Christine was awesome with our dog, Kenji. I booked her a bit last minute and she was so accommodating with stopping by for a meet and greet preset quickly. She came and walked her and played with our cat while Kenji ate her food. Highly recommend her.😊

Brandon and Katie are the ultimate professionals! We have used them many times for the past year and have been extremely happy. We think Zoey loves them more than she loves us.

First I have to say that Amanda was punctual and professional upon arrival, she even asked me about Ezra’s water intake during walks, and rest stops. Ezra greeted Amanda without any hesitation, and when they came back Ezra was so happy and tired ( exactly what we were looking for). Amanda has a great approach to dogs, within minutes of interacting with my dog, you can tell she is an expert, that’s been around dogs and cats her entire life. We can’t wait to use her services more often and so glad that we found a reliable professional in our area!

About: I’ve had pets since I was a young girl. There was always a dog and cats in the house, so caring for animals has always come naturally to me. I recently lost my dog to old age, and I really miss that daily companionship, which is why I’d love to help care for other people’s pets. I’ve pet sat for friends, family, and neighbors over the years, and now I’m ready to open that up to more families. I’m comfortable with both dogs and cats, and I have two cats of my own. I’m patient, attentive, and I treat every pet like they’re my own—making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m reliable and easy to communicate with, and I’ll always keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. I’m home most of the day, so I have a flexible schedule and can give your pet plenty of attention and care. I do have two kids, so with a little advance notice I’m happy to plan ahead and make sure I’m fully available for your pet’s needs. I’m an active person and enjoy going on walks, so dogs will get plenty of movement and time outside. I’m available for drop-ins, walks, and sitting during the week and weekends, and I can adjust to your pet’s routine to keep things consistent and stress-free. I have a fenced backyard, and pets are always supervised when they’re outside. Most of the day they’ll be with me, so they’re not left alone for long. I handle all feeding, walks, and care myself to keep things consistent and done right. I have two cats that are indoor and outdoor. They’re friendly and used to being around other animals, but they mostly keep to themselves and won’t bother your pet. My home is calm, clean, and safe. My kids are gentle and love animals, and I always make sure interactions are respectful and supervised. I treat every pet like my own and do my best to make them feel comfortable and at home while you’re away.

About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs of different breeds and temperaments. I’ve had my own American Cocker Spaniel and also grew up with a Boxer, so I’m comfortable with both gentle companion dogs and more energetic breeds. I also have a grooming certificate and worked as a dog bather in Virginia for several months, where I gained practical experience handling dogs, keeping them calm during grooming, and ensuring their comfort and safety. In addition, I volunteered at dog adoption events, helping care for dogs in new and sometimes stressful environments. This experience taught me how to read dog behavior, build trust quickly, and support dogs as they adjust. I am patient, attentive, and always adjust my approach to each dog’s personality to make them feel safe and cared for. I currently work part-time, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time to provide attentive pet care. I can easily fit dog walks, playtime, and visits into my daily routine, and I make sure each pet gets the time and attention they need. I’m also very comfortable maintaining a cat’s routine — including feeding, litter care, playtime, and quiet companionship. I provide care exclusively in my clients’ homes, where pets feel most comfortable and secure in their familiar environment. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning for cats, walks for dogs, and playtime or companionship based on their needs. I always take time to build trust with each pet, especially shy or sensitive ones, and I adjust my approach to match their personality. My goal is to keep them calm, safe, and cared for while their owners are away.

About: I enjoy walking and playing, and all the animals I have had the pleasure of taking care of benefit from that. My bloodhound /lab up north had high anxiety and high energy when we took her in, and after a few weeks of long walks twice a day she calmed down. My jack Russel was also high strung until her walks and playing. I live close to a park and to a trail which I walk to daily. I live in a peaceful area and my back yard is a bird haven. I have plenty of time, room, and love for your pet. I have taken care of friends, neighbors, and relatives pets for many years up north, and now I am ready to be your pets friend in the south. My house is set up to have plenty of room for any size dog. We are always outside and I live very close to a park.

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.
