“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!”
“We have used them quite a few times and our dogs always have a great time! I am provided with photos and details of what they do throughout the day. Would highly recommend!”
“I received many photos showing that Jax was happy, entertained, and relaxed. I liked that he was with other dogs, and that Erving was present most of the time with them. Very happy with the service.”
“Shannon did an amazing job! She sent so many pictures and videos of my dog to keep me updated throughout the weekend. She even let my dog tag along to a doggy bday party on the beach, which made me so happy. Shannon was super communicative an flexible and my dog came home a happy girl”
“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!!”
“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!”
“Haley was absolutely wonderful! We had to extend our time with her unexpectedly, and she accommodated us willingly—even on short notice. Her flexibility and kindness made a stressful situation much easier, and we’re so grateful for her support.”
“I was very lucky to find Sofia to watch my puppy Ruby. I could tell from the pictures she sent that Ruby was being taken care of quite well and that they had a lot of fun together. Normally when Ruby is with someone else in a strange environment, she doesn't eat normally, but judging by what was left over, she pretty much ate normally. I will definately ask Sofia to watch Ruby the next time I go on vacation and need a dog sitter.”
“Samuel was awesome! Theo had a wonderful stay in a lovely neighborhood! Samuel was extremely responsive, sent updates and pictures, and was flexible for our drop off and pick up times. We couldn’t ask for more and would highly recommend him to watch your fur babies! Very thankful to find such an excellent and professional home to host our furriest family member.”
“Nicole was incredible! This was the first time our Oakley would be away from home so we wanted to make sure we picked the right sitter. Nicole met us ahead of time for a quick meet and greet and Oakley loved her! She kept us up-to-date while we were gone and was so easy to communicate with. Highly recommend booking with Nicole!”
“Chante was awesome! She helped to take of our dog when we had a last minute change of plans come up and she took amazing care of her. Would definitely recommend her to others and will be looking to use her again the future.”
“Peaches loves staying with Aisha. She takes such good care of my baby. Tail is always wagging and tongue hanging out when I go pick her up! Aisha is caring and I trust her very much with my dog! Thank you!!”
“"She was absolutely amazing with my dog while I was traveling to Tampa. She is very caring, loving, and responsible. She kept me updated and made me feel completely comfortable the entire time. When I came back, my dog was happy and well taken care of. I truly appreciate the love and attention she gave. I highly recommend her and will definitely book with her again!"”
“I felt so much anxiety leaving Maggie while on vacation but felt so much more at ease with Hermun!! she sent me pictures and videos everyday of her playing with her pup and I was able to enjoy my vacation. Thanks again Hermun!!!!”
“My dog absolutely loved going to Madisyn’s home! He came home exhausted from playing all day long and was even tired the following day. Would definitely recommend booking and will book again in the future”
“Seaura was amazing!! We will definitely be trusting her with our baby girl again. This is our first time getting a sitter for our dog and Seaura made everything easy and smooth. She made us feel incredibly comfortable throughout the whole trip, sent picture updates, and she was also very generously flexible with the scheduling. You can tell she really cares for your pets :)”

“Chavelly was a great dog sitter for Truman. She sent me videos and pictures each day. She has a very friendly dog, who Truman enjoyed having a friend to play with. She has a dog park on her property which is ideal for play time. I will board Truman with her again for sure!”
“Rachel was everything you would hope for in a dog sitter!! She sent us a daily photo of our Murphy girl, was super responsive when we had questions and very flexible with pick up and drop off times! Murphy had so much fun staying at her house and we will definitely be reaching out to have Murphy stay again! We are so thankful to Rachel for taking great care of our girl, we were able to actually relax on vacation knowing Murphy was safe and happy.”

