“Victoria was absolutely incredible with Bailey over the Christmas and New Year’s break. Bailey has high anxiety, so leaving him is never easy — but Victoria truly made him feel at home. From the moment I saw the updates, I could tell he was having the time of his life. She went above and beyond by spending quality time with him, throwing the frisbee, giving him fun snacks, and making sure he felt loved and comfortable. The photos she shared were so thoughtful and reassuring — it was clear he wasn’t just being watched, he was being genuinely cared for and spoiled. What stood out most was how naturally she created a calm, happy environment for a dog who normally struggles with anxiety. That alone speaks volumes about her patience, attentiveness, and love for animals. Bailey came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. Victoria is truly a gem, and I honestly feel she’s undervalued for the level of care she provides. I wouldn’t hesitate for a second to book with her again, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will treat their dog like family.”
“Sarah is amazing! She has taken Kaiser in twice now while we’ve been out of town and he has such a good time and well taken cared of. She consistently provides updates and pictures which is really nice too. I would highly recommend Sarah for watching your pup!”
“Our dogs had a great time with Grachel! We received updates with photos almost every day. They loved hanging out with Lucy and playing in the back yard. We are thankful to have someone we can trust take care of our dogs when we have to travel without them.”
“I am an extremely picky dog owner and won’t leave my fur baby with just anyone. My dog stayed with Robert for the weekend. I got text and pictures showing a happy baby. I will use Robert again to keep my boy.”
“Absolutely amazing!! She made sure our dog had the best care and followed everything to the T!!!! She was very flexible with us and worked around our schedules! We will be back again! And most of all our dog loved it there which means the entire world to us?”
“This was my first time using Rover, and Gabriella was amazing! She sent me updates and photos throughout the stay, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. My cats seemed very happy and comfortable at her place, and it was clear they were well taken care of. I would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable sitter.”
“Diana is a super care giver and really enjoys having a dog. We have a pug and she already was well familiar with the breed. She sent pictures each morning and evening, and always responded promptly. Her home is really clean, has fenced yard, and works from home, so I was glad my dog had lots of company. Thanks for caring for our Luke!”
“Our second time having our dog stay with them and they were great again! Always stayed in touch with us and sent us pictures. Also let us know if she was having any issues. Our dog always has a blast when she stays there. Would highly recommend booking them!”
“Aubrey was a wonderful caregiver for my little Pomeranian Nala. She kept me well updated with pictures and I could tell my pup was well loved. I knew from the meet and greet it was going to be a great fit. Very thankful and highly recommend her.”
About: Hi! I'm Charli, and I've been caring for animals in both a professional and personal capacity for several years. I've worked as a bather, groomer, daycare, and veterinary clinic professional for over 5 years, and have experience with all of the following animals: dogs (all sizes), cats, ferrets, guinea pigs, rats, fish, pigs, lizards, birds, & more! I most enjoy house sitting, dog walking, and daytime care, and I am able to travel to the further parts of the Tallahassee metro area upon request. For overnight animal guest needs, I have a home in the Astoria Park area of Tallahassee with a big fenced back yard and 5 animals of my own (2 cats, 2 dogs, and 1 ferret). All of our animals are great with other pets and love to meet new friends. If needed, we can also set up a room your pet can have all to themselves. Pet care is my everyday priority! My fiancée works full time from home, allowing me to devote my time to giving our pets and others' pets the care and attention they need (and deserve). I take pet care very seriously and am very attuned to animals' body language. As a veterinary worker, I have been trained to handle any situation in a calm and collected manner. Additionally, I like to ensure proper nutrition, adequate play time and potty breaks, and down time/quiet time when pets are feeling overwhelmed.
“Andrew was very attentive to our dogs over the holidays. He definitely made us feel at ease being away from our babies with daily photos and videos. Would leave our dogs with him again for sure”
About: I’m a Legal Assistant Monday through Friday but a full time animal lover 24/7! I have one dog, Daisy and two cats, Calypso and Chevy and 20 chickens. I also have experience with rabbits & hamsters. I worked at an animal hospital for 2 years. During that time, I acquired the skills of animal interaction with different breeds as well as technical skills. I have administered medications (oral & topical), administered vaccines, grooming including ear cleaning & much more. I successfully completed 2 semesters of a veterinary technician program. I would love to do a meet & greet before we agree to the sitting. I will not take on more than I can handle to make sure every pet gets the attention they deserve. I look forward to meeting you & your pet! I work full time Monday through Friday but am a homebody and typically at home every evening, and every weekend. I am currently grieving the loss of my dog of 11 and a half years, she lost a battle to pneumonia. I will make sure your pet gets much love and attention. I have a large fenced in yard with much room to play fetch or just let your dog run wild. I never leave any animal (even my own dog) outside by themselves. Coming to your home, I will make sure your pet is as comfy as can be without you there. I would love to go over your expectations for your pet care prior to the visit.
