Alec was amazing! Incredibly attentive and our dog Mabel absolutely loved him. Alec cared for Mabel for a little over a week and provided constant communication and pics so we knew she was being well cared for. I can not recommend Alec enough!

I love Stephanie so much. I almost want to deter you from working with her so I have her to myself for My pup, but she is too good and I can’t lie about that.

The good part of vacation is time off and going new places. The bad part of vacation is leaving our pups at home. But Jenna and Greg did such a wonderful job taking care of them that we were able to relax and enjoy ourselves because we were never worried. Thank you so much!!

Amy was the best, we are so lucky to have found her! She took care of our large dog Luna who is very sweet but also doesn't know her own strength sometimes. Amy is great at handling all sizes of dogs. She kept us informed every day and took good care of our house too. We (including Luna) highly recommend!

Natasha stayed overnight to watch our dog on our wedding night. She made the whole process easy, sent photos and updates and was great! Our dog loved her right away at the first meet and greet. This was our first experience with a dog sitter and we had full confidence in her and would recommend to others! Thanks Natasha!

About: I’ve dog sat for people on vactations, overnight, and even cat-sat. I enjoy going on walks with the dogs and will make sure they are hydrated and safe in the florida heat! I am free every day of the week for boarding, doggy daycare, and overnight stays. I am available for dog walks every morning, afternoon, and evening as well. There are just sometimes walking limitations during noon. There are no other pets in my apartment currently. In my clients home, I will take them on walks and help them go potty and feed them at the required times people need. If your dog is one that wakes up in the middle of the night to use the restroom, that is okay too.

When we got home, Rocky said he had a great time! All joking aside, Emily was extremely easy to work with. We had great communication and didn’t worry about anything. We felt comfortable leaving our dog in her care. She even sent some photos which was very thoughtful. She accommodated all our requests and we were extremely happy. Rocky can’t wait for us to go away again! We will be using her again, and highly recommend her for her services.

About: Hi! I’m Alexa! I’m a student, a dog lover and future teacher. I’m a lifelong dog lover who’s grown up surrounded by pups—currently have 4. I take care of my own dogs, so I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry bestie.I treat every dog I meet like my own. I’ve experienced all stages—from playful puppies to sweet seniors. I’m currently a student and student teaching. My schedule is pretty flexible you may reach out and ask questions. Weekends usually always available. Weekdays I work until about 330pm, off for most holidays. Since my home is already full with my own four dogs, I don’t offer care at my place. Instead, I can care for pets in the comfort of their own home or take for walks when needed.

This was our first time using an in home dog sitter. Chiara was absolutely wonderful with our two dogs, Max and Caramel. From the moment we left, she kept us updated every day with messages, photos, and videos. We came home to two happy, well-cared-for dogs and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I would highly recommend Chiara to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and reliable pet sitter. We will absolutely be using her again in the future!

2nd time using Alex for 9 days as an in house sitter. Fantastic job as usual. It's such a relief knowing our boy is being taken care of by someone who cares about him. We were updated several times a day with pictures and we were in constant contact. We will always use Alex when he is available and I would highly recommend his services. He's the best.

Lenora was absolutely amazing. She stayed in our home and took care of our dog, Cloud, for 5 days, and we couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. She was attentive, reliable, and clearly gave Cloud so much love and care. We received regular updates after walks along with plenty of adorable photos, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Our home was well cared for, and Cloud was happy, relaxed, and clearly comfortable with her. Lenora is hands-down the best sitter we’ve found here, and we would 100% book her again in the future. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust.
