“Nathalie looked after our two pups for a month and house-sat for us over the holidays. She did an excellent job, we received regular updates, both pups were very well looked after and the house also immaculate when we returned. Thank you and we definitely recommend!”

“Taylor seems to genuinely enjoy engaging with our dog and coming new ideas for activities. Taylor went out of their way and left the house cleaner than they found it and leaving us notes about the stay.”

“Chrysi was super attentive and caring for my cat. She stayed at my house over thanksgiving and made me feel at ease that my cat was in such caring hands! She was a very quick responder as well❤️❤️ will definitely book again!!”

“I needed a sitter last minute to stay at my home with my nervous dog and Jane was incredible! She sent lots of updates and was extremely communicative. I would trust Jane with Nari any time I am away.”

“Catherine took great care of my cat Oliver while I was away for about 10 days. She was reliable with feeding, gave him his oral care as needed, and spent quality time playing with him. I appreciated the regular updates and photos throughout the stay. She also helped out by watering plants and keeping the apartment tidy. As an added kindness, she offered airport pick-up and drop-off, which made things a lot easier for me. Overall, I’m grateful for her help and the care she provided to Oliver.”

“Issaya (Locket) did a wonderful job watching our little boy recently. She house-sitted for over 2 weeks and took great care & updated us often. She did a great job making him feel comfortable when we were away. She left our place clean prior to our arrival and overall we were very happy with her service. Will definitely book again.”

“Krystalynn was great with our 11 week old dachshund puppy! We were super nervous leaving him with someone for the first time but our pup warmed right up to her and he was super well behaved the entire time she was at our condo! We booked super last minute and also extended the end time while we were out and she was very accommodating. Will use again and will definitely recommend!”

“Nicola did a great job with my dog, Lola! I left Lola for the weekend and I don't think she even missed me... she sent me videos and pictures and Lola had so much fun with Nicola! I highly recommend her and I will keep trusting Nicola with Lola.”

“Tag did a wonderful job keeping our 14-year-old dog Otis calm during the July 4th fireworks, and she was super easy to communicate with. She also took great care of our apartment while staying with Otis, and we highly recommend her!”

About: I’ve grown up around dogs and love working with them. I often help neighbors and friends with walking, feeding, and basic care for their pets. I enjoy giving dogs a fun, active experience while still making sure they feel safe and relaxed. I treat every dog like they’re my own and always aim to make their day better. I have a very flexible schedule. I work early in the day, which means I have my afternoons completely free for walks, drop-ins, or pet sitting. I’m also available on weekends all day! Pet care fits easily into my routine, and I always make time to give each pet the attention they need. I always follow each client’s routine and make sure their home stays clean, safe, and comfortable for their pets. I’m very patient and gentle, especially with shy or nervous animals. I have experience caring for my own cat, who can be anxious around new people, so I understand how to move slowly, build trust, and help pets feel safe. I give regular updates to owners and treat every pet with the same love and care I give my own.
“Isabella was absolutely amazing! She went above and beyond to make sure our dogs were not just cared for, but loved while we were away. She followed every instruction perfectly, sent us daily photo updates, and always made sure they were happy and comfortable. Our German Shepherd sheds like crazy, and she was even thoughtful enough to vacuum without us asking — such a kind and considerate touch! Both of our pups adored her, and it gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. We can’t recommend Isabella enough and will definitely be booking her again in the future!”

About: Some of sweetest moments in my life have been shared with dogs 🐶. Looking forward to making more memories with new furry friends and meet more people in my neighborhood. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate yours. I would love to care for your dogs when you need to handle life. This is not a chore or just a side job for money. I am here to care for your dog and have fun in doing so. Not two dogs are alike and they love their best lives when that’s honored. Share with me your expectations and the needs of your dog. I am here to work with you.
About: I’ve been around all sorts of dogs & personalities since I was little, taking care of family & friends pets brings me joy. For some reason, dogs take a certain liking to me as I can empathize with them. I don’t see a pet, I see an innocent soul who’s ready to give love or be silly, or just want to chill. I work remotely throughout the day (laptop + WiFi is all I need) but, I have plenty of time for a set schedule to take care of pets. Having a timed schedule is important to make sure we’re all on the same page. Weekends are where I have the most flexibility of course. Moving from Tampa back to Miami, I live an active lifestyle. So I have no problem going on runs and taking your babies to the nearest dog park for some activity. We’re getting our steps today 👏🏾
About: I’ve been a dedicated dog owner for over 15 years, raising pups from their playful beginnings into their golden senior years. I understand the unique care dogs need at every stage of life — from high-energy puppy playtime to the gentle patience seniors deserve. Alongside my own dogs, I’ve provided reliable, loving dog sitting for friends, family, and clients over the years. Whether it’s belly rubs, long walks, medication routines, or just being a calm, trusted presence, I treat every dog like they’re my own. I’m currently working part-time, so I have plenty of time to care for your 4-legged family member! My schedule is very flexible, so I can make it work for whatever you need! Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’m happy to care for your pup in their own home, where they feel most secure and at ease. This helps reduce stress, especially for dogs who thrive on routine and familiar surroundings. I’m attentive to each dog’s needs, keep a close eye on their behavior, and provide regular potty breaks, playtime, and companionship throughout the day. You can count on me to follow your care instructions closely and keep you updated while you're away — so you can relax knowing your pup is in safe, loving hands.
“Andreina & Mercedes were absolutely great and provided 5 star service. Great communication with detailed updates and pictures throughout the stay. Would definitely recommend and book again. Thank you so much!”

“Phillip took great care of my pup and my home. It was spotless on my return, which was great to come home to after a late flight and way above and beyond what I expected of him. Will definitely hire again.”

About: With years of experience pet-sitting for friends' dogs and having had a beloved family pet i lived with for 5 years, I bring a deep understanding of what it takes to care for pets as if they were my own. I’ve had hands-on experience with different breeds and temperaments, ensuring each dog feels comfortable and loved in my care. Whether it's playtime, walks, or just being there for them when they need company, I’m committed to providing the same care and attention that pets receive at home and more :) I have the flexibility to dedicate my full attention to pet care. This means I’m available whenever you need, whether it’s for daily walks, extended stays, or last-minute requests. Your pet’s well-being is my top priority, and I’m here to provide consistent, reliable care whenever you need it. In my home or a pet owner's home, safety and comfort are my top priorities. I create a secure, pet-friendly environment where pets can feel at ease, ensuring that all potential hazards are out of reach. I stick to the routines that pets are accustomed to, including feeding times, walks, and playtime, to minimize stress and keep them happy. I’m also vigilant about monitoring their behavior, health, and safety at all times, ensuring they are always well-cared for. Trust is key, and I work hard to build it by treating every pet with the same love and care I’d give my own, keeping owners updated with regular check-ins and photos so they know their pets are in good hands.
