About: I haven’t killed my dog in 13years yet, won’t let your dog die on my watch. Call me the dog watcher😎 But on a serious note, I have been a dog-sitter for over 13 years. Always taking care of my friends & family furry friends. I am currently working part-time, so I have a flexible schedule that allows me to have time take care of your “fur-baby.” 😊 Communication between me & the pets owner is priority for me. I truly try to cherish every moment I get with a pet. Even small things like walking for an extra 5 minutes or even reminding them how good of a boy or girl they are is important for me.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs and trained puppies since I was little. I have continued living with roommates with dogs after moving away from home, and love helping out with watching and walking them. I wish I could have my own dog but my current circumstances would not be the best for it, so I treat every dog I interact with with the same love that I would give my own! :) I currently have a full time job and work Monday-Friday from 8am to 5pm. I can check on pets during my lunch break if you are located in Marathon. My weekends are usually free and I can come by or stay for most of the day. I can follow any directions you have for your pet! I know everyone is different, and every pet is different, so I am very flexible when it comes to care. One thing across the board is I will give your pets lots of love and attention :)
About: Had my first dog when I was 10 and fell in love instantly with pets. I took care of her for 7 years until I went off to study abroad. Friends and family have relied on me to stay with their dogs to take care, play, walk, feed and love them as much as I can. Full time job Monday-Friday from 8-5:30pm. I am open during weekends but if you are out of town and need someone to feed and walk your dog at night I can do that! Dogs tend to like me from the very first moment. I will do anything to make your dog feel comfortable and make them feel like they are with their family. Open to flexibility.
About: Working from home gives me plenty of time for cuddles, walks and belly rubs. I have raised cairn terriers my whole life but love all dogs and am happy to help out anytime! I work from home and make my own schedule, happy to help out anytime. I live in a gated community with a great outdoor space that’s perfect for long walks. My two cairn terriers are my kids. They are always by my side or on my lap. We have a basket of toys and play all the time. We also have a great lanai which is perfect for the pups to get some fresh air anytime.
“I can highly recommend Kristin! She cared for my 16 year old, deaf, blind in one eye Boston Terrier. She requires 4 sets of eye drops 3 times daily, plus oral medications. Kristin was in my home for 9 days. She communicated daily by texts with photos included. I was able to enjoy 9 days of vacation knowing my home and most importantly my fur baby was being cared for as I would. I will be using Kristin in the future and I would recommend to all my friends and family!”
About: Foster dog dad and long time board member of Marrvelous Pet Rescues (Key Largo). 25+ years of dog care experience. I will treat your furry family member as one of my own! I have lead “pack-walks”, “yappy-hours”, and training events with the rescue. I have successfully fostered and rehabbed dozens of dogs, including aggressive, and anxiety prone dogs. Comfortable with puppies-senior dogs as well as administering medications of all types. I have also completed many group and individual training courses. I have recently started working from home with an incredibly flexible schedule which allows me to be available any time day or night. Scheduled visits as well as last minute requests are easily accommodated. I care for your pet however you want! I will ensure your current schedules, routines, and training regimens are continued in your absence. From crate training to free roaming beach dogs I am flexible and comfortable with almost any request.

Laura C.
“Out of a lot of people I know, I trusted Laura with my dog’s life. She’s been there since the day I got gifted my dog and was a great help. As we got older and our lives got more busy, Laura was there to help babysit and take care of Wendy whenever I needed someone. Wendy grew fond of her and every time she came walked in, Wendy went straight to her waiting for her pets and treats. Laura was always on time, willing to walk and even run with Wendy and even asked questions to make sure Wendy got the care she needed.”

Kevin M.
“Kevin is such a great help! He is on the board at Marrvelous Pet Rescue. I’ve had him sit my foster dogs previously and there has never been an issue. He has watched each of mine with different personalities and needs, including temperament issues or medical needs. He is always willing and happy to help in any way! His communication is fantastic and I absolutely recommend leaving your fur babies with him.”
