“This was my first time ever using Rover and I was 100% please with Brittany and Steven. They made me feel extremely comfortable with leaving Sadie in their care. Every day they sent me a picture and update on how she was doing and I could tell she enjoyed her stay and they gave her all the loving attention that she needed. I would 100% use them again. The next time I go away.”
“Angela and Kenneth are wonderful puppy sitters. I really felt comfortable leaving my babies with them. I appreciate there patience and support with my very "attached to mama" boy. Their home is totally pet friendly and accommodations were made for our big comfy blanket. Angela kept me updated with photos and videos which allowed me the peace of mind to really enjoy my vacation. Thanks so much Angela and Kenneth!”
“Another amazing stay with Molly and Olive! Tribe came home exhausted from all the play and love. Olive is such a patient sweet girl with young Tribe and Molly keeps an eye on all play - I trust them with my baby completely and wouldn’t want him in anyone else’s hands.”
“Claire was absolutely wonderful! We have two older small dogs and they seemed to be very happy—enjoyed the fenced-in yard, played with Claire’s dog, and were cared for with love. The best boarding experience we’ve ever had!”
“Rachel was amazing in taking care of our cat. She sent bunch of pictures and videos. Our Osman was comfortable in her house, and we were happy knowing he is in good hands.”
“Julie and Brian were amazing! My dog, Java had surgery on her mind and two days prior to her sit. She was very well taken care of and handled with kindness and gentleness. I highly recommend them as sitters. Java was comfortable with their dog and snuggled with them on their couch.”
“Ruthie and her husband were incredibly kind and took such great care of our Benny. They kept him active, happy, and well loved throughout his stay. We especially appreciated the frequent photos and updates, which gave us a peace of mind while we were away knowing he was in such good hands. We would happily trust them with Benny again!”
“Savannah was very sweet and professional. She’s been the best sitter I’ve had so far. She watched our dog for 6 days with no issues whatsoever. I would trust her anytime with our animals and will certainly use her again. Thank you Savannah for taking wonderful care of our baby and for such an easy, care free experience!”
“Briannon took great care of Jimin during his 5 nights stay. She is definitely the best you can get for dog care - communicative caring and just made everything super easy. I loved the daily updates and pictures she sent. As a bonus her dog is super friendly and it was nice knowing my dog had a good friend to hang out with”

“Susan took good care of Tooey during a recent 6 day period. She is a patient sitter and clearly loves dogs. Tooey was in good hands with her and her daughter. Tooey also had the company of Susan’s dog Abner, which I’m sure helped her feel more comfortable during her stay.”

I have an older Shiba Inu, and she can be temperamental sometimes. When I picked my dog up she was happy, rested and clean… and happy! She didn’t even give me attitude for leaving her for five days. I’ll definitely be using Kelly again!”
“Billy was just great! He went the extra mile with my little dog, Gracie and I appreciate his kindness and attentiveness. He also kept me posted as to how she was doing. I would definitely book again with him. He really loves dogs and enjoys their company.”

About: I’ve had dogs and/or cats since I was 4 and was always the one caring for them. I started pet sitting 6 years ago after watching a neighbors pet and realizing how much i enjoyed caring for them. I love walking, feeding and playing with them. On occasion i’ve found myself having to get them cleaned up after a day of fun so bathing isn’t a problem. I’m currently working part time from home and flexible with times. I’m an early riser therefore mornings don’t bother me and depending on distance I can be available in the evening. Currently I have two cats so their fun activities are kept indoors. There’s a cat tree they love to relax on and they both LOVE water so i’ll give them fresh water from the faucet. In clients home I’ll abide by any preferences they have for their pets and play with them non stop.
“Amazing . needed to leave my scaredy cat for a long weekend and Mary came and made sure he was ok! She took very detailed pictures of him hiding underneath the bed lol but all and all I am very happy with her services ! would totally use her again!”
