“Betsy was amazing with our dog, Bogey! She took such great care of him while we were away and kept us updated, which gave us total peace of mind. It’s clear she truly loves animals- Bogey was happy and well cared for. We’ll definitely be using her again! Thank you Betsy❤️”
“Five stars! My Charlie was sooo happy staying with Stephanie and Elizabeth!! For the first time ever he came back to us in great spirits. I will bring Charlie back whenever I go out of town. Highly recommend!”
“Michelle is wonderful. My dogs were very well cared for during their stay with her. She is a great communicator and a very caring sitter. My dogs and I look forward to benefiting from her generosity in the future.”
“Eve was so wonderful. She kept us updated with pictures throughout our pups’ stay with her. She took our pup on many walks & was very responsive. She treated our dog like it was her own & we appreciate that immensely!”
“I think Sammie will hope we go on vacation more often! He was so well taken care of- I felt he was treated like part of the family. Plus, he had the bonus of a playmate to spend his days with. It certainly made our time away more enjoyable, since we didn't worry about him. Thank you so much for the great attention and care. We will absolutely request you again!”
“Lisbeth took very good care of my little girl. She sent pictures and information about how she was doing. I had confidence in Lisbeth because she is a vet tech and would know what to do in an emergency. Kayla came back clean and happy…what more could you ask for? Thank you, Lisbeth. I will be using you again.”
“First time using Rover and Kym and Glen gave my dog a great home away from home. They regularly sent photos and promptly answered any concern that I had. I feel she the care she was given while there was top notch. Thanks to both Kym and Glen!”
“Sarah was everything you can ask for in a sitter! She was responsive, attentive, and so professional. My Daisy had a blast, she was played out and had full attention 24/7. My partner and I had total peace of mind on our trip, with constant pictures and updates. I will bring my dogs back for sure. 5 stars”
About: Your dog deserves more than a typical boarding experience—they deserve a calm, loving home where they feel safe, relaxed, and truly cared for. With over 22 years of hands-on experience, I provide a private, cage-free environment designed for comfort, attention, and peace of mind. I intentionally keep my care more personal and intimate, so each dog receives the time, affection, and supervision they deserve—something I felt was missing in many traditional facilities. Your dog will live as part of my home, not in kennels or behind closed doors. I’m with them 24/7, offering constant care, companionship, and a peaceful routine. My space is designed so dogs always feel included, even if brief separation is needed, using open, visible areas rather than isolation. I also have a large, securely fenced yard for safe outdoor play and relaxation. I am CPR certified and experienced in administering both oral and injectable medications, so you can feel completely confident in your dog’s health and safety. While you’re away, I provide regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your dog is not only safe—but genuinely happy, comfortable, and loved. My goal is simple: to give you the feeling that you never truly left your dog behind. Caring for dogs isn’t something I fit into my day—it is my day. I keep a small group so I can give each dog my full attention, carefully observing their behavior and well-being. This allows me to notice even subtle changes and respond quickly, keeping you informed and your dog safe, comfortable, and truly cared for at all times. In my home, dogs are never just watched—they’re truly cared for. I stay closely attuned to their needs, whether it’s noticing when they want to go outside, play in the yard, rest, or simply need comfort. I make sure each dog feels safe, happy, and understood, with plenty of love, attention, and a calm, secure environment throughout their stay.
“We could not be happier with the treatment Skipper received from Olga. She sent us daily pix and he looked so happy. When we picked him up he was clean and frisky. We will use Olga absolutely.”
“We LOVED how Danielle took care of our Josie. I think Josie loved her, too! We got several notes each day, with pics and an occasional video. It was clear that Josie was truly enjoying her stay. Huge thanks go to Danielle for taking on our 75 pound, energetic lab. High recommendations for her - but leave room on her calendar for future Josie visits.”
