“Juan Pablo took excellent care of our two dogs. He sent us regular pics and videos. He provided a positive social environment with his dog and other neighbour’s dogs. It was like one big Chi family. We had a great time on our vacation knowing our dogs were well taken care of. The peace of mind is priceless!”
“Payal was amazing taking care of Ted! Communication was 10/10: she shared pictures and videos all the time, and I could clearly see my dog was happy and in great hands. I strongly recommend her!”
“Taylor was amazing with my dog Ozzy! She kept me updated, made me feel completely comfortable while I was away, and treated him like her own. Ozzy was so happy and well taken care of when I got back. I would absolutely trust Taylor again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!”
“This is my first time using Nicole and she was fantastic. Very communicative and put me at ease leaving Chloe with her. She sent multiple pictures and videos throughout her stay there and it looked like she was well cared for and had a great time playing with the other dogs there. Would definitely recommend her and will absolutely be using her again.”
“Banksy had wonderful time with Gregory. He sent plenty of pictures and updates. He was also so understanding of Banksy's medical needs. We look forward to using him again.”
“Absolutely will recommend Jessica anytime. She has been great with my fur baby both times I’ve trusted Jessica with her. She communicates and sends me photos of my baby throughout. Even did a photoshoot with her last time!”
About: I’ve always been an animal lover. I raised two dogs from puppyhood. Lucy lived to 18, and my current pup, Porscha, is now 14. I also have a 15 year old cat, AppleJack, I’ve had since she was a kitten. So I know what it’s like to care for pets at every stage of life, from playful zoomies to slower senior strolls. I started pet sitting because I wasn’t looking to commit to another full time pet, but I still wanted to spend my days caring for animals and helping fellow pet parents. Whether it’s a quick walk, overnight stay, or just some company while you’re away, I’m here to give your pet the love and attention they deserve. I’m especially great with: Puppies and senior pets Shy or anxious animals Keeping routines and providing lots of updates (with cute pics!) At Playful Paws, your pet will feel safe, loved, and totally at home. I work fully remote, and so does my husband, which gives us the flexibility to provide consistent, attentive care throughout the day. Whether your pet needs a morning walk, a midday check-in, or some evening cuddles, we’re usually home and available to help. Being remote means your pet won’t be left alone for long periods, and we can easily adjust to their routine. Weekdays, weekends, we’re here to keep tails wagging and whiskers happy. Whether your pet is staying with me or I’m visiting them in your home, their safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I treat every pet like they’re my own, with patience, love, and respect for their routine. At home, I create a calm, pet-friendly environment with cozy spaces, a clean setting, and plenty of playtime. My husband and I both work remotely, so someone’s almost always home for companionship and supervision. In your home, I’m mindful of your space and your pet’s habits. I follow instructions closely, whether that’s meal times, meds, or favorite toys, and I always keep things tidy and secure. You’ll get regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your fur baby is in caring, capable hands.
“Wow smoothest booking ever! I don’t regret picking Camilla and her mother as my fur baby sitter. The residence is so beautiful and well tooken care of Camilla’s mother is such a sweetheart my pup was so happy being there I will definitely book again and again thank you again ❤️”
“Wow, what a great experience with Valeria taking care of my little baby! This was my first time using a sitter and I was really missing my pup. She kept me regularly updated with pictures and how he was doing. I could tell he was happy and well cared for. I will definitely be using her services again and feel very comfortable recommending her to anyone.”
“Valeria did an amazing job with Moby and Scooby! I was extremely anxious about leaving them but Valeria eased my anxiety with all the wonderful updates and pictures. Thank you for taking such good care of our boys!”
“Our dog’s second stay with Jerrie & Freeman was just as wonderful as the first. They provided such attentive, thoughtful care and kept us consistently updated throughout, which gave us real peace of mind. It’s clear our dog felt comfortable and had an amazing time with them. We’ll absolutely be back whenever we need care again.”
“Finding someone you trust to watch your dog is a big deal! Adrian was wonderful with Mica and sent many pictures where he looked very happy. The doggy playmates were wonderful for him. Adrian has an obvious love and compassion and it shows in Mica when he came home. We will be using her again.”
“Jackie was amazing with my dog! He absolutely loved her. She was also great at communicating with me throught his entire stay which is an added bonus. Her services were excellent and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter.”
“José, was a great host, he always sent us photos and warned us when she took it out, he complied with the routine that our dog was used to, we felt very confident from the beginning, excellent host!”
About: I have been taking care of pets since a young age and have always volunteered at local shelters. I helped a lot with the foster programs for dogs while attending Florida State University. Growing up I was always attentive to our childhood dog who is is now approaching 15yrs old. She isn’t able to leave our family’s home due to age/health and Is staying in my hometown. I would love to be able to bond and give care to other dogs while living here! I currently just moved downtown FTL and I’m self employed/remote. Which ables me to have extra time on my hands. I would thoroughly enjoy to spend some of that extra time providing care/support to animals in the neighborhood. I have very open availability and able to work schedules around clients wants/needs. Caring for an animal is a responsibility that shouldn’t be taking lightly. I think it’s important to ensure that the pet has a welcoming/friendly environment while maintaining safety. It’s important to be aware of surroundings and understand your clients animal on what works best for them. Understanding the pets personality and how it operates the best is important to ensure a fun and safe experience for all parties involved.
“Absolutely fantastic. I plan on using Gheraldine whenever I travel. She’s not the closest, but I feel so comfortable leaving my baby with her. Pics, videos, updates - all the good stuff to make me feel at peace. HIGHLY recommend her services.”
“Kelly is the absolute BEST! From the moment we arrived my fur baby felt at ease and was excited to play. Her home is clean and has a doggy summer camp vibe with all the toys she provides! Rosie is very attached to me so I felt at ease with all the photos and videos Kelly provided me of Rosie having fun! To be honest, I think Rosie was a litttle sad to leave. I will definitely be using Kelly again and would 10 out of 10 recommend her!”
“Carmel and her husband were awesome dog sitters! All of the reviews here are very accurate. We have two 7 month old puppies and we are very nervous puppy parents. We would never leave them with anyone that we did not trust. It was great that Carmel arranged a meet and greet for us and the pups. We felt at ease when it was time to drop them off. Based on the amount of attention they got (from Carmel, Mark, J.R. and Layla) and the comfortable home and yard, we were seriously worried that they would not want to go home with us. Well they did but now we know that they will be totally comfortable the next time we have to drop them off.”
“Catherine is the BEST caregiver of our sweet dog Ridley! She truly goes out of her way to communicate and provide videos, pictures and updates. I cannot say enough great things about Catherine and her family! Thank you so very much for this positive and happy experience! I feel that we have not only met the best sitter for our dog, but we have made a new friend! Awesome!”

