“Taylor was absolutely amazing! She took such great care of our cats and went above and beyond in every way, communicating regularly, keeping their space clean, and making sure they were happy and well looked after. We felt way more at ease knowing they were in such good hands. We’ll definitely be booking with her again for all of our future vacations!”


“Robert took excellent care of my puppy Piglet. He was on time, provided plenty of photos and updates, respected my house, and followed all my instructions. Highly recommend Robert for your pet sitting needs and will definitely book with him in the future. Thanks Robert!!”


About: Between my own pets and walking others’ pets, I have a high passion and love walking dogs of any size or breed! Your pet is in great and loving hands! I currently care for my two grandchildren and will be working around that schedule to walk your fur babies! I aim to get an abundance of steps in daily. You can count on me to keep your pet safe and treat as if my own with TLC. I will protect from the heat/cold and never leave them unattended.

About: I have years of hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of dogs for friends, family, and my own pets — from small, spirited Dachshunds to energetic, playful Labradors. I’ve shared my home with several dogs over the years, including my current rescue, Xuxa. My experience includes daily walks, attentive care to feeding and potty schedules, basic grooming, and reinforcing training routines. I understand that every dog has its own personality and needs, and I take pride in providing patient, loving, and reliable care for each one. I’m currently taking time off from my career as a nurse and am new to the Fort Myers area as I get settled in. I have very open availability and a flexible schedule, so I can easily work around your needs. Please feel free to reach out — I’d love to help. I’m happy to arrange a meet-and-greet so your pet can get to know me and feel comfortable. This also helps me learn their routine, behaviors, and any do’s and don’ts. If you’re short on time, no problem — I can quickly adapt to their potty, meal, play, and nap schedule. I’ll provide regular updates and keep an honest, detailed activity log during my care.

“Cassie is a wonderful sitter. The kitties love her, and so do I. She goes the extra mile to ensure everything is done correctly and to let me know if something is suspect with the kitties. I will be calling Cassie again to care for my babies.”


“Hannah was AMAZING! Not only did she take great care of my cat but she went above a beyond by getting my kitty food when she noticed we were running out. I will definitely rebook with her next time we are out of town.”


“It was so nice having Catherine stop in so I didn’t have to worry about the pups when I got scheduled for a long shift. She was on time, sent pictures, and communicated through the whole day. Thank you Catherine!”


About: My name is Dixan, animals have always been important to me. I believe that they should be cared for and treated as well as we treat ourselves. I've been around dogs and cats since I can remember; I have a three year old dog of my own, and I share responsibility in caring for two other dogs. I lived on a property that provided Corgi and mutt rescues and rehabilitation in Oklahoma City. Id help foster dogs, train basic behaviors and commands, and help find them a new home. I learned a lot about how to deal with animals there, it was a great experience. I've dogsat dogs with breathing trouble, diabetes, incontinence, physical disability, and blindness. I've sat very old dogs, and very young puppies and kittens. As far as walking, I have helped trained dogs to restrain from pulling while on leash. All training methods I have learned are positive reinforcement based methods. I'm not a fan of some of the other methods. I have a very flexible schedule. I am my own boss so I can usually work with what you’d like me to do and when you’d like me to be there. I will treat your pets like they’re my own. I’ll give them individual attention and care. I’m comfortable walking and playing with dogs of all sizes. One of my own dogs has to be crated sometimes, so I’m no stranger to that if you need it.

About: I’ve had dogs & have cared for dogs my whole life. I’ve never met a sweet happy tail that I didn’t want to pet or kiss! Their loyalty, love & faithfulness are boundless. The safety, security and companionship an animal provides is all consuming. People come & go but a dog’s love is forever. My experience with dogs is extensive as I’m regularly accustomed to playing, walking, bathing, brushing, cleaning up after & managing sometimes erratic behavior from my own two Maltese boys. Bathing, blow drying, brushing both fur & teeth & cleaning up accidents are my reality every week. I also possess the skill set to care for senior dogs with strict medication schedules, which I did regularly while in college. Apart from this; I have pet sit a litter of baby puppies over the years, beginning at 6 weeks of age. I’m currently available to work any weekdays & weekends. Monday - Friday & do not have any time restrictions. I would be available weekends as well. I’m available for dog walks & pet sit-ins. I have a fenced in yard at home for both of my dogs, but I am also very used to walking pets on a harness & leash to avoid any safety issues. I try to have a spare collar, harness, & leash in the back of my car in case anything unforeseen may arise.

“Kerri was amazing from start to finish! This is our first time hiring someone to watch our two cats while out of town and she put us right at ease. One cat has both pill and shot medication while the other is a bit skittish and need coaxing. She handled both of them perfectly. We will be using Kerri for all of our pet needs in the future.”


“Pamela arrived in the mornings just as I asked. She sent photos and asked who was who. Her genuine interest in my cats assured me they were in good hands. I will definitely request her services again. She’s good to my kitties and friendly with me. I like Pamela, she’s good people”


About: What truly sets me apart is the personal connection I build with each pet and their owner. I don’t just “watch” pets—I care for them as if they were my own. I’m highly responsive, detail-oriented, and offer regular updates with photos so you always know your pet is safe and happy. I also limit the number of pets I care for at once to ensure each one gets the individual attention they deserve. With Puppy Passion Pet Services, your pet’s well-being is never just a job—it’s my calling! Pet care isn’t a hobby or a side gig for me—this is my full-time business and passion. My entire daily routine is built around providing the best care for the pets I look after. From morning walks to evening playtime, I’m fully dedicated to their well-being. Since this is my primary focus, I offer flexible scheduling, quick communication. I have a fenced back yard for your babies to run around in, and 1 small dogs for them to play with. Whether day or night your babies will be well loved and cared for. We give the dogs bottle water.

“Nicole did a wonderful job taking care of our cats while we were traveling for a few days. She clearly adores cats, and spared no effort to make sure they were loved & well cared for. We have some tricky care requirements, but she was able to handle them with grace. We look forward to working with her again!”


“Beth is amazing, our communication was great, she perfectly follow all my requests. Very professional! She made me feel safe and secure!!! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED HER… ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ a huge thanks from me, kyra and Minnie Pearl?”
