She kept us updated with photos and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was obvious that Luna wasn’t just being watched…she was genuinely cared for and loved. When we picked Luna up, she was happy, relaxed, and clearly had a wonderful time. It’s such a relief to find someone trustworthy who treats your dog like family. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for exceptional care for their furry family member. Thank you for taking such amazing care of Luna!”

“Maxine was fantastic with our baby boy Rambo! We booked last minute stay because we wanted to provide our other baby with one last peaceful weekend before we said goodbye as she crossed over the rainbow bridge. Maxine knew this and was so compassionate in her communication with us and kept our spirits high by sending the most hilarious pictures of Rambo in tons of different costumes and scenarios. We’re so grateful that we found her and had her as our sitter, she made a very difficult time in our lives much easier by taking such great care of Rambo, which allowed us to give our sweet baby girl the best weekend send off.”

About: Hii, my name is Stephany! I am a senior at the University of South Florida majoring in Environmental Science & Policy. I have many years of experience with dogs, cats, birds, and rabbits. I have volunteered before at the Humane Society of Tampa Bay and at a local animal rehabilitation center in Orlando. I have experience with responsibilities such as feeding, walking, cleaning, and providing love and companionship. I have also have experience in administering special diets to animals and enrichment.

About: Throughout my entire life I’ve taken care of all types of animals big and small, from neighbors Great Danes to family rabbits, I’m able to handle animals of all shapes and sizes and look forward to meeting your pet no matter the animal! ♡ I do work part time at Outback Steakhouse and also do pet care to help pay for all of my bills due to this I’m more busy on the weekends and tend to struggle booking around then but I will do my best to accommodate and be flexible for your fur and furless babies!!! In the past I have had animals that were both inside and outside as well as animals who were muzzle, and crate trained meaning I have experience handling both as well as experience walking a variety of dogs. Currently I live with my cat Nugget who I handle all daily care for!

About: I’ve always been a huge animal lover and have experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages and personalities, including puppies, senior dogs, anxious pets, dogs that need medication, and dogs with seizure disorders. I also have a dog child that is a mini Goldendoodle, Clover, so I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pet. I’ll treat your pets like my own and make sure they get lots of love, attention, and care while you’re away. I work from home while going to school full time, so I have a pretty flexible schedule that lets me give pets lots of attention throughout the day. Whether it’s potty breaks, walks, playtime, medication, or just keeping them company, I’m happy to stick to their routine. I truly enjoy caring for animals, and my goal is to make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. ** I will consider long term pet/house sitting by request ** I believe pets do best when they can stick to their normal routine. Whether I’m caring for them in my home or yours, I’ll follow your instructions closely, from feeding and walks to medications, crate time, playtime, and any other preferences you have to help them feel comfortable and at home.

“Absolutely amazing! Natalie did more than asked and followed instructions perfectly. She was very communitive while I was away for a whole week. She played with kitties and they loved her!! Recommend.”
“I’ll never stop giving Bekah 5 stars. She goes above and beyond every time and makes me feel so much better about leaving my senior cat. I’m so grateful for her!”
“What can I say, Jordan is by far the best pet sitter! My Olive can't wait to have her cat sit again. Jordan is very responsive, very prompt with timing, and never shorts on the time spent. I've never had so many photos of my Olive before, it felt like I was with Olive even from another country. I highly recommend Jordan's services!”
“Samantha was A-MAZ-ING! One of our two cats had a health issue while we were gone. Samantha contacted me about taking her to the vet, and she came back for an additional visit to get my cat to the vet at the correct time. She had great communication with me throughout, and added extra visits to accommodate the medication schedule the vet prescribed. She did a great job giving the cat her medicine and giving both cats love and attention (brushing, petting, special treats) throughout the week that we were gone. I would not hesitate to book Smanatha again.”
“Sophia is amazing!! She did a wonderful job taking care of my cat Oreo. Oreo is a loving cat also and looked forward to Sophia’s daily visits. He would start meowing before she could even open the door. She cleaned up his litter that he tracked through the house and ensured he got a full 30 minutes of playtime. She also checked that he had fresh water daily. I would definitely use her again if I’m out of town.”
“Awesome communication, friendly, gave my cat time to adjust to the new environment and did everything that was asked. 12/10 know exactly who to contact incase of need future sitting! Perfection”
“I’m convinced our cat thinks she is on vacation when she gets to go to Beth’s house. This is the second time we have left our cat with Beth and she got to stay for 2 weeks while we were out of country. Our cat is an old girl set in her ways and loves being around people.. She hates sleeping alone at night. So she goes to sleep over at Beth’s house (with no other animals there on our request so it’s less stress on the cat). Beth sends me pics daily which I love and is also mindful to check what frequency we want pictures. Our cat gets all the love, snuggles, treats and time on the porch she could hope for! Beth is very helpful and communicative coordinating handing off the animal too. This time, because of our schedules, she came to our home to get the cat for us a day after we left. We’re big fans of Beth’s and highly recommend her for your pets. She watches doggos & probably other animals too!”

I'm so glad I found him! He is truly a gift.”

He is very reliable with following routines and keeping Malcolm safe during his stay. I will surely use Christopher’s services again. I recommend him to everyone.”
“J’akeecia watched my dog while I was out of town and did an awesome job. Super easy to communicate with, sent me updates without me even asking. She was super reliable, and took great care of my pup. Pics walks, zero stress. Definitely recommend!”
“Brian was awesome with our Dog. He consistently provided us with feedback and updates of our pet’s stay and always provided us with pictures and videos. He made our pet feel safe and at home and us feel at ease that our dog was in great care! We needed another day for our dog to stay and he was very accommodating and open to helping us the best he could. We definitely will be booking with him again for all of our boarding needs!! Book with Brian, you won’t be disappointed!”
“Best experience! My dog had a great time she made it easy for him to settle in. Send lots of photos and even provided a bath bc she saw him itching!! Definitely rebooking!!! And you guys should book too!!!!”
“Hillary was absolutely wonderful! She watched my dog while I was away on a trip- and made sure to check in frequently with updates (cute photos and videos). Marty came back very sleepy, having played/socialized for the entire time I was away. Couldn’t have asked for anything better and will definitely be booking for my next trip!”
“We first did a meet and greet with Rachel and her dog, Zeplin. The dogs were just fine together. I would definitley board again with Rachel. She was communicative and sent pictures of my dog doing just fine every day. She even worked with me on my pick up schedule since my flight was late getting back into town. Very nice!!”
“Celine and her fiancé were absolutely amazing. Above and beyond. Felt so comfortable leaving my small kitten and puppy in her/their care. 10/10 would recommend. She’s soooo sweet, attentive, caring and communicative. Cannot leave a glowing enough review. Thank you so much!!!”
“Grateful that Hailey was willing to take Leo for 5 nights on relatively short notice. Leo was 10-11 months old and a rehome when we adopted him about 16 months ago, and this was his first stay away from our home, so you can imagine I carefully reviewed sitters on Rover. Hailey was my number one choice. She encouraged a meet and greet, which I also think is essential. Hailey listened carefully as I described Leo and his quirks. She gave Leo the space and time needed for him to settle in and warm up to her and she was quite prompt with meeting times and dog walks. Leo seemed quite content when I picked him up. I'd love to board Leo with Hailey again when the need arises.”