About: As a YouTube writer for Chewy, I spent years immersed in the pet world—learning from veterinarians, trainers, behaviorists, and the animals themselves. That experience taught me how to notice the little things: body language, emotional signals, changes in behavior, and the unique routines that help each pet feel safe and comfortable. I’ve cared for dogs, puppies, senior pets, cats, and dog-reactive dogs, and I’m comfortable administering medication. Most importantly, I know there’s no one-size-fits-all approach to pet care. I’ll take the time to learn your pet’s personality, quirks, routines, and preferences so they feel cared for and you feel 100% assured they’re being loved on while you’re away! I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to provide attentive, reliable pet care throughout the day. I have a regular walking routine with my own dog, plus fully fenced front and backyards for safe outdoor time. I’m also available to make drop-in visits to homes in my area, while keeping pets’ routines, exercise needs, and individual personalities in mind. In my home, pets enjoy a safe, comfortable environment with a fully fenced front and backyard, daily walks, and a calm routine alongside my own dog. I’ll follow your pet’s schedule, preferences, and comfort level so they feel at home. For care in your home, my TrustedHousesitters experience has taught me to be respectful, tidy, communicative, and mindful of your space. I’ll care for your pets and home as thoughtfully as I would 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!!”
“Chloe is a very caring and kind petsitter. She came to the rescue on very short notice and brought a sense of calm and order in a difficult time for me. She went the extra mile who I will use her again for sure.”
“I would highly recommend Rachel! I felt very at easy allowing her in my home and taking care of my pets. She was very kind and loving to my two cats while I was away on vacation. She communicated well when there was a need and left my home just the way I left it!”
“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.”
“Kory did a great job watching my cat Mojo, he spent time with him and gave me updates everyday :) Highly recommend Kory to take care of your pet”
“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.”
“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!”
“I highly recommend Sophia! She has a great understanding of cats and was very loving and caring to our kitty. She is very professional and leaves great detailed reports of her visits. Five stars - would look forward to booking her again!”
“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!”
“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!”
About: I’ve taken care of my friends and family’s pets on and off for the past several years while they’re out of town and I currently have a cat of my own! I'm a student at the University with classes Monday-Friday but I have breaks throughout the day and I'm completely available at night on weekdays and all during the weekends. I would make sure any gates are locked if letting the pets outside and that they’re properly fed throughout the day with enough water as well.

“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 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.
“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!!”
“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 :)”
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.
“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.”
“Chante is so reliable! Our plans had a last minute change and the morning of, Chante was able help us out and watch our girl for the day. Nola loves playing with Makeda and I know I can always count on Chante to be attentive and keep us in the loop throughout her care!”
About: I have been dog walking and pet sitting since 2015, it started out looking after my neighbor’s 2 dogs and before i knew it, the good word spread around in my neighborhood and i became the local pet sitter, everything grew after that. Not to mention i have been around dogs my whole life, my mom had 3 growing up. i realized that although im able to make money from this, it doesn't feel like a job to me at all because i absolutely love animals and i feel good taking care of them. i can say that i have found my passion in the process. i provide 5 star service and keep great communication with the owners. i am very trustworthy, and have many references to support my claims which are available upon request. i love what i do and if you allow me the opportunity to show you, i will provide great value to you and your pet’s needs. i am able to fulfill custom requests as well. anything else you would like to know just ask me, i am very transparent and personable. Thank you for the opportunity! God bless. i left my former job in 2019 to become a full time pet caretaker. my schedule is flexible, and i will most likely be able to meet your availability needs. i have set up my home to be a very safe and pet-friendly environment, they have space to roam around inside and outdoor availability as well. There is also a very nice dog park in my neighborhood. i am very respectful when entering other people’s homes and i view it as a privilege that they trust me in their home. i mind my own business and only do what the owner asks of me. i treat other’s homes as i would want mine to be treated.
“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!”
“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!”
About: I grew up around dogs and cats, mostly German Shephards, and I currently have a 2 year old cat named Willow and a 9 year old scruffball named Pichu. I also have experience with axolotls, turtles, rodents/rabbits, and fish, in case you have other pets that also need attending to while you are away. I am also happy to do additional tasks like collect mail, water plants, and other small things you may need done in your home while you are away from it and your pets. I work part time at Health Mutt in Seminole Heights and have extensive knowledge and connections in the holistic food and grooming world. Let’s talk! I work from home and can take breaks as often as needed to take care of any animals in my care, especially for walks and play time I have one dog that loves to play with any other dogs, and my cat can be secured as necessary. I am happy to let dogs out or take them for walks.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for decades and will treat your babies like the royalty they are. My home is their home when they are here. I’m home all day with my three babies, so I have the capacity to frequently take your kiddos on walks & playtime out in the fenced yard I have three dogs on my own that are friendly after getting acclimated to other visiting dogs. I have a completely separate room if needed for solitude while boarding.
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.
“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!”
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.
“Lynne and Michael are so sweet and caring, our boy was so happy he almost didn't want to leave. Communucation was amazing during the planning stage and the stay itself”
“Madisyn and her boyfriend welcomed Libby. When I picked up Libby, it looks like she was having a good time with the other dogs. Would definitely recommend and bring my dogs back.”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs/cats and have taken care of my neighbors or friends dogs for weeks at a time. I have extensive experience caring for dogs/cats, ranging from energetic pets to sweet senior pets. I’m good at managing them and attentive at reading their body language. I have been a passionate animal lover for over 16 years. I know how important it is to find someone you trust with your fur babies. I treat every pet in my care with the same love, patience, and attention I would give my own. I also volunteer at the humane society to be able to walk dogs. I work remote Mondays, Fridays, and sometimes Wednesdays, so your pet gets constant attention and frequent potty breaks. The days I don't work remote, Tuesdays, Thursdays, and sometimes Wednesdays, I am available in the evenings. You can reach out to me last minute and I can do my best to be available. I am available on the weekends unless noted on my calendar. When outside, your pet will always be securely leashed. I do not do off-leash walks or visit public dog parks unless explicitly requested and approved by you. My home is completely pet-proofed, with no exposed hazards and always keep doors secure. If you like your dogs crated at night I can do that as well. I also have one roommates who can also keep watch them if I ever have to run errands. I have a sweet resident cat who is very used to other animals. However, for total safety and comfort, I have plenty of space and can easily keep my cat in a completely separate room during your pet's stay. You will receive daily text and photo updates so you know exactly how your pet is doing, eating, and playing!

