“Angelica is absolutely amazing. She sent photos and videos every single day, was responsive, friendly, and a wonderful professional. My pup was obsessed with her immediately. Her home was immaculate and safe for my girl. I could not have asked for a better sitter and will 100% be using her services again. I almost think my puppy didn’t want to leave her. Plus, she returned her to me having washed her bed and my puppy was clean and smelling amazing. You can’t go wrong with Angelica.”
“Danieris and Julian are a wonderful and kind couple. They welcomed my dog and communicated regularly about his stay and questions. I would absolutely use them again.”
“I had an amazing experience with Angie! She truly has a deep love and care for dogs, and she made my dog feel completely comfortable during his stay. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was in such loving hands while I was out of town. Angie is someone I genuinely trust, and I’m so grateful I found her. 10/10 experience! I will definitely be booking with Ms. Angie again!”
“Matt and Nicole took the best care of my babies Russ and Delilah especially since I was in a very hectic time of my life. They loved my dogs as if they were their own. They got them personalized name tags and made Delilah a beautiful necklace with her name on it. They gave them baths, took them swimming, and walked them all the time. They stayed in contact and set my mind at ease knowing they were in the best hands possible. I would highly recommend Matt and Nicole to care for your furbabies because they really do treat them like family.”
“Summer has watched my Dane 3 times now and I will continue to use her as she reply’s in a timely manner and updates regularly, I trust her and her son 100% with my big boy I know he’s getting all the lovins and attention he craves !!🙂❤️”
“Megan is phenomenal! She provided absolutely incredible care to Kingo, he was happy, healthy and clearly well loved when we picked him up. If you are looking for a reliable, caring, and professional dog sitter, look no further. We highly recommend her and will definitely be rebooking!”
“Angela and Jorge were so good with our poodle Bailey! They made us feel comfortable in their home and Bailey to feel welcome. The communication was superb and we felt she was well cared-for and happy. We will definitely use them again.”
“I needed boarding for my two dachshunds at the very last minute due to a family emergency, and Joanne was incredibly understanding. She worked with me while I sorted out my travel plans, which was a huge relief. While my babies were in her care, she kept us updated multiple times a day. We appreciated that so much since we’re usually nervous leaving our dogs anywhere. It was comforting to know they were settling in well and genuinely having a good time. Highly recommend!”
“This was our first time using James’s for our fur babies and both Winston and Bella just fell into a routine and made themselves right at home! He did a great job entertaining both of our dogs at the same time and loving them equally. They have different foods, and he was able to take care of each of them as they needed to be taken care of. Also, he mentioned that he would keep in touch and send pictures. He absolutely did a great job letting us know how our babies were doing even within a couple hours of dropping them off, and letting us see that they were getting the love and attention they needed. I highly recommend him, and we will use him again in the future!”
“What a blessing. Christians love of animals shines brightly. His attention to detail and excellent communication is unmatched. I have never met a care giver more dedicated to the joy, health, and well being of another left in their care. ⭐”
“Rosie had the best weekend with Brittanie and her family! She was loved and cared for like she was their own. Brittanie sent pictures every day to show me how much fun Rosie was having and communicated with me with how she was doing. I felt so comfortable having Rosie with her and knew she would get lots of attention and cuddles. I am already booking another stay. 100% would recommend this sitter to anyone looking for a caring and nurturing environment for their fur baby.”
“What a wonderful experience my dog Izzy had with Marcy! Izzy is a 7 lb Morkie that is terrified of other dogs. The bigger the dog, the louder the dog, the more terrified she is, which makes boarding her difficult. Izzy had a great time playing with Marcy’s 5 lb. Betty Boo, so it was a great social experience for my dog. Marcy also is terrific - I knew my dog was getting the best of care in my absence, and all for a reasonable price. I will definitely use Marcy again and if your considering Marcy, don’t hesitate!”
“Amazing care taker. My dog had a fantastic time with her family. She also went above and beyond to help ne with a certain difficult situation. I would 100% recommend her and her family.”
“Briana was so nice with my girls. Every time I asked her about Mila and Lucy, she sent pics about them. She and her family are really nice people and for sure she will be my sitter in the future. All my worries disappeared working with her!”
“They saved our Christmas! Our dog sitter for a family trip canceled at 9pm on Christmas Eve, and Shelisha responded promptly on Christmas morning, making it so we could take our kids up north to see their grandparents.”
“Susan was wonderful! She stayed in contact with me during my puppy's stay and sent lots of pictures. My pup was so worn out from all the playtime she had in their big fenced in yard with the other dogs. We will definitely use her again!”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Ruth was wonderful with our three cats! She took the time to learn their routines and made sure each of them was comfortable and cared for during her visit. She was very communicative, sending thoughtful updates and photos that gave us so much peace of mind. It’s clear she truly cares, and we came home to happy, relaxed cats. We’ll definitely be booking Ruth again.”

