“Our little dog, Miss JJ had a wonderful time with Nancy! Nancy sent us photos and emails during our travels, and we loved hearing from her. We would absolutely use her again!”
“Nicholas was awesome with Zeus. For the 2-1/2 weeks we were gone he kept us infor.ed and sent pictures frequently. I realized the day after we left that I had missed Zeus' heart worm protection and Nicholas went out of his way to pick up a dose at my vet. We highly recommend Nicholas and will absolutely use his services again”
“My dog had only stayed with my FIL when we went away but he passed away this year and we were stressed not knowing who to leave him with. We interviewed multiple people and chose Lexi and her sweet family. She was so great at keeping in touch throughout our 2 week trip. He was so well taken care of and they went up and beyond to accommodate our schedule when we had traveling issues. Im certain he cant wait for our next adventure away where he can go stay and play. Lexi and her family are the best and we are thankful to have found them :)”
“Nicole was great with our pup. She was very responsive with sending info & photos throughout the day. I like that Nicole has two dogs of her own. Our puppy was so happy to have space to run around and loved having friends to keep him company. We would definitely recommend her and looking forward to having her watch Mav again in the future.”
“Troy and Gabi were so wonderful! Very engaged and interactive with Benny and he had the time of his life. They were flexible with pickup and drop off times and kept me updated on his stay. Thank you so much, we will be back!”
“Alyssa was a great and quick communicator. She helped with my dog's medications, which were a few of them. It sounded like Klyo had a great time and had a chance to interact with other dogs for a change. Will definitely use again when needed.”
“You won't find a better pet sitter than Linda and her husband Brian. They are devoted to their sweet girl Carmi, who plays so well with any dog they bring into their home. I have no worries when I leave Hank, other than she will be booked the next time I need her. 😍♥️”
“Glen was absolutely wonderful with my dog, Jordi! From the very start, he communicated clearly and consistently, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. He sent me pictures every day, so I always knew how Jordi was doing. I especially appreciated that Glen was able to give Jordi her epilepsy medication on time without any issues—something that is very important to me. Jordi was not only well cared for but also had such a fun time! She loved playing with Glen’s dogs and spending hours in her favorite spot outside in the yard. It was clear she was happy, comfortable, and treated like family. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience, and I would absolutely recommend Glen to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and attentive sitter. Jordi can’t wait to go back!”
“Jackelyn was excellent. We did a visit prior to his stay. She was so warm and welcoming to both I and Russell. He took to her immediately. She allowed him to run freely in the house. I received pictures and updates daily. Jackelyn actually taught Russell to sit and lye down. We’re back together and he is kind of moping around. I’ve already talked about anther upcoming stay. I believe he’s found his second home. Thank you so much Jackelyn. 💕💕💕🐶🐩🐩”
“Jessica was amazing!!! I nervously left my chihuahua and her three 5 week old puppies with Jessica while I was on vacation near her. She kept them safe, socialized them and generally treated them like they were her own. She was organized and helpful. Jessica kept me up to date with information about how they were doing and sent regular photos and videos. I highly recommend Jessica as a sitter.”
“This is my first time with everything. Our first puppy and having to leave her with a sitter. Freddy and Talena went Above and beyond. Great communication Our puppy Genesis she had fun.”
“Catherine was so sweet! She was very prompt in responding to my questions and flexible when my return flight was delayed. My dog had a wonderful time with her and will be visiting again soon!”
“Carla cares with her whole heart! Our pup Misha got sick on the car ride over and Carla was a rockstar about it. She helped us by tending to Misha and ensuring his bed was cleaned with great eagerness- she's definitely one of the best dog sitters :)”
“Lara took very good care of our doodles while we were away. She sent daily updates with pictures. Maude and Murphy looked like they enjoyed their stay, playing with other pups and barking at the ponies. We appreciate Lara taking good care of Maude and Murphy for us. We felt that they were in good hands while they were with her, which really put our minds at ease while we were out of town. Lara will definitely be our sitter for any future travels. Thank you Lara.”
“We are so excited to have found Cheryl! It's wonderful to know our dog will be in good hands when we have to leave her behind. Cheryl is knowledgeable, you can tell she has been working with dogs for long time. She always keeps you up to date with messages and plenty of pictures. It was obvious our dog had such a great time playing with her friend Bella. Search no more this is the one!”

“Leticia was so wonderful yet again! We so appreciate having her come and look after our little pup. She always takes some of the best pictures and gives him so much love!”
