“This was our second time booking Teffni, and once again, she was absolutely fantastic! We have three cats and Teffni is so patient and attentive with each of their personalities. She also carefully managed their different food routines. We loved getting regular updates and photos during each visit. We came home to three content, well-cared-for cats. We’ll definitely continue booking with Teffni! Highly recommend!”


“Xan is great! She is so caring and professional. We have a super anxious and spicy kitty and she was able to help him be brave and not hide from her in just a couple of days! We have already booked her again and will continue to do so!”


“This was the first time I used Rover and someone I did not know to take care of my dog. Sydni did more than take care of my pup, she took care of my worries. She was so thoughtful in the texts. Matrix was beyond happy. I would use her anytime. It was easy to meet with her, and she kept me updated twice a day on how he was. She cut the walks short if it was too hot outside, considered how he might react with the fireworks, just incredibly caring.”



“We love having Hannah take care of our kitties. She's follows our care instructions and is very sweet to them. She sends lots of photos and detailed updates. It is reassuring to know they are well taken care of and their personalities shine through her descriptions. We love to read them throughout our trips. At the end our latest trip our diabetic cat started exhibiting symptoms of illness. Hannah updated us right away. She kept in contact as we cut our trip short to head home. We were able to get him emergency care that he needed. I'm grateful we had her in this situation! I highly recommend her to care for your pets. Thanks Hannah!”


“Matilda did a great job checking in on my dog. I love that she initiated a pre-walk-through to make sure that she had a good understanding of what to do. She sent pictures and detailed updates which I really appreciate it.”


About: I have years of experience walking, feeding, and taking care of dogs, even puppies! My priority is to keep your fur babies safe and happy I have open availability. I am a college student that is home for the summer, meaning I am available any time of day, everyday, even on weekends. I will care for your pet, however I am told to do so. I will make sure fences and crates are used if told to do so. I just want your pet to be happy and safe.

“I feel like I left a review already but I don't see it so maybe I'm crazy. Anyway I have Samantha booked weekly to take my dog out. She is reliable and quick to respond, and very flexible, and great with my weird finicky dog.”


“Randi is the absolute best and we will always come back to book her! She was extremely patient with my 3 big dogs and was respectful of their individual needs. We are so grateful to have her as a part our lives!!”


“This was our first time with Catherine and everything went perfectly. She uploaded plenty of pictures of the pets so we could see how they were doing, which we appreciated. She handled our two insanely food motivated cats and our geriatric rabbit well! I'd absolutely recommend her as a sitter.”


“Cedric was amazing. He showed up on time, communicated effectively, and loved on my cat Nina. I enjoyed all the updates, pics, and the personal touches :) I would highly recommend and look forward to working with him again.”


“We have a new 7 month old pup that has a lot of fear and anxiety. Jasmine was very kind and patient with her. She will be our go-to when we need drop ins. Thanks Jasmine!”


About: Hi, my name is Mariia-Yelyzaveta! A year and a half ago, I came here because of the war in Ukraine. Now I work to help my family and country and I would also like to have an additional income from something that brings me pleasure. I love animals very much and I myself have a dog Yoshi, which I brought with me. For me, a pet is a younger member of the family that needs to be cared for and enveloped in love. For us, they are just a part of life, but for them, we are their whole life. So our task is to do everything to make this life happy with us. And I'm ready to devote my time to it when you don't have enough of your own! I work on weekends, but I am happy to give my free time from Monday to Thursday. Also, I can take your pets to my house any day of the week and take care of them together with my girlfriend who is always at home and also has experience in taking care of dogs and cats. I have a small dog who is 14 years old, she is calm and well-behaved, but quite playful for her age, so she can be a good company for dogs, and also safe for cats because they are not very interesting to her and she does not react to them. Also, near our house, there are many areas where you can run on the grass, as well as a dog area where you can train them! I am a bit of a worried mother for my dog, so I will take care of your pet as carefully as my own and I’m gonna keep a close eye on it!

About: I have always had dogs and know what it takes to care for them. As a recently retired D1 track and field runner, I am physically fit, strong, and capable to handle dogs of any size. I would love to take your dog out on a run! I am young, engaging, well organized, timely, and always will lead pets with empathy. My care for pets has ranged from puppies to old dogs. ,I do, however, have more experience with elderly dogs. I have provided care from simple pill feedings to care for dogs post surgeries and provided insulin injections. I know what it takes to not only care for a pet, but love them as well. I would live to provide your pet with the love all pets deserve and provide each owner with the peace of mind that I will do my best for each pet. I recently graduated from graduate school and have the summer months to dedicate to things I enjoy before my post-graduation academic endeavors begin in August. At this time, I am pretty much completely free in my days to spend time with my own pets. Growing up, I had two dogs that both grew to be the age of 16. I would always play, feed, treat, and bathe my two dogs. My current schedule can be filled with pet care as my current pets are two cats who don’t need too much care! I wish to fill my days with providing quality pet care support! My first step in providing the best care for pets is being prepared. As a dog walker, I have a map with designated trails that I know I can take dogs on that are from busy streets and people. Additionally, when providing walks away from my trails, I have some techniques that will allow me to be safe and go on walks places that are pet friendly, such as near parks and residential areas. In addition to area awareness, I always make sure I have poop bags, treats, water, and paw wipes for the pets. This ensure that all the needs of the pets can be taken care of. I also live a good set of guidelines and rules. All the provided rules for each individual pet will be followed as exactly as I can.

