Loving VIP care for your pup

I've cared for dogs my whole life from bouncy puppies to seniors. Ive had 8 dogs over the years, and I've volunteered many animal shelters, so I'm comfortable with every breed, size, and personality, including the shy, anxious, or the high energy ones that need a little extra patience. Here's what sets me apart. First, I do photo and video for a living, so the daily updates you get from me won't be blurry phone pics. You'll always know exactly how they're doing, and you'll come home to real proof they were happy the whole time. Second, your dog gets my full one-on-one attention, no crowded kennel, no revolving door of dogs, just calm, focused care and someone who's actually present with them. And third, I keep their world exactly as they know it: same feeding times, same walks, same comfort spots, so nothing about their routine has to change just because you're away. Above all, I'm calm, attentive, and obsessed with getting the details right feeding times, walk routines, favorite toys, all of it. I treat every dog like my own. Let's start with a free Meet & Greet so you and your pup can get comfortable with me before you book anything.

Safety, trust & environment

In your home (house sitting): I keep your dog's world exactly as they know it same feeding times, same walks, same comfy spots. I'm respectful and tidy in your space, follow every instruction you leave, and keep your home locked up and secure. I stay overnight so your dog is never alone, and you'll get regular photo and video updates so you can relax on your trip. In my home (boarding): Your dog gets a calm, clean, one-on-one environment with my full attention no crowded kennel, no chaos. I live in a non-smoking home in Downtown Fort Lauderdale with easy access to walks and parks nearby, and dogs are always welcome on the couch and bed so they never feel shut out.

Absolutely spectacular. Truly one of a kind. Everything was perfect from start to finish, and I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. My dog and cat were incredibly well cared for, the communication was excellent, the house was immaculate, and I came home to two very happy animals. It’s rare to find someone this responsible, thoughtful, trustworthy, and genuinely great with animals. I hope this review gets them a ton more business because they absolutely deserve it. I would recommend them without hesitation and will 100% use them again. An absolute gem.

Eli was excellent. He provided pictures and videos so I felt like I knew exactly how my pup was doing. Would highly recommend!

Schedule

I work part-time on a flexible schedule, so your dog gets steady attention throughout the day instead of a sitter rushing in and out. I'm available for overnight stays and I respond fast usually within minutes. I'm also happy to be flexible on drop-off and pick-up times when travel plans shift (canceled flights and traffic happen I've got you). Message me your dates and let's set up a quick Meet & Greet.

Tell me everything that helps me care for them well: feeding schedule, any medications or allergies, favorite toys and games, and any anxieties or triggers like thunderstorms, other dogs, or new people. The more I know about their routine and quirks up front, the smoother and cozier their stay will be.
