Dog Sitters in Marco, FL

My dog goes to camp in st Pete and Tampa! He definitely favors this camp due to smaller groups. Hes been going for several months and also had grooming. They sometimes upload photos at the end of the day which is nice to see and your pup gets a report card. I love the flexibility of drop off and pick up. It’s such a huge convenience to not be locked into certain pick up and drop off times! I highly recommend.

***RAVE!*** SEPARATION ANXIETY REVIEW - 1st Time Customer: My pup was stressed the first night I dropped her off but the overnight staff stayed with her to calm her nerves so she could sleep with some companionship. They slowly integrated her into group settings and she was able to enjoy the outdoor space. I received several photos each day and that eased my nerves tremendously! The staff was incredibly responsive to our WhatsApp message thread and I even received a phone call to discuss my pup’s first update. I know my dog’s mannerisms very well since we are inseparable and together 24/7. I posted several photos on this review but I can easily identify the sole picture from night 1 with her heightened anxiety look and pinned back ears. The subsequent photos are in sharp contrast and she’s visibly enjoying her new friends. We will absolutely be back for my remaining business trips! I highly recommend the facility and staff which are top tier! Background of Anxiety and Previous Boarding Facilities for Reference: My basenji pup had severe separation anxiety since day 1 of her adoption and it has not subsided when we are separated. My job recently required travel again and my 1st 2 business trips were an absolute nightmare dealing with the aftermath of previous boarding experiences. After the first trip, my pup left a different boarding facility with a bout of diarrhea requiring me to take her out every 2-3 hours for 2 entire days. The second trip ended with a very expensive late night emergency vet appointment due to anxiety induced colitis. She was so stressed that she lost 2.5 pounds in a few short hours and I rushed her to a 24 hour emergency clinic. (VEG Tampa was fabulous!) It was heartbreaking to see the toll my travel was causing my pup and I was beginning to consider a resignation if I couldn’t find a good fit. In addition to her severe anxiety, she’s a master escape artist that would rival Houdini. She’s escaped kennels, collars, harnesses, fences, chewed through her leash several times in seconds and has high prey drive. She tends to immediately run to the busiest street with the fastest cars to chase. As a result, I’m extraordinarily overprotective and terrified that unqualified facilities would not be able to board her safely. The staff at Paws Paradise Fur Life exceeded my expectations and threw me a lifeline. I’m very impressed by their business model as they are geared towards pet owners who are passionate about their fur babies happiness and well-being rather than stacking up small kennels and cramming as many dogs as possible into tight spaces. THANK YOU! <3

Paws is THE BEST. Not only do I trust them, my frenchie loves attending daycare! It’s his favorite day of the week. Everyone makes us feel at home and they show him so much love. I am happy to find somewhere that genuinely cares about my boy as much as I do. Thank you so much to everyone at paw’s for a safe space for my boy!

Carly from Paws Paradise took great care of my two cats while we were away! It is such a great comfort to have a pet sitter that you can rely on to watch your pets when you travel. She visited the house as requested and sent photos of the girls playing and having fun so that we would not miss them as much. I appreciate your professionalism and care! Thank you to the team!

This was my first time dropping off my dog here Where are you? and it was last minute during Thanksgiving and they were more than accommodating. My dog was so happy here they sent pictures of my dog running, and he looked like he was having so much fun. It was such a relief to know that he was in good hands. They were super sweet and friendly and I would 100% recommend this place for your pet pet

As a first time user of any kennel service, I was very nervous about leaving my dog overnight without his family. Little did I know Paws Paradise Fur Life IS like a second family! I received photos of my pup looking extremely happy while staying here during his visit, and the staff was extremely friendly and attentive. At pick up, my dog looked like part of the pack which I was happy to see! I will be using this service again and would recommend Paws Paradise Fur Life to anyone looking for a great place to board/daycare their pup.

I recently started taking my dog here for daycare and it has been an amazing experience! Every-time we pull into the parking lot, Tito gets excited because he knows he’s going to get a day with so many friends. He’s only 2 so has a lot of energy and they do what they can to help him burn it off. I know he can be a rowdy puppy but they always welcome him with a smile and so much love. I have nothing but amazing things to say about this place and their staff!!

