was very sweet and took great care of my pup! She exceeded expectations by taking my dogo to the doggy park and for frequent walks. Her communication throughout the day was great and she took the best photos of my pup interacting with others. Would definitely use her as a sitter again!”
