Anas and Tate are the best! They took great care of Kaine and Lyuba like their own. We appreciate the cute pictures and videos to keep us posted. There's nothing like confidence and assurance that your dogs are safe, comfortable and loved when you're away from them and that's what Anas and Tate gave us. So thank you so very much. We truly appreciate you.

About: I’ve been a dog owner for 18+ years, with years of trusted experience from neighbors, friends, and family who rely on me for high-quality care. What sets me apart is my attention to detail and the level of care I provide. I take the time to understand your pet’s routine, personality, and specific needs—whether that’s maintaining structure, supporting anxious pets, or giving extra patience and attention. I’m calm, dependable, and highly attentive, ensuring your pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for at all times. I treat every home and pet with the utmost respect and professionalism. You can expect clear communication, regular updates, and peace of mind knowing your pet is in capable, trustworthy hands. I work from home, which allows me the flexibility to take breaks with my 4-legged companions. I have 2 dogs (Riley and Bingo). They're friendly muts who love company. We have a one acre fenced-in backyard with lots of room to roam and explore. I always supervise the dogs to make sure they take breaks from playing to rest and drink water.

Shalom did an amazing job watching my dog, Carti, while I was away for work. From the beginning, she was professional, communicative, and made me feel comfortable leaving him in her care. She sent regular updates and pictures throughout his stay, which gave me peace of mind and reassured me that he was having a great time. It was clear that she genuinely cared about Carti and treated him like one of her own. When I picked him up, he was happy, well cared for, and seemed to have thoroughly enjoyed his time with her. I would absolutely trust Shalom to watch Carti again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter. Thank you, Shalom!

They did such a wonderful job of taking care of my senior dog, Koda! I was so grateful that my dog was in good hands while I was away. Alistair navigated Koda’s anxiety with patience and ease, and Koda settled in better than I ever expected. Alistair sent consistent, regular updates with photos and videos of their outdoor adventures and prepared Koda some very delicious meals and snacks. Out of the many sitters I have encountered, Alistair stands out as someone who truly understands dogs and doesn’t hesitate to go the extra mile to love on and care for yours. ❤️ Their dog boarding is also part of a lovely sustainable homestead. I ordered a box with a variety of fresh fruits including longans, persimmons, coconut, blackberries, and jackfruit that I am very excited to try!🥥

Alejandra was amazing! She kept me updated with pictures and videos letting me know how my pups were doing! Even took them to a dog park that is in her complex which is a huge plus and gave them a bath afterwards cause they got a little dirty. When I picked the dogs up they were in great spirits and got along great with her dogs who are super well behaved. 10/10 reccomend and will be using her again this weekend!

About: I always had cats growing up and have been a dog sitter for friends/family the past eight years. I’ve had a pup of my own for four years now and can’t imagine my life without her. I treat animals like children and understand how important it is to take care of others’ pets to their standard and beyond! I am a full-time teacher leaving my availability more limited during the school year but I am extremely open during the summer (unless I’m already booked). I do need a bit of notice but am willing to work out a plan at the last minute if possible! House sitting/Drop-Ins: I will always treat your home and belongings with the utmost respect. I’m a firm believer in leaving the home as clean or even cleaner than when I entered it. I will ensure your fur baby’s daily routine is met with careful attention to detail and comfort! Boarding: I have a fenced in backyard and a fur baby of my own to help keep yours company (but let’s do a meet and greet to make sure they get along to ensure their safety)! We love going on walks around the neighborhood, playing fetch in the backyard, hanging out inside in the AC during the hotter months, and cuddling on the couch. Sally is my only dog (Beatles is my sister’s and stays with Sally during our joint vacations). Sally is crate trained for anxiety while alone, so as a safety measure, you are required to bring a crate for your dog when boarding. Dogs will only be crated when we aren’t home. My husband will also help out with your fur baby at times, so if you’d like to meet him too, just let me know! :)

She was very proactive about learning our dog’s habits, schedule, and temperament so that she could ensure to make things as comfortable for her as possible, while also providing a fun vacation. We loved getting updates with pictures and videos throughout her stay, and our dog seemed very happy. Would definitely board with Michelle again, and couldn’t recommend her more highly!

Gracie did a wonderful job watching our 7 cats. Some of the cats loved to see people and some of them are very shy. We could tell by the photos we got ever day that she was trying to entice the shy ones out by moving their food bowels closer to where they like to hide. She kept the cat dishes and litter boxes clean and tidy. In addition, she brough in the mail and took out the garbage while we were away. We would highly recommend Gracie to anyone looking for a pet sitter.

