Dog Sitters in Longboat Key, FL

Diane and Bill were wonderful sitters for our princess feline Katie. It was great to meet them the evening before I left for my trip and appreciated that they could drive me to the station the morning of my departure. Katie does not normally warm up to strangers easily, but she was comfortable with Bill and Diane, as evident in her very "chill" behavior when I returned. I also very much appreciated their attention to my garden and plants, keeping them all watered during a dry spell, so that I could continue to enjoy them upon my return. Bed linens and towels were washed and the house left clean and tidy. Communications, logistics and coordination were all excellent. Diane and Bill would be welcome back again anytime!

Kelly was absolutely outstanding! She took great care of our two dogs as well as the house. She immediately bonded with our dogs and provided daily updates and pictures of how they were doing. The house was left extremely clean and neat. I would gladly have Kelly sit for us again and recommend her to anyone and everyone!

Michele is my "go to" for pet and house sitting. Se is so kind and thoughtful and will make sure your pets are well taken care of and loved. She sent me pictures of my two cats and her snuggling and enjoying each other's company. It really gave me a warm feeling , knowing the were loved while I was away. She left my house in order and quite clean. She also ran into a few problems and kindly dealt with them. I will always ask Michele to sit when I'm traveling. She is a real gem!!

This was the second time Olga helped me with my pets. No known issues first time. This time, she was to pet sit my cat & lizard for a week. She diligently sent photos every couple of days & remained in touch. Upon return, I messaged her I was nearly home. No response. The cat was somewhat frantic and clingy, which was odd. The house was as we left it. Still no response from Olga. I locked myself out the following day and when scrolling through the smart home records to reset the lock, it seems Olga stayed a few hours after I left for the week, then left herself, not to return until the day we got back, then for about 30 min and gone again. Explains frantic cat, which thankfully was not dead cat. Lastly, did not return a $50 garage RFID, despite being asked before I left and reviving two texts after I returned, requesting it back.

Lauren is amazing!! Our kitties felt instantly at ease with her, even the one who takes a few more days to feel comfortable around new people. Our house was spotless, she even went out of her way to wash the towels and sheets she used (which we were not expecting at all!). We received nearly daily updates about our kitties, including photos and videos, and she handled them like a pro when they got into hissing matches. We came back to two really happy kitties. I'm super grateful she was the one taking care of them. You can't find a better sitter, really. Thank you for everything, Lauren. Let us know when you're back in town!!

Best cat and house sitter ever! I was so fortunate to find Anna when she had availability. Communication was easy and consistent. I never worried about my cats or the house as all was taken care of. Trust this pet/house sitter! She’s responsible and wonderful.

Boy, did I gey lucky with Rachelle and Lou! I am so happy with their excellent care of our home and our pets. They both went above and beyond. Lou performed a few repairs. They organized my cupboards, creating order out of chaos. They tidied up and left our home cleaner than when they arrived. Our home sparkled. And we were treated to home made chocolate chip muffins. Written communication and pictures were excellent. Our pets, Poshie and Leo, were well fed, loved up and contented. Did they miss us? I doubt it. Rachelle's stated goal was to get my skittish and grumpy cat, Leo, in her lap . It worked, even if it was only for a minute for a start. If they were here longer, he would have made himself at home in her lap. Poshie overcame her skepticism of stangers in the house and cuddled up to Rachelle and Lou. I sincerely hope to have them back for future pet sits. Any time!

Gina is the house sitter you need! She sat for me and Mishka for three weeks and I cannot recommend her highly enough. She is kind, reliable and thoughtful and she was very understanding about the road outside my house being resurfaced (noisily) while I was away She is superbly well organised, communication before and during the sit was brilliant. She sent great updates while I was away and I now have better photos of Mishka than I have ever managed to take. He looked supremely happy and relaxed in her company and he can be quite shy with new people - not with Gina though, she is a cat whisperer for sure I returned to a spotlessly clean house, washed sheets, milk in the fridge and lots of other really thoughtful touches. I felt completely confident that Mishka was in safe hands while I was away and I would be delighted if she ever wants to sit for me again. If she applies to sit for you you should definitely say yes!

We couldn’t have asked for a better pair to look after Opi while we were on holiday for three weeks. Carola sent regular updates and photos, left our place looking exactly as we left and even kindly bought new toys to keep Opi entertained ! Would happily have her back anytime. Thank you for treating our baby and home with the most respect ❤️

Natacha took excellent care of our two cats, as well as our home. She was easy to communicate with, friendly, and organized, and left our home just as it was when we left. I would recommend her without hesitation!

Daniel stepped up and took On an additional pet without complaining. Created a lot more work for him but he met the challenge without complaint. All critters and house still standing and in good shape on our return

Jason did a fabulous job taking care of our cat Emmy and our home. He was prompt with communication and arrival and left everything in perfect order.