“Franceska & Daniel were awesome sitters! They were very good at communicating and Chop took a liking to them very quick. I was very happy with knowing Chop always had company and not just in a cage, that left me comfort to continue to book with them especially because they treated chop as if he were their own and was just as happy caring for him.”
“Judith was easy to work with. I loved how much attention she gave my 2 fur babies. When I picked them up they didn’t seem eager to go home which is a true sign they where treated well. I will definitely use her services again. I love the fact that she gives them plenty of potty breaks. Great person to work with and she keeps you inform on how your babies are doing by photos or video.”
“Julia did great with our senior dog Bo! She was responsive and sent pictures throughout the stay. Since she is a vet tech, Bo was in great hands during his stay. We will definitely book with her again.”
“Ayana was very communicative and patient with my hyperactive, anxious Pom. She asked questions whenever she needed more information on his needs (a majorly good sign that he was well-cared for), and she sent lots of pictures of him during his stay! When he came home with me, he seemed very happy and calmer than usual. I believe he fully enjoyed his stay, and I would recommend Ayana to anyone looking for the perfect sitter for their babies. ^v^”

“It was so reassuring to have Ayla taking care of my 3 kittie for a week. She was immediately accepted by the cats...a real validation of her service. Will definitely ask for her help again!”
About: I’ve always had a special place in my heart for cats. Growing up, I always had cats of my own, so I’m familiar with their different personalities, routines, and need for patience and gentle care. I’ve also spent time caring for stray cats by making sure they had food and kindness whenever I could, simply because I love animals. Whether your cat is playful, shy, or independent, I’ll respect their space, follow their routine, and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away.
About: I have 6 cats who are all happy and well taken care of. Since I do have cats at my house I would not accept in home sitting for cats but I would absolutely go to your house for check ins or stay at your home and home/pet sit.
About: I have over 11 years of hands-on experience loving and caring for cats of all ages, personalities, and medical needs. As a lifelong cat devotee who has shared an 11-year bond with my oldest fur baby, I know exactly how to read feline body language and make your cats feel safe, cozy, and thoroughly loved while you are away. I specialize in caring for the most vulnerable kitties, from tiny newborns to sweet special-needs seniors. I have a huge heart for neonatal care and have successfully bottle-fed many motherless kittens, including a fragile two-day-old newborn who needed round-the-clock love and attention. You can also rest easy knowing I am fully comfortable handling complex medical routines. I am experienced in giving precise insulin injections for diabetic cats, administering subcutaneous fluids for extra hydration, and gently delivering oral medications to anxious felines. I promise to provide tender care so your beloved cats can keep up with their health routines happily and comfortably!
“Jacqueline was absolutely amazing with my cat, Felix! He’s diabetic and with it being my first time going on vacation since his diagnosis, I was really anxious about leaving him but she handled everything perfectly. She was completely comfortable giving his insulin shots and followed all of his care instructions to a T. She sent me updates and photos, which really helped put my mind at ease while I was away. I would absolutely book Jacqueline again and highly recommend her to anyone.”
“Kelly did a fantastic job taking care of our 2 kitties. She made sure they had what they needed and paid extra attention to our kitty with slight stomach issues. She went above and beyond making sure things at the house were in good care as well. I highly recommend her services!”
“Andrew did a wonderful job caring for our cat while we were out of town! Andrew was extremely thorough and sent us great pictures and updates every day. We will definitely be using him again in the future!”
About: I’ve had cats and other animals my entire life and truly consider them part of the family. I have extensive experience caring for cats of all ages, breeds, and personalities—from playful kittens to independent adults and gentle seniors. I understand that cats thrive on routine, calm environments, and trust, and I take the time to let each cat feel safe and comfortable in my care. What sets me apart is my lifelong experience and genuine love for cats. I’m attentive to their individual needs, whether that means interactive play, litter box maintenance, administering medications, supporting senior cats, or simply providing quiet companionship on their terms. I’m very mindful of feline body language and stress signals, ensuring a low-stress, respectful approach at all times. Your cat’s comfort, safety, and well-being are my top priorities, and I care for every cat as if they were my own.

