Dog Sitting Coconut Grove

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and am a true animal lover. I grew up with both a large dog and a medium-sized dog, giving me experience with different breeds, sizes, and personalities. I’ve helped with training, daily care, exercise, feeding, and all the attention that happy, healthy pets need. I also have experience caring for senior dogs and understand the extra patience, love, and care they require. I treat every pet like my own and always strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I currently work full-time at a local restaurant, but I have a flexible schedule and live an active lifestyle. I love getting outside for walks and exercise, making it easy for me to keep pets active, engaged, and well cared for. I live in a pet-friendly area of Coconut Grove with plenty of green space, walking paths, and parks nearby, making it a great environment for dogs who enjoy spending time outdoors. Whether your pet needs a long walk, playtime, or extra attention while you’re away, I will make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I treat every pet as if they were my own and understand how important it is to have someone reliable caring for a member of your family. In my care, your pets are not just clients; they become cherished family members. Whether in your home or mine, I provide a loving and safe environment where their well-being is my top priority. With my experience and a deep passion for animals, you can trust that your furry companions will receive the utmost care, attention, and affection under my watchful eye.

About: Hi, I’m Rosa! I’m a Miami based animal lover who has grown up around dogs. My experience started with my own mixed Maltese dogs and over the years I’ve learned to read and adapt to each dog’s personality…whether they need a calm presence or a playful companion, I adjust to their needs. My experience has also extended to overnight pet sitting care for dogs. One of my most memorable moments has been being present for the birth of puppies, something that gave me a whole new appreciation for animals are at every stage of life. I offer dog walking and drop in visits for dogs of all sizes, and I genuinely enjoy every minute of it. Your pup will get attentive, loving care. I’d love to meet your dog! 🐾 I keep a structured but flexible schedule. I’m available for dog walks and drop-in visits on weekday mornings before work, evenings after 5 pm, and throughout the weekend. I keep my bookings intentional so you’ll always receive a photo update and message during every visit so you know your pet is happy and well cared for. When I’m in your home, I’ll treat it with the same care and respect I’d want for my own space. I will follow your instructions well, keep things tidy, and make sure your pet feels secure in their own space.

“Highly organized and reliable, warm and friendly Rebeca, we couldn’t be happier knowing you are looking after our cat Leonie and creating a nurturing and safe environment around her! Thank you!”

About: Hello, thank you for taking an interest in boarding your pet with me at a Dog’s Dream Vacation provided by a dog lover. I love dogs and I am a borderline dog whisperer. When your pet stays with me, they are getting a vacation of their own. When you travel or go on vacation, they get to have a getaway of their own. If using the Rover App, scroll through the top picture to see the photo gallery of dogs having fun and enjoying their vacation. If on the desktop website, click on full gallery photos. Rover is definitely better than boarding your pet at a dog hotel, especially if they are anxious pets. It is like Air BnB for your pet. : ) I live on a small peaceful lake with a big, fenced backyard. There is usually a nice breeze. I have a big open space home and a large backyard, plus a pool. Pets can go in the pool. I know golden retrievers and Labradors can’t resist, so please let me know if your dog may attempt to go in and if you prefer that they don’t. The lake is closed off, not connected to other lakes or canals (very safe) but still I do not allow pets in the lake as there is bacteria. We have a very old cat, he is 15 years old and most dogs get along with him, even if they have never been around a cat. I sadly hate to update my profile, and it took me a few months to do so because of grief. We had a cute, playful, friendly Labrador. His name was Chance and he died of a hemangiosarcoma tumor on his liver and spleen. Apparently, labs and retrievers can get this. Unfortunately, nobody knows exactly what causes hemangiosarcoma in dogs. It is one of the most studied canine cancers, but there is no single proven cause. Researchers believe it results from a combination of: genetics, age, or random DNA mutations. The last few pictures were of me and Chance having fun. Our prices are in line with the market rate (and cheaper than a dog hotel) but in my home, your dog is getting a vacation, eventually a playmate once we get another dog. I prefer dogs that are potty trained. I also prefer friendly breeds. Please bring your dog’s bed, food and 2 poop bags per day. Also bring their crate if crate trained (this is in case only if I have more than 2 dogs during busy holiday season AND only if they are used to their home crate). It also helps some dogs feel at home and have their own scent. Be sure they are bathed and clean as they tend to lay on our rugs. I prefer they do not go on furniture but it’s ok if they do (Chance used to lay on the couch all the time). I am available weekends and/or holidays. I can also provide dog walks in Brickell during the weekday. On some occasions I can do a dog visit but it depends on day and location. Please let me know if you need more information or have any questions. I work full time but work from home 2 days out of the week. I keep dogs on a feeding schedule along with back yard play time and potty time. They basically do the same routine and schedule as Chance. I have a fenced in yard and one dog to keep your fur baby happy and in good company. I can crate your dog if needed or if you prefer. Please bring their crate if crate trained and sleep or are used to going in and out of their "home'. Sometimes it helps them having their scent.

