“Another great experience using Olivia! She has become my go to for all dog walks and boarding. She is kind and treats my dogs like her own. I couldn’t recommend her enough!”
“Gabby is the best dog sitter we have used! She is super thorough, asks the right questions and remembers details about your pup/things to do during the stay, and takes care to make sure your pup is more than comfortable during her drop ins. She is so sweet with my pup- and we definitely recommend her! 😊”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats before along with walking and giving them their medication if needed. I worked for a year at the Kitty Campus Shelter in Miami Beach I’m available on most days outside of saturdays when I volunteer. I usually can come in at any time whether it be early or staying over late. When caring for pets—whether in my home or a client’s—I focus on creating a safe, calm, and loving environment tailored to their routine and personality. I always follow any instructions provided closely, including feeding schedules, exercise needs, and medication if necessary. I make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, and affection, and I try to maintain their normal routine to reduce stress. Cleanliness and safety are top priorities, and I keep owners updated with photos and messages so they know their pets are in good hands. Whether I’m a guest in their home or welcoming them into mine, I treat every pet like they’re my own :)
“Courtney was excellent and took great care of Sasha. She is a great communicator and provided updates with photos from each visit.. I would not hesitate to use Courtney again.”
About: I’ve cared for my daughter’s three dogs and also worked with up to four dogs at once in their own home. I have experience walking dogs of different breeds and sizes, always making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I enjoy spending quality time with pets—walking, feeding, playing, and making sure they feel safe and loved every day. Whether I’m home or visiting a client, I make their pets a priority in my schedule. In a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all instructions carefully. I maintain a calm, clean, and safe environment, giving pets the attention and routine they’re used to. I monitor their behavior closely, provide regular walks, meals, and affection, and always prioritize their comfort and well-being.
“Tyler was great!! He was super communicative and took great care of my pup! My request to book was last minute and he responded quickly and made it work. Will definitely be booking with Tyler again!”
“Julianna is so wonderful- she is always dependable and goes above and beyond to care for my Kitties. With her, I am able to have no worries when I travel. Highly highly recommend. She is great!!!!”
“Would give 6 stars if we could. Could not have found anyone better than Milena. Great communication, very punctual, reliable, caring and attentive. We have 2 cats, 1 very friendly and 1 very shy. Both got along with her from the first day. She stopped by to return the keys and they came running when they heard her voice. We hope she’s available next time we travel!”
“Cristy is a very diligent and responsible professional. She is responsive, punctual, and clean. I like how she took care of my cats and followed the directions precisely. Going on trips away from home can be worrying, but leaving your babies with Cristy will give you a peace of mind”
“Jamie was amazing!! She definitely has a special energy as my cats tend to be aloof - but when she came Terrance was so excited to greet her and be around her. After completing the tasks she stayed and gave the cats much needed attention. You can really tell how much she loves animals and that really resonated with me and my cats! Jamie always came on time and was in communication with me every step of the way. I was never uncomfortable, worried, nor concerned. Will definitely book Jamie again!”
“What a great experience working with Lee. We did 4 drop in sessions a day for three days as we were going out of town. I was nervous at first as this was the first time our American Bully, Arya was left home alone. Lee made this experience as smooth as possible and stress free. Arya had a great time with Lee and I was kept updated every step of the way.”
About: Having/caring for pets has always been my favorite thing to do since I was a kid. I’m a perfectionist so I always make sure all pets are clean/eat/bathe properly I’m currently working from home and a dog mom so I have all the time in the world to care for your pets, no dogs will get out of my sight. I have a puppy to make sure your dog won’t get bored. I can help train basic stuff as well if needed and see fit. I once potty trained my 7.5 weeks puppy successfully in 2 weeks.
“Anna was AMAZING. Our cats are kittens and they were comfortable with her so fast. She sent pictures everyday and every visit. Very communicative and I felt very at peace leaving our kittens with her for over a week.”
“Alejando and his son are attentive and communicative. One of my kitties requires insulin and the process has been flawless and I feel like I can go out of town and not worry. In addition, they cleaned around my litter box and left my home cleaner than when I left. Will book in the future for sure!”

Ryan W.
“I recently had to take on extra shifts at work and couldn’t spend as much time with my two dogs as I’d like. Since they’re shy around new people, I was hesitant to hire a pet sitter but Ryan exceeded my expectations. From the moment I picked them up, I could tell they were well cared for and comfortable. Ryan was not only attentive and reliable but also friendly and kind. I’m so grateful for his care. Highly recommend!”

“I would highly recommend Catherine as a pet caregiver. She has dog sat for our dog Reese several times and is absolutely wonderful. She is extremely loving and sweet with our dog who is like a child to us. Catherine is always on time and always arrives with a positive and cheerful attitude. She always goes above and beyond for our dog: taking her on extra walks, brushing her, and loving on her. We would never want any other pet sitter! Catherine is the absolute best!”