“Linnea was great! We were gone for two weeks and I could always count on her being at our house at a specific time to look after our two cats. She took excellent care of them. I previously used another sitter from this site and when I would come home one of our cats (who is very loving but also extremely high strung) would be all wound up and "hyper". This time when we came home she was calm and relaxed and ready to snuggle. I will definitely be using Linnea again. She has become my number one choice.”
“Lisa took amazing care of our kitty. She sent me some adorable photos that put my kids at ease (they missed her) and she even bought our kitty a toy. Additionally, Lisa accepted this case at the last minute as our previously scheduled sitter had an emergency. This was such a relief and I am really pleased with the whole experience.”
“I prefer to book with Angelina, especially on longer vacations because she does a great job. She reliable, always shows up, and does a little extra and thinks of small ways to help.”
“Mckayla did an amazing job watching my cat, Panda! She sent lots of pictures, played with her, and gave clear updates that made me feel at ease while I was on my cruise. Thank you again!”
About: I believe that pets are more than animals, they are also family. My priority is for them to be comfortable, healthy, well taken care of, and happy. I also have experience with giving medications such as oral, ear drops, and eye drops. Although this may sound a little random, I also speak Spanish for those who have pets that only understand that language. If your pet likes to sleep on the bed, I have no problem with that. I tend to enjoy the company anyway. I can house sit any day of the week/weekend. However, I do have another job that I go to: Monday-Friday. Other than that, I’m usually free. Before I go to work or anywhere, I make sure that I either walk my dogs, or at least take them outside the yard so they can do whatever they need to do. I also like to stay with them an hour or two before leaving, just because I like for them to have a little bit of cuddle or fun time. I also like to take them to the dog park to socialize them and for them to have their exercise. I usually try to keep them in a healthy diet but, if I do feed them human food, I always look up information to make sure if it’s healthy or not because, why should they miss out? They loves car rides as well, so I tend to bring them with me wherever they can. They’re my travel buddies. We also sometimes go chill at the beach, and whenever we do that, I always bring a bag of necessities such as toys, plenty of waters, their water bowls, their leash, and doggy bags. I sometimes bring a couple of their favorite treats or stop by a store to get something we can eat.
About: I’ve been around animals my entire life. I have had my own dogs now for 8 years, a lab and a golden. I am comfortable caring for dogs of all ages. I am recently separated from the Air Force, currently in school and staying at home with my two young children. I have a very open and flexible schedule, and my wife stays at home as well. I love spending time with dogs of all breeds and ages. I’ll be sure to keep your pets safe and follow any safety instructions you have.
About: I’ve had cats my entire life and caring for them has always come naturally to me. I’m the reliable go-to for family and friends when they need someone patient and experienced to care for their cats.
About: I'm available all day Monday and Tuesday most weeks to care for your pup while you're away. I've been a dog mom for the past year and I love it so much I wish I could get another! Now is not the right time for that so I figured, why not pet sit! I live next to a dog park where I take my puppy (he's 7 months) every day for at least 30minutes to an hour. I'll make sure to take lots of pictures and videos of your dog enjoying themselves on our walks along Freedom Parkway or while we're hanging out at Freedom Barkway, the dog park. Let me know all your dog's special needs and I will make sure to take care of them while you're away!
“Jessica did such a good watching Ollie!! She was extremely responsive and communicated all questions she had in a timely manner. Ollie had a great time and we will definitely be rebooking!”
“Rachael was wonderful with our 3 kitties while we were away for an entire week. She kept in contact with us and sent us pictures of each of them to let us know they were o.k. I felt very comfortable with Rachael and her family watching over our kitties. We would definitely book with her again!”
About: Hello, my name is Melanie! I've had dogs all my life both small and large. Over the past 12 years I have been pet sitting and dog walking for both friends and family. I am an experienced sitter who you can trust to take amazing care of your pup. I take any (and all) opportunities to snuggle and go on fun adventures with dogs. If you have an athletic or active dog we can do walks, swimming, even to a play date at the park. If your dog is less active, we can bring our activity level to where your dog is most happy and comfortable I am currently a SAHM so my schedule is open and very flexible 7 days a week to care for dog walks or drop in visits. I will be happy to provide photos and updates during walks/drop in visits. Any and all instructions you leave for me will be followed with the utmost care to keep your little buddy happy!!
