“Jessica was flexible and responsive. I had a short notice request and she was able to accommodate. Jessica was also able to establish an immediate connection with my dog, they had never met. Thank you Jess!”
About: I have raised and taken care of dogs and cats my entire life. I have a whole life experience dog sitting, dog training, and dog walking. I have given my animals medicine and have taken care of puppies and old dogs. I handle every animal with love and care and spoil them with attention. I have also taken care of a dog for a wedding so that he could be the ring bearer! I recently moved states and I work full time. So house sitting, morning & night drop ins and morning & night walks will work best with my schedule! I have a high energy and high maintenance Australian shepherd . So I can handle big and high maintenance dogs. My own dogs are very spoiled and loved and your pets will be treated the same.

About: Hi! I’m a huge animal lover and currently have a cat of my own. I grew up around lots of dogs through friends and family and have always been very comfortable with them and around different personalities and energy levels. I am also a very active person who loves being outside, going on walks and spending time in nature - having a pet join me is just an added bonus! I’m naturally an early riser and love starting my day outside. Since I work remotely, I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time for walks, check-ins, and giving pets attention throughout the day. I think the best care comes from paying attention to each pet’s personality and needs. Every pet is different and I want them to feel safe, happy, and enjoy our time together.
“Robin was the best pet sitter I could have imagined. She helped us out of bind at the last minute and was very easy to communicate with. She made us feel very comfortable pictures and text about each visit. I highly recommend her.”
About: I’ve always been the go-to person friends and family trust with their dogs. I take pride in showing up, paying attention, and treating every pup with patience, care, and love. My goal is to make sure your dog feels comfortable, happy, and looked after — just like they would at home. I work from home, so pet care fits easily into my day. I have plenty of flexibility to take dogs on walks, play, and give them attention throughout the day. Since I’m home most of the time (and available on weekends too), I’m able to keep a consistent routine that makes pets feel comfortable and cared for. I don’t have a yard, but that just means more adventures! I take dogs out several times a day for walks, playtime, and park trips. I focus on keeping their routine consistent — feeding, play, and rest — so they feel right at home whether they’re staying with me or I’m visiting them.
About: I’m dependable for a walk, playing or, lounging around with all type of dogs and personalities! I understand how important routines are, so I’m happy to follow your pet’s schedule and any specific instructions you have. I have 4 free days to care for your pet in any way! I am flexible to stay on a potty schedule, take longs walks, or run around in the yard. He or she will be my best bud! You can count on me for reliable communication and updates, so you always know your pet is in good hands. I love caring for dogs in their own home where they feel happiest, sticking closely to their routine for walks, meals, playtime, and cuddles while giving them lots of attention and keeping them safe and comfortable. If medication is required you can count on me to safely administer it! I believe in leaving a home better than I found it.

“Thanks so much for taking care of my Sunny on short notice! I hope you enjoyed your time together. Arrived promptly both days, walked him and checked food/water.”
About: What sets me apart is the level of personal attention and calm, consistent care I give to each pet. I treat every animal like my own, making sure they feel safe, loved and comfortable in their routine. I am reliable and truly passionate about creating a stress free experience for both vets and their owners. Pet care first perfectly into my daily routine because I am a full time mom ( grown kids) and home full time. This allows me to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day.

I highly recommend Aaron for anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog walker or pet sitter. They took wonderful care of my dog while I was on vacation, and I had complete peace of mind knowing my dog was in such good hands. They were always punctual, attentive, and incredibly loving. It was clear that they genuinely care about animals, and my dog was happy, comfortable, and well cared for when I returned. Their professionalism and kindness truly stood out. I would absolutely trust them again and recommend them to anyone looking for exceptional care for their pet.
Margaret has been great with our dog Leo on regular walks, she has been very communicative and on top of things. She had to cancel once last minute due to illness, but communicated as soon as she knew and it hasn’t happened since then. Leo loves her and she takes care to ensure he is happy and healthy!
Absolutely love Jessica! I highly recommend to anyone in the Fort Lauderdale area looking for a loving family to care for their pets. Her and her daughter are fantastic with animals, and were gentle and kind towards my Macimus. I will definitely be using her again and recommend to everyone!
