This was an amazing sit for a variety of reasons . To be met by the host with a cheerful “”hello young Lady “‘when you clearly are NOT must be a super start !. And In a sImIlar veIn , the lightheartedness continued , as Rosetta is a loving , vivacious woman whom I could feel just adored her doggies . Actually Gary did too, !! HE just had a different way of showing it !!!! Ie instructing me how to encourage the elderly setters to go out in the evening and persuading them in a voice suited for light opera that they really did want to go out ! I joke . Rosetta clearly described the medications for her Woofahs . Yes ! It DID take some mathematics and planning , but the love and adoration of five beautiful doggies more than compensated . And the contInual reassurIng pattern of fIve waggIng taIls agaInst floor or cupboard lIke dIggy metronomes . Unparalled musIc ! I do not do sits to run around the countryside . The animals are my priority ,so it was no hardship to oversee pee pees and general toilet . Especially when you are in a charming beamed 16 century cottage adjacent to Hunstanton Hall , surrounded by a moat . Yes! A MOAT . The growing light of day , the calm of sunset over the Norfolk coast , the chatter of exquIsItely ducks unknown to me and bedtime embraced by pitch dark starlit skies with a furry friend POGLE , who has to be experienced to be believed !! IrIsh Setters who put their paws on my heart and two other faithful life affirming Spaniels . Oh how I loved them !!! And bless you both , for being so complimentary and gracious regarding the very rustic macaroni cheese and apple crumble . It’s people like you that help Trusted Housesitters achieve their record and encourage happiness . With very much love and smiles , Wilma xx
We loved our stay so much! Petter is a sweet cat, he knows exactly what he wants, he has his own entrance and likes to feel free. You will not have any problem with him. And he makes very loud "purr sound" when you cuddle him. We miss him already! Emma's place is super-cosy, you will not feel bored any time, even if it rains outside! The place is in a good location, close to Oslo and easy accessible by public transport. There are many nature trails around, it is close to Hoyd and Lomb alpine park and Sno Oslo. Emma and Patrick are exceptional kind and reliable people. They have two lovely kids Thilde and Theodor. We wish we could meet them again. If you are indecisive about visiting Norway, we definitely recommend you meet this family and their cat Petter to have unforgettable memories.
Isidoro is so sweet! And Betta was really helpful. I would totally recommend them.
I had the most wonderful time staying in John and Laura’s home, which was an incredible peaceful and welcoming retreat into the natural beauty of the Hudson Valley, complete with a secluded stream tucked away within the property, providing a meditative and rejuvenating place of rest during my time there! The home is light filled, plant filled, warm and inviting, with clear energy and all the necessities needed for a comfortable stay. The pups are friendly and delightful, greeting me with enthusiasm from the first moment we met! No need to warm up to strangers, they are all love at first sight :) Also I enjoyed caring for their new addition to the family, a little blue betta fish who lives in the main living room, providing vibrant and colorful company when curling up with a book. I would highly recommend this house sit and thank you again to John and Laura for welcoming me into your beautiful home :)
Molly is a super easy and affectionate sheepadoodle. She likes to cuddle and sniff stuff when going on a walk. She gets along with most of the neighbors dogs. She would ask for scratches and look at you with those big innocent eyes. The owner Debbie communicates very well. She had all the instructions written so you can always find them whenever you need. And you can reach her easily and smoothly. The house is quite nice and it was spotless when I first got there. The location has a nearby lake and crown lands within walking distance. All in all, it’s a great experience knowing Molly and her folks. Thank you for your trust and God bless!
Clive and Kirsteen’s lovely home in Monmouth was a real blessing to us. The outlook over the river and beyond was amazing. It was so peaceful that we didn’t want to venture away for too long! We were welcomed with open arms and made to feel at home immediately. It didn’t take long before Hattie and Bean found a place in our hearts. They were really the easiest of house mates and kept us entertained over our 6 days there. We had access to lovely walks right on our doorstep. It was so lovely to watch Bean running safely off lead when there were no sheep around and dear old Hattie took advantage of every opportunity to come along. Thank you Clive and Kirsteen for giving us the opportunity to enjoy this beautiful part of Wales.

Ernesto cared for my two dogs as if they were his own babies! I left them in his care for a week while I was in California and I got various pictures and he even let them sleep in bed with his pets! If you’re looking for a reliable and trustworthy pet sitter look no further!! Your animals will be treated and cared for as royalty!! Thank you!! 😊
Best pet sitter in Tampa! Trustworthy, responsive and caring sitters. We will use them again.
Ernesto has been incredible in taking care of my dog, Lasi. His attention to detail, patience, and genuine care ensure she’s not only well looked after but also happy and thriving. It’s clear that Lasi feels comfortable and loved under his watch, giving me complete peace of mind.
Ernesto has been taking care of my dog Cash for going on 5 years. I moved to Florida and found him on rover and I’ve never felt more safe with leaving my dog in another persons care. Cash is always excited to see him and that shows me how much he enjoys his time there. I will continue to take Cash to him and I’m forever grateful for Ernesto’s flexible availability!
Ernie has been watching Belle for 3 1/2 years and he’s the best. Very flexible and Belle loves hanging out with him. I highly recommend your fur baby with Ernie!! Very friendly and treats all pets as if they were his own.
Ernesto continues be the most reliable and trustworthy pet sitter! Whenever I’ve needed him, he’s always been able to take of my fur babies and they have a fantastic time from all the videos and pictures he shares with me. I really appreciate that he treats my pets as though they are part of his family and I feel so safe leaving them in his care. The best!!!
Was in town for an event and left my pup with Ernesto and he provided the best service, treated my pup like one of his own. Ernesto also provided updates while he stayed with my pup. 10/10 would recommend!!!
