“Kristin was excellent! Our long time dog sitter moved and I was nervous leaving my dogs with anyone else, but very quickly I knew they were in good hands. Constant updates and they had a great time staying for two weeks 😊 I would absolutely send them back if she would have them!”
“Maxine was great with Owen. She would send picture updates and even has an app that allows you to check in on your pup via camera. Extremely convenient, flexible, and responsible. Highly recommend!”
“WOW! I cannot stress enough how happy we are that we found Cece. She was so sweet and kind and super communicative during Cash’s stay. Her two pups got along great with Cash, and he clearly had a blast during his stay with her. She was also very through when we arrived since it was his first stay with her and showed me the beautiful back yard Cash would have to play in during his stay and made sure he was secure and I was comfortable with him being in her home. It was such a great experience, I seriously cannot recommend Cece enough. Cash even came home with a personalized stocking, which he loved! You can tell she truly loves taking care of her clients pups!!”

“Emma was absolutely stellar taking care of our boy Moky. Always kept me up to date on how everything that was going on and I couldn't ask for a better person to look after Moky.”
“Valerie cared for our pets Ruby, Zeus,Zoya and Sunny- a dog and 3 cats. We also have an aquarium. She also fed our fish. Our senior dog Ruby had several indoor poop and pee accidents indoor in between visits much more than usual. Valerie cleaned up each time she came for drop-in visits. Ruby is usually very anxious when we return from trips but this time she didn’t seem anxious at all. Will recommend Valerie.”
About: I’m a true cat lover who has grown up with cats since I was very little. Caring for them has always been part of my life, so I understand their personalities, their routines, and how important it is for them to feel safe and comfortable in their own home. I genuinely enjoy spending time with cats, playing with them, giving them attention, and making sure they feel loved while their owner is away. I’m very responsible, patient, and attentive to their needs, whether that means feeding them on schedule, cleaning the litter box, or simply keeping them company. Your cat’s comfort and well-being are my priority, and I will treat them with the same care and affection as if they were my own. 🐱❤️
“This was my first time leaving my cat with someone new, and I was really stressed. But she took great care of him, kept me updated with pictures, and made my last-minute trip so much easier. Thank you!!”
“We are so grateful for Tina and the exemplary care she provides our fur family. If you are looking for an excellent pet sitter, we highly recommend Tina.”
“Aubrey was fantastic, she's a great communicator and so clearly loves animals! My kitties warmed up to her quickly and were very calm and happy when I returned home. Will definitely rebook!”
“Bekah is so great with my kitties. She sends so many pictures and updates, trims their nails, gets their daily playtime in, and cares for them as if they were her own. I love reading her daily messages because she gets their personalities down to a tee and I genuinely feel like I’m home with them.”
“Kelsey was so great! She is always quick to respond and is so sweet. My cat was so happy when I got home, I’m glad to know she had great company while I was away. I would recommend Kelsey to anyone!”
“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 took great care of Sheba. Was on time and provided details of what was going on. She was even able to extend the time I needed her on a last minute notice. I will definitely use her to take care of Sheba and would highly recommend her to others”
About: With years of hands on experience and a true love for cats, I understand their unique personalities and needs. I provide personalized care, from playtime to feeding and cuddles, ensuring your cat feels safe, happy, and loved while you're away. My attention to detail and gentle approach make me the perfect choice to keep your feline friend comfortable and content.
“Aliyah was so kind and attentive to my cats while i was out of the country for nearly 2 weeks. My cats are both seniors, one with slight medical issues and she made sure to give him extra special care which I appreciated so much. She provided great details and pictures on every visit and followed the care instructions perfectly. She even helped with my isopods/bugs care which she was not obligated to do but she was more than willing to help with. I will definitely use her again in the future and would absolutely recommend her as a pet sitter.”
“I’ve booked Rachel to watch my cats multiple times and she’s always been great! She leaves updates for every visit and when my cat needed to take oral medication, she was able to administer it without issue. Would highly recommend her to watch your pets!”
