Seaura answered my request quickly and graciously and I immediately got great vibes during our conversation! She welcomed both my pups with open arms for the last two days and they were happy to be with her. Her home was lovely and she kept me abreast of the “goings on”. I would chose Seaura any time we are in her area again!”

“Adrianna was an outstanding cat sitter! She was always on time, reliable, and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away.

“Courtney did a wonderful job taking care of our fur-babies! She went above and beyond with her care, brushing and petting included, and even did a little pre-hurricane preparation outdoors for the forecast storm. We would definitely call on her again when we need a sitter!”
“Jessie is absolutely awesome with my beagle mix, Jake! She walks him around the block and then brings him in and plays with him. He listens to her (not us, so much) and does what she says. Jake loves her and looks forward to her visits. I have Jessie booked until the end of the year because she is so good with him!! Highly recommended!”

About: Hi! My name is Mariana. I’m a college student, and I’ve always loved dogs. Although I didn’t grow up with one, that only made me appreciate them even more. I have experience caring for dogs of different ages, sizes, breeds, and personalities through pet sitting and drop-in visits. I’m comfortable following feeding schedules, administering basic care, going on walks, providing playtime, and making sure pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. I also have experience caring for senior dogs, understanding that they may require extra patience, slower-paced walks, medication reminders, or additional attention to their comfort and routines. In addition, I have experience caring for brachycephalic breeds, such as French Bulldogs, and understand the extra precautions they may need, especially in hot weather and during exercise. My goal is to provide every pet with loving, reliable, and attentive care while giving owners peace of mind. I’m currently taking summer classes and they’re both online so I have a very flexible schedule for any pet care over the summer. I care for pets in my clients home by staying attentive and professional while also providing a level of care and affection. I also have respect for my clients home and their belongings.
About: An FFA (Future Farmers of America) member who helped with our doggy daycare program for a year ranging from medium to small dogs. I also regularly volunteer at Humane Society caring for dogs, cats, guinea pigs, bunnies etc. I have plenty of experience with dogs and cats of all ages! As a full-time college student, I make sure to be able to focus my time on caring for your furbabies! Please contact me so we can schedule around my classes! I highly recommend a meet and greet so the pet(s) gets used to me and I get an idea of their personality. I will also do a quick briefing on any health problems I should know before hand, certain procedures that are common place for your pet to ensure they're comfortable with me and make sure we are on the same page for care.
“Camron is so very pleasant and friendly. She's a pleasure to work with, efficient and reliable. We've had our meet and greet with my cat, Tucker and my dog, Gabby. I hired her for some walks to get to know Gabby better. Honestly, I needed a dependable petsitter who is familiar with my pets and has access to them in case of an emergency or just the next time I need to hire them. I was looking to establish a relationship with someone I can count on wirh my Babies. I know I can count on Camron.”
“Daria has been amazing for our puppy! She communicates and makes sure she knows what you expect. She plays with our puppy and even sends us videos throughout her visit! Highly recommend.”
“Chelsea is great with my dogs! And they can be a handful. Both my pup and older dog love her, and I have no worries that she can handle them and that they are safe. We are lucky to have found her.”
About: I have experience caring for my neighbors’ dogs, helping with feeding, walks, playtime, and making sure they feel comfortable and loved while their owners are away. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs. Whether your pup is energetic and loves playtime or prefers calm companionship, I provide patient, reliable, and personalized care. I’ll treat your dog like my own, keep you updated with photos and messages, and make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I have a flexible routine that allows me to provide loving and attentive care for pets. I work part-time and occasionally travel, but when I’m home, I spend most of my time taking care of my home and my two cats. Since I’m often home, I’m able to provide pets with companionship, attention, playtime, and a comfortable environment. I would love the opportunity to help other pet owners by caring for their animals when they need someone they can trust. I understand how important it is to know your pets are safe and happy while you’re away. I will provide reliable care, regular updates, and treat every pet with the same love and patience I give my own. In my home: I have a spacious home with multiple empty rooms and a fenced yard, providing a safe and comfortable environment for pets. I understand that every animal has different needs, so I can create a calm, separate space if needed. I have two cats of my own, and if they do not get along with a visiting cat, I can safely keep the guest cat comfortable on the second floor with a room, a window, and everything they need, while still providing plenty of love and attention. In your home: I will care for your pets while respecting your home and your routines. I will follow your instructions carefully and will not touch or use anything that I am not allowed to. My priority is to keep your pet comfortable, maintain their normal routine, and leave your home clean and respected.

We enjoy long walks, cuddles, bones and barking. Also sunbathing in our grassy fenced in yard on sunny Florida days.
About: I grow up with pets, almost all my life, and I did the same with my kids, have pets since the were young. So now they are grown and gone, so I would like to do something I enjoy.

When I had my last dog, I take her out every hour to make sure she can use the bathroom. I’m moving this month to a house with 2 acres aren’t fence yet, so it’s plenty of space.
“Always saving the day for me! I had a late meeting and she was able, on short notice, to let Atlas out and give him dinner! It’s nice to have someone to rely on in time of need. Thank you always, Ashley!”
About: Many years of experience in caring for our fur babies, no matter what species caring comes natural for me. It would be my pleasure, to do my part in a time of need. :) I currently work from home so that means more TLC for your pet. Work starts at 8 and ends at 4:30pm full time. Mon- Fri but I’m pretty flexible to cater to any needs that may arise. Since I live in an apartment there is a fenced in dog park onsite as well as other grassy areas to play.

It brings me the most joy to bond with every animal I meet. I will give your furry family the special attention they deserve 💛 My schedule is flexible and I'm willing to accommodate specific needs. Send me a message if you have special requests and we'll figure it out! I follow the instructions of each individual owner. Safety and trust are my top priority.