About: Hello! I am a teacher looking to love on animals and make some money to help pay for my wedding! I have cared for many kinds of animals/homes over the years and pride myself on building close bonds with dogs and owners alike! As a pet parent to 2 dogs and 3 cats, I know how important it is to be able to leave your fur babies with someone you can trust. My former teachers, neighbors, and family members have all entrusted me with their dearest pets with satisfaction guaranteed! I am a teacher with summers off so pet care is currently my full time job! I can arrange my schedule to include twice or three times daily care minimum. I am also experienced in working with medically fragile dogs and cats who may need extra care! I make sure that the animals not only have their basic needs met, but also give them plenty attention and love…if they want it! I also respect that each animal is unique and may want solace over snuggles. I take the time to bond with every animal and figure out what they actually need.

“I was traveling and needed to someone for my furbaby to stay while we were out and about. I felt very comfortable leaving my furbaby Clyde with Sarah. Nice home with fenced yard and very sweet pooch of her own. Would definitely book again.”
About: I grew up caring for all sorts of animals. I currently live on a farm and have worked with just about any animals you can think of. I have previously worked as a kennel tech at a boarding/training facility. Animals have my heart and I would love to care for your babies too! I work part time for a family business and make my own schedule. I am free majority of the time so I always have plenty of time to take care of your pets My dogs go out multiple times a day and exercise all of the time. We play fetch, run, jump, and all other sorts of exercises. I always allow my animals to get plenty of work indoors and outdoors to keep them happy and in shape.
“Dropped dog off, Nice neigh, nice house. Mathew was personable and friendly. I know my dog enjoyed their dogs and kids. Nice report card and pictures. Plan to use again.”
“Reymun was great! He was there for us when we had a last minute request and was so quick to communicate. He sent us updates during the day and some cute pictures of peaches spending time outside. We won’t hesistate to reach out to Reymun again or recommend him to others!”
“I have a senior dog with special needs. Kate asked intelligent appropriate questions to evaluate if she and Matthew would be a good fit to ensure my dog was not a risk to himself, their home, or other dogs, and how to best meet his needs by understanding his behaviors. Once we agreed to a trial day care day. I was impressed with the care provided and my dog was very comfortable and happy being there. Kate sent photos and updates and was quickly responsive to my questions. Their dogs and teens are good companions to the client dogs, the house is dog-friendly in comfort and safety with all non-chewable temptations stowed away, and their spacious fenced yard provides stimulation and exercise. With a dog-friendly pool, they are hitting the pet resort level for my Boykin! They have earned our trust and respect as dog care providers, and we are grateful to have found them!”
About: I have had dogs my entire life. We adopted Frankie in June 2025. He’s very dog friendly. Frankie is about 45 pounds. He is pretty energetic and can play rough so we’d do best with dogs his size or larger that match his energy and play style. We are a pretty active household. We like to spend time in the backyard and go for walks around the neighborhood or on the trails. I typically work from home so your dog won’t be alone for long. We have done a lot of training since getting Frankie. I’ve become very knowledgeable on training and dog behaviors. I am certainly no expert, but you can trust will we care for your fur baby as if they were our own. If there are behaviors or training you are working on, I will be happy to continue that during their stay. Contact me for any additional information! I primarily work from home so I have the flexibility to accommodate most needs. We tend to walk in the morning and evening with a midday potty break and play. You can trust I will follow any and all care instructions you provide for your dog. You know what’s best for them and I understand the importance of that. I will be sure to follow your typical routine so your dog is as comfortable as possible.
About: I’ve worked at a veterinary hospital and had dogs all my life! Your pup will have access to a huge fenced in yard on acreage and that’s only if they get tired of being loved on inside. My house is their house. Doggie doors throughout and full supervision while their minds wander and play. Safe loving environment until you re-unite. Happy for pick-ups and drop-offs as requested. I’m a stay at home wife sitting on fenced in acreage, amongst a wildlife sanctuary with 3 vaccinated fur-babies ready to make friends and show them around their playground. Plenty of soft places to lay after a big day of play. Access to water always - Doggie doors throughout and full supervision while in my care. Cuddles guaranteed and ready for extended paw pack members to enjoy this space. 3 friendly dogs who have been socialized all their lives, ready to show your pup around their home. Undivided supervision. Crate’s ready and available if they prefer separate sleeping / eating. Everything is tailored to what your pup requires. No request is too crazy, they are going to be treated and feel like just another family member. SPOILT
“Judith is one of the best sitter that i know. She cared for both of my puppies Khloe and Kobe and she provided extraordinary care. Even when Kobe was sick, she took time out of her schedule to sit with me for the duration of his visit. Not only was she a support to Kobe, she assisted me as being a new mom of two puppies. I will definitely be utilizing her service in the future.”