Wow… I don’t have enough amazing things to say about Paws Paradise! This is my dog’s first time at doggy daycare, and of course I was nervous, but I am already at ease thanks to the amazing staff here. I’ve been getting updates about how she’s doing, and I know she’s in the best hands. I’m so glad I found this place! 😍 If you’re looking for a place to take your dog to for boarding or doggy daycare, I definitely recommend Paws Paradise!

I can’t express enough how life changing this daycare has been for me and my boys. Due to their histories, one of my dogs is extremely fearful of people while the other has a very short temper with dogs who are still learning manners/boundaries. After our first meet and greet, I was sold on this daycare and the women who run it. They are clearly knowledgeable at both recognizing dogs with behavioral quirks and implementing strategies so the dogs can be successful in a daycare setting, even with their limitations. Both my boys absolutely love the staff there (and that’s a BIG thing for my fearful boy) - and they are always posting the cutest photos or selling festive doggy apparel. Absolutely love and trust this daycare!

Augie and Daugie love staying at Paws Paradise Fur Life. They always receive special attention with all the other pups. Running around, not put in crates are the best for my boys. I don't crate them at home and we love we found a place that doesn't do that either. Thanks, PPFL!!! See you for our next vacation!

Amber takes amazing care of my dog Oliver and treats him like her own. She is an amazing caretaker for dogs and does so much for him! Oliver loves coming to daycare and is always excited to go there. I feel at this daycare, there is so much more care into our dogs, and I don’t even have to worry about him while im gone. I really love how interactive this daycare is and how she does so much for my dog while there are other dogs around! I recommend anyone who needs doggy daycare or boarding to go through with Amber as she is excellent at her job!

Amber was the best to our little girls. Sage and Hazel love her and her husband. They took care of them like they were their children and I couldn't be happier with the experience. Our pups liked to pull on the leash before and she trained them in only 3 days while we were away for the weekend. I am so impressed with Amber's Cozy Canine Care. She goes above and beyond. Artwork was so cute. They came home so clean, smelling good, well behaved, happy and healthy! I recommend 100%.

Amber’s Cozy Canine Care took amazing care of our girl Sadie while we were on vacation! She always sent us photos and updates of how she was doing!! She was so helpful with all communications and took our worries away! We will definitely be using her again for any time in the future! She truly is passionate about what she does and loves the animals like they are her own!💕

I highly recommend Amber and the TBCR! My fur baby, Ozzy spent 2 weeks boarded with her. She and her family loved my pup like their own. My husband and I were able to fully enjoy our Christmas trip together because we knew our dog was in great hands. All the pups get daily enrichment, treats, and love! While he was there they also worked on Ozzys socialization with other animals. TBCR is heaven sent, it’s worth the investment to know your dog is in a safe and loving environment!

Ms Amber kept my two babies for 5 days & it was a wonderful experience! I got pictures and updates multiple times throughout the day and it looked like they had a better vacation than I did. She really treats them like family! 10/10 , highly recommend.

Fantastic doggy daycare! It is my puppy Kodi's 2nd home. He has a ton of fun there and Amber's takes such good care of him!! He gets so excited when we arrive, I can hardly keep him in my arms!

I am so thankful I found Amber’s Cozy Canine Care. She is so sweet and you can tell she LOVES animals. This is the first boarding service I’ve ever used and the one I will continue using as long as I have my dogs ❤️ My pups are my best friends and I can tell Amber treats them as her own :) Please don’t have any doubts and contact Amber for all your Canine needs. I rarely write reviews but she deserves it 🥰🐾 Thank you for taking care of Sunny Moon & Bolt!

I travel often, and this place was a lifesaver at the last minute. I love my dog and always want the best care for him, so it made me happy knowing he wasn’t staying in a kennel overnight. Amber treats the dogs like they’re her own, and her vet skills are such a bonus! I highly recommend this place—your dog will be in great hands, I guarantee it!

Amber is absolutely the best! Wonderful communication, she lets you know how the training is going in real time. She sends pictures videos and text messages to keep you informed. She is a wonderful trainer and person. We dropped off one puppy and picked up a whole different one. Obedient, well trained, but still retained the wonderful personality. You can’t go wrong with Amber and I would use her services again and again without hesitation!

Absolutely the best! Our first time boarding our dog for Christmas while we were out of state, we got frequent updates with pictures / videos, the cutest art work, and even treats! Amber truly cares your dogs like her own and I’m so thankful for her spoiling our pup for the holidays!

