“Sarah was amazing and kept me up to date on my pup throughout the whole weekend and I was nervous my dog wasn’t gunna want to come home because she was having so much fun! Highly recommend her 🐾”
“100% RECOMMENDED!! Aura took great care of Chloe. She was happy to have space to run. Aura's cat is very friendly and wasn't bothered by Chloe's presence. I would definitely book again. Chloe has a new friend. Thank you so much.”
“Laura was great! She was flexible when my flight was rerouted and I was delayed. She sent photos daily and she and her family clearly loved my dog. Would absolutely recommend!”
“If I could give a million stars it would still not be enough. Danielle is an amazing person who went above and beyond for my pet while we were away. Her pup Nyla is the sweetest, and I am pretty sure my dog is already missing his new friend. Danielle’s entire family welcomed, spoiled, and lovingly cared for my dog. It was better than a trip to Disneyland for him, and everything a pet parent could ask for while away. Words cannot recommend her enough.”
“Katie absolutely sets the bar for dog sitters. Just WOW. Simon loved her from the second he met her. The entire setup was amazing, from the backyard to the overall environment she’s created for the dogs. You can immediately tell how knowledgeable she is, how much she genuinely loves dogs, and how comfortable she makes them feel. We’ve had some great sitters before (and unfortunately some not so great ones too), but Katie is truly on another level. Simon had an amazing time, and we had complete peace of mind the entire stay. Could not recommend her more highly.”
“They took amazing care of my babies! Not once did I feel worried for them and they sent plenty of pictures so I knew they were having a great time! Will be rebooking with them from now on.”
“We had such a great experience boarding our dog with Taqueria! She took amazing care of our pup and gave us peace of mind the entire time. We loved the picture updates and messages—our dog looked so happy and well-loved. You can truly tell she cares. We will definitely be booking with her again! 🐶💕”
“So we needed Christine again, and she was awesome again. We had a delay due to this government shutdown with our flight and could not get home for an extra day, she was able to keep the dogs an extra day, no issues. She also sent tons of pictures over thier stay, saw that our 1 dog had a loose molar and informed us immediately, she is very observant and very caring to our dogs. If you ever need a sitter and she is available, hands down she is your sitter. I dread using another sitter if she is not ever available.”
“Denise took the best care of Willie during his slumber party with her sweet furbabies! So thankful we found her. She followed all my neurotic Puppy instructions to a T and was a great communicator, letting us know he was safe and happy so we could enjoy our evening.”
“Rebecca and Michael were amazing! I had no worries while my fur baby was staying with them. They sent me lots of pictures of their activities and always made me feel at ease. Would highly recommend them!”
“This was our first overnight dog sitting experience and Mariana was amazing. She was very accommodating and friendly, and Nacho loved her right away! She kept in touch with pics, videos and messages, and took great care of him while we were away. We would absolutely trust her with our boy again!”
“5 Stars – Wonderful Experience! I couldn't be more pleased with the care my puppy Mylie received from Olivia! From the moment I dropped off Mylie off, I felt completely at ease. Olivia is incredibly warm, friendly, and professional, and she took the time to learn about my Mylie. Additionally, Mylie and her puppy became great friends! I would recommend Olivia to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter for their furry friend. I will be booking again with Olivia!”
“Diane made sure our pup was well loved, fed, and felt right at home. She kept us updated with cute pictures and gave her lots of time outside. We had no concerns the moment we met her and would be more than happy to bring our doggie back next time we're in St. Augustine.”
“Tracy is a wonderful caretaker. This was Rosie’s first time with her. Tracy really focused on my dog, and spent time with her to make sure was happy and having fun. She left me a lot of updates to reassure me throughout the day. I know my dog was well taken care of and had fun at her home.”
“Dani did a great job with our pups. They seemed really comfortable in her home and all the doggie toys that she provided for them. We will definitely leave them with her again!”
“Brad took great care of Cole, who just started walking about 4 weeks ago after being paralyzed for 4 months. Brad's house was immaculate and geared toward taking care of dogs........ will use Brad again”
“As soon as both me and my dog met Joe and Kelli we both knew it would be a great match. You could tell right away that they are good, dog loving people. My dog is older but acts younger so when she sprained her leg while running around while in their care, they took the appropriate and immediate action that was needed. I felt very comfortable with my fur baby in their care. I couldn’t recommend them more!”
