“Jewell is a true jewel!! My nervous pup flourished with her and her sweet pups. My dog is a singlet and isn’t around dogs a lot !Jewell’s pups welcomed her into their home and became great friends with my pup. I appreciate the socialization she received while staying with Jewell. We will be using her again. She is amazing, her home setup is perfect. Jewell is fantastic for nervous dogs. Highly recommended!”
“Viktoryia was flexible and accommodating with our tight travel schedule and kept us updated with plenty of photos while we were away. Finn looked happy and well cared for. Thank you!”
“She sent lots of pictures and was very accommodating with sh l schedule for pick up and drop off, as well as a meetup to make sure the dogs got along with her dogs. Plenty of space for the dogs to run around and play outside including a nice shaded area with a koi pond. Thank you for taking care of our dogs while we were away for the weekend.”
“Absolutely lovely couple. Beth and Jeff welcomed my dog into their home and treated him it was their own. Plenty of pictures, and nothing but positive comments make for a relaxing experience. Thank you”
“Sarah was everything you can ask for in a sitter! She was responsive, attentive, and so professional. My Daisy had a blast, she was played out and had full attention 24/7. My partner and I had total peace of mind on our trip, with constant pictures and updates. I will bring my dogs back for sure. 5 stars”
“I cannot say enough great things about Francis! She watched my senior dog, Madi, for a week while I was on vacation. Just before I dropped her off, Madi had been scratching and developed an issue with her eye pressure and had to start eye drops. Francis welcomed her with open arms. A few days into her stay, Madi needed a follow-up vet visit, and Francis took her in and handled everything—including her meds and eye drops—with so much care and attention. Madi is also on heart meds and requires extra support, and Francis went above and beyond to make sure she was comfortable and well looked after. She sent me daily updates and photos of her relaxing on the couch or exploring her big backyard, which gave me so much peace of mind. I knew Madi was in loving, capable hands. Francis is kind, thoughtful, and clearly has a huge heart for animals—she had a senior dog herself so she understands. I wouldn’t hesitate to have Madi stay with Francis again. You are amazing, I can’t thank you enough!”
“James was awesome. He took in our Ellie and treated her as his own!! We relaxed and enjoyed our visit at the beach knowing Ellie was with James and very well taken care of. Lisa E.”
“Elisa was absolutely wonderful while taking care of my pup. I loved getting videos and pictures throughout his stay with her. It was obvious he was well loved and cared for while at her home. I will definitely be booking with her again in the future!”
“Riley was happy and well cared for. Abigail provided pictures and regular updates. She showed love and affection towards Riley and asked the right questions about feeding and walks etc. We will definately be using her again!”
“Nicholas was so awesome with my skittish girl. She takes a while to warm up to people but he didn’t give up and gained her trust quickly on our weekend away. He shared so many photos and videos to keep our minds at ease. Great sitter!!!!”
“Leslie is truly a dog person with a warm, calm spirit, a perfect match for my sensitive, people-loving Cavalier King Charles Spaniel, Max! Usually Max will go on hunger strikes when I leave him. Not with Leslie. She kept him feeling loved and busy. Her communication was outstanding, far exceeding my expectations. Leslie is the best!!”
About: I have experience caring for both dogs and cats and truly enjoy spending time with animals. I provide feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, and lots of attention. I am patient, responsible, and make sure pets feel comfortable and safe while their families are away. My schedule is flexible, and I am available for pet sitting, dog walking, and drop-in visits during the week and on weekends. I am happy to work with your pet’s routine and provide reliable care whenever you need support. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always make sure pets are supervised and cared for in a calm and safe environment. I follow the owner’s instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walking routines, and any special care your pet may need. I take time to build trust with each pet so they feel relaxed and comfortable while you are away. I am attentive to their behavior and needs and make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and care. I also keep pet owners updated with messages and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is happy and well cared for.
“Merve was absolutely wonderful with our dog — hands down the best experience we’ve had with a sitter. She was always prompt with her communications, took the time to understand all the unique things our dog needs for care, and was super warm and caring for our dog. Plus, she consistently proactively provided picture and video updates so we knew all was good. Would highly recommend Merve!”
“Deborah did a fantastic job! She communicated to advise if all was going well. Was very professional and in my opinion, is an expert in dog sitting. She has several dogs and is well equipped to manage a dog. Was pleasantly surprised how easy the process was and how my Lola enjoyed the stay. Great experience and will definitely use her service again!!”
“Great place for pups! My dogs had a great time with Cindy and Steve. They have a large yard with lots of shade and their dog Maple is so sweet and was a great playmate for my pups!”
“We were so happy with Kendal and Dre. Dexter seemed so comfortable with them and their pup, Zeus. They were excellent keeping us informed with text messages, pictures and videos. Kendal even gave him a goody bag with homemade treats and a toy bone. We have already booked them for another stay next month. Thank you for making us feel comfortable leaving our baby with you both.”
“Yeini watched my dogs for the first time. She made sure to update me multiple times through the day. I am super happy with her services. My 2 malteses looked happy when I picked them up!”
“Our dog had such a wonderful stay with Lori!! She did an awesome job communicating and sending pictures during his stay which alleviated a lot of my anxiety about leaving him with someone new. Thank you Lori and Jim for making Toby feel at home!”
About: I have taken care of animals my whole life, and have cared for 4 dogs in my home until. I love dogs, the outdoors, and being active, so dog walking is super fun for me! I have experience with high-energy dogs as well as slower senior pups. I work part-time and have a very flexible schedule, so I have plenty of free time for your pets! I’m currently available all day (including early mornings) until evening, Monday-Saturday for walks or check-in visits. I currently have Bo, a senior pitbull, who is super chill and has no problems with other dogs. I also recently got a Belgian Malinois puppy named Darth Vader! Mercury, my brother’s 6 year old Australian Cattle dog, loves to play and I take care of him on occasion. We have a large patio and pool that dogs can enjoy laying in the sun or swimming! I also have a super walk able neighborhood, with a walking trail that is off the pavement. Additionally, I do enjoy taking dogs in the car for walks in new locations or trips to the dog beach/park!
“We are so pleased with our experience with Nathalie. It’s obvious she loves dogs; she greeted our Murphy with a big hug. She was familiar with looking after young puppies and had all the patience in the world with our dog. She sent us photos of Murphy playing and having fun everyday. This was the first time we used her and we’ll definitely trust our Murphy with her again.”