About: I provide attentive, loving care tailored to each pet’s personality and needs. I have experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages—from energetic puppies to senior pets who need a gentler pace, medication support, and extra comfort. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and focused on keeping pets safe, happy, and stress-free while you’re away. What sets me apart is my calm, compassionate approach and commitment to maintaining your pet’s routine. I build trust, follow instructions carefully, and communicate with regular updates and photos so you have complete peace of mind. Whether it’s playtime, walks, cuddles, or quiet companionship, I treat every pet like my own. I work from home, which allows me to be very flexible and present throughout the day. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, with plenty of time for walks, playtime, feeding, and companionship. I’m able to maintain your pet’s normal schedule and provide consistent attention, check-ins, and care throughout the day—not just mornings and evenings. Pets are family to me—my dog is my entire world. I care for every pet with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. I follow routines closely, keep a calm and safe environment, and provide constant supervision since I work from home. I’m attentive to each pet’s comfort and always share updates and photos so you can feel completely at ease.
“Ranae is amazing! I will definitely be a repeat client. She was very good at making sure our baby was comfortable and happy. She also checked in with me at least once per day, with photos, to let me know how things were going. I highly recommend her.”
“Karlee was very easy to work with and great at communicating. My pup felt comfortable with her right away and I could tell by her other pup that she was good with dogs and knew what he needed. She sent me pictures and videos at least once a day making me feel very secure. I will def book again!”
“Amanda and her kids did a great job watching our dog, Hans, and treated him like a part of their family. He loved cuddling with her daughter and husband. We plan on using them again soon.”
“Great communication skills. She was very with fast response to request. She sent pictures of her space to make sure it would work for our needs. She also sent an update and pictures of our boys while in her care.”
“Picked our bernadoodle up earlier today from her first visit/overnight stay with Hope and Scott. Video/photos and text exchanged. We couldn't be happier with the service they provided. Had a bad experience with a previous sitter who temporarily lost our dog. I know our Teddi is now safe and sound with Hope and Scotts care.”
“Tara is AMAZING! Our pup boarded with her full time for a week while we were out of town. Professional, caring, reliable, and communicative, just to name a few of her wonderful care giving qualities. Lots of pictures and communication every day. Even on short notice and on top of that our pup started going into a heat cycle while in her care. Tara kept us updated and made sure our pup was safe, loved, and cared for. Could not be happier with this experience and I highly recommend Tara!”

“Andie did great with our skiddish kitty cats over the holiday weekend. She made sure she saw them, tried to get them to warm up to her, and listened to instructions well in regard to feeding them / cleaning up their area. She was also delightful during our meet and greet and exhibited her vast knowledge by chatting about her history of cat care. Overall, we are pleased with Andie and highly recommend her for your feline family members! 😸😸”
“LeeAnn was absolutely wonderful with our little pup. We had her come do a couple drop in visits while we were at work and felt confident he was in good hands. We also loved the picture updates! We will definitely be booking LeeAnn again in the future! :)”
“Mckayla did an amazing job watching my cat, Panda! She sent lots of pictures, played with her, and gave clear updates that made me feel at ease while I was on my cruise. Thank you again!”
About: I’ve always had a dog in my life. From Great Danes, Labradors, and Havanese, I’ve trained all the ages from puppies to adults, and I’m very experienced in pet care. As I am a college student, not only am I very active but am very free to respond to not only pet needs but their owners as well! I am available most weekends and holidays to care for your pets but I can make accommodations based on what works the best for you. I am home for the summer from college and thus am extremely available to help out at anytime while also providing attentive care to your pets. I will care for your pets in their home according to your requirements. I will ensure the utmost care and safety for your fluffy animals.
“Michael was very helpful with my last minute cat sitting needs. He provided short but thorough updates each visit, and my cats definitely appreciated their playtime.”
About: I have had fur babies my whole life. I'm mature, dependable, trustworthy, and love pets. I have the time, patience, and energy to give your furry family members the dedicated attention they deserve. I will prioritize their safety, routine and happiness above all else. My fur baby is a cat and her name is Cassie.
