“I recently moved to Jacksonville and interviewed 4 sitters before I found Tannia and Chris. As soon as I met them I knew they were the ones! Beautiful people, beautiful home, beautiful experience. My Frenchie is 6 years old and this was the first time I left her with ‘strangers’. My little Frida is very attached to me- but I had to pry her out of their house to bring her home after my trip. I found my people to watch my pup whenever I go out of town. Tannia and Chris were ‘strangers’ for all of about 10 seconds. They are now Frida’s home away from home- where I know I am leaving her with two caring and thoughtful dog lovers. 💕”
“Skylar really enjoyed her time with Kaitlyn and Andrew. She was well cared for and I received frequent picture updates. I will definitely use them again when the need arises. Thank you so much.”
“Catherine and her home were a great fit to watch my Stella! She was very communicative and made her feel right at home. We would absolutely use Catherine to board again!”
“Anna and Nick were WONDERFUL! We felt so at ease our entire trip and I never once had to ask for updates because Anna was on it - she sent me photos and videos everyday. Our dog had such a great time and loved playing with her new best friends Chewey and Libby. Will absolutely rebook in the future.”
“Maria and Ryan were absolutely amazing!! This was the best experience I’ve had with Rover. They took such good care of my dog Boba. He looked very happy and relaxed when I picked him up. Maria even put a cute bandana on him 😄 We got regular updates and videos of boba which put our minds at ease that he was well taken care of. We will definitely use Maria & Ryan again. Thank you!!”
“Fantastic couple! Made our trip so much more relaxing knowing Cherry was in great hands! They sent so many awesome pics and messages throughout her stay that let me know we’d made the best choice. We will definitely rebook with them!”
“We enjoyed meeting Yekaterina. She took good care of our Rooney and kept us updated with pictures. We will definitely be coming to see her again!”
“They were so sweet and took great care of our little guy! Sent pictures and updates of walks -will definitely be our go to sitters if they are available! Thank you so much :)”
“My pup, Goose, is a rescue that I got from a hoarding situation back in November 2021. I think in the time I've had him, I've left him twice with people who I trusted but didn't live in the home. This is the first time I've ever had to leave him with someone he's never met so I was super nervous. Patti did not disappoint at all! She sent me frequent updates on how Goose was adjusting and continued to send pictures all weekend. We definitely will be using Patti again!”
“Carolyn was the perfect sitter to watch our little Rocky! This was the first time I left my precious little chihuahua with anyone, so I was especially nervous, since Rocky is a one owner lap dog. Carolyn set my mind at ease and sent me updates with pictures during Rocky’s 3 day stay with her. I heartily recommend this amazing soul who will care for your pet as if her life depended on it. Thank you, Carolyn, for making my Rocky feel so comfortable away from home.”
“Bekah is so awesome! She is very welcoming and loving to our little Rooney. She keeps us updated along the way and shows us just how much fun Rooney, Rowdy and Felix are having. You're in good hands with Bekah and she is a really nice person!!!”
“Maria always takes the best care of my pup and sends lots of videos! My pup just stayed with her for over a week, which can be hard to be away from them for so long, but we know he is so happy and well cared for with her!”
“Betsy came back very happy and tired. Usually when I leave her with people she comes back with lots of energy. They truly take the take with the dog and exercise. Also respond very quickly with pictures and updates. Highly recommend”
“So glad we found JoAnn. Have lived here 6 years and never traveled anywhere without our dog Cookie, which limits the places we could go. Now, thanks to JoAnn, we have more freedom AND peace of mind. Her home is dog heaven, and she’s a lovely person. We’ll be back!”
“This was our first time to use a petsitter for our dog and our Rosie was not only taken care of, but also pampered and spoiled by our petsitter Debbie, she kept us informed and updated with photos and text la that gave us a piece of mind, I will absolutely use this service again. TY!”
“Wendy is an exceptional sitter!! She took suvh great care of my baby. She sent pics daily and kept me updated and my baby busy. Will definitely use her again. Thank you Wendy!”
“Christa was wonderful! She was very responsive to texts and sent a lot of photos and videos. We felt comfortable leaving our puppy with her and are so glad we did. We highly recommend her!”

