Cat Sitting in South Beach

“Camille was a god send for our little family!! We have a 17 yr old cat with hyperthyroidism and kidney disease and a 6 yr old cat with food allergies…who we haven’t left in three years because of the time and effort necessary to meet their needs. I was pleasantly surprised by how comfortable I was leaving our babies with Camille. She was truly invested in providing the best care possible. She was also very detail oriented (e.g., taking notes, following lengthy instructions), responsive, and communicative throughout her time with us. Camille went above and beyond by administering numerous medicines, conducting around the clock feedings, etc. She was so good to our cats that I think they may have grown to prefer her company over ours. You can’t ask for a more attentive, compassionate, and thoughtful caregiver than Camille. Booking her services will ensure a stress free time away from home. We’ve already requested her return!”

“Nancy L. is a wonderful Pet Sitter. She fell in love with my young cat, Walter, and played with him when she checked on him. My older cat was too shy to come out, but both cats were well cared for. Plus, she takes great photographs!”

“I have known Wendy for over 60 years. She was literally raised at a veterinary clinic as it was attached to the house where she lived. The home where she grew up was always shared with a dog or three and a cat or two. Wendy as an independent adult, has always lived with a dog who was never just a pet, but an equal member of the household. Each pup was always included in all family activities. Every time Wendy adopted a new best friend, we all felt tremendous joy. It was as if the new pup had just won the lottery! Wendy has never forced her pup to take the backseat for anyone. Her pets are family and treated accordingly. Front seat passengers know her pup is going to ride on their lap! All dogs should be so lucky!”

“Melanie was fantastic! She spent time with my kitties, cuddled, played with them AND took great care of them. She checked in with me every night and even sent pictures of the them so I knew they were happy. Thank you, Melanie❣??”

“Paula was such a great dog sitter for me. I have Parkinson’s and I was no longer able to walk my dogs. She would take them on walks around the neighborhood/to parks/dog approved areas and etc. The dogs loved her and I’m very grateful for her.”

“Bernadette is a dogs best friend! She’s the perfect running buddy, she gives the best cuddles, and will care for your pup like they are her own. She’s watched two of my pups and I’m pretty sure they would have picked her over me at the end of the day. You couldn’t find a better dog sitter! I highly recommend.”

About: I’ve loved animals since I can remember, as soon as I could I started at our local animal shelter, then I started pet sitting for family and friends. I was the go to pet sitter for when they were out on vacation and it was an honor every time! My availability is Tuesday through Saturday, and I’m free all day anytime. I have the time to take care of your pets needs when they need it! For care in my home I have a medium/small sized dog they can socialize with as well as walks every hour. I have all the free time for animals, their needs are important to me!

About: I've owned and cared for animals, from horses and sheep to dogs and snakes, since childhood. Experience in senior care, puppy training, and special dietary needs. I work from home and shape my work time and lifestyle around being able to stay active periodically throughout the day. The ability to essentially work from anywhere that has wifi grants me the flexibility to be present with the animals I my care. Outdoor play time and exercise, companionship, and daily hygiene and grooming. I also have the option for separate feeding spaces when boarding pets with food aggression.

“Morgan is an incredibly caring, loving, attentive and responsible person. She is wonderful with my kitties! Even my shy girl has taken to Morgan. Morgan loves the interaction and is dedicated to my kitties happiness, routine, and playtime! She really can read their minds! They love her dearly! I highly recommend Morgan - she shows care, concern, reliability, and complete dedication to my kitties during her entire stay. She adheres to feeding and medication schedules as needed - and is just an all around genuine great person. I welcome her to take care of my babies anytime! Thank you Morgan 😊”

“Clover is the best pet sitter we’ve ever had, and an added bonus of being the nicest person ever. We have used her several times to watch our two dogs, three cats, multiple reptiles, and fish. I would definitely recommend using her, your pets will thank you!”

“Kelly is truly amazing at taming our cats. we have 3 cats and 2 are really scaredy cats. Kelly managed to get them out from under our bed on the first day. After the first day we were able to feel all the love Kelly gave our cats through all the photos she sent us daily. It really made us feel great and not to worry about our babies during our trip. Kelly is a true cat whisperer.”