About: I’m a dog trainer, reptile educator and small scale snake breeder (so I have experience caring for hatching snakes), and have fostered cats, dogs and reptiles. I have worked with animals since I was a small child. I’ve trained my own service dog and love training with young puppies and giving them a confident foundation. I regularly go bike joring with my own dog. I’ve always lived with cats and am very comfortable caring for them. I own many reptiles and am experienced with snakes and lizards, I’ve also worked with horses (rode competitively for 9 years and managed the care of four horses) and other farm animals. I’m not afraid of exotic animals like invertebrates and have some experience with them and with fish. I moved recently from Georgia and so my schedule is a little sporadic but free, I have a car to get around and can travel with animals easily. I regularly take hikes with my own dog, and have a car kennel for safe transport (the brand is Ruffland). I always double check doors are closed and locked as I had a dog when I was a kid who escaped because of a sitter. I follow instructions very carefully and treat every animal I interact with the way I’d like someone to treat my own pets. I keep pet reptiles and can feed and care for yours if need be.
About: My first pet was a stray cat that had her litter of kittens on a paper plate that my mom and I left out for her to eat off of, imagine our surprise! Cats are one of my favorite animals on Earth!
About: I have always had a love for animals! When I moved to Florida in 2005 is where I started my first job working at a private owned boarding and grooming facility. High school I was in FFA, I did some grooming and rabbit care! I worked at an animal hospital as a tech for two years recently. I enjoy building bonds with animals and giving them the care they deserve and more! Currently I am available Saturdays and Sundays. I am available for dog walks and drop in visits for potty breaks, play time, and/or feeding times! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are my highest priorities. For that reason, all pets are under direct supervision whenever they are in my care, regardless of whether we are in your home or mine. Fresh water is always available, and all meals are supervised to ensure your pet eats safely and comfortably. For walks, I kindly request that dogs wear a properly fitted harness rather than a collar whenever possible. Harnesses provide added safety and better control, helping protect both your pet and me during our outings. To provide the best care possible, please let me know about any behavioral traits or special needs, including: - Temperament and personality - Comfort level with people and other animals - Any fears, anxieties, or triggers - Medical conditions or current medications. For the safety of all pets in my care, I also require that your pet’s rabies vaccination is current. Thank you for trusting me with your furry family member. I look forward to providing them with safe, loving, and attentive care while you’re away.

“My wife and I were extremely happy with Tamara. At first we were a bit nervous leaving our dog with someone other than family that he knew but Tamara made us feel very comfortable. She updated us throughout the day and treated our boy as if he was part of her family and we couldn’t have been happier. Definitely recommend using her and we will for sure be using her services again!!”
“Joan was wonderful with our dog Bliss. She made sure she took a walk, gave her treats and belly rubs and was in contact with us throughout the entire day. She sent sweet photos that put our minds at ease and helped us to enjoy our day knowing our sweet girl was being cared for.”
“Fiorella and her family were great! She responded when I needed someone to take extra care of my puppy at the last minute. I can tell by all the photos she sent throughout the day that Smoke was so happy to be there with her family and other pups. She was responsive and made sure to give me updates regarding his current stomach issue. She was so attentive and noticed a small detail about my puppy that I forgot to mention about him. I felt comfortable all day with him there with her. I will be a returning customer! Highly recommend!”
About: Plenty of references with my regular customers that I can share. I’ve had dogs and cats my entire life and caring for animals has always been second nature to me.

Because I’m retired, I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time for walks, visits, playtime, and companionship.

About: I have been around animals my entire life and have experience caring for both dogs and cats. In addition to owning pets, I have pet sat for friends and family and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. My family is very pet-friendly, and my children love interacting with pets through playtime and affection while I provide all care and supervision. I am committed to ensuring every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I work from home and homeschool my children, which allows me to be available throughout the day for walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, and companionship. Our family spends most of our time at home, providing pets with plenty of attention and supervision. While my children participate in sports activities on some evenings, pets are never left unattended for extended periods, and I plan my schedule to ensure they receive consistent care, exercise, and affection. My flexible routine allows me to accommodate each pet’s individual needs and maintain their normal schedule as closely as possible. When caring for pets in my home, I focus on creating a safe, comfortable, and loving environment where they can feel relaxed and at ease. I follow each pet’s regular routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, exercise, potty breaks, medication administration (if needed), and plenty of playtime and affection. Because I work from home and homeschool my children, pets receive frequent attention, supervision, and companionship throughout the day. My goal is to make every pet feel like part of the family while ensuring they are safe, happy, and well cared for during their stay.