“Alexandra did a fantastic job with our two cocker spaniels, including our energetic puppy. She spent quality time playing with them, took them outside, and made sure they got treats and attention. It’s clear she’s very comfortable handling both puppies and active adult dogs. Our 3 year old can be a handful, and she handled both of them with ease. We came home to two happy, well cared for pups. We’d definitely book her again!”
About: I’ve raised cats since I can literally remember. I grew up in the country, so there were a lot of barn cats around the property, and I remember just always being drawn to the cats. Nothing has changed as now I have 2 of my own little angel girls being spoiled and running my home. Cats have such unique personalities and their trust means SO much since they are not as easy to win over as dogs.
About: My tagline is how I see pets - they are family! I grew up having dogs, cats, bunnies, and fish. When I moved to Florida 5 years ago, I didn’t have any family so I decided to pick up pet sitting. I understand the importance of catering to each animal’s needs. If your pet is laid back and wants cuddles, we can do that. If your pet is energetic and needs to run, we can do that too! I look forward to meeting you and your furry fam 😊 I currently have a full time job M-F, 8-5 that is flexible with working from home. There are rare times where I need to go into the office, so I require that your pet is fine being alone for 4-8 hours. I also have a dog and cat who are friendly with other dogs and cats. My dog is 2 and loves to play. When boarding, I have ample space to set up your pet’s crate, bed etc in the living room or bedroom if they typically keep it there. I’m a big cuddler, so I am fine with them sleeping in the bed if that is what they are used to. I have a fully fenced in backyard, so rest assured your pets can run free safely. I also just purchased a kiddie pool for fun water days in the hot summer heat!
About: I have experience handling all sized dogs! I grew up with small dogs like bulldogs, terriers, pugs, etc until my mom rescued a pitbull who we have loved and has been the best dog! I have experience dog sitting anywhere from bulldogs to golden retrievers, golden doodles, and mastiff! I think what sets me apart from other sitters is my extensive experience with having lived with dogs my entire life. I am fully aware of their needs for exercise and love. I have been a dog lover since I can remember and it brings me joy to take care of them and to provide a warm and reliable environment for them. My schedule right now is pretty flexible and I would be willing to work around whatever schedule necessary for your dog to get the care it needs throughout the day! Thank you for considering me! I am pretty flexible and available during the week and weekends. I have two part time jobs that are flexible and allow for me to make my own schedule. I am unable to house dogs at my own place due to my renters agreement, however, I am beyond trustworthy with staying at other peoples homes and/or visiting for walks. I strive to keep the home clean to the degree that I found it and make sure the dog or cat feels safe in its home.
“Julie was fabulous. She dropped in to check on my kitty. Made sure she was good and fed. She also sent me pic. She even brought in our front door deliveries. Definitely recommend Julie.”
“Fantastic to work with and extremely compassionate with our furry family members!! Would use Anuradha anytime!! We loved how much our boys took to her immediately and how much she cares for dogs in general!! We were visiting on a vacation and Anuradha was extremely easy to work with and very flexible with arrangements for this drop in visit! Would rebook in a heartbeat!!”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Holmes Beach
“Anu is fantastic! Taz loves seeing her and playing with Izzy. She keeps us informed of how Taz is doing, sends a few pictures and we feel very comfortable leaving Taz with her. Taz has separation anxiety, but has displayed none of it when he goes with Anu. Very happy and have booked Anu several times in the coming weeks.”
“Thank you Betsy! Last minute booking and very accommodating for me. Betsy is lovely and highly recommend! We were late picking Zoey up due to traffic congestion. Suggest to newbies to ck traffic for timing. See you next week!”
“Fantastic dog care Very impressed with how Janette handles dogs It was our first time and Griffin was relaxed and peaceful when I picked him up, which is unusual using a first time sitter I highly recommend her, but not so much that I can’t find space to use her again!!! 5+ stars”
“Tasha had a great time with Michelle! She is a nervous girl but Michelle made sure she felt safe in a new environment. Tasha even met a few new doggy friends! Michelle communicated well prior to Tasha’s visit and throughout her stay. Her feedback certainly helped me feel at ease. This was my first time using Rover and Michelle and will certainly book again. Thanks Michelle for welcoming Tasha into your home”
“Our miniature dachshund "Monty" went to Olga for daycare a couple of times. He liked her very much and was well cared for by Olga and her family. Unfortunately we aren't able to book her anymore cause we just moved. We wish Olga and her family the very best.”