The Best on town . I can’t tell you how great is this guy is he definitely has a passion for animals . He took wonderful care of my babies for a week he let me know everyday how they were doing he share pictures and videos of them . It was like sending your kids to gramma and grandpas house they were spoiled 😁 . …
Wanted to thank Ernesto for taking care of Shadow these last couple of days! He is attentive, hospitable and great with animals. I’ve been a client of his for a long time and can say he treats all pets as if they were his own.
If I could give more than 5 ⭐️ stars, I absolutely would! Auntie Brooklyn Pet Care is hands down the best pet service I’ve ever encountered. These two ladies are bursting with energy and bring so much positivity to everything they do. Their love and care for your pets are truly exceptional, and they go above and beyond to provide the best service possible. They are incredibly professional and pay close attention to every detail, making sure your furry friends are happy and healthy. They are also extremely flexible for changes in your schedule and really help with trying to assist with any stress of sudden scheduling changes. Mykel and Brooklyn have a magical way of making your pets feel loved and confident, and you can see the difference in their personalities. They truly are the best! Brooklyn is such dog whisperer! I was amazed by how much she knew how to navigate my concerns about Rowan, the first day we met. If you’re worried about your pet’s anxiety, aggression, or reactive behaviors, these Auntie have it in the bag . Brooklyn can help you work through it with your baby. She’s incredibly patient! Brooklyn has such a keen eye for detail and behaviors she studies during our walks with Rowan. Even the trickiest tasks she can navigate through and provide the best advice for you and your pet. She can help you tackle tricky behaviors and bad habits. Brooklyn pours so much love into Rowan by giving her strong positive reinforcements and positive leash control. She’s even been able to correct six years of Rowan’s pulling with a simple suggesting such as a different harness. She also talked about building Rowan’s confidence, and rewarding good behavior! Before Auntie Brooklyn’s care , I was battling Rowan’s baseline of pulling so hard it felt like she was going to rip out my arm sockets. The transformation of Rowan walks now, with the Auntie’s is incredible!! Brooklyn and Mykel have turned Rowan’s walking ,(arm wrestling battle) of ripping out arm sockets to a relaxed leash walk in just two weeks! Auntie Brooklyn /Auntie Mykel have been working with Rowan hard. Rowan is also learning how to build her confidence with Mykel’s calming and nurturing nature. Mykel helps Rowan build positive relationships with other dogs and boosts her confidence. Mykel has such a magical way with a camera! She can capture the soul of your pet in so many special moments on their adventures. It’ll be hard to choose which picture is your favorite! I’m so grateful that Mykel can capture so much of Rowan’s personality in just one photo. I didn’t even know Rowan had that side! Along with her amazing photography skills, Mykel has such a calming and bubbly nature that Rowan can’t get enough of.!! Mykel works with Rowan’s confidence through positive reinforcement exercises and leash discipline and Rowan improves every day. She make Rowan feel like a movie star with her daily glamour shots while they’re on their adventures! I absolutely love how Rowan waits at the door for her Auntie’s as if they her actual family (Rowan rolls her eyes and says “Duhh they are my family!!”) and the excitement/happy dance when she sees them makes my heart so happy!!. Rowan absolutely adores spending time with her Auntie’s, and they make her feel like the most special DOG in the world! (Rowan can be a little self-centered sometimes, haha!) In closing, I highly recommend The Brooklyn’s Auntie Pet Services. They’re the best investment you can make for your fur baby. They’ll give your fur baby the same love and attention that you do, and they’ll also help take care of them while you’re away. I can’t thank these girls enough! ✨⭐️
We were worried to leave our little girls while we left town for a week. We haven’t left our little dog & cat with a non-family member before. Our wonderful neighbor told us about Brooklyn and Mykel and the incredible job they did dog / house sitting for them. After having the both of them over for a meet and greet we felt much better. Still…we had some nerves when we left town. We had sent Brooklyn & Mykel a HUGE list of instructions for our girls and we hoped that would help! Turns out, they didn’t need the list and they just knew what to do. How did we know? Brooklyn and Mykel actually communicated with us!!! They sent photos, they sent texts, they let us know how our fur babies were doing all the time!!! We had updates on walks, on feeding time, on playtimes, and all the snuggles given. If they left the house, they made sure the TV was left on with comforting music. Rosie was even rewarded with a Pup Cup for being such a good doggie. They also made sure the house was looked after…bringing in mail and packages, vacuuming around the litter box, and taking out the trash. We would have Brooklyn and Mykel back in a heartbeat and would give them a five star, 10 out of 10, A++, thumbs up review score!!! Have them over for a meet and greet…you won’t regret it and you can actually enjoy your trip knowing your home and your fur babies are safe and sound!
Brooklyn was the very best at making my dogs were well taken care of and safe from Hurricane Helene. She and Mykel ensured that we were enjoying our vacation and not worrying about our furbabies, sending us pics several times a day and full comunication during the hurricane. We highly recommend her and will definitely use her service again!
Brooklyn came to me and my pup just when we needed her most! My dog had just had to spend 3 nights in the emergency vet because he had somehow escaped his crate while I was at work. He ate some things he shouldn’t have. When Kylo came home, all was great since I worked at home… until I had to go to work in office a couple days later. I reached out to Brooklyn very very last minute to see if she could hang at my house with Kylo. I didn’t trust him in his current crate and his new one was not delivered yet. Brooklyn came and sat with my pup all day. She came shortly after i left for work and when she had other clients to take care of she would leave and then return to be with Kylo. From that day on I never trusted Kylo with anyone else. I mean it wasn’t that I didn’t trust someone else but Brooklyn had just set my expectations so high lol. Brooklyn has seen both the dark and light side of Kylo and she never loved him any less… even if it was raining really hard and she was scheduled to walk him… I mean honestly I think that actually made her love him more! The pictures are also top notch if that factors in to anything… I mean it definitely should factor in lol. The bottom line is… Brooklyn cares so deeply for any animal in her care. The energy of love and affection she has for animals comes through every text and picture like you are in her presence. I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my dog if I had the option to have Brooklyn. She is as flexible as she can be to be able to help everyone she can! If the scale was 10/10 she would still surpass that.. 100/10.
