“Marianne is SPECTACULAR!! She is so lovely and kind and sends wonderfully detailed updates! My grouchy cat was the best behaved I’ve seen her with Marianne! Thank you again! 😁”


“Very communicative and took a lot of pics and sent updates!”



“We just moved to Fort Lauderdale and thankfully found Lisa to watch over our two kitties while we’re away. Lisa is extremely attentive to not just our kitties needs but our needs as well. She is quick to respond to my messages, and always updates us with many photos of how they’re doing. She kept our place immaculate and even went as far as taking out our trash and doing some dishes! One of our kitties is extremely shy around new people, but he already took to her after just a couple visits. I highly recommend Lisa to take care of your furry babies, they will be in good hands!”


“Cheryl did a great job caring for our cats. She sent tons of pictures, and they were well cared for while we were out of town”


“I’m so thankful to have found Stephanie. She is always so quick to respond to booking requests and is flexible between drop ins and overnights. You can tell she has a kind spirit from a mile away and I have never been more at ease about leaving Zeke under someone’s care! After returning home from her first overnight stay, the house was in perfect condition.”


“Shannon was awesome Great communication -it was the first time we have left the dogs like this and I was a little nervous but starting with the first visit she put my mind at ease. Sending pictures and detailed everything the dogs were doing. The lasts day she even had to get creative since one of the dogs found a hole in the fence. She immediately let us know and did her best to block the escape route! Highly recommend Shannon!”


“Ted was incredible!! We were nervous about finding someone who could handle our 3 month old puppy’s energy level and constant need to supervise and Ted handled him better than we can! He even gave us some tips to help manage his crazy spurts and they work wonders. He provided constant updates and pictures and Mako absolutely loved him. We came home to a very happy, sleepy puppy.”


“Maddy was AMAZING! Will be booking with her again for sure!”


About: Besides having raised and cared for my own cats and dogs, I worked in a kennel for years. I walked, feed, cleaned and played with our animal guests. From bottle feedings to administering medications, there is not much that I have not experienced and enjoyed doing while engaged with my own and other people's pets. I dispense my own pet care routines in the morning, midday and evening hours daily. A client's pet care routine will be carried out according to their preference. Any reasonable special needs will be considered and can be discussed. I have two indoor adult cats in my large apartment. One is very active, curious and social and he needs playtime every day. The other one is less active, less social and aloof. Nonetheless, both kitties look forward to their brushing times every day. Once they are satisfied they go to their favorite areas to cat nap or sunbathe near the window and watch birds, squirrels and the busy waterway out back. When pet sitting in a client's home, they can expect that the same attention will be given to their pets, so please be sure to point out their favorite toys, brushes and lounging and hiding spots in the home.

About: I’ve raised my own pets since childhood. I’m experiencing with caring for 13+ dogs at a time. I currently have a 6 year old plot hound pit mix and a 2 month old kitten! :) Recently left my restaurant job of 10 years to seek alternate opportunities and I’m looking for something to keep me busy. What better way than to assist my community in caring for their pets! I would prefer to do at home visits since I currently have a 2 month old kitten and a dog. I will ensure your fur baby gets the best attention possible including walks, play time, and loads of pets.

“Susana was very responsive & it seems like her & Pancake had a great time! Would definitely book through her again, thanks Susana!”

She was very communicative and thorough throughout her visits and I felt 💯💯💯💯 that my beloved cat (male Tabby, age 4) was in great hands. I also like her energy and genuine sense of care. I will definitely be a repeat client whenever I am out of town!”


About: With 29 years of experience caring for animals, my love for pets began in childhood with cats and has grown even deeper as a devoted dog (and cat) mom for the past 10 years. I treat every fur baby as if they were my own, believing that every pet deserves kindness, patience, and genuine affection. My approach is rooted in compassion and extreme attention to detail-I notice the little things that make each animal unique and ensure their needs are always met. Whether it’s a playful kitten or a loyal pup, I create a safe, loving environment where pets feel truly cared for. Your furry family members will always be in gentle, attentive hands with me. I am currently available at your request Monday - Friday and most weekends. For any special accommodations / timing - I’m happy to make myself available! I am happy to come to your home and follow any detailed care/instructions needed for your fur babies to be happy and healthy! My philosophy is to care for your pet as you would so that you can relax and trust that they are happy in your absence :)

“Jenny was so amazing with Bella!! They instantly created a bond and I am so grateful for her sweet attentive care to my kitty! She was very punctual and took such great care of my place on every visit. I loved how much Jenny would have little conversations with Bella, because my car is a talker! Jenny went above and beyond to make sure that Bella had had adequate feeding time, play time, and gave her lots of delicious treats :) I got the cutest photos, videos and updates daily for the 2 weeks I was away. My mind was completely at ease knowing Jenny would be coming daily for Bella. I truly appreciate the animal lover that she is and I will definitely rebook her! I highly recommend Jennifer to take care of your pet while you’re away❤️”