“Aylee was absolutely wonderful with Peaches! She accommodated us on very short notice, which we really appreciated, and she was incredibly communicative and friendly throughout the entire stay. We felt confident right away that Peaches was in great hands. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing she was being so well cared for. We would recommend Aylee to anyone and are already looking forward to bringing Peaches back in the future!”
About: I am 37 years old and have cared for pets over the years but done Rover/Professional dog sitting for roughly 5 and a half years now. I worked as a traveling salesman for a few years so I unfortunately wasn’t able to have a pet(it would’ve been more difficult) but I stayed at many airbnbs that had cats/dogs and I have many friends who have let me keep their pets for them over the years. I had a pet snake for about 7 years(Rosey Boa). I can care for any and all animals including fish and reptiles. I'm not afraid of Tarantulas and birds are ok too. I only work part-time so I am pretty available to help your pet. I am happy to take dogs on walks, dog park visits, and I am an avid hiker so if you think your dog would enjoy a nature walk I can bring plenty of water and show them the great outdoors. I do not have a fully fenced in yard. I live in an apartment complex but I live on an end unit and currently I do not have roommates so I am happy to have pets to keep me company. Theres plenty of places to walk the dogs around my complex and as long as they’ll get along and are housebroken I am able to host multiple pets. Cats are ok too. I love exotics like reptiles and tarantulas as well. Ferrets and other furry friends are also ok. I can do house sitting and I am open to long term stays in other people's homes. Please let me know if your pet has any special needs and I can accommodate that. I have experience with elderly dogs. I can easily take your dog for walks or to the dog park if that's allowed. I do keep multiple dogs sometimes but if your dog isn't friendly with other dogs I can easily make arrangements especially if it's multiple dogs. I like to take the dogs on frequent walks and sometimes I watch movies/TV with pets in the evening. Do go ahead and send me a request! What are you waiting for? I promise the only thing I will fail to do is disappoint you! I'm working part-time so I generally am available to keep your dog/pet company however if you have the kind of pet that can't go more than 3 hours or so being alone I cannot do that. Occasionally I have to leave the house and do errands. I have everything needed at my house for dogs. You would just have to bring food, leash/harness and treats. I have crates, bowls, toys and everything else needed. I don't have a fenced in yard but there are many areas where the dog can walk and play around here. I don't have any other dogs of my own currently.
“Ainla was amazing! She drove to my workplace and then dropped him off at his puppy kindergarten classes! She sent me pictures of his stay and kept me updated on his activities. Nico had a great time, came back home all ready for a nap. If you are looking for a great sitter, Ainla is the perfect choice! ”
“Byron came to the rescue last minute to watch my two pups—saved our vacation from needing to be cancelled last minute. When we got the dogs back at the end of the day, they were both so tired and happy—perfect day of daycare!! Will definitely be a repeat customer.”
“Diana put all my worries to rest. She took amazing care of my senior dog! Paris came back super relaxed. Diana provided updates and I could tell she was taking good care of my Paris :) Would 100% recommend and will definitely contact her again.”
About: I have been around dogs my entire life, growing up in a household with 3–5 dogs at a time. I have experience walking, feeding, playing with, and administering medication to dogs of all ages. I also care for my senior dog who has diabetes and am comfortable giving insulin injections. I frequently pet sit for friends and family as well! I understand that every pet has unique needs and always strive to provide safe, loving, and dependable care while treating every pet like they’re my own. I am currently a student with only two in-person classes, so I have a very flexible schedule. This gives me plenty of availability throughout the week to dedicate time and attention to pet care. I can easily fit walks, feedings, playtime, check-ins, and other care needs into my daily routine. My classes with be 11:30-2:30 Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. Then, 9:30-12:00 on Friday. After my classes I will be available for the rest of the day and I also can do mornings before my classes on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. I have no classes Monday! Let me know if you need me to stop by on Friday morning and I will see if that is possible for me! I live in an apartment, but I am able to provide frequent walks, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of attention throughout the day. My roommate has a friendly, calm cat, so I would always make sure any visiting pet is comfortable around cats before providing care in my home. I am also happy to care for pets in their own home, where I will closely follow their usual routine, feeding instructions, medication schedule, and any safety rules provided by the owner. Although I do not currently have a dog of my own, I have years of experience caring for my family’s dogs and would love the opportunity to help care for yours!!!
