Big or small, we love 'em all!

Pet care experience

Having recently relocated to sunny Florida, my husband and I are eager to spoil your precious pup! With 30 years of experience caring for puppies, adults, and senior dogs, we understand the unique needs of each furry friend. When we said goodbye to our sweet girl Brandy, who battled bone cancer, it left an empty space in our home and hearts. Caring for your fur babies would not only bring joy into our lives but also offer you the peace of mind that your pet is cherished as if they were our own. Safety is paramount for us; I hold certification in Pet CPR and First Aid. With extensive experience in caring for elder pups, I am well-versed in providing all forms of medication to ensure their well-being. Thank you for considering us to look after your cherished family member.

My furry family loved Dodie. It was obvious from the meet and greet she was a true animal lover! I came home to a happy family.

Dodie was amazing and went above and beyond. Had a last minute need and she was responsive and professional. I was confident my dog and cats were being well cared for in my absence. She sent regular updates and photos. Am absolute professional.

Dodie took amazing care of our two cats while we were away on a trip. She always provided updates with photos and made sure they were well taken care of. Our cats normally meow like crazy when we get home after being away for a few days and follow us around because they want attention. When we got home from this trip, the cats were perfectly content and did not at all seem starved for attention like usual!! Would recommend Dodie and will use again if we go out of town!

Wonderful experience! My girls loved her and I have never been so comfortable in leaving them! She sent pictures and up dates daily. Great experience and would highly recommend her to care for your fur babies!

In addition to pet care, I am more than capable of tending to other household tasks such as maintaining the house and even caring for the pool, ensuring that your entire home is looked after.

Information Dodie S. would like to know about your pet

What I need to know: All breeds are welcome, but aggressive behavior will not be accepted. The fitness level of your pup will help determine where and how long we walk or run. Any special routine that makes your pet unique is important. We are dedicated to doing whatever it takes to ensure your pet is safe during their visits. If an emergency does arise, we are prepared to follow your instructions on how you want to handle an emergency situation. We will not hesitate to call you if we think something may be wrong.

A typical day

I include a range of enjoyable activities for your pets, including walks, playtime, and plenty of cuddles to keep them happy and engaged. Your pet will never be exposed to busy street traffic. We can play or nap all day!
