“Virginia is hands down the best dog sitter ever! My pup Kiwi absolutely adored her—he was more excited to see her in the morning than me in the afternoon! 🐶 She sent tons of pictures and videos throughout the day, which made me feel so at ease. Kiwi also became best friends with her sweet dog, Cozy, and it was the cutest thing watching them play together in the videos she sent. It was clear she treated Kiwi like her own, with so much love and care. I would 100% trust her again and will definitely be coming back to her. Highly recommend!😊”


“How did we know our princess was in good hands? When she literally ran up the steps to see her new BFF Penny. Can't forget to mention Amanda and Matthew are amazing. It's nice to know we can leave our girl and know she will be loved and cared for.”


“I left Thunder with Taylor for about a week, and she was fantastic! She kept me updated regularly with photos and messages, and he came back happy and well cared for. I highly recommend her”


“Danielle is one of the best I've found on Rover! She was very communicative and so great with my Theo. She sent me tons of pictures and several updates throughout the day which made me feel so much more comfortable. I would definitely bring Theo over to stay with her whenever I am in Tampa again! <3”



“Lori is amazing as always! I have a new puppy and Lori took great care of her like she has her big sister for so many years. Both my older dog and my puppy literally drag me into Lori's house because they love her and her family sooo much! It's really great! Thank you Lori! You truly are the best of the BEST! 😊”

About: Hi, I’m McKay—lifelong dog-lover, proud pup parent (George, Golden Retriever, 80 lbs), and now working from home full-time. With 20 years of experience caring for dogs of all ages and sizes, I create a loving, structured, and fun-filled atmosphere in my apartment home. I work from home Monday - Friday and am available for drop in visits, daycare or boarding for your fur baby. As a dog mom myself, it's easy to incorporate another pup into my day-to-day. I’ll treat your fur baby just like my own: - Constant attention and supervision while working remotely - Frequent potty breaks (every 4–8 hrs) and daily walks/playtime in safe neighborhood or fenced area - Positive reinforcement and gentle handling - Regular photo updates and open communication so you’re always in the loop


“Luna and Xena had a fabulous day with Thais, Kevin and their new pals Linda and Bart! We had to go out of town for the afternoon - evening and wouldn’t be back until 10 pm that evening. They were so accommodating - and sent regular updates and pictures throughout their stay. Xena was in her glory as she got to enjoy the pool. The dogs all seemed to get along so well, and when we picked up the girls, they were very happy and very tired from an exciting day. We can’t wait to bring them back and we highly recommend them.”


“Very kind. This is my first time trusting someone to watch my dog for me and Nicole helped easy my nerves from the beginning! She allowed me to introduce my dog (who is very anxious and demonstrates unsure and slightly aggressive behavior towards unknown animals) with her dog before hand to ensure both pets safety. She also messaged me different updates and pictures throughout the night. I felt very comfortable leaving my dog with her and would recommend her in a heart beat!”


About: I have been surrounded by dogs ever since I was young. I have experience with watching relatives dogs, and I take care of my dog everyday. I currently attend school and I don’t have class on Tuesdays and Thursdays so I will be very attentive to the animal. I also only have class for a couple of hours when I do. There is a play area for dogs because my apartment is dog friendly. The area is very safe and the dog will be taken great care of.

About: I grew up with dogs and I always love helping out my friends and family when they need pet sitters or walkers. I helped my parents' dog recover and rehabilitate from an ACL reconstruction surgery. I am a medical professional who is experienced in emergency situations. I am in an apartment near the Manatee River with my girlfriend and puppy, Flynne. Flynne loves making friends with new dogs and puppies. I work during the morning into the afternoons as of now. I'm pretty free most days after 1pm but would try to make things as convenient as possible for you and your pup. Near my apartment complex is a beautiful trail along the Manatee River. I have a lot of space to walk away from traffic and avoid the busy streets.

“So fortunate to have found Rachel. She has a cozy comfortable place for my two dogs. Her two cats and one dog are so sweet and friendly. I’d recommend her a hundred times.!”


“Akshata took really good care of Bella! She sent pictures of Bella sleeping and playing and she was having fun! When I picked her up at night she was super happy. Thank you Akshatha!”

McKay W.
“McKay has watched Cooper multiple times now and we will continue to hire her every time we go out of town! Cooper absolutely adores her and her dog, George. (Literal full blown excitement to the point where he will jump in her car trying to go home with her when she pulls up). He has so much fun, it’s his own vacation while we are on vacation and I can leave with peace of mind that McKay takes care of Cooper like he is her own! McKay does an amazing job of providing lots of photo and video updates so we can see his cute face while we are gone. HIGHLY recommend to anyone out there looking for a sitter that goes above and beyond.”