“Baylee is absolutely amazing. She took care of my four kitties over Thanksgiving, including two senior cats who need extra care and patience. She was so gentle and sweet with each of them and kept everything in my home neat and clean. I really appreciated how often she updated me with photos and videos. It gave me such peace of mind to see them relaxed and happy while I was away. I am so happy and thankful for Baylee and will definitely book her again. I highly recommend her if you are looking for a true five star pet sitter.”
About: As a proud cat parent to two felines whom I’ve raised and loved from tiny kittens to happy, healthy adults, I know firsthand what it takes to provide exceptional cat care. I understand that cats aren't just 'easy pets', they are unique individuals with distinct personalities, boundaries, and routines. I am highly experienced in recognizing subtle cat body language, maintaining pristine litter boxes, and strictly following feeding schedules
“Gabbi is the best! She stayed at my place with my dog-like cat for a little over a week. She sent me daily updates and pictures which warmed my heart. It’s hard leaving our fur babies but with Gabbi know they are in great hands.”
“Sharon was excellent with our 5 month old golden retriever!! She followed all instructions I provided, and I could tell how happy our puppy was to spend time with her! Highly recommend Sharon!”
“Parker-Lynn did drop in visits on our cats while we were on vacation for two weeks. I have to admit that I was nervous about leaving my babies, but Parker-Lynn did such a great job at checking in when she did her visits, sending pictures and updates each time. It definitely took a huge weight off our shoulders to know that our kitties were being well cared for while we were gone, and we plan to hire Parker-Lynn for next time too!!”
“Olivia was great with my cat while I was away! Very communicative, reliable, and always sent photos and updates during her visits. I really felt like he was in good hands and would highly recommend her!”

“Tannia and Chris went above and beyond my expectations when caring for my senior girl. They are very accommodating and their knowledge of animals is impressive. They took alot of time listening to my concerns/instructions and followed them carefully. Thank you guys for loving on and caring for my baby.”
About: Hi, we’re Anna and Nick, your neighbors and fellow dog lovers. We have a goldendoodle and three dachshund who love having friends over. They’re all very social and sweet with dogs of all sizes and energy levels. Please check out their pet profiles for more info. We offer daycare and overnight stays at our house. Nick and I both work from home and have a flex scheduled. We have plenty of time to give the pups lots of love and attention throughout the day. No kids. We give lots of attention and outside time. Our home is a calm, dog-focused environment. We have a large fenced yard and are outside a lot. We have a pool. While our dogs don’t swim, many of our friends’ dogs love a dip. We don’t mind! We love it. And we won’t leave them unattended.
“Catherine was a great sitter for Bear! Her dog Maddie was a sweetheart who helped to tire Bear out and be a great companion. She was extremely responsive to messages and sent lots of photos of Bear having a great time at her house. Would definitely have her watch Bear again.”
“Carolyn took great care of my Dustin boy!! She kept me updated with photos and messages throughout the day! Will definitely be using her again to watch my sweet boy. Thank you!”
“Lana was responsive and warm from the start, took care of my baby at the last minute for us and it went great. First time using a dog sitter but we will be repeat customers.”
About: I grew up in a home full of animals and loved every second of it. Being surrounded by dogs was such a special part of my childhood and helped shape my love for caring for them. Today, I have a 3 year old dachshund of my own who has been one of the biggest blessings in my life. As a pet parent, I understand how important it is to know your baby is in safe and loving hands when you’re away. That’s why, on my days off, I enjoy providing that same peace of mind to other pet owners. I treat every pet as if they were my own, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Whether it’s playtime, cuddles, walks, or simply keeping your pet company, I’ll make sure they receive the attention and care they deserve. Caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life, and I genuinely enjoy incorporating pet care into my weekly routine. They bring a special kind of happiness and comfort, and I love having the opportunity to care for them when their owners need a helping hand. have a home with a fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely play, explore, and get plenty of exercise throughout the day. Inside, pets are treated like part of the family and are welcome to relax, play, and roam comfortably in a safe, supervised environment. I understand that every dog is different, so I do my best to maintain the schedule and care they are accustomed to at home.