“I believe our boys have found their new best friend! We have a couple of rescues and one of them is high energy, high anxiety. We really needed someone who could help him become more comfortable around other dogs—needed lots of patience! Tara is an answer to a prayer! We had two meet and greets with her dog, and we just picked them up from their first day of daycare. They did great and we are so happy to recommend Tara!”

“Gina was amazing with my pup nova. Her home was so cozy and clean. She was so well taken care of and had plenty of toys to play with. Her doodles were also the best companion for my nova to play with. Definitely will book with again!”
“Charlie awas very responsive, and accommodating. His wife took Halo for a walk as soon as we arrived. Charlie sent pictures and updates on Halo. I would definitely recommend them.”

“SO MANY GOOD THINGS I COULD SAY!!! My boyfriend and I look at our two dogs, Hope (almost 2) and Zeus (3 months), like they are children. Our girl Hope can be an escape artist at times and is very active, so we have a collar for her with gps and tracking of her steps. With that being said, in the past I have not re-used some people off rover because Hope simply would not move the entire time!!! At Donnas, Hope and Zeus both ran and ran (after all I could tell). And had an absolute blast. Her yard is fenced in so no dog could get out, even our little lunatics. She knows so much about dogs I have never felt so confident with leaving our babies with someone before. Hope and Zeus will be back!! Truly a gem!”
About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life and currently have 3. I have experience with small and big dogs, ranging from a yorkie to a golden retriever. I have taken care of different family members’ dogs and love to play and snuggle with them! I work part time and my days vary so I will make my availability around my work hours. When I work, it is between 7-3:30 on the week days so I could stop in the morning before a shift and right after if it works for you. When I do not work, I have full availability and can coordinate with you how often I should see your pet! I’m very flexible with the wants of the client! Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priority! I make sure your pets are always supervised, kept in a safe and clean environment, and cared for according to their normal routine to help them feel comfortable. I will gladly send pictures throughout the day if you want updates and see your pets!
About: My hubby and I are home and pet sitters for folks on LBK and surrounding areas. We LOVE some pups to play/spend time with when sitting pet-friendly condos and are also able to come stay with your pet in your home. We will play inside and outside, go for walks, use their family/familiar commands, snacks, food, and naps. Will follow any needed structure requested; example: if you do not allow your dog on furniture, I will follow suit. I offer overnight stays as well as daytime care, a la cart services as needed. I am currently at home each day so have plenty of time to play with and care for pups. I would enjoy the companionship myself as well! We are home and pet sitters and travel often. Although we tend to travel to the same places (clients) each year, our boarding availability depends on the condo we are sitting at the time and it's pet rules. If I cannot board your pup in at my place, I can usually come to you or provide daily drop-ins.
“We left our puppy for the first time with Paul. We were put at ease as he sent us lots of pictures to see how her day was going. Your dog will have great care! We highly recommend him for your dog!”
About: I have taken care of dogs of all varieties since I was 10 years old. Family friends and neighbors have relied on me to walk play feed and pet sit their fur babies I am currently retired so I will have plenty of time to take care of and playing with your fur babies when ever you need me I currently live in a condo with my own 9 pound fur baby. We walk a mile each and every day on quiet back streets
About: Our furry friends aren’t just pets, they are family! I I grew up with dogs and have always loved watching our family and friends’ furry animals when they were away. I know every pet is different and has different needs and I am ready to take anything on. The days will be tailored to your pet and if your pet loves to have fun, we will have lots of fun! If they prefer to lounge around, we will take the day easy. I can’t wait to meet you and your best friend! I work from home so I am available all throughout the day to care for your pet! Your pet comes first for us, and they will not be left alone for more than 1-2 hrs if a grocery store run or errand is needed. Besides that though, we are always ready to have fun with our pup and can’t wait to have your furry friend join in on the fun! My husband and I have a 3 year old male English Mastiff named Tank! We have a small side yard for quick potty breaks, but we also have a lovely neighborhood to walk around in that has causeway access at the end that is pet friendly and a park just down the road that we frequent daily.