I could not be more pleased with the care that Rachel provided for my kitty. Rachel went above and beyond. I went out of state not knowing that Hurricane Milton would be such a threat to our area. Rachel stayed in my home (in an evacuation A zone) until the threat became one where she would need to go inland where it would be much safer. She prepped my condo for the storm, bringing in patio furniture, etc. and most importantly, took my kitty with her to keep her safe. I was so incredibly grateful to her at a time when I was helpless and could not come home. She then brought my kitty home the day I would be returning and opened everything up since there was no electricity. I felt so much less anxious while away during such a frightening time knowing my kitty was in good hands and safe. I have already booked her for 2 more future trips and will continue to book with her anytime I am planning to be away. It is especially nice that Rachel works from home so I knew that my kitty would have company throughout the day and overnight. She also did a very thorough intake to learn more about my kitty and my preferences for her care and sent photos while I was away. Rachel is very professional, kind and gentle. Thank you Rachel, you are amazing!

So we met Rachel through another company that couldn't help us so they referred her, and I'm so glad they did. She came out twice to meet and greet our pups (4). She came out 3 times a day for 8 days fed them let them out and played with them. My dogs liked her very much and being able to come home to dogs that are happy and not stressed out from being boarded. I would absolutely recommend Rachel to anyone who asks.

My 3 dogs absolutely love Rachel! We’re so lucky to have someone like her taking care of our doggos. They mean the world to us and she does everything to make the transition easy. She’s great about giving us updates and sends cute pics if asked. If you’re looking for trust, honesty, and a person that cares for dogs like family don’t hesitate to book with her.

Rachel has been staying in my home and taking care of my pets while I am on vacation for 4 years now. There is no one else I would trust to handle all 4 of my pets (2 cats and 2 dogs). They love her and are always perfectly taken care of while she is there. I cannot recommend her enough if you are looking for a treasured and trusted pet sitter who simply adores animals, and will treat them as if they are her own

I have two not super friendly cats and they absolutely love Rachel. She’s one of the few people that can get them to come out of hiding and hang out. Rachel is a dream pet sitter! She’s always communicates well and send me photos how the cats are doing and will let me know of any issues. She is very trustworthy, clean and responsible and leaves my home just like she found it. I could not recommend a better pet sitter and I will always choose her first.

I used Bayshore Pet Sitting to in house sit my little black kitty Bruce Wayne. BPS made fast friends with my animal and they have an incredible natural way with pets. Very affordable and I will use them again! Bruce was very happy and I was updated with cute photos of my baby boy.

Having had all manner of pets in my life, including rabbits, bearded dragons, cats, dogs, exotic fish, ducks.....(the list goes on) There's no one I'd trust more than Rachel with BSP. She is trust worthy, kind, and has immaculate attention to detail ensuring my two beloved mutts get the care they deserve and the exercise they need. 100% would recommend to anyone seeking pet sitting in the area.

Rachel watched our Cockapoo, Luna for two weeks while our whole family went on vacation and we had nobody to watch her. Everything went perfect, and when we returned, it was as if Luna didn't even miss us. We were thankful that she was available, and did such an amazing job!

My fur babies are in the safest and friendliest hands with Bayshore Pet Sitting. When I am away from home I have peace of mind knowing they are being cared for by someone they think is family!

Kiki is fantastic. She genuinely cares about the pets she walks and is attentive to their needs—she actually spotted an alarming swollen lymph node on my puppy’s throat and she sent me photos while I was at work (thankfully, while the swelling developed quickly, it was an infection and easily treatable). Kiki also sends photos and videos of their walks, she is extremely responsive, and also flexible with scheduling. We are thankful to have found Kiki!

Kiki is just the best!! Heaven sent! We have a German shepherd and a husky. Our shepherd has pretty bad separation anxiety so I was always so worried dropping her off at pet sitters, but when we found Kiki everything changed. Alaska still has anxiety but is MUCH more comfortable, Kiki knows just how to care for her and make us more comfortable as well haha! Kiki texts us tons of pictures & videos of our pups throughout the day so we know how they're doing and gives us such an ease of mind knowing they're in the best hands. It's not easy for us to trust anyone with our fur babies but we full heartedly trust and love Kiki! As do our pups :)

Our retriever Lolita had a great time with Kiki. Our dog was at Kiki's place for more than a week and she sent us pictures and videos everyday. I could tell our dog was extremely happy staying with her. We’ll definitely leave her with Kiki again knowing that she is safe and happy!!!