“Nalisha is great! She takes amazing pictures, the walks are always perfect and the pup is tired. From the jump she was super sweet, asking all the right questions, and of course the pup loves her. 10/10 recommend.”
“Sherry was amazing, very responsive, and responsibly priced. Not only did she provide photos and updates on my dog, she also notified me when she was in transit to my home to walk my dog.

About: 🐾 Your Pets Aren’t Just Pets — They’re Family! 🐾 Hi, I’m Sherri! Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I truly believe every pet deserves the same love, attention, and care I give my own. I spent 4.5 years working at a veterinary hospital and boarding facility, where I gained hands-on experience caring for all types of animals with different personalities, needs, and temperaments. I specialize in caring for large breeds, having been a Great Dane owner for over 10 years. I understand the unique needs of giant breeds — from their big personalities and gentle hearts to their exercise, comfort, and care requirements. Large dogs hold a special place in my heart, and I’m confident providing the patience, handling, and attention they deserve. I have experience with extended house and pet sitting, and my own home is a mini animal family! I currently share my life with a Great Dane named Dunkin, a rescue pup named Potato, a Siamese cat named Yodel, a bird named Yoo-Hoo, and a tortoise named Sam. My animals are my babies and are involved in my everyday life. Many of my pets are rescues and require extra patience, understanding, and TLC — something I provide naturally. Whether your pet needs walks, playtime, cuddles, medication assistance, special care, or simply a loving companion while you’re away, I’m happy to customize my services to fit their needs. My goal is for your pets to feel safe, loved, and spoiled just like they would at home. I’ve been told I take the best pictures 📸, and I love keeping pet parents updated with adorable photos and fun moments so you can feel connected while you’re apart. I’m located in Ruskin, available most weekends, and would love the opportunity to meet your furry (or feathered!) family member. Let’s get walking! 🐶🐾 — Sherri My schedule is currently very flexible. I have a standing commitment on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays from 11:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m. for a local dog walk, but I am available outside of those hours to accommodate your pet care needs. I also offer late-night walks and visits for clients who work overnight shifts or have nontraditional schedules, and I'm happy to work with you to create a schedule that best fits you and your pet. I offer both overnight stays in your home and drop-in visits, depending on your pet's needs. We can discuss the best option during our meet-and-greet to ensure you're comfortable and your pet receives the highest level of care. I treat every animal as if they were my own, providing them with love, patience, and attentive care. I am also clean, neat, and organized, and I take pride in respecting your home by leaving it just as I found it.
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs of all sizes and ages for 6 years! I’ve assisted with training puppies and rescues and have a passion for all parts of pet care, even the messy things! I’m currently a full time college student studying Pre-Vet which makes my schedule pretty hectic! I have 2-5 classes a day which are typically an hour, but anytime before, after, and in-between, I would love to spend it with our cuddly friends! This gives them the attention they need while also providing me a space to do some studying! Pets deserve as much consistency as possible while missing their loved ones! It’s my goal to tend to their needs whether it be low or high energy. Simple or extensive diets, I can do it!
About: I have been a pet owner for over 20 years. I understand that our pets are our family. I go above and beyond so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. What a typical day looks like: Morning (7 AM - 11 AM): Brisk morning walks to kickstart the day, followed by refreshing water refills and a quick paw wipe-down. Mid-Day (11 AM - 3 PM): Perfect for high-energy pups! I offer lunch-break potty visits, structured neighborhood walks, and backyard playtime. Late Afternoon/Evening (3 PM - 7 PM): Winding down the day with a steady evening walk, light socialization, and plenty of belly rubs before dinner.Flexible WFH Gaps: Because I work from home, I can easily adapt my schedule to match your dog's exact routine and medication needs. The Home Environment: We live in a quiet, peaceful neighborhood with very low traffic, making it ideal for stress-free, safe neighborhood walks. Outdoor Space: Our property features a dedicated yard perfect for secure, supervised outdoor playtime, sniffing, and leg stretching. Resident Pets: I have one sweet, elderly dog who loves to sleep and keeps entirely to themselves. Because of their senior status, I ensure all pet introductions are slow, controlled, and respectful of everyone's boundaries. Crate-Friendly House: We are a fully crate-friendly home. If your dog prefers or requires a crate for sleeping, feeding, or downtime, I can easily accommodate their routine to keep them feeling secure. Safety First: Your dog's well-being is my top priority. I never leave visiting pets unattended outdoors, and I maintain 100% focus on your pup during our entire time together.
