About: I'm a dog lover with over 15 years of experience caring for pups. For the past 5 years, I've been a dedicated foster parent for South Florida Dachshund Rescue, welcoming over 20+ adorable pups into my loving home! Currently, my sweet dachshund, Luna (age 10!), keeps me company, and I previously had a Jack Russell who lived a happy life to 17. Being around dogs my whole life has given me a deep understanding of their needs. I can tailor walks to your dog's energy level and personality, ensuring they get the exercise and playtime they deserve. Whether your pup is a playful dachshund or a spunky Jack Russell, I'll treat them like my own – with love, patience, and respect. I taken care of dogs of all ages and have learned the patience of gaining a dogs trust with love and affection. I am self employed and have lots of free time through out my days all week Monday thru Sunday to cater all your pet care needs. My Luna is potty trained and moves around the house as she pleases. Our apartment offers tons of space and is a very peaceful and welcoming environment for any dog.

“Rebecca is quick at communicating and I got daily photos and fast replies. She has plenty of space and is very kind. She asked about my preferences for feeding and crating my pup. Her pup, Pepper, was sweet and played well with mine (after just a little grumbling from Pepper to let mine know it’s peppers house lol but both tails were wagging like crazy). Rebecca is a great pet sitter. I definitely recommend her, and would love to return to her as long as she’s available.”


“I cannot recommend Maisa highly enough! She boarded my pomsky, Romeo, for four days and she provided best-in-class service from start to finish. Her communication was above and beyond—she sent a milllion photos and videos, keeping me updated from sunrise to sunset. I never once had to wonder how Romeo was doing; I could see how happy and comfortable he was every step of the way. Additionally, Romeo absolutely adored Maisa's two dogs. They played well together and by all accounts there were no issues integrating Romeo into her home. It was clear she genuinely cared about Romeo and treated him like one of her own. Her attention to detail, warmth, and reliability gave me complete peace of mind. I came home to a happy, healthy pup, and I know he had a great time playing with her two dogs! If you're looking for someone who will love and care for your dog like family, look no further. I will absolutely be booking with her again!”


“Kathye definitely lived up to her 5 star reputation. When it comes to trusting someone else with your pet, there really isn’t much more to ask for than having them returned to you happy and healthy and that is exactly what I got. Kathye very clearly understands the emotional component of leaving your pet behind and will keep you updated the whole stay-she is quick to respond to messages and you will feel very comfortable from drop off to pick up. I have spent 3x as much money on pricey pet hotels and had my pet return to me limping and injured with no explanation. You will not be disappointed if you choose to board with Kathye. IMO she is worth way more than she charges.”


“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!”


“Another perfect experience with Elizabeth! I left my mini goldendoodle for the day today and she sent some great photos and videos of Dakota having a blast with her boys and fellow pups under her care. Looking forward to our next stay in January!”


“Christy and Ben were ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT! I needed a dog sitter last minute and they were fantastic in communication and extremely accommodating. My dog Philly fell in love with them. They looked after her like she was their own and sent loads of pics and videos and messages whilst Philly stayed with them. I will 100% be using them in future 🙏🏼 Thanks Christy and Ben”


“I was overall happy with the care Mary gave to my pet. She knows everything about cats whether they’re big or small. I was updated by her and gave me photos and videos. My cat enjoyed his time at her home and it was like a vacation for him. I will for sure come back for her whenever I need a cat sitter.”


“Monique was an amazing cat sitter! She took our two cats in and they grew to love her! She was super communicative and sent lots of photos and videos daily. We could really tell she liked taking care of the cats and we were super comfortable having her watch them!! She’s the best!!”


“I was Patrick & Meredith first experience on Rover. It was going really well and unfortunately... No fault of the H's a dog attacked my dog (they had taken all precautions but the aggressive dog owners hadn't). They sprung into action and took him to my listed vet (who is way out of their way). They called me immediately and helped manage the cost side by insulating me from the aggressive dog owner (they did all the difficult things). They couldn't have handled it better and on top of that Eli is beyond excited when he knows he's going on vacation to their house. I've had trouble feeling sitters have integrity and or transparency (wasn't ever sure if previous sitters would hide things from me or even mistreat Eli) Patrick and Meredith have both integrity and transparency. Eli will only be staying with them so... Don't tell everyone or they'll be too busy :) Feel fortunate that I found them. I couldn't recommend them any more highly. No exaggeration, they truly treat your dog as an extension of their family and when I'm traveling they remove any worry I'd typically have for his well-being which is very comforting. Thanks as always!”


About: I’ve always been an animal lover. I raised two dogs from puppyhood. Lucy lived to 18, and my current pup, Porscha, is now 14. I also have a 15 year old cat, AppleJack, I’ve had since she was a kitten. So I know what it’s like to care for pets at every stage of life, from playful zoomies to slower senior strolls. I started pet sitting because I wasn’t looking to commit to another full time pet, but I still wanted to spend my days caring for animals and helping fellow pet parents. Whether it’s a quick walk, overnight stay, or just some company while you’re away, I’m here to give your pet the love and attention they deserve. I’m especially great with: Puppies and senior pets Shy or anxious animals Keeping routines and providing lots of updates (with cute pics!) At Playful Paws, your pet will feel safe, loved, and totally at home. I work fully remote, and so does my husband, which gives us the flexibility to provide consistent, attentive care throughout the day. Whether your pet needs a morning walk, a midday check-in, or some evening cuddles, we’re usually home and available to help. Being remote means your pet won’t be left alone for long periods, and we can easily adjust to their routine. Weekdays, weekends, we’re here to keep tails wagging and whiskers happy. Whether your pet is staying with me or I’m visiting them in your home, their safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I treat every pet like they’re my own, with patience, love, and respect for their routine. At home, I create a calm, pet-friendly environment with cozy spaces, a clean setting, and plenty of playtime. My husband and I both work remotely, so someone’s almost always home for companionship and supervision. In your home, I’m mindful of your space and your pet’s habits. I follow instructions closely, whether that’s meal times, meds, or favorite toys, and I always keep things tidy and secure. You’ll get regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your fur baby is in caring, capable hands.

Billi T.
“I’m so lucky and grateful to have Billi as my dog sitter! She is truly attentive and always keeps me updated with plenty of pictures and videos. As a dog mom it's hard to be away from my pup but when my dog (Chance) is with her I feel like I'm there. She’s incredibly reliable and sends updates frequently with videos/pictures. I never have to worry because she’s quick to respond if I do have any questions or concerns. Every time my dog comes home, he’s happy, healthy, and clearly loved like family. It’s such a comfort knowing my pup is in such caring hands! I would highly recommend Billi to watch your furry friend because she loves them like they are hers. I never need to worry about Chance when he's there.”
