House Sitting Homestead Base

“We had the best experience with Mendora! We were gone for 10 days on vacation and everyday our dogs were looked after and cared for without worry. She showed up on time every time to feed, let our dogs out, and spend time with them. She kept us updated with messages and pictures of our pups daily. One of our dogs was on an antibiotic while in Mendora’s care and she made sure our pup didn’t miss a single pill. Thank you for everything we really appreciate all you did for us and our pups. We will 100% recommend and use again!”

“We are so happy to have found Berenice for our two babies. She accommodated us with only a few weeks notice for a 18 day stay. The house was in great condition and most of all, our dogs seemed to love Berenice. We got lots of videos and photos during our absence and they seemed very well loved. We will definitely contact her again!”

About: I currently have two dogs whom I call my children! And also babysat cats for friends! I’m patient caring, and pay attention at all times! Before work I’m always up at 4 am to ensure time for my dogs to walk, eat, and spend time with each other before I leave. I always make sure there is plenty of love shown at all times. One of my dogs will try to eat his brothers food, so I stand guard until they are done eating. I brush their teeth and hair daily. I use treats as reward for good behavior, but I spoil with healthy treats.

About: I have over 8 years of experience caring for animals. Throughout my pet-sitting journey, I’ve had the pleasure of caring not only for furry four-legged friends, but also barn animals, reptiles, rodents, and aquatic pets. I am a reliable, communicative, loving, and attentive sitter who provides not just the experience your pet needs, but also the love, care, and peace of mind every pet parent deserves. Pet sitting is my full-time profession, which allows me to provide consistent, attentive care and flexible scheduling. I intentionally limit the number of bookings I accept to ensure each pet receives my full attention, so early reservations are recommended. Your pet’s safety is always my top priority. I carefully follow all feeding, medication, and exercise instructions exactly as provided. I maintain a clean, secure environment and closely monitor behavior to ensure comfort and well-being. I provide regular updates with photos and detailed communication so you feel confident and informed while you’re away.

In addition to my pet care expertise, I bring years of babysitting experience, highlighting my commitment to providing compassionate, reliable care for both pets and families. Pet care isn’t just part of my schedule – it’s built into my lifestyle. With 16 years in grooming, a background in veterinary care, and years of babysitting experience, I’ve learned to balance time while keeping quality at the center of everything I do.

I follow the same level of care—feeding, walks, playtime, medication (if needed), and grooming—while keeping their routine consistent. I also maintain the home’s cleanliness and security to give owners peace of mind.

About: Hey parents, my name is Lin. What sets me apart is the genuine love and personal experience I bring to caring for dogs. I’ve raised my two chihuahuas since they were puppies—they’re truly family to me—so I understand how important it is to find someone who treats your pets like their own.

Inside, the rooms are air-conditioned and cozy, so your pup will always be comfortable. I encourage socializing and active playtime, and I keep crate time to a minimum—usually zero—unless it’s part of your dog’s routine. I also have experience with both extrovert and introvert pets as well as puppies and senior dogs, so whether your pup is full of energy or needs a slower pace, they’ll be in safe, loving hands. Me and my fiancé are home full-time, so your pup will always have someone around giving them love and attention. I run my own online business, and she’s a full-time nursing student taking classes from home, which means we’re both here 24/7 to supervise, play, and care for the dogs throughout the day. Whether it’s potty breaks, cuddle sessions, or keeping up with their routine, we’ve got it covered. Your dog will never feel alone or ignored—they’ll be part of the family while they’re with us. Your dog’s safety and comfort are always our top priorities.

Our large backyard is fully fenced for safe outdoor play, and we’re always supervising to make sure everyone is happy and safe—no dog is ever left unattended. Inside, the space is clean, cozy, air-conditioned, and monitored with cameras so we can always keep an eye on everything. We take the responsibility of caring for your pet seriously and treat every dog like they’re part of our own family.

About: Hi, I’m Mari! Animals have been part of my family my whole life, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. I’ve had three Dalmatians, a Dachshund–Chihuahua mix, and a Pomeranian, so I know how different every dog’s personality can be! I’m currently a proud dog mom to Eve, my sweet Dalmatian. 🤎 I have volunteer experience with the Humane Society of Greater Miami and have rescued both cats and dogs. I’ve also boarded dogs in my home and provided house sitting in their own homes. These experiences have taught me to be patient, pay attention to each pet’s needs, and give them time to feel comfortable with me. Now, I’m building my own pet sitting business, Mari and Eve Pet Care, around something I truly love. Whether your pet enjoys playing, going on walks, or simply having someone nearby, I want them to feel loved and cared for while you’re away. As a pet parent myself, I know how much it means to find someone you feel comfortable trusting with your baby! 💕 During their stay or visit: I’ll take the time to learn your pet’s routine, favorite activities, and little quirks. Care can include walks, playtime, meals, potty breaks, and quiet time, depending on their needs and the service booked. I’m happy to send photos and updates so you can see how your baby is doing! 📸🐾 For house sitting, I’ll follow your care instructions and respect your home while keeping your pet comfortable in their familiar surroundings. What I’d love to know about your pet: Tell me a little about your baby! What do they love, what makes them nervous, and what helps them feel comfortable? Please share their feeding and potty schedule, sleeping habits, allergies, medical needs, and any behaviors I should know about. For care in my home, I’d also like to know how they feel around other dogs, since I have Eve. Let me know if this is their first time staying with a sitter so we can talk through what would help them settle in. For boarding, please bring their usual food and any familiar items, like a favorite toy, bed, or blanket. I’d love to arrange a meet and greet so we can get to know each other before their stay! 💕 Open availability Mon-Sun. I will walk, feed, play and bathe your pet as needed. And love them and take care of them like I do with my dog, Eve. ☺️ I will make sure with the owners to meet their pets’ dietary needs and buy them the necessary food to meet those needs. If they are a dog, I will walk them according to their walking needs. I will also have new toys for them to play with. If they are a cat, I will have carpet pieces for them to climb and toys as well. If the pet needs a bath or to be taken to a vet/training/playdate appointment I can do that as well. ☺️