“Patty was fantastic in caring for my miniature daschund Richard. Patty knows the breed well and was very quick in understanding Richards quirks. She was patient and kind with him and I could see that he loved spending time with her because he would run to her door in the morning to see her. I could not have been happier with Patty, she is amazing. Thank you Patty.”
“Cookie had the best time with Maria! She was really nice and made us all feel very confident about leaving him in her house (which is super nice and clean and super pet -friendly) She sent me pictures and videos of Cookie frequently and sent me updates all the time and I could see from the videos that he felt right at home.We can’t wait to book house sitting and boarding again 😊”
“JoAnn is the absolute best! I’m a nurse who works long hours and she’s always accommodating of my schedule. My dog Meeko loves going to daycare and I never have to worry when he’s there. She also painted a beautiful portrait of my Meeko that I am so grateful for. I couldn’t recommend her more!”
About: I’ve been caring for animals for about 10 years and grew up around both dogs and cats, so caring for animals has always been a big part of my life. I have experience with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I also have a one year old dog of my own, so I’m very familiar with daily routines, exercise needs, playtime, and providing attentive care and updates. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine since I’m home most of the day and already structure my schedule around caring for my own dog. I’m able to provide frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, feeding, and attention throughout the day rather than leaving pets alone for long periods. I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to accommodate different routines and give pets consistent care, supervision, and companionship. I live in a pet-friendly apartment community with access to a dog park that I take my own pup to daily for exercise and play. Because my yard is unfenced, all outdoor time and walks are closely supervised and dogs are always kept on leash for safety. I’m home throughout the day, which allows me to provide frequent potty breaks, walks, attention, and companionship based on each dog’s individual routine and needs. I create a calm, clean, and loving environment where pets feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away.
“Ryan & Maria were super lovely, calm, caring, gracious. We felt really good leaving Bella with them for the afternoon. They are conveniently located close to Mayo, and it was a gift to be able to drop Bella off, get to our appointment at Mayo and then pick her back up … knowing she was in quiet space with caring people. They also send plenty of photos and videos which were nice to receive too. Highly recommend this wonderful couple for your pet’s well-being.”
“Suilen helped us out last minute and was EXCEPTIONAL. I chose her because of all her good reviews and was not disappointed. Impressive customer service.”
“Our dog Jam had a great evening with Diane and Greg. They sent pictures of our dogs playing and made the evening away great for us, We highly recommend them!!”
“Yekaterina and her family are amazing! They watched my 8 week old puppy whitney for several days and treated her like family. She sent videos and cute pictures throughout the day and the kids played with my pup and were so good to her. My puppy loved it at their house! 🩷💕”
About: Hi! I’m a reliable and caring pet owner for over 30 years. My family always had cats and dogs when I was growing up and now I have 2 cats and a dog of my own. Aside from that I was always the go to dog sitter for my family and friends during high school and college. I am reliable, and respectful of not just the animals, but of people’s homes and routines as well. I will always put your pet’s needs first! Having 3 pets of my own, I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust with your animals. Whether you need someone for a short stay, long stay, or a quick drop in visit for playtime and a walk, I love making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and happy while their owner is away. I always make sure to follow instructions, give plenty of attention, and keep owners updated so you can have peace of mind while you're gone. I’m happy to send photos and updates so you know your pet is doing great. I’m comfortable caring for different types of dogs and personalities, whether they’re energetic and love to play or more relaxed and just want some company. My goal is always to make sure your pet feels loved and cared for just like they would at home. I’d love the chance to meet you and your pet and help make your time away stress-free!

They continuously kept me up to date with pictures and videos. I feel so grateful to have found them and I know Luke does too. We will continue to use their services in the future. Thank you both for your kindness! I feel incredibly lucky to have found you!" - Dawn F.

Your pup is welcome on the couch, my queen bed, the numerous dog beds scattered around the house or wherever they're most comfortable. Feedings, medications, and playtime all happen on your pup's usual schedule.

“Dawn always answers so quickly and is very informative and helpful after every visit, even giving love to my kitties on a dog visit & filling up the water bowl after a walk :) much appreciated”
“Elaine is amazing with our Coco! We are so thrilled to have found her. She goes above and beyond on rainy days with our girl making sure her paws are clean when she comes inside. And that she has her rain coat on.”