“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!”

“Amanda and Matthew were excellent! When I dropped Xoey off, Amanda was welcoming and invited me to see her home where Xoey would be staying. Their pup is just the sweetest and got along great with mine! I could tell they provided great care to my baby and I wouldn't hesitate to book with them again next time we're in the Tampa area!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats for 18 years, and I keep my Rover bookings intentionally small so every pet gets plenty of individual attention rather than feeling like one of many. I’m home throughout most of the day, which allows me to provide frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, companionship, and a routine that can be adjusted to what each pet is used to at home. I’m especially patient with dogs who need extra time to settle into a new environment. I’m comfortable following detailed feeding schedules, crate routines, and other care instructions, and I send plenty of photo updates so you know how your pet is doing while you’re away. For boarding and daycare, dogs should be comfortable sharing a home with my dog, Zoey, and our three cats. I also offer walks and drop-in visits for dogs and cats, including feeding, fresh water, litter box care, walks, playtime, and companionship. My goal is to give each pet dependable, individualized care that feels as familiar and low-stress as possible—and give their parents peace of mind while they’re away. I'm home throughout most of the day, which gives me plenty of flexibility for potty breaks, walks, playtime, meals, and companionship throughout your pet's stay. My schedule is generally flexible, and I'm happy to work with your pet's usual routine whenever possible. I just ask that drop-off, pick-up, and visit times are communicated in advance so I can plan accordingly and make sure each pet gets the attention they deserve. In my home, pets are treated like part of the family while still following the routines and boundaries they're used to at home. I keep my bookings limited so I can give each pet plenty of individual attention and closely monitor how they're settling in. I have a fully fenced yard for supervised potty breaks and outdoor time, and I supervise interactions between guest dogs and my own pets. Everyone has space to separate, relax, and decompress when needed, and I never expect animals to interact simply because they're sharing the same home. I follow each pet's normal feeding schedule, crate routine, walking routine, and other care instructions as closely as possible. I also pay close attention to behavior and comfort level so I can adjust their environment if they seem overwhelmed or need more space. For walks and drop-in visits, I'm respectful of your home and follow your pet's usual routine, including feeding, fresh water, litter box care, walks, playtime, and companionship. My priority is keeping pets safe, comfortable, and cared for in a way that works for them, rather than expecting every animal to fit the same routine.
“Samuel was extremely flexible with pickup and drop off, which made everything so easy and simple. Thank you again for taking such good care of Frénki. I really appreciate it!”
“Crystal is a true animal lover and our pup is happy to see her. He’s always tired when he gets home so he seems to get plenty of play and exercise :)”
“Matt made me feel completely at ease from the start. Luna was well cared for, and I could tell she was comfortable and happy. Communication was great, and I truly appreciate the peace of mind. I’m looking forward to booking with him regularly!”
About: I’ve been my whole life around animals, I know how important they are and how they are part of the family, play time and lots of fun games are what makes the difference. I work from home so it works great! My daily activities revolve around loving furry little creatures. Weekly routine is based on their needs and care My home is a safe space for pets, lots of space to run and yard is fenced for safety, no extra guests around to prevent any surprises
About: As a lifelong big guy and animal lover, I bring calm, confident, consistent care to pets of all sizes and ages with experience with men's, mobility, grooming, and affection routines. I care for my own fur children but my current work doesn't require my attention for more than couple hours a day so I am very open to scheduling arrangements around any time frame. My girls thrive in a calm and consistent environment so that's exactly what I try my best to provide. I prioritize safety at all times, keeping steady routines, closely monitor behavior, and always using pet-safe products. I am always mindful of entrances (mostly not to hit my head) leashes, and feeding times, and I'll never leave pets unattended. I like to build trust with animals through quiet presence, patience, and clear intentions communicated. My goal is to make your animal companion feel secure, comfortable, and cared for like family.