“She was a great last minute sitter! We traveled to Florida with our dog and he didn’t adjust well to the hotel, so she kept my dog while we went to a concert. She responds quickly, and her family is great! She has a loving dog of her own and the dogs had a great time playing!”

“I told Mary how nervous I was about her walking Hank because he is so reactive to other dogs and people she is amazing and so caring and made me feel sooo comfortable. 1000% recommend trusting her with your sweet pets!”
“Lindsey was a great cat sitter for us while we were out for a week during our wedding! She was flexible on us doing a last minute switch up on a few dates/times. It was clear early on that she was a very kind and loving sitter to our cat. Our boy is very social and she gave him lots of love and attention, she sent us tons of photos so we knew he was in good hands. Her response time was impeccable! We will absolutely look forward to booking Lindsey again when we need a sitter. Thank you Lindsey 🩷”
“Michelle did a wonderful job caring for our two cats, Mila and Rudy, during our 7-day trip. She was professional, reliable, and gave us peace of mind while we were away. She sent daily updates and photos whenever she could find our two little hiders, which we really appreciated! When we returned home, the litter boxes were clean, the water bowls were fresh, and most importantly, Mila and Rudy were happy and well cared for. It was clear that Michelle took her responsibilities seriously and treated our cats with kindness and care. We are grateful for her help and would be happy to have her watch Mila and Rudy again in the future. Highly recommend! 🐾💕”
“Willy Woo took a liking to Renee immediately during the meet and greet . He looked extremely content in the pictures and I was glad that he showed up for his “photo shoot” and his cookies,. Renee was also able to do the outdoor drop ins during the times requested and followed all of the instructions to a T. Thank you so much for taking care of Willie Woo, Paula.”
About: The great thing about cats is that the more time you spend with them, the more affectionate they become! I'm actually currently cat and house sitting, and I love it more everytime as the sweet kitties get more comfortable and loving with me😻I've been taking care of both cats and dogs for 25 years now, and there's nothing that I haven't done or am unwilling to do, for these majestic and awesome creatures. I have a home that is very animal friendly and I'd be happy and honored to have your furry(or hairless) pet's company at my house for any period of time. Or of course will gladly visit your home too. Whatever you or your animals need, I'm up to the task! I'm honest, friendly, a very hard worker and I have an infinite love for all animals. Please let me love your pet like they're my own, and give them a safe & nurturing feeling of home, even when you can't be with them💜 your pets and I are already best friends, we just haven't met yet😁 Thank you for your consideration -Kelly
About: Through volunteer work with a cat rescue organization, I’ve provided hands-on care for stray and highly timid cats. Working with both rescue cats and my own has given me a strong understanding of cat behavior, routines, and body language. I’ve been around cats since I was a baby and currently have three of my own. I’ve also cared for cats with special needs who required daily oral medication, so I’m familiar with medication administration. Keeping litter boxes clean is second nature, and I pay close attention to routines, behavior changes, litter box habits, and all the small details that help keep cats healthy, comfortable, and stress-free.
About: I specialize in cat care and understand their unique needs and personalities. I’m experienced with administering medications, grooming, and keeping litter boxes fresh and clean. I pay close attention to each cat’s routine and comfort, whether they’re playful kittens, shy adults, or senior cats needing extra care.
About: I've lived around cats my entire life. I have worked with cats both big (tigers, lions, leopards, and cougars), and small (my cat, Lilly). I currently have a 10 year old tabby who is my whole world. I've had to give her oral and topical medications before, I trim her claws myself, and give her a special diet, so I have experience with kittens and cats of all ages and sizes.
“Catherine is beyond beyond great! Cat took care of my cat Lacey in her home as if she wore her own. She genuinely loves animals which gave me a great piece of mind knowing Lacey was in the very best of care. Cat was accommodating, flexible, energetic, reliable… literally all of the things you could possibly be looking for in a pet sitter. I give her the highest of recommendations, and if there were more than five stars to give, I would give them. She’s awesome!!”
“Adri was on time, attentive to all of our furry friends’ needs, and watchful about everything going on at our house!! She communicated thoroughly and we had complete confidence that all of our needs were being met! We will definitely have our pets’ new best friend back to watch them again soon!!”
“Jenna was fantastic! Her love for animals shines through. She sent lots of updates and was super-flexible with our requests to accommodate our cats’ wacky feeding schedule — she even paid them an extra visit at the last minute when our return plane was delayed. We definitely will request her again to look after our guys!”
