“Molly was amazing with my 12-week old puppy! Sent tons of pic/video updates, administered meds including foam when he was itching. She had her sweet Olive girl + other pups during the stay - Molly actively supervised play, had separate feedings, and ensured there was no resource guarding which put my mind at such ease. Tribe will only to Molly’s from now on!!”
“Great dog sitter, will use again! It was the easiest handoff I’ve ever had, usually Ruby starts freaking out that I am leaving her but she settled in with them right away. You can tell Brittany and Stephen are dog people, Ruby was well loved and cared for.”
“Birdie's first stay with Claire was wonderful! This was Birdie's first time staying with anyone other than our next door neighbor, so we were a little concerned if she'd.be comfortable and would "behave herself". We needn't' have worried about anything. Claire is so relaxed and welcoming, and it's clear all the dogs that stay with her are comfortable, happy and just have a ball! Claire sent us photos throughout Birdie's weekend stay, showing her and her other "guests" walking on the beach trail, romping in the backyard and sleeping happily. Can't recommend Claire enough and we know Birdie will jump at chance to stay with her again. Thanks, Claire!”
“We went on a week long cruise, and Leigh took amazing care of our two pups. They had an absolute blast!

Thank you, Leigh and family, for taking such wonderful care of our babies!”

“Amy was great, my dog felt very comfortable at her house and got along with her dog perfectly. My dog can be anxious and have trouble eating when we leave but we had absolutely no issues since she had one on one with her.

“Wonderful, accommodating sitters that made me feel so confident about leaving my high energy dog in their care! I got lots of updates and pictures and they even washed my dog’s favorite toy several times so she had a clean toy to play with! I would highly recommend boarding your dog with Lauren! I hope I get a chance to board my dog with them again!”
“Marianne & Christopher were amazing! They provided updates throughout my dog’s stay and were very patient with all of my dog’s quirks. She tends to get nervous with new people and they were very patient with her. They were also very flexible when my flight got delayed coming back into town, they let me pick up my dog pretty late in the evening to accommodate that. Thank you again!!!!!”

About: I’ve cared for cats for years through pet sitting for friends and neighbors, and I really enjoy getting to know each cat’s personality. Every kitty is different and unique! As a pet owner myself, I know just how important it is to have someone who’s really paying attention to your fur baby, not just doing the typical basics. I always keep an eye on things like appetite, litter box habits, and behavior changes, and I’ll always let you know if anything seems off and if your cat is doing well while you’re away. I’m comfortable with all the day-to-day care, like feeding (including special diets), fresh water, litter box cleaning, playtime, and giving medication if needed. I also have experience with both social cats and more shy or independent ones, and I’m very patient about letting them warm up at their own pace. If your cat loves attention, I’m more than happy to spend time playing, brushing, or just hanging out with them. If they prefer their space, I respect that too!! 🥰 I will always send updates and photos so you can relax knowing your kitty is safe, comfortable, and being loved on while you’re away!! ❤️
“Savannah helped us out with a last minute request and took great care of our kitties and our house. She’s very friendly and followed my many instructions without any issues. Great communication and sent cute photos of our cats! Even our scaredy cat warmed up to her quickly. We arrived home to happy, relaxed cats and a clean home. Thank you so much!”
About: I've been blessed with caring for many cats through the years, from the ones that chose me, to sitting for friends and neighbors cats. I find them to be the most mysterious and magical animals. Our very own Genghis Khan crossed the rainbow bridge recently after 19 years 😿 He was a wild one and we miss him every day. In lieu of getting another cat, I am now dedicating my time to caring pets for others. I tailor every sit to the individual animal's wants and needs...it really is all about them. 😻
“Dylan went above and beyond to get to our house to take good care of our sweet rabbit for 9 days during a huge winter storm. He shoveled and had to walk in from the road due to all the snow and he kept us up to date daily.”
“Reanna was amazing! The fur babies love hanging with her. They were so happy. My mind was at ease while we were gone. We even had a major failure with the litter robot and she found YouTube videos on how to fix it, took it apart and repaired it. I don’t think you can find a better pet sitter!”
“We had great confidence and peace of mind in leaving our senior kitty in Andrea’s care. In our first meeting we could see Andrea’s skill and experience shine through in the way she treated Giselle. Couldn’t be happier.”
About: I’ve had a lot of experience with my sisters cats, and one of them was very temperamental. I understand cat body language and am very understanding of their boundaries!