“We were going to a show in Tampa and our pup gets anxious with storms so we dropped her off with Dawn while we went to the show. The show was longer than expected and Dawn was very kind and watched Nala later than the agreed upon time. She is a great communicator and very kind. Highly recommend!”
About: I've had dogs all my life and gone through extensive dog training as well as being a foster mom for the Southeast Beagle Rescue. I currently have a beagle named Riley that I adopted through the Humane Society and was unfortunately one of the 4000 Envigo beagles that were rescued. He loves playing with other dogs and is very social. I work from home, which gives me time to spend with your dog. This also makes drop off and pick up convenient for everyone. I also have a two Dog maximum limit. About my home/services: I live in a cozy condo I own in South Tampa with a fenced in backyard. I am fine with dogs on the couch and bed. I have experience with older dogs, special needs animals and administering medication. Expect a lot of pictures and videos of your dog having fun! I require a meet and greet. This way you and your dog will be more comfortable when you leave them in my care since it will not be the first time we have met when you drop them off leading to less stress when you leave. Criteria: Activity level low to medium. Absolutely no puppies. No dogs that bark at everything (unless someone knocks at the door) or dogs with separation anxiety. We look forward to meeting you. 🐶 I work from home, which gives me time to spend with your dog. This also makes drop off and pick up convenient for everyone. Drop off and pick up times are from 8 AM to 9 PM. I have a fenced in backyard. Dogs are allowed on the bed and couch. Feel free to bring their bed or anything else that makes them comfortable. Whatever your rules are, they are the rules here so if they aren't allowed on furniture...no problem.
About: I provide loving, reliable pet sitting tailored to each animal’s needs. Whether it’s dogs, cats, or birds, I treat your pets like family, ensuring they’re happy, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m currently a hairstylist who makes my own schedule and I have a lot of free time. What better way than to spend my free time caring for animals! I make sure to create a safe, calm environment whether I’m at your home or mine. I follow your pet’s routine closely feeding, playtime, bathroom breaks, and lots of attention. I keep an eye on their behavior and comfort, giving them love and care so they feel relaxed and happy while you’re away.
“Pamela was so incredibly helpful by taking my little buddy last minutes notice. She sent tons of fun photo updates. I will definitely recommend her and am so glad I have a new sitter I can count on when I’m in need.”
“My boys had such a blast while they were there, I could tell they were tired when I picked them up, and they were already trying to go back in when we were leaving!! It’s always so hard to find a sitter who sends you thoughtful updates and cute pictures, but I am so happy with how their visit went. Thank you so much to Qian and her family for taking care of our babies!!”
“Natali & KJ were AWESOME! This was my first time using a service like this for daycare, and I couldn’t be happier. My dog is reactive and requires a special touch, which he received, better than I could have expected. The updates and pictures throughout the day plus “report card” after were so appreciated. I will absolutely rebook. Thank you!”
“I was visit from out of town for a medical conference. I couldn’t bring my dog to the conference. Laura was so understanding and kind. She understood I was not going to be a repeat customer. However she stepped up to help me and watch Peaches. She gave her medicine too.”

About: I treat every pet like family and take the time to learn their unique personality, routine, and needs. I’m dependable, patient, and love keeping owners updated with photos and messages so they always know their pet is happy, safe, and well cared for. Pet care is something I truly enjoy and naturally make time for every day. Since I have a flexible schedule, I can give pets the attention, love, and consistency they deserve. I love going on walks, playing, cuddling, and making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and happy while their family is away. I know how much pets mean to their owners, so I treat every animal with the same patience, affection, and care that I would want for my own. My goal is for both pets and their owners to feel completely at ease, knowing they’re in loving and dependable hands. I care for every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their family is away. I always follow each owner’s routine for feeding, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and any special instructions because I know consistency helps pets feel secure. I’m very active and love being outdoors. I walk my own dog every day, usually around the Riverwalk and Bayshore, and we average about 4 miles a day. Because of that, I’m happy caring for dogs that enjoy long walks, exercise, and plenty of playtime, while also understanding that some pets simply want companionship, cuddles, and a calm environment. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I make sure they receive lots of attention, affection, exercise, and regular updates so their owners can have peace of mind knowing their pet is happy and well cared for.