Emily is the best ever!! I was out of town for a week and she came every day to see my two cats and she did so much for me! She fed them, played with them and helped with the litter and washing their food bowls. I couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter. She texts back right away if you need her and she will give your pets tons of attention. She is awesome!!

Very grateful of having Samantha as pet sitter! I left for the Holidays and she took care of my baby while I was gone. So thankful because she said yes even though it was during Christmas season. I left happy and with peace of mind knowing that my baby was taken care of by her. Excellent communication, lots of pictures, updates and going for the extra mile by taking care of my plants also. 100% recommended. For sure I’ll keep contacting her to take care of my two babies eventually.

About: Someone in my family always had a cat, and I always wanted to be friends because I could never have one. I learned the hard way very young that cat trust is hard earned. Once I was old enough, cats in need of homes fell into my lap and they have taught me more patience than I ever expected, especially when handling introducing new cats to established homes. From fighting flying fur bunnies, to combating the endless litter boxes, cats after surgeries and on meds, I’ve had a lot of experience helping cats feel their most comfortable.

About: I moved up to Gainesville with the goal of going to vet school back in 2013. I attended UF and shortly after, started to work for an animal hospital. It was that very first hospital where my cat obsession blossomed. I strayed away from the idea of vet school and instead caught the shelter bug. My passion is to rescue cats and bring awareness to these magical creatures. I have since started my own nonprofit dedicated to that passion. I would love to make sure that while cat parents are away, their loved ones are well cared for. Call me a crazy cat lady but I wear that badge with pride 🐈‍⬛🐈🐾✨

As a business owner in the boarding and dog industry myself, trusting someone to stay in my home and care for my dogs was a huge deal for me — especially since our dogs have quite a few senior and special-care needs. Jonathan absolutely exceeded every expectation. We are definitely “those” pet owners with a million instructions wanting everything done just right, and he handled all of it with patience, kindness, and professionalism. His communication was incredible. Any time I reached out, he responded within minutes, which gave me so much peace of mind while we were away. It’s very rare to find people you genuinely trust with your home and your animals, but he made the entire experience stress-free. The dogs were well cared for, happy, and all of their special needs were accommodated without issue. Honestly, this experience changed things for us. For the first time, we actually feel like we can travel and enjoy vacations without worrying the entire time. We’re already planning our next trip knowing we have a person we can truly rely on. Highly, highly recommend Johnathan Absolute gems.

She provided lots of photos and updates in the Rover Card which helped put me at ease with my anxious kitty. My cat came out on the first day Lindsay stopped in which means she must have made her feel safe. :)

I have worked in a general practice for the last 13 years working with companion animals (cats and dogs) but I have grown up with birds, ferrets, fish, turtles and hamsters. I also have a degree in agriculture and have cared for livestock. I truly love all animals and will always take care of each individual pet as if they were my own. I have a team of veterinary professionals that I can reach out to if there was every animal emergency or guidance needed. My goal is to make sure that while the pet parent is away, their loved ones are well cared for! Pet care is a daily staple for me: my job is very flexible and I am able to move my job around to tend to the needs of the pets I am caring for. Whether that’s me coming home on a regular basis or stopping by your home to a similar routine of your own. My goal is to achieve the same routine you would have while you’re home to give your loved ones the stable routine they’re used too! In home: I have property where I can take the dogs out on long walks and can play with them with a great deal of space. They will always have access to water and will feed them according to their set schedules. I have space for crates if your pets do better crated while inside and if I’m away. They will be smothered with cuddles and treats if I’m able to. Clients Home: I will make sure to adhere to the routine you have already established at home, whether that’s long walks or playing in the backyard. Stick to the feeding schedule and ensure they are stress free while you’re away.

Although Puddin is 7 years old, this was her first time ever of being cared for in someone else’s home. We have always before had a house sitter in our absence. Nina went above and beyond expectations, picking up Puddin at my office once…and keeping her very late twice when I had after-work meetings. Her communication was excellent and Puddin was happy to see her each time. This was a good experience and I am grateful for how flexible and gracious Nina was for what was needed to make Puddin feel secure and my wife and I feel confident in Puddin’s care during a week when my wife needed to be away at a conference. Thank you, Nina!

