“Our pup had such a great time staying with Patricia! We came to the area for a wedding and she kept him for the weekend. It was such a joy to see pictures of our fur baby having a blast with new friends, and we highly recommend booking with her!”
“Caitlin was great/dogs loved her. Highly recommend!”
About: Hi! My name is Tara. I am from Tavernier, and I have been taking care of animals for over 15 years. I have a dog of my own and I have experience in caring for other's puppies, dogs, cats and birds. I work as a nurse in Tavernier, and I am available to watch pets on the weekends and afternoons. My services include walks, boarding, pet/house sitting, and feedings. I prefer to watch pets at the client's house and meet the pet beforehand. I like to know their feeding, walking, and bathroom schedule and other special requests your pet may need!
“Ashley was incredible with our pup! She kept us updated the whole time sending pictures and notes along the way! Copper was a happy pup in all the pictures and when we picked him up! Will definitely book with Ashley and her family again!”
About: Cats, dogs and other critters are all great. I'm open to learning about your pet's needs and their special qualities. I live in a central location in Key Largo so it's easy for me to get around. My schedule is open any time of the week. Just let me know and I will work with you. I've worked hard my whole life. I'm familiar with the Upper Keys and have friends throughout various neighborhoods so I'm happy to come to you for your pet's needs. I have a reliable vehicle.
About: I have cared for pets for as long as I can remember and have always had a loved dog in the house. I also grew up on a farm from around 13 to 18, caring for barn cats, horses, donkeys, chickens, geese, and dogs. My life has always been centered around animals, and even when I went to university, I focused on animal care, attaining an Animal Studies major. I truly have a passion for animals, and would say they have always been a major part of my life. I am currently an intern for Coral Restoration Foundation, so my schedule changes weekly. I am extremely passionate about nature and animals, and I moved to Key Largo with my two babies. I am able to take care of your loved pets either before or after my shifts or on my days off! I have two of my own pups, 5-year-old Corgi and a 10-month-old Cocker Spaniel, who have a big yard to play in. They love to go on walks and car rides with me and are crate-trained. My place is typically in a state of a "puppy playpen" due to their scattered toys. My pups are almost always included in my outting if they can come and are huge part of my day to day life.

Give him specific instructions and he will do his best to please you while taking care of and loving your pets. He prefers to come to you so your pets are in their familiar setting. His location is great giving him access to North Key Largo as well as all of Tavernier and Islamorada. He has his own vehicle so transportation is not a problem. He looks forward to meeting great people and their pets.”