About: Hi, I’m Geilynn. I bring six years of experience as a Rover sitter, along with a lifetime of caring for both cats and dogs. I grew up with two dogs and adopted my cat, Mila, when she was just six weeks old, giving me firsthand experience with young pets and their unique needs. I’m comfortable caring for kittens, puppies, senior pets, and animals with shy, anxious, or high-energy personalities. I can follow detailed feeding routines, clean litter boxes, administer basic medication, and provide walks, playtime, affection, or quiet companionship based on each pet’s preferences. As a pet parent myself, I understand how important it is to find someone dependable and attentive. I’ll treat your pets like family, respect their routines, and send plenty of photos and updates so you can relax while you’re away. My flexible schedule allows me to accommodate morning, afternoon, and evening visits around your pet’s usual routine. Whether your dog is ready for a fun walk or your cat is happiest enjoying playtime and cuddles at home, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of personalized attention.

Dogs can enjoy walks, playtime, fresh water, meals, medication, and plenty of attention. Cats receive fresh food and water, litter-box care, medication, gentle playtime, and affection on their terms. During every visit, I’ll carefully check doors, windows, water bowls, and favorite hiding spots, then send you photos and updates for peace of mind. I’m also happy to bring in your mail and water your plants while you’re away, so you can return to happy pets and a well-cared-for home.

About: Growing up, I’ve always been and loved being around dogs, whether they were my neighbors, friends, or my own! I have years of experience taking care of pups of all sizes, and i’m a proud chocolate lab/pitbull mix owner! Before graduating college, I used to volunteer at the humane society every month, which is where I adopted my own, Cooper! I am currently working part-time, and available during the week, but can still pup sit on the weekends if necessary! My schedule is very flexible!! I love long dog walks to stay active, and I do have a lab that loves other dogs, but prefer to pup sit at the clients’ houses
About: 🐾 Meet & greets with new pets 🐾 Photo & video updates while you’re away 🐾 Lots of walks, playtime & cuddles 🐾 Flexible weekday + weekend availability 🐾 Experienced with both dogs AND cats Hi! I’m Whitney, a student at HCC and a huge animal lover. Back home in Pittsburgh, I have 3 dogs and a cat, and one of the hardest parts about being away at school is honestly how much I miss having my pets around. That’s a huge reason I wanted to start pet sitting. I get to spend time with animals again while also giving someone else peace of mind knowing their pet is being loved and cared for. ☺️ I know pets aren’t just pets; they’re part of your family. I would want someone caring for my own animals to be patient, responsible, gentle, and actually excited to spend time with them, and that’s exactly how I plan to treat yours. I don’t want to just come over, feed your pet, and leave. I want them to actually feel comfortable with me. Whether your pet is super playful and wants to run around, loves long walks, is shy and needs a little extra time to warm up, or would rather spend the whole visit cuddled up on the couch, I’m happy to follow their personality and make the experience as comfortable as possible. I’m also more than happy to send you photos, videos, and updates while you’re away because I know how reassuring it is to actually see that your pet is happy and doing well. You’ll never have to sit there wondering what they’re doing or whether they’re okay. My goal is for you to feel completely comfortable leaving your pet with me and for your pet to feel safe, happy, loved, and cared for like they’re one of my own. 🩷 And honestly… since I miss my own pets so much, yours may end up getting a little spoiled with attention. 