About: I have a soft spot for all animals and treat all pets as if they were my own. As I grew up around many types of animals since I was a kid, I know how much they mean to us. I make sure they are taken care of and loved! I have full time availability currently. I am usually up around 5/6am so I am happy to do early mornings. I am up for late night drop ins as well if needed. I do not have a yard but I love to take the dogs to parks and walk around. If they are potty trained, I am more than happy to keep them in my house.
“5/5 – Absolutely wonderful experience from start to finish! 🌟 Molly was an absolute gem as our cat and house sitter. From the moment we met for the meet & greet, she came across as so professional, thoughtful, and genuinely caring — she instantly put our minds at ease. She asked all the right questions, took detailed notes, and made us feel completely confident leaving our home and our shy boy, Black Fury, in her hands. During the sit, she went above and beyond in every way. Black Fury (who normally hides from anyone new for days) warmed up to her beautifully — I still can’t quite believe it! We received lovely regular updates with little stories about their day, which meant the world to us while we were away. Our home was looked after with such care, everything was spotless, and it honestly felt like Molly was just another member of the household. We are so grateful to have found someone so trustworthy, kind, and capable. It was truly a pleasure having her in our home, and we would welcome her back with open arms in a heartbeat. We’re already looking forward to booking her again next time we travel! Thank you so much, Molly — you’re the best! 🐾🏡”

“Christina was amazing with Max! He was so happy, relaxed, and felt completely at home with her. It’s clear she truly cares for the fur babies she looks after, and Max was comfortable from the very start. I’d highly recommend Christina to anyone looking for someone caring and trustworthy.”
“Katie was wonderful with Bella! She took her on a walk, played with her, made sure she stayed entertained, and even gave her some nap time. I really appreciated the detailed updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind while Bella was in her care. Katie is so friendly, personable, and clearly loves what she does. Bella had a great time, and I felt completely comfortable leaving her in Katie’s care. I would absolutely recommend Katie to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy sitter! 🐾💕”
“Rachel was a wonderful dog sitter for Rosie. My dog played all day with her dog and got a lot of exercise. She communicated with me throughout the day to give me updates about my dog. She made me feel comfortable having her as a person my dog will love to go see in the future visits”
“Truly amazing! I had been looking for a sitter and Bridget was quick to respond and reassuring my pup would be well taken care of, and she was! She was also accommodating with times, which I really appreciated too. My dog had a blast there with her dog and I loved the updates with pictures I received. Would definitely recommend her to those in need of a sitter!!”
About: What sets me apart is consistency, structure, and attention to detail. I work from home with a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide dependable, hands-on care throughout the day—not just quick drop-ins. I’m especially strong at maintaining routines, which helps pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I pay close attention to behavior, energy levels, and small changes so I can adjust care in real time. I’m experienced with: • Puppies and reinforcing basic routines (potty schedules, crate familiarity, structured play) • Adult dogs with regular exercise and enrichment needs • Senior pets who require a slower pace, patience, and closer monitoring • Multi-pet households with different needs and personalities Clear communication is a big priority for me—I provide regular updates and photos so owners always feel confident their pet is in good hands. I work from home and manage a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide consistent care and attention throughout the day. I structure my routine to accommodate pet needs first—whether that means morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening care. I am available for weekday and weekend bookings, including repeat schedules. Because I’m not tied to a traditional 9–5 outside the home, I can maintain reliable routines for feeding, walks, playtime, and companionship. Safety and trust are my top priorities. I take time to understand each pet’s personality, routines, and any specific needs before care begins. In my home: • Pets are supervised and kept in a calm, clean environment • I maintain a structured routine to reduce stress and keep pets comfortable • I avoid overcrowding to ensure each pet gets proper attention In clients’ homes: • I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding, medication, and routines • I respect your home and keep everything clean and secure • I provide regular updates, photos, and communication so you always know how your pet is doing I’m attentive to behavior, energy levels, and any signs of discomfort so I can respond quickly if anything seems off.
“Lovely family who went above and beyond to ensure my fur baby had fresh air and undivided attention. Excellent and prompt communication. Safe and reliable caregivers.”