About: My extensive professional training in animal handling and behavior sets me apart. While many sitters enjoy pets as a hobby, I have dedicated my career to their welfare. I am a National Animal Control Officer (Level II), which provides me with advanced training in safe animal handling for both dogs and cats, as well as emergency response protocols. My Special Skills Include: Certified Behavioral Knowledge: I hold a certification from Jackson Galaxy (since 2016), allowing me to manage anxiety and behavioral issues with a fear-free approach. Senior & Medical Care: Through my non-profit rescue work, I am highly skilled in caring for senior animals, including administering varied medications (injections, fluids, pills) and managing mobility issues. Trust & Reliability: I run a professional organization, so you can expect the highest level of communication, punctuality, and attention to detail. My schedule is entirely flexible because pet care is my professional focus. As the founder of a non-profit rescue, I have the autonomy to adjust my daily workload to ensure I am available for early mornings, critical medication times, and unexpected last-minute needs. Reliability is guaranteed. I care for every pet with the rigor of a professional rescuer and the heart of an advocate. Safety First: My background as a National Animal Control Officer (Level II) influences every decision I make. I am trained in risk assessment, meaning I proactively identify hazards (loose screens, toxic plants, escape routes) before they become problems. I am also fully trained in pet CPR and First Aid. Building Trust: Trust is built through consistency. Running a non-profit organization requires impeccable ethics and reliability. Whether in my home or yours, I adhere to strict feeding and medication schedules. A Low-Stress Environment: Using my Jackson Galaxy certification, I prioritize the pet's emotional well-being. I don't force interaction; instead, I use positive reinforcement and body language cues to build a bond. I am experienced in maintaining a sterile, healthy environment, ensuring that food bowls, litter boxes, and living areas are kept to rescue-grade standards of cleanliness.
About: I have experience with large and small dogs, cats, and exotics like reptiles (I own a bearded dragon). My home has pets if yours would like to play with mine, but mine are also crate trained if yours need their own space! I work from home mostly, so your pets will be supervised while I am with them. I am available and able to do walks, potty breaks and plenty of snuggle and playtime. I have a fenced yard and three friendly dogs to play with yours if they would like. Otherwise mine can be crated and come out on a rotation so yours can have personalized attention.
About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was 10 years old. We had lots of liters of boxers. I also have my cats! I’ve never grew up in a household that never had a pet. I’ve had the pleasure of taking care of numerous fur babies. I love meeting new animals and bonding with them. My schedule is open! If at anytime you’re in a crunch, I will do my best to work with you. I want to help anyone that is in need to tend to your fur babies. It is my duty to take care of your pets. I treat any dog as if they were my own. I understand the love that you have for your pets as they are your “fur babies”.I take watching your animals very seriously. I will stay in contact with you on a daily basis to give you the peace of mind that your fur baby is in great hands.
About: I'm available all day Monday and Tuesday most weeks to care for your pup while you're away. I've been a dog mom for the past year and I love it so much I wish I could get another! Now is not the right time for that so I figured, why not pet sit! I live next to a dog park where I take my puppy (he's 7 months) every day for at least 30minutes to an hour. I'll make sure to take lots of pictures and videos of your dog enjoying themselves on our walks along Freedom Parkway or while we're hanging out at Freedom Barkway, the dog park. Let me know all your dog's special needs and I will make sure to take care of them while you're away!
About: I believe that pets are more than animals, they are also family. My priority is for them to be comfortable, healthy, well taken care of, and happy. I also have experience with giving medications such as oral, ear drops, and eye drops. Although this may sound a little random, I also speak Spanish for those who have pets that only understand that language. If your pet likes to sleep on the bed, I have no problem with that. I tend to enjoy the company anyway. I can house sit any day of the week/weekend. However, I do have another job that I go to: Monday-Friday. Other than that, I’m usually free. Before I go to work or anywhere, I make sure that I either walk my dogs, or at least take them outside the yard so they can do whatever they need to do. I also like to stay with them an hour or two before leaving, just because I like for them to have a little bit of cuddle or fun time. I also like to take them to the dog park to socialize them and for them to have their exercise. I usually try to keep them in a healthy diet but, if I do feed them human food, I always look up information to make sure if it’s healthy or not because, why should they miss out? They loves car rides as well, so I tend to bring them with me wherever they can. They’re my travel buddies. We also sometimes go chill at the beach, and whenever we do that, I always bring a bag of necessities such as toys, plenty of waters, their water bowls, their leash, and doggy bags. I sometimes bring a couple of their favorite treats or stop by a store to get something we can eat.