🤭 Pet Care Experience I’ve been around animals for years and have hands-on experience caring for my own 3 dogs and cat back home in Pittsburgh. Having that many pets definitely teaches you that every animal has their own personality, habits, likes, dislikes, and routine. I’m comfortable with everyday pet care including feeding, refreshing water, walking, playtime, bathroom breaks, cleaning up after pets, giving lots of attention, and keeping up with their normal routine. I understand that some pets are energetic and want to play constantly, while others may be nervous around someone new or just prefer relaxing and getting affection. I’m patient and happy to let your pet warm up to me! I’ll always follow whatever instructions you leave for me because I know how important consistency is, especially when their owner is away. If your pet has a certain feeding time, favorite walking route, favorite toy, bedtime routine, or little habit that makes them comfortable, I want to know about it! More than anything, I’ll make sure your pet receives plenty of attention, supervision, affection, and companionship while they’re with me! 😁 My Schedule 🐾 I’m currently a student at HCC, so I have a pretty open and flexible schedule! On weekdays, I’m usually available anytime from around 1:30 PM onward, which gives me plenty of time for afternoon walks, drop-ins, feeding, playtime, or just keeping your pet company while you’re away! ☺️ My weekends are even more flexible—I’m available pretty much anytime throughout the day, so I can easily work around your pet’s normal routine and schedule. Whether they need an early walk, some afternoon playtime, dinner and a potty break, or extra company later in the day, I’m happy to help! I know pets are happiest when they can stick to the routine they’re used to, so I’ll always do my best to work around their normal feeding, walking, and potty schedule rather than making them adjust to mine. I’m also happy to discuss specific times with you beforehand so we can figure out what works best for you and your pet. 🩷 Safety, Trust & Environment 🐾 Your pet’s safety is something I take seriously. Before caring for them, I’ll make sure I know about any medications, allergies, health concerns, triggers, fears, or behaviors I should be aware of so I can care for them properly and avoid anything that might make them stressed or uncomfortable. I’ll always make sure doors and gates are secure, collars and harnesses are fitted properly, and leashes are fully attached before heading outside. I’ll also stay aware of traffic, other animals, and anything around us that could put your pet in an unsafe situation. If your pet stays with me, I do live with three roommates who all love animals and are comfortable having pets around. I’ll make sure everyone respects your pet’s space and any boundaries you give me, and if your pet is shy or needs a quieter environment, I’ll make sure they have the space they need to relax. I’m also careful about things pets could get into around the home, like food, trash, medications, or anything else that could be harmful. Before leaving, I’ll double-check that everything is secure and that your pet is safe and settled. If anything unexpected happens or I notice something concerning, I’ll contact you right away. I’d always rather ask and be extra careful than assume when it comes to someone else’s pet. 🩷
About: My husband and I had a German shepherd for 13 years that we recently said goodbye to and have taken care of dogs/cats of all ages for friends and family. Great with seniors and big dogs. My husband grew up with 5 dogs in his household of all different breeds. Can administer medication and help with training if needed! I work from home twice a week and my husband is fully remote so between the two of us we will be home with your pup all day to watch them closely and ensure they are never alone. We live in a small pet friendly apartment in a walkable and pet friendly neighborhood. We have dog toys, enrichment toys, and dogs beds in the home but please bring your own if your pet prefers! We took our dog everywhere with us and know all the pet-friendly areas should your dog prefer spending most of their time outdoors.
About: Hey, welcome to my profile. First thing first, I have a cat in my home. To begin, let me tell you why I am on Rover. My love for cats has been present ever since I was a child. It would be nice to have a little company at home since I live alone, dogs are welcome as well. Before booking let's set a meet and greet. Living my best life in Downtown Miami. Currently studying full time, not employed at the moment. I am flexible with the stays, you are in good hands. I live on an apartment, small and good location for dogs and cats. Send me a list of your dog care and I’ll make sure it happens :)

Their safety, comfort, and well-being always come first, and I’ll make sure they receive plenty of love, attention, and personalized care while you’re away.