Brooklyn does an awesome job taking care of our two Rhodesian Ridgebacks! She always sends plenty of fun photos and updates when we are away from home. Hades and Athena love their “lunch fairy” and enjoy all the attention and love they get when Brooklyn visits!
Brooklyn has been taking care of our babies for over a year now and has been doing an incredible job. I truly trust her and her team with our very energetic fetch-machine (German mix haha), a lazy couch potato (pit mix), a grumpy little old man (dachshund mix) and our beautiful medium haired cat. Our grumpy old dog also requires medication that Brooklyn administers flawlessly and like clockwork! One thing I love about Brooklyn’s care is her “pUpdates” - little messages and pictures throughout her time with them! It really makes me less anxious to be away from them. She also handled an emergency situation with the dogs professionally, calmly, and communicated clearly with us the whole time (everyone was okay in the end!), which is exactly what is needed at those times. Overall Brooklyn does an amazing job for all our visits, overnight stays, and check-ins and walks.
Brooklyn is amazing with my pack. She came over for a meet and greet and my dogs instantly loved her. My dachshund is usually pretty standoffish but warmed up to her very quickly which really helped calm any of my nerves. She watched our dogs for a few days and kept in contact with us numerous times a day. She gave us updates and sent photos which was nice to see everyone happy. I highly recommend Brooklyn to anyone that has pets. We have her booked for a week, for 24-Hour care with our pups, and now I can relax and enjoy my vacation. Thank you so much for loving my fur babies as much as I would.
Auntie Brooklyn is the most amazing person, I had the absolute best experience boarding my dog # Loki with her over Memorial Day weekend. She has the best knowledge of dogs I've ever seen! I highly recommend her service and will use it again!
Brooklyn is amazing, we can always trust her and feel stress free whenever we leave our fur babies under her care. She always updates us and sends us amazing pictures.
I can't say enough about the care and love that Auntie Brooklyn gives to our 2 dogs! They are in love with her and are so happy when she is here with them. I have had Brooklyn stay with my dogs while we have been on vacations and she is always very communicative - providing updates and photos morning, noon and night! I never have to hesitate when I want to make plans because I know that she cares for them as she would her own! I have recommended Brooklyn to my friends who have also had great experiences! We couldn't ask for better!! THANK YOU, AUNTIE BROOKLYN. WE WUV YOU! Love, Foster and Brody! :)
If you’re looking for a reliable and trustworthy pet sitting service look no further! We have used Professional Pets for years for both daytime walks and overnight sitting and we couldn’t be happier!! They treat your fur baby like their own! Their manager, Lauri, is wonderful and so kind. We know we can trust the members on her team. Trisha typically walks our sweet pup and she is the best!!! We always get a very detailed report card of her visit and lots of photos!! Our dog is deaf and Trisha is always so patient and gentle with her. We appreciate this team so much and highly recommend them for any pet sitting needs!!
This was my first time using Professional Pets Florida. Every detail, from the initial communications with Lauri to the meet and greet to the overnight pet sitting and daily visits, was exceptional! Lauri went above and beyond with communication regarding my trip status and needs. They sincerely and wholeheartedly cared about my super senior cats like they were their own, even helping to coordinate the best care plan/visits while we would be away so that their routines were not disturbed. Justine managed the medication schedule and feeding schedule involving multiple diets with ease. She was very communicative and sent detailed visit recaps and fun photos throughout her stay. She also clarified and asked questions if needed---SO crucial for super seniors with medication and diet needs. We returned home to a very relaxed and happy fur family! There is no doubt they loved Justine :) And we are looking forward to her and other Professional Pets Florida pet sitters sitting for us again soon. This company EASILY earned a five-star review!
Lauren S from Professional Pets is amazing with our elderly dogs. She sends us photos and updates from every visit. Others from Professional Pets have come to let our dogs out too and all were great. Unexpectedly we had to go out of town overnight. Lauren S was able to sleep over at our house and take care of our pups. It was a huge relief she and Professional Pets were able to do this. We knew our dogs were in great hands and would be well taken care of. We love Professional Pets and highly recommend them.
I absolutely love Pet Professionals. They were recommended by residents in my community and I couldn't be happier. The ladies are beyond communicative and attentive. I am at ease knowing my two kitties are in their care when we are away. I particularly look forward to the pictures taken during the visit. Highly recommend their services.
We love using Professional Pets! We have two dogs and a cat. We typically utilize their services when going out of town for a weekend, their 30 minute drop in is ideal for us! This last weekend Trisha stopped in for us and played with our pups for almost the entire time. Everyone who has dropped in has been great though! I always have peace of mind when we hire them AND they always share the cutest pics of our girls.
We have been using Professional Pets Florida for about 3 years now. We have a senior dog and four cats, and two of our pets have fairly serious special needs. Knowing everybody has veterinary experience gives us the comfort we need. We love that there is a staff, so if something comes up with the scheduled person, someone else can cover. This last trip out of town, Kaity did overnights for us. It was our first experience with Katie and just as with everybody at PPF, she was amazing, detail oriented and so caring with our little zoo. Her updates were great and she handled all the special needs with grace and care. I cannot recommend PPF enough.
I give Professional Pets Florida a 5 Star rating. They are absolutely professional. My dog Maggie loves everyone whoever comes to take care of her. They treat her like their own.
We appreciate Professional Pets Florida so much! They are so easy to work with and very responsive. Laura takes such great care our kitty girl, even though we don't like having to leave her we know she is in good hands with Laura.
Kaity, Maryann and Audrey were awesome with my fur babies. My family went on vacation and they took such good care of my boys and kept me updated daily. Their communication was so amazing and I felt like by boys were in good hand. I will be recommending them to all my friends and neighbors.