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with a natural connection to pets of all kinds. I grew up with Yorkies and cats, and today I share my home with two retired rescue greyhounds. I’ve also spent time around large breeds like English Mastiffs, so I’m confident handling dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I bring a calm, patient energy that helps pets feel safe and comfortable—whether they’re shy, senior, or full of puppy energy. I understand how important it is for your pet to feel at ease while you’re away, and I’m fully committed to creating that sense of home and routine for them. From administering medications to taking gentle walks or simply being a warm presence, I treat every pet as if they were my own. My love for animals started at a very young age—I even worked at a veterinary hospital at age 14 as a dog trainer, which gave me hands-on experience in caring for and understanding pets. That early passion has only grown stronger over the years. Pet care is now a natural part of my daily life. I start and end each day with walks and quality time with my two retired greyhounds, so caring for animals is woven into my routine. Whether it’s feeding, walking, giving medication, or simply offering comfort and companionship, I genuinely enjoy every part of it. I work from home and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets the attention, care, and consistency they need—whether it’s daily drop-ins, overnight stays, or weekend visits. Making animals feel loved and secure is something I take pride in, and it never feels like a task—it’s something I truly love. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, my goal is always the same: to make them feel safe, loved, and as comfortable as possible. I follow each pet’s routine closely—feeding schedules, walk times, play preferences, and any special needs like medication or extra quiet time. In your home, I’m respectful of your space and keep things tidy and consistent, so your pet feels secure while you’re away. I take the time to get to know their personality and provide calm companionship, play, and affection based on what they enjoy. In my home, pets are treated like family. I create a peaceful, pet-friendly environment with soft spaces to relax, lots of love, and a routine that helps reduce stress. Whether they need extra snuggles, slow-paced walks, or a little patience, I meet them where they are—physically and emotionally.
About: I grew up on a farm and have taken care of every farm animal from horses to chickens. My sister said I was like the Pied Piper. Animals would just follow me around. I have trained therapy dogs and one service dog. I love all animals and they love me. I often say I'd rather spend time with dogs than people. (I like people, too) I was a certified teacher for 38 years and just recently retired. Oh, kids like me, too. I'm currently retired and spend a great deal of my time at home. I teach music lessons one afternoon a week but other than that your dog will have lots of attention. I have a 1/4 acre fenced in yard with an electronic gate that is always locked and can only be opened with a remote gate opener. I live in a very shaded area of the historic part of a quiet neighborhood. . I have a neutered husky that loves dogs from 4 to 150 pounds.

About: Hi! My name is Mak, I’m 18 years old, and I’ve had dogs my entire life, so caring for them comes very naturally to me. I currently have two German Shepherds of my own, which has given me a lot of hands-on experience with energetic, intelligent, and high-maintenance dogs.

I care for pets by making sure they stay on their normal routine as much as possible so they feel comfortable and safe. In my home or a client’s home, I focus on feeding schedules, fresh water, walks, bathroom breaks, playtime, and giving them plenty of attention. I also understand how important it is to be patient, keep a clean environment, and make sure each pet feels relaxed and cared for like they’re my own.