“Lauren is always amazing with my animals! I trust her completely when I need to leave my babies behind. She’s very reliable and I know my Border Collie loves to see her!”
“Anika was so kind and a perfect fit for our fur babies. She watched them for over a week. Besides routine care, you could tell she really took time to love on our cats and get used to what they liked. One of our cats is pretty shy and usually hides when people come over, but by a few days in, he was running to the door to greet her. She also sent us lots of pictures, checked in with us when things weren’t normal, and cared for our home as well. Thank you Anika!”
About: My work allows me to work from home and I also leave the house to meet with clients out in my community (as a Real Estate Advisor) which allows me the flexibility to care for pets through the day. We are up at 5am and generally go to bed around 10pm. I am self employed (Real Estate Agent) so I have a flexible schedule and work from home and when I leave I am away from home for about 2-4 hours. I have a quiet home in a quiet safe community. I keep busy at home throughout the day with working on the computer to doing basic household chores and some gardening so your dog will stay stimulated and keep active. And there’s plenty of rest and relaxation too! SAFETY, TRUST & ENVIRONMENT: I offer both EXCLUSIVE boarding starting at $60/night and MULTI-family boarding starting at $35/night - your choice depending on your dogs comfort level with other dogs. If you choose EXCLUSIVE Boarding or Daycare, your dog/dogs will the only dogs in my home when they stay. I have a nice fenced in backyard. And I NEVER LEAVE YOUR DOGS OUTSIDE ALONE OR UNATTENDED. If your dog is accustomed to going to kennels or doggy day care then I also offer a reduced rate for MULTI-FAMILY BOARDING in which your dog(s) could be with dogs from other homes, depending on your dogs’ temperament and disposition. I DO NOT MIX AGGRESSIVE DOGS TOGETHER. I know my regular clients very well and understand which dogs may or may not be a good fit for each other. If your dog likes being crated at night or when I leave the house , I do have crates. Just let me know your preference and if your dog has any anxiety or fears. Tell us how you like your dog cared for and we will make accommodations accordingly! I live in a quiet neighborhood so I can also take your dog for a stroll or an active walk (weather permitting). In the middle of summertime I am very careful so as not to overheat your pup! I am self employed and leave the house from time to time (real estate agent) so some days I’m home all day and other times I’m gone for about 2-4 hours.
About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong cat lover with over 10 years of cat-sitting experience. I grew up in a home with four cats and cared for my own tortie for 12 wonderful years. In addition to cat sitting, I also volunteer at my local Humane Society, where I’ve had hands-on experience with cats of all ages, temperaments and breeds, including plenty of energetic kittens! Whether your cat needs playtime, extra cuddles or a calm companion, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy and loved while you’re away.
About: I just recently moved to the Gulfport area and am looking to meet new pets and people. I've been pet boarding and sitting with Rover in Charlotte, NC for the past 4 years. I've had dogs and cats growing up. I've pet sat my friends and families dogs and cats for over 5 years! I love animals and they bring me joy! I currently work part time so I have lots of availability during the week! I am also available on the weekends as well, let's do this. I have a big backyard and front yard and live in a very walkable neighborhood. The backyard is fenced for playing and staying safe! Yay!
About: I’ve been a dedicated dog mom for years — I currently have three of my own, all of whom I’ve trained myself or are currently in training. I’m patient, reliable, and truly understand that every dog has their own personality and needs. I’m comfortable with everything from daily walks and playtime to administering medication and overnight stays. Whether you have a high-energy puppy or a senior needing extra care, I treat every dog like they’re my own — with love, structure, and plenty of belly rubs! Pet care is naturally woven into my daily routine—I have three dogs of my own, so caring for animals is second nature to me. My mornings usually start with feeding, walking, and some playtime or light training. Throughout the day, I schedule time for enrichment activities, potty breaks, and cuddles. Whether I’m caring for my own pets or others, I stay consistent with routines, give plenty of attention, and make sure each pet gets what they need emotionally and physically. It’s a big part of my life and something I truly enjoy! I have 3 very friendly dogs who are all crate and house-trained. They have a consistent schedule and exercise daily! We do parks, walks, hikes, swimming, and running!