I can’t say enough good things about their service. They took care of my fur babies for almost two weeks while I was oversees. I received twice daily updates and photos and more questions as they learned about each of my animals. They were great!!! Would recommend them 100%!!!! Laura was great!!!!! She is welcome to take care of my babies anytime!!!!
Bamboo Pet Sitting is our go-to pet sitter! We’ve been very happy customers for many years now. The care that each sitter takes with our furbaby, Lucy, is so so thoughtful and considerate: not only do they take wonderful photos at each visit so you can see, they also speak up about other issues as they arise, like a loose faucet handle. They also bring in mail and packages and leave our home in great condition. We love taking our dog on vacation but when we can’t, I know that she looks forward to the pet sitters who always spend quality time with her. We are very happy customers and so is Lucy. Thank you Bamboo Pet Sitters!!!
We have a very anxious dog who we hate sending to a kennel, so we are thrilled to have found a home pet sitter who has worked with us and has been so helpful with our high maintenance dog. Stephanie truly cares about animals and makes sure they get the best care, and doesn’t give up when our dog is difficult. Thank you! Highly recommend, love the live updates and photos of each visit.
Very professional, timely and cares about your pet as much as you do. We felt very comfortable from the first encounter. I know that our dog Sophie will be excited when she returns!
Stephanie is fantastic. I always feel so at ease when my older dog stays with her. I can't bear to board him and this has been a lifesaver. I know she's up to date on all the latest pet trends and safety precautions. I never worry about my old pup as she sends me lots of photos and updates. He's got some bladder control issues in his older age and she doesn't mind putting a diaper on him when he stays with her. I'd recommend her services to anyone.
An absolute gem of a pet service. Excellent communication and so understanding and non judgemental in regards to a rescue pup (w hx of trauma aka she is not the easiest with strangers) and working with her quirks. Every employee was fantastic and sent sweet updates and hilarious videos of trying to convince the scaredy-cat pup to come downstairs and see them…which she eventually did!!!! And that is not something that has happened in the past with previous sitters. Everyone from owner to employees make you feel like you are part of a family which can give one such a sense of security and trust leaving their fur baby under their care. I could feel everyone truly has a passion for their job ! And a little shout out to Alexandria who I shall now refer to as the Chloe whisperer 😊 Looking for a professional pet service that also still has an authentic, real life, we are all in this together feel? This is the one! Thank you so much for being awesome 😊
We left our dog and cat at our home for two weeks while we drove across the country to visit grandparents and had Stephanie's business visit a few times a day to feed, walk, etc. We got photos of our pets and reports on their health with every visit, were able to communicate with not just Stephanie but her awesome employees, and came home to happy and relaxed pets (when we used to board our dog, she'd be frantic and anxious for weeks after). As everyone gets busy with summer travel plans, give Steph a try!
Stephanie is wonderful . She is very professional and took care of my two kitties while I was away. She treated them like her own. I love that she sends daily pics and updates on how they're doing. They both loved her so much. Highly recommend
Stephanie was great and accommodating, it was our first time leaving our fur babies with someone non family. She made sure they were well taken care and sent updates making my family feel at ease. Would definitely recommend and use their services again.
Excellent...I will always call Stephanie first if I need a dog sitter in the future. She has an amazing way with the pups and I know they are being well cared for with her. I love that she sends daily updates on how they're doing with pics!!
Steph is awesome! Did a great job! Best part is I forgot to pick up my key chain and she returned it to me 2 years later! If that’s not someone who cares about their clients then I don’t know what is!
I am a boutique breeder of American Bulldogs. Dustin does such a great job. Very reliable, trustworthy and my dogs love him. He stays at our home and cares for our animals every time we need him. We would not use anyone else. His price is very fair. Although I pay him extra because I have a litter of puppies for him to watch from time to time, it’s worth it to me to have him on my team. He even helped birth a puppy that decide to come out late while we were at my fathers funeral and he a fine job. We would highly recommend him.
I recently needed a break and a quick vacation to Disney. I already had several recommendations for Dustin. He was available, and even my most difficult dog( and the cats) seemed to warm up to him immediately. Arriving home my pets were happy and content. He even took the time to sweep up the never ending pile of hair. I highly recommend him and will use his services again.
Dustin took an amazing care of our babies this Thanksgiving!! He initially came to our house to meet them and my babies Loved him. Then would come in and feed, walk and love on our babies. Dustin took pictures on all of the adventure and even cleaned after them. He also gifted a ball to baby Brave! I am thankful to have people who actually care about animals and love them as much as I do! 10 stars ⭐️
Dustin is amazing! We had hired a dog sitter that quit on us in the middle of our vacation. We were 11 hours away and could not get to our furbabies. We called Dustin (who had never even met our dogs or us) and he immediately went over to check on them! Our babies were so happy to be walked and fed and loved on! He even spoiled them with treats and helped one our dogs who has eye issues. He gave her drops to help her feel better. Our eldest dog is on medication and he made sure he gave him his medicine just the way he needed it. He even wrote down when he gave it to him on paper so we knew he was well taken care of! His communication is wonderful he made sure he let us know when he was on his way when he was leaving and sent us pictures of our babies! He made sure he gave us updates on how they were eating, pottying and playing. We can't thank him enough for taking such great care of our babies and saving our vacation! Thank you for taking care of our squad Dustin!! We will never hire anyone else but you!!
I highly recommend Dog Squad LLC! Dustin is professional, friendly, personable and was great with my boys. It's clear he loves dogs and it shows in the great service he provides. It was so nice to be able to enjoy our trip while recieving pictures and updates for peace of mind. It was worth every penny. Thank you again Dustin we will definitely be booking you again in the future.
I have known Dustin for many years and I have to say he is one of the kindest, most hard working and down to earth human beings I have met in my life. He will take care of your pets as if they were his own children. Having someone look after our pets or for many of us our babies is a luxury that not many can afford and a blessing that not many do experience. We understand the importance and the peace of mind it brings us to know our paw friends are being looked after and taken care of while we are out or while we work. I absolutely value his services and cant recommend him enough.
