So incredibly sweet and responsive! We are so grateful for her being able and willing to take care of our fur babies! Our little one is incredibly shy with new people and she was able to work with him so well. Super appreciative!

About: I’m a dependable and caring pet sitter with experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages. I’ve always grown up around dogs and cats and am a current pet owner myself, which has given me a strong understanding of their needs and behaviors. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, walks, and playtime. I’m very communicative and will keep you updated so you feel at ease while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and I have a very flexible schedule. As a medical student, I’m responsible, detail-oriented, and used to managing structured routines while staying attentive to important needs. I have availability throughout the week and weekends for visits, walks, and quality time with your pet. I prioritize safety and trust while caring for your pets at home, including feeding, providing fresh water, cleaning litter boxes, maintaining clean spaces (including pee pads when needed), and offering calm, stress-free visits. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can feel confident and at ease while you’re away.

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs for as long as I can remember. I grew up with them and this is the first time since I was 2 that I haven’t had a dog in my home, so I truly miss being around them. I’ve helped raise 5 puppies, so I’m comfortable with everything from training basics to high-energy stages. I love dogs of all sizes and personalities. I enjoy going on walks and staying active, but I’m also in medical school, so I’m just as happy spending time studying while keeping your dog company if they prefer a calm environment. I’m very attentive, reliable, and treat every dog like they’re my own. I’m on campus during the daytime Tuesday through Thursday, but aside from that I have a very open schedule. I’m usually studying, which gives me flexibility throughout the day and evening. I’m available for mornings, nights, weekends, and overnights, and can easily adjust my schedule to meet your pet’s needs. I do not have any pets and am not allowed to have them in my apartment, so I provide care in my client’s home. I follow all care instructions closely and make sure your pet stays in their normal routine. I am respectful of your space, keep things clean, and make sure your pet is comfortable, safe, and well cared for while you’re away.

About: I’ve owned and cared for multiple dogs and cats my entire life, so caring for animals comes very naturally to me. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and pets of all ages, from energetic puppies and kittens to senior pets who need extra patience and attention. I’m comfortable working with anxious, shy, or reactive animals and always take the time to build trust and make them feel safe. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, basic training reinforcement, or simply keeping your pet company, I provide attentive, loving, and reliable care. I can also provide light grooming services such as brushing, baths, nail trims, and general coat care when needed. Pet care is my full-time focus, which gives me a very flexible schedule throughout the week and on weekends. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, feeding, playtime, light grooming, and overnight care when needed. Since this is my primary commitment, I’m able to provide attentive, reliable care and can often accommodate requests outside of my listed availability as well. Your pet’s safety and comfort are very important to me. I provide a calm, loving environment and always follow feeding schedules, walking routines, and any special instructions carefully. I’m attentive to each pet’s personality and needs, and I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for whether in my home or yours.

About: my lifelong experience and genuine passion for animals. I’ve grown up caring for five pets throughout my life, including cats, dogs, and a rabbit, and I also studied veterinary courses in college as an aspiring vet, which gave me strong animal handling skills and knowledge of pet health and behavior. I have experience caring for kittens, senior pets, small animals and animals with special medical needs, including a dog with cancer and a three-legged dog, so I understand the patience, compassion, and extra attention some pets require. I’m also currently pursuing animal psychology, which helps me better understand animal behavior and create a calm, safe, and loving environment for every pet in my care. Pet care is apart of my daily life in home but I’m currently a college student and don’t start work until June . My schedule is always free for animals. When caring for pets in my home, I make sure they are in a safe, clean, and comfortable environment where they can feel relaxed and at home. Cats are kept indoors at all times or can safely enjoy supervised time on the balcony, and my residence has plenty of pet-friendly areas and walking paths for dogs to get exercise, playtime, and fresh air. I follow each pet’s normal routine closely, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, medication if needed, and lots of attention and affection. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make it a priority to keep their routine consistent and provide patient, loving care so they feel comfortable and stress-free while their owner is away.

About: I've loved dogs my whole life and have been caring for them since I was a kid, walking, feeding, and keeping them company for neighbors, friends, and family over the years. I'm currently a medical student in Miami, which means I'm detail-oriented, reliable, and genuinely attentive to how a dog is doing. I treat every dog like my own and make sure each walk is safe, fun, and stress-free. I'm based in Downtown Miami and know the neighborhood well! I'm a medical student with a flexible but variable schedule, so I work best with a little advance notice for new bookings. I'm generally available for walks on weekday nights and weekends, and I always communicate proactively if my schedule shifts. Repeat clients get priority, and I aim to be as consistent as possible! I do walks in and around Downtown Miami and treat every dog with the same care and attention I'd want for my own pet. I always keep dogs leashed in public, stay off my phone during walks, and send updates along the way. I also live right near a beautiful local dog park, perfect for some extra playtime and socializing! I'm happy to accommodate any specific routines, commands, or needs your dog has.