“Thank you Lisa for taking care of my cat! She did an exceptional job - was very professional and communicated well. I strongly recommend her and will be contacting her again if I ever need a sitter.”
About: What sets me apart is my lifelong experience and genuine love for dogs. I’ve had dogs of many different breeds my entire life, which has given me a deep understanding of their personalities and needs. I also worked in a shelter, where I cared for over 50 dogs, so I’m comfortable handling different temperaments, energy levels, and special situations. I’m patient, attentive, and truly committed to making every dog feel safe, loved, and understood. Whether it’s a playful puppy or a senior dog who needs extra care, I adapt to each pet’s unique needs. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I truly enjoy spending time with animals. I structure my day to make sure pets get regular walks, feeding, playtime, and attention throughout the day. I’m flexible with my schedule, which allows me to adapt to each pet’s needs—whether that means early morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening care. I also make sure to dedicate quality time so pets feel comfortable, safe, and not alone. Caring for pets isn’t just something I fit in—it’s something I genuinely prioritize and enjoy every day. I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home. I always follow the pet’s usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special instructions. In my home, I make sure pets have a clean, comfortable space where they can relax and feel secure. I give them plenty of attention, exercise, and affection, while also respecting their individual personality and energy level. In a client’s home, I prioritize keeping their pet’s routine consistent to reduce stress. I’m very respectful of the home, keep everything clean, and make sure pets feel safe and cared for while their owner is away. I also pay close attention to behavior and health, and I’m comfortable caring for puppies, active dogs, and seniors who may need extra patience and care.
“Kelsey did an amazing job with my cat. She listened to directions, showed up consistently, and gave very good care...She put effort in to provide him a safe friend while I was away. She also did a few extra things that were above cat sitting. I felt lucky to find her, highly recommend.”
About: I have always had a unique soft spot for cats. I love getting to know their spunky, unique personalities. I know cats can be very independent, and each one has their own routines, quirks, and comfort levels. I am happy to give them attention and playtime when they want it, but I'll also keep an eye out for them if they are the type who wants their space!
About: Hi, I’m Kylee. Animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. I have a 15‑year‑old Pomeranian and two cats of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your pets, especially seniors or animals with unique personalities. I’ve spent years volunteering with shelters, including the SPCA, where I became a behavioral specialist. I worked with dogs and cats who needed extra support, helping them build confidence, reduce anxiety, and become more adoptable. That experience taught me how to read body language, respond calmly, and meet each animal exactly where they are. I’ve also done extensive pet sitting for friends, neighbors, and families, caring for everything from energetic puppies to shy cats to senior dogs who need a slower pace and a gentle routine. I’m comfortable with medication, special instructions, and pets who need a little extra patience. Your pets will get reliable communication, lots of attention, and a safe, calm environment. I treat every animal like my own, and I’m committed to making sure you feel completely at ease while you’re away.
About: After adopting my own cat, I wanted to find a way to pay the world back for helping bring her into my life, so I started working with Tampa Bay Strays! I helped run their adoption events for about 7 months before moving out of Tampa and helped home dozens of cats! I have experience bottle feeding kittens due to this and have dealt with all different temperaments. I’ve also helped rehome cats since then at a smaller scale along with helping rehome a dog.
“Evelyn is amazing! Took such good care of my pup and made him feel so loved and cared for! She was always super respectful and sent me tons of updates throughout the day! Definitely would book her again🐾”
“Amazing experience!! Skylar is professional and quick to respond. She is attentive and followed all the instructions I left for my dog Wrigley. She also kept me updated while I was away w plenty of photos. I can gone from vacation to a happy and well cared for pup!”
“I highly recommend Miles. She was excellent with my little ones, attentive and caring, she earned their trust and communicated very well with them. And she kept me informed of everything. I loved her work. 💖”
“Sydney does an amazing job taking care of my dog Bronsan while I’m at work! He always has a fun time hanging out with her. She does a perfect job showing up on time to his walks and does great communicating with me. Even recently, she protected my dog from an unleashed pitbull attack so I don’t think it gets any better than that. Can’t recommend her enough!”