About: I have owned dogs my whole life. Right now i own a extremely friendly cat. But I have dog care experience my whole life. Your dog will get plenty of play and exercise when they are with me. I live whiten short walking distance of two really nice parks. I am a huge animal lover so now need to worry about your pet not getting any affection from me. I have a large apartment so when your pet is inside my home it will have plenty of roaming room or plenty of carpet space for a nap. I am extremely flexible with times and dog sizes. I would love to do anything from board your dog to walking it to watching it in your home. I am a trustworthy people person. With me you will know your dog is safe and well cared for. Pet sitting fits perfectly into my weekly routine because I’ve built my schedule to be flexible and dependable. I make time each day to care for pets, whether it’s early morning check-ins, afternoon walks, or evening feedings and playtime. I prioritize reliability and punctuality, so I carefully plan my week to ensure every pet gets the attention and care they deserve. Since I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, pet sitting is more than just a job—it's something I look forward to every day. Whether I'm working part-time or around school or other responsibilities, I always make sure to maintain consistent availability and communicate clearly with pet parents to meet their needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my top priority is to maintain a safe, clean, and comforting environment that helps pets feel relaxed and secure in their familiar space. I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medication routines, walk times, play preferences, and any specific behavioral needs. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, and affection (if they want it!) while also respecting their boundaries and personalities. I keep the home tidy, clean up after the pets, and ensure food/water bowls, litter boxes, and sleeping areas are fresh and organized. I also provide regular updates and photos to keep pet parents informed and reassured. Trust and respect are important to me—not only for the pets but also for the homes I’m welcomed into. I treat every home with care and professionalism, just like I would my own. Unfortunately I can not care for pets in my own at this time because I live in a tiny studio apartment.

About: Please message me if you have any questions, or if you have more than one fur baby so I can accommodate your needs. I like to do a meet and greet first. It’s important for us all to feel comfortable, especially your VIP’s! Your fur baby/babies will be treated like a VIP’s… VERY IMPORTANT PETS! I only take in one or babies from the same home. They will be 100% my focus, as this is my main role. My whole family will give them so much LOVE!!! I am British but have lived in many places. I have lived with dogs and cats since I was born. My 1st cat lady lived until she was 17. I had a beautiful English springer spaniel, liver and white named Sonney. He was awesome. Had a gorgeous grey cat named smokey. We had a energetic cat named Ellie who we rescued from a shelter and we relocated her to Australia from the UK with us. Our most recent love was Shankly. A big beautiful black lab who we adopted in Australia at 8 weeks old.He lived 6 years in Oz, 5 years in the UK and nearly 3 years in Jersey City with us. Sadly he got diagnosed with cancer in January 2021 and we all fought so hard to save him. We sadly lost him in June 2021. He would have been 14 in September 2021. We are a family of pet lovers and happy to share our love, even if only for brief moments with your fury babies. I trained Shankly from him being 8 weeks old and did dog and animal training courses many years ago in Australia. When I was younger I worked in the RSPCA animal shelters. I truly love animals and would take care of your babies like they were my own. Shankly had health problems since he was a puppy with arthritis, so we understand how to take care of animals with medical needs and restrictions. Especially, when Shankly was sick with cancer and had his toe removed we were totally all over his medical needs. Anyway, I would be happy to meet you before hand as an introduction to see if we are all a good fit for eachother. I am a genuine pet lover with experience. I am currently a stay at home mom and love caring for dogs too. I will be able to offer a good amount of attention on your loved ones. 100% attention! We will have a lot of fun together! 🐾❤️ We moved to Fort Lauderdale in 2022.Pets would live in our home with us. I have a fully fenced yard and dog gates up around my house to keep all our visiting fur babies safe. My husband, my 2 kids, daughter is 12 and son who is 9 and me. Both my kids have grown up with a big black Labrador so they know how to act and handle pets. As previously mentioned our dog, Shankly passed in June 2021, we miss him so much but we have a lot of love to give your fur babies! All the fur babies that have stayed with us have all had a great time and we have looked after lots of repeat customers. They become part of our family🐾 We love having special friends stay and it’s even nicer when they return! 🐾 I am a mom and care for people’s fur babies too. I am able to offer lots of attention to your loved ones. Our whole family love animals and we really care for your babies like they are our own. They live inside with our family and we follow your routine. I keep to your feeding instructions and rules to the best of my ability. I want your pets to feel settled,relaxed, happy and most importantly feel loved. I love seeing happy waggy tails! Especially when our repeat customers return and they are so happy to see us all again! Your loved fur babies will be made to feel part of our family. We absolutely love animals! The whole family interact with them. My kids love playing with dogs if that is what they like. We walk them and give lots if cuddles and attention. I really look out for your animals welfare. I genuinely care for their wellbeing. I love seeing them happy. It makes me happy!

“Ivy is a animal lover to her core. I have seen her over the years care for her own fur babies. Can you say "spoiled!" I am referring her to both cat and dog owners without hesitancy. She will take the time to walk and play with any size dog. Her husky Bukus, always had the front seat sporting a fresh kerchief! Her sweet cats get the "celebrity style" treatment while being wheeled in their kitty stroller! Your pets will get the best care from Ivy, from administrating medicine to giving them extra time and cuddles!”

“Rhianna is a pet lover & it is obvious in the care she has provided for several of my pets over the years. She started as a dog walker, then began dog daycare for when we were traveling. She has cared for 2 of our dogs. They love her. Also she took care of my cat Fluffy when we were between dogs. I had tried others but my babies acted anxious when we left & way to releived when we came back. With Rhianna you would think we had been gone 1 hour instead of 2 weeks. Highly recommend Rhianna, she is loving, dependable & responsible.”

“Helen and her family recently cared for our two dogs while we took a 10 day vacation. Our dogs are our babies; have their daily routines and are quite spoiled. Cupcake and Brownie had a wonderful time with Helen. She maintained their daily routines and truly treated them as part of her family. Helen had us open a WhatsApp chat to communicate with us. We received regular updates and photos and could clearly see our pets were happy at Helen's home. We are so excited to have connected with Helen. Before the pandemic, we were frequent travelers. Our former pet sitter retired. We are looking forward to more travels knowing our pets will be safe and loved. We have already booked our next trip (and Helen!)”
