About: Florida native with 10+ years of serious animal care experience! For the past two years I’ve been working full-time as a professional house manager across California and Florida, caring for beloved animals and homes with the same reverence I bring to everything I do. My experience spans dogs, cats, horses, farm animals, birds of prey, aquatic life, and pets of elder years and/or recovering from surgery. I approach every home as a living ecosystem and every animal as a member of the family! I’m Forbes trained in hospitality and take what I do seriously, while also with great care and joy. I’m now expanding into Rover and carry an extensive and glowing 5 star testimonial record from two years of full-time sits. I’m based right here in Brickell with my own transportation and a completely open schedule. I’m available truly any time: early mornings, midday, evenings, and nights. I’m punctual and quite reliable ;) I care for animals in their own home/neighborhood, on their own terms. Their environment, their routine, their comfort, that’s the baseline. Bespoke only. I’m attentive to detail, security-conscious, and I communicate with owners proactively. Two years of full-time housesitting across California and Florida has made me someone my families trust completely with their most precious things.
“Very transparent, communicative, responsible, punctual and sweet with the dogs. Very helpful with helping with dog meds, treats and water supply. Will definitely schedule with her again.”
About: I studied vet med at Iowa State University and have vast experience working at animal shelters. I’ve been trained in pet care, doggy heimlichs and administration of medications. Grew UP with dogs all my life, my mini schnauzer in PR has epilepsy and I know that making sure shes in good hands is always top priority. Your dog(s) will be treated like my own when with me. I’m currently working from home with flexible hours. I’m able to walk your dog(s) as many times as needed throughout the day and whatever distance needed. Theres a beautiful park by where I live that has a fenced in yard that I can also take them to play in, if agreed upon (and if your dog is not reactive since this is a public park and i want to ensure their safety). During their stay your pet(s) will be allowed in the living room and bedroom of the apartment. They can sleep on or off my bed or couch, whatever they feel the most comfortable in. And if they need extra care or attention to ease any separation anxiety or stress I’ll be there. You will be receiving as many pictures, videos or updates as you would like. If I’m walking your dog they will always be on leash and completely supervised.

As always Pam goes above and beyond! I was stuck at work and Pam was swift to take my dog for a walk. She sent tons of updates and she’s always super flexible and accommodating. I don’t trust anyone else with my 16 year old poodle, Pam is the best, she’s so responsible and Bu loves her! Thank you Pam!!!
Great experience! August had a 30-minute walk and came back happy, relaxed, and well exercised. Communication was excellent, and it was clear he was cared for with attention and kindness. I appreciated the reliability, professionalism, and genuine love for animals. It gives me peace of mind knowing August is in such good hands. Highly recommend and will definitely book again! 🐾🐕
Viktoriia has been absolutely phenomenal with my dog. She goes far above and beyond what I would expect from a standard dog walk. She takes the time to really care for him, make sure he gets great exercise, and has even helped him become more comfortable and socialized around other dogs, including her own dog. Her communication is excellent! She keeps me updated, is reliable, thoughtful, and clearly treats my dog like he matters. I can tell she genuinely cares and puts real effort into making each visit a positive experience. It gives me so much peace of mind knowing he is in such good hands. I could not recommend Viktoriia more highly. She is kind, responsible, attentive, and truly exceptional at what she does.
Great experience! My dog was well cared for, happy, and comfortable throughout the visit. Communication was excellent, with updates and photos that gave me peace of mind while I was away. It’s clear they genuinely care about animals and take the time to make sure pets feel safe and loved. I would absolutely book with them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy dog walker or pet sitter
Astrid was prompt every day for the 1.5 weeks we were on vacation. She walked our Dachshund and French Bulldog midday and spent quality time with them. Astrid instantly established trust and a relationship with our dogs. We felt very comfortable with Astrid in our home and with our beloved dogs.
Scott loves my dog and my dog loves Scott. He takes the time to write really thoughtful entertaining descriptions about their walk and he takes even better photos. He could be an author, a photographer and an animal expert. I feel good leaving for work knowing that my dog is going to hang with Scott for a bit. He’s the best in the biz.
Natalia is my go-to dog walker in Miami (Downtown/Edgewater/Wynwood). She’s so flexible with her schedule, she can either come pick my baby, April Maria up or I can drop her off at her house. She’s super loving. Very quickly she endeared herself to April and April ran over 2 miles with her. I don’t trust my pup to just anyone, but I’m fully confident in Natalia‘s abilities and her love for all animals. I will definitely be booking her again. I know April loves her already.