About: I just recently moved to the Gulfport area and am looking to meet new pets and people. I've been pet boarding and sitting with Rover in Charlotte, NC for the past 4 years. I've had dogs and cats growing up. I've pet sat my friends and families dogs and cats for over 5 years! I love animals and they bring me joy! I currently work part time so I have lots of availability during the week! I am also available on the weekends as well, let's do this. I have a big backyard and front yard and live in a very walkable neighborhood. The backyard is fenced for playing and staying safe! Yay!
About: I grew up with two dogs that filled my life with so much joy. I just want to give that to your dogs even if it’s just a walk, a check in, or even a long term service. I have open availability to care for your fur babies. I do have a part time job but will be able to schedule around those few shifts I have a week. My priority is your animals! I am very adamant on keeping all dogs on leash unless in a gated backyard or at a dog park dependent on how they interact with other dogs and owners wishes.

I’ve also done extensive pet sitting for friends, neighbors, and families, caring for everything from energetic puppies to shy cats to senior dogs who need a slower pace and a gentle routine. I’m comfortable with medication, special instructions, and pets who need a little extra patience. Your pets will get reliable communication, lots of attention, and a safe, calm environment. I treat every animal like my own, and I would only use kennels if it is your preference. I want your pets to feel they’re at a second home. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine because I work from home and have a lot of flexibility throughout the day. I’m already used to caring for my own senior Pomeranian and two cats, so feeding schedules, check‑ins, and quiet companionship are part of my everyday life. Going on walks is something I do daily, both for my dog and for myself, so adding a few more paws to the routine feels completely natural. I also volunteer regularly with local shelters, which keeps me connected to animals with all kinds of personalities and needs. Caring for pets is already woven into my week, and I genuinely enjoy making space for it. I keep things simple and comfortable for pets, whether they’re in my home or their own. I work from home with a flexible schedule, so I’m able to give animals regular attention, walks, and check-ins throughout the day. At home, I follow routines closely and make sure my senior Pomeranian and two cats have a calm, predictable environment — and I bring that same approach to clients’ pets. In their home, I stick to their normal schedule, keep things tidy, and pay attention to what makes them feel safe and relaxed. My goal is always to make them feel cared for and at ease while you’re away.
“Maddie was fantastic with Charlie! She made the experience stress-free by keeping me in the loop with regular updates and pictures throughout the day. I’ll definitely continue going to her in the future — highly recommend!”
About: I am a work from home sitter with a fenced in yard who will be your pet's full time care giver and best friend while you are away!! I am a work from home sitter with a fenced in yard and have plenty of time to entertain and care for your fur baby. I have a private fenced in yard and a 3 year old Goldendoodle who would love to be best friends with your fur baby. He's very social and loves to play so we'll want to make sure your baby is social and is interested in lots of play time and attention. I am a professional ball thrower and love to spend as much time as possible with the babies.
About: I have been caring for dogs most of my life and love every dog as if they’re my own. I have experience with all life stages and personalities - whether your dog is high energy and needs lots of playtime or is a senior who just wants to relax and be loved on. I am used to medication management, special diets, mobility challenges and bottle feeding. My adult dog, Olive, is always looking for a new friend to play with. I also foster puppies from time to time, so there may be lots of new friends for your pup to interact with while they’re here. I tailor my care to match animals’ personality and routine. My goal is to make them feel safe, happy and well-cared for while you’re away. Whether that is day care during the day or a long-term trip, they will be in good hands. I am fully remote and will be with your pup(s) all day. We will have plenty of outdoor play time during the day and always make time for afternoon naps. There is a nice 3 mile walking path by my house, so if your dog is very active and likes to walk or run, I would love to bring them along. For less active dogs, there will always be a comfy spot on the couch for them! I have a large fenced yard with plenty of room for them to explore. My dog, Olive, loves to run around back there. There are also cooling mats on the back porch if your dog likes to sunbathe.