About: Pet Care Experience I have several years of experience caring for both dogs and cats of all ages and temperaments. From playful puppies to senior pets who need extra patience and gentle attention, I provide reliable, safe, and loving care. I make sure each pet feels comfortable, happy, and well-cared for, just like they would at home. What Sets Me Apart I treat every pet as if they were my own, with compassion and consistency. I’m attentive to special needs—whether that’s administering medications, helping senior pets move comfortably, or giving puppies the training and structure they need. My focus is on building trust, creating a stress-free environment, and giving pet parents peace of mind while they’re away. I provide pet care on a part-time basis, mainly during weekends and weekday evenings. This schedule allows me to dedicate focused, quality time to each pet. Whether it’s evening walks, playtime, or weekend companionship, I make sure pets feel cared for, safe, and loved while their owners are away. I prioritize safety, trust, and a calm environment for every pet. In my home or yours, I ensure spaces are secure, comfortable, and pet-friendly. I supervise playtime, provide fresh water and proper nutrition, and follow any special instructions for each pet’s needs. My goal is to create a loving, stress-free environment where pets feel safe, happy, and cared for at all times.

Kimberly is amazing. She has gone above and beyond for us continually, and she always tries to accommodate us whenever she can. I have had issues with my schedule on a few occasions as of late, and she has been flexible and so helpful when I've had to make adjustments. We miss her when she is out of town! Our dogs, particularly, LOVE her. I wish I could give her more stars.

About: 🐾 Personalized Pet Care in a Calm Country Setting 🐾 First-time clients receive $20 off their first booking with promo code AMANDF33991 Hi! I'm Amanda, and pet care isn't just something I do—it's been my life's work for over 20 years. My background includes veterinary medicine, pet boarding, shelter and rescue work, pet sitting, and animal care at Walt Disney World's Best Friends Pet Care. I specialize in providing personalized care for senior pets, anxious pets, and those with medical needs who may not thrive in a traditional boarding environment. Your pet will stay in a quiet home setting with individualized attention, comfortable accommodations, and plenty of opportunities to relax, explore, and feel at home while you're away. 🐶 What I Offer • Boarding in a calm home environment • Drop-in visits for dogs, cats, and other pets • Medication administration • Senior pet care • Experience with medical and special-needs pets • Rural property with plenty of space to sniff and explore • Flexible scheduling • Midday potty breaks and regular supervision throughout the day 🐾 A Good Fit For • Senior dogs • Anxious or shy pets • Dogs who prefer a quieter environment • Pets with medical needs • Families looking for individualized care rather than large group boarding I grew up in a family-run Shar-Pei kennel and have spent more than two decades working with animals. My experience includes veterinary medicine, pet boarding, pet sitting, rescue work, shelter management, Disney's Best Friends Pet Care, and PetSmart Pet Hotel. I am comfortable caring for dogs, cats, birds, small mammals, livestock, and pets with significant medical or behavioral needs. To provide individualized care, I intentionally limit the number of boarding guests I accept at one time. However, multi-dog families are welcome; please message for updated availability.