Kiki responded right away when I needed her and it saved my vacation !! She kept me updated about my dog throughout his entire stay with her. Each picture and video she sent, he looked completely comfortable and happy. I never had to wonder if he was safe or how he was doing because she kept me well-informed the whole time. I was nervous because it was my first time leaving my dog with someone who wasn’t a family member. Kiki made not only me feel safe leaving my fur baby with her, but you could tell he was having a blast in all the videos. He didn’t even act weird when he got home! Turns out he got a little vacation too! 10/10 recommend.

Kiki’s Pet Services is the absolute best! My goldendoodle, Benji, loves vacationing with Kiki. When I drop him off he runs inside and does not look back. He receives tons of care and attention while I’m away and I receive numerous pictures, videos, and updates. He’s always so happy and is constantly playing with his new friends. There really is no one better to watch your babe than Kiki.

This was my first time using Kiki’s Pet Services and I am beyond happy with our experience. I typically get worried when leaving my puppy for the weekend, but Kiki made us feel comfortable from the very beginning. We had a meet and greet which helped acclimate my puppy to her environment and it was nice for us to meet face to face, too. I felt comfortable going out of town without my dog for the first time ever. She sends pictures, updates, and truly cares deeply about all animals. I am so thankful for her services.

Kiki is the best! She watched our two dogs while we were out of town for our wedding and everything went so well. Kiki was always sending updates and keeping us informed the entire time we were away which allowed us to relax and enjoy our time. Highly recommend Kiki to anyone that needs someone to watch their pups!

I don't know where to begin - Kiki is the absolute BEST! We've always had family watch our furbaby, but after reading Kiki's reviews and hearing mutual friends rave about her, we decided to try her services out while we took a vacation. Our expectations were exceeded by a long shot! Not only is she amazing with communication, she will send numerous updates to let you know how your dog is doing which is a must for us. Our doodle is a lover, but he is VERY afraid of storms. Kiki gave him attention and extra love to make sure he felt safe. This isn't just a "job" for her, she truly loves all dogs and will treat them like her own. You can see her passion shine within when you meet her. We will never leave our dog with anyone else, our heart and mind is content knowing our furbabe is the in the best hands.

Kiki is absolutely the best, my dog is so picky I was afraid she wouldn’t cooperate for her but she loves her and seems very comfortable. Kiki also sends a ton of pictures and videos, so if you’re obsessed with your dog like me, it’s the perfect way to stay connected and gives you peace of mind that your baby is in great hands when you can’t be there. Can’t say enough good things!

Kiki was the best to my three babies while I was on vacation. She made sure to walk my dog every day and she was always responsive if I needed anything. She also sent me tons of pictures every visit and I can't say enough nice things about her.

I’ve been a Paws n Rec customer for about 3.5 years. He usually adventures at Lemon St (which is also awesome) and for Christmas he boarded at Grace. He really had a great time and was very well cared for! Great staff, great facility and happy dogs! And thanks for the pic - I attached it!! (He’s the blonde :) ) Thank you!

I absolutely love taking my fur baby to Paws n’ Rec on Grace! The staff is always so welcoming & kind! Have always answered any questions I have had about boarding or how Winston’s day went. Not to mention that my pup is always so excited to go hangout with his friends. Paws n’ rec always takes the best photos too!!

Such a great experience for my girl Hazel! She had her first evaluation and everyone was SO sweet and patient with her. I appreciate that they called mid-day to let me know how she was adjusting. Really shows they care about the doggos! Hazel was so happy and tired when I picked her up. looking forward to more daycare fun!!

Paws n Rec was THE best choice for my pup. I want to start by saying that my dog has fairly high anxiety when it comes to humans... non-aggressive reactivity, but quite TIMID. This was really bad two months ago.. but now, thanks to the staff at Paws n Rec, I can see a massive difference in walks every day! My pup is less nervous of people and is becoming more confident in many other ways too! Thank you all SO SO much! Penny is now genuinely excited to see y’all in the morning and happy to come home for a good sleep at the end of the day

Our dog loves Paws ‘n’ Rec Grace Street! He has the best time and I love getting updates from his report cards. The staff is always so quick to respond and we truly love sending our dog here!