About: Raising my very own senior lady, a mid-size terrier-mix, for the last decade and counting - experienced with dogs that have separation anxiety and need a little more comfort than the rest I’m currently working full-time but located locally in the gables, so I’ll have plenty of time in the late afternoons and evenings after 6pm for walks and pups! Weekends are usually open for the mornings and afternoons, as well. I can cater to your fur baby’s daily routine, maintaining their preferred feeling schedules and walks, keeping their day structured so they don’t ever feel off and can rest knowing all is well (even with mom and dad away)!

“Isabella was excellent with the pups. Will definitely use her again and would recommend her to anyone else.”

About: I am very skilled and capable of handling any size dog. I have two large dogs of my own so I know first hand the care and attention they need. I have walked and petsitter many dogs I do not discriminate I love them all! I have a very open and flexible schedule as of now. I take college courses online, but other than that I am taking care of and walking dogs full time. I have two large dogs. I haven't had many outside dogs interact with them at home so I prefer just doing walks or petsitting at your place.

About: I grew up in France surrounded by animals including dogs, cats, horses, and even chickens, so caring for animals has always been a huge part of my life. Ever since I was little, I’ve naturally connected with animals and genuinely love being around them. Honestly, everywhere I go, you’ll probably see me petting the animals before even saying hi to the humans first. I’m 27 years old and currently have a 12 year old dog named Lilo and a 4 year old cat named Phoenix, so I understand both senior pet care and the attention pets need to feel safe and loved. I also horseback ride weekly, which means animals are truly part of my everyday life. As a nursing student, I’m responsible, patient, dependable, and attentive to details. I will always care for your pets with kindness, affection, and the same level of attention I would want for my own animals. I’m currently in nursing school, so my schedule can vary slightly throughout the week, but I always make time for animals. Pet care fits very naturally into my routine because I already care for my own pets daily and spend a lot of time around animals. I’m available for walks, drop in visits, and pet sitting, and I’m very reliable with communication, feeding schedules, medications, and giving pets lots of attention and affection. Your pet’s safety and comfort will always be my priority. I understand how important trust is when leaving your animals with someone else, and I will care for them as if they were my own. I’m very attentive to routines, feeding instructions, medications, behavior changes, and making sure pets feel calm, safe, and loved.I’m naturally patient, responsible, detail oriented, and comfortable handling different personalities, including senior or anxious pets.

About: Medication can be administered. There's a large backyard where dogs can play, walk, and play with each other. Safety and trust. I have a fenced yard with plenty of room for your pet to play. I dedicate 100% of my time to my pets. When they're in my care, I play with them and walk them. During your pet's stay in my care, we'll play games and take them for walks around my community. Most of the day they're inside the air-conditioned house. I take them out to the grass every two hours to relieve themselves. My name is Yoleida. I offer my services to care for your pets day and night, giving them walks and pet sitting at your home. I've been pet sitting for a year and I love this job, taking care of dogs and cats. I'm available every day of the week to care for your pets from my home.

“Eric took care of my shy cat Ziggy for 3 days, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience. Ziggy usually hides from new people, but he warmed up to Eric surprisingly fast and honestly, he seems even more cheerful now than when we left! Communication with Eric was seamless, and I didn’t worry for a second. I’ll definitely be hiring Eric again for my next trip. Highly recommend!”