About: I treat every pet like family and take the time to learn their unique personality, routine, and needs. I’m dependable, patient, and love keeping owners updated with photos and messages so they always know their pet is happy, safe, and well cared for. Pet care is something I truly enjoy and naturally make time for every day. Since I have a flexible schedule, I can give pets the attention, love, and consistency they deserve. I love going on walks, playing, cuddling, and making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and happy while their family is away. I know how much pets mean to their owners, so I treat every animal with the same patience, affection, and care that I would want for my own. My goal is for both pets and their owners to feel completely at ease, knowing they’re in loving and dependable hands. I care for every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their family is away. I always follow each owner’s routine for feeding, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and any special instructions because I know consistency helps pets feel secure. I’m very active and love being outdoors. I walk my own dog every day, usually around the Riverwalk and Bayshore, and we average about 4 miles a day. Because of that, I’m happy caring for dogs that enjoy long walks, exercise, and plenty of playtime, while also understanding that some pets simply want companionship, cuddles, and a calm environment. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I make sure they receive lots of attention, affection, exercise, and regular updates so their owners can have peace of mind knowing their pet is happy and well cared for.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I can remember. Many people I know, don’t fail to notice how caring, gentle, and playful I am with not only pets but with everyone else as-well. I have experienced dogs who are old, anxious, energetic, weak, shy, lovey, and everything in between. Since I was two, I would take care of my childhood dog as if he were my own baby. I’m currently attending college classes and as of right now have extra time to make money and try new things! I am available everyday except Tuesdays or Thursdays! I live in a gated apartment, that has a walking trail within. There is lots of greenery and sometimes other dogs around. I also live 8 minutes away from a dog park where I spend lots of my time walking or running. As far as being in your home, I will abide by the rules and follow what I am being told, in terms for what is best for the dog and everyone else. I will also make the experience fun and your pet will be in great hands.
About: Hello! I am a dog mom of 2 ( pitty and mixed hound). Over the years I have personally cared for turtles, birds, dogs and geckos. I truly believe pets are our best friend and apart of the family and for over 15 years i have dedicated myself to ensuring they get the love they give to us. From dogs and felines to amphibians and our friends that fly, I have had the privilege of being entrusted with their care. Whether big or small I'm here for it all. I am currently working full time however I do work from home and can work from anywhere making my hours very flexible. I am also available during the weekends. I will have direct supervision of your pets at all times especially during walks and let outs. My goal is make sure our friends are as comfortable as they can be while you are away. So leave their favorite toys and treats and I'll bring the snuggles!
“Aubrey, thanks for being so sweet with Halo. We really appreciate that you give us from your time to take care of him last minute. Thanks for the communication and the professionalism. Hopefully Halo can see you again. God bless”
About: I have grown up with pets my entire life! I have taken care of and loved very old and very young animals. I am responsible, attentive, and patient. I am a hard working college student who has lots of availability and will always make sure your pets are fed, relieved, and loved. It is extremely important to me to keep your pets, myself, and your home safe. I am in college until 12:30pm Monday-Thursday, and I usually work evenings on the weekends. I am able to accept last minute booking requests most of the time! Safety is very important to me, please make me aware of any medications or health precautions. I want to be informed of any extra steps I should take to keep myself, your home, and your pet safe!
“Nigel carried my "baby" home the other day because she couldn't make it back on her own. He let me know and checked back in with between visits to see if she was ok. I knew Nigel was special since he began helping me with my dog but he went above and beyond, carrying a 65 pound pit bull home instead of dragging her and using harsh commands. I'm so glad I found him! He is truly a gift.”
“Celine has walked our golden doodle a few times now and she has been extremely kind and accommodating. She is always flexible if plans have changed and our doodle loves her! Will continue to use her for walks ☺️”
About: I've had fur babies for 14+ years now. Neighbors, friends and family members have trusted me with their love ones for periods of time and we have had an amazing connection and experience! I actually work from home with a very flexible schedule. This allows me to watch the furbabies closely everyday and help taking multiple breaks during the day. Also, very flexible on making visits during the day. I have big fenced yard where babies can run and enjoy time outside. Love walking, so if visiting your babies at your place, I'd more than happy to provide whatever amount of walking they need to reset. Happy to give them company and share trust with you that your babies and home will be safe once I leave.
