The K9 & Cat Couple

Hello/Hola/Ruff Ruff/Meow! We’re Kelly & Craig - better known around Miami as The K9 & Cat Couple! Consider us your neighborhood animal whisperers, here to make even the most anxious pet feel right at home. We’re East Coast transplants (NJ + NY!) that happily settled into a gorgeous, dog-friendly building in the Edgewater section of Miami. With 20+ years each of experience caring for animals, we’ve done it all - from raising pups of our own to fostering to looking after others’ pets. At this point, we’ve cared for hundreds of animals and have looked after every shape, size, temperament, and personality imaginable. If it has paws or purrs, we’ve probably loved one just like it. Our home is a spacious 1,100 sq. ft. 2BR/2BA apartment with a beautiful, ocean-facing balcony and a lovely park right next door - the perfect setup for sniff breaks, sun naps, and playtime. Craig works fully remote, and Kelly is hybrid, so there’s almost always someone around to give belly rubs, toss toys, or offer mid-day treats. We’ve been together for over 7 years and run all of our pet-sitting adventures as a team, so your pet gets 2 dedicated caregivers for the price of 1. For walks and pop-in visits at your home, unless specifically requested, it will just be 1 of us. We don’t currently have pets of our own, which means your fur baby gets 100% of our attention and affection. Need help getting your pet to or from us? We’re happy to offer pick-up/drop-off services for a small distance-based fee. Thank you for considering us to care for your warm and fuzzy family member. We can’t wait to meet you both and welcome your pet into our little Miami pack! Feel free to reach out, and let us know if you’d like to schedule a FREE meet and greet or phone call with us! Perks of staying with Kelly & Craig include: *Top notch water filtration system to ensure your pet is drinking water of exceptional quality. *Free basic training on an “as need” basis (i.e. house training, leash training, crate training, separation anxiety, functions like “sit”/“paw”/“lay”). *Giving your pet a brushing session to ensure their coat stays healthy. *Listening to classical music to calm their nerves from being away from you. *Watching animal planet for entertainment. *Cleaning their paws after every walk if they stay at our place (can do this at your house upon request). *Lots of belly rubs and hugs. *A gorgeous view of Biscayne Bay (with an occasional dolphin sighting!)

Dog Walking • May 05, 2026

My dog Atlas took to them right away. Hes a rescue and can be hesitant around new people but not them. He has a great time on his walk and came back exhausted! Will definitely be rebooking! Thanks so much! 💕

Kelly and Craig are absolute gems! This was our first time leaving Zoee with them, and they made us feel completely comfortable with the entire process from start to finish. We loved getting the frequent photo and video updates. It was clear they were giving her so much love and attention. Zoee came back home so happy and relaxed. We couldn't have asked for better sitters and will definitely be booking with them again!

Kelly and Craig are the best dog walkers/sitters I’ve come across! They always respond in a timely manner and send me great pictures of my fur baby! They go above and beyond each booking to ensure I’m at ease when leaving my fur baby in someone else’s hands! 5 stars would recommend!

Doggy Day Care • Apr 01, 2026

Kelly & Craig are amazing!! First, they are very communicative—before even meeting Stryder, Kelly called and made sure they understood Stryder’s needs and what I was looking for in a dogsitter. Second, they are very attentive to the needs of my anxious shepherd. They are very flexible and willing to work with his little quirks and tendencies. I also have really appreciated their transparency with scheduling and their willingness to watch Stryder around my schedule. Stryder is very relaxed and comfortable with them, and comes home a happy boy!

Please let us know if your animal is house trained, lease trained, crate trained, and if we would be allowed to watch other pets while your pet stays with us. Depending on what you prefer, we are totally fine with dogs on our couch and in our bed. Please also let us know when and how long you typically walk and when and how much you feed them. Please also let us know of any other silly little quirks we should be aware of.
