“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!”
“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.

I will definitely be booking with Ms. Angie again!”

Thank you again Cherisse you and your husband where great !”

Prior to booking, she patiently explained how many dogs she had per day, how often they go outside, what rooms in her home are used, etc. Our was happy and so were we. We would highly recommend her and use again when we can't bring our dog with us.”

Today it feels like Brittanie is family. She took wonderful care of Ella and was in constant communication with updates and photos. It made us very comfortable to know she was in great hands. We can highly recommend her for your pets to, just be warned, they will become family just as Ella has. She can't wait until her next visit.”

About: As a dog sitter, I pride myself on providing the most caring and loving environment for your furry companion. I treat every dog as if they were my own, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and cherished in your absence. Whether it's playful walks, cuddles on the couch, or simply offering a watchful eye, I prioritize their happiness and comfort. With personalized attention and a deep understanding of canine needs, I do attempt to house train with the time I have with every furry friend I receive, giving you peace of mind knowing your dog is in the best hands. I am a college student, getting my degree in digital design. Due to myself being an art major I have more time than other students and will be able to devote more time to my passion and that’s working and caring for animals. I live in a gated apartment complex, therefore yard wise is open but limited. My apartment has more than enough space to play, sleep, and simply enjoy the presence of every furry friend.
About: I’ve taken care of friends and families dogs my whole life, I am a pet lover and very gentle with animals. I have a large Great Dane at home so I am also familiar with large dogs. I am currently a college student-athlete living in Lakeland, not as busy as you think! I take mostly online classes and have a perfect schedule for check-ins, and walks! I’m always looking to help take care of animals because I have a passion and love for them, especially pups🐾💛 I am just looking for check ins and dog walking, I live in an apartment so I most likely won’t be bringing a dog back home.
About: I have been caring for dogs and cats for neighbors, family members, and friends since I was 10 years old. Through this experience, I have developed strong animal care skills and a genuine passion for working with pets. I am comfortable around animals of all temperaments and enjoy building positive relationships with them. I have a flexible schedule and can provide consistent, dependable care for your pets throughout the week, giving them the attention and affection they need while you’re away. I have a secure, fenced-in yard and do not currently have any pets of my own, allowing me to provide focused attention to your pet. I am also happy to crate your dog if that is your preference.
“Lemon had a great time with Angie and the family. Angie was transparent and sent photos to keep us updated throughout the day! We will be using her services again in the future”
About: Firstly, I will listen to your pet's needs that you have, and follow them accordingly. Secondly, I will play with your babies and pay attention to them, with love and affection. I will walk with them around the Lake's, and engage them, by talking to them, so that they know they are loved by me. Thirdly, I do like to play catch and engage them in different games, so their time away from you will fly by for them. Lastly, I am not trained in the Heimlich for dogs, nor CPR, but I have had to do the Heimlich on my own dog, whom was choking on food, to save her life. I look forward to playing with your babies. Thank you so very much.

“Ruth does an excellent job caring for my puppies! She is prompt in response to any communication about their visits or changes in my work schedule, adjusts her schedule when possible to take them out earlier or later, and is easy to communicate with. She’s been overly helpful today especially when I forgot to put the lock box on my door on the way out and had a full schedule at work, she even stopped by to get the key where otherwise my puppies would have been stuck with no potty or exercise breaks for hours. These two are full of energy so I know they appreciated the extra play time they got together today also! We are very grateful for Ruth and her excellent dog walking services.”

We can work anything out, just let me know and I’d be happy to help!!🥰 With my vet tech experience, I am a completely hands on fur mama. I know when something is up and I’m on it! I can always let you know updates on your fur babies with pictures 💕
About: Firstly, I will listen to your pet's needs that you have, and follow them accordingly. Secondly, I will play with your babies and pay attention to them, with love and affection. I will walk with them around the Lake's, and engage them, by talking to them, so that they know they are loved by me. Thirdly, I do like to play catch and engage them in different games, so their time away from you will fly by for them. Lastly, I am not trained in the Heimlich for dogs, nor CPR, but I have had to do the Heimlich on my own dog, whom was choking on food, to save her life. I look forward to playing with your babies. Thank you so very much.

Thank you again Cherisse you and your husband where great !”
“Diymond and Dante kept us updated on our boy by sending pictures and just update texts to ease our hearts. I’m a bit of a helicopter dog mom but with their check-ins I had no room to worry. Thank you both for loving on our Sunny and treating him as one of your own. And a special thank you to Rizz and Henny (their dogs) for sharing your space lol!”
“Megan was wonderful with our fur baby! This was our first time using Rover. She took photos and chatted with us every day. Prior to booking, she patiently explained how many dogs she had per day, how often they go outside, what rooms in her home are used, etc. Our was happy and so were we. We would highly recommend her and use again when we can't bring our dog with us.”
“Did Ella enjoy their time with Brittanie? I'm glad you asked. Not only our first booking through Rover but the very first time we have left our precious Ella with family. Today it feels like Brittanie is family. She took wonderful care of Ella and was in constant communication with updates and photos. It made us very comfortable to know she was in great hands. We can highly recommend her for your pets to, just be warned, they will become family just as Ella has. She can't wait until her next visit.”
“Thank you so much for taking great care of Lilo. When I picked up my Lilo she wagged her tail and it gave me a sigh of relief because I knew she had a great time. I will be using them again for any occasion if Lilo needs to be taken care of. I’m happy I chose you. Thank you!”
