“Jennifer was AMAZING with my Labrador. She followed instructions, provided great updates, and took amazing photos. I felt comfortable with Jennifer and was pleased with the care she provided. She has a genuine love for dogs, which was evident during our initial meet and greet. I came home to a happy and healthy dog! Jennifer was punctual, attentive to detail, and friendly. I highly recommend 😊”

“Katherine was amazing, the booking was quick and simple along with the meet and greet. I was out of town for vacation and I was stress free the entire time knowing my dog was taken care of! Also my community is a nightmare to get in and up and down the apartments and no complaints from her even though I know living there is a nightmare at times. Thank you again! Truly recommend”

About: I have been a kennel technician and an animal care specialist at animal control. I have numerous experience with cats and dogs. I have helped delivered puppies, took care of all animals for extended periods and have overnight dog sat for more than 2 weeks at a time. I am currently working but my hours are flexible and i am in nursing school full time so i am available as much as possible. I can fit your pet into my routine with no problem! I have a fenced yard and a dog at home. I will care for the animals in the clients home but not my own due to my dog not being so well with animals since he was abused very heavily before he came to me. Now he’s a spoiled baby!! I will follow a schedule with no problem and reassure my client with constant communication and understanding that their animal is being 100% loved and cared for.

About: My passion for dogs goes far beyond simply walking them—it has been a significant part of both my personal and professional life for many years. As the owner of Dog Activity World, a successful dog daycare and boarding facility, I was responsible for the daily care, safety, and well-being of countless dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. Operating a daycare and boarding business taught me how to understand canine behavior, manage group dynamics, recognize signs of stress or illness, and provide individualized care based on each dog's unique needs. Whether working with energetic puppies, senior dogs, shy dogs, or highly social dogs, I learned that every dog deserves patience, attention, and genuine affection. What sets me apart is the depth of my hands-on experience. I have cared for dogs not just for an hour at a time, but around the clock, ensuring they were safe, exercised, happy, and loved while their families were away. I understand the trust pet owners place in someone caring for their dogs, and I take that responsibility seriously. Today, I bring that same level of professionalism, reliability, and compassion to every walk and visit. My goal is not only to provide exercise but also to give each dog positive interaction, mental stimulation, and personalized attention while giving owners complete confidence that their beloved family member is in experienced and caring hands. I am available during the week and some weekends. I can handle all sorts of medicine and injections if needed. I am also Pet CPR certified. Your dog’s safety and care is what I value most. I try and look at the world through dog’s eyes and what they need and want most. You’ll receive photos and reports after every visit. I am Pet CPR certified.

About: I get along with all fur babies!! I have been taking care of fur babies for as long as I can remember. I love getting to know their personalities and figuring out what makes them wag!

My goal is to make sure your baby is happy and comfortable. I always ask for special instructions and follow them to a T. I believe in cleanliness so, if your fur baby needs some bath time, I am happy to get the bubbles! Your baby deserves the very best treatment and I am up for the opportunity! So choose me and I know you will be happy you did <3 Watching your baby is my only job so they will get all my attention, love and play. I always take plenty of pictures as well <3 I have a great little dog park right down the street from me and love to take walks over there with my pup up for a game of catch.

About: I’ve taken care of small dogs since I was 13 years old. I have a soft spot for senior dogs, especially small dogs. I have my own senior chihuahua that is important to note when considering me. I love cuddles and pets and certainly am not opposed to cuddles on the couch at night. I am a school psychologist so my typical work day is a school schedule (8:30-2:30). I have off weekends, holidays and evenings so I can be available a lot of the time or as little as you need. I live alone with my small dog in our 2 bedroom condo. It is a very quiet and walkable neighborhood with a park nearby. I will treat your home with respect and care and I can welcome your pup into my home with the same respect and care as if I were in your own home.
“Bridget was so great with Remy! She is patient, friendly and a good communicator. She keeps you in the loop and is super kind. Remy is a shy dog, but warmed up to her on day one. I would definitely recommend Bridget!”

About: Reliable, flexible, and loving! I am available 7 days a week for in-home sitting, drop-in visits, and quick potty breaks tailored to your pet's needs. Having raised animals my entire life—including four dogs and cats from newborns until senior years I understand the unique care required for every life stage. I’ve personally raised them all with patience and love and can't imagine life without them. My current companion, Bones, is a happy 2-year-old I’ve raised, house trained while teaching basic social skills starting at 8 wks old I treat every pet like my own. I’m also happy to follow any specific routines you may have and will provide regular photo/text updates so you never have to wonder how your best friend is doing. I’m available any day of the week while your dog or 🙀 is in my care they’ll get plenty of love, attention and supervision throughout the day. I provide peace of mind by maintaining a secure and tidy environment while you’re away. I am diligent about following feeding schedules, administering medications if needed, and performing safety sweeps of the home during every visit. I treat your home with the same care and attention I would my own, ensuring a safe, happy space for your pets
“Dahyana and Fernando were really great. Fernando was extremely patient with my senior dog who is a slow starter but then moves quickly. She was always happy to see him. I highly recommend them. Thank you.”

“Ted was awesome! This was our first time using the app or really using any service like this and we will definitely be doing it again. He gave us constant updates and was on top of everything. Made us feel very comfortable being away.”

Safety is my #1 priority, no treats will be provided without supervision
“Maria was a blessing to us and our dogs! She was available last minute and took the time to come meet our two dogs before the first time she came while we were gone. We only hired her to come feed and walk the dogs while we were away for a long day and she took the dogs for a really nice walk both days. You can tell she really loves dogs and was so good with them. Thank you Maria!!”