“I highly recommend Lisa. It's always difficult to find someone to take care of pets last minute during the holidays. She responded quickly and welcomed my Suki with a lot of love. Thank you Lisa”
“Tracy is an exceptional caregiver. I have a 15 year old miniature pinscher that Tracy took care of for the day recently. Throughout the day, Tracy checked in with me via text, sending pics of my chilled out dog. I knew my dog was comfortable and calm when Tracy sent a pic of her begging for snacks. When I picked up my dog later that afternoon, she was relaxed and sleepy. Tracy is a consummate professional. After I contacted her about day care, we had a meet and greet so my dog could get acquainted with her. Tracy was on time and exhibited kindness and trustworthiness from the get go. She loves dogs and it showed. I hope to use her day care service again because I know my dog will be well taken care of. Compassion, kindness, and trustworthiness are qualities that Tracy possesses in abundance. I highly recommend her.”
“I am so grateful to have found Mariana to take care of my dog Bentley. She is a fantastic, caring and loving person and Bentley had a wonderful, fun, and safe time with Mariana. While I was out on vacation, Mariana took care of Bentley so professional and so sweet. I will leave Bentley again with Mariana without a doubt. Thank you.”
“We were so pleased with Cody and Angel's care. They love staying with Amy and her doggy's. We are very happy . Amy is wonderful looking forward to using the service with Amy alot in the future.”
About: As a proud pet owner, I have two rescue cats, a senior Australian Kelpie–Australian Shepherd rescue mix, and a three-year-old Bernese Mountain Dog. I understand how important it is to know your pets are safe, comfortable, loved, and entertained while you are away. Whether you are traveling, working, on vacation, or simply need help for a few hours, I will treat your pets like part of my own family. I grew up on a farm in Gilroy, California, surrounded by animals. Throughout both my childhood and adult life, I have remained actively involved in fostering and rescuing animals. I have fostered kittens, cats, dogs, and puppies, helped with Golden Retriever rescue, and raised and trained guide-dog puppies in hopes they would graduate and be placed with someone who was blind or deaf. Because my mom is deaf, service animals have always held a very special place in my heart. I am comfortable caring for puppies, senior pets, rescue animals, anxious pets, and animals with different personalities and energy levels. I can help with basic puppy training, medication administration, senior mobility support, feeding, walks, playtime, litter-box cleaning, and plenty of love and attention. I have a fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely enjoy supervised outdoor time. I also enjoy taking dogs on long walks and keeping pets active and entertained based on their individual needs. I am happy to send regular photos and updates so you can relax knowing your baby is happy and in good hands. Transportation may also be available upon request, and I am always willing to discuss any special routines or care instructions your pet may need. I own a plant business and work primarily from home, giving me a flexible schedule and open availability throughout the week. I’m able to provide frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, supervision, feeding, and companionship rather than leaving pets alone for long periods. In my home, pets receive close supervision, safe introductions, and a fully fenced backyard for monitored outdoor time. I follow each owner’s feeding schedule, medication instructions, training preferences, and household rules to keep their pet’s routine as familiar as possible. My dogs can be separated or crated when needed, and I never force interactions between animals. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect the home, secure doors and gates, clean up after each visit, and carefully follow all written instructions. I provide photo updates and communicate promptly about eating, bathroom habits, behavior, or anything unusual so owners always know how their pet is doing.
About: I am a single mom of a 20 old daughter who thinks she is a dog whisper and has never met a dog she doesn’t love. We love all types of dogs. I work full time and get home around 6pm. I am off every weekend and looking to earn some extra income. I am very honest and dependable. I’ve always had some type of animal in my life. I have a black mouth cur mix at home named Emory as well as a cat named Whiskey. Emory loves playing with other dogs and whiskey doesn’t mind them if they don’t mind him. I have experience with a wide range of dog breeds. I look forward to meeting and caring for your fur baby and or babies!! I work full time, but have open availability on the weekends. I usually enjoy going out for walks and taking advantage of the fresh air so figured why not make a little extra income and provide love and care for your fur baby at the same time! I do live in an apartment complex but I can still provide leashed walks or available to take them to the dog park if permitted!
“Nycole was an excellent communicator and is very dog savvy. She was particularly patient with our shy boy Waldo and did not push any boundaries. Her two business partners (dogs) were gracious host and would get along with any dog. We will be using her again for an overnight boarding in the next few weeks.”
“Millie took wonderful care of my pup, PuPu! I’m usually nervous about leaving him with someone new since he has separation anxiety, but she really put my mind at ease. Her lovely outdoor space was perfect for the dogs, and she sent pictures of PuPu having fun with her dog, Toby. When I picked him up, he looked happy, relaxed, and clearly had a great time. I would absolutely recommend Millie and will definitely book with her again!”