We had Aracelis take care of our two cats over Christmas, and she did a wonderful job. She kept them fed, made sure their litter was clean, and checked in on them throughout the holidays. It was great knowing they were well taken care of while we were away. We would highly recommend Aracelis to anyone looking for a reliable and caring cat sitter!

About: I’ve watched and taken care and had pets of my own since I was a young girl. My family own 10 dogs in total through out the whole entire family. Our group chats are filled with everyone constantly sending pics of their animals. Pet care is everyday for me. I own a Sphynx cat and pit lab boxer mix that I tend to every day. Feed , walk and entertain with my own silliness. I take care of my pets by always keeping an eye on them. Making sure they aren’t getting into anything. If they seem bored I’ll take them outside or give them a snack.

I highly recommend Rachel for your pets needs! They will be in good hands!

About: I have dedicated over 8 years to caring for dogs with heartfelt love. During this time, I’ve had the pleasure of attending to dogs of all breeds and temperaments. Currently, I work in a veterinary clinic as an assistant manager and vet technician, where I administer medications, assist with treatments, and monitor recoveries to ensure every dog feels safe and pampered. Additionally, I completed several semesters of veterinary medicine in Colombia, which allowed me to gain special insight into animal health. Whether it’s walks, feeding, or early detection of warning signs, my care ensures your dog is in expert and, most importantly, loving hands, always treated as part of the family. I work Monday to Friday from 9AM to 6:00 PM and take weekends off. Daily/Weekly Routine for Pet Care Despite my busy work schedule from Monday to Friday, I make sure that pet care remains a top priority. My mornings and evenings are dedicated to taking care of dogs, ensuring they receive proper walks, feeding, and a little extra love. On my days off during the weekend, I use the extra time to engage in longer activities, playful outings, and additional care, guaranteeing that every dog feels cherished and well-attended. At my home, I live with a friendly dog who gets along well with other dogs and cats, and she is up to date on her vaccinations and preventive care. I also share my home with a cat who is equally sociable with both dogs and cats. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I bring the same level of love, attention, and care. I ensure that every pet feels safe and comfortable, creating a nurturing environment that both the pet and the owner can trust.

About: I love dogs (original, I know haha). I have been blessed to be the parent of 3 (small to large) dogs. Growing up, my Lab gave birth to 45 puppies over time so I have experience with dogs of all ages (I aided in all her births). When I was 7 years old I started my own pet-sitting company called "A tail or two" (aka Nanny Pet). Since I moved away for college, I do not have a dog of my own so I think this will help fill that void until I can get my own. Although I am not certified, I am also versed in the behavior of dogs (by no means am I a professional).

Jennalynn was awesome with Pepper. She is very knowledgeable and has a lot of experience with rescue dogs which is hard to find. I have a fearful reactive dog I recently adopted, so I had to give her 100 details about her background. Her communication to come up with an intro plan made things so much easier. I highly recommend Jennalynn for all dog needs!

Natalia is incredible!! I hired her very last minute for drop in visits and walks for my bernedoodle Bear, when my plans changed on extremely short notice. She was flexible, reliable and friendly, and even more importantly, she really took the time to connect with Bear. This was my first time leaving Bear since adopting him, and since I work from home, he is not used to spending time alone. After one drop in visit, he began howling after Natalia left; she heard him, went back inside to calm him down, left her sweatshirt for him to cuddle with, and stayed until he settled. I felt so reassured knowing that someone so caring was looking after him. We will absolutely hire Natalia again going forward.

I can’t say enough wonderful things! From the very first meeting, it was clear how much love, care, and genuine attention Chanell has for animals! Throughout the time I was away, she kept me updated with photos, videos, and little notes about how my pup was doing—giving me complete peace of mind. I came home to a happy and healthy dog who clearly was well looked out for. She also showed care to my home while away which I thought was very thoughtful. I feel so lucky to have found Chanell and will absolutely be booking again. Highly recommend to anyone looking for top-notch care for their furry family member!
