Charlie is a shy cat and is reticent of people outside our family. Alana has built up trust and can easily pet and play with Charlie. A five star rating doesn’t cover her passion or dedication!”

“Ana was amazing! We met her a couple days before and she and her dog Lex immediately connected with our pup, and then this morning when we went to drop our pup off, she happily trotted in the house to meet Lex instead of freaking out like she normally does when we leave her! She had a great day, we got a bunch of pictures, and she was clearly very happy when we picked her up. Very glad to have found Ana!”

About: I've grown up with a large variety of pets my entire life, ranging from dogs (big, medium and small), cats, fish, beared dragons, chinchillas, and hamsters. Therefore I am very comfortable when it comes to handling varying types of pets and their personalities. Currently a full time college student and also looking for a part time job, but all my classes are online so my availability is pretty flexible. I walk 2 of my dogs daily as well as play with them in my backyard for at least 15 minutes a day since they are younger and need the enrichment.

I currently work full-time but I am off work at 3 pm everyday so my whole afternoon is available. My off days are Sunday and Tuesday which I am completely available for. I know it’s hot here in southwest Florida and your pets care and safety in this hot sun is the most important for me! I know how hard it can be on their paws and how quickly some breeds can overheat.
About: I love pet sitting. I’ve been taking care of pets since I was 10 and have owned family pets my entire life. I walk a lot so will take your dog on many walks through the day.

I also have drop in-s for other pets which last about an hour. Please make it clear how long your animal is able to be alone when booking so there’s no confusion. I love pets more than people! I give them all my praise but I’m also strict and don’t let them indulge in human food. Hope we can work together 🫶🏼 I have my own business and am never gone for more than a few hours at a time. I teach hour long yoga classes so gone about 2 and a half hours with commute and set up time! I always do a meet and greet so I know where I’m staying, where the dog food is and how everything works, like when trash day is etc.