“Carolyn took great care of my Dustin boy!! She kept me updated with photos and messages throughout the day! Will definitely be using her again to watch my sweet boy. Thank you!”
“Today was my first time staying with Miss Eliza P. My mom is trying to find a place where I can have play fun days. I played with the other doggies and she sent my mom a video. I was all ready when it was pick up time with my leash and all. Looking forward to next week's stay. Thank you”
About: My dad is a veterinarian, I am very lucky since that allows me to know how to vaccinate animals and even suture an emergency wound, what to do in cases where a puppy is fading due to its consumption of some food or to act in case of poisoning I am currently working part time that allows me to take care of and play with your pet after 3 in the afternoon during the week and also on weekends The neighborhood is very quiet and we have nearby parks if you want me to take your dog to one, in winter we could look for options to protect your dogs pads from the snow and the cold
“Olivia is so friendly and greeted out pups in a way you can tell she is kind & nurturing with dogs. Our dogs liked her right away. She accommodated our travel schedule. Our youngest pup was nervous being on her first big trip, so Olivia gave her special attention and a cozy, quiet place where she felt comfortable. We are so appreciative of Olivia's TLC for our beloved dogs.”

“Hanna is as sweet as my dog lol. She always shows up on time and with a good attitude. She gives the dog a great walk and my dog is starting to get excited when she thinks Hanna is coming. I would highly recommend her.”
About: Hey there, you can call me Bee! :) I've had a mix of animals my whole life, from goats and chickens and cats and dogs in my childhood, to my own small zoo today! I have three cats and a dog at home, and as a result I have experience handling multiple animal personalities and making sure they all feel safe and comfortable during transitions, such as going to the vet, meeting a new friend, etc. I love to walk and enjoy taking my dog along so she can really soak up the sun and burn off energy. I am available for early morning drop-ins, as well as fully available after 4pm during the week! Weekends are completely open. :) No matter how long or short the visit, I’ll treat your pet like my own and make sure their needs are met each time. I ensure that my home is a clean environment safe for pets at ALL times. This means no human food left unsupervised, no toxic plants, and no access to chemicals/medications/other no-nos. I also enjoy catering to pets' needs, whether that is hyper playtime or serene strolls!
“Nathalia was great! She was professional & very prompt even though she was 30mins away from me. I used Nathalia for walking my dog while I recover from foot surgery. My anxious dog warmed up to her and they did great together! I would recommend Nathalia! ☺️”

“Adrienne did an excellent job of walking my two labs twice while I was gone for the day. Her communication was great, even sending pictures of the dogs. I will definitely use her again when I am back to st. Augustine’”
About: I have grown up with pets my whole life! I love animals of all kinds! Currently, I have two dogs that are 3 & 5. I also recently adopted a cat of my own, and he is the sweetest thing ever! Currently, I am a Junior at Flagler College! I work remote for my job in Maryland, but I also am working on my own pet sitting business, I Stay, U Go!! While I do not take dogs in my own home, when it comes to the clients home I work pretty much entirely from there house, but may have to go into work from time to time. Usually when I go, I’m gone for no more than about 4-5 hours.
About: I have a soft spot for all animals and treat all pets as if they were my own. As I grew up around many types of animals since I was a kid, I know how much they mean to us. I make sure they are taken care of and loved! I have full time availability currently. I am usually up around 5/6am so I am happy to do early mornings. I am up for late night drop ins as well if needed. I do not have a yard but I love to take the dogs to parks and walk around. If they are potty trained, I am more than happy to keep them in my house.
About: I provide calm, attentive and reliable care for dogs of all breeds, sizes and ages — including puppies, seniors and dogs who need a slower, more grounded presence. I currently care for five dogs of my own, all with different personalities and needs, so I’m very comfortable managing routines, walks, feeding schedules, medications and individual care. I pay close attention to a dog’s emotional state and adjust pace, structure and energy accordingly. My approach is steady and respectful. Dogs tend to settle quickly with me and many clients tell me their dogs are calmer and happier after our walks. I prioritize safety, communication and consistency and I treat every dog as if they were my own. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine, and I’m able to be flexible with scheduling. I plan my days to ensure dogs receive consistent attention, exercise, and care without rushing. I prioritize safety, clear routines, and calm handling at all times. I follow owner instructions carefully, use secure leashes, and pay close attention to each dog’s comfort, behavior, and surroundings, whether in my home or theirs.