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 13 years old, so I’m very experienced with their needs and routines. I’m dependable, patient, and treat every dog like my own. Being a student athlete has taught me responsibility, consistency, and time management. I plan my days carefully, so I always have time for walks, feeding, playtime, and giving pets the attention they need. I treat every pet like my own and follow their regular routine with feeding, walks, and playtime. I can also create space for crates in my apartment so pets feel safe and comfortable.
About: A loving teacher and transplant from Minnesota, I have cared for pets of all shapes and sizes since I was small! I'd love to meet and care for your fur baby! New to Florida, I am now a full time Band teacher in Bristol. I'd love to care for your fur babies if our schedules match up! I am compassionate and caring for pets but don't leave a trail when I've been in someone's space! I grew up a girl scout and we were taught to leave a place cleaner than when you've found it!
About: I have had the blessing of caring for animals my entire life. I currently have 3 cats (Larry, Curly, and Moe). Having grown up in a pet friendly household, spending plenty of time on the family farm, and working as an apprentice groomer, I have a wide variety of personal and professional experience with animals of all sizes. (To name a few: Cats, dogs, domestic and wild birds, chickens, ponies, goats, calves, and reptiles.) I have experience caring for pets of all ages/stages as well, such as bottle-feeding kittens, or administering medication and subcutaneous fluids to elderly or special needs pets. I would be more than happy to care for your pets so that you can feel at ease while you are away from your furry family member(s). As a stay-at-home mom of one, I have a very flexible schedule that I build around the needs of my clients and their pets’ needs. In-home care for my clients and their pets focuses on maintaining a stable, familiar routine for your pet(s) while providing care services according to their needs. Whether this be ensuring your pet is fed and has plenty of water (or treats if allowed), to keeping them entertained with play and belly pets. As a guest in your home, I take extra care to respect boundaries and maintain cleanliness during my visits. My dog walking services are handled with awareness and attention to our surroundings to avoid potential risks such as vehicles or other aggressive dogs. Due to our climate, during warmer seasons, I pay particular attention to ensure your pup does not become overheated. Additionally, I supply my own waste bags to dispose of waste properly.

About: What sets me apart is the genuine love and care I have for animals. Ever since I was young, people have trusted me to look after their pets because they knew I’d treat them with patience, kindness, and attention. I’ve been an animal lover since I was about five years old, and caring for pets has always come naturally to me. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, so I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their family is away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, overnight stays, or simply keeping them company, I’ll care for your pet as if they were my own. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I work part-time with a flexible schedule, which allows me plenty of time to provide attentive, reliable care for your pets. Whether it’s daily walks, drop-in visits, playtime, or overnight stays, I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine to make sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and loved while you’re away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to keep them on their normal routine so they feel safe and comfortable. I’ll follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, potty breaks, medication if needed, and any other specific requests. I’ll also make sure your home is treated with respect and kept clean while you’re away. My goal is to provide loving, dependable care so both you and your pet have peace of mind.
About: As retirees, Steven and I have reached a point in our lives where we have the time and freedom to pursue something we truly love...caring for our furry friends! We have 2 great guys of our own, Mac and Zac! Our flexible schedules have afforded us plenty of time to devote to those 2, providing them with the absolute best loving and safe home environment. In fact, we think they think we retired just for them! They have never been happier. And we know your pet (s) will love being with us too. We absolutely hated when we had to choose to lodge our guys in an impersonal setting, such as a commercial kennel. So we decided to "pay it forward" and offer others a much better alternative for their pets. Not to mention, the peace of mind of knowing that your pets are in the best of care. So whether it's walks, playtime or just good company, we are here to help! Being retired affords us the opportunity to be home daily. Therefore, our services are available 7 days a week. We love being outdoors but more than anything, we love pets! We've found that dogs have a sense of routine. Changes in that routine can be over-stimulating. Therefore, the preferred setting for dogs is to be either in their own homes or in a more personal home-like setting. That's why our services are so vital. Theirs definitely NO PLACE LIKE HOME (or HOME-LIKE) . We offer spacious climate controlled accommodations which include: 1. 2 - Generous size sleeping suite with room to move around and relax comfortably. 2. Comfy and clean doggie beds or you can choose to bring your own. 3. Individual feeding station which includes filtrated water dispensers 4. Personal Care - Individualized care catering to dog's unique needs and preferences
“I’m so grateful for Kelly! She’s helped me out twice in a last-minute pinch and was incredibly reliable, responsive, and kind. Lucy was well cared for and happy, and I had total peace of mind. Highly recommend!”