“Billi provided an exceptional experience caring for my two cats, Mimi and Pin-get, and I cannot recommend her highly enough. Mimi is my 9-year-old tuxedo cat and is normally very shy around new people, so I was amazed when she immediately felt comfortable with Billi during the meet and greet. That moment alone reassured me that Billi truly has a natural connection with animals. During each drop-in visit, Billi kept me consistently updated with photos and videos, which meant so much to me. Seeing Mimi happily sitting on her lap and watching both of my fur babies interacting comfortably with her made my heart smile and gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. Billi is professional, reliable, attentive, and genuinely caring. She clearly takes the time to ensure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Her communication and thoughtful updates made the entire experience stress-free. If you are looking for someone trustworthy who will care for your pets as if they were her own, I highly recommend Billi. I will absolutely be booking her again for future visits with Mimi and Pin-get.”
“Estefania was a perfect sitter! She went above and beyond for me while I was away. My cat was in love with her and he looks forward to her next visit. Thank you!”

“I was a little nervous about leaving our 4 kitties to someone new after years of being taken care of by our regular sitter, however Krystal was extraordinary! All of them warmed up to her and communication was great! A friend stopped in during the week to spend some time with them, and all food, water, litter and cleanliness were also well tended… thank you Krystal!”
“Alexandra took excellent care of my kitty. She was punctual, very communicative, and sent lots of pictures throughout my trip. Most importantly, my cat was happy, healthy, and well cared for when I returned home. I would gladly book with her again.”
“Mara made an instant connection with my shy girl Prima! She did a great job taking care of Prima while I was away and always made sure to send me videos or pictures when she was doing her drop in to visit and care for Prima. Her communication was good and she was flexible with things like scheduling the meet and greet and returning the keys to my apartment.”
“Robin was fantastic! Definitely a professional-- knows what she is doing. Knew what questions to ask and sent great photos of play w the pets. Appreciated how super tidy she left everything-- taking out trash and recycling. Would definitely use again.”
“Kim is absolutely amazing! My cat needs special care because she’s a diabetic and she’s super spicy as well. I was so relieved that Kim was able to get her to warm up and handle her spiciness with the best care possible. I will be relying on Kim in the future as needed for sure and I highly recommend her services to everyone.”
“Christina is everything you want in a sitter. Kind, responsible and caring. Having her watch after my kitty while I was away made me feel secure and I was able to enjoy my trip :) I will definitely be rebooking ♥️”
“Vadim and Anastasiia are the best! Always giving great updates when checking in on our cats and overall very caring when watching over the cats! Really recommend them!! Thank you so much!”
“These ladies are AWESOME! Took great care of Tyson, sent pics daily, and even advised when he was having some trouble with bladder control. Their home is clean, spacious and totally pet-friendly. Their doggies are also very friendly and playful too. Recommend them to anyone:)”
“Sandy is wonderful! She did an incredible job watching my two cats with thorough updates and was very professional. I highly recommend her and will definitely count on her again to watch my babies!”
“Marianne went above and beyond to make our shy kitty, Sushi, comfortable and happy. We will definitely book her again as she was so attractive to both our pet and our home. She was communicative, flexible, friendly, and thoughtful. Thank you so much, Marianne. You were perfection!!”
“Lilo loves his drop in visits with Alyssa! She always plays with him and leaves the place great. He can be a little shy so she does great with him.”
“My two cats really enjoy Dawn from the moment she walks in. The photos she sends show them interacting with her and being playful, she is my go to when I’m away!”