“Connie is wonderful! Both of my cats have wildly different personalities and she was able to deal with both beautifully. One of my cats never warmed up to her but, Connie never pushed it, and the other twice daily petting sessions after each mealtime. Connie definitely knows how to deal with each pet as they come. Our older cat also gets once daily injections for diabetes which is the main reason we chose Connie. Having dealt with diabetic animals in the past, she also knows the signs to watch out for when pets starts to feel unwell which was a huge load off of our minds while we were on vacation. Not to mention, one of our cats also got outside the night before we left and eventually ended up at the vet's office and Connie was able to administer oral medication, too. Truly an amazing pet sitter and so much more!”


“Ashley was fantastic! We were in a pinch when our usual cat sitter fell through a day before our overseas trip, and Ashley came over for a meet and greet that evening and then stopped by to look after our kitten twice a day while we were gone. She was very flexible when we needed to change the timing a couple times. And she drew our shy kitten out of his shell by playing with him. We will definitely hire Ashley again the next time we need someone to look after our cat.”


“Sara went above and beyond to look after my two rabbits and kitty for nearly two weeks! While travelling, I knew I could count on her to provide me with thorough updates and take excellent care of the critters. I’m so grateful for the level of care she provided while I was away, and would rebook with her in a heartbeat.”



About: Hello and welcome! I am a dog lover and care provider. In my home, each pup is well treated with lots of attention and affection. I have been caring for dogs for over 15 years and love small breeds! I have a unique ability to get along with, and care for many different dog types and personalities. I show the utmost respect and care for your dog, as if he or she was a member of my family. I have worked with dogs for over 15 years, and have owned small dogs all of my life. I keep dog parents in the loop, and will send pictures and texts throughout the dog's stay, to keep your mind at ease. During each Vacay day your pup will enjoy a lot of undivided attention, with walks around the lake, or a short trip to the Boca Raton dog park. I supervise all dogs myself. I always plan my schedule around my guests' stay. If you know that your dog feels has a bit of anxiety, and may display destructive behavior when left home alone, please let me know. I strictly follow your requests about your dog's eating schedule and playing preferences. My job is to make the stay of your pet comfortable and convenient for you! That is why it is important that you communicate openly about any needs or quirks of your pup. I kindly request for all dogs to be on flea/heartworm prevention and be up to date with vaccines for their best health, as well as for my dogs. My priority is the health and safety of all guests. Please feel free to contact me about special quotes for long stays and multiple dogs. Request a Meet and Greet, and allow me to introduce myself and my Yorkie, King. We look forward to meeting you and would love to have you stay!

About: Attention all dog lovers! 🐾 We offer specialized services for your furry friend: 🐕 **Walks**: Enjoy exciting and safe strolls to keep your dog active and happy. 🏠 **Boarding**: We provide a temporary home full of care and attention, so your dog feels at home while you're away. 👂 **Sitting**: Personalized and loving care to ensure your dog receives the best companionship in your absence. Contact us for more information and ensure the best care for your four-legged friend! 🐶✨ #DogCare #DogWalks #BoardingAndSitting As a pet sitter, dog care is an integral part of my daily and weekly routine. I establish a flexible schedule that allows me to provide constant and quality care to the dogs in my charge. Here's an example of how pet care fits into my routine: In my daily routine: In the mornings, I start early to visit the dogs in my care. This includes feeding them, changing their water, and providing individualized care based on their needs. Then I make sure to take brisk and stimulating walks so the dogs can exercise and socialize with other dogs, if appropriate and agreed with the owners. During the day, I am attentive to the needs of the dogs in terms of food, hygiene and recreation. I make sure they are comfortable and happy, giving them the attention and love they deserve. I am also available to attend to any special requirements that may arise, such as administering medications or providing additional care to dogs that need it. In my weekly routine: I spend extra time organizing and coordinating appointments and walks with dog owners, making sure we are in sync and every need is taken care of. I also take advantage of this time to keep myself updated on the latest techniques and knowledge in pet care, attending related courses or workshops. I dedicate myself to planning special walks and activities, such as visits to dog parks or additional training sessions, to provide them with enriching experiences. In short, pet care is an integral part of my daily and weekly life. I am committed to providing quality care and ensuring that the dogs in my care receive the love, attention and care they need at all times. In my home, I prioritize the safety and comfort of pets. I have a designated space for them, with safe, non-hazardous areas that they can access. In addition, I maintain constant supervision and avoid leaving potentially dangerous objects or products within the reach of the animals. I also make sure they have access to fresh water, appropriate toys, and a comfortable place to rest. In my clients' homes, I take the time to familiarize myself with the surroundings and create a safe environment for pets. I verify that the doors, windows and fences are in good condition and well closed, thus avoiding any possibility of escape or accident. In addition, I make sure to follow the routines established by the owners so that the pets feel calm and comfortable in their own environment. Trust is essential in my pet care. I always make sure to establish open and constant communication with the owners. I send them regular updates on the well-being of their pets, photos and videos so they can rest assured that they are in good hands. I am also available to answer any questions or concerns you may have at any time. When it comes to the environment, I always take care to minimize my environmental impact while caring for pets. I use biodegradable bags to collect waste during walks and I try to use safe and environmentally friendly cleaning products. In addition, I encourage the use of sustainable toys and accessories, such as recycled or natural materials. In the home of my clients, I make sure to respect and maintain the established cleanliness and order. I always leave spaces as I found them and avoid causing any kind of damage. Also, if there are specific areas in the home that require special care for the pet, such as carpets or furniture, I follow the instructions and recommendations of the owners to keep those spaces clean and protected. In general, both in my home and in that of my clients, my approach is focused on safety, trust and respect towards pets, providing them with a caring and pleasant environment where they can feel protected and happy.