About: I have been caring for dogs most of my life and love every dog as if they’re my own. I have experience with all life stages and personalities - whether your dog is high energy and needs lots of playtime or is a senior who just wants to relax and be loved on. I am used to medication management, special diets, mobility challenges and bottle feeding. My adult dog, Olive, is always looking for a new friend to play with. I also foster puppies from time to time, so there may be lots of new friends for your pup to interact with while they’re here. I tailor my care to match animals’ personality and routine. My goal is to make them feel safe, happy and well-cared for while you’re away. Whether that is day care during the day or a long-term trip, they will be in good hands. I am fully remote and will be with your pup(s) all day. We will have plenty of outdoor play time during the day and always make time for afternoon naps. There is a nice 3 mile walking path by my house, so if your dog is very active and likes to walk or run, I would love to bring them along. For less active dogs, there will always be a comfy spot on the couch for them! I have a large fenced yard with plenty of room for them to explore. My dog, Olive, loves to run around back there. There are also cooling mats on the back porch if your dog likes to sunbathe.
“Cassandra has been absolutely wonderful with our little Finnegan. She was incredibly accommodating, helpful, and friendly with our crazy schedules. She would even come to us to pick him up. Cassandra doesn't take on a large number of dogs, so each dog has more one on one attention. This was a large reason why we chose her in the first place, and why were continue to do so. Her property is nice, and comfortable for dogs, even in the heat. Finn always came home happy and content. We were very grateful for her help and can't recommend her enough.”
About: I love animals and treat them like my own. I hug them, hold them, kiss and play with them. I previously had hundreds of animals on a farm in Seminole Fl. From ducks, chickens rabbits ,cats and dogs, to goats, pigs, cows and horses. I like to make them happy because it warms my heart and makes me happy! I'm very patient, compassionate, hardworking, trustworthy and loyal to people and pets. If your pet is with me they will be safe and loved. I have been a homecare person for an elderly family member and have taken care of my friends animals when they have gone out of town. They have all said how clean I keep their home, and it looks like it did when they left.
About: I am a friend to all animals, I don't discriminate! I'm a lifelong Floridian so I love all kinds of wildlife and have a big appreciation for nature and love to be outdoors, taking dogs to the beach or on long hikes. I also am a huge cat person and am mom to 3 cats🐈⬛. I love all dogs– big, small, hyper, cuddly, lazy, energetic. I've had 2 dobermans in my life so I'm very good with what some would consider "scary" or misunderstood dogs. I've taken care of rottweilers, pitbulls, staffys, retrievers, shepherds. I also had a chihuahua for 13 years, a pet bunny, tons of fish & turtles, a bird, and dozens of cats. So I'm well versed in a lot of pets and understand how important they are to us. I can take care of multiple pets at a time! As long as your pet gets along with other animals they are welcome in my home. I will treat any pet as if they are my own baby. I can provide 24/7 supervision & separation from other animals. I can provide hourly potty breaks and exercise. I work from home so I can take care of pets every day. I wake up at 6:30 /7am to begin taking care of my cats and whatever pets I am boarding. I have availabilities 7 days a week. I can take 2-3 pets on for boarding at a time, depending on size. But I have plenty of room and space for pets to be more than comfortable. I take them for walks as soon as I wake up and feed them all breakfast, then take them out at least 4-5 times a day. I lay on the couch with them or take them to the dog park. If your pet has a specific routine just fill me in on the details and I will treat them as if they were my own! I live in a home with a backyard and multiple rooms for space for pets. I live in a pet friendly neighborhood where I can walk dogs for miles and miles! If a pet requires any type of specific space, I have room to provide it for them. I have dog gates & a big guest room so separation is easy and I have a screened in catio for cats

About: Hello! New rescue mom, available for part time pet sitting and/or boarding. I have a very friendly 10 year old Bassett hound mix rescue . I have a very comfortable home, steps away from the downtown Gulfport. Why I love dog sitting: I prefer doggies to humans most of the time! Some call me a dog whisperer- I am instantly very close and make sure to have a bond with each and every animal...I understand separation anxiety can sometimes be challenging so I do my best to treat doggies like lil human beings- making them as happy and comfortable as possible! I make sure every animal has individual attention, care and love while mommy/daddy are away. Meet my pets Harmony. About my yard I do not...I have a small back porch, but I generally walk my dogs 2-3 times a day, and take them to the dog park to get exercise. If I watch your pet during the week, I work from home and can stop over frequently to let them out mid-day. I love taking long walks too! [If your doggie can keep up with me ;) ] I work remote and happy to take the pups out as often as necessary and love taking walks or to a dog park if that is your preference. I stay and work from home and attentive to the dogs needs and they are welcome in any area or on my furniture, and welcome to sleep with me or their doggy beds or crates.
