Pet Sitting Galt Mile

About: I work in a Veterinary office & Paw Spa in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. I am also a dog photographer! I am surrounded by dogs & cats daily and the care that they need will absolutely be my top priority! For 18 years + I have taken care of dogs that need special diets, medications, insulin and eye drops from cataract surgery. My two Cavaliers are Elliott & Walter, they are my family & they also want my attention 24/7! I know how a pet feels when they are not with “their person”… they need to feel comforted & loved. So I talk to them, cuddle them, play, praise them, they get hugs & kisses! I do the same at work, and try to make all dogs checking in feel comfortable, so that they are not nervous while they are getting groomed. *I can also bathe, fluff, nail dremel, shave paw pads, clean ears & do a sanitary trim for an additional $35. My favorite is taking pictures of your pets, I’m happy to send videos and photos daily so that you can see how much fun your pet is having while you relax while you’re away! Your dog should be neutered/spayed, unless a puppy 🐶 be socialized and able to be around others without aggression. Also be friendly with cats 🐈, I have 2! Only “Socialized non-aggressive dogs 20lbs or less”, no pit bulls. Please have pictures and details about your pet on your Rover profile. My employment allows me to come home during my lunch hour to spend time with my dogs, feed them and let them out and play. I am available for small dogs to board in my home. I do have two kitties 🐈‍⬛ and would want to make sure your dog 🐕 is friendly around felines. I am off work for the weekends. If you prefer your pet stay at their own home, I can do drop- in visits for 30 minutes or 60 minutes. I am privately insured with Pet Care Insurance to care for your pet in my home, or yours. *Please make sure if your pets are staying at my home, that they are caught up on their current vaccinations and flea medication’s. Have you ever taken your dog to a doggy daycare & observed that they are friendly with dogs? That’s the kind of dog that would blend in best with my environment here with my two cavaliers, and I also have 2 cats. I would not take on more than two dogs at a time, so that I can give them enough attention. I have a large fenced in yard where I take my dogs outside to safely play! I also have a smaller fenced in side yard/patio off of my kitchen. I would like to do a meet and greet prior, either at my house or in my yard. I want to make sure everyone is “social & comfortable”. All dogs should be neutered or spayed, except for puppies under 8 months old. 🐶 If your dog has a favorite bed or blanket or toys, please pack those for their pup-vacation!

“Caring, responsible, punctual. Thank you Jennifer for the care you gave to my furry babies. Take care.”

About: I've always had a deep connection with dogs. I bring a very calming canine energy, and trust is gained quickly. Anyone who has a dog(s) and knows me well will ask me to sit for them when they can't provide the care their dogs need. When I retired from my successful 45 year sales career, I had planned on getting a dog. As it's turned out, my friends and neighbors with dogs have kept me very busy. And it's been the most fulfilling and gratifying chapter of my life. I just have an innate ability to connect with dogs and what I give to them, they give back to me. It's been a very rewarding time in my life now that I get to do what I love best: to be surrounded with canine company. And I can unequivocally and honestly say I'm very good at it. As I said, I'm retired and can easily accommodate the needs of prospective clients. I'm readily available and am very flexible with you and your dog's schedules. I live in my recently renovated condo in the very upscale community of Coral Ridge in Fort Lauderdale. It's a small two-story residence easily accessible to lush parks and magnificent estate homes. We have excellent security with a Neighborhood Watch and private 24 hour Coral Ridge Patrols. Patrolling

“Aaron is AWESOME! He came and helped me out big time when I had a sudden emergency stay at the hospital. He went above and beyond with my dog Tank. He took great of him in my absence and I can’t be more appreciative. Truly 5 star!💯”

“Luzmar did a great job and followed all instructions for what my cat required. She is very attentive to details and goes above and beyond. Definitely will re-book with her again, the communication was on point, easy, and responds within a reasonable fashion.”

About: Loving, Reliable Care for Your Pup — Now With More Time to Give! Hi there! I’ve been on Rover since 2023, and now that I’m semi-retired, I’m excited to dedicate even more of my time to caring for dogs. Spending my days with pups is one of my greatest joys — whether it’s playtime, walks, cuddles, or just keeping them company. I share my home with my friendly dog, Kyle, who loves meeting new furry friends. I’m patient, attentive, and truly love getting to know each dog’s unique personality and needs. Your pup will be treated like family here! Whether you need drop-ins, walks, or overnight care, I’m here to help and make sure your dog feels safe, happy, and loved. I look forward to meeting you and your four-legged baby. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. Since I’m semi-retired, I have plenty of flexibility and time to dedicate to each dog I care for. My day usually includes morning and evening walks, regular playtime, and lots of attention and affection throughout the day. I also build in time for feeding, potty breaks, and any special routines or instructions a pet may have. Because I already care for my own dog, Kyle, I’m used to maintaining a consistent, calm, and pet-friendly environment. Adding another pup into the routine feels seamless — I truly enjoy it, and I make sure each dog gets the care and engagement needed. When caring for pets in my home, I focus on creating a safe, comfortable, and relaxed environment. I follow each pet’s usual routine as closely as possible — from feeding times and walks to playtime and rest. My dog, Kyle, is friendly and enjoys having company, so visiting pups always have a companion. I supervise all interactions, provide plenty of affection, and make sure each dog has their own space if they need quiet time. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and follow all instructions carefully. I maintain the pet’s familiar routine, whether that involves walks, meals, medications, or special habits. I give them lots of attention, keep their environment tidy, and send regular updates so owners feel connected and reassured. No matter the service, my goal is always the same: to make every pet feel safe, happy, and well-loved. 🐾

“Alex did an amazing job with my two cats! She sent thoughtful daily updates with lots of photos, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. She kept the litter box clean, made sure they always had fresh food and water, and clearly took great care of them. I came home to happy, well cared for cats and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend!”

