About: I’m active, patient, and reliable. I run regularly, enjoy long walks, and make sure high-energy dogs get proper exercise and attention. I’m comfortable with dogs of all ages :) Pet care fits easily into my routine as a nursing student. I’m available early mornings and most afternoons after noon, making walks, runs, and check-ins easy to schedule. I stick closely to each pet’s routine and make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I focus on safe walks, exercise, playtime, and lots of attention.
About: I have had dogs and cats my entire life, all sizes and breeds. I have cared for many dogs and cats over 20 years. I would be honored to sit or care for your fur/fur-less babies! I am available Mon-Thurs without exceptions. Fri, Sat & Sun I can be available with my profession exceptions. Very flexible and open to your needs. I will come to your home to care for your pet in their comfort zone. No need to disturb their routine. Responsible, reliable and honored to care for your family member.

“Sandy was fantastic. I had peace of mind knowing my animals were well taken care of. She sent pictures daily with little updates. It’s tough when you’re out of state - but all was well with Sandy. Definitely recommend and of course will use again!!”


“Shelby was amazing! She was scheduled for 2 visits a day for 2 days when family was visiting from out of state with their 10 month old puppy. She was prompt, spent a good amount of time with the puppy on her visits and sent the most precious pictures at every visit. Don’t hesitate to call Shelby, I highly recommend her!”
“Michelle is absolutely amazing! She was so incredible with our cats and even one of our cats that doesn’t warm up to strangers loves her! This is the first time we have left our cats for so long and we were worried, but after the first visit with Michelle we were so happy and could relax! She went over and above what we expected and could not ask for a better pet sitter! We will be using her a lot!!! If you were ever on the fence about leaving your previous pets in the care of a stranger, you should use Michelle and never worry about your fur babies! Thank you so much Michelle!!”

“Mindy has been wonderfully patient with my nervous, and overly energetic baby. Seeing my dog get sooo excited to see Mindy a 2nd time was such a gift. Our pup thinks Mindy is now her special friend, there to visit her.”


About: I love animals of all shapes and sizes! I recently completed my PhD in Oceanography and was previously licensed as a veterinary technician with over 10 years paid pet sitting experience. I have 2 cats of my own, but also love dogs, exotic pets, and pocket pets. I have even worked with both farm and zoo animals! I am caring, outgoing, and reliable and will treat your furry friends like my own! I am active and love taking my clients for long walks or spending extended playtime in the backyard. I will provide photo and video updates to help ease those worried minds. Whether you are looking for overnight care or drop-in walks, you and your pets can feel safe knowing you chose someone with an extensive medical and behavioral background. I just graduated with my PhD in Oceanography and am taking some time off before starting a post-doc role at Florida Tech meaning I have a flexible schedule and daytime availability. I am currently taking some time off after my PhD before starting a research position at Florida Tech so I make my own hours and can be available at the times that work best for your pet. I always make sure clients' homes and pets are treated safely and respectfully. I begin with a meet and greet session to make get to know you, your pet, and your home and make sure we will be a good fit. When I come to a clients home I always follow the directions they provide me and provide plenty of pictures and videos during my visits.
About: Hi, I’m Lex! I’ve been an animal lover my entire life and currently share my days with two pit bulls, Ted and Wayne, who have taught me patience, structure, and just how much personality one dog can have. I’m also very familiar with dogs who need a little extra reassurance, consistency, or space to warm up. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes and energy levels, from laid-back couch companions to dogs who need long walks, enrichment, and routine. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, administering basic medications, crate routines, and reinforcing any training you’re already working on at home. I’m attentive, calm, and detail-oriented, and I treat every dog as if they were my own. I understand how important trust is when leaving your pet in someone else’s care, and I’m happy to provide regular updates, photos, and communication while you’re away. Whether your dog needs a reliable walker, drop-in visits, or overnight care, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. I look forward to meeting you and your pup! — Lex I just arrived in Florida and am in the process of settling in, so my schedule is very flexible right now. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine, and I’m able to plan my days around walks, feedings, drop-ins, and quality time. Since I’m not juggling another job at the moment, I can be fully present and reliable, and I genuinely enjoy building my routine around caring for animals. I focus on caring for pets in their own home through walks and drop-in visits, where they’re most comfortable. I follow each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions you provide. I pay close attention to energy levels and personalities, whether that means a long walk to burn energy or a calm check-in with extra affection. I make sure pets have fresh water, a clean space, and feel safe and cared for, and I always send updates and photos after visits.
About: I have been a dog owner my whole life, and have been pet sitting since I was a teenager. I have experience with puppies, older dogs, special needs (lots of medication) dogs, and working with multiple dogs at one time. My favorite part about working with dogs is being able to run and play with them. I am available early mornings and late nights. I also love trail walking/running, so I'll make sure your dog gets the exercise they need! I follow a rigorous routine of walking/running with my own dogs, and will take the same care with yours! Based on your pets exercise level, we can walk/run for up to an hour as needed. Caring for other dogs involves building trust through playtime, walks, and of course, treats! Making sure your dog is comfortable on walks and overnights is the top most priority.