About: Just moved to Saint Augustine from Colorado where I had experience caring for lots of animals. Dogs, cats, ferrets, bunnies, tortoises and turtles. I just love animals and happy to meet yours! I do this on the side and will only accept when I am fully available. I have one older shitzu and 2 ferrets but can keep separate if needed. Both. I live in apartment so I would only take one at a time so that I can provide individual care. I have two ferrets and an older Shih Tzu.
About: I'm a professional and responsible caretaker of 25 years now, of dogs, cats, children, the elderly and residential family homes as well as commercial properties, and I love it more with each passing year! I am a personable and energetic companion, with an infinite amount of love for all animals. There's nothing that I'm unable to do and no job too big or too small. I value this opportunity to be your best friend's home away from home and give them all of the love that you would give to them, because they deserve it and so do you! It such a rewarding and touching experience to enjoy the same animals loving me more and more over time, and eventually just being affectionate as can be! I love knowing that I can send you pictures(as often as you'd like) of your fur baby, giving you relief and knowing that not only is your dog safe and nurtured, but happy and loved! I've always said that I just want to cuddle with dogs all day and still pay my bills haha. Although I was mostly joking, how amazing is it that I can actually make that dream a reality!!😻 Maybe mans' best friend but your dog is also my best friend too...if you could please just help to introduce us to each other. Thank you for your consideration Best Kelly I will be out of town August 17th -23rd, 2026 camping in Yellowstone! But other than that one week period, I am fully available for any booking, for any amount of time. I treat every animal as if they were my own child! It's hard enough to be away from their parents at all, so I am just as positive, affectionate, loving and comforting as I can possibly be, so your pets feel comfortable and at peace. I communicate with the pet and/ or homeowner to find out exactly what they expect from me, and always write down all of the specifics of animal care(food & water and frequency, medicines, restrictions, if they go outside or stay inside, things they like or find comfort in like their favorite toy or treat to ensure that feel as much at home as I can make them feel) so I don't forget anything important! I usually reread the list everyday that I'm there, just to be sure not to miss anything. Lastly I always spend the last hour or day cleaning up after myself & the pet, to leave things nicer than I found them. Whether it's taking their trashcan to the road and gathering their mail, along with washing their dishes and making sure the bathroom and kitchen are nice & clean for them to come home to. Or it could be giving the dog a bath if I'm not house sitting as well. Basically if you're going to pay me to do something, I'm going to make it worth your while and be as helpful, clean and efficient as possible! Just a basic rundown in addition to feeding and walking and picking up after said animal, I like to go above and beyond what is expected of me. I reach for the best customer service I can possibly provide, to hopefully create a very happy dog and parents, as well as a repeat customer! If you hire me, you will not regret it! Thank you for your consideration -Kelly
About: I have cared for pets since birth coming from an animal loving family. It is my upmost belief that our furry friends are apart of our family so they deserve to be treated with the upmost love and care. I am an 8.5 year United States Navy veteran. I set aside time daily to have the opportunity to care for pets in need of care. I currently do not have any other pets in home so I am destined to have my full undivided focus on your extended family member/ members.
About: Animals have always held a special place in my heart, and caring for them comes naturally to me. I have experience with dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to sweet seniors, and I understand the unique attention each one needs. Whether it’s keeping up with high energy, giving medications, or just offering extra snuggles, I’m committed to making your pet feel safe, loved, and at home. I always grew up with multiple animals in my household! What sets me apart is my genuine connection with animals and the attention I give to the little things—daily routines, favorite toys, and those tail-wagging moments that matter most. I treat every pet like family, because that’s what they are. I am working to make money for my masters program that I am taking in the UK. I am available and can do whatever is needed and wanted to make your pet feel loved and cared for! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. Whether I’m caring for them in your home or mine, I always make sure they’re in a calm, clean, and secure environment. I stick closely to your pet’s usual routine to reduce stress and keep things familiar—whether that means feeding schedules, walks, playtime, or cuddle time. I take the time to get to know each pet’s personality, needs, and preferences, and I always keep open communication with owners so you feel confident and at ease. You can count on me to treat your furry friend with the same love, patience, and respect I’d give my own.