About: Home away from home level love. Expect expert level care, with lots of love, play and snuggles! I only take a few dogs at a time, so that it doesn't get too crowded and everyone gets plenty of attention. We take puppies, seniors, cats, dogs, guinea pigs...you name it! I work from home, so I am rarely away from the pups on weekdays. Drop off times are pretty flexible. Pick up time ends at 8pm. I love when I have conference calls at home and the dogs make a cameo appearance. It makes everyone's day! I have a nice fenced in yard with shady spots throughout. There is a pool that the dogs can swim in if they want. I also have security cameras inside so I can check in when we are not home. Dogs love our doggie door for the freedom to come and go.
About: Hi, I’m Kylee. Animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. I have a 15‑year‑old Pomeranian and two cats of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your pets, especially seniors or animals with unique personalities. I’ve spent years volunteering with shelters, including the SPCA, where I became a behavioral specialist. I worked with dogs and cats who needed extra support, helping them build confidence, reduce anxiety, and become more adoptable. That experience taught me how to read body language, respond calmly, and meet each animal exactly where they are. I’ve also done extensive pet sitting for friends, neighbors, and families, caring for everything from energetic puppies to shy cats to senior dogs who need a slower pace and a gentle routine. I’m comfortable with medication, special instructions, and pets who need a little extra patience. Your pets will get reliable communication, lots of attention, and a safe, calm environment. I treat every animal like my own, and I would only use kennels if it is your preference. I want your pets to feel they’re at a second home. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine because I work from home and have a lot of flexibility throughout the day. I’m already used to caring for my own senior Pomeranian and two cats, so feeding schedules, check‑ins, and quiet companionship are part of my everyday life. Going on walks is something I do daily, both for my dog and for myself, so adding a few more paws to the routine feels completely natural. I also volunteer regularly with local shelters, which keeps me connected to animals with all kinds of personalities and needs. Caring for pets is already woven into my week, and I genuinely enjoy making space for it. I keep things simple and comfortable for pets, whether they’re in my home or their own. I work from home with a flexible schedule, so I’m able to give animals regular attention, walks, and check-ins throughout the day. At home, I follow routines closely and make sure my senior Pomeranian and two cats have a calm, predictable environment — and I bring that same approach to clients’ pets. In their home, I stick to their normal schedule, keep things tidy, and pay attention to what makes them feel safe and relaxed. My goal is always to make them feel cared for and at ease while you’re away.
About: I had my dog from age 6-18 and I was her main caretaker. I taught her a lot of tricks, so I am familiar with a lot of common commands. She was so special to me, so I can ensure that I will always treat your pets with the most kindness and respect to honor that bond. I am currently going to college, but I have a lot of flexibility. It is summer so classes are not currently running, and I have more time to care for animals! While boarding, I have a fenced in yard as well as a nice neighborhood for walks. Either while boarding or pet sitting, I make sure that I learn their routines from you and make sure that I follow them as closely as possible.
“Brianna was wonderful for my dog Cody. He was peaceful and happy with her. She provided a safe environment. Cody is a nervous little guy and it is important to me that he is cared for by someone who is patient and understanding. I will definitely book with Brianna when I need a dog sitter again.”

“Marlene does an amazing job making sure our dog is comfortable and happy! She really goes above and beyond to help calm him down and soothe him since he can be very anxious around new people. We highly recommend her services!”
About: I’ve been loving animals my entire life & treat every pet like my own. I’ve owned and cared for dogs of all ages, sizes, and temperaments, including high-energy breeds, senior dogs, and pets with medical needs. I currently care for my own dog, Auggie (8), who requires daily medication, a special diet, and extra attention due to anxiety and seizures, so I’m very comfortable handling detailed care routines and staying attentive to a pet’s health and behavior!! I’ve also helped raise and care for multiple dogs over the years, including training basic obedience, grooming, and managing multi-dog households. I regularly help care for a Siberian Husky (high energy!) and have experience with reactive and strong personalities. In addition to dogs, I’ve pet-sat for cats and small animals (hamsters, fish, reptiles, etc.) for neighbors and friends since I was young. I’ve even been running my own little pet-sitting and dog-walking gigs since I was a kid, and this has always been something I really love, just getting to be around animals. ❤️ I’m very communicative, send regular updates and photos, and make sure you feel completely comfortable while you’re away. Your pet will be safe, loved, and cared for like my own fur baby family! I currently have a very flexible schedule and am available throughout the week for drop-ins, walks, and in-home pet care. As I begin my part-time contract work, I will continue to have flexibility with availability, especially during mornings, afternoons, lunch breaks, and weeknights. I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine and provide consistent, dependable care that fits their needs! :) I provide in-home care in your pet’s own environment, where they can feel most comfortable and secure. I understand that welcoming someone into your home and trusting them with your pets is a big responsibility, and I treat every home with the same respect and care I would want for my own. I follow your instructions closely, maintain your pet’s normal routine, pay attention to their behavior and needs, and provide updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.