I don’t often leave positive reviews as I am typically the complainer. Perhaps I have very high expectations. Which is why I wanted to let everyone know just how much we appreciate the wonderful service and treatment of our beloved dogs by Dustin at Dog Squad. Dustin is kind and compassionate and very professional. He went above and beyond for our fur babies! Not only did he keep us updated, but he provided us with a slew of pictures of him and our fur babies having a great time. He took them for walks, groomed them and even took them to the splash water park for some extra well needed fun time! One of our pups requires extra special attention and need her medication, and Dustin made sure she was taken care of and kept up on her meds. I was beyond impressed. Our fur.babies just loved him, and it seemed as if he loved them back just as much!!! Thank you so much Dustin for everything you did and all that you helped us out with. From your professionalism to your generous care and affordable pricing, we couldn’t have asked for a better experience for our fur babies!! I highly recommend using Dustin and Dog Squad!!
Dustin took care of our squad of dogs that ranged in age and breed for an entire week. We knew it was a big ask considering it was 6 large dogs and 2 of which were puppies. He exceeded our expectations. We received regular updates throughout the week and our dogs were happy when we came home. We would gladly recommend him to anyone and will use him again
Great company, amazing with my dog. We call dog squad for all our needs with our blue heeler Mokey. She is a nervous dog and finding someone who can work with her was difficult until we found Dog Squad. Wouldn’t trust her with anyone else! Thank you!
Dustin was exceptional. On very short notice he is a was able to fill in on days when our son had to work long shifts to come and take care of our seven month old JRT puppy. He spent about an hour with her each day walking her playing with her, feeding her, etc. He posted pictures of their time together while I was on vacation so I could stay in touch. I so impressed with his sincere affection for our dog and his follow through on communications. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a Dog Sitter walker Play time partner.
Autumn was so awesome. She took amazing care of my pup. Within short notice, she took him in with open arms. Not only that, Autumn kept me up to date every single day from his mood to activities plus more. There’s not a better feeling than to know that your pup is being well taken care of!!
We're absolutely thrilled with the top-notch care our fur babies received at Bayside Walkers! Autumn went above and beyond to ensure our pets felt loved and comfortable. Autumn's exceptional handling brought our shy Beagle, Bella, out of her shell, and kept our energetic Bull Terrier engaged and happy. Her flexibility allowed us to drop off after hours, making our lives so much easier. The daily report cards and regular text updates kept us informed and reassured. It's clear that Autumn and the Bayside Walkers team genuinely care about providing a safe, fun environment. We can't recommend Bayside Walkers enough! We'll definitely be back. Thank you, Autumn and team, for providing outstanding care! Highly Recommended!
I really loved the updates I received on my dog, Milo while he was boarded for the week! Autum sent me updates with photos & cute videos! I didn’t have to worry & I was really happy to see how comfy Milo was and how much fun he was having! A big backyard and specialized treats & trainings. She even asked me any ingredient allergies & his dietary needs!! Bayside Walkers was super easy to sign up with AND board!! Welcoming, clean home and fenced in backyard… I will definitely be subscribing to the doggy daycare plan for Milo!!! Thank you so much, Autum & Bayside Walkers🙏
If I could give more stars, I would 100% Autum is the most outstanding, kind, caring person to us and our fur-child, Apollo. Apollo has looked forward to doggy daycare with his besties since he was 3 months old. Autum is such a blessing and we are so grateful ❤️
I could tell when I first met Autumn that my puppy would be in great hands, and I was right. If you want to leave your pet with complete peace of mind, this is the spot! I’m already booking with her again, knowing my dog was happy and well taken care of!
My 2 Yorkies love Autumn. As soon as I met her, I knew my furbabies were in good hands. You can tell she loves what she does and they love her home. She has a fenced in yard and plenty of space for them to play. She sends pictures and daily updates. I’ve already booked her again for an unexpected trip and know they will be happy to go back again. Highly recommend her to care for your furbabies.
Love, love, love BaysideWalkers. Autum is the best. We basically have a zoo and she did amazing with all our fur, feathered and shelled babies.
We have been taking our labradoodle here for over a month now and have been extremely satisfied with how it is going. We get timely updates, pictures, and our puppy is getting socialized with other dogs. He comes home tired and ready to unwind so he clearly gets his energy out while being watched for us.
As a pet owner who values reliable and caring service, I was thoroughly impressed with BaysideWalkers Professional Pet Care. From the initial contact, their team was responsive and professional. They took the time to understand my dog’s needs and quirks, which made me feel confident in their service. Each walk was documented with updates and photos, showing just how much fun my pup was having. It’s clear that they truly love animals and go above and beyond to ensure they are well-cared for. I highly recommend BaysideWalkers to any pet owner who wants peace of mind when they can't be there themselves. Plus, their rewards program is a delightful bonus!
Always goes above and beyond for my dog! Anytime I need her, she’s always available. I’ve noticed which a huge difference in my dog’s overall behavior since I’ve started taking him to Autum’s! He’s able to get his energy out all day and socialize with other dogs. I couldn’t do it without her!
Lauri was absolutely amazing! She watched our Holland Lop bunny for a week while we went on vacation for Christmas/New Years. She is very flexible with drop off and pick up times and made everything very easy. She would send updates and pictures throughout the day which I loved! We will definitely have Lauri watch our bunny again the next time time we need a pet sitter. Thank you so much Lauri!