“I really appreciate their flexibility. Whether it is a Sunday morning, or a weekday evening they have been there for my furry little frenchie friend.”
About: I have grown up with multiple dogs for as long as I remember, and have also watched neighbors dogs since the age of 11. I have taken care of pets overnight for multiple days including walks, feeding, and playing/entertaining. I’m currently working part time during evenings, so I have morning availability until 3pm daily and evening availability depending on my work schedule! My Sundays are completely available. Any inquiries just send me a message! I am able to keep your pets company, take them on walks, feed them, play with them, and crate them as well if needed. Anything more that you may need just ask! I have experience administering medicines from my own pets.
About: Over the years, I have taken care of dogs and cats for friends and family in their home, as well as my own. I am reliable, dependable and will stick to your desired routine. Your pets become our family while they are in our care. I currently work two days in the office and three days from home. I have the flexibility to come to your house or mine to feed and walk your pets on days I am in the office. I am very active and go for a minimum of two walks daily. I also run daily if that is part of your dog’s routine. Playtime and sleep routines will be observed. I will be sure to maintain your routine and will keep your house clean and orderly.
“Sharon was great! This was our first time using Rover and I was a bit nervous, but she was so communicative and took good care of our pup while we traveled. We’ll definitely use Rover and request her again.”
About: I’ve taken care of my family dog since I was 15! I fully house trained her since she was a puppy and taught her all her tricks (the classic like sit, stay/come, speak, rollover). I have over 10 years experience with small dogs, and a few years of combined experience with larger dogs such as labs, pit-mixes, boxers, and even one giant Akita! I adopted a cat that I had the pleasure of caring for a few years- love snuggles or leaving her be when needed. I am a business owner and create my own schedule. I can make myself available early morning, late night, or any time in between with just a short bit of notice. I have experience and am capable in keeping large dogs apart when needed if you prefer your pup not interact with others while out and about. When working with ACPS, dogs are kept 10ft away from all other animals when outside the shelter. When working with reactive dogs, I do my best to take walking during less busy times around the neighborhood. My precious cat did not enjoy dogs as much as I do, so I know how to keep a calm house when everyone may not be so friendly!
About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and have always had a special love for them. I grew up with both horses and dogs, so caring for animals has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. I currently have two Pit Lab mixes of my own who are truly my children! I also regularly help care for my sister’s dog when needed. I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust with your pets, and I’ll treat every animal I care for with the same love, patience, and attention that I give my own. I work from home, which gives me a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to care for your pets throughout the day. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, playtime, and lots of attention. Living at Jax Beach, I’m always out walking my own dogs and would love to bring your pup along for some fresh air and exercise! I’m comfortable caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. I have two dogs of my own, so I understand how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pets. I’ll always follow your pet’s normal routine and any instructions you provide, while making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away.
About: I grew up surrounded by animals on my Granny’s farm, so caring for pets has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. In my own home, we had three dogs and four cats, and animals were never just pets, they were family. My mom was a veterinary technician for 15 years, and she regularly brought home injured or recovering animals that needed rehabilitation. Through that experience, I learned how to safely handle pets in all kinds of situations and environments. She passed down extensive hands-on knowledge to me, including how to recognize warning signs, respond calmly in emergencies, and administer medications. I’ve even assisted with IV fluids for a dog when needed. Because of this background, I’m comfortable caring for pets who may need extra patience, medical attention, or routine based care. I bring more experience than the average sitter and take your pet’s safety, comfort, and while still giving them plenty of love, attention, and reassurance I have an open and flexible schedule, so I’m able to give pets plenty of time, attention, and consistency throughout the day. I’m available for early mornings, mid-day visits, evenings, and weekends. I provide care exclusively in my clients’ homes so pets can stay in the environment where they feel safest and most comfortable. I follow your pet’s established routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, and any special care instructions. I’m attentive to behavior changes, health needs, and comfort levels, especially for pets who may be anxious, senior, or require medical care. I keep the home clean and secure, ensure doors and gates are properly locked, and respect household rules at all times. I prioritize communication and send regular updates and photos so you can feel confident knowing your pet is well cared for while you’re away
About: I have experience pet-sitting for coworkers, often for weekends or even during their full week-long vacations. I do not own a pet at this time in my life because I have a small apartment and an inconsistent schedule, which is why I like to interact with others' dogs in my spare time, and help other dog-owners in this way. I have consistently had dogs in my family since I was about 8 or 9 years old so I am very familiar with the patience,love, and energy needed to take care of a dog in an apropriate manner.
