“Tich was excellent! She took excellent care of my two Boston terriers for 2 weeks. They were walked multiple times a day and received lots of love and attention. I would definitely recommend Tich for animal sitting/boarding. She is a wonderful human and I felt full confidence from her that my pets were being cared for properly while I was out of Country on a business trip.”

“Pugsley had so much fun! I could tell he was having a really good time! I would definitely recommend Jessica and will definitely be a return customer! Thank you so much!”

About: Hi there! I’m ready to be a second home for your furry baby while you’re away. I grew up in a house where we always had dogs and cats, so caring for animals has always been a natural and joyful part of my life. My friends and family often ask me to look after their pets when they travel, and I always do it with love and attention. I currently spend most of my time at home, which means I can give your pet all the care and affection they need. I live in a cozy apartment in a lovely neighborhood with great walking areas nearby, and there’s also a private pet area right on the property. I truly enjoy spending time with animals going for walks, playing, cuddling, or simply keeping them company and making them feel calm and happy. I pay close attention to your pet’s safety both at home and during walks, and I always stay tuned to their mood and behavior. Before our first meeting, I like to learn about your pet’s habits, preferences, personality, and any medications they might need to make sure everything feels comfortable and familiar for them. Your little one will feel safe, loved, and cared for just like at home. I’m currently home most of the time, so I’ll be able to give your furry little one all the care, love, and attention they need. I’m available every day and always delighted to welcome your sweet little friend into my loving, caring hands.” I live in a safe, quiet neighborhood with great walking areas. My building also has a fenced private dog run, providing a secure and comfortable space for your pup. I offer responsible, attentive care for every dog, following their routine for walks, feeding, and rest, and administering medication if needed. Your dog will enjoy a clean, calm home environment and reliable, dedicated care
“Elizabeth was very flexible with scheduling and keeping my Portie for a late pickup at 11:00 pm. She texted photos and videos everyday which was reassuring that all was going well. I will definite hope to use her again next time I need a pet sitter. Than you, Elizabeth.”

“Kelly is amazing!! She was very careful to make sure she understood our dog and her specific routine. Our dog had such a great time and really enjoyed playing and hanging out with Kelly’s dog. We have already booked again for an upcoming trip. We highly recommend Kelly!!”

“Juan Pablo provided an amazing environment for my timid pup! He sent frequent updates and pictures and I felt comfortable knowing my dog was safe and well cared for. Would highly recommend and will definitely be booking with him again!”

“Camilla was amazing with my dog Bailey! She sent me the cutest photos so I could see how well she was doing. When my business trip got extended, Camilla was super flexible and allowed me to extend the booking two additional days. She was literally a lifesaver!! Look forward to booking with Camilla again in the future!!”

“Raquel is absolutely the best. She truly is a blessing to have in our community! I cannot express how much comfort I feel leaving my pup with her, my usual (helicopter mom) anxiety goes away when Raquel can watch my dog. The photos and videos daily are the best. I know Riley is having the best vacation too :)”

“Johanne watched my puppy while I was away, she is the best!! Kept me updated and sent lots of photos and videos. Her puppy is very friendly and loved to play with mine. If you’re looking for someone you can trust to leave your puppy with, I highly recommend Johanne!”
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, socialized and able to be around others without aggression. Also be friendly with cats 🐈, I have 2! Only “Socialized non-aggressive dogs 25 lbs or less”, no pit bulls. 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!
“Laura did an amazing job with our dog Aspen! She kept us updated with photos and videos and made her home his home for the visit! I would recommend her for your pets also!!”

“Jaroslava was amazing with our Charlie!! She sent multiple pictures a day and kept us up to date, since it was our fist time using Rover and we were a bit nervous. I loved that Charlie had a big yard to run around in ❤️ we had the best experience and she was so accommodating. We will definitely go back!”

“Fantastic dog watcher! Jose sent us pictures the whole time of all the fun things he did with our doggy Luna while watching her. Fantastic communication from Jose and was able to accommodate a last minute pickup time change. Thanks Jose!”

About: Do you love spoiling your furbaby? If so, look no further! We are a family of dog lovers who love nothing more than treating your dog like family. As the former owners of a precious, gentle, and spoiled boxer who lived to the ripe old age of 12.5, our kids ask almost every day for us to adopt another dog. While we aren't quite ready to own another one just yet, we love keeping our doors wide open to care for dogs and are looking to meet a few new fur friends! In addition to having owned a dog, we have experience caring for other people's dogs off and on for the past fourteen years. Our children (aged 6 and 8) have been raised to both love and respect dogs, and love to play, cuddle, and care for dogs without overwhelming them and making sure their needs are met. Take a look at the pictures to see them in action! We know that every dog has different needs, and we are sensitive to them. We have a wonderfully walkable neighborhood, a five-foot-high concrete fenced in backyard, and plenty of hands ready to pet and play. We allow dogs on our furniture and our bed if that's what your doggo needs! When caring for an animal, we try to cater to their needs as much as possible. We are happy to keep your dog on their routine at home, and also enjoy bringing them into our routines as they would like. One of our humans works from home full-time, and the other part-time, and the two little humans are both in elementary school. As such, there's typically always a human at home to tend to your animal's needs. We have a very dog friendly home, with tile floors throughout and a fully fenced in backyard. We have a very walkable neighborhood and working from home, we believe in plenty of walks if that is what your dog enjoys. If your dog loves car rides, we are happy for them to join us in dropping off and picking up our kids from school. We enjoy the occasional hike and a trip to Starbucks, so if your dog likes that too, a hike and a pup cup are something we're happy to spoil your dog with. If your dog is a lap dog, we love to Netflix and chill and always have an open lap. To limit dander, we do give a quick bath in our walk-in shower after your dog has settled in for those who haven't had a recent bath. If this causes excessive anxiety, we do request that your dog is recently bathed before coming over.
“This is my first time using Nicole and she was fantastic. Very communicative and put me at ease leaving Chloe with her. She sent multiple pictures and videos throughout her stay there and it looked like she was well cared for and had a great time playing with the other dogs there. Would definitely recommend her and will absolutely be using her again.”

“Wonderful people extremely caring and professional, meet and greet on time. Took care of my puppy and got him lots of activity. Will be rebooking for future travel needs !”

“Jamie and her husband were amazing! They were so responsive to me and updated me constantly with how my dog was doing and provided pictures the entire time. They took great care of him and I said he was happy and playful the entire time. Highly recommend and will definitely use them in the future when needed. Thank you!”
