“Linda took wonderful care of my chi-pin, Tiberius. She kept me updated and spent lots of time walking him and snuggling with him on the couch. When I picked him up, he was healthy and happy!”
“David took such great care of our dog! He sent lots of pictures and we could tell she was very happy and felt safe with him. She can get anxious so it meant the world to us that we didn’t have to worry about her when she was with David. We will definitely book with him again!!”
About: For the past 7 years I have been the go-to pet caretaker in my neighborhood, treating every dog like a member of my own family. Dogs have been members of my own family for the last 22 years. Your pets safety, happiness, and comfort are my top priorities, and I promise to send plenty of photo updates so you can enjoy total peace of mind. I am currently working from home which give me the flexibility to be available anytime Monday- Sunday. I can do house visits for walks and check-ins. I live in a house with my husband and 1 1/2 yr old Yorkie. Our Yorkie loves other dogs and loves to play. We do not have a fenced in yard, however we have a beautiful neighborhood to walk in set far back from any main roads. I'm experienced with premium nutrition and happy to accommodate complex feeding and supplement schedules. Whether your pet is on a traditional diet, human-grade fresh food, or a precise freeze-dried raw regimen, I understand the importance of exact measurements and strict food safety handling.

Thank you Daniel for your service to service to our country - we salute our veterans!”
“Sydney is so wonderful. My Velcro dog barely looks back at me when he spends a weekend with her. She sends frequent updates, and I feel totally comfortable having her watch my baby”

“Sally was wonderful to work with and we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for our dog. It’s always hard leaving your dog with someone new; she went out of her way to text us regularly with pictures and updates giving us peace of mind while we were away. This is our second time booking Sally and our dog was THRILLED to be back. We felt that our dog was in great hands and really appreciate the love that she gave him while we were gone. We know Bennie misses his new friend!”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Brian and Julie were absolutely amazing sitters for our sweet Sephora! 🐶 From the start, they treated her like family, making sure she was comfortable and well cared for. Horacio was kind enough to share his couch! They even fed her sweet potatoes! Throughout her stay, they proactively sent us photos of her enjoying her little vacation by going on fun walks around the lake and getting lots of love. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing she was in such great hands. 🐾 To top it all off, they went above and beyond by jump-starting my car when I was on my way to pick her up! Truly incredible people. ❤️ I highly recommend Brian and Julie for anyone looking for trustworthy, kind, and caring pet sitters! 🏡🐕✨”

“Grant had great communication and kept us posted on how Gator was doing with updates and pictures. He was great with Gator and we'd definitely use him again! Would highly recommend Grant!”

“Baxter had a fantastic stay. It was lovely to get updates and pictures across the stay which put as at total ease that he was having a great vacation.

About: Hi fur moms and dads! I'm Marinella and after 15 years of having two energetic terriers on my hands, I find myself with an empty dog nest and plenty of time to care for your kiddos. I love actually spending time with animals when I watch them and after having senior pets, I take instructions pretty seriously. Whether it's an overnight you need or just a walk when you get delayed during your day, I'm your girl. I do have a kitty at home so for boarding, your pups would have to be very friendly with cats. Right now, I’m unemployed so I am able to care for your pets as long as I’m in the area. I wake up very early most days: 6 am at the latest. I’m not a big sleeper so if your pet needs attention at 2 am, I’m okay with that! In my home, the pets would have to be comfortable with a condo. I have a screened patio and I live on the first floor. There’s plenty of grass and open space for walking in the complex. At your place it’s totally your call how you want me to handle your pet.
“I can't say enough positive things about Kyleigh! She did an excellent job with the drop-in visits for my dog, taking her out, feeding her, and keeping her happy. She also managed to fit in a last-minute visit when I took longer than expected returning home, which saved the day. Super dependable, courteous, and professional. I highly suggest her for amazing pet care!”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Gandy
“Voici une version corrigée : Kierra was absolutely amazing with Lucky! She took such great care of her and kept us updated with photos and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear that Lucky was happy, comfortable, and well loved while he was with her. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would definitely book with Kierra again. Thank you so much!”
“Kiley was amazing and took such good care of my dog Nike! We met her dog Skylar right out the gate and I could already tell Nike and her were going to get along just fine. She sent me a ton of photos to let me know how Nike was doing and when I picked him up he was so happy and tired out. Would recommend 100%”