Our fur baby Dexter loves Paws 'n' Rec. He knows when he is going when I get his traveling leash out and ask if he wants to go for a ride. We have been going there since they opened for daycare and boarding. Staff is friendly, knowledgeable, and truly cares about Dexter's well-being. If you need a place for your pup to stay overnight or play and release some energy, this is the place.

We have used Paws and Rec- Grace since December 2023 for daycare 5 days week most weeks and overnight/ boarding when we are out of town. We have used a few other daycares in the area, there are a number of reasons why we only use them despite living 45 minutes away right now. The hours are more flexible as we often have different work schedules from week to week starting early AM; the ratio of dogs are less; the staff is consistently professional and friendly and the dogs safety being a priority is clear. We have two high energy breeds with very different personalities they recognize and cater to. Thank you!

Great staff, very clean. I like that the new dogs have to be interviewed and approved before they can play with all the dogs. My Labrador retriever, Boca absolutely loves going for day care and boarding.

We love Paws n' Rec- Grace! What makes the facility special is everyone who works there! I truly feel like they love all of the pups. Hattie has the best day every day she spends at Paws n' Rec! Thanks for all you do!

Paw's and Rec Grace Location is awesome! Lido loves going, we have had zero issues, the staff are super friendly and awesome! He comes home healthy and perfectly tired from his days playing there!

Always take great care of our dogs, affordably priced and great staff. Would not take our dogs anywhere else!

I've been taking my dogs there for years, ever since the previous owners. Karen and her staff cleaned and refurbished the facility to meet much needed standards when she bought and took over and we've been very pleased. They're responsive and accomodating to requests and make sure our dogs are well-cared for in our absence and always keep open lines of communication.

Love this places. We have three good size dogs and are very spoiled. We used this place a couple times and they are wonderful, friendly responsive staff, called if anything was wrong and made sure our boys were taken care of. Our dogs went back to them for their good bye attention, which for our boys says so much.

This was the first time that I had to board Benjamin since I rescued him a few years ago. He doesn’t like other dogs and can get pretty stressed out when they are around. I didn’t know what to expect when I dropped him off this weekend, but I am so happy we found this place. They were so patient and kind with Ben and I. They truly cared about Ben and his needs. If I ever have to board him again, I will definitely come back here. I can’t recommend them enough!

Under new ownership. The new owners are great, I boarded my three dogs and my daughters dog. Their prices are very reasonable and affordable. We were given a tour of the facility when we arrived. All of the dogs were in shaded kennels, had water in their bowls, had plenty of space and seemed to be content. The kennels were all clean. Our dogs were definitely happy to see us when we picked them up but did not seem to be stressed or unhappy. The only reason I did not give them 5 stars is because it was our first time boarding our hairy babies there but I will definitely board them again and I also recommended them to anyone who is skeptical about boarding their beloved 4 legged family members.

I tried Rivers Edge Pet Resort after the boarding location that I usually use was not available for a last minute trip. These guys are awesome and will now be my preferred boarding location. They provided great customer service and my dog seemed happier and less stressed than when I picked her up at other locations. Highly recommended!

Just picked up Sophia, Sigma and Toby from Rivers Edge and I cannot say enough good things about Trish and the rest of the team! I'm so thankful for their patience and love this week and am so grateful that we found somewhere to care for the furbabies ❤️

Have boarded my dog twice and my cats once. They always come home in good moods and they dog got excited both times he got to go. Very responsive and keep in touch if they have a problem or question. They are our go to for pet boarding.

The care that our dogs are given here is amazing! Our 2 dogs get so excited when we turn down Hwy 301 because they know where they are going. They fight to get into the door. Thank you to everyone that takes care of our beloved 4-legged children.

My wife takes our dogs to be groomed on a monthly basis. We have 2 yorkies and a maltese mix. Typically they come home looking good but after coming home from Rivers Edge they looked GREAT! They were recommended to us and since they are so close to home, we thought it was worth a try. Well worth it. They will always go there from now on.