About: ☀️ Summer Safety Advisory ☀️ Due to Florida’s extreme heat and humidity, dogs are at serious risk of heat exhaustion and heatstroke in as little as 10–15 minutes of exertion during peak sun hours. Because of this, all walks during late spring through early fall may be shortened or adjusted for safety and replaced with enrichment-based activities, shaded sniff time, or indoor play when appropriate. Your dog’s health and comfort always come first. 🐾 Pet Care Experience I provide thoughtful, enrichment-focused care that’s tailored to each pet’s individual needs, energy level, and comfort. My goal is not just to “get through” a visit, but to make sure your pet feels safe, understood, and well cared for while you’re away. I have a background in wildlife sanctuary rehabilitation and have served as an adoptions director, which means I’ve worked hands-on with animals of all temperaments, ages, and medical needs. I’m comfortable administering medications ( just not injections), managing multi-pet households, and supporting shy, anxious, senior, or special-needs pets. My approach to pet care is informed by ongoing education in dog behavior, body language, and force-free, reward-based training. I pay close attention to stress signals, pacing, and environment, and I adjust each visit accordingly. Whether your dog needs structured activity, calm companionship, or space to decompress, I aim to meet them where they are. 🦴 Bonus Enrichment Option I also manage one of Gainesville’s top-rated private Sniffspots, The Zoomie Zone, located in Midtown. This fully private, reservation-only yard is ideal for dogs who benefit from off-leash play without the pressure of public dog parks. Many clients choose to incorporate Sniffspot visits into walks or drop-ins as a way to provide safe zoomies, sniff-based enrichment, or low-distraction decompression time. If you’re interested in adding a Sniffspot visit to your booking, feel free to ask. Returning clients can also receive discount codes for independent bookings. Whether we’re heading out for a structured walk, enjoying shaded sniff time, or keeping things low-key indoors, I focus on providing calm, attentive, and reliable care you can trust. 🗓️ Schedule and Booking Process To make sure every booking is safe, smooth, and a good fit, I require a free 15 minute meet and greet for all new clients. This takes place at the location where care will happen and helps ensure your pet’s comfort, safety, and compatibility with my services. -Exceptions Cats and puppies under 5 months do not require a meet and greet -Returning clients can fast track bookings Please schedule your meet and greet at least 72 hours before your first requested booking so we have time to coordinate properly. After your initial meet and greet, you are all set for future bookings. If you move to a new home or apartment, you are welcome to schedule another meet and greet so I can learn the new setup. 🚶‍♀️ Dog Walks and Drop Ins I batch dog walks and cat drop in visits into efficient routes using flexible time windows. This allows me to reduce travel time while still providing thoughtful, attentive care. Dog care windows Standard visits typically occur between 11:30 AM and 2:00 PM Morning visits may begin as early as 8:00 AM Evening visits are available for dogs who need extra flexibility Cat care Preferred visit window is 11:30 AM to 2:00 PM If medications or strict timing are required, I adjust visits to meet those needs Dogs are typically prioritized earlier in the day due to restroom needs, but all pets receive the same level of care and attention. 🐾 Premium Boarding Boarding is a high end, in home service designed for clients who want a fully hands off experience. At this time, boarding is available only to dogs who already have an established walk or drop in routine with me. This helps ensure your dog is comfortable with my home, routine, and resident pets. While boarding with me, your dog will -Live in home as part of the household -Be the only boarding guest, receiving one on one attention -Receive daily enrichment and engagement -Enjoy supervised access to my private Sniffspot for play, sniffing, and decompression -Enrichment may include -Food puzzles such as West Paw Toppl meals -Nature walks or hikes in San Felasco, weather permitting -Field trips to quiet recreational fields when no other animals are present -Most dogs return home happy, fulfilled, and ready to nap. 🚨 Behavior Expectations and Safety The safety of my personal pets is a top priority. Dogs boarding with me must be comfortable around cats and respectful toward my personal dog. If a dog shows aggression toward any resident pets, boarding may be ended immediately. In these cases, care will be converted to drop in visits at your home for feeding, potty breaks, and companionship. 🚗 Premium Pick Up and Drop Off For added convenience, I offer a luxury pet transport add on. I can personally pick up and drop off your dog along my daily walking route No handoffs needed, simply leave your dog at home This service is priced to reflect the time, travel, and personalized care involved ⛔ Important Booking Policies -One free meet and greet is included for new clients -Additional meet ups should be booked as a walk or drop in to cover time and travel -All pets must be listed on your Rover profile prior to booking -You have 48 hours after the meet and greet to confirm your booking before the time slot may be released -House Sitting and Drop In services follow a 7 day cancellation policy If you have questions or special circumstances, I’m always happy to talk things through. In my home, pets and plants are family, and every animal in my care is treated with the same level of respect and attention. I understand that each pet has their own personality and needs. Some thrive on companionship, others prefer play, structure, or quiet encouragement. My goal is to be a steady, calm presence your pet can rely on while you’re away. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or hosting them for a field trip at The Zoomie Zone, I focus on creating a safe, enriching, and low stress environment that supports both physical and emotional wellbeing. During each visit, you’ll receive a detailed update through the Rover Card, including notes on meals, potty breaks, mood, and anything noteworthy from our time together. Occasionally, if your pet gives me a particularly great moment, I may also send a favorite edited photo directly. Unless something truly needs your attention, I won’t interrupt your vacation, work trip, or conference. I aim to be both your pet’s advocate and your peace of mind while you’re away. Safety is always my top priority for both your pet and myself. If a pet displays aggression, severe anxiety, or behavior that creates an unsafe situation, I will still ensure their basic needs are met, including food, water, and potty breaks. However, I may shorten a visit to avoid escalating stress. This policy is in place out of care and caution for everyone involved. 🛏️ Crate and Confinement Requirement for Boarding For boarding stays, dogs must be comfortable with crate use or confinement behind a baby gate or similar barrier. This is a non-negotiable requirement. At night and during times when dogs are not being actively supervised, boarding dogs are safely confined. This allows my personal pets appropriate rest and space, and ensures all dogs remain safe when I am asleep or briefly out of the house. Crates or gated areas are used as calm, neutral spaces rather than punishment. If your dog typically uses a crate, pen, or gated area at home, please let me know their routine so I can keep things as familiar and low stress as possible. If a dog is not currently comfortable with any form of safe confinement, boarding may not be the right fit at this time. I’m always happy to discuss alternatives or help determine whether a gradual transition would be appropriate.