About: Hi! I’m Michelle, and I believe every dog deserves to feel safe, loved, comfortable, and genuinely cared for while their family is away. ❤️ When your dog stays with me, they’re treated like family. I provide a calm, loving home environment where your pup can relax, receive plenty of attention, and follow the routines and comforts they’re used to at home. One thing that makes my care different: I care for only one client dog at a time. This allows me to give your dog my undivided attention, individualized care, and plenty of one-on-one companionship rather than having multiple unfamiliar dogs competing for my attention. I understand that leaving your dog with someone new can be stressful—for both you and your pup! My goal is to make the experience as comfortable and reassuring as possible. I’ll take the time to learn your dog’s personality, routines, preferences, and needs so they can feel right at home. Whether your dog loves walks, cuddles, playtime, relaxing on the couch, or simply having someone nearby, I’m happy to give them the love and attention they deserve. 🐶💕 You can feel confident knowing your furry family member is receiving personalized, attentive, and compassionate care in a comfortable home environment. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pup and become someone you can trust whenever you need a loving home away from home! Because I work from home, caring for a dog fits naturally into my daily routine. I’m home throughout the day, which allows me to provide consistent companionship, supervision, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of love and attention. Your dog’s safety and well-being are my top priorities. I provide a clean, comfortable, and calm home environment where your pet can feel secure and cared for while you’re away. Because I work from home and care for only one client dog at a time, your pup receives consistent supervision and my undivided attention throughout their stay. I’m able to keep a close eye on them, maintain their normal routine, and quickly notice if something seems unusual or if they need extra comfort or attention. I take the time to learn each dog’s individual personality, habits, routines, feeding schedule, medications (if applicable), and any special instructions provided by their owner. I believe clear communication with you is an important part of building trust, so I’m happy to provide updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. ❤️ I also respect each dog’s boundaries and comfort level. Whether your pup is playful and energetic or prefers a quiet place to relax, I want them to feel safe and welcome in my home. Most importantly, I treat every dog in my care as I would want someone to treat my own—with patience, compassion, respect, attention, and lots of love. 🐶💕

I'm very patient, compassionate, hardworking, trustworthy and loyal to people and pets. If your pet is with me they will be safe and loved. I have been a homecare person for an elderly family member and have taken care of my friends animals when they have gone out of town.

About: Dogs have pretty much always been a part of my life! 🐶 I grew up with dogs and have had two of my own as an adult, plus I’m the go-to dog sitter for plenty of friends. I love everything from long walks and playtime to relaxing on the couch with a furry friend. I’ll make sure your pup gets lots of attention, belly rubs, and care while you’re away — basically, they’ll have their own little vacation! 🐾 I work from home, so I have a pretty flexible schedule and can give your pup plenty of attention throughout the day.

About: I grew up in a family of dog lovers raising Pugs, and I’ve since had an English Bulldog and now a Frenchie of my own. I have a special place in my heart for smush-faced breeds and understand their unique personalities and needs, but all pups are welcome! I’ve been around dogs my entire life and will make sure yours feels safe, comfortable, and treated like part of the family while they’re in my care. I work from home during the week, which means your pup won’t spend the day alone while staying with me. I have a large backyard for play and plenty of flexibility for potty breaks, walks, and attention throughout the day. My dog loves to spend the day napping in my bed. He’s pretty docile and lazy during the day when he wants to be. However he will always play host and entertain guests to fit their needs. I have a large backyard where they can roam and play.
“Marrion is so wonderful with our puppy Luna! She stays long hours on the weekend with Marrion at doggy day care and comes home tuckered out from having fun all day! We trust Marrion completely and would highly recommend her to anyone. And we can tell Luna just loves her!! She is communicative, honest, caring, and so accommodating. She is the best!!!”