Your space and family are an extension of me while under my care and supervision so nothing short of what I hold for myself and my loved ones.
About: I have experience caring for dogs of all ages and sizes, from energetic puppies to senior dogs. I understand that every dog is unique, and I take the time to tailor my care to each dog’s personality, routine, and stage of life so they feel comfortable, safe, and truly cared for. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I work 8 AM–5 PM, Monday through Friday, but I’m available on weekends for overnight care, sitting, and walks. I have a dog of my own, and with the help of a walker, she’s happy and well cared for while I’m at work. We enjoy long walks twice a day and stick to a consistent feeding schedule, so I know how important routine, exercise, and attention are for keeping pets happy and healthy. I treat every dog in my care like a member of my own family. I provide a safe, comfortable home where pets can feel secure and well cared for. I have a Labrador retriever and understand the importance of regular walks, exercise, and consistent routines. Every pet in my care receives attention tailored to their needs, including feeding, play, and companionship, so they stay happy and comfortable while you’re away.
About: About Me Hi, I’m Corey — a lifelong animal lover and dedicated caretaker with over 20 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, and everything in between. After a fulfilling career in real estate and finance, I made the intentional decision to step back and invest my time in the things that matter most to me — and caring for animals is at the top of that list. This isn’t a side gig for me. It’s a passion I’ve carried my entire life and now have the time and freedom to fully devote myself to. My Experience Over the past two decades, I have personally rescued six dogs and three cats — often while having my own pets at home — finding them safe, loving placements with family and friends when needed. I have a genuine instinct for animals in need; on more occasions than I can count, I’ve spotted a stray, taken them in, and made sure they were safe and cared for. Most recently, a pair of small dogs found wandering a parking garage ended up becoming beloved pets for my nephews. That’s just how I’m wired. Beyond rescue, I have extensive experience with: • Overnight pet sitting and house sitting • Daily dog walking • Medication administration (oral and routine care) • Dogs and cats with special needs or specific routines • Honoring particular owner requests — because no one knows your pet better than you do I am also a certified dog walker and pet sitter through Rover, with a completed background check on file. My Promise to You I understand deeply how hard it is to leave your pet behind. They’re not just animals — they’re family. My goal is to give you genuine peace of mind by providing the same attentive, loving care I give to my own animals. You’ll have a reliable, experienced caretaker who truly enjoys every moment spent with your pet — not someone just going through the motions. Your baby is in great hands! Currently taking time off after working long hours in a high profile career after many years. I am a lifelong resident of Fort Lauderdale living in Imperial Point. I have a lot of free time on my hands and have a very flexible schedule. I am able to provide almost any care or service you may have. If you’re yard isn’t fenced I will always use a leash and will be sure to pick up after them to keep your neighbors happy on walks.

Jennifer is paws-itively amazing! 🐾 My Frenchie absolutely adores her, and it's clear she genuinely loves the pets she cares for. I never have to worry when he's with her because I know he's getting plenty of attention, love, and belly rubs. If my dog could leave a review himself, he'd give her 5 stars and probably a treat too!

We’ve had a great experience with Joelle. She’s always reliable, easy to communicate with, and clearly loves dogs. Our dog gets excited every time she shows up and always comes home happy and well-exercised. It’s such a relief knowing our pup is in great hands. Highly recommend!

Katherine was amazing, the booking was quick and simple along with the meet and greet. I was out of town for vacation and I was stress free the entire time knowing my dog was taken care of! Also my community is a nightmare to get in and up and down the apartments and no complaints from her even though I know living there is a nightmare at times. Thank you again! Truly recommend

Ben was absolutely wonderful with my dog, Pablo. Pablo is a small Chihuahua and can be a bit particular, but Ben was incredibly patient and took the time to make him feel comfortable. I really appreciated how attentive and understanding he was, by the end, Pablo was not only relaxed but even going on longer walks, which says a lot. It gave me such peace of mind knowing Pablo was in great hands while I was at work. I highly recommend Ben to anyone looking for someone reliable, patient, and genuinely great with dogs. Thank you again, Ben!

Maria was a blessing to us and our dogs! She was available last minute and took the time to come meet our two dogs before the first time she came while we were gone. We only hired her to come feed and walk the dogs while we were away for a long day and she took the dogs for a really nice walk both days. You can tell she really loves dogs and was so good with them. Thank you Maria!!

I highly recommend Aaron for anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog walker or pet sitter. They took wonderful care of my dog while I was on vacation, and I had complete peace of mind knowing my dog was in such good hands. They were always punctual, attentive, and incredibly loving. It was clear that they genuinely care about animals, and my dog was happy, comfortable, and well cared for when I returned. Their professionalism and kindness truly stood out. I would absolutely trust them again and recommend them to anyone looking for exceptional care for their pet.

Margaret has been great with our dog Leo on regular walks, she has been very communicative and on top of things. She had to cancel once last minute due to illness, but communicated as soon as she knew and it hasn’t happened since then. Leo loves her and she takes care to ensure he is happy and healthy!

Genesis is great! I was nervous to do this but she is a life saver. Beso is my baby and thanks to her I was able to relax and enjoy. Thank you. It was my first time with her but I’d definitely try with her again. She was very present and communicative. 5 stars ⭐️

Shannon took excellent care of our greyhound and cat. I would recommend her without question. She even fixed our broken vacuum cleaner! I had such a good feeling about her when I met her, and I was definitely right. Thank you, Shannon, you are every dog mother’s dream as a dog sitter.❤️