About: I’ve been a dog owner for 18+ years, with years of trusted experience from neighbors, friends, and family who rely on me for high-quality care. What sets me apart is my attention to detail and the level of care I provide. I take the time to understand your pet’s routine, personality, and specific needs—whether that’s maintaining structure, supporting anxious pets, or giving extra patience and attention. I’m calm, dependable, and highly attentive, ensuring your pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for at all times. I treat every home and pet with the utmost respect and professionalism. You can expect clear communication, regular updates, and peace of mind knowing your pet is in capable, trustworthy hands. I work from home, which allows me the flexibility to take breaks with my 4-legged companions. I have 2 dogs (Riley and Bingo). They're friendly muts who love company. We have a one acre fenced-in backyard with lots of room to roam and explore. I always supervise the dogs to make sure they take breaks from playing to rest and drink water.

About: For as long as I can remember, there has always been animals in my house, but the last 13 years are where my real growth has happened for me as a pet parent and carer. In my own home, there’s always been a variety from dogs to hedgehogs to cats to lizards. I have often found myself as a haven for wayward creatures in need of respite. I have experience caring for, raising, and training puppies as well as caring for senior dogs. I work full time as a teacher but I am often around on the weekends and evenings and am happy and able to make pets a part of my routine! Any space I am in is always treated with the upmost respect— I don’t touch what isn’t mine, I don’t touch what I don’t need to. Integrity and honesty are paramount. If there is an issue with anything, I of course will be upfront about it, as that is what I would expect and want from anyone in my home. Trusting me to come into your home is a big deal, and I would never want to jeopardize your peace of mind.

About: I care very much for the well being of animals and want to make sure that the pets waiting for their owners feel safe with me. After work is usually when I will be able to, my work schedule is pretty random so I would work with the pet owners depending on how long they need me for. My backyard is nice and big enough to run around, but not secure enough for me to leave the pet alone back there. My front yard is nice too but needs the front gate fixed.

About: I share my home with two adorable cats of my own. I love animals of any kind, and have been lucky enough to have several throughout my life, including exotic animals. I can board cats only (due to my cat's preference), but I am happy to take your dog for a walk! I have experience with pets who have dietary limitations, are anxious or scared, and mature animals who need special care. Feel free to reach out if you have questions! I care for my own cats daily and they are home with me while I work. If I'm boarding your cat they will be treated with the same care and love. My home is safe and clean. I keep my cats indoors at all times. I have years of experience with cats and I am a proud cat lady😻

About: Hi🙂 Thanks for stopping by my page. Fun fact: If I could I would adopt and save as many dogs as I could fit in my home but unfortunately my husband said 2 is good for now😂 I have always felt passionate about animals especially pups. I love the idea of being able to turn my passion for caring for pups into a full time gig for myself, it’s truly a dream. I have over 10 years of experience with various of breeds and know how to care for them. I rescued Milo(dachshund beagle) my first baby back in 2014 and his sweet Sister, Layla (Rottweiler) back in 2016. They truly are the perfect pair and love having fur guests over. They are very social and playful with other pups. My main objective is to ensure your babies feel at home while away from their love ones and ensure to keep my clients at ease when booking with me. I know the importance of a clean and safe environment for our guest. I also have experience with the older pups and or the ones that require a strict schedule with medications and other medical needs. I’m proud to have multiple repeat clients and I appreciate the loyalty and trust that comes with boarding with a sitter. I have been boarding for over 6 years in the city and I’m excited to build my new clientele in the country here, back in my hometown 🤍 Feel free to reach out and request a meet and greet. I work from home and love being able to be home with my little ones and pups. It's so refreshing to meet clients and hang out with cute new pups on the daily basis. I'm a home body and love to be able to hangout in our large nice backyard. I have a nice fenced back yard that is perfect for pups to burn some energy and play. Both my dogs are very social and trained and love being able to keep the fur crew entertained and happy. We truly love hosting and ensuring our guest feel comfortable and safe.