About: I worked at Quincy Animal Hospital for five years. I have extensive experience caring for a variety of pets. I've bottle-fed kittens, the youngest being just two days old. I’ve also cared for senior dogs. I am comfortable administering medications as needed. I have experience managing dogs with a history of seizures and dealing with dogs affected by Cushing’s disease. Additionally, I am quite familiar with handling heartworm-positive dogs and dogs with diabetes. I take pride in communicating openly and clearly with pet owners. If I notice any abnormalities, I make sure to notify their owners. Pet care isn't just a side hustle for me; it's a daily part of my life, whether I'm caring for my own animals or others'. I always make sure to do a meet and greet before scheduling to confirm compatibility. One of my top priorities is providing peace of mind.
About: I love all animals and have experience with animals with minor medical needs (ie. pills, shots, creams, etc). I have 2 dogs and am a 4x foster with LCHS with three of them being medical foster puppies. I also have 6 cats who have all come from different situations and back rounds. I excel at following your pets schedule and needs. I commonly house sit for a 100+ lb dog and am more than willing to watch your dog at my home as long as they are good with other dogs and cats. I work a full time job M-F but am able to do lunchtime potty breaks. If you are interested in booking over weekdays it would be best that your fur baby can be alone for 4 hour increments. If your pet is people/pet friendly and you approve I am able to bring dogs to my office space. We do not have a fenced yard but live in a very walkable area. Our dogs are crate trained and we have no problem crating your fur baby or leaving them out per your preference.
About: I grew up on a farm where I learned about the care for many different animals. I’ve pet sat for others since I was 16 and have been raising my own fur babies for almost 7 years now. I’m gentle, attentive, and value being on time. I’ll treat your fur baby like my own family with professional belly rubs and lots of walks! I am currently in nursing school, so when I’m not in class or at clinicals, I’m available to care for your pet however I am needed any day of the week. I am capable of tailoring care to your pet’s needs. Whether that means needing to be crated, given medication, bathed, or fed a certain way, I will do it. I know how important it is to want to be stress free when leaving your pet in the care of someone else which is why I want to create a safe and trustworthy environment so that you don’t have to worry while away.
About: I am new to the business of dog walking and dog sitting, but I have been around dogs the majority of my life. Growing up my family had three dogs, and currently I have a seven year old rescue dog, named Arya, whom I had adopted in 2019. I have lived in Tallahassee for almost 8 years now, so I am very familiar with the area. Looking forward to this experience! While I used to be employed as a TA at FSU when I was a graduate student, I am currently unemployed and searching for research positions as a biologist. My days consist currently of job applications, so I hace a flexible schedule. My own dog is a mutt, mixed with pitbull and Rottweiler, so I know there is no such thing as "a bad breed." I will treat all dogs with the same love and care.
About: A loving teacher and transplant from Minnesota, I have cared for pets of all shapes and sizes since I was small! I'd love to meet and care for your fur baby! New to Florida, I am now a full time Band teacher in Bristol. I'd love to care for your fur babies if our schedules match up! I am compassionate and caring for pets but don't leave a trail when I've been in someone's space! I grew up a girl scout and we were taught to leave a place cleaner than when you've found it!
About: I grew up caring for all sorts of animals. I currently live on a farm and have worked with just about any animals you can think of. I have previously worked as a kennel tech at a boarding/training facility. Animals have my heart and I would love to care for your babies too! I work part time for a family business and make my own schedule. I am free majority of the time so I always have plenty of time to take care of your pets My dogs go out multiple times a day and exercise all of the time. We play fetch, run, jump, and all other sorts of exercises. I always allow my animals to get plenty of work indoors and outdoors to keep them happy and in shape.