I left my pet bunny with Lauri during thanksgiving for a couple of days because my usual pet sitters were not available. Not sure what happened but i’m not so sure Lauri took good care of him. When we picked him up, he smelled so badly of urine. It’s visible that he didn’t use his litter box. Lauri did not let us know any of this (not even sure if she noticed). After picking my bunny up, he was a little down and wasn’t as active but he still ate a little. The day after that, my bunny became very lethargic and didn’t eat at all so we took him to the vet today. Unfortunately he had SEVERE gas in his intestines and passed away within a couple of hours at the vet. I don’t know what caused the gas but from the X-rays it was visible there was no food in his system so i’m not sure if he was eating properly while lauri was watching him (she didn’t tell me anything). My rabbit was completely 100% fine before dropping him off with lauri and now he’s gone. Idk what she did and I don’t want to point fingers but it seems a little too coincidental. Especially the fact that he smelled really badly of urine after picking him up which has never happened before. It’s as if he was rolling around in his own pee. I tried calling her to get answers but she has not been picking up. I would not recommend anyone to trust Lauri to watch your pet. After watching mine, he passed away.
Lauri took great care of my babies. I have an Umbrella Cockatoo that demands attention and an Old English Sheepdog/German Shepard mix that is an escape artist. We will be back for sure! Thank you so much Lauri ❤️
My mom and I left my childhood dog, Pompeii, who is now 18-years-old with Lauri while we went out of town. Since she is a senior dog we worry about leaving her at a standard kennel as it can be overwhelming for an older, smaller dog. After seeing fabulous reviews about Lauri online we set up an introductory meet-up and booked a sleepover stay. Lauri makes sure to keep all of the animals separated, which is very appreciated. Lauri let Pompeii have the entire entryway room for her overnight visit, and she also sent us adorable update pictures (without us even asking). You can tell Lauri truly loves and cares about the dogs that she watches. We would definitely recommend Lauri's Pet Sitting Services to anyone who wants a friendly and comfortable space for their pets to enjoy their time away. Thank you again Lauri, Pompeii loved her B&B :-)
Laurie is an absolute Gem. She cared for Felix like he was her own. She agreed to watch him even though I did not have a pre arranged time scheduled. Her cuty yorkie accepted Felix as part of the pack immediately. I highly recommend her services to those who only want the best care for their doggies👍🏾 I will definitely use her services again. U will not be disappointed as well if you do also. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
I'm grateful for Lauri’s outstanding service! Despite my last-minute request, she accommodated and provided excellent care for our dog, Hero. Her flexibility, reliability, and genuine concern for my dog’s well-being truly stood out. I highly recommend her to anyone in need of a caring and responsive pet sitter. Thank you Lauri!
Our little Frenchie Stu loves going to Lauri's! He gets to play with the other dogs all day, and Lauri throws the ball for him and gives him treats. He has a blast! We feel comfortable leaving our dog with Lauri. She knows how to interact with dogs and all kinds of animals, and Stu felt comfortable around her from the start. We leave him with Lauri every Saturday and whenever we go out of town.
Lauri is great! She really cares about the pets and pays attention to them. She took the time to get to know him beforehand and made me feel at ease, especially since he is an older guy. He loved being there! Thanks, Lauri and Bella Rosa!
I called this business to get a quote and ask a few questions about the services provided and she was extremely rude. I usually never write reviews, but this was straight up wrong, I asked how many dogs she thinks she may have and she responded by saying “well that’s a stupid question, I won’t know how many I’ll have way out in the future” then she proceeded to rush me off the phone. As a service provider and a human and general you don’t talk to anyone like that let alone a customer…I was just getting information and everything sounded nice until then. Just rude. She called back and apologized however, I advise as a business owner you must be able to control your emotions.
We've had great experiences working with Lauri of Lauri's Pet Sitting Service, using her to board our dog when we travel. She provides a safe and comfortable environment for the fur babies and cares for them as if they are her own. She even sends pictures of our baby while we are away so we can see how he's doing! We trust Lauri to care for our fur baby and highly recommend her services!
This is the most well put together shop I've ever seen to take care of the ones that we love the most and love us better than we could ever imagine. The staff is fantastic the facilities are immaculately clean and there was a Vibe of Love That Floats here unparalleled with any business I've ever entered.
The dog patch is absolutely amazing! I have used the Dog Patch for daycare/ boarding for my dog. They are great with your fur babies. I recommend them to everyone that is looking for grooming and daycare/ boarding. I would trust them with my furbabies anytime!
My wife Kay owns The Dog Patch. This is the perfect place for your fur babies. Everyone will feel welcomed as soon as they walk into the very nice lobby by a friendly and professional staff. Our goal is to provide exceptional care of all our guests.
I cannot recommend the Dog Patch enough! What an amazing place. My dog Pepper is 5 months old and started going about 3 weeks ago, 2 times a week and she was SO shy. I had to literally pick her up to go in the door. Now she’s happy as soon as we pull in and she walks right in the door wagging her tail ready to go play with all of her friends. All the staff we’ve encountered are so nice. They do themed activities during the week with them which is really fun to see, they post the pictures on their Facebook page. Pepper had her first grooming experience there today and she looked exactly how I pictured she would after! I notice a difference in her behavior when we’re out and about too. She’s not nearly as shy of people or dogs as she used to be. Love the dog patch!
Let me start out by saying I have 4 dogs of all sizes and age ranges. There is Peanut the beagle who is 14, Belle the timid lab mix who is 7, Hank the Staffy who is 3 and Cash the Great Dane who is 1 1/2. I NEVER thought I would find somewhere that would take my crazy pack because of breed and size restrictions but boy am I glad I found The Dog Patch. My little ol’ lady goes to daycare twice a week and wakes up with a spring in her step on those days! My timid lab, Belle, is scared of her own shadow but boy the smile I see on her face in the pictures they post! Kay, the owner, is so amazing and truly understand that my dogs are my kids and I love that! Karen and Mallory are so awesome and I just couldn’t imagine a better home away from home for my babies!!
The best groomer! My pups take the shuttle there and back which is an amazing perk! Our pups leave smelling amazing, with the best hair cuts they have ever gotten! Not to mention how much fun they have playing with other pups before / after their appointments! Super friendly and accommodating staff. And it is very affordable, We love this place!