“Kathy does such a good job with my animals. I love how kind and happy she is. My animals love her and I’m so happy they are safe during my travels . Thank you for such good care of us.”
“Rebeca took such good care of Didi that I've already booked her for my next out-of-town trip. I especially appreciated all the photos and videos she sent. Didi obviously liked her. Rebeca went over and above what I expected, so I trust her with my feline sidekick.”
“Jen was phenomenal! Every interaction was pleasant and professional. I loved her updates and photos of the boys. I really felt like she cared about them as if they were her own.”
“Nicole is a very caring person. She took care of my two cats like her own. She sent me the details of her daily visit to them. She also sent me the pictures of them. This is my first time using Rover so I was kind of nervous about it but she exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend her. Nicole is the best sitter! Thank you so much!!”
About: I grew up in Michigan always being around animals of all kinds. I was a part of 4-H for 12 years and have owned and taken care of horses since I was practically 5 years old competing in various equine competitions. My family always had indoor-outdoor cats that I loved dearly and my grandma owned a farm that I helped run. I have dog sat for several neighbors throughout my life since I was never fortunate enough to have one of my own. Luckily now I am an aunt to my brother's dog Odin who I have cared for. Today I reside in Florida with my furry friend Kaiah who is a beautiful long-haired cat that is very outgoing and spoiled. She loves car rides and goes everywhere with me. She even has a special bowl for her favorite treats. The reason why I made a rover is because I know what it is like to worry about the care of my pets while I am away! It breaks my heart that I could not bring my horse with me to Florida however I know my mom loves him and that he is getting the attention he needs. I want to be a motherly figure in your pet's life and provide comfort and quality time while also making sure they have been cleaned up after. Dogs, Cats, and Horses are my specialty. I enjoy fitness and spending time outdoors so if you are looking for someone to stop by and walk your dog, or play with your cat or exercise, brush and feed your horse please do not hesitate to contact me. I currently have a relaxed full time job where I can work from the comfort of my home, in my office, or anywhere with WIFI. I travel occasionally for work but am flexible if booked in advance. I think cleanliness is important! no one wants to come home to a stinky litter box and or a pile of poop. I think its important to make sure that dogs are being walked until they have went to the bathroom and that litter boxes are being cleaned out daily. Secondly, I think its important to make sure water is fresh and food is provided on a schedule or in my case the cat food bowl is always full (I let my cat eat whenever she is hungry and she is very healthy). Lastly and most importantly no matter what animal it is they need play time and attention weather it be a walk or a playing fetch at the park or playing with your cats favorite wand toy. Cleanliness Nutrition and Love !
“This was the first time I used Sky to house and cat sit for me and I am very pleased. First of all, she came to my house to meet us and to discuss my cat's daily routine. She was very professional and attentive, and also gentle when approaching my cat. While I was away, Sky sent me a photo of my cat every day, along with a description of what they did that day, both of which I really appreciated. When I came home, I found everything very clean and in good order, including the litterbox and all of her dishes washed and ready for use. My bed was also freshly made, another very kind thing to do for me! I highly recommend using Sky as a pet sitter and a house sitter, you will be happy you did!”