“Sofia was a perfect sitter for my two cats Uma and Nya while we were away visiting family during Memorial Day weekend. She was prompt to show up for feedings, playtime and followed directions to the tee! Would not hesitate to ask her to care for them again! The time of her visit, and pictures gave us peace of mind during our time away!!”

About: Whether it’s a neighborhood walk or playing with a squeaky toy, I love the energy of having a furry friend around. Our family dog is getting old and having more animals in my life is just what I need🦴 I work freelance so I make my own hours! Perfect for me to fit in some care, attention, and treats for your pet❤️ (and would be a great mid-day pick-me-up) In your own home, I would be watching them closely: making sure the surrounding area is neat and comfortable for them, setting alarms for walks & meals, and always keeping a toy or two around! (And endless cuddles, of course)

“This is second time having Melanie come feed our blind boy Kodi. We highly recommend hiring her, she is wonderful with our cat, we will definitely book with her again!”

About: I’ve had dogs in my family since before I was born. I love puppies and senior dogs. I’m an animal enthusiast in general and walking dogs is a dream job! I’m currently working part time(15hrs), so I have plenty of time to walk and care for our furry friends. Typically available 4-7 days of the week. I make sure to walk, feed, play, and let the pet outside accordingly. I typically set alarms or reminders on my phone with a schedule I adhere to.( client given or make one)

About: I’m super flexible when it comes to my schedule and will make time for any family and pet, I enjoy spending time with all animals and families. I work full time however after 6pm I am available especially to house/pet sit, I’m studying for my mcat so all pets will keep me company! Breaks are important while studying , and all my attention will be one them by playing, walking them or anything special they require My youngest rescue puppy Bruno has been crate trained and his crate is his safe space. We have special fences in the house that safely lock every time and all our pets have AirTags on them to make sure they’re home safe plus we make sure all doors are properly secured anytime we leave the house.

About: I’ve loved taking care of dogs since I was a kid, and always had them around. I’ve take care of dogs ranging from 20 pounds to 60 pounds and have experience with high energy breeds. With a young energetic shepherd myself, we do a lot of off leash runs in a fenced yard, doggy parks, and beach walks. We also train for 10-15 mins everyday for mental stimulation. I spend all my free time when I’m not working with my pup and the doggos I care for. If need be I am able to administer medication to your dog. My doggy loves making new friends and we are excited to be your pups home away from home! I’m available for full time boarding on the weekends. If your pup doesn’t mind being home alone for six hours during the week I’m more than happy to have them. I usually take my pup out for free play in the mornings for about 30 minutes, I do a quick walk during lunch, and spend a two hour in the evening at my local dog park (Leo never wants to go home). I live in an apartment but have access to a yard. My puppy is currently crated when I can’t keep an eye on him and I have a spare crate if requested for your pup. My home is full of toys and treats, a puppies paradise.

About: From close friends to family, I have been entrusted to take care of their cherished dogs and cats (even seniors) through these past several years. I wouldn’t trade it for the world! I currently work full-time, but am available on weekends to provide unwavering support and love to your furry pets! I can also provide late night walks, check-ins, etc if needed during the week once I’m off work :-) I live in one of the safest neighborhoods with ample space in the backyard and around my area to give them the most fun walks possible! I can also crate your pet as I have ample space in my apartment. It’s just me, so rest assured they will be given the best care and belly rubs possible.

About: With years of experience caring for my own cats, sugar gliders, chickens, and dogs, I understand the unique needs of different pets. I offer personalized and reliable pet sitting services, ensuring your furry, feathered, or scaly friends receive the love, attention, and exercise they deserve.

I've also cared for a variety of other animals, so no matter your pet’s specific needs, I’m prepared to offer the best care while you're away. Trust me to provide a safe, comfortable, and nurturing environment for your pets! I work in the mornings from 9am-1pm, but I can be early and spend time in the afternoon. I also have weekends off to be with your furry friend I provide personalized care in both my home and yours, ensuring pets feel comfortable and loved. Services include feeding, playtime, walks, medication, and daily updates, all tailored to your pet's needs.

“Jennifer was great to work with. If you are staying at Larry and Penny Thompson campground she can take great care of your dog so you can day trip without worries. My dog was happy to see me but not upset about my extended absence, thanks to Jennifer!”