About: Started dog-walking/-sitting in my pre-teens. Owned 3 dogs during this time (two part-Lab and one Great Dane. All rescues). Kept a small, growing business which consisted of walking or being paid to stay a week with a dog. This continued until early 20s. Have since continued to sit family's, friends', and family friends' dogs over the years. No matter the size or breed I always manage to find a friend in new dogs. Epileptic, old, and those requiring medicine are not a problem. Whether or not they adhere to commands isn't a problem. I've had very obedient dogs and known many that ran the house. Either way, we'll get along fine. I'm only out of the house for 6 hours at most. My old lady used to need a lot of attention, so I'm used to life revolving around a dog upon entry, before leaving, and taking a break every 30 minutes to give some love. Private back lawn. I have a designated spot in a public walkway for food and water but can move as needs depict. Doors to back rooms are shut when not being used. Nothing heavy or sharp that can fall or come in contact with your pet. I had a 17.5 year old so the house was made as safe as possible for her.

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.

“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.”

I take them on adventures in my free time in their stroller, and keep their Space very tidy!😊 I will care for your pets the way you want me too, and what is comfortable and best for your pets! I understand some pets need different things and I am completely open to accommodating to their specific needs!
About: I’ve taken care and trained all sorts of dogs since I was a child! My mother and myself did Paws Woth A Cause training ever since I was 7 years old so I have 10+ years experience of training and have a golden retriever currently! I work part time so I have plenty of time to be home and care for your pet(s)! Boarding from Thursday-Sunday (24hour) and weekdays after 5pm! I have a fenced in backyard and a very safe neighborhood for walks! I also have a loving golden retriever to play with any dog here! If your pet needs to be crated we can talk about that as well!
About: I’ve grown up around dogs and have years of experience caring for pets for my neighbors, friends, and family. I’ve helped with walking, feeding, playtime, bathing, and keeping pets company while their owners are away. I’m comfortable following specific routines and instructions, and I always make sure pets feel safe, loved, and well cared for. I’m dependable, patient, and will treat your pet like they’re my own. As a college student, my schedule gives me a lot of flexibility for pet care. I should have most Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays available, along with additional availability throughout the week and on weekends. I always make sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while their owners are away. I’ll follow their normal routine, give them lots of attention, and treat them like my own. I keep you updated with pictures and messages so you can feel comfortable while you’re away.
About: I’m organized, reliable, and really focused on keeping your pet comfortable and on their normal routine. I live in a walkable area with access to a dog park, so there are plenty of opportunities for walks and playtime. I also make communication a priority and will keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know how your pet is doing. 🐾💕 Chanel is a big part of my daily routine! I make sure she’s fed, has a clean space, gets plenty of attention and playtime, and of course, lots of cuddles. She’s very social and loves being around people, so I’m used to having a pet as part of my everyday life. Caring for her has also taught me how important it is to be consistent with a pet’s routine and give them the attention they need. My apartment is a safe, clean, and comfortable space for pets. I’m very mindful about keeping doors and windows secure and making sure there aren’t things around that could be harmful to them.🤍🐈
About: I’ve taken care of my friends and family’s pets on and off for the past several years while they’re out of town and I currently have a cat of my own! I'm a student at the University with classes Monday-Friday but I have breaks throughout the day and I'm completely available at night on weekdays and all during the weekends. I would make sure any gates are locked if letting the pets outside and that they’re properly fed throughout the day with enough water as well.

“Matt was amazing!! Took great care of our baby and was so flexible with us needing 2 extra days due to the hurricane that closed the airport. We highly recommend him for your next boarding experience and will definitely use him again?”
“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.”
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.
“Sharii was an awesome care giver for our Princess Nala. Sharii provided pictures of Nala having a fun time inside the house as well as outside. This eased our fears so much due to the fact that this was our first time leaving our fur baby with anyone. We will definitely have Sharii watch our Nala every time.”