About: I've had Alaskan Malamutes since I was born, and have a lot of experience taking care of large dogs because of this. I can handle a dog that pulls on the leash, and have enough of an authoritative voice to get their attention and keep it. I also have 5 cats currently, two of which have strict dietary and health needs. I am capable of giving medications, as well as keeping pet foods separate from other pets if need be. I work and have school all day Monday-Wednesday every week, but I will be done with classes around 12pm on Thursdays, so I am available for overnight pet sitting gigs Thursday-Sunday. Any dog walking or pet check ins I will also be available for during that time. I always try to make sure that I get well acquainted and comfortable with each pet, and know their needs ahead of time. With my cats I make sure they get all of their medications mornings and nights, and are fed regularly. The cat boxes are changed once a day, and I play with them whenever they are in the mood. With dogs I will walk them once or twice a day depending on their activity level, and make sure to leave plenty of time to play throughout the day.

“Hard not to gush immediately about Dylan! My labradoodle just loves him. Dylan is a thoughtful and patient, conscientious, kind hearted animal lover. He shows up on time and pays attention to the details and always makes sure my dog is safe and well cared for. Dylan is sure to have your dogs’ tail wagging in no time!”

“Ivan has taken care of my pet numerous times and he always goes above and beyond. I’m very satisfied with his level of care! Book him and you won’t regret it!!!!”

“Nena has been wonderful watching and grooming my dog Sisko. She is a 7 year old Saint Bernard and is always excited for time with Nena. Nena has been helping me for 2 years and I couldn’t ask for a better person!”

About: I’ve been petsitting for over 20 years. I can care for your babies as if they are mine. Cats, dogs, birds, turtles, etc. thank you! I am available for up to two drop ins per day seven days a week. I usually stay 20-45 minutes per visit to love on and take care of your pets. We have a wooded home with no fences. We’re not close to to a road. We have one neighbor. Any runners would probably not do well here

About: I am new to Rover through friends and other sites have now done many housesits with dogs, cats, chickens, hamsters, and more! For me, there is nothing better than getting to spend the day between online work sessions throwing a ball or going for a walk around to explore with the best canine companion. I have lots of experience adjusting to different dogs' routines. I mostly have experience with smaller dogs, though have cared for the occasional one bigger dog at a time. I try to connect with each animal under my care and make sure they are comfortable, attended to, and loved. I have raised my own dog, Violet, from Day 1, so I am experienced with puppy care. I have also cared for several senior dogs and really love taking the extra time with them, whether a slower walk, attention to a skin condition, or extra attention to food and medication. I work online teaching literature and creative writing, so I am around all day, taking the occasional few-hour trip out to run errands or go to appointments. I have lots of flexibility to adjust to any dog's usual schedule and make sure they have attention and my presence. I have always worked hard at leaving a light footprint when I housesit. I am very aware of leaving things how I found them and honoring each person's space. And I follow that for pets as well -- sensing into their routines and habits and fitting myself into that flow. I especially appreciate any written instructions or routines to refer back to and will make sure I am carrying out each person and animal's expectations. I also make sure to send regular photos and updates and will promptly share any concerns or questions. For now, I'm available for drop-in visits or walks and also for housesitting, but only for owners and pets who would be open to having another dog -- my 26lb dog Violet -- in their home. She has been on many housesits and does well with animals of all kinds. I make sure to ease them into the situation and spend time with each dog separately. Violet basically ignores cats, so we would be open to any dog-tolerating felines.

“Brian was great. Very casual and flexible. He has a great house with lots of space for dog naps. We felt safe and were able to enjoy our day out knowing that our doggies were well cared for.”

“Haley loves animals, so she’s a natural with all pets. She was kind and patient to my older dog, Buddy. He doesn’t usually play much, but she got him to actually play with her! He requires special food which she responsibly handled with no problems. I would definitely recommend Haley to take care of your fur baby!”

“Morgan is the most conscientious pet owner/animal lover that I know! She treats every dog and cat as if they were her own. Pretty sure my cat Mort loves her more than he does me. And my mom trusts no one but Morgan to stay with her cat Beni when she takes multi-day trips. Morgan also sends pics and videos to you while you’re away, which are very comforting to receive😊 In short, I wouldn’t hire anyone else, my family won’t hire anyone else, and my neighbors gush over how happy their dogs are when Morgan cares for them! If you’re seeking someone to truly CARE for your beloved pet, Morgan is available, hire her, you’ll be so happy you did!”