About: Hi! My name is SJ! I always wanted to find someone reliable, kind, gentle and understanding to watch my own girls when I needed to go out of town. So I decided to be that for others who may also need a lil help in the puppy department. Trusting someone with your fur babies is one of the hardest things... Let me help take that stress off of your shoulders. Leave a detailed message on how to care for your fur baby and I got you! I treat every animal as if it were a human. Dogs especially always find their way to me 😂 I'm basically Ms. Rachel , but for dogs 🤣 I can be available for drop in visits, or some in-home sitting, let me know what you need. No worries! For some reason my rates are all over the place on this app and there's no way for me to update them I keep it easy and the same for everyone. 20 per visit +10 for additional pets. Example: 1 dog + 3 visits = 60. 2 dogs + 3 visits = 90. Message me or text to book I'm an Uber Driver and a local musician so I occasionally play music around Brevard county but I have plenty of time for your pets! My girls are set in their daily routines. I come and go throughout the day. I have a semi fenced yard (the rest is a natural barrier) our girls stay in the garden and don't ever leave the premises. It's a garden/dog park in our backyard. In your home, I would just need very clear directions on what your expectation is and I can follow that guideline with no problem :) My time is spent with your pet playing, feeding, walking, or just being there for some human interaction. I can clean up anything while I'm there for you. Just think of me as your assistant. Let me know what I can do to make your pet/day a little easier.

“Ebony has been a life saver for my family and I! My dogs are getting old and cannot be left home alone for extended period of time without some love and a potty break. She comes to my house every day that I work and does just that. My dogs get excited and meet her at the door, knowing that they are going to get some attention and a well deserved walk around the block. She has even brought over another 4 legged friend for my pups to enjoy some time with! She is very trustworthy, respects your home and your animals, and I cannot recommend her enough.”


“Jennifer is an incredible pet sitter! She took excellent care of our cat Arnold. My cat is generally timid around other people…but not her! Plus, she’s super responsive and communicative with detailed updates! She definitely has a way with animals. Thank you, Jennifer!!”

About: Howdy! I am a laid back dog lover who would love to hang out with some dogs after work. I have a dog of my own who is always up for friends or to relax at home. I currently work full time but could do evening walks or weekend drop-in every few hours. Sadly living in an apartment I can not have any animals staying with me. I do not plan to have dogs at my apartment at this time. I plan to explore dog walking and drop in until I can move into a house.
“Zarah is amazing with my 65 lb American Bully! She is always on time, available with my last minute schedule, and most importantly amazing with my pup! I am a crazy dog mom so I have extremely high standards. I always trust her looking after him and know he’s in great hands! Highly recommend!”

“Heather was amazing we kept tabs on ring and also via messaging and she sent pictures every day and gave us an update and my two cats are not the easiest cats because they were ferals and one of them needed insulin shots twice a day as she has diabetes which is not an easy task for any sitter and they warmed up to her almost instantly so we are very pleased and would definitely use her again the next time we travel. Sweet lady, great sitter.”

About: I grew up in a busy household with seven siblings, along with two cats and two dogs, so caring for animals was part of my everyday life from an early age. As one of only two boys in the family, I often took on the responsibility of handling the more hands-on tasks, like feeding, cleaning, walking, and making sure our pets stayed happy and healthy. Neighbors quickly noticed how comfortable and reliable I was with animals, and I began helping them with pet care and housesitting as well. What started as helping out around the neighborhood turned into a steady source of income throughout high school and college. Over the years, I’ve cared for a wide variety of pets and situations, and I genuinely enjoy the responsibility. Pet care never felt like a chore to me — it’s something I’ve always loved doing, and I take pride in making sure every animal feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. As a college student, I crafted my schedule around Tuesdays and Thursdays. I don't have anything on Mon-Wed-Fri. Plus, weekends are off. I work 6-8 pm Mondays through Thursdays. I have a fenced-in backyard, I love going on walks, and I have years of experience giving cats or dogs medicine. Whatever your animal needs, I'm sure I can do it!