About: Hi! I’m Nikki. I’ve lived with dogs of all sizes my whole life and have been providing pet care for several years. I’m a true dog enthusiast who also studies canine behavior and training—so I don’t just “watch” dogs, I focus on keeping them safe, relaxed, and set up for success while they’re with me. I’m experienced with puppies, adult dogs, and seniors, and I’m comfortable supporting basic manners and routine-based training during a stay (sit, down, leash manners, calm greetings, etc.). I’m also very familiar with crate training and can help keep your dog’s home routine consistent—whether they’re crated at night, have structured rest breaks, or need extra support settling in a new environment. My goal is simple: your dog feels secure, enriched, and cared for—and you feel confident they’re in good hands. Pet care is a consistent part of my weekly routine. I’m home most of the day and plan my schedule around feeding, potty breaks, walks, and supervised outdoor time. I’m able to accommodate most drop-off/pick-up times with a little notice, and I keep dogs on a structured daily routine. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a securely fenced front and back yard for safe outdoor time, and dogs are always supervised and brought inside as needed (weather, energy level, or comfort). My home is structured and calm. I can offer private time and separation at any point, and I’m happy to follow your dog’s normal routines and boundaries. Dogs can sleep crated, in a safe room, or in another arrangement you prefer. I also have two stable, friendly medium-sized dogs. If your dog enjoys social time, we can do carefully managed introductions and supervised play. If your dog prefers space—or does best as a solo guest—I can absolutely accommodate that too. I’m attentive to body language, stress signals, and anxiety, and I aim to make your dog’s stay peaceful and predictable.

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and absolutely love caring for them! I’ve had the opportunity to care for and host dozens of dogs with all different personalities, ages, and needs. I’m comfortable with special diets, medications, different routines, and making sure each dog gets plenty of outside time, exercise, play, attention, and plenty of time to relax. I also have a 7-year-old Australian Shepherd who is playful, friendly, and loves having other dogs around. I'm used to making dogs feel comfortable and welcome in our home, and I treat every dog like they’re part of my family. My goal is always to make sure they feel safe, loved, comfortable, and right at home while they’re in my care. I work from home, so there is usually someone around throughout the day to give pets attention and care. I have a flexible routine that allows plenty of time for potty breaks, outside time, play, walks, and cuddles throughout the day. My home is generally quiet and relaxed. I'm able to give pets plenty of one-on-one attention while also making sure they have time to rest and feel comfortable. I have a fully fenced yard where dogs can safely get outside, play, explore, and get some fresh air. Since I work from home, there is usually someone around to keep an eye on things and give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. I also have a sweet, friendly 7-year-old Australian Shepherd who loves having other dogs around and can be a great companion for them. I always take introductions at the dogs’ pace and make sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and relaxed in my home. I’m also happy to follow each pet’s normal routine and any specific instructions their owner provides.
“Lynne & her Husband were "wonderful" with our 2 Bulldogs!!! We could tell the dogs were comfy, given LOTS of attention and enjoyed being there. She communicated well with us and sent lots of pics. We will definitely ask her to watch our Babies again!”
“We are so happy we found Jessica! Bella and Brutus had a wonderful time. The pictures sent to us were evidence of how well they were cared for. We are pretty picky when it comes to our baby and after a few interviews with other care givers had lost hope. Jessica and her family were the perfect fit.”
“Trevor was great! He took in Milou last minute as I was visiting Tampa for a wedding. He was very accommodating. He handled my dog very well as he was navigating a new city and new place after a 6 hours car ride. I would definitely come back again next time I’m in town.”