About: I’ve had animals my entire life and truly consider them family. I currently have two Labrador Retrievers and have cared for pets of all breeds, sizes, and personalities over the years. As a big dog lover, I’m especially comfortable with large breeds, energetic pups, and strong walkers—but I also provide gentle, patient care for seniors and pets who need a little extra attention. What sets me apart is my lifelong hands-on experience and genuine love for animals. I understand pet behavior, routines, and the importance of consistency, exercise, and affection. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual needs, whether that’s puppy playtime and basic training reinforcement, medication administration, senior care, or simply providing companionship and reassurance while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and comfort are always my top priorities, and I care for every animal as if they were my own. I am currently working from home. I have ample time to fit your loved furry family member into my schedule. I am very flexible throughout the week and weekends. I provide attentive, personalized care based on each pet’s routine, needs, and personality. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in my client’s home, I focus on maintaining consistency so pets feel safe and comfortable. In my client’s home, I follow their established schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, litter box care, and medications. I make sure pets receive plenty of affection, exercise, and mental stimulation while keeping their environment clean and stress-free. I also provide regular updates, photos, and check-ins so owners feel confident and at ease while they’re away. When pets are in my home, they are treated like part of the family in a safe, loving environment. I ensure they get appropriate exercise, enrichment, rest, and supervision, while respecting any special instructions, dietary needs, or behavioral considerations. Above all, I care for every pet as if they were my own, prioritizing their safety, comfort, and happiness at all times.
About: I’ve been pet sitting for family for years now and figured it’s time to branch out the business. I live alone, have a large back yard and a nice park nearby my house. I would pet sit at times when I am available to and take on pets in a manner that makes logistical sense for me and my schedule. I check on them and look for any signs of obvious discomfort or distress. Make sure they have time to use the bathroom/clean litter box and water. Most animals will try and communicate to you what they need, so it’s good to follow the routines they have at home and interpret what they need and at what time.
About: I’ve been a dog and cat groomer for 4 years. I grew up on a farm taking care of all the animals from horses, cows, pigs, chickens , dogs , cats , turkeys etc. I’m very patient with animals who take more time to get to know new people who come into their lives and I love my senior animals who take a little longer on our walks :) I just moved to Florida from Arizona. This will be my full time job for now until I am able to save up to start my own mobile dog and cat business and hopefully be able to provide grooming services to all my lovely clients I am very reliable and flexible. I have always been the neighborhood help for pet care when my neighbors went on vacation. I’ve helped with feeding their farm animal and their indoor animals . I always follow the instructions giving to me and I always show up on time !
About: I have five cats and a dog of my own. I love exploring new trails and finding new places to walk. I also have experience administering medication to pets. I grew up with a dog that needed lots of medicine. I have plenty of experience with injections, pills, and liquids. I will treat your baby like my own. I truly miss the animals I watch when I inevitably have to leave. I hope you will trust me with your baby soon! I currently work part time and I am in nursing school. I can try to make any booking work with advance notice. Please reach out and we can make it work! I am very careful with making sure harnesses are on and safe. I make sure the water and food bowl are full and nothing is out that is dangerous.
About: I have taken care of dogs my whole life and worked with many shelters to provide assistance with animals. Training to become a vet at my college of Florida State University. Pet care fits into my daily routine all the time. Love putting animals first and don’t have much for the summer since all my classes are online. I respect the clients home and make sure whatever I touch or use I put back into the same place in which I found it. I would give clients animals respect and excitement to bring joy to being taken care of

“Victoria was absolutely incredible with Bailey over the Christmas and New Year’s break. Bailey has high anxiety, so leaving him is never easy — but Victoria truly made him feel at home. From the moment I saw the updates, I could tell he was having the time of his life. She went above and beyond by spending quality time with him, throwing the frisbee, giving him fun snacks, and making sure he felt loved and comfortable. The photos she shared were so thoughtful and reassuring — it was clear he wasn’t just being watched, he was being genuinely cared for and spoiled. What stood out most was how naturally she created a calm, happy environment for a dog who normally struggles with anxiety. That alone speaks volumes about her patience, attentiveness, and love for animals. Bailey came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. Victoria is truly a gem, and I honestly feel she’s undervalued for the level of care she provides. I wouldn’t hesitate for a second to book with her again, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will treat their dog like family.”
“Sarah is amazing! She has taken Kaiser in twice now while we’ve been out of town and he has such a good time and well taken cared of. She consistently provides updates and pictures which is really nice too. I would highly recommend Sarah for watching your pup!”
“Our dogs had a great time with Grachel! We received updates with photos almost every day. They loved hanging out with Lucy and playing in the back yard. We are thankful to have someone we can trust take care of our dogs when we have to travel without them.”
