Natalie was amazing with my dog Ralo! He was so happy to see her, and she gave him so much love and attention during their visit. She stayed the full hour, sent plenty of updates, and even took him for a walk. I felt completely at ease knowing he was in great hands. Highly recommend — I’ll definitely be booking her again!

Jordan has done an outstanding job caring for our dog. She consistently arrives early for her scheduled visits and often stays longer than planned. I've even noticed my dog sitting by the door, eagerly waiting for her to arrive, which shows just how much he enjoys his time with her.

Sophia is amazing!! She did a wonderful job taking care of my cat Oreo. Oreo is a loving cat also and looked forward to Sophia’s daily visits. He would start meowing before she could even open the door. She cleaned up his litter that he tracked through the house and ensured he got a full 30 minutes of playtime. She also checked that he had fresh water daily. I would definitely use her again if I’m out of town.

About: Caring for pets has always been one of my greatest joys. I love spending time with animals, whether it's a leisurely stroll around the block, playing fetch at the park, or giving them plenty of pets/belly rubs at home. Growing up with dogs, and gaining experience with a variety of dogs (&cats!) since then, has made me confident and attentive in providing personalized care. I've also had the pleasure of regularly volunteering at the Humane Society of Tampa Bay where I walk, play, and give lots of love to dogs in need. From energetic pups to more relaxed seniors, I've gotten to know the different needs and personalities of many dogs. With me, your pet is guaranteed to be treated like family! I have a flexible schedule and work different hours each day, which allows me to accommodate pets with varying needs. I am able to provide care for your pet before work or during the late afternoons and evenings once I'm off. I also am off on Friday's which gives me extra availability to spend with your pet. I'm happy to work around your pet's needs and adjust to a schedule that works for you. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priority. I ensure a secure environment at all times, whether at home or during walks, and follow any specific instructions you provide for your pet's care. I'm a responsible and trustworthy sitter, and I always treat each pet as if they were my own. You can have peace of mind knowing your pet is in caring and capable hands.

Bekah was a star sitter!! The best we've had so far. You could tell she really cared for Diesel and spent her time playing with him and giving him so much love during her visit. She followed everything I had asked her to do & more. She cleaned up after Diesel and made sure he had everything he needed. She locked up afterwards and made sure Diesel was set before leaving. I couldn't have asked for anything more. Hoping to hire her again!

About: I have had dogs and cats since I was 3 and have been both dog and cat sitter in the past. I have cats personally but looking forward for long walks with puppies when I can! I work remote and have a very flexible schedule. I can take pets for walks or just come spend quality time with your loved one I live in an apartment with cats of my own, so I will not be able to board pets. I am able to go check in as much as needed

About: I have some training experience Over 5yrs experience Dogs of all shapes and sizes Personalized care My longest running client is a Pitbull named Bear who, when i first met him would be very anxious on walks. Through years of working with him he's now a much more confident walker. So please believe me when I say I love dogs of all shapes, sizes and personalities. I did recently start working in the area. I'm still very new to the area. I can usually accommodate upon requests. More so if scheduled in advance. Within my over 5 yrs experience caring for puppers I have cared for them at both my house and at my client's house. I have always maintained a clean environment, personalized care in that I will maintain your rules concerning your dog. Above ALL else I MUST maintain trust with my clients. If you or your dog don't trust me then I can't do my job and worse yet it's usually the dog that suffers in the long run.

Amanda did an amazing job taking care of my cat Teddy! He has been going through a lot and is on new medication, but Amanda gave him his meds no problem. She was great at scooping his litter box and cleaning up after him. She’s an amazing sitter, will definitely use again!

Couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for Oakley. She was reliable, communicative, sent great updates/photos, and clearly cared about him like he was her own. Oak can be high energy and she handled him perfectly. It gave me a ton of peace of mind knowing he was in good hands while I was away. Highly recommend and will absolutely book again.