About: I own 2 cats myself and have taken care of and lived with dogs before as well. I am also open to animals that may have some disabilities as well. I am located on St Pete beach but am open to the surrounding Tampa Bay Area. I currently work part time so I have a good amount of time to set aside throughout the week. I don’t mind dropping in or going on walks on days I work as well! I like to care for pets based on the how the owners would like them to be cared for. I would appreciate some instruction and background on pets so I can understand them better.
“Lisa is so sweet and my Bella really likes her! She arrived during the expected time frame and let me know how my pup was doing. She even got sent pictures of my cats. Will definitely hire her for future walks.”
About: I am a friend to all animals, I don't discriminate! I'm a lifelong Floridian so I love all kinds of wildlife and have a big appreciation for nature and love to be outdoors, taking dogs to the beach or on long hikes. I also am a huge cat person and am mom to 3 cats🐈⬛. I love all dogs– big, small, hyper, cuddly, lazy, energetic. I've had 2 dobermans in my life so I'm very good with what some would consider "scary" or misunderstood dogs. I've taken care of rottweilers, pitbulls, staffys, retrievers, shepherds. I also had a chihuahua for 13 years, a pet bunny, tons of fish & turtles, a bird, and dozens of cats. So I'm well versed in a lot of pets and understand how important they are to us.

But I have plenty of room and space for pets to be more than comfortable. I take them for walks as soon as I wake up and feed them all breakfast, then take them out at least 4-5 times a day. I lay on the couch with them or take them to the dog park. If your pet has a specific routine just fill me in on the details and I will treat them as if they were my own! I live in a home with a backyard and multiple rooms for space for pets. I live in a pet friendly neighborhood where I can walk dogs for miles and miles! If a pet requires any type of specific space, I have room to provide it for them. I have dog gates & a big guest room so separation is easy and I have a screened in catio for cats
About: Hi! I am an animal lover of all breeds and sizes. My first love were my dogs and horses. I have two dogs at home- two adopted labradoodle mixes (Comino & Amalia), and a rescue 4 year old cavapoo (Renny), an Appaloosa horse (Freckles) and I regularly care for my landlords two cats. These animals are my whole world, in fact I’m on this app simply to earn more money to spoil them and enjoy more time with animals. I am willing to run with your dog, play interactive games, feed, take to dog park/appointments, etc. I have gone to many dog training classes and can be of assistance in training too! I am open to anything but most importantly want to assure you your pets safety and health is my first priority as I know the strong bond between a pet and their human. (my pups my babies!). I work from home and have the flexibility to do last minute bookings and stay out as long as needed. Thanks! Feel free to ask any questions or references ☺️ I work from home and have a very flexible schedule allowing me to help you out in last minute situations. I make time to not only exercise the dog but to brush/spoil him or her too! I always ask the owner first about anything I should know about so that I can keep the pet away from anything that would make them uneasy. I use a strong leash, triple check that all doors are securely closed before leaving, and I often have treats on me in case it’s needed as a distraction or reward.
About: I have always been the go-to person my friends and family ask to watch their fur babies, from quick visits to overnight stays. I have a very anxious fur baby at home who is my whole world, and know how nerve wrecking it can be leaving your beloved pet with someone new. I am happy to go above and beyond to ensure your pet is safe, happy and well cared for! I currently am in school full time and have a lot of evenings open as well as gap days. There are many windows of time where I am free and able to give your pet my undivided attention and love! I have a large home that does not have a fenced in yard, but does have a screened in porch that lots of pups have enjoyed laying in the sun and looking out the windows of! :) I am in the Gulfport art district and can easily access anyone in that area. I am VERY committed to your pets safety and happiness in my home.
