“I am so grateful to have found such a wonderful dog sitter! My puppy is like my baby, so finding someone I could trust was very important to me. From the moment they met, my pup felt comfortable and even gives her kisses—which says a lot! I feel completely at ease knowing he’s in safe, loving hands. She provides the best quality of care, always sends me pictures, and responds quickly to any messages. I couldn’t ask for more!”


“We cannot say kinder things about Catherine, she truly is the dog fairy godmother! We are so happy to have someone locally to watch our two furbabies. She kept our girls safe and happy while we were away and we could not ask for anything more.”


“Dawn has stayed in our home to watch our two kitties multiple times in the past, and did an amazing job. This last trip she watched our dog, Baloo, as well and she was fabulous as always! The care and consideration she’s gives for our animals, and home, I truly amazing. And it makes going away much less stressful.”


“Peggy was wonderful with our dog. He has high anxiety and is blind and she was so good with him. She walked him multiple times, sent updates, was reliable and communicated. I highly recommend Peggy, she is kind and very responsible. I appreciated all the messages, pictures and videos of him.”


“We booked Romana for back to back weeks of house/dog sitting in November and I cannot say enough good things about our experience. Romana treats my baby like her own and shows him so much love and affection (which he gives right back to her in the form of snuggles and kisses)! She's like his second mom now :)”


“Marta is a great pet sitter. She came over two times before I actually needed her to get acquainted with my pets. She did everything that was expected and even sent us pictures while we were away. I would definitely use Marta again.”



“Camille was absolutely outstanding as our dog sitter. With three Frenchies and a Chihuahua under her care for almost a week, she exceeded all expectations. When our elderly Chihuahua suffered a stroke in our absence, Camille's exceptional care and attention ensured he was well looked after until we were able to get home. We are immensely grateful for her dedication and highly recommend her to anyone in need of a truly exceptional dog sitter. Thank you, Camille, for your unwavering commitment to our pups' well-being.”


“Robin is fabulous. She sent pictures daily and took very good care of my special needs dog. It felt to not worry about my baby while I was on vacation.”


“Christina was the best pet sitter that we ever had! It was obvious from our first meeting that she is a caring and conscientious person. She went above and beyond in handling all of the special needs of our elderly pets. She also sent us photos and short videos of our pets everyday! I highly recommend Christina as a pet sitter! She is the best! -Karin & Lana”


About: Hi, I’m Kennedy! I’ve cared for pets in all kinds of homes, from cozy cabins in Montana to sunny apartments here in Florida. Over the years, I’ve fostered dogs of all ages and personalities, from bouncy puppies to gentle seniors, so I’m comfortable with a wide range of needs and temperaments. I treat every pet like they’re my own, giving them plenty of love, attention, and care while keeping their routines consistent. Whether it’s long walks, belly rubs, or just hanging out together, I’m here to make sure they feel safe and happy while you’re away. I’m also experienced with house sitting, so you can trust that your home will be looked after just as carefully as your pets. If you’re looking for a reliable sitter who will treat your pets like family, I’d love to connect! Pet care is part of my everyday life, I’ve fostered for years, so caring for animals is second nature to me. My schedule is flexible, allowing me to give pets regular walks, playtime, and attention throughout the day. Whether it’s morning cuddles, midday walks, or evening wind-downs, I make sure each pet feels loved and cared for. I keep pets safe, happy, and comfortable by following their usual routines and giving them plenty of love and attention. In your home, I respect your space and keep doors and gates secure. In my home, I provide a cozy spot, fresh water, and a safe environment free from hazards. You’ll always get updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pets are in good hands.

About: I’m a lifelong dog lover with hands-on experience caring for a variety of breeds — from energetic retrievers and beagles to strong-willed American bulldogs, and now, two playful French bulldogs. I’ve worked closely with professional dog trainers for each of my dogs, and I’m so grateful for that guidance. It’s taught me how to better understand dogs and communicate with them in a calm, consistent way. Over the years, I’ve learned how to adjust to each dog’s unique personality — whether they’re full of energy or need a little extra patience. My friends are always surprised at how quickly their dogs connect with me, even the shy or nervous ones. I love earning a dog’s trust and making them feel safe, seen, and cared for. Your pup will be treated like family, with plenty of attention, affection, and care tailored just for them. As an entrepreneur, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to prioritize pet care throughout my day. Whether it’s morning walks, mid-day playtime, or sticking to a consistent feeding and potty routine, I’m able to give dogs the time and attention they need to feel comfortable and cared for. Whether I’m caring for your dog in my home or yours, their safety and comfort always come first. I follow any routines or guidelines you provide closely — from feeding schedules and crate time to walk preferences and training cues. Consistency helps dogs feel secure, and I do everything I can to make sure they feel right at home. In my own home, I keep a clean, dog-friendly environment with secure spaces for play and rest. I’m always mindful of what’s within reach and make sure all dogs are supervised during interactions, walks, and mealtimes. When I’m in a client’s home, I treat it with the same care and respect I give my own. I make sure your pup is comfortable in their familiar space and stick to your instructions so there’s no added stress for them — or you. I also check in regularly with updates and photos so you can feel confident your dog is happy, safe, and in good hands.


“This was my first time using the app and was nervous leaving my babies and having someone stay at my home without knowing them. I searched through many profiles and immediately felt at ease with Jaclyn, she was responsive and proactive. We had a meet and greet and Maia instantly came to her and settled on Jaclyn’s lap while we talked logistics. I was sold when Jaclyn naturally just started petting her and said to both my pups, we’re going to have a good time together. I felt at ease leaving them with Jaclyn, she has a natural calming energy. During her time with my pups she was communicative and followed instructions perfectly. Both my boyfriend and I were pleasantly surprised to find the home exactly as we left it. I highly recommend Jacklyn and will most definitely work with her in the future.”


“New to Wilton Manors and found Cory. I felt comfortable in our meet and greet. The dogs were well taken care of in spite of my Sr having some mobility issues. I was kept informed and up to date on them both. Will use again him again.”