“Amber is amazing! We have two cats that require daily medication and she was kind enough to agree to help watch them. She made sure we felt comfortable with her and was very professional. My cats both warmed up to her very quickly and we knew they were in good hands.”
“Jennifer is the best!!!! My cats were treated so well that I didn't see any difference in their behavior after our extended departure. They were relaxed when we arrived and I could see right away that they really liked the care Jennifer gave them. Jennifer was very helpful and available. She helped us out when our trip out of the country was extended by 2 weeks. I had peace of mind knowing my cats were in good hands. Everything was clean when I arrived and my cats had missed us, but I could see that they were relaxed and well fed. seraphin, my most shy cat, was super comfortable with her, and that's a great proof of the quality of the bond Jennifer knows how to build with animals. Thank you :-)”

He was on-time each time he came to our house & we're getting ready to book him again. I'd definitely recommend Joshua :)”

“From the moment we dropped off our pup, I felt completely at ease. My dog was clearly happy, comfortable, and well cared for the entire time. She sent regular updates with photos and messages, which meant the world to me and gave me so much peace of mind. It’s obvious she genuinely loves animals and treats them like family. I will definitely be booking with her again—highly recommend!”
“Excellent care surrounded by a loving family. Updates were provided with photo. Fenced yard and safe surrounding.. my pup was happy. Thank you Angie. Hope to see you again.”
“Ms. Vely rocks! This was Coco's first full Day with Ms. Vely, so when she took command right away I was glad for that since she was a fresh face for my Coco to get used to over a long period of time. She is so wonderful and kind with doggies, I had no doubt she'd get my boy out of his shell. She updated us with photos and short videos throughout her time with Coco to show our little man was doing just awesome..... And the tongue hanging out the side of his mouth with a big toothy grin showed that she sure did get him out of his shell! Coco was even a gentleman doggie and made sure to follow her inside after every jaunt outside! Glad to have found Ms. Vely and glad to have her watch him again! You cannot go wrong with Ms. Vely!”

“Cassidy was very accommodating, flexible and kind with my fur babies. It was their first time left alone all day in a very long time and my first time using the app and Cassidy was patient with my new navigation of this process and tender hearted to my lonely doggie.