“We received communication throughout the stay and felt comfortable that our dog was well cared for; would definitely book again and recommend.”
“Benson looked very comfortable in his day care photos and was so happy to hear he was well behaved with Porscha and Applejack! I would definitely work with Billi again”
“When I picked up my dog, he looked genuinely happy and comfortable. It was clear he was well cared for and enjoyed his stay. I really appreciate the great care, and I’ll definitely be leaving him more often in the future!”
“I had to find a sitter very last minute due to an unexpected conflict, and Kat truly came through for me when I was in a bind. She responded quickly, was extremely understanding of my situation, and immediately put me at ease. Her communication was excellent—she sent regular updates and photos throughout the day, which really helped calm my anxiety and let me know my pup was happy and well cared for. Kat’s building was a huge bonus—it’s extremely dog-friendly and has the cutest pups lol There was a private dog run right along the water that she was able to take my sweet dolly to,and a gorgeous park just across the street. It was clear from the updates that my dog was getting plenty of outdoor time and stimulation. I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better setup. Reliability is everything when trusting someone with your pet, and Kat exceeded expectations. She was warm, professional, and totally dependable. I would absolutely book with her again 💖”
“Gheraldine is very sweet! She was attentive in understanding Bruno’s needs for the day, and when I received my card at the end of the day, my dog was well looked after. Thank you!!”
“My first time using Rover was to book a full day of daycare for my dog with Molly and Matt. I am SO glad I did! Molly exceeded my communication expectations and ensured my pup had the best day in her home, especially in the backyard! I highly recommend Molly and Matt and won't hesitate to book with them again”

My dog is my baby, so the couch and bed is her lounge place. I have a spare bedroom that will be a perfect getaway for your baby. Providing them with their own safe place.
“I wanted to thank you for the wonderful care you gave my dog during daycare. It gave me such peace of mind knowing my dog was safe, happy, and well cared for while I was away. Your kindness, patience, and attention to detail were truly appreciated.”

About: Lifelong dog lover and current med student here! Raised alongside a Cockapoo and a Goldendoodle since I was six, I’ve spent nearly my whole life caring for pups.

About: I’ve always been an animal lover. I raised two dogs from puppyhood. Lucy lived to 18, and my current pup, Porscha, is now 14. I also have a 15 year old cat, AppleJack, I’ve had since she was a kitten. So I know what it’s like to care for pets at every stage of life, from playful zoomies to slower senior strolls. I started pet sitting because I wasn’t looking to commit to another full time pet, but I still wanted to spend my days caring for animals and helping fellow pet parents. Whether it’s a quick walk, overnight stay, or just some company while you’re away, I’m here to give your pet the love and attention they deserve. I’m especially great with: Puppies and senior pets Shy or anxious animals Keeping routines and providing lots of updates (with cute pics!)