About: I’ve been running a “private flight crew” for dogs in my past apartment community for the last 4 years. Now that we’ve moved into a home with a yard, I’m able to expand my guest list and offer more First-Class stays. I specialize in creating a calm, boutique boarding experience with small groups, gentle structure, and tons of personal attention. My background is in real, in-home care for dogs of all personalities — seniors, shy pups, social butterflies, and everything in between — and I focus on safe introductions, cozy routines, and individualized care so every pup feels secure and completely at home. You can also catch us on instagram - CanineconciergeSRQ Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine — it’s part of my everyday “flight plan.” I work from home and stay hands-on throughout the day, so the pups enjoy consistent attention, yard time, play, treats, and snuggles. My husband, Riley, is also a co-pilot in our little operation, and for reasons unknown, every pup decides he’s their instant favorite — I’ve accepted it. Together we keep a calm, steady rhythm with morning potty breaks, midday activity, afternoon naps, and evening walks or yard zoomies. Because we only host a small number of dogs at a time, each pup gets the time, structure, and companionship they need to feel completely comfortable and cared for. When pups stay in our home, they live right alongside us — part of the household, never tucked away or left alone in a separate space. I tailor each dog’s care to match their routine and personality: slow introductions for shy pups, structured play for energetic guests, cozy rest areas for nappers, and plenty of enrichment throughout the day. I supervise all interactions to keep the environment peaceful and positive, and I follow your feeding, medication, and comfort instructions exactly as you share them. Riley is also involved in the day-to-day care (and yes, he somehow becomes everyone’s favorite within minutes). With only a small number of dogs at a time, we’re able to give each pup thoughtful, individualized attention and create a safe, familiar, truly home-like experience.
“Hailey was amazing taking care of my two kitties. One of them takes medication and she did everything asked. Chaz is very weary with other people. It took a couple times and Chaz was happy to see her. She was also quick of responding to me when I wanted her to add some medication to my other cat. I’m new to this and glad I decided to go with her. I will use her in the future. She was so very nice, thank you Hailey!”
“Tiffany is a fantastic caretaker. We have had her take care of our cat multiple times now and she is always reliable and communicative. Our cat can be a bit slow to come out of her shell and Tiffany sends us helpful updates when we're away. Thank you!!!”
About: I had cats growing up and loved them so much. One of my children was allergic to them so I have missed playing with them. I'm an empty nester with a longtime partner now so that is no longer and issue.
About: I’ve been an animal lover my entire life. In high school, I fostered dogs, which gave me hands-on experience with different breeds, temperaments, and energy levels. Since 2017, I’ve also had a dog of my own, so I understand the daily responsibility, structure, and attention pets need to feel safe and happy. I’m comfortable with everything from energetic pups who need stimulation to more laid-back pets who just want companionship and consistency. I treat every animal like they’re my own. Real estate gives me a flexible, self-managed schedule, so I can easily fit pet care into my day. I’m often out and about locally, which makes drop-ins and walks convenient. I can accommodate mornings, midday visits, evenings, and weekends depending on your pet’s needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize keeping their routine as consistent as possible. I follow all feeding, walking, medication, and care instructions closely to make sure your pet feels comfortable and secure in their familiar environment. I provide plenty of attention, playtime, and affection while also respecting your home and keeping everything clean and tidy. I’m happy to send photo and video updates so you can feel confident and connected while you’re away.
“Tracy is top-notch. She has helped me out a number of times, is very reliable and Ginger loves her. As a cat Dad I am grateful and feel assured when I have to go out of town. Highly recommended and appreciated.”
“Unfortunately we had to cancel Caroline T visit due an illness in my family. However, I want to give her a review for the presentation visit she made in our home & to meet the kitties. She is great, knowledgeable, kind & very loving to our kitties. 110 ⭐️for her.”
“Coral was great!! I have a nervous cat but she had a calm energy that allowed my cat to have some socialization when I was gone. She was also clear and communicative. Totally recommend!”