About: Kim's Sit & Stay Inn No, that's not really the name...but it may as well be! FEES ARE NEGOTIABLE! PLEASE ASK IF YOU NEED!! I am happy to work with you because I would want the same for my dogs. Hey there! I'm a MASSIVE animal lover that graduated from the Zoo program at Santa Fe College, and I am currently working full time on Rover. I'm here for your last minute needs! Big pups, small pups, I love them all. My husband and daughter are very involved as well so your fur baby basically gains an extended family when they stay with us. <3 <3 <3 I have a big back yard, comfy couch, and a 17 year old teen who also loves animals- so your pup will never be lonely. I am available 24/7 via text message, and other apps. (Limited cell service though so calling is limited. ) I have 4 indoor cats as well, but they have their own space (bedroom) and prefer to hide out there if there are any 4 legged visitors. I live on 1 acre in Alachua, Florida and about half of that is fenced, so we have a fully fenced back yard with plenty of room for running and playing. I'm also close to the I-75 interstate. I take my job very seriously and understand how stressful it can be to have to leave your pets with a stranger. I always recommend a meet and greet first before booking with me, but sometimes things are last minute and that's okay too. Hope to hear from you soon, have a nice day! 👍🏻 I am home all day, as this is my primary income. My husband works during the day. I can give your pups the attention they need, or space if necessary. I have a large yard and can take them out as often as needed. I allow pets on my furniture, and all my other doors in the house stay shut at all times. All pets are fed separately from each other so there is no food aggression.

When I’m taking care of pets in a client’s home, I stick to whatever routine the owner has for feeding, walks, playtime, and medication. I always make sure they’ve got fresh water, clean bowls, and a comfy space. I clean up any messes, take care of the home while I’m there, and make sure their pet feels safe and relaxed. I also send photo or text updates so the owner knows how things are going.

About: I have been a veterinary technician/nurse for the past 13 years. My whole life is dedicated to animals and providing them compassionate care. I have worked in a general practice for the last 13 years working with companion animals (cats and dogs) but I have grown up with birds, ferrets, fish, turtles and hamsters. I also have a degree in agriculture and have cared for livestock. I truly love all animals and will always take care of each individual pet as if they were my own. I have a team of veterinary professionals that I can reach out to if there was every animal emergency or guidance needed. My goal is to make sure that while the pet parent is away, their loved ones are well cared for! Pet care is a daily staple for me: my job is very flexible and I am able to move my job around to tend to the needs of the pets I am caring for. Whether that’s me coming home on a regular basis or stopping by your home to a similar routine of your own. My goal is to achieve the same routine you would have while you’re home to give your loved ones the stable routine they’re used too! In home: I have property where I can take the dogs out on long walks and can play with them with a great deal of space. They will always have access to water and will feed them according to their set schedules. I have space for crates if your pets do better crated while inside and if I’m away. They will be smothered with cuddles and treats if I’m able to. Clients Home: I will make sure to adhere to the routine you have already established at home, whether that’s long walks or playing in the backyard. Stick to the feeding schedule and ensure they are stress free while you’re away.

About: I’m a student and lifelong animal lover with years of pet store experience. My home is a mini-zoo with a German Shepherd, two cats, and pet rats! I’ve also kept everything from snakes to saltwater aquariums, so I’m comfortable with any species. Im am currently focusing on taking care of your fur babies. I'm flexible. As long as your baby is animal friendly I can possibly board at my home. I don't usually do boarding at my home but possibly. I will do as instructed at your residence. Just need to let me know what they are used too.

Anas and Tate are the best! They took great care of Kaine and Lyuba like their own. We appreciate the cute pictures and videos to keep us posted. There's nothing like confidence and assurance that your dogs are safe, comfortable and loved when you're away from them and that's what Anas and Tate gave us. So thank you so very much. We truly appreciate you.