About: Life long dog owner and lover! What sets me apart is the way I show up. I bring a calm, attentive presence to every walk and adjust to each dog’s energy, pace, and personality. I focus on structured, enriching walks rather than rushed potty breaks, giving dogs time to sniff, settle, and feel safe. I’m patient with puppies who are learning routines and especially attentive with senior dogs who need a slower pace and extra care. Clear communication and consistency matter to me, so you’ll always know how your dog did after each walk! My daily routine consists of caring for my elderly parents and working on my own software business. This leaves me with a pretty flexible schedule. I prioritize safety, consistency, and awareness on every walk. I use a secure hands-free safety leash attached to my person, along with properly fitted collars or harnesses that I double-check before heading out. During walks, I stay fully attentive and aware of the environment, proactively avoiding potential triggers, traffic, and unsafe situations. I adjust pace, route, and distance based on each dog’s age, energy level, and comfort, with extra care for puppies and senior dogs. I follow all owner instructions closely, never allow off-leash time, and always secure the home properly after each visit. You’ll receive a photo and update so you know exactly how your dog did.
About: Hey I’m Kenzie, I work at a vet clinic as a veterinary assistant and also in kennels taking care of dogs and cats. I’ve been working in animal care for over 5 years now I’ve worked at a doggy daycare/boarding facility and vet hospitals and I moved down to Florida recently from North Carolina. Currently taking care of your pets is my full time job so my schedule is always open and I’d love to get to know you and your fur babies! Walking the pets, giving them all the kisses and cuddles they want, making sure they have play time, giving them fresh water and food as well if needed.
About: I have had all kinds of dogs all my life. Currently we have a border collie, 2 rough collies and 3 basset hounds between our two homes!! I have raised 4 litters and have trained my dogs myself. My border collie travels the world with me and has gone half way around the world and back. Can't imagine my life without her... I know how difficult it is for a pet parent to leave their babies and I will do my best to really bond with your baby so that he or she are happy during your time apart. My Border Collie, Izzy, is also a wonderful, weet natured, gentle dog who will be great company and comfort for your fur babies! My condo is set up with a patio the dogs can use and they are of course welcome everywhere in the house. I have a great dog park a short drive away where I can walk and entertain them when they need it. The people and dogs that come there are great and it is a very friendly and fun place. I also have a pen set up for closer supervision if necessary. And of course I am home almost all the time.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats of every kind since I was 8. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets. I have owned a French bulldog. I’m currently not working, so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I’m available for boarding on weekends, and weekdays after 9.00 am. I have 2 wonderful children, 5y 7y. They love dogs and cats very much, we have always had a pet in our family. My family will do everything to make your pet feel like at home. He will be loved and cared for.
About: I currently work at a doggy daycare, and I have walked/sat for dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I understand dog behavior and can tell what they need! I currently work at a doggy daycare and spend most of my time with the pups there. When I am not there, I am available to take dogs on walks, do drop-ins, and house sit. Whenever I have free time, I am happy to take your dog for a walk or drop in for a visit! I focus on creating a safe, calm, and positive environment for every pet I care for, while also making sure they’re having a good time! During walks, I stay very alert to my surroundings, keep dogs on secure leashes, and pay close attention to their body language and behavior. I’ve worked with all kinds of dogs at a busy doggy daycare, so I’m comfortable handling different energy levels, personalities, and even the occasional stubborn walker. For drop-in visits, I stick to each pet’s normal routine so they feel comfortable and stress-free. That includes feeding, fresh water, cleaning up if needed, and giving them attention based on what they like, whether that’s playtime, belly rubs, or just hanging out. I try to make visits something they actually look forward to, not just a quick check-in. I also make sure everything is secure before I leave, doors, gates, and anything else that keeps them safe. On top of that, I keep communication open with owners by sending updates and photos, so you know your pet is not only safe, but also happy!!!
About: I have experience handling all sized dogs! I grew up with small dogs like bulldogs, terriers, pugs, etc until my mom rescued a pitbull who we have loved and has been the best dog! I have experience dog sitting anywhere from bulldogs to golden retrievers, golden doodles, and mastiff! I think what sets me apart from other sitters is my extensive experience with having lived with dogs my entire life. I am fully aware of their needs for exercise and love. I have been a dog lover since I can remember and it brings me joy to take care of them and to provide a warm and reliable environment for them. My schedule right now is pretty flexible and I would be willing to work around whatever schedule necessary for your dog to get the care it needs throughout the day! Thank you for considering me! I am pretty flexible and available during the week and weekends. I have two part time jobs that are flexible and allow for me to make my own schedule. I am unable to house dogs at my own place due to my renters agreement, however, I am beyond trustworthy with staying at other peoples homes and/or visiting for walks. I strive to keep the home clean to the degree that I found it and make sure the dog or cat feels safe in its home.

