“Dawn was assume. She took great care of Trixie while we were away. Communication with her prior to and during her visits was great. Would highly recommend!”



About: I have been told that I am a dog whisper, as I naturally connect with animals and they tend to feel at ease with me. I currently work in animal welfare, am a trained animal control officer and have been pet sitting on and off for about 10 years. I have cared for pets of all ages, sizes, temperaments and energy levels. Whether your pet needs extra playtime, long walks or a running buddy, I am happy to keep up! I am Fear Free certified and have extensive experience with nervous animals, always leading with patience and compassion. I am comfortable administering medications and injections as well. Above all, it is my priority to ensure your pets feel safe, loved and cared for while you are away. They will get plenty of attention, affection and love while under my care! My typical work schedule is 8am-5pm, Tuesdays-Saturdays with a hour lunch break in the afternoon. I work in events so my schedule can vary each week. Sundays and Mondays are typically my most flexible days. I spend as much time as possible with the pets I watch to ensure they don’t feel lonely, providing lots of attention, play and love. The pets under my care get lots of one on one attention from me.

“Julie was awesome! Such a great communicator and went above and beyond with assisting us with the pups so we could explore while on vacation!”


“Alena is fantastic! We were headed to Dry Tortugas Park in the Florida Keyes for the day and couldn't take our dog "JoJo" with us. The previous day she suggested a meet & greet (which I didn't even know was a "thing"). JoJo connected with her right away. And from the pictures she sent, JoJo is smiling and happy. I would definitely recommend her and would hire her again.”


“Lindsey was great, did walks on time and updated me with great pictures. My puppy loved her and I will absolutely consider Lindsey next time I’m out of town.”


“Ashley helped us out of a bind, when the dog-walker we had scheduled came down with COVID only 18 hrs before our scheduled all-day trip out of Key West. Communication with Ashley was great - from the initial communication all the way through photos of our friend on his mid-day walk.”

They are always by my side or on my lap. We have a basket of toys and play all the time. We also have a great lanai which is perfect for the pups to get some fresh air anytime.

About: I have grown in a farm rounded by dogs and cats and a I love to train, walked and groom dogs and cats. My wife is also a cat and dog lover and we are a great team taking care of pets. My job allows me to be 24/7 being with the pets I am sitting. I can start at 6 am and receive pets until 11 pm.

About: Have had dogs since the day I was born, groomed them, trained them, walked them, and most importantly loved them wholeheartedly. I’ve cared and raised dogs from ages 3 weeks till they unfortunately departed. I’m currently in nursing school so I have lots of time to love them from home while I study or go hang out with them on study breaks. Take them for walks or if at my house walk them to the beach. I have room at my apartment and an unfenced yard where they could roam around. I have two fur babies that could keep them company on top of my company. I have a beach walking distance where they could run around if allowed by owner.

About: I house sat for multiple neighbors when I was in high school. Since then I have house sat or helped friends with their pets through out the years. These jobs were always just as favors, but they would return to me for the job they needed. I come from a family with lots of animals. We always had dogs, cats, rabbits, and horses growing up. All for pets and I love them all! ☺️ I work from home part time. Thus my hours for this job are very flexible. I would prefer to work mid day between 10:00-2:00 MTWF I can not accommodate in home services. Due to roommate’s dog sometimes having an issue with other animals and sometimes not having an issue with other animals. Thus I can not risk there being an issue with your animal.