About: I'm the proud mama to 3 mutts: Bull/Terrier Mix, Kodak, & two Basset/Lab Mixes, Nikon & Fuji. I have always been a dog lover & have fully enjoyed dog-sitting & dog-walking for friends & family back in OKC, my hometown, & I can't wait to get to do the same for your fur-member here in JAX! I also work at a dog park bar & have gone through dog behavior training & walking. I work full time from home M-Fri, but I can be flexible and am usually available on the weekends. I also take care of my motley crew of 3 pups on the daily. At my own home, I have a fenced-in yard and our dogs to either keep your pup company or have multiple crates to separate them if necessary. I'm happy to check in or dog sit at clients' homes too.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was young. I offer trustworthy pet care with a personal 1 on 1 touch! Senior animal or young animal your furry family member will be in good hands !

I live a pretty active lifestyle, I love to go on runs/walks. I offer flexible & dependable dog sitting to give your pets the attention they deserve!
About: With over 10 years of experience caring for dogs of all breeds (dachshunds, labs, poodles) and cats, I understand the unique needs of both energetic and senior pets. I lead an active lifestyle, offering long walks and playtime, while also respecting each pet’s boundaries. Whether caring for anxious pups or senior pets, I tailor my approach to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine, as I lead an active lifestyle and enjoy spending time outdoors. I’m available for walks, playtime, and overnight stays, and I can adjust my schedule to accommodate the needs of each pet. Whether it’s early mornings or late evenings, I’m flexible and ready to care for your pets whenever you need me. I ensure pets feel safe and comfortable in both my home and theirs by sticking to their routines and respecting their space. In my apartment, I create a secure environment with pet-proofing, plenty of room for play, and cozy spots for relaxation. When caring for pets in your home, I maintain their familiar environment, ensuring minimal stress and maximum comfort. I always prioritize safety, from leash control during walks to administering any necessary medications. Your pet’s well-being is my top priority.
About: Hi! I'm someone who truly loves being around dogs and caring for them like they're family. I’ve had plenty of experience walking, boarding, and spending quality time with dogs of all sizes and personalities. Whether it’s a daily walk, weekend stay, or just some daytime play and snuggles, I make sure every pup feels safe, happy, and loved while you're away. I work remotely so your fur babies won’t spend too much time alone, if any. This also allows me flexibility to cater to your pets needs whether it be fun activities, long walks, or couch snuggles. When I'm home I have a fenced yard for your pups to run around in or they can hang inside. Nothing is off limits to the fur kids in terms of sofas or beds. I have also spent time at client's home and am always clean and organized. I leave places as clean as I find them, if not cleaner.
About: I have had pets since the day I was born and have experience with cats, dogs, fish, squirrels, hamsters, birds, and snakes. I currently have 2 dogs and 2 cats, that I get to spend all day with since I work from home. I can't lie, I'm not much of a runner, but I do love walks and would be more than thrilled to help your pet get some of their steps in to stay in the best shape possible! I’m familiar with administering medications if needed. I look forward to meeting you and your pet! I own my own business, so I have a very flexible schedule. I’m free anytime for walks or check-ins and always find time for extra pets and cuddles! I like to provide a loving, calm environment with toys and play time for entertainment. I look forward to loving your fur baby like my own!
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 14 years and have experience with dogs of all ages, including senior dogs. I grew up with my family dog, Beethoven, and enjoyed everything from daily walks and trips to the beach to teaching him basic commands like sit and fetch. I love spending quality time with dogs, whether that’s going on long walks, playing outside, or relaxing on the couch. Every dog has their own personality, and I enjoy getting to know each one while making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. I’m currently a new graduate nursing student studying for my NCLEX while working part-time as a Patient Care Technician at Mayo Clinic. My schedule is flexible, especially on my days off, and I update my availability regularly. I’m happy to accommodate drop-in visits, walks, and pet sitting whenever my schedule allows. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’ll follow your pet’s routine closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any medications they may need. I have experience giving medications to both dogs and cats under their owner’s instructions and will always keep you updated with photos and messages while you’re away.