About: Your dog deserves more than a typical boarding experience—they deserve a calm, loving home where they feel safe, relaxed, and truly cared for. With over 22 years of hands-on experience, I provide a private, cage-free environment designed for comfort, attention, and peace of mind. I intentionally keep my care more personal and intimate, so each dog receives the time, affection, and supervision they deserve—something I felt was missing in many traditional facilities. Your dog will live as part of my home, not in kennels or behind closed doors. I’m with them 24/7, offering constant care, companionship, and a peaceful routine. My space is designed so dogs always feel included, even if brief separation is needed, using open, visible areas rather than isolation. I also have a large, securely fenced yard for safe outdoor play and relaxation. I am CPR certified and experienced in administering both oral and injectable medications, so you can feel completely confident in your dog’s health and safety. While you’re away, I provide regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your dog is not only safe—but genuinely happy, comfortable, and loved. My goal is simple: to give you the feeling that you never truly left your dog behind. Caring for dogs isn’t something I fit into my day—it is my day. I keep a small group so I can give each dog my full attention, carefully observing their behavior and well-being. This allows me to notice even subtle changes and respond quickly, keeping you informed and your dog safe, comfortable, and truly cared for at all times. In my home, dogs are never just watched—they’re truly cared for. I stay closely attuned to their needs, whether it’s noticing when they want to go outside, play in the yard, rest, or simply need comfort. I make sure each dog feels safe, happy, and understood, with plenty of love, attention, and a calm, secure environment throughout their stay.
“We LOVED how Danielle took care of our Josie. I think Josie loved her, too! We got several notes each day, with pics and an occasional video. It was clear that Josie was truly enjoying her stay. Huge thanks go to Danielle for taking on our 75 pound, energetic lab. High recommendations for her - but leave room on her calendar for future Josie visits.”

“Amanda and her kids did a great job watching our dog, Hans, and treated him like a part of their family. He loved cuddling with her daughter and husband. We plan on using them again soon.”
“Great communication skills. She was very with fast response to request. She sent pictures of her space to make sure it would work for our needs. She also sent an update and pictures of our boys while in her care.”
“Picked our bernadoodle up earlier today from her first visit/overnight stay with Hope and Scott. Video/photos and text exchanged. We couldn't be happier with the service they provided. Had a bad experience with a previous sitter who temporarily lost our dog. I know our Teddi is now safe and sound with Hope and Scotts care.”
“Tara is AMAZING! Our pup boarded with her full time for a week while we were out of town. Professional, caring, reliable, and communicative, just to name a few of her wonderful care giving qualities. Lots of pictures and communication every day. Even on short notice and on top of that our pup started going into a heat cycle while in her care. Tara kept us updated and made sure our pup was safe, loved, and cared for. Could not be happier with this experience and I highly recommend Tara!”
“Jessica is very caring. She went out of her way to make me feel comfortable leaving my two dogs with her. My dogs can’t talk :-), but I know that they grew comfortable in her care just by seeing them in pictures.”
“Excellent!! Charlie and Lisa were flexible and were easy to work with around our schedule. They took careful care of our 12-year-old Parson Russell Terrier. We highly recommend their services, and we will schedule their care for our next visit to the Bradenton area.”
“Stacia and her family were Extremely great with our Roxy. She was very informative and kept us updated constantly on Roxy, she sent lots of pics, her dogs got along great with ours. We felt very comfortable and safe with Roxy in her care. We will definitely be booking her in the future for our trips away.”
“So very happy to have found Audrey & Karson. Knowing that my anxious dogs are well taken care of is such a relief. I'm torn about giving them a good review because I want to keep them for myself. :)”
