“Stephanie watched our very large and anxious dog for three days while we were away. She stayed in our home. She sent regular updates and asked all the right questions. She followed all directions as far as our dogs routine and needs. We came home to a clean home, as we left it! Will book again in future.”

About: I have loved all pets since I was little when my grandpa was a vet. I’ve always had dogs growing up and absolutely love taking care of all of them and I’m always looking for a new furry friend I’m currently working part-time and I always have extra time just laying around so I wanted to give myself a little something to do and something that I enjoy! I have 2 dogs of my own and they have a massive yard to run in and absolutely love going on walks that I take them on everyday and I would do the same and care for your pets like they are my own.

“Jennifer was truly amazing! Arrived early, sent constant updates, and was very pleasant to work with overall. Would definitely book again - 10/10”

About: I have had animals (dogs, cats, livestock and more) my entire life. I grew up on a farm know what animals need and how they interact with people and other animals. I’m available most anytime with notification. I am always working but if I have a pet to care for it will be the first priority. I am able to stop at your home feed, walk, clean up after them and myself. Stay with them as needed. Available for stay over night when needed.

About: Animals have been a part of my life for more than 30 years, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. Growing up, my Golden Retriever was my constant companion and best friend. That early bond taught me the importance of patience, trust, and the unconditional love that pets bring into our lives. Over the years, I've cared for dogs, birds, and rabbits, giving me experience with a variety of personalities, needs, and care routines. From energetic pets who love playtime and walks to older animals who need a gentler touch, I understand that every pet deserves individualized attention and care. One of my most meaningful experiences was rescuing my Chihuahua/Jack Russell Terrier mix in 2018. When I brought him home, he was severely infested with fleas and needed extra care, patience, and treatment to become healthy and comfortable again. Helping him recover strengthened my commitment to providing animals with the love and support they need to thrive. I've also cared for my brother's Yorkie during a period of illness, ensuring he received consistent attention, comfort, medication, and monitoring. This experience taught me the importance of being attentive to changes in a pet's behavior and maintaining a calm, reassuring presence when they're not feeling their best. As a pet caregiver, I treat every animal as if they were my own. Whether your pet needs companionship, exercise, playtime, feeding, medication reminders, or simply someone who genuinely enjoys being around animals, I will provide dependable, loving care and regular updates so you can have peace of mind while you're away. I look forward to meeting you and your furry (or feathered) family members! Why Pet Owners Choose Me 30+ years of hands-on experience with dogs, birds, and rabbits Experience caring for rescue pets and senior or sick animals Patient, dependable, and attentive to individual needs Comfortable following feeding schedules and care instructions Committed to treating every pet like family Regular communication and updates while you're away I'm currently home full-time, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention, supervision, and care throughout the day. Whether it's walks, playtime, feeding, potty breaks, or just companionship, I have a flexible schedule that lets me meet each pet's individual needs and maintain their normal routine. I provide attentive, personalized care for pets in both my home and my client's home. I have plenty of open outdoor space for leashed walks and exercise, and I have a friendly small dog who can provide companionship for social dogs. I always prioritize safety and follow each pet's normal routine, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise needs, and any special care instructions. I am comfortable with crate training and can accommodate crating requirements when requested. Whether caring for pets in my home or yours, I strive to create a comfortable, stress free environment where pets feel safe, happy, and well cared for.

“Catherine Z is truly an exceptional pet sitter! She took amazing care of my two French Bulldogs, giving them plenty of playtime and attention. It was clear they adored her, and I loved knowing they were in such good hands. Catherine kept me updated throughout, sending adorable pictures and videos that reassured me they were happy and well cared for. If you're looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and communicative, I highly recommend her!”

“Marissa took wonderful care of our house and three dogs. The house was clean when we returned, communication was great throughout the stay, and it was obvious our dogs were well cared for and loved on while we were away. We came home to happy pups and total peace of mind. I have already booked her again!”

“Jackie has come to the rescue for myself and husband while vacationing in Lauderdale. We have our small 14 year old Maltese with us, and had no choice but to take him with us. He doesn’t do well at boarding facilities. I decided to get a dog sitter with the hopes of finding someone asap that not only takes good care of my dog, but is friendly with myself and husband too. It’s hard to trust good people. Jackie is wonderful and accommodating to the times we need. Will use her again in the future when I’m back in Lauderdale. Highly recommend!”

Christina P.

“I have not left my dog with anyone before using Caroline and was very nervous as he is the most important thing in my life. Caroline not only saved his life from a loose dog attack but took amazing care of Walter. I was only gone for a few days but got constant updates and photos of my little dude. I will be using Caroline exclusively if possible and could not recommend her more highly”
