Pet care experience

Dog walks & happy cats 🐾

Hi! I'm Dorothy. I've always loved animals, but I've definitely become a cat person over the years. I love getting to know each cat's personality and letting them warm up to me at their own pace. Some want to play, some want to chat, and some are happiest just having a quiet person nearby—and I'm happy with all of the above. I also enjoy dog walks and drop-in visits. Spending time with animals is one of my favorite ways to unwind after work, and I love getting outside with an excited pup. Pet sitting has become a family business for us. My two teenage daughters work with me, and I love that we've been able to build something together. My oldest is 17 and has her own repeat clients, and my youngest is 15 and helps with visits and walks. Depending on schedules, you may meet one of them too. We all genuinely enjoy caring for animals, and I wouldn't trust just anyone with my clients' pets. This year we said goodbye to my sweet Shih Tzu, Gizmo, and I still think about him often. These days our house is ruled by six cats (ranging from kittens to seniors) and my youngest daughter's adorable Shih Tzu puppy, who keeps us all entertained. While I still offer boarding occasionally if it's the right fit, these days I mostly focus on cat visits, dog walks, and drop-in care. Thanks for stopping by my profile. I hope I get the chance to meet you and your pets. *Grey Cat Pet Care is our small, family-run pet sitting business on Florida's Space Coast.*

Safety, trust & environment

Safety is our absolute top priority. When boarding in our home, dogs have full access to a spacious, completely secure, and fenced yard for supervised playtime. We introduce new dogs slowly and carefully to our puppy and five cats. Whether in our home or yours, we closely follow your specific feeding, medical, and crate routines. Our experience with shelter cats and rescue dogs means we are experts at reading animal body language to ensure every pet feels safe, relaxed, and secure.

We have an older dog that can be a little difficult. She doesn't really want to make new friends. Dorthy did a great job taking care of her and making sure she received her medications. Highly recommend.

Schedule

Pet care is our full-time passion and a total family affair! Because my daughters and I manage our schedule together, someone is almost always home to provide love, supervision, and companionship. Our days are naturally structured around pet care—from morning yard play and neighborhood walks to afternoon cat snuggles and evening wind-down time. Your pet will seamlessly blend into our daily routine and never be short on attention or affection.

To provide the absolute best and safest care, please let us know about your pet’s personality, quirks, and routine ahead of time! It is incredibly helpful to know: -Are they fully house-trained or puppy pad-trained? -How do they do around other dogs and cats? -Do they have any food allergies, resource guarding tendencies, or medical needs? -What are their favorite ways to be comforted if they feel homesick? Knowing these details helps us customize our home and routine to make them feel instantly comfortable!
