“Gabrielle took wonderful care of our dog Rocky for three days. She was an excellent communicator and sent pictures and updates regularly. Rocky is a shy dog and she brought him out of his shell quickly. She Played fetch with him multiple times a day and gave him snuggles. This is the best experience for our family. Definitely will be using her in the future!”

About: With over 20 years of hands-on experience in animal rescue and rehabilitation, I have devoted my life to the health, happiness, and comfort of pets of all kinds—from tiny bugs and birds to beloved dogs and everything in between. As a lifelong dog owner and passionate advocate for animals big and small, I specialize in at-home pet sitting that goes far beyond basic care. My background includes providing tailored rehabilitative support for a wide range of ailments, ensuring every pet receives attentive, knowledgeable attention that prioritizes their individual needs and well-being. When you entrust your furry (or feathered, or scaly) family member to me, you can rest easy knowing they’re in the hands of someone who truly understands and loves animals deeply. I focus 100% on their physical recovery, emotional comfort, and daily joy—whether that means administering gentle care for post-surgery recovery, managing chronic conditions, adapting routines for senior pets, or simply providing the love and playtime every animal deserves. Your peace of mind is my priority; I treat every pet as if they were my own. * Daily Care: Feeding, medication administration, walks/exercise, playtime, and maintaining your pet's routine. * Home Oversight: Mail collection, plant watering, light security checks, and waste cleanup. * Updates: Daily photos/texts/emails about your pet's well-being. * Specialized Services: Senior comfort care, puppy care, or handling specific temperaments/behaviors. * Emergency Response: Immediate action per your instructions, including vet transport if authorized. * Additional Options: See "Fees for Additional Services and Senior Comfort Care" section. I have a full-time organic pet supply website and love to share my time hands-on with pets of all kinds. Part time availability. I have been in property management for years approximately 18+ I have been in Rescue and rehab for pug specific rescues and all breeds for 20+ years my abilities are very broad, but I particularly am very zeroed in on what your pet needs and enjoys, and is physically enthusiastic and capable of doing. I love to combine your relationship with the enthusiasm of that special visitor when I come to care for them. I make a great teammate to your Pet Care.

About: Friends and family have relied on me to be their pet sitter for the past ten years. I work a full time job as well as a student. Extremely flexible work schedule and I live a quiet laidback lifestyle. My weekends and Friday nights are always free. I love filling my free time with physical activities so walks are great to me! Safety is my top priority, which is why I never leave pets unsupervised while outdoors, even in a fenced in yard. On walks, I am hyper vigilant about my surroundings
“Abby did an amazing job with Charlie. We would definitely recommend her and will use her again if we're in the Key Largo area. She beat me to communication every step of the way, was timely in showing up to our place to watch Charlie and sent us videos and pics throughout the day. I have nothing but good things to say about our first experience using Rover. Thank you Abby! We know Charlie was in good hands and his long nap this evening shows he had a great time while we were out.”

We can exercise your pup on or off leash depending on your preference.

“Alicia connected extremely well with our dog and took great care of him while we left town for the weekend. She was able to administer medicine successfully. She also communicated with us throughout the weekend, sending pictures and updates of how much fun they were having. She stayed the weekend to give our elderly dog extra support and took great care of the house by cleaning up after herself. We are thankful that we met and found someone who is respectful and cares so much for our dog.”
About: I’ve been a dog owner for 25+ years, primarily caring for large breeds, and I truly treat every pet like family. Over the years, I’ve also cared for friends’, neighbors’, and family members’ dogs and cats, giving them the same love, patience, and attention I give my own pets. I understand that every animal has a unique personality and needs, including seniors, anxious pets, and those requiring extra care or medication. I’m dependable, attentive, and committed to making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s playtime, walks, cuddles, or special care routines, I’m happy to provide the attention your pet deserves. I take on clients from Ocean Reef to Islamorada. I work from home with a flexible schedule, and can adjust it to meet your needs. I take on clients between Ocean Reef and Islamorada. I will watch cats in your home or schedule visits on your preferred frequency. I will feed, play or just keep your pet company while you are away.
About: I've grown up in a household with dogs and cats, parakeets and fish, guinnea pigs and chickens. I've rode horses, cared for pigs, and herded cows. I live in a housing situation where I can't have a pet so I'm looking to care for yours! I'm an avid runner so I can take your dog/s on runs if walking doesn't seem to do enough for your pup. I know some trails in the area and have an SUV to transport and take your pup somewhere new. I have experience caring for senior animals too, having a cat that lived to 17 years old myself. Previously cared for my family's dogs and cats, my sister's dog, and my neighbors' pets. I used to have a roommate with a German Shepherd and would take him to the dog beach to play fetch. He could't handle asphalt due to achy joints and the sand was much more gentle. I just moved to the Big Island and live in Kona, so even if you are here for a short vacation and need someone to watch your pet, I'm close to downtown. I currently have a very open schedule, I am starting school online so I have a lot of availability. Although I cannot host your fur baby at my home, I can travel to yours. This is a great stress free way to housesit your pet because they get to stay in a familiar place they feel comfy. If you need your pup out of the house for a couple hours, I have an SUV and a clean CDL license to take your dog for a walk. I would like to make pet care my full time job. I listen to what you need and work around that. Animals generally like their usual routines so I will keep to your schedule as possible. I do have an almost 2 year old, so I need a window mid day for nap time. Keeping pets in their own home is the most comfortable for the animal I believe. I can’t replace you, but I can bond with play if that is your animal’s style, some petting and belly rubs, a preferred treat. You are the expert, I’ll use your suggestions as to what makes your pet the most comfortable.