“Jewell is a jewel! She took perfect care of my 15 year-old 10 lb fog. She is attentive, understands dogs, caring, and even after our first visit, I know I can trust her with my little old soul Zorro completely.”
“Sarah and her family were great! She communicated throughout the day and send pictures! Obi was loved and spoiled from the second I dropped him off! Definitely will rebook with Sarah whenever I need daycare or boarding. Thank you Sarah!!”

“Beth was a wonderful host for Teddy. He can be very anxious on his first visit, but Beth obviously knew how to handle him and make him calm. She opened her home and sent a picture as they sat together. He was so relaxed on the ride home, I could tell he enjoyed the day with Beth and Snickers! Thanks Beth for going the extra mile!”
About: I have been caring for dogs both mine and others for 60 years. From puppies to seniors, and special needs.i have always loved caring for animals. I’m retired and have plenty of time to care for your pet most days from 8:00 am to about 4:00 pm. I will make sure they have a good and safe time away from their family. I have a fenced yard and 4 small dogs that love to play with other dogs. I can crate if it is necessary for your little fur baby.
“Nicholas is our new favorite sitter! His relaxing easy going personality is a perfect fit for our two pups. I tell them on the way there that they are going to spend the day AT THE GREAT BIG YARD! So much room for activities! So many sniffs and smells and sights and yard to check out. Then, especially since it's summer, plenty of snoozing on the couch or cool tiles. Nicholas has been agreeable with some time changes and is super responsive when I have a question. We're new to Rover and will likely not look any further for a sitter now that we've found Nicholas and The Great Big Yard! Thank you, Nicholas!”
“This was my first time booking with Stephanie. I am visiting from out of town. She kept my 2 Cavaliers for the day and all went very well. She sent me pics of my babies throughout the day. They got outside time in the big fenced back yard and they were happy and healthy when I picked them up. I was very satisfied and will book again.”
“Donna and Michael made my anxiety of leaving my precious Luna in day care completely go away. They are such kind caring people that have a great love for fur babies ❤️ I am so thankful to have found them!”
“So grateful to have had our Milo stay in her house. Communication was excellent, and her home—with its backyard—is very cozy. I 100% recommend Yeini for taking care of your pet! Agradecido por recibir a nuestro Milo. Comunicación muy buena y su casa, con patio, muy acogedora. Recomiendo 100% a Yeini por el cuidado de tu mascota.”
About: Animals have been the center of my world for as long as I can remember. Growing up surrounded by dogs, cats, and bunnies, caretaking has always been second nature to me. As a former teacher, I am now leaning fully into my true passion, and bringing comfort and happiness to pets gives me so much genuine joy. Whether your family member is a high-energy pup, an independent cat, or a gentle senior who needs a patient touch and daily medication, I treat them with the exact same structure, love, and respect I would give my own. I can't wait to keep your furry best friends safe, happy, and thoroughly spoiled while you're away! Because my other part-time commitments total only 6 hours a week, my schedule is incredibly flexible, leaving me with plenty of open time to focus entirely on caring for your pets! Here is exactly when I am briefly away each week: Weekday Evenings (2 total): At a gym, I coach a few adult workout classes in the evenings. Sunday Mornings: I teach Sunday school to preschoolers for a brief session. Outside of these short windows, my days are completely open. This minimal schedule allows me to offer highly attentive, consistent care, adapt easily to your pet's normal routine, and provide plenty of companionship throughout the day! Whether welcoming a pet into my home or staying at yours, safety and clear structure are my top priorities. My home is a pet loving environment shared with my friendly dog and two cats. To ensure everyone feels secure and comfortable, I utilize sturdy pet gates to easily separate animals for quiet time or feeding, and I am more than happy to accommodate crating upon request. Because my part-time jobs take up only 6 hours a week, pets in my care receive constant supervision and a highly consistent routine. As a former educator, I am meticulous about following your exact instructions, maintaining strict safety boundaries, and keeping you updated with photos so you can relax knowing your furry family members are safe, respected, and thoroughly loved.