“Reebah took wonderful care of my cat, Garfield. She followed all of my instructions carefully, including giving his medications and his food, and she provided timely updates throughout her visits. I felt completely at ease knowing Garfield was in such good hands. I would definitely recommend Reebah to anyone looking for someone caring, responsible, and trustworthy to look after their pets!”

“Marianne was a great sitter! Communication was a breeze and ever so accommodating. I had a few modification with my reservation and she always adjusted easily and worked with my changes. My pets loved her! I got plenty of updates, pictures and videos during her drop in visits. I will definitely use again and recommend.”

“Daniela is wonderful. Very friendly, reliable., and always on time. We enjoyed updated photos throughout the day of our big boy Wyatt. Highly recommend Daniela. Will definitely use her again.”

“Kristina was willing to provide extra effort during the time we were away. My wife, I, and our cats appreciated her helpfulness while our condo contractors had an unexpected schedule change impacting our unit. We will certainly contact her again when we travel next.”

“Sandy was amazing! When I first contacted her, I needed a last minute sitter. I had never used a sitter or Rover before. She responded promptly and offered to do a meet & greet, working with my schedule before I left town. For each check-in, she provided detailed reports and pictures of each of our kitties. She went above and beyond when one of our cats had to be picked up from our nearby vet. I felt so much better on vacation knowing our kitties were in amazing hands. We will absolutely use her services again!”

Kiara K.

“Jenny was so amazing with Bella!! They instantly created a bond and I am so grateful for her sweet attentive care to my kitty! She was very punctual and took such great care of my place on every visit. I loved how much Jenny would have little conversations with Bella, because my car is a talker! Jenny went above and beyond to make sure that Bella had had adequate feeding time, play time, and gave her lots of delicious treats :) I got the cutest photos, videos and updates daily for the 2 weeks I was away. My mind was completely at ease knowing Jenny would be coming daily for Bella. I truly appreciate the animal lover that she is and I will definitely rebook her! I highly recommend Jennifer to take care of your pet while you’re away❤️”

About: I have over 20 years of experience caring for dogs of all ages, breeds, and personalities. I’ve cared for shy pups who need extra time and patience to warm up, energetic dogs who thrive on walks and play, and senior dogs who need gentle, attentive support. I have a special place in my heart for pets with unique needs. My beloved pug, Maggie, developed diabetes later in life and required insulin, along with extra care and support after becoming blind and deaf. That experience taught me the importance of patience, compassion, and paying close attention to the little things that help pets feel safe and comfortable. Whether your pup needs an energetic walk, some extra playtime, medication support, or simply a calm and caring companion while you’re away, I take pride in providing personalized care and treating every dog like they’re part of my own family. After years of caring for my own pet and helping friends and family with theirs, I’m excited to now offer my experience and love for dogs through Rover. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I schedule my day to ensure each visit receives my full attention. I plan dedicated time for drop-in visits throughout the day and prioritize punctuality, consistency, and clear communication so your pet’s routine stays as normal as possible. I treat every home and pet with the same care and respect I would my own. I follow your detailed instructions closely to keep your pet’s routine consistent, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise, and any special needs. I aim to create a calm, reassuring experience while you’re away and maintain a clean, secure environment before leaving. You’ll receive timely updates and photos after each visit for complete peace of mind.

About: I have taken care of friends and families fur babies my whole entire life. I’ve always had dogs growing up. We had a few other types of pets like birds, crabs, fish, geckos, chinchillas and also have been around friends and families different types of pets. I have my own fur baby. Even though I do not do overnights I always treat anybody’s little angel that I’m caring for like my own. I will go above and beyond and make sure that you’re a little baby is well taken care of exactly the way you want because my fur baby is my world. I am well accustomed to medical care that senior dogs may require. My family has a 15 year-old Yorkie Shih Tzu who requires medication. I’ve trained my own to the point that he passed his public access test for service animal. I will spam you with pictures and videos of your loved one. I record everything for you as I do for my friends and family. I am a student and I do also work. There are several days throughout the week that I do have some free time to be able to assist in the care of other sweet little babies that may need some help making sure they are ok until you come home. I will be the only one providing care I do not, and will not care for dogs in my own home. I will go to you and your home as it just does not work for my household and also my own baby. I follow a very strict routine with my own boy so any care taking is scheduled around the schedule I have with my boy. I follow whatever instructions are needed for the care of your furry family member so the type of care that I provide depends on what you need. As I stated previously i will be the only caregiver and I will spam you with all the pictures and videos you want of your beloved baby. I do the same for friends and family. It’s good to be reassured that they are ok and I want to help provide that.

“Shelby was awesome! She kept us updated throughout our trip to help keep peace of mind. Frankie loved the extra attention given, will most definitely be contacting her again for any upcoming travel. Thanks again!”