“Sarah was amazing and kept me up to date on my pup throughout the whole weekend and I was nervous my dog wasn’t gunna want to come home because she was having so much fun! Highly recommend her 🐾”
“100% RECOMMENDED!! Aura took great care of Chloe. She was happy to have space to run. Aura's cat is very friendly and wasn't bothered by Chloe's presence. I would definitely book again. Chloe has a new friend. Thank you so much.”
“If I could give a million stars it would still not be enough. Danielle is an amazing person who went above and beyond for my pet while we were away. Her pup Nyla is the sweetest, and I am pretty sure my dog is already missing his new friend. Danielle’s entire family welcomed, spoiled, and lovingly cared for my dog. It was better than a trip to Disneyland for him, and everything a pet parent could ask for while away. Words cannot recommend her enough.”
“Katie absolutely sets the bar for dog sitters. Just WOW. Simon loved her from the second he met her. The entire setup was amazing, from the backyard to the overall environment she’s created for the dogs. You can immediately tell how knowledgeable she is, how much she genuinely loves dogs, and how comfortable she makes them feel. We’ve had some great sitters before (and unfortunately some not so great ones too), but Katie is truly on another level. Simon had an amazing time, and we had complete peace of mind the entire stay. Could not recommend her more highly.”
“They took amazing care of my babies! Not once did I feel worried for them and they sent plenty of pictures so I knew they were having a great time! Will be rebooking with them from now on.”
“We had such a great experience boarding our dog with Taqueria! She took amazing care of our pup and gave us peace of mind the entire time. We loved the picture updates and messages—our dog looked so happy and well-loved. You can truly tell she cares. We will definitely be booking with her again! 🐶💕”
“5 Stars – Wonderful Experience! I couldn't be more pleased with the care my puppy Mylie received from Olivia! From the moment I dropped off Mylie off, I felt completely at ease. Olivia is incredibly warm, friendly, and professional, and she took the time to learn about my Mylie. Additionally, Mylie and her puppy became great friends! I would recommend Olivia to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter for their furry friend. I will be booking again with Olivia!”
“Diane made sure our pup was well loved, fed, and felt right at home. She kept us updated with cute pictures and gave her lots of time outside. We had no concerns the moment we met her and would be more than happy to bring our doggie back next time we're in St. Augustine.”
“Tracy is a wonderful caretaker. This was Rosie’s first time with her. Tracy really focused on my dog, and spent time with her to make sure was happy and having fun. She left me a lot of updates to reassure me throughout the day. I know my dog was well taken care of and had fun at her home.”
“Dani did a great job with our pups. They seemed really comfortable in her home and all the doggie toys that she provided for them. We will definitely leave them with her again!”
“She was a great last minute sitter! We traveled to Florida with our dog and he didn’t adjust well to the hotel, so she kept my dog while we went to a concert. She responds quickly, and her family is great! She has a loving dog of her own and the dogs had a great time playing!”
“Amelia and her family were absolutely amazing!!! My husband and I were on the way to Jacksonville for a weekend trip, and realized last minute that our stay did not allow pets. Amelia responded immediately and was very helpful and friendly! Throughout his stay she sent many pictures and videos of our Stanley having a ball with her other dog and children. If we’re ever in the area again we will definitely be reaching out to her!”
“Brittany was great! We highly recommend her as a trusted sitter. She took great care of our dog which allowed us to relax while we were on our trip. She sent pictures every day and was always good with communicating. She treated our dog wonderfully and we’ll contact her again if we return to Florida.”
“10/10 experience with Yessica & Ray! They met us and our dogs ahead of time, asking all kinds of questions so that they could care for them best while we were away. While we were gone, we got multiple photos every day, with a little update on how our pups were doing. I felt confident that my dogs were in good hands, safe and having fun.”
“Churro had so much fun at Vigi's house! We were impressed with how many videos and pictures we received while we were away! And Churro ate all of her food, which is unusual for overnight stays! Highly recommend Vigi!”
“Mary we appreciate your love you have Luna while we were on vacation. Your daily updates and pictures put us at ease. Thank you so very much for taking care of her! ❤️”
“Madison did such a great job with all my babies. She took care of my two cats and two dogs. I got picture updates which really gave me a peace of mind. When I picked them up they were happy and looked like they had a good time with all the other puppers! I will definitely be booking with her again.”
“Lisa was a great sitter! We got lots of pictures, videos and updates. Our dog had so much outdoor playtime and other dog friends to play with. This is a great house where he got lots of attention from everyone in the family. We will definitely Use for booking again. Thank you, Lisa!”