About: dogs has always been a big part of my life. I’m also a college athlete, so I’m very active and would love taking your pup on walks, playing with them, and keeping them entertained! I’ve also gone along with a close friend who works for Rover multiple times, which has given me experience seeing what goes into caring for different dogs and making sure they are happy, safe, and comfortable. I’m responsible, patient, and caring, and I always want to make sure each dog’s individual routine and needs are followed. I’ll treat your pup like my own and keep you updated with pictures so you can feel comfortable knowing they’re in good hands! As a college athlete, I have a busy but structured schedule, so I’m very good at planning ahead and managing my time. I’m happy to work pet care into my daily routine and make sure each dog gets the attention, exercise, and care they need. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting depending on my class and practice schedule, and I’ll always communicate my availability clearly with each owner. When caring for a pet, my biggest priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I always follow the owner’s instructions closely, including their feeding schedule, walks, medications if needed, and any specific routines or preferences. I’m very attentive and make sure pets are never put in unsafe situations. Since I’ve owned four dogs myself, I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet. I’ll give each dog plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, and cuddles while also respecting their space and personality. I’ll also keep owners updated with pictures and messages so they know their pup is happy and doing well.
About: Hi, I’m Kylee. Animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. I have a 15‑year‑old Pomeranian and two cats of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your pets, especially seniors or animals with unique personalities. I’ve spent years volunteering with shelters, including the SPCA, where I became a behavioral specialist. I worked with dogs and cats who needed extra support, helping them build confidence, reduce anxiety, and become more adoptable. That experience taught me how to read body language, respond calmly, and meet each animal exactly where they are. I’ve also done extensive pet sitting for friends, neighbors, and families, caring for everything from energetic puppies to shy cats to senior dogs who need a slower pace and a gentle routine. I’m comfortable with medication, special instructions, and pets who need a little extra patience. Your pets will get reliable communication, lots of attention, and a safe, calm environment. I treat every animal like my own, and I would only use kennels if it is your preference. I want your pets to feel they’re at a second home. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine because I work from home and have a lot of flexibility throughout the day. I’m already used to caring for my own senior Pomeranian and two cats, so feeding schedules, check‑ins, and quiet companionship are part of my everyday life. Going on walks is something I do daily, both for my dog and for myself, so adding a few more paws to the routine feels completely natural. I also volunteer regularly with local shelters, which keeps me connected to animals with all kinds of personalities and needs. Caring for pets is already woven into my week, and I genuinely enjoy making space for it. I keep things simple and comfortable for pets, whether they’re in my home or their own. I work from home with a flexible schedule, so I’m able to give animals regular attention, walks, and check-ins throughout the day. At home, I follow routines closely and make sure my senior Pomeranian and two cats have a calm, predictable environment — and I bring that same approach to clients’ pets. In their home, I stick to their normal schedule, keep things tidy, and pay attention to what makes them feel safe and relaxed. My goal is always to make them feel cared for and at ease while you’re away.
About: Growing up with dogs, I love all dogs like my own! Playtime is my favorite time of the day and my large backyard is the perfect place for any breed and size. 🦴 I am home the majority of the day, so your pup will get all the love and attention their heart desires. 🐶 I cared and provided medical care for my diabetic dog with back leg paralysis for 10 years so I have experience with administering medication and attending to any medical needs! 🐾 Wake up & let’s go for a 1 mile walk! 10K steps! A little snoozing time afterwards, then another walk to the park and let’s play fetch! Afterwards dinner and then we’re watchin tv! I love sending photos!! I’ll happily send you pics coming and going. I always over-communicate & will do whatever required to make owners feel secure.