About: I’ve been a dog owner for 18+ years, with years of trusted experience from neighbors, friends, and family who rely on me for high-quality care. What sets me apart is my attention to detail and the level of care I provide. I take the time to understand your pet’s routine, personality, and specific needs—whether that’s maintaining structure, supporting anxious pets, or giving extra patience and attention. I’m calm, dependable, and highly attentive, ensuring your pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for at all times. I treat every home and pet with the utmost respect and professionalism. You can expect clear communication, regular updates, and peace of mind knowing your pet is in capable, trustworthy hands. I work from home, which allows me the flexibility to take breaks with my 4-legged companions. I have 2 dogs (Riley and Bingo). They're friendly muts who love company. We have a one acre fenced-in backyard with lots of room to roam and explore. I always supervise the dogs to make sure they take breaks from playing to rest and drink water.

Shalom did an amazing job watching my dog, Carti, while I was away for work. From the beginning, she was professional, communicative, and made me feel comfortable leaving him in her care. She sent regular updates and pictures throughout his stay, which gave me peace of mind and reassured me that he was having a great time. It was clear that she genuinely cared about Carti and treated him like one of her own. When I picked him up, he was happy, well cared for, and seemed to have thoroughly enjoyed his time with her. I would absolutely trust Shalom to watch Carti again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter. Thank you, Shalom!

They did such a wonderful job of taking care of my senior dog, Koda! I was so grateful that my dog was in good hands while I was away. Alistair navigated Koda’s anxiety with patience and ease, and Koda settled in better than I ever expected. Alistair sent consistent, regular updates with photos and videos of their outdoor adventures and prepared Koda some very delicious meals and snacks. Out of the many sitters I have encountered, Alistair stands out as someone who truly understands dogs and doesn’t hesitate to go the extra mile to love on and care for yours. ❤️ Their dog boarding is also part of a lovely sustainable homestead. I ordered a box with a variety of fresh fruits including longans, persimmons, coconut, blackberries, and jackfruit that I am very excited to try!🥥

Alejandra was amazing! She kept me updated with pictures and videos letting me know how my pups were doing! Even took them to a dog park that is in her complex which is a huge plus and gave them a bath afterwards cause they got a little dirty. When I picked the dogs up they were in great spirits and got along great with her dogs who are super well behaved. 10/10 reccomend and will be using her again this weekend!

About: I always had cats growing up and have been a dog sitter for friends/family the past eight years. I’ve had a pup of my own for four years now and can’t imagine my life without her. I treat animals like children and understand how important it is to take care of others’ pets to their standard and beyond! I am a full-time teacher leaving my availability more limited during the school year but I am extremely open during the summer (unless I’m already booked). I do need a bit of notice but am willing to work out a plan at the last minute if possible! House sitting/Drop-Ins: I will always treat your home and belongings with the utmost respect. I’m a firm believer in leaving the home as clean or even cleaner than when I entered it. I will ensure your fur baby’s daily routine is met with careful attention to detail and comfort! Boarding: I have a fenced in backyard and a fur baby of my own to help keep yours company (but let’s do a meet and greet to make sure they get along to ensure their safety)! We love going on walks around the neighborhood, playing fetch in the backyard, hanging out inside in the AC during the hotter months, and cuddling on the couch. Sally is my only dog (Beatles is my sister’s and stays with Sally during our joint vacations). Sally is crate trained for anxiety while alone, so as a safety measure, you are required to bring a crate for your dog when boarding. Dogs will only be crated when we aren’t home. My husband will also help out with your fur baby at times, so if you’d like to meet him too, just let me know! :)

Michelle is the best! We are incredibly particular about who we entrust with taking care of our precious fur baby, and we felt confident and safe with Michelle from the get-go. She was very proactive about learning our dog’s habits, schedule, and temperament so that she could ensure to make things as comfortable for her as possible, while also providing a fun vacation. We loved getting updates with pictures and videos throughout her stay, and our dog seemed very happy. Would definitely board with Michelle again, and couldn’t recommend her more highly!

Christine and her family were wonderful to my boy Lucky. They were flexible, friendly and didn't mind at all when my plans changed and I needed to reschedule. Lucky had an accident and Christine and her husband were nice enough to give him and bath and brush to freshen him up. He came back happy and tired. Will definitely be using the Wallace family again!

Mohini is such a great sitter! She booked me even though it was last minute, and I got pictures/videos and updates everyday. Finnegan can be shy and was sad when I left him but she took the time to comfort him and I can tell he connected with her. On top of a beautiful and spacious home, she was really educated on doggie care. What I didn’t expect was Mohini to make me a handmade keychain of a dog that I will cherish forever! Thank you so so much!!!