“I had a last minute request (day before) for someone to watch my dog for a day because he recently injured his pads on all 4 feet and I needed to go to work but was not comfortable leaving him alone. At the time when Kathleen watched him, he was in a cone and on medication. When we talked beforehand, Kathleen was very kind and thoughtful, asking great questions and anticipating potential needs to make sure he would be safe and comfy in her care. While watching him, he ended up feeling a bit better than he had been in previous days and not as groggy from his medications, so was not as calm as I thought he would be for her, but she still did a great job of making sure he stayed safe and did not re-injure his feet. She provided updates at reasonable intervals without me having to ask and was very kind the entire time, even with me not knowing exactly what time I would be able to pick him up. Thanks so much to Kathleen, I would definitely trust her to watch my boy again.”

“I'm so happy I found Rachel! My Dante is doing better than expected and he's happy and energetic when I pick him up! His normal Texas sitter feeds him too many treats and plays him so hard, he is exhausted when I pick him up. I totally prefer his daycare now cause he has energy for his momma 😃. Thank you, Rachel! I can tell you he knows Peppa and Ocean by name cause he perks up when I tell him he's going to see them.”
About: I We recently welcomed a new family member — a 4.5-month-old dachshund puppy (a boy), full of character and curiosity. I have experience raising a German Shepherd with a strong focus on education and obedience, as well as raising two wonderful dachshunds. I’m well aware of how clever dogs can be when it comes to begging or manipulating — and I never give in. I truly love animals and enjoy spending time with them. I’m happy to walk your dog around my pet-friendly apartment complex or take them on a short trip to the beach, just 5 minutes away. Your pet will be safe, well-cared for, and loved Hello everyone,✌️ My name is Alex, and I'm 36 years old. I work online, so I spend 90% of my time at home. I love waking up early for a jog or a morning walk. Growing up, I was always surrounded by dogs. My family always had dogs and cats, so my love for animals dates back to my childhood. Sadly, a year ago, my beloved German Shepherd, who had been with me for 13 years, passed away. Currently, I'm not ready to welcome a new friend and family member, but I miss the emotions that dogs provide. That's why I registered in this app. My goal wasn't to earn money, but to interact with dogs and meet new people. If your dogs love walks, I'd be more than happy to join them or even take them to the beach. I'm married, and my wife loves dogs just as much as I do. She works as a hairdresser. She's not too keen on morning walks, so I'm in need of a walking partner. 🤣 Dog Care - Everything needed will be done. Washing paws after a walk or a full bath after the beach is no problem. Feeding will be on schedule as you instruct. Any requests and recommendations will be followed.

About: I grew up on a small farm with chickens, goats and dogs. I've taken care of my familys animals and sat for neighbors. I had a job feeding and caring for horses and was a trail guide for a little while. I drive for Uber so I pretty much make my own schedule. I'm pretty easy going.

