Pet care experience

Hi! We're Rocio & Marite!

We are a mother and daughter duo who love dogs :D Hi! Rocio here! My hands-on experience as a former dog rescuer and PetSmart employee sets me apart. Being a dog rescuer has given me the skills to confidently care for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. During my time as a rescuer, I learned not only how to feed them and play with them, but also to administer medicine and bathe them when necessary. As a pet care associate and cashier at PetSmart, I worked with multiple types of dogs and their pet parents to ensure they would get the best products and services. Because of my dedication to the well-being of dogs at PetSmart, I was offered an opportunity to be trained for a dog trainer position, but I had to reject it since I was moving out of state for college. I am in Miami mainly during the holidays and ready to dedicate lots of time to your pup. Marite also has plenty of experience with dogs. She has lived with dogs since she was young, and she used to work as a dog bather. We don't have dogs of our own in Miami, but we miss having a fur baby at home, so we would be more than happy if you choose us to take care of your dog. Sometimes we are both available and at home, but other times it's just one of us who can dog-sit, so we update our profile picture accordingly. Thank you for reading!

I needed someone to take care of my dog while I recovered from surgery, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience. From the moment I met Rocio and her family, it was obvious how much they genuinely love dogs. My dog, Sweetie, is 13 years old, and they went out of their way to make their home comfortable for her. I received daily photos and updates, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was recovering. They even went above and beyond by bringing Sweetie home to me because I wasn't cleared to drive yet. Their kindness, care, and thoughtfulness meant so much to me. I highly recommend Rocio and her family to anyone looking for loving and reliable care for their pet!

Rocio did an amazing job looking after my dog bear. I highly recommended anyone to hear that is looking for a dog sitter. Clear communication and a lot of pictures were very nice. 5 stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Rocio was great with our dog Layla. She gave frequent updates and went above and beyond.

Rocio is so sweet and amazing with Bentley! He had so much fun with her and was very well taken care of. She was attentive, responsive and very flexible when our flight was delayed. Will definitely recommend her to everyone I know and hope to be a repeat customer in the future❤️

Schedule

Marite here! I usually work full-time, so I can guarantee a calm home environment for your pup. I can provide potty breaks in the morning and the evening. On my days off, I can dedicate lots of time to your fur baby.

Safety, trust & environment

We can provide a safe, quiet, and home-like environment for your dog. We love letting them on the couch and giving them lots of cuddles and scratches (we usually let them sleep on the bed too 😅)

A typical day

We always do our best to follow each pet’s routine, so they feel comfortable and cared for just like they do when they're home with their family. Our neighborhood is very walkable, so the walks are always nice. We also give them play time if they bring their toys.