I recently used Rover Heights for the first time to take care of my dog while I was out of town—including staying in our home and pet taxi services. From the moment I first reached out to Jenny to our meet and greet with our sitter Jeanne, I was impressed by the knowledge, experience and warmth of the team! My dog is routine-driven and can get sad when we are away. What truly stood out was Jeanne’s care and attention to his routine and putting him at ease. We received regular updates and photos, which reassured me that he was in excellent hands and having a great time. My dog was happy and relaxed staying in his home with his new friend, and he even got lots of extra love and walks at the park (his favorite)! I will definitely be using Rover Heights again and highly recommend their services to anyone looking for a reliable and compassionate pet sitter. Thank you for taking such wonderful care of my pup!

A few years ago I needed to travel out of town and my dog (a German Shepherd) was not responding well to being left at home alone even when I had to go in to the office post-pandemic. Jenny (and the most amazing dog walker, Danielle) were so patient in working with me, getting to know me and Alexis. Since then, they've been my go-to and Alexis loves them! I love the way I know I can count on them to stop in, even when it's short notice. I also appreciate the pictures they send during the visit so I can see for myself that she really is just fine. :)

Great service. Our two dane boys loved them and our reptiles were well taken care of as well. Daily pictures and user friendly app. Definitely Reccomend!

I used Rover Heights while I was on a travel nurse contract in Tampa and had a fantastic experience. The visits were always timely, and I felt like my dog was very well taken care of. I could not recommend them more!!

Rover heights has been caring for my pups for years now. Jenny and her crew are great. My dogs love them. They are reliable and trustworthy and absolutely dog lovers❤️!!

Finding people you can trust with your pets and home can be really challenging. The ladies at Rover Heights really go above and beyond to care for our animals. From weekday walks with our 2 active dogs to weekend checks on our cat when we are out of town, we can count on them to provide excellent care for our pets! I love that they give photo updates of each visit, and even take care of extra things like bringing in the mail or picking up after one of the animals has gotten into some trouble around the house. I really appreciate the whole team! Thanks Rover Heights!

I used this company in November 2019, and I am very happy with what it stands for, how it operates, and it's value. I needed someone to check in on my dogs, let them out, feed them, etc during a week in November, and this company surpassed all my expectations. Jenny, the owner, is on top of all communication, she uses an app that makes all communication (and payment) very easy. My dog sitter was Danielle, and she was fantastic, sent me pictures, and was very good with my large dog as well as my smaller ones. She also took in the mail, and any packages outside the door. She was very easy to communicate with, and the app this company uses allowed Danielle to check in and out, which let me know when she was there for a visit and when she left. Overall, I gave this company 5 stars because they cleared all my concerns while I was away, they did exactly what they said they were going to do, they were organized, reasonable, excellent with the timing and methods for communicating with me, and their prices are excellent. I am very happy, would recommend this company to my friends and family (and have) and will use this company again! Edited to include that it’s now 2023, and I’m still using this company, I’m still very happy, and I greatly appreciate the consistency as far as their service!🙌🏼

I contacted Rover Heights when I needed care for my pup last minute, and they were able to work me in. The care was great, I received lots of photos. I would absolutely use them again!

I have been using rover heights and Danielle specifically over the past month or so 1-2 times a week to walk our dogs. I can’t tell you how awesome Danielle and the service has been since we got started. Our one pup is a bit aggressive to newcomers and Danielle has done an amazing job since we met her with the dogs. Both of them love her and I can see from the picture she sends that they are so happy to have her there when we can’t be to play, use the restroom, and hang out. As someone who was very leery of having strangers in my home I can assure you this was one of the best decisions we made. It has brought a great deal of comfort knowing we can call rover heights when we need them and that they’re happy to be there. I would recommend them to anyone needing a dog walker. Everything from the consultation to payments has been easy.

I can't rave enough about Rover Heights LLC. They helped me so much on my wedding day ensuring hat my pup was there to take photos. They are reliable, professional and overall great people who really care about your pets. I'd give them 10 stars if I could. Definitely recommend!

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!

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!

Let me start off by saying Ms. Lauri is the absolute best dog sitter I have ever had! I went out of town on vacation and was hesitant with leaving my dog behind because he has separation anxiety. Ms Lauri gave me the peace of mind I needed in order to enjoy my vacation. She sent pictures throughout the day and interacted with me as well! My dog loved being there! I appreciate her and definitely recommend her if you are looking for an awesome pet sitter!