“Catherine and her home were a great fit to watch my Stella! She was very communicative and made her feel right at home. We would absolutely use Catherine to board again!”
“Anna and Nick were WONDERFUL! We felt so at ease our entire trip and I never once had to ask for updates because Anna was on it - she sent me photos and videos everyday. Our dog had such a great time and loved playing with her new best friends Chewey and Libby. Will absolutely rebook in the future.”
“Fantastic couple! Made our trip so much more relaxing knowing Cherry was in great hands! They sent so many awesome pics and messages throughout her stay that let me know we’d made the best choice. We will definitely rebook with them!”
“Carolyn was the perfect sitter to watch our little Rocky! This was the first time I left my precious little chihuahua with anyone, so I was especially nervous, since Rocky is a one owner lap dog. Carolyn set my mind at ease and sent me updates with pictures during Rocky’s 3 day stay with her. I heartily recommend this amazing soul who will care for your pet as if her life depended on it. Thank you, Carolyn, for making my Rocky feel so comfortable away from home.”
“Betsy came back very happy and tired. Usually when I leave her with people she comes back with lots of energy. They truly take the take with the dog and exercise. Also respond very quickly with pictures and updates. Highly recommend”
“So glad we found JoAnn. Have lived here 6 years and never traveled anywhere without our dog Cookie, which limits the places we could go. Now, thanks to JoAnn, we have more freedom AND peace of mind. Her home is dog heaven, and she’s a lovely person. We’ll be back!”

“Churro had so much fun at Vigi's house! We were impressed with how many videos and pictures we received while we were away! And Churro ate all of her food, which is unusual for overnight stays! Highly recommend Vigi!”
“We are so happy with our decision to leave George with Katie while we were overseas for our wedding for 2 weeks. It was obvious he was extremely happy in her care and alongside her dog, Maggie! She shared pictures and updates throughout the stay to keep us updated. It was nice knowing our dog George was having his own mini vacation while we were away missing him. 10/10 and will book with Katie again.”
About: I grew up with dogs, cats, horses, chickens, fish, you name it. I currently have two dogs and a cat, pet sit for neighbors, family, etc. I am a teacher, so currently off for the summer with a flexible schedule. I am a teacher, so I am home all summer and during the school year I am home by 2:30 on most days. I go in very early, so my husband does morning walk and breakfast with your dogs. If I am sitting it will be me doing all walks. We live in Atlantic Beach on a cul de sac, with a fenced back yard and lots of room. In the summer my day consists of yard work, gardening, and beach walks. Weekends are generally with my husband and friends. My dogs go for daily walks and pretty much follow me around all day! The cat either lays under the boat or on my daughter's bed depending on her nap schedule. Dogs get breakfast, a snack and dinner at 6:30 sharp and yak chews from the farmer's market as their treats. If house sitting I will do whatever the pet owners prefer.
“Hannah is so patient and kind. She made sure Ellie was happy and healthy during her stay, went above and beyond in her care, and was very communicative with me. I highly recommend her for any pup, especially if you need special accommodations for medical or behavioral issues.”
About: I've taken care of dogs for over 30 years. I love all breeds, temperaments and ages from puppies to seniors. I have a very large house and big, fenced back yard that is ready for games of catch, relaxing, running and canine fun. I love to go on dog walks and play with my doggie guests. I have an extremely friendly Catahoula that loves company. Dog sitting allows her companionship and me the joy of other dogs without having to adopt another. My dog Paisley is my baby and I treat all other dogs guests as such, sending pictures and updates daily. I work from home so your baby is never left alone and I am animal CPR certified in case there were to ever be an emergency. I work from home and am self employed. Your dog will never be left unsupervised. I take my dog Paisley on morning and evening walks and we welcome the company. I have a large fenced dog friendly yard. It is safe and secure. My neighborhood is quiet and I have a large house with just my Catahoula Paisley and I. We welcome the company to make our days more fun. I offer doggy day care, overnight boarding, dog walking and am happy to check in on your baby at your home.