About: I have grown up with dogs my entire life, so they have always just been a part of the family. I recently adopted my sweet perfect angel kitty Lola and helped my old roomates out with their cats so I love them as well. I am a law student so I have 2-3 hour classes periodically throughout the week. I also volunteer as a Guardian Ad Litem and with gulf coast legal services so sometimes I have those obligations as well. I will not bring pets into my home but can definitely visit yours and your fur baby as needed! I look forward to meeting you and your fur child
About: I grew up around dogs and have always loved animals. My family has fostered dogs for many years, so I've cared for dogs with all kinds of personalities, backgrounds, and needs. All of my own pets are rescues, which has taught me how important patience, compassion, and making a dog feel safe and comfortable can be. As a college student away from my fur babies back home, I am so excited to give your pup plenty of attention, playtime, and cuddles while you're away. I am a college student, so my schedule is a bit wonky; please feel free to message me with any questions! My typical availability is listed below: Monday: 11:45-3:00 & After 4:50 Tuesday: After 11:30 Wednesday: 11:45-3:00 & After 4:50 Thursday: After 11:30 Friday: After 11:45 Saturday & Sunday: Unavailable unless arranged in advance I am open to anything regarding your pet's lifestyle. Whether that’s long walks or even runs, crating, potty training, car rides, or lots and lots of play!
“Kailyn is a phenomenal dog walker who has been so flexible with us and our schedule. We hired her to help do weekly walks with our foster dog who could be a bit rowdy. She learned his routine and was able to execute it perfectly each time! We would highly recommend Kailyn for all of your pet walk/sitting needs!”
“It was my first time booking through Rover, and thanks to Amaya this will now be my go-to. Baxter is usually very tentative around strangers, he's very timid and definitely fears the unknown, but Amaya was so great with him. She's patient and knew exactly how to entice him to warm up quickly. Baxter came home in the best mood. Amaya showed up on time and she was super sweet. Definitely will book again!!”
About: I’ve always loved animals and truly believe pets are family. I have two French Bulldogs of my own, ages 4 and 5, and I have experience caring for both dogs and cats, including pet sitting, feeding, playtime, walks, cuddles, and keeping litter boxes clean. I’m patient, attentive, and love getting to know each pet’s personality and routine. Whether your pet is playful, cuddly, shy, or a little spoiled, I’ll treat them with the same love and care I give my own. I know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pets with someone you trust, and I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. 🐾❤️ I have a very flexible schedule and am home most of the day, so pet care fits naturally into my routine. I’m able to accommodate different schedules and love having pets around for extra company! I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine and give them plenty of attention, playtime, and cuddles. I always follow each pet’s normal routine and the instructions their owner provides. During drop-ins and house sitting, I’ll make sure they’re fed, have fresh water, get plenty of attention and playtime, and are comfortable and happy. For dogs, I’m happy to take them on walks and give them the exercise they need. I’ll also keep their space clean. I treat every pet like my own and will always make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for while their owners are away. 🤍
About: I have experience in dog training with 3 rescue pups (and 2 cats) of my own, so a bit of chaos is no stranger to me ;) I’ve made it my life’s mission to give animals the best lives they can, and I understand that their time on Earth with us is limited. I want to make sure that your pet is in the best hands while you’re away and give them the care they deserve❤️ I’ve been pet sitting since I was 10, and before I became a dog trainer, I worked at a kennel, daycare, and boarding facility. In fact- I’m going to college to study animal behavior now in Saint Petersburg, FL! Your four-legged child is my top priority, and I’m very flexible to meet their needs because every animal is different! I work as a part time dog trainer, and I am currently going to college to study animal behavior and psychology. I have two dogs, three cats, and two bunnies of my own, so it's safe to say I am more than equipped to handle anything at this point!! Animals are my entire world, and my dream is to open my own rescue one day. I'd love to help your fur babies while you're away to make them feel comfortable and loved:) I recognize that every animal is different, so I want to work with you to make sure your pet is getting the care best suited for them. I have worked with dogs of all backgrounds, and understand that needs are different for everyone. I will make sure they are being cared for in the most appropriate way for them, and will communicate with you to make sure their needs (and yours) are met!

I’ll definitely be using Kelly again!”

Thank you guys again!”