Lauri was great! She sent pictures throughout our trip to show us how Bella was doing. She would update us on Bella and was very good at taking care of any requests. Her dog is adorable and great with Bella too. Bella was relaxed when we picked her up and responded well to her environment. We already booked Lauri again because we were so pleased. She's affordable and she knows what she's doing. It's a great environment for your dog if you're getting away and she has plenty of room for them. Lauri is truly a dog person.

If I could rate 1000 stars I would! We absolutely LOVED Robin + Sandy and so did our pups, Archie and Bella! Never have we been happier with dog care! We went away for a week and for the entire time, our dogs were beyond loved and cared for. Robin is so detailed and attentive of the specific needs of each of our dogs - from medication to basic love and care to make them as comfortable as possible. Robin even sent us this sweet festive 4th of July photo while we were on her trip! We could not recommend them enough! We can’t wait to continue working with Waggin’ at your Door 🐶🐶

Robin and sandy took such good care of my 2 year old aussie, Scout! He was excited every time we got back to their house, and I was given text updates and pictures throughout the day showing how much fun he was having. My work schedule changed and we don’t have frequent bookings with robin anymore, but she is our go-to when we need a sitter.

Great Dane tested, Great Dane approved!!! Robin was amazing! From sniffy walks to couch cuddles Greysen was truly loved on and cared for. Robin was very attentive to our spoiled pooch. We have already recommended her services to a myriad of others. We will definitely be in touch. 🐾 …

Robin and Sandy provide exceptional service with so much love and care! Before boarding our dog I was able to do an in-person interview and learn about the cozy home environment they provide your pup with! They sent us daily updates with photos and videos about the wonderful adventures our dog went on. If I could give six stars I would! Our fur baby can’t wait to go back!

We are so lucky that we found Robin through a FB recommendation. We didn't have a great experience with a previous kennel and our vet doesn't board. Robin took awesome care of our dogs while we were away for a few days. She sent us photos daily. The pups were so happy & content with her. We are so happy we found someone who loves our boys like her own. We would give her more than 5⭐ if we could.

Robin and her husband truly love dogs!! I heard about their dog boarding business from a close friend who boarded her dog at their home in Seminole Heights!! After going there for a “meet & greet “ I truly felt comfortable leaving our standard poodle Brigitte at their home for 18 days while we traveled. They took her on walks , had play dates with other dogs and send me photos of her while we were gone!! They kept her in their house which was a nice change than with other larger boarding businesses in Tampa!! Check out their website !!

Robin did a great job taking care of my doodle! He loves when she comes by for drop-ins and especially loved his overnight stay! He definitely feels loved!

I always wanted a place where my dog can feels like at his home and let me tell you that Robin made her place my dog's dream vacation. We love how Robin deal with our crazy travel schedule, always accomodate us and goes above and beyond.. she even went to my house while I was traveling to get food for my dog after my travel was delayed! I have never felt so at ease to leave my dog with someone as I am with Robin! She also asks a lot of questions in order to make the stay perfect for your dog. I honestly and genuinely have recommended her because it's the best person to take care of your baby!

Robin and her husband Sandy were wonderful to work with! You could tell immediately that they loved dogs, and were very excited to meet ours! We left our puppy Obi with them for his first overnight visit away from us and they kept us updated with pictures and videos of his stay. They set our nerves at ease with the care they gave him and the frequent updates. Obi was also able to socialize with other dogs in a controlled environment, and it was great knowing they were there to make sure they all behaved! I don’t think we could have asked for a better experience, and we can’t wait to use them again in the future!

Robin and Sandy are wonderful! They’re always so sweet to my Archie and flexible for extra walks when I’m running late. And she is always able to get the best pictures and sends me updates.

PJ is terrific! She walked/watched my dog Barkley from 2015 - 2021. He just adored her and loved staying over night when I traveled. PJ is very flexible and helped pick him up or drop him off if needed. She also gave him a good bath in between grooming appointments, which was a huge bonus! Now PJ watches / walks my new girl, Casey Brown. She helps with the training and sets up play dates for her to socialize and play with other dogs while I am at work. She has so much fun and it gives me such joy to see her so happy. I couldn’t do it without her! I have had to travel and have no worries when I have to board her @ Yanni’s. I have such peace of mind knowing she is in such good hands when I am away. A true treasure for your pet!