Platforms for 5 years caring for hundreds of pets! I make sure to be as flexible as possible to meet their every need! I love dogs and taking them out to play and giving them plenty of love. I’m also a huge cat person and adore playing with the little fluff babies I am passionate about connecting with and making the most time for your fur baby. While I love my kitty at home, I also have a sweet spot in my heart for dogs. I love getting to know every pets individual personality and their funny little quirks Im great with all services needed. I know how to take care of young and old. Each has their own special needs that I am going to make sure they get
About: I have grown up with dogs my entire life, so they have always just been a part of the family. I recently adopted my sweet perfect angel kitty Lola and helped my old roomates out with their cats so I love them as well. I am a law student so I have 2-3 hour classes periodically throughout the week. I also volunteer as a Guardian Ad Litem and with gulf coast legal services so sometimes I have those obligations as well. I will not bring pets into my home but can definitely visit yours and your fur baby as needed! I look forward to meeting you and your fur child
“Dylan was amazing ! Completely on time completely took care of our baby Bella while we’re doing a trip and he was very, very very respectful of our home and we trust him completely. Definitely use them in the future.!!”
About: I have always been the go-to person my friends and family ask to watch their fur babies, from quick visits to overnight stays. I have a very anxious fur baby at home who is my whole world, and know how nerve wrecking it can be leaving your beloved pet with someone new. I am happy to go above and beyond to ensure your pet is safe, happy and well cared for! I currently am in school full time and have a lot of evenings open as well as gap days. There are many windows of time where I am free and able to give your pet my undivided attention and love! I have a large home that does not have a fenced in yard, but does have a screened in porch that lots of pups have enjoyed laying in the sun and looking out the windows of! :) I am in the Gulfport art district and can easily access anyone in that area. I am VERY committed to your pets safety and happiness in my home.
About: I am a friend to all animals, I don't discriminate! I'm a lifelong Floridian so I love all kinds of wildlife and have a big appreciation for nature and love to be outdoors, taking dogs to the beach or on long hikes. I also am a huge cat person and am mom to 3 cats🐈⬛. I love all dogs– big, small, hyper, cuddly, lazy, energetic. I've had 2 dobermans in my life so I'm very good with what some would consider "scary" or misunderstood dogs. I've taken care of rottweilers, pitbulls, staffys, retrievers, shepherds. I also had a chihuahua for 13 years, a pet bunny, tons of fish & turtles, a bird, and dozens of cats. So I'm well versed in a lot of pets and understand how important they are to us. I can take care of multiple pets at a time! As long as your pet gets along with other animals they are welcome in my home. I will treat any pet as if they are my own baby. I can provide 24/7 supervision & separation from other animals. I can provide hourly potty breaks and exercise. I work from home so I can take care of pets every day. I wake up at 6:30 /7am to begin taking care of my cats and whatever pets I am boarding. I have availabilities 7 days a week. I can take 2-3 pets on for boarding at a time, depending on size. But I have plenty of room and space for pets to be more than comfortable. I take them for walks as soon as I wake up and feed them all breakfast, then take them out at least 4-5 times a day. I lay on the couch with them or take them to the dog park. If your pet has a specific routine just fill me in on the details and I will treat them as if they were my own! I live in a home with a backyard and multiple rooms for space for pets. I live in a pet friendly neighborhood where I can walk dogs for miles and miles! If a pet requires any type of specific space, I have room to provide it for them. I have dog gates & a big guest room so separation is easy and I have a screened in catio for cats
“Andrea was so nice. She came to meet my dog beforehand and myself. She double checked and even sent me a picture. I will definitely be using her in the future.”

She updates me with pictures and videos too! She is THE BEST !!!!”