“Brianna was so great with Fin. He had a long traveling car to Sarasota and was exhausted. Lots of new places for him. She was very good with him which was such a relief for me, as I never left him with anyone before.”
“Amazing experience! Abby accepted a last minute booking and provided great care. Communication was excellent, and my dog came back happy. I’ll definitely be booking again!”
About: Hi, my name is Arielle :) I work from Home, we have a single family house with a fenced in yard. I have professional pet sitting experience for a company that services Pinellas County but I moved to Sarasota. Since working for a Professional Pinellas County pet sitting company named Calling All Dogs, I developed a deep love for this type of work and am now available for full time sitting and care as a professional independent contractor. My personal/family experience with dogs and cats has been my entire life. We've had dogs and cats in my family since I was born; basically every member of my extended family even had dogs and cats. Our pack was always consisting of strays and adoptees, some of whom came with medications and emotional issues, and so I am comfortable taking care of pets with medical and psychological conditions. I believe I stand out from other sitters and groomers because I really have a passion to develop a friendship and connection to the pets I care for. I know we as the parents of these guys call upon pet specialists in times of need and I am very happy to give lots of love and comfort to your babies while they are in my care. Communication is very important to me as I know it is crucial to you- I would be the same way and completely understand! So I make it a point to respond to messages or phone calls ASAP. If you have any questions, I'm open! Happy to hear from you! - Arielle :)
About: I have been taking care of dogs my entire life. From my families, to my neighbors and to my friends, they have all asked me for help. I am working part time right now, and I set my own schedule. So, I can work any time, any place. Let me know what works best for you. I always try to treat the animal with the upmost respect. They are living creatures and deserve the best treatment possible. I am very friendly to them and let them build trust with me first.
About: Caring for others is what I do best! I’ve raised two incredible children and we had two sweet cats while the kids were growing up in Massachusetts. I moved to Sarasota 2 years ago and have been dearly missing having pets and family around the house. I’ve loved and cared for many friends’ dogs over the years too and would absolutely love to care for your dogs & cats! I work a very flexible schedule from home in Downtown Sarasota, so I’m always available for pickup/drop-off/walks/jogs/potty-breaks. I am an avid walker (every evening) and I always take breaks throughout the day to go outside, workout, & move around, so I’d love nothing more than a buddy to come with! I have an open layout apartment with a small balcony, and I live across the street from a lovely park. My home is very safe for pets, and I’m able to keep an eye on them at all times since the apartment is petite and I work from the center of it. I’m more than happy to accommodate any environmental requests/needs you may have, just let me know!
About: I have a small dog, Bichon Frise. She’s 6 years old. Before her I was working a caregiver and always was walking my client’s dogs. I’m currently working from home and have ability to take care of your dog. I live in townhouse at the safe community and it’s easy to walk here I have my baby - Bichon Frise who is 6 years old. She’s very friendly. My backyard is fenced, but it’s just for small dogs.
“Tallie is great! I was comfortable with her immediately. I love the atmosphere at her place, you can tell she loves animals. Tallie sent pics so that I didn't have to worry and Buddy obviously enjoyed himself because he went right to bed when we got him home :) Will definitely be using her again.”