About: I got my first cat when I was 5 and as I grew up we adopted more cats, and rescued a dog. My last few roommates have had dogs (a husky, lab mix, and mutt) that I’ve helped take care of as well. I worked for a local veterinary company for two years so am familiar with some general practices and urgent cares in the area as well. I am currently in grad school for social work! My schedule varies day to day, I have classes on Saturday mornings and an internship 2 days/week. During the school year, I teach part-time for a nonprofit. In the summer I primarily do rover for income, so I have more availability during these months! I live in a neighborhood with a dog park and sidewalks that are great for walks! Happy to walk 30+ mins or more depending on what your pup is used to!
About: I am an animal science student with a concentration in animal behavior and wellbeing. In the agricultural community, I raised and showed an award winning rabbit. Last semester, I was an animal care intern at Columbian Park Zoo. I have nearly a decade experience working in pet care. In addition, my family fosters animals. I am seeking employment in pet care to fill my spare time with a furry companion. I have a flexible schedule in the morning and evening during the week. I am available Thursday-Sunday for weekend stays. When I was in third grade, my family opened our home to foster animals. Throughout the last 11 years, we have cared for animals with parvo, double ear infections, malnourishment, etc. The foster organization trusts us to nourish these animals back to health and prepare them for their forever homes. When I visit client homes, I spend quality time with animals providing them with enrichment. I pride myself on reliability, my clients trust and depend on me to care for their beloved pets. In addition to my experiences, my coursework focuses on animal behavior and wellbeing which helps enhance my services.
“Kimi was such a huge help on such short notice! My dog is very shy at first but she was very patient with him to ensure he warmed up to her. You can tell she has great love for dogs and truly cares! Definitely recommend.”
About: I have had dogs all my life, thankfully. Ever since I was born, I either had dogs of my own or have had them closely in my life. From the time I was born until I went to college, our family always had dogs, and my mother was a member of the National Springer Spaniel Rescue League. She would drive anywhere in the country to pick up and rescue abused dogs when needed, and she taught me from a young age how to care for, nurture, heal, and raise pups. After moving to Florida years ago, I have always had dogs around me, as some of my closest friends have the best pups. I make sure they always get extra love on the daily, and a birthday cake every year! I have lived with them each at different times, and have always loved the experience. I travel at times for work, so I have held off on getting my own until I know I can provide the best environment and schedule for them :) I request dog bars locally with my friend's dogs and we always have such an incredible time. Puppies, older dogs, those with trauma or anxiety - I know them all very well and easily cater to each dog's specific needs. As long as we have open communication, I can be flexible with my schedule while caring for your pups. Dogs are not just pets; they are a part of and an extension of your family! So in my eyes, they require just as much thought and care as a family member. Any special needs, requests, etc, we can talk through and make sure every detail is taken care of! Each dog has a unique personality, much like we do. Trust is established slowly upon meeting them for the first time, and on their time - that means that whether they are quick to warm up and play, or just need a minute, I am well-versed in that and here for them in its entirety. I am very comfortable with taking care of dogs in their home environments. Let me know if they have favorite spots, walking routes, toys, treats, etc, and I will make sure each visit is personalized :)
About: I've had all kinds of pets growing up- fish, cats, and dogs. I understand how important companions are to everyone. They're part of our families. I've helped take care of my family's pets as well as my friends' pets since I was in elementary school. I will treat your pets as though they're my own, with the same love and affection you'd give them. I work part-time and get my schedule up to 2 weeks in advance, meaning it's easy for me to make time for your pets! Taking care of a pet helps me better create a schedule for myself, so watching your pet helps me just as much as it helps them. I'd like to treat your pets with the same love and respect that you have for them. I will walk, feed, play, or bathe them as much as you'd like me to. My pets are allowed on the furniture so conversations about the boundaries your pet can have is important to me.

About: I grew up with dogs my entire life and have been entrusted with many friend’s dogs over the years. I have cared for all types of dogs from puppies to elderly dogs. As long as you have a list of how to care for them, I’ll follow all your guidelines! I’m currently in-between jobs and looking to dogsit full-time while I look for my next job. I’ve got plenty of time at home to care for your dog! I live on the first floor of an apartment complex with an outdoor balcony. I can walk your dog as often as needed. They are allowed on the couch!
“I always feel like my Cleo is in good hands with Beverly! I appreciate her communication, the pictures she sends, and that she gives the pups she watches plenty of time outside in her beautiful yard.”