Being remote means your pet won’t be left alone for long periods, and we can easily adjust to their routine. Weekdays, weekends, we’re here to keep tails wagging and whiskers happy. Whether your pet is staying with me or I’m visiting them in your home, their safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I treat every pet like they’re my own, with patience, love, and respect for their routine. At home, I create a calm, pet-friendly environment with cozy spaces, a clean setting, and plenty of playtime. My husband and I both work remotely, so someone’s almost always home for companionship and supervision. In your home, I’m mindful of your space and your pet’s habits. I follow instructions closely, whether that’s meal times, meds, or favorite toys, and I always keep things tidy and secure. You’ll get regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your fur baby is in caring, capable hands.
“Valeria did an amazing job with Moby and Scooby! I was extremely anxious about leaving them but Valeria eased my anxiety with all the wonderful updates and pictures. Thank you for taking such good care of our boys!”
“Jackie was amazing with my dog! He absolutely loved her. She was also great at communicating with me throught his entire stay which is an added bonus. Her services were excellent and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter.”
About: I have been taking care of pets since a young age and have always volunteered at local shelters. I helped a lot with the foster programs for dogs while attending Florida State University. Growing up I was always attentive to our childhood dog who is is now approaching 15yrs old. She isn’t able to leave our family’s home due to age/health and Is staying in my hometown. I would love to be able to bond and give care to other dogs while living here! I currently just moved downtown FTL and I’m self employed/remote. Which ables me to have extra time on my hands. I would thoroughly enjoy to spend some of that extra time providing care/support to animals in the neighborhood. I have very open availability and able to work schedules around clients wants/needs. Caring for an animal is a responsibility that shouldn’t be taking lightly. I think it’s important to ensure that the pet has a welcoming/friendly environment while maintaining safety. It’s important to be aware of surroundings and understand your clients animal on what works best for them. Understanding the pets personality and how it operates the best is important to ensure a fun and safe experience for all parties involved.
“Absolutely fantastic. I plan on using Gheraldine whenever I travel. She’s not the closest, but I feel so comfortable leaving my baby with her. Pics, videos, updates - all the good stuff to make me feel at peace. HIGHLY recommend her services.”
“Kelly is the absolute BEST! From the moment we arrived my fur baby felt at ease and was excited to play. Her home is clean and has a doggy summer camp vibe with all the toys she provides! Rosie is very attached to me so I felt at ease with all the photos and videos Kelly provided me of Rosie having fun! To be honest, I think Rosie was a litttle sad to leave. I will definitely be using Kelly again and would 10 out of 10 recommend her!”
“Definitely a 5 Star sitter. I contacted Taylor on very short notice. She responded within 10 minutes. She was watching my dog with in 1 hour. My dog Cookie really liked staying with Taylor. She was very loving to my dog. Taylor sent me several pictures and videos of my dog during the day. I would highly recommend Taylor to watch your pet. We are definitely going to use Taylor again to watch my dog. 👏”

“Jennifer always takes great care of Luna and send regular updates. Luna's next stay is already booked since she loves staying with Jennifer and her dog Kona!”
“Natalie was awesome! She was great at communicating and sending pictures of my girlie. Natalie was very patient with my girl that needs a pill with each meal too. I went into this booking thinking I had filtered for taking one dog at a time, but found out quickly that was not the case, haha. Natalie did send me a picture of each new dog as it arrived, which is how I found out. BUT it actually worked out great! My dog loved having some friends to hang out with while we were gone. I think my dog will be sleeping for a few days now after having so much fun.”
“Marcos was awesome. He provided daily photos, videos, and care to Max as if I was still with Max at home. Max is very high energy and Marcos loved on Max with protective love and care. Thank you so much Marcos, Max truly enjoyed himself and even socialized with other dogs while I was away. Thank you for caring for my big baby Max.”
“Anita was fantastic! Tully our King Charles cavalier spent nearly two weeks at Anitas place - she was well looked after and was happy in her care - the enclosed back yard was perfect for her along with the walks. We were updated with photos and fab communication. Would highly recommend Anita and we are very grateful.”
“Natalie is amazing! She has stayed with our dog twice at her home, and we will definitely use her services again in the future. She's very caring and loving, and sends us picture updates everyday. Also, she's very accommodating. My dog is very energetic, and she's very patient and loving with him. We have referred her to friends, and will continue to refer her. Thank you Natalie for taking such great care of our puppy!”
“Antonio did great with our dog Luna! It was her first time (and ours) boarding and Antonio was very patient in answering all of our questions. We were able to set up a meet and greet for Luna ahead of time, which helped ease our minds, as she is a very shy dog. He sent regular updates and photos, and Luna came home a happy pup. We would reccomend and board again with Antonio in the future!”
“Ely was great. She took care of Ariel with so much love. She sent me pictures and videos often and it was really easy to communicate with her. I definitely recommend her.”
“Ariel was absolutely wonderful! She was very communicative throughout the weekend, sending updates and pictures that gave me peace of mind. Archie was clearly well cared for and happy when I returned. I highly recommend Ariel and will definitely be booking with her again!”
“I always leave my American Bully with Judy when I go away on trips and she is the best! She always sends me videos and pictures and I always see my pup happy so that makes me happy. I highly recommend her.”
“I’m a repeat customer and Miss Violet is always as happy as can be when pick her up from a stay with Sean. Great communication and has been flexible, which is so appreciated !”