“Elle was outstanding, from the first meeting I had with her to her interaction with my dog and her correspondence with me during her visit. I will definitely use her services again in the future.”
“Sofia is fantastic to work with. She was very flexible when I arranged an initial meeting with her and she was very prompt. She was also very sweet with my dog. I look forward to working with her in the future.”

“Daelia took such good care of my baby! She was communicative, followed instructions, and sent photos. She even took care of her in the days following her spay surgery. Thank you again!”
“I had the pleasure of teaching both Jose and Alexis when they were students of mine and they were excellent in the classroom so it’s no surprise that that excellence and professionalism transfers over to their dog walking. It gives me immense pleasure to say that they are by far the most professional dog walkers I’ve come across. They communicated about Luna, took tons of pictures, made sure she had a great time AND got a nice long walk in and showed her lots of love. I wholeheartedly recommend both Jose and Alexis for your dog walking needs. They are exceptional.”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life, which is one of the things that makes me different from other sitters. I’ve had a German Shepherd named Remi, two Australian Shepherds named Sullivan and Sailor, and a Pit Bull named Izzy, so I’m comfortable with all kinds of dogs and personalities. Growing up with them taught me how important it is to be patient, attentive, and loving with every pet. I truly treat every dog like they’re my own and always want them to feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. Since being out of college and home for the summer, my schedule is very opened and flexible. I am available every day of the week and every time that is needed. I have a fenced in backyard, a spacious home for puppies to run around in and would be more than happy to crate your pet if needed.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs, always at least 3 at a time and all sizes and shapes. What else to say… I just love dogs. 😊 I’m working nighttime and ready to take care of your pet every day after 9 am. I can come morning and/or afternoon, once or twice a day. I will come and look around first to make sure it’s clean and I will check the water and the food. Then I will take your pet or a walk and play a bite with his own toys and I’ll have some with me.

“Ashton was so nice and patient with my dog, he is very anxious and not always the friendliest but she did a great job with Apollo, and Apollo seemed to also be very confortable around her, we will continue to use her services as we were very pleased!!!😄”
“Highly recommend her! She communicates and arrives on time. Our dog must have really enjoyed his time with her because he was napping when I got home and was tired. She updated me with great pics of their walk.”
About: I’ve been running a “private flight crew” for dogs in my past apartment community for the last 4 years. Now that we’ve moved into a home with a yard, I’m able to expand my guest list and offer more First-Class stays. I specialize in creating a calm, boutique boarding experience with small groups, gentle structure, and tons of personal attention. My background is in real, in-home care for dogs of all personalities — seniors, shy pups, social butterflies, and everything in between — and I focus on safe introductions, cozy routines, and individualized care so every pup feels secure and completely at home. You can also catch us on instagram - CanineconciergeSRQ Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine — it’s part of my everyday “flight plan.” I work from home and stay hands-on throughout the day, so the pups enjoy consistent attention, yard time, play, treats, and snuggles. My husband, Riley, is also a co-pilot in our little operation, and for reasons unknown, every pup decides he’s their instant favorite — I’ve accepted it. Together we keep a calm, steady rhythm with morning potty breaks, midday activity, afternoon naps, and evening walks or yard zoomies. Because we only host a small number of dogs at a time, each pup gets the time, structure, and companionship they need to feel completely comfortable and cared for. When pups stay in our home, they live right alongside us — part of the household, never tucked away or left alone in a separate space. I tailor each dog’s care to match their routine and personality: slow introductions for shy pups, structured play for energetic guests, cozy rest areas for nappers, and plenty of enrichment throughout the day. I supervise all interactions to keep the environment peaceful and positive, and I follow your feeding, medication, and comfort instructions exactly as you share them. Riley is also involved in the day-to-day care (and yes, he somehow becomes everyone’s favorite within minutes). With only a small number of dogs at a time, we’re able to give each pup thoughtful, individualized attention and create a safe, familiar, truly home-like experience.
About: I have taken care of pets and been around them since I was 5. My family and friends usually rely on me to watch over their pets when they are gone.

