“When I got home, Cupid was sleeping so hard he didn't notice me. I can count on one hand how many times that happened! Thats good that he didn't cate, means he was relaxed while I was away. Super Grateful that both Sally and Izzy shared their beds and crates because my dogs are clueless to boundaries. Daily updates kept me at ease too! Thanks again!”



“Linus was thrilled to stay with Melissa and Harlee! He made new friends, who I got to "meet" via photos every day, and he had a great time overall. I would send him over to stay again and again.”



“Victoria was great with our dog Lincoln. She took care of him and was very responsive before and during the stay. We very much appreciate having someone to trust our pet with while visiting Key West.”


“Courtney is absolutely wonderful. Our Italian Greyhound loved being with her. One of the pictures she sent has him full on giving hugs and kisses around her neck! We did not worry about “Ozzy” a single minute. He was better than right at home!”


“Vicmarie was by far the best dog sitter! She took Ellie to the park multiple times during her stay, kept me updated with lots of pictures, and had great communication throughout Ellie’s whole stay! She accepted my request very last minute and even let me extend Ellie’s stay a couple days! I highly recommend Vicmarie for taking great care of your pet!”


“Betsy was so kind and accommodating. She had short notice of our needs, but she was very communicative and willing to help. She was EXTREMELY sweet with our dog. We received updates and pics as well. We will definitely look to Betsy when we return to Key West!!!”

I’m very pleased with the service and would absolutely recommend Christy to anyone looking for a kind and reliable pet sitter!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and have had dogs ever since I was little. They are apart of the family and will always treat them like my own I’m currently in nursing school, my schedule is pretty flexible, will only be in school 2 days a week. And am free especially on the weekends. I have a crate at home if needed, and love taking pups on walks. I am flexible with working with people based on their pets needs

About: I have raised puppies and kittens, handled horses, and been a pet sitter for over 7 years now. I have administered medication and keep pets on their potty and feeding schedules. I work mostly from home. I am able to come walk/feed/play with your animals during my lunch hour, I take my own dog out every 1-2 hours and my employer is very kind and would always allow me to leave in an emergency. I believe in fun play time, and long walks and am able to abide by any schedule the owners would like to keep for their pets.


“Our family was going on the Dry Tortugas National Park day excursion. I needed a sitter last minute (local dog-sitting place was not able to accept early drop off). She was sweet and my puppy enjoyed her first stay apart from us. Thank you!”


About: I have cared for pets for as long as I can remember and have always had a loved dog in the house. I also grew up on a farm from around 13 to 18, caring for barn cats, horses, donkeys, chickens, geese, and dogs. My life has always been centered around animals, and even when I went to university, I focused on animal care, attaining an Animal Studies major. I truly have a passion for animals, and would say they have always been a major part of my life. I am currently an intern for Coral Restoration Foundation, so my schedule changes weekly. I am extremely passionate about nature and animals, and I moved to Key Largo with my two babies. I am able to take care of your loved pets either before or after my shifts or on my days off! I have two of my own pups, 5-year-old Corgi and a 10-month-old Cocker Spaniel, who have a big yard to play in. They love to go on walks and car rides with me and are crate-trained. My place is typically in a state of a "puppy playpen" due to their scattered toys. My pups are almost always included in my outting if they can come and are huge part of my day to day life.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 10. I’ve had farm animals. I’ve bottle raised animals. I’ve taken care of kittens and bottle fed them. I am a dog lover and passionate for animals. I have a fenced in yard. I’m home all day. I am currently not employed and have more time on my hands for Dog Sitting. I’m a part-time substitute Teacher. I am reliable and will do my best to accommodate pet owners than need pet sitting. I have a fenced in yard with two friendly dogs that are best friends. I will also go to clients homes and walk their dogs and feed them. I do not do overnight dog or cat sitting at another home.