I can’t share enough good things about the dog patch! I started taking my dog Max there after it was recommended by a trainer for him to spend some time away from me and socializing with other dogs. I have seen his confidence build since he has started attending, and I can tell that he loves it a lot. I love the picture opportunities they do for the Holidays! You don’t have to pay extra, just sign up for that day. Max didn’t attend for a year due to personal reasons, but when I brought him back the staff told me they “couldn’t believe that it was him” and they told my boyfriend to never keep him from them that long again. It was so nice to know they loved my dog so much and that the same staff was there a year later. They also take pictures everyday that I look froward too. I’ve never had an issue and they keep the health of the dogs top priority. They have also let me cancel last minute (my car wouldn’t start so I couldn’t get there) and they were very understanding.
My boy loves the dog patch. He’s been going for over a year now. They always do special days all weeks so the dogs are always entertained with something new and often on special days they’ll even get to bring a toy home or something special. He’s also had to stay overnight a few times and never had any issues. He’s very used to staying there and always has a blast playing.
My dog, Margot, loves The Dog Patch. She goes to daycare for half a day a week. She literally pulls me to the door. When it’s time to go home she just lays on the floor. I have to pick up to get to the car. I boarded her for a weekend (my first time boarding a dog). Kay told me she had a hard time settling the first night. Kay snuggled her and made a nest with her blanket. She was fine after that. It’s great having people who love Margot as much as I do.
I LOVE LOVE this doggy daycare! I have 2 bully breeds & first they accept them! Which is Florida is amazing! Second the owner runs such a beautiful well staffed business & I really love how kind she is! To have a consistent staff in this day & age shows a great owner! It’s amazing to know my dogs are safe, and having fun! I send mine for half a day a few times a week for socialization & exercise! I also LOVE Molly!! I sometimes forget to check if I was confirmed, and she’s always so polite!! I also LOVE Miguel the groomer!! I’ve never been one to pay for grooming, but he does a incredibly noticeably better job than I do so I now get mine groomed regularly by him!! I highly recommend this buisness! I love the entire staff too! I haven’t yet had a bad experience!! They have an amazing work ethic, and their standards are very high! My dogs are my fur babies so it’s so nice to have a place like the dog patch to take them! They come home sleepy & sooo happy! Thank you Team Dog patch!!
Alena & the team at Marina District Pet Care have been our go to dog sitter for a few years now and they are incredible! Our dog absolutely loves the team and they love him. They always make sure to keep us updated with photos while we’re gone so we know he is in good hands, and are always flexible to accommodate our dog sitting needs.
Alena and her team have been such a blessing. Our pug, Bruce, has spent many overnight stays with Alena and her team. He is always well taken care of and gets lots of exercise. We are always sad to be away from our Bruce, but are at peace knowing he is in the best of hands while we are apart!
Wow! Marina District Pet Care is absolutely fantastic and I highly recommend for anyone in the Tampa area! They are punctual, reliable, professional, and very passionate about what they do. My dog Niko looks forward to his walks and overnight stays and comes back happy and well taken care of. I know he’s in good hands every time I use them. If you’re looking for a dog walker or pet sitter, this is the best in the area.
Truly amazing staff and such a great team to work with over all! They take such amazing care of all of their clients and the fur babies they work with. You won't regret choosing Marina District Pet Care for all of your pet care needs! (Photo of two very satisfied pups!)
I recently had an outstanding experience with Marina District Pet Care, and I can't recommend them enough! From the moment I reached out, their professionalism and genuine love for animals were evident. The staff took the time to understand my pet's specific needs and ensured they felt comfortable and well-cared for throughout their stay. They provided regular updates, complete with photos, which gave me peace of mind knowing that he was in great hands. It's clear that they are passionate about what they do, and it shows in the exceptional level of care they provide. I truly appreciate their dedication to creating a stress-free and enjoyable experience for both pets and their owners. I will definitely be using their services again in the future. If you're looking for a pet care provider that you can trust, Marina District Pet Care is the company to go with!!!
Alena and her crew are the absolute best! Alena of course is wonderful, but she also hires some of the best help and our pups absolutely love them all. When we return home from a trip, we can tell our pups are not anxious or stressed but just happy to see us. If the pups have had a rough experience when we are gone, they tell us with a stressful type of reaction. We never see that! Alena is reliable, dependable, and most importantly loves dogs as much as the owners do. That becomes apparent immediately and is so important. Highly recommend!
I was notified by a friend to check out the reviews on Google for Marina District Pet Care because my name was used. After reading the review and response, I am upset. The Emily person that left the review was not me. Though, I did use this company briefly. My experience was great at first then went downhill fast. I found Marina District Pet Care are untruthful and not trusting, especially after looking at Google. I do not recommend but instead recommend looking into other dog walking/sitting companies. Hopefully the owner has made changes to improve.
Marina District Pet Care is amazing. As a dog mom who constantly wants the best for my pups, they truly care for them as I would whenever I’m away. Would 100% recommend them as your pet sitting or walking service!
Amazing experience my dog buddy loved it here he didn’t complain at all! Buddy loved his nail care experience. Didn’t bark once when I picked him up he wanted to hug the workers. I will definitely bring him back.
Alena is literally the most incompetent sitter I’ve ever met. She left our dogs alone for over 14 hours. Gets there at 9:14am. Left by 9:50am. It’s now 11:50pm. Claims she “lost her phone”. Okay….so that means you leave our living, breathing animals alone without food or water all day?! We had to contact someone else to watch them while we were out of town visiting my father for his birthday. DO NOT HIRE THIS PATHETIC EXCUSE FOR A HUMAN BEING. You will absolutely regret it.