About: I have always had a love for animals! When I moved to Florida in 2005 is where I started my first job working at a private owned boarding and grooming facility. High school I was in FFA, I did some grooming and rabbit care! I worked at an animal hospital as a tech for two years recently. I enjoy building bonds with animals and giving them the care they deserve and more! Currently I am available Saturdays and Sundays. I am available for dog walks and drop in visits for potty breaks, play time, and/or feeding times! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are my highest priorities. For that reason, all pets are under direct supervision whenever they are in my care, regardless of whether we are in your home or mine. Fresh water is always available, and all meals are supervised to ensure your pet eats safely and comfortably. For walks, I kindly request that dogs wear a properly fitted harness rather than a collar whenever possible. Harnesses provide added safety and better control, helping protect both your pet and me during our outings. To provide the best care possible, please let me know about any behavioral traits or special needs, including: - Temperament and personality - Comfort level with people and other animals - Any fears, anxieties, or triggers - Medical conditions or current medications. For the safety of all pets in my care, I also require that your pet’s rabies vaccination is current. Thank you for trusting me with your furry family member. I look forward to providing them with safe, loving, and attentive care while you’re away.

“Nicholas was awesome with Zeus. For the 2-1/2 weeks we were gone he kept us infor.ed and sent pictures frequently. I realized the day after we left that I had missed Zeus' heart worm protection and Nicholas went out of his way to pick up a dose at my vet. We highly recommend Nicholas and will absolutely use his services again”
“My dog had only stayed with my FIL when we went away but he passed away this year and we were stressed not knowing who to leave him with. We interviewed multiple people and chose Lexi and her sweet family. She was so great at keeping in touch throughout our 2 week trip. He was so well taken care of and they went up and beyond to accommodate our schedule when we had traveling issues. Im certain he cant wait for our next adventure away where he can go stay and play. Lexi and her family are the best and we are thankful to have found them :)”
“Alyssa was a great and quick communicator. She helped with my dog's medications, which were a few of them. It sounded like Klyo had a great time and had a chance to interact with other dogs for a change. Will definitely use again when needed.”
“Glen was absolutely wonderful with my dog, Jordi! From the very start, he communicated clearly and consistently, which gave me a lot of peace of mind. He sent me pictures every day, so I always knew how Jordi was doing. I especially appreciated that Glen was able to give Jordi her epilepsy medication on time without any issues—something that is very important to me. Jordi was not only well cared for but also had such a fun time! She loved playing with Glen’s dogs and spending hours in her favorite spot outside in the yard. It was clear she was happy, comfortable, and treated like family. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience, and I would absolutely recommend Glen to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and attentive sitter. Jordi can’t wait to go back!”
“Jackelyn was excellent. We did a visit prior to his stay. She was so warm and welcoming to both I and Russell. He took to her immediately. She allowed him to run freely in the house. I received pictures and updates daily. Jackelyn actually taught Russell to sit and lye down. We’re back together and he is kind of moping around. I’ve already talked about anther upcoming stay. I believe he’s found his second home. Thank you so much Jackelyn. 💕💕💕🐶🐩🐩”
“Jessica was amazing!!! I nervously left my chihuahua and her three 5 week old puppies with Jessica while I was on vacation near her. She kept them safe, socialized them and generally treated them like they were her own. She was organized and helpful. Jessica kept me up to date with information about how they were doing and sent regular photos and videos. I highly recommend Jessica as a sitter.”

“Lara took very good care of our doodles while we were away. She sent daily updates with pictures. Maude and Murphy looked like they enjoyed their stay, playing with other pups and barking at the ponies. We appreciate Lara taking good care of Maude and Murphy for us. We felt that they were in good hands while they were with her, which really put our minds at ease while we were out of town. Lara will definitely be our sitter for any future travels. Thank you Lara.”
“Brian and his family were absolutely amazing with my dog Kobe! Kobe has some anxiety being away from us and Brian made him feel right at home! We were sent lots of pictures and updates as well. Kobe went on walks and got lots of outside time. I would HIGHLY recommend Brian as he really treats your pets like they are his own. Will definitely be using Brian again!”
“Eve did a great job caring for our dog, Jake. She obviously is very experienced in caring for dogs and understands and knows how to deal with their behaviors. We also appreciated Eve sending us pictures and updates on Jake over the several days he was with her. Highly recommend Eve to care for other’s pets.”
