Allie was great. My kitty Suki who has anxiety loved her, played with her and let her pet her. She even took out the garbage for us without me asking. Allie brought in the mail, sent pics of Suki and watered plants too. Excellent! I highly recommend and will ask for her again.

Holly and Jace were great, I’m going away for a work trip next week, so I scheduled them for a drop in visit before my trip so they could get acquainted with my 2 dogs. It gives me peace of mind knowing I can trust my babies with someone while I’m away!

About: Hi! I’m Marianna, a lifelong animal lover offering drop-in visits, boarding, and overnight stays for both dogs and cats. Animals are truly part of my family. I share my home with my amazing Golden Lab, Phoebe, who is incredibly well-behaved, gentle, and adventurous — she goes paddle boarding, loves the water, and is even a diver! Phoebe is a Theraphy dog . She is a calm, confident, and friendly role model for other dogs. We also have two wonderful cats: Pharaoh (Abyssinian) and Phoenix (Scottish Fold). They are very social, affectionate, and used to being around dogs, so our home is a peaceful, happy, and interactive environment for all pets. I’m certified in Pet First Aid & CPR for both cats and dogs, so your pet’s safety is always a top priority. In addition to loving care, I also offer support with behavioral training and confidence building. I’ve personally trained my own 2.5-year-old pup to a very high level of obedience, and I enjoy helping other dogs feel calm, safe, and well-mannered. Our home features a fenced yard, a swimming pool (with supervision), and plenty of space to play, rest, and relax in a loving, low-stress environment. Whether your pet loves to cuddle, play, swim, or simply nap in the sun, they will feel right at home here. I treat every animal as if they were my own — with patience, kindness, and respect. I would be honored to care for your furry family while you’re away 🐶🐱💛 Ps . For safety, any signs of prey drive toward cats (staring, lunging, chasing) will result in immediate separation or early pick-up. That’s why Meet and Greet is a MUST for me. I keep a flexible schedule so your pet receives calm, unhurried attention, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. I’m available for boarding, daycare, and drop-ins on both weekdays and weekends, and I intentionally limit how many pets I take (1-2 great pets at a time ONLY) to ensure each one feels safe, relaxed, and truly cared for. I provide a safe, calm, and loving environment in my home with a fenced yard for supervised outdoor play. Dogs are always monitored, kept on routine, and can be crated if needed. I follow owner instructions closely, prioritize cleanliness, and make sure every pet feels comfortable, secure, and cared for like family.

About: I've had dogs and cats my whole life so I have a lot of experience caring for them. They become my family and I love them dearly. I treat them better than most people treat their children. I would do anything for them, and I would treat any other pet the exact same way, as if they were my own. I live in a house with a fenced in backyard, great for running and playing. I live in a safe neighborhood with large sidewalks that are great for afternoon walks. I have a standard poodle and a mini-poodle who love to run and play together, they would make your pet feel welcomed and right at home. I also have two cats that are very friendly and loves the dogs. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I plan my schedule around visits, ensuring, consistent, reliable care, timely walks, feedings, and regular updates. I follow each pets routine closely, including feeding, walks, medications, and playtime. I maintain a clean, safe environment and provide regular updates for peace of mind.

About: I have loved animals my entire life and grew up on a farm caring for animals of all sizes, from rabbits to horses. Through the years I have gained experience caring for a variety of pets and understand that every animal has its own personality, needs, and routine. I currently have three dogs of my own, and they are a huge part of my life. I also regularly care for neighbors’ pets while they are at work, running errands, or out of town. Whether your pet needs walks, feeding, playtime, companionship, or extra attention, I am committed to providing loving and dependable care. I work as a per diem Occupational Therapy Assistant, which allows me to maintain a flexible schedule. This flexibility gives me the opportunity to accommodate your pet’s needs and routine as closely as possible. Weekend availability is typically open as well. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I will carefully follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, exercise routines, and any special requests you may have. I am also happy to provide updates and photos so you can feel confident your pet is receiving excellent care while you are away. I look forward to meeting you and your pet and caring for them as if they were part of my own family. I currently work per diem as an occupational therapy assistant. My schedule is very flexible to be able to care for your fur babies on your time frame. The weekends I typically have open availability. I live in a single family home with a large fenced in yard. I have three dogs that love to run and play! We have a dog park 5 minutes from our home that we enjoy going to. I have two children that love playing tug of war and fetch with the dogs! My husband also enjoys cuddling the fur babies just as much as I do if not more!

About: Having 5 dogs of my own and training them gives me the ability to care for your dog. I have the dedication to care for your family members. I understand your pets needs and behaviors and will treat your pet as a family member not just another dog. This kind of dedication is essential when looking after someone else's pet, as I understand the importance of exercise, socialization, and consistent training. I have special skills and experiences, such as: - Training Technique: Any particular methods you use I will be able to ensure that they continue under the best behavior. - Socialization Skills: Having pets socialize will help your dogs interact positively with others. - Health and Safety: I have the knowledge about dog health, nutrition, and first aid to keep your pet safe while you are away. - Flexibility: I have flexibility to cater to your needs as well as your pets. I’m currently retired and have lots of free time now. I would love to take care of your pet/family member in a nice safe environment anytime during the week. I have a pet friendly home and pet friendly fences in yard. My golden just loves to spend time and play with her pet friends.

Debbie was a fabulous caregiver to my cat, Hadrian. She was incredibly attentive to his needs, even going as far as to adjust our original planned schedule to address his finicky eating habits. When I returned home from my 9 day trip, Hadrian was happy and well-adjusted. I appreciated Debbie's daily reports and pictures, and I was overjoyed to come home to find Hadrian's litter box area well swept. It was nice to not have to worry about cleaning the floor after a long plane ride. Debbie rocks!

About: I lived on a farm growing up and I grew my love for animals. My family has had dogs and cats since I was six. I have worked for a weimerianer breeder and now work as a Lead Shelter Specialist at the Humane Society at Lakewood Ranch. I’ve been in this position for over 3 years. I work with all breeds, temperaments/behaviors, and medical issues. I love to train dogs and I also do light grooming. I work full time at the shelter but I love working with dogs and cats so much I would love to do it in my free time. My apartment has a cute park behind it that is great for potty walks. I also live 5 minutes from a dog beach and park that I love to take my own dog to. I use lamb treats for dogs and chicken treats for cats. I have a medium sized crate available just in case or if a dog is nervous. I use dog shoes that can fit a variety of breeds so their paw pads don’t get blistered from the hot pavement. As well as 24/7 access to water and lots of toys.