Whether it’s that there is a specific location they like to go on walks or they have a special routine for eating. I make sure to clean whatever I’m using to prepare the meal. And I am very patient with shy animals that need some time to warm up to strangers.
About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong animal lover who grew up with a dog and two cats and honestly, I can’t remember a time when there wasn’t a furry friend by my side. I’ve always been surrounded by animals, from family pets to farm animals, and over the years I’ve become the go-to pet sitter for friends and neighbors. Now that I’m a college student, I really miss having animals around, so I’m excited to share my love and care with your pets! Whether it’s going for walks, playtime, or just keeping them company, I’ll treat your pets like my own. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family members, and I’ll always make sure they’re safe, happy, and loved! I am currently in a social work graduate program, so I am in an internship during the weekdays 9am-4pm. I can usually work around those times, and I try to be as flexible as I can, so please reach out even if my calendar says I’m not available! I live in a pet-friendly apartment with two friendly cats (who can easily be separated if needed), a screened-in patio perfect for lounging, and access to a dog park and safe walking trail nearby. It’s a cozy, welcoming space where pets can feel relaxed and at home. I’m comfortable following any specific care routines or instructions you provide, and I’m also very intuitive when it comes to understanding an animal’s needs and emotions. Whether your pet needs extra playtime, quiet companionship, or just someone to make them feel secure while you’re away, I’m happy to provide that love and attention.
About: I’ve been a dog lover for as long as I can remember! My mom had a rescue and I’ve grown up surrounded by dogs of all sizes and personalities, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. I’ve also spent time volunteering at dog shelters, which has helped me understand and connect even more deeply with our furry best friends. Whether your pup is full of energy and loves playtime, or prefers snuggles and a calm walk, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I treat every dog like they’re my own—with patience, kindness, and lots of belly rubs! I’m reliable, gentle, and truly passionate about what I do. I know how much dogs mean to their families, and I’ll care for yours with all the love and attention they deserve. Can’t wait to meet you and your furry best friend! 💗😊 I’m home all day, everyday since I study from home. Taking care of pets is something I truly enjoy, and it fits perfectly into my routine. I have two super friendly Shih Tzus. They love meeting new furry friends and are great at keeping other dogs company! But if your pup prefers their own space, no worries I can easily keep them separated to make sure everyone feels safe and comfortable. I don’t crate dogs unless it’s requested by the owner. I’m happy to follow your pup’s usual routine, whether that means long walks, playtime, trips to the park, or just some relaxing cuddle time. My home is full of love, and your pup will be treated like part of the family!
About: I started caring for pets of my own at 18. I have worked as a vet assistant/tech for over 6 years. I am certified in CPR/First Aid and have worked with pets of all ages. My ex-husband and I raised two dogs from puppies and have adopted/fostered many senior pets. One of our dogs is a tripod, one is epileptic, and one is incontinent, so I have special needs experience. I also have experience caring for donkeys, horses, reptiles, chickens, birds, and fish. I pride myself in being kind and patient in nature. It is of the utmost importance that pets in my care feels safe and secure. I work full-time as a vet tech at a vet clinic in Lithia. I just moved to the area from Southern Indiana. I can do visits on my days off or before/after my shifts. My fur babies are more than just out pets; they are our kiddos. Your babies will be treated as such, too! Before I moved, I provided both drop in and boarding services. At this time, I can only do drop ins. I have subscription to Bark Box and a HUGE basket filled to the brim with toys. We keep plenty of blankets and beds around the home. We have a large sectional that we lounge on and a fully fenced in yard. We also have an exercise pen as well as the following sizes of crates on hand: two large, one extra large, and one small. Let us know what arrangements you have in your home so we can best emulate them. We also have baby gates set up to keep pets separate if necessary, and still allows for free roam in a portion of the house.

“Angelica is absolutely amazing. She sent photos and videos every single day, was responsive, friendly, and a wonderful professional. My pup was obsessed with her immediately. Her home was immaculate and safe for my girl. I could not have asked for a better sitter and will 100% be using her services again. I almost think my puppy didn’t want to leave her. Plus, she returned her to me having washed her bed and my puppy was clean and smelling amazing. You can’t go wrong with Angelica.”
“Danieris and Julian are a wonderful and kind couple. They welcomed my dog and communicated regularly about his stay and questions. I would absolutely use them again.”
“I had an amazing experience with Angie! She truly has a deep love and care for dogs, and she made my dog feel completely comfortable during his stay. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was in such loving hands while I was out of town. Angie is someone I genuinely trust, and I’m so grateful I found her. 10/10 experience! I will definitely be booking with Ms. Angie again!”
“Matt and Nicole took the best care of my babies Russ and Delilah especially since I was in a very hectic time of my life. They loved my dogs as if they were their own. They got them personalized name tags and made Delilah a beautiful necklace with her name on it. They gave them baths, took them swimming, and walked them all the time. They stayed in contact and set my mind at ease knowing they were in the best hands possible. I would highly recommend Matt and Nicole to care for your furbabies because they really do treat them like family.”

“Rosie had the best weekend with Brittanie and her family! She was loved and cared for like she was their own. Brittanie sent pictures every day to show me how much fun Rosie was having and communicated with me with how she was doing. I felt so comfortable having Rosie with her and knew she would get lots of attention and cuddles. I am already booking another stay. 100% would recommend this sitter to anyone looking for a caring and nurturing environment for their fur baby.”

Our girls get excited when we pull into her neighborhood, which is so amazing because we have always felt guilty leaving them when we go on trips.

“They were amazing to my kitty Buggy, super understanding of all my crazy asks and nervous jitters leaving my friend behind. They sent update pictures and even went to the store to pick up more food and treats because I had miscalculated how much she would need. I would definitely use them again.”
“I couldn’t ask for the most perfect person to watch my Roman. Rom is a lot to deal with sometimes and requires lots of patience and she was that and more. Bri would send lots of updates and pictures during our time away from Roman and which was much appreciated!! She was very easy to communicate with as she well.”