“I am an extremely picky dog owner and won’t leave my fur baby with just anyone. My dog stayed with Robert for the weekend. I got text and pictures showing a happy baby. I will use Robert again to keep my boy.”
“Absolutely amazing!! She made sure our dog had the best care and followed everything to the T!!!! She was very flexible with us and worked around our schedules! We will be back again! And most of all our dog loved it there which means the entire world to us?”
“This was my first time using Rover, and Gabriella was amazing! She sent me updates and photos throughout the stay, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. My cats seemed very happy and comfortable at her place, and it was clear they were well taken care of. I would definitely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable sitter.”
“Our second time having our dog stay with them and they were great again! Always stayed in touch with us and sent us pictures. Also let us know if she was having any issues. Our dog always has a blast when she stays there. Would highly recommend booking them!”
“Aubrey was a wonderful caregiver for my little Pomeranian Nala. She kept me well updated with pictures and I could tell my pup was well loved. I knew from the meet and greet it was going to be a great fit. Very thankful and highly recommend her.”
About: Hi! I'm Charli, and I've been caring for animals in both a professional and personal capacity for several years. I've worked as a bather, groomer, daycare, and veterinary clinic professional for over 5 years, and have experience with all of the following animals: dogs (all sizes), cats, ferrets, guinea pigs, rats, fish, pigs, lizards, birds, & more! I most enjoy house sitting, dog walking, and daytime care, and I am able to travel to the further parts of the Tallahassee metro area upon request. For overnight animal guest needs, I have a home in the Astoria Park area of Tallahassee with a big fenced back yard and 5 animals of my own (2 cats, 2 dogs, and 1 ferret). All of our animals are great with other pets and love to meet new friends. If needed, we can also set up a room your pet can have all to themselves. Pet care is my everyday priority! My fiancée works full time from home, allowing me to devote my time to giving our pets and others' pets the care and attention they need (and deserve). I take pet care very seriously and am very attuned to animals' body language. As a veterinary worker, I have been trained to handle any situation in a calm and collected manner. Additionally, I like to ensure proper nutrition, adequate play time and potty breaks, and down time/quiet time when pets are feeling overwhelmed.
“Andrew was very attentive to our dogs over the holidays. He definitely made us feel at ease being away from our babies with daily photos and videos. Would leave our dogs with him again for sure”
About: I’m a Legal Assistant Monday through Friday but a full time animal lover 24/7! I have one dog, Daisy and two cats, Calypso and Chevy and 20 chickens. I also have experience with rabbits & hamsters. I worked at an animal hospital for 2 years. During that time, I acquired the skills of animal interaction with different breeds as well as technical skills. I have administered medications (oral & topical), administered vaccines, grooming including ear cleaning & much more. I successfully completed 2 semesters of a veterinary technician program. I would love to do a meet & greet before we agree to the sitting. I will not take on more than I can handle to make sure every pet gets the attention they deserve. I look forward to meeting you & your pet! I work full time Monday through Friday but am a homebody and typically at home every evening, and every weekend. I am currently grieving the loss of my dog of 11 and a half years, she lost a battle to pneumonia. I will make sure your pet gets much love and attention. I have a large fenced in yard with much room to play fetch or just let your dog run wild. I never leave any animal (even my own dog) outside by themselves. Coming to your home, I will make sure your pet is as comfy as can be without you there. I would love to go over your expectations for your pet care prior to the visit.
“Franceska & Daniel were awesome sitters! They were very good at communicating and Chop took a liking to them very quick. I was very happy with knowing Chop always had company and not just in a cage, that left me comfort to continue to book with them especially because they treated chop as if he were their own and was just as happy caring for him.”
“Julia did great with our senior dog Bo! She was responsive and sent pictures throughout the stay. Since she is a vet tech, Bo was in great hands during his stay. We will definitely book with her again.”
“Ayana was very communicative and patient with my hyperactive, anxious Pom. She asked questions whenever she needed more information on his needs (a majorly good sign that he was well-cared for), and she sent lots of pictures of him during his stay! When he came home with me, he seemed very happy and calmer than usual. I believe he fully enjoyed his stay, and I would recommend Ayana to anyone looking for the perfect sitter for their babies. ^v^”
“Ainla took great care of our dog. She was very communicative during our stay, providing lots of pictures and videos. When we picked our dog up, we could tell that he had bonded with Ainla and that he had a fun time during his stay. We definitely recommend Ainla and would be happy to work with her again!”