Gracie stayed with PJ for over a week and loved her visit! It was a very loving and safe environment for her. I highly recommend her to everyone 🥰 …

I have used Yanni’s pet sitting service for over 10 years. I never worry about my pup when she is with this sitter. She does private boarding and when my pup sees the sitter come to the door, my pup goes crazy with excitement. She also watches over my cat when I’m out of town too. I would recommend this sitter 100 times over. Nothing better than knowing your fur family/babies is in good hands and that the fur babies are happy. She is trustworthy safe :) call this sitter immediately :)

PJ is absolutely wonderful with our dogs when we were out of town for 2 weeks. She sent us periodic updates, including pictures that really put our minds at ease. We are confident that our dogs would be looked after and loved while we were away, and they absolutely were. PJ is extremely professional and friendly. Couldn’t recommend her more!

I am thrilled about PJ's awesome services as a dog sitter! Now that I know of her, I will be sending my beloved dog to her every time I go out of town. She kept in touch with me while my dog was with her which I really appreciated. Also, she took the time to take pictures and videos so that I could see for myself that my dog was adjusting well. It was my dog's first experience being away from me and I felt so secure and safe knowing that she was in EXCELLENT hands! She gave me much needed advice on certain topics pertaining to dog care when I came to pick her up. Her place is perfectly designed for taking care of dogs. The beds and crates are appropriately placed against walls. There is a wonderful outdoor area for dogs to be in, along with umbrellas to shade them. One of the pluses in having her is that she genuinely loves taking care of dogs. It is not just a job, but a job that she LOVES and CARES about. Even though I reside in Pinellas County where there are many dog sitting facilities, I prefer driving to her home in Tampa, a trip well worth it. I strongly recommend her, without any reservation, in using her services.

I was incredibly happy with the pet sitting service here! My 9 month old corgi had a pleasant experience and I felt very relieved to have put her in such good hands. Prior to the pet sitting, my puppy had been struggling with obedience and after staying with PJ, she came home better trained and way more obedient! I would highly recommend this company to anyone looking for a local pet sitter. You won’t find the same level of love or care anywhere else!

Look no further!!! PJ and her pet-sitting services are the BEST around! I have been using her as a dog walker since March 2018 and couldn't be happier. First of all, she is 100% trustworthy, professional, and reliable. I receive a daily text message with pictures, an update on the walk, if my dog peed/pooped, and if she drank water. She will also feed my dog during the visit if I am working late. Each visit includes cuddles and plenty of love, too! :) Also, she is so flexible and accommodating! My work schedule is always changing and sometimes I work evenings and weekends. PJ has never missed a day that we didn't plan for way in advance!! And on the rare occasion she wasn't available, she went out of her way to make accommodations so that my dog would be taken care of. I recently needed some last-minute help on a Saturday and texted her with little warning. She had special plans that day but still went out of her way in the late morning to make a visit to my house! You will not regret your decision to use this dog walking service! Her passion and professionalism are hard to beat! :)

We have been with Yanni's since 2009, and PJ and the Yanni's Pet Sitting staff have been an outstanding addition to our Tampa lives. Whether we need one visit or multi-week visits, Yanni's has been flexible, affordable and accommodating. PJ is great with our pups as well. They are always so excited to see her and know that they'll get a long, safe walk with lots of positive reinforcement. Our busy lives of work and travel wouldn't be possible without Yanni's. Albert & Joey

Best pet-sitting service in Tampa! Had a death in the family and needed to leave town abruptly. We googled local sitters and found Yanni’s about 4 hours before our flight departed out of Tampa. PJ actually drove out to the airport to meet us and pick up our 2 dogs (50 lb. Vizslas) for the 1st time. She sent us pictures daily, took them into the pool and did just a terrific job making our rambunctious pets feel very at home and comfortable. She even washed their blankets so they would be clean when we picked them up! PJ is wonderful. Great care. Safe. Very well cared for. And very accommodating. Highly recommend!

PJ is the best! Her rates are very reasonable and I always feel comfortable being out of town knowing she’s looking after my cats. She goes above and beyond for me - checking my mail, watering some plants, taking out the garbage - all without me needing to ask. I love that she sends daily updates and multiple photos. The longest she watched my cats was for 6 weeks while I was out of the country. As a pet owner, it’s always hard to leave your pets but I trust her 100% to give the absolute best care possible. She even feeds the TNR cats I care for while I’m out of town. Could not recommend her more!!!