This was the first time we ever boarded our Bernadoodle and McKenzie did a phenomenal job. It took a day or so for him to acclimate to his surroundings and then he had a good time. We especially enjoyed the daily pictures she sent us. We would definitely be comfortable to leave our now two dogs with her when we go away. Great Job. Thank you
Makenzi and Jose go above and beyond to understand what my furry baby needs and ensure he feels comfortable in their place away from home. We also enjoy the precious photos and videos they sends us of my pup daily, with wonderful updates like when he makes new friends and how he got more confident with other dogs. Ori really had a good time. We definitely will be back! Thank you guys for taking care of our pup! Beyond grateful.
Simply the best! Our girl was well taken care of and we loved the photos! We used 813 pet sitting for sitting during our wedding and we never had to worry. Thank you for being part of our special day and taking such great care of our pup. :)
The best! We were so worried leaving our babies to go on vacation, but Jose and Makenzi where beyond amazing. As soon as I met them to walk them through the property I knew our animals where going to be taken care of. Then we received photos of the first visit and I was overjoyed! It’s not easy going away and leaving farm animals but they made us have a worry free vacation! Thank you soooo much for doing what you guys do!!
I'm so thankful for Jose and Makenzi they watched my dog(Ocho) for me over the weekend while I went out of town. These two are the best, they'll work with your schedule, reasonably priced, and they'll even send you pictures to let you know how your pup is doing. Awesome Sitters 👍🏾 …
Leaving your pup with Makenzi and Jose is like leaving them with family! I can tell by the texts and photos sent that they love my baby the way I do. And for the pups - the yard is a fun area of exploration (water, chickens, toys!) and lots of room to run. Lefty loves his "home" away from home and we can go away and know our pup is loved and well cared for!
Cannot recommend them enough! Makenzie and Jose are the best. You can tell they absolutely love animals. They took the best care of my pets providing updates and went above and beyond! 10/10 recommend
Absolutely LOVE taking my Reba girl to them for any kind of dog sitting & boarding! They are super communicative, good pricing, and send picture updates on your furry friends!! I highly recommend them to anyone in need of a good sitter!
After being worried about leaving our 4 month old puppy while we were away, I was absolutely thrilled and comfortable after picking him up. I got tons of pictures and updates and one tired little puppy throughout the weekend! Will use them again!!
Best dog sitters in town. Our dog Riley stayed for 2 nights and almost 3 days. I was worried leaving her at first but was sent multiple updates on how she was doing, including pictures. She even had her own room. She definitely enjoyed her stay as well and will be back in the future! Thank you guys again for taking such good care of her!
Facility was very clean and quiet. I had my baby's nails trimmed today and they were quick and very professional. Would highly recommend.
I dropped off my cat here for a five day stay and am very satisfied! It was easy to find and park. Check in was easy, and I was able to do most of it online. The boarding place was clean and I can tell they really take good care of the cats. I was very happy that the staff took the time to write down my cats' food information and I felt confident that they would adhere to it. My cat came back healthy, and clean. I will be coming here when I need cat boarding again!
I have a lot of anxiety about leaving my cats, but leaving them with Paula always gives me peace of mind. She loves cats and I whole heartedly believe she cares for them as if they're her own. She takes note of their different personalities, likes, dislikes, etc. and she's also knowledgeable about medical conditions and able to give them medications, insulin shots, etc. I love that my four are allowed to be in a room together with toys, cat trees for window gazing, etc. (everything they need is supplied). I don't travel often, but when I do, I book with Sweetie's.
I have boarded my cat twice at Sweeties Cat House, both for a longer period. My cat was treated with love, his coat was clean and shiny and he was even more affectionate when I picked him up. Very happy and peace of mind to have found this facility.
Due to a last minute emergency, I was scrambling to find a safe place to board my 10 y.o. cat. I reached out to Sweetie’s the night before I needed to board my cat and they got back to me first thing in the morning offering to take her in. She stayed there for about six nights and I called every other day to check in on her. She was having a blast! She’s typically a very anxious, shy cat but when I went to pick her up, she was cuddling with one of the lovely staff members. I only have good things to say about Sweetie’s! I now have a place I can trust!
We did not have the best experience. 1st the pros- they are easy to book they are pretty responsive with communication. Cons- the price on website was not updated and reflects a lower rate which they had advised me it changed 3 months ago. Also we had just been to vet and have an indoor kitten but I was told one day after dropping off by owner that my cat had fleas. She said she could give him a $30 flea treatment. And she claims he did not get flees from any of her cats even though many are both in/outdoor. And lastly when we picked up our cat he was completely different which gave me huge concerns about how he had been treated .We were never given a tour or offered any info on how they are cared for.
Our cat loved Sweeties! We were nervous to leave our elderly cat with anyone; the wonderful owner kept us updated with pictures and personally ensured her quality of care was top notch. Paula is so kind and caring, you can tell this business is absolutely a labor of love. Sweeties is the best care we could have asked for.
We just moved to the area and had to stay in a non pet friendly hotel while we waited for our house to be ready, I found this cat house online and the reviews were great. The place is homey and inviting! Paula is caring and was quick to respond to my email checking in with pictures and kind words to ease my mind! She was really flexible when our date got pushed back a little and I can tell my cat was well taken care of! I would definitely recommend this cat house! Your pet will be well taken care of!
I was super nervous about boarding my cat but Paula was awesome and made me feel better and the facility is really nice and clean. The rates are great and they even helped me with getting my cats vaccines up to date so that he could stay and board with them. That's above and beyond!!!!!! I will definitely be mentioning this to all my cat owner friends. I will definitely be boarding here again in the future.
I just picked my cat up from Sweeties and we will definitely be returning for future boarding! I was in a rush to find boarding as I was traveling out of state for Christmas. Sweeties responded so quickly and with availability; I booked immediately. Upon arrival we were greeted outside for curbside pickup, the tech listened as I walked her through my cat’s food and med instructions, and I was off. Usually I am so anxious to leave my cat when traveling but Sweeties has made all the difference!
