“Joshua was absolutely amazing!! Was able to watch Harbor last minute ! She came home so tired after a day at the Barkley! We will definitely be using Joshua again to watch after harbor! Thanks again:)”


“This was my dog Maeve's first time doing doggie daycare with Julie, Brian, and their dog Horatio, and she had a great time! They kept me updated during and gave me a full report afterward. I'll definitely be making this a regular thing!”


“We have been looking for a daycare for our dog for so long since moving to the area. We were so hopeful when we brought her to Erandi and Marc’s. Their friendliness and kindness towards our dog made us relax right away. We knew that our sweet and shy girl would have a great day with Marc and Erandi! She immediately loved running around their large yard and playing with their own sweet dogs. I also appreciated that we received video and photos of our dog during her daycare stay, so, we were comforted by seeing her enjoying herself throughout the day. We knew we found her perfect daycare when we drove up to their home, for her second daycare visit, and she wagged her tail so much and jumped excitedly on their gate, ready for us to open it and let her in! And when we picked her up, she was not ready to leave, LOL!! Erandi and Marc are very flexible and provide a safe and happy environment for your dog. We will go to them anytime we need care because we know our dog is happy, comfortable and treated like one of their own!”



“Beverly was terrific with my dog! It was comforting to know that’s she’s an absolute professional. I look forward to using her again real soon.”


“Milo had a great time with Elisa. She took him last minute for me, sent pictures to keep me updated and was flexible on timing. Highly recommended!”


“Never really thought I would be able to find someone like Kelly.... professional, friendly, Lily loved her, sent me pictures and kept me in the loop. I'm taking Lily back tomorrow for doggy daycare so that I can enjoy Memorial Day knowing she will get excellent care. I will be a repeat client.”


“My go-to sitter, so glad I found them. Thanks again!”


About: Animals have always been part of my life. I grew up with pets and even worked on an animal farm. I just really love animals, and they tend to feel calm and safe around me. I’ve looked after playful pups and senior dogs too. My poodle lived to 18, and in his later years, I helped him navigate blindness and hearing loss with lots of patience and love. That taught me how important gentle care is, especially as pets get older. What sets me apart is my calm energy and natural connection with animals. Whether we’re out for a walk or just hanging out, I’ll treat your pet like family, because that’s what they are. Pet care fits into my life really naturally. I make my own schedule, so I have the flexibility to give animals the time and attention they deserve. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or just keeping them company, I genuinely enjoy making space for animals in my routine, they bring me peace and joy. I keep things simple and cozy. Whether I’m at your place or they’re at mine, I stick to your pet’s routine and make sure they feel safe, loved, and relaxed. Lots of play, fresh air, cuddles (if they want them), and keeping their space clean and comfy. I treat them like my own.

“My pup isn’t the easier pup to handle but she did it with ease! She kept me updated of him throughout the day and was very flexible with drop off/pick times.”


“Laurie took excellent care of our dogs in her "doggie day care" for 2 days! I highly recommend her and will be using her services again. She sent lots of pictures and has great communication!”


About: I have been a dog-lover and canine companion all of my life. I have trained dogs in general obedience commands, and truly feel connected to them. I have experience with feeding/medicines, elderly/hip issues, leash pullers, and sleepy-heads alike. My own dogs are a 15 year old border-collie, rescue, and a shelter adopted Shepard mix who is about a year old. I can bathe your pup, walk them, jog them, and take naps with them. Whatever their level of activity- I’m here. As a work-from-home employee, I have additional time to look after pets that just need company or extra outside time. I like the little mutts and I cannot lie. I provide the same environment I would want my own dog to have, with responsible attention and safety at all times. I'm happy to discuss details if you have questions or concerns, please let me know.

About: I have grown up with dogs my entire life. I had two golden retrievers at two different points in my life. My friends and neighbors have also asked me to take care of their dogs numerous times. I am good at teaching tricks and love taking them for walks. I work from home at my current full time job. Therefore, I will be able to take care, let out and walk the dog(s). I also live downtown so it will be very easy to maneuver around. I live in an apartment so it will be very easy to keep an eye on the dog. I keep my balcony door closed, but by chance it went outside, the balcony is fenced it completely. It also stands about 4 feet high. For the clients home, I will make sure all the necessary doors are closed and will keep good track when taking the dog outside.


“My puppy just spent three days of daycare with Nikki and had a great time. He can be a bit nervous at first, but he warmed up quickly and looked super happy in the pictures I received. I really appreciate Nikki’s patience with helping to acclimate him to what he initially thought was a scary situation. We’ll definitely be back. Thank you Nikki!”


About: I love dogs! I’ve used Rover, with my beloved dog Petey and figured I could do the same. I work from home weekends. I have a fenced in yard, I was so happy to come back from my trip and pick up my dog safe and happy I want to provide that for others! I’ve watched multiple dogs up to 3, and all different kinds big and small. I want your dog to be comfortable and well taken care of. I work from home my dog is usually in the room with me during work, but dogs are free to roam around as they please. I supervise outside in backyard. I feed dogs twice a day, multiple bathroom breaks, my doggy is sweet and older and small not neutered so if separation is need I can arrange that as well. I have a real love for animals especially dogs!!

“Java had a great first day care experience with Rebekah! She loved running outside in the yard and had plenty of dog friends to play with. Rebekah is very welcoming and Java loved spending the day with her”



“Amazing care was given to our loved ones. A genuine interest in ensuring our family was not only secure, but happy and enriched furing their stay.”


“Finley had a great time! She was very accommodating with a last minute booking and When I picked Finley up he looked like he had the best day! Will use again. ”


“Sarah & Johnathan, have been amazing with my little guy since day one at our meet and greet. They asked many great questions to prepare them to better care for him. In order to make sure he would be cared for just the way I liked and to make for easy transitions between home and daycare. My schedule is one that can be very long, difficult and unpredictable and they have been so understanding and accommodating to that fact. I feel so safe and confident when Winston is with them in their home. I know he is being cared for and loved just like he was their own. They are both great at communicating and responding in a very timely manner. There is not one bad thing I could say about these two! If you are thinking about it just do it. You will not be disappointed with this doggy duo.”


About: As a long time pet lover and owner (dogs and cats), I'd love to help with your pet care needs. No matter the type of animal, temperament, or breed,I'll make sure your animal friends are loved! I'm located in downtown St. Pete on Central Ave, have transportation, and can be flexible with times and logistics. I'm currently working part time fully remote which allows plenty of flexibility with pet care. I have a dog and cat of my own, both of which are friendly in the event of boarding. I have my own transportation. My apartment complex has a fenced play area and nearby parks for walking. As a dog owner, I know how important play and exercise are and will make sure they're having a good time!

About: Your pup is important! I want to make sure they are smiling and getting what they need. Walks, love, pats, food to make you comfortable while away. I am vigilant with walks and the heat. Always bringing water, finding the shade, and testing the ground to make sure it is safe for your pup. I can walk more than one dog at a time and if we need to avoid other dogs we do. I was a corporate girlie, now a WFH dog mom. I know how it feels leaving your pup while at work and getting home later than expected. I am taking pups (limited spots) for all day care in my home. I am also available for walks (morning, midday, and evening) and overnights everyday! I look forward to meeting you and your pup soon giving them lots of pats and love while you’re away! And photo updates of your fur baby are a must!! I’m in a house (with my 6 year old goldendoodle). He is well trained. Energetic. We go on multiple walks a day and when it’s cool outside play in the fenced in backyard. I make sure they are well hydrated, fed, and played with.