About: Having pets for over 25 years, and having done a lot of pet sitting for others, has taught me what unconditional love is. I am committed to understanding what each individual pet needs and wants and I tailor my attention to every pet accordingly. Long walks for dogs ✅ shorter walks ✅ playtime ✅ lots of cuddles ✅ no cuddles, no problem ✅ I am here to care for animals the way they like, as it is all about them. I always walk the dogs at their pace and they can stop and sniff as much as they want ❤️ Working for myself, and two days part-time outside my home, offers ample time to care for your pet, whether in your home or mine. I have a big yard for your puppers to play and take long walks everyday...I would love to have your dog along on my neighborhood treks. I also like to load them up in the truck and drive to new, unexplored parts of town...new sights and sounds and smells to keep our awareness sharp.
About: I love animals and treat them like my own. I hug them, hold them, kiss and play with them. I previously had hundreds of animals on a farm in Seminole Fl. From ducks, chickens rabbits ,cats and dogs, to goats, pigs, cows and horses. I like to make them happy because it warms my heart and makes me happy! I'm very patient, compassionate, hardworking, trustworthy and loyal to people and pets. If your pet is with me they will be safe and loved. I have been a homecare person for an elderly family member and have taken care of my friends animals when they have gone out of town. They have all said how clean I keep their home, and it looks like it did when they left.
About: I've grown up with animals of all kinds since I was 5 and started dog and cat sitting when I was 11. I've had dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, fish, gerbils, goats and horses. I've cared for dogs and cats of all ages and sizes. I'm proud to say that I've owned and/or cared for a wide variety of dogs (to name a few I'm most familiar with - Weimaraners, Boxers, Akitas, Corgis, Chihuahuas, Pomeranians, Dobermans, Greyhounds, German Shepherds, Bichon Frises, Golden Retrievers, French Bulldogs, Pugs & Labradors). I've owned and cared for several special needs pets that required close attention and administering medications and treatments, so you can rest assured that I'm capable of tending to any special requests. I absolutely love animals so I'd love to give yours all the extra TLC they need while you're away and take care of them as if they were my own. I'm self employed and I have a very flexible schedule. You can rely on me to easily accommodate your pets every need while you're away. I'm happy to do everything I can to take the best care of your pets while you're away. I take pride in my connection with animals and being reliable. I know how much it means to me to have that in my petsitters when I travel and am away from my babies. I'll take excellent care of your pets and follow your every instruction to the tee.

About: Hi, I’m Kylee. Animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. I have a 15‑year‑old Pomeranian and two cats of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your pets, especially seniors or animals with unique personalities. I’ve spent years volunteering with shelters, including the SPCA, where I became a behavioral specialist. I worked with dogs and cats who needed extra support, helping them build confidence, reduce anxiety, and become more adoptable. That experience taught me how to read body language, respond calmly, and meet each animal exactly where they are. I’ve also done extensive pet sitting for friends, neighbors, and families, caring for everything from energetic puppies to shy cats to senior dogs who need a slower pace and a gentle routine. I’m comfortable with medication, special instructions, and pets who need a little extra patience. Your pets will get reliable communication, lots of attention, and a safe, calm environment. I treat every animal like my own, and I would only use kennels if it is your preference. I want your pets to feel they’re at a second home. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine because I work from home and have a lot of flexibility throughout the day. I’m already used to caring for my own senior Pomeranian and two cats, so feeding schedules, check‑ins, and quiet companionship are part of my everyday life. Going on walks is something I do daily, both for my dog and for myself, so adding a few more paws to the routine feels completely natural. I also volunteer regularly with local shelters, which keeps me connected to animals with all kinds of personalities and needs. Caring for pets is already woven into my week, and I genuinely enjoy making space for it. I keep things simple and comfortable for pets, whether they’re in my home or their own. I work from home with a flexible schedule, so I’m able to give animals regular attention, walks, and check-ins throughout the day. At home, I follow routines closely and make sure my senior Pomeranian and two cats have a calm, predictable environment — and I bring that same approach to clients’ pets. In their home, I stick to their normal schedule, keep things tidy, and pay attention to what makes them feel safe and relaxed. My goal is always to make them feel cared for and at ease while you’re away.
“Alexa was fantastic! Peanut was well cared for by Alexa. Her two dogs are super friendly. Her home and yard were safe and clean. I plan to use Alexa again and strongly recommend you book her. Just don’t book her when I need her!! Haha”
“Lori and her pup Sasha took amazing care of my pup Charlie!! I received photos and comments thru her stay. Sasha welcomed Charlie in with open arms. They napped together on the couch within 30 minutes of drop off!! Lori is a dog person and you can tell it from the start. She took wonderful care of Charlie and we can’t wait to come back to St Pete and see them both again!! Thank you Lori!!”