About: I have years of personal and volunteer experience caring for both dogs and cats. I raised and cared for two small Schnauzers, and I’ve also looked after about three medium-sized and two large dogs, taking them on walks and making sure they got plenty of exercise and attention. I volunteered at a dog shelter where I helped feed, walk, and care for the dogs regularly. I also cared for the cats at the shelter, ensuring they were clean, fed, and happy. At home, I’ve taken care of my grandmother’s cats—brushing them, feeding them, and spending quality playtime with them. I’m comfortable with pets of all sizes and always treat them with love, patience, and responsibility. My schedule is very flexible, as I run my own business and manage my own time. I spend a lot of time at home, which allows me to give pets the attention, care and companionship they need throughout the day.

I create a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment where animals can feel safe and relaxed. I always follow any specific instructions from the owner, including feeding schedules, medications, and routines. I take the time to build trust with each pet, going at their pace and making sure they feel comfortable around me. Whether it’s keeping dangerous items out of reach, supervising outdoor time, or simply providing a quiet, cozy space to rest, I’m committed to creating a safe and loving atmosphere. Communication with pet owners is also key — I always keep them updated and informed.
About: I’ve spent my whole life around dogs, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. While I’ve raised puppies—like my sweet girl River, who I had from 8 weeks old to 3 years—I’ve grown to love the rhythm and bond that comes with dogs at every stage of life. What sets me apart is a deep sense of patience, attentiveness, and love that comes from years of hands-on experience. I’m especially comfortable with routines, emotional needs, and making sure your dog feels safe and cared for while you’re away. Whether your dog is energetic, mellow, senior, or somewhere in between, I show up with calm energy, genuine care, and a heart full of love for every pup I meet. I currently work remote so I have the flexibility to go on walks during the afternoon, evening, early morning or whenever they need to go out! I’m currently in an house with no other pets. I have plenty of room for them to hangout and feel safe. I’ll make sure they get lots of cuddles and walks.

“Deborah did a fantastic job! She communicated to advise if all was going well. Was very professional and in my opinion, is an expert in dog sitting. She has several dogs and is well equipped to manage a dog. Was pleasantly surprised how easy the process was and how my Lola enjoyed the stay. Great experience and will definitely use her service again!!”

“We were so happy with Kendal and Dre. Dexter seemed so comfortable with them and their pup, Zeus. They were excellent keeping us informed with text messages, pictures and videos. Kendal even gave him a goody bag with homemade treats and a toy bone. We have already booked them for another stay next month. Thank you for making us feel comfortable leaving our baby with you both.”
“Our dog had such a wonderful stay with Lori!! She did an awesome job communicating and sending pictures during his stay which alleviated a lot of my anxiety about leaving him with someone new. Thank you Lori and Jim for making Toby feel at home!”
About: I have taken care of animals my whole life, and have cared for 4 dogs in my home until. I love dogs, the outdoors, and being active, so dog walking is super fun for me!

I also have a super walk able neighborhood, with a walking trail that is off the pavement. Additionally, I do enjoy taking dogs in the car for walks in new locations or trips to the dog beach/park!

I wouldn’t hesitate to have her board with them again!”

About: What sets me apart is my lifelong experience and genuine love for dogs. I’ve raised my own dog since she was 2 months old until she was 12.5 and crossed the rainbow bridge in May of 2026. So I understand every stage from puppy energy to senior comfort. I also grew up with family dogs and have even helped two dogs deliver puppies, giving me hands-on experience with newborns, mama dogs, and special care needs. I’m patient, gentle, and very attentive to each dog’s personality and routine. As a bilingual toddler mom with a naturally nurturing style, I make sure every dog feels safe, loved, and cared for like family. Your pet will get kindness, consistency, and the same level of attention I give my own. Pet care fits naturally into our daily routine. I’m a full-time single mom, and my son absolutely adores animals—we spend a lot of time outdoors, going for walks, playing, and staying active. Adding your dog to our routine is easy and enjoyable for us. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or just keeping them company, I’m already in a rhythm that allows your pet to get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection throughout the day. In my home, pets follow a loving and consistent routine. I provide food twice a day (or according to your dog’s usual schedule), plenty of potty breaks, and a safe, cozy space to rest. There’s lots of playtime, outdoor time, and of course plenty of hugs and attention. I make sure every dog feels relaxed, cared for, and included as part of the family. If I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow your routine exactly—feeding times, walks, crate use, and any special instructions—so your pet feels comfortable and secure in their familiar environment.
