About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with over 12 years of experience dog walking and pet sitting for neighbors, friends, and families in my community. I’ve also had two Boston Terriers of my own, so I know firsthand how much pets become part of the family. I’ve cared for dogs of different sizes, ages, and personalities and am comfortable with walks, feeding, playtime, and keeping pets company while their owners are away. I’m reliable, responsible, active, and attentive, and I’m always happy to follow your pet’s normal routine and any special instructions. My goal is to make sure your pet is safe, comfortable, and gets plenty of attention while they’re in my care. I’d love the chance to meet you and your pet! I’m currently in medical school, so my rotation schedule can vary from week to week, but I’m often free throughout the week. I’m especially available in the evenings and on weekends, and I’m happy to work around your pet’s schedule whenever I can! I always try to keep pets as close to their normal routine as possible so they feel comfortable and relaxed. In a client’s home, I carefully follow their instructions for feeding, walks, bathroom breaks, medications if needed, and playtime. I also make sure they get plenty of attention and companionship while keeping the home clean and secure. With 12+ years of pet-sitting experience and two Boston Terriers of my own, I’m comfortable adapting to each pet’s individual personality and needs.

About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of dogs since I was 11. I grew up in Coral Gables, walking our family dog as soon as I was old enough to hold the leash. I’ve since helped family and friends with their own pets as needed. During the pandemic I was a foster mom for kittens that needed round-the -clock care, which eventually led to me adopting my cat, Milo. He came to me as a foster who was terrified of people. He’s six years old now, and though he’s slow to trust others, he seems to love me so I must’ve done something right! I’m available throughout the day as needed. Just send me a message and we can coordinate a time that works best for you and your pet! Having lived in the Gables practically all my life, I know all the best place to take your dog on a walk! I’m also very familiar with Coconut Grove and South Miami. When it comes to cats, I’ve been successfully taking care of my cat, Milo, since I adopted him as a kitten six years ago. I’ll always make sure your dog has had a wonderful, safe walk around the neighborhood. If it’s a drop-in visit for a dog or cat, I’ll make sure to play with them and assure they’re comfortable and have everything they need. I can also administer oral or topical medication for dogs and cats, such as pills or ointments if needed.
About: I’ve taken care of various dog breeds and exotic pets since I was a child. I am well-versed in pet care and will love your animal like it is my own baby! I work remotely from home so I will be home all day with your baby and can walk it 4+ times a day or as often as needed. I have a clean, safe apartment with plenty of room for large dogs. I have 2 sweet Standard Poodles who are very friendly and like to sleep on the couch and bed.
About: "I love animals—I really do! I have had dogs my entire adult life. I am very outgoing and friendly, and the messy parts of pet ownership (dirt, smells, etc.) don't bother me at all. I am also very patient and understanding; being a single mother to two teens since they were young has certainly prepared me for anything! I graduated from UW and spent over 20 years in corporate America, but now I am excited to find a new path working with animals. I am always available by phone or text, and I am happy to highly attentive 'helicopter' hoomans, I'm here to help! I'm currently wide open to care for your pup. I am in a career transition and what better way than to hang out with fluffy cute animals? I live in a very dog friendly building. I have a fence courtyard where Ollie (my dog) hands out and we also have a dog park right outside. I also have a crate in my apt that Ollie laughs when I tell him he needs to go in there.
“Pia was amazing! She was super attentive, caring, and really made sure my dogs was well taken care of. She kept me informed every step of the way, which was so reassuring. You can tell she truly loves animals. I highly recommend her to anyone who needs a great dog sitter!"”
“Gabi has been great! We started using her after our previous dog walker had a medical condition and was no longer able to walk our dog. Our yellow lab, Madi, enjoys her walks with gabi when we are at work. Gabi is communicative and attentive. We highly recommend her!”
About: I've always had a special love for animals! Throughout high school, I worked at a dog grooming salon, where I gained hands-on experience working with dogs of different breeds, sizes, and personalities. Over the years, I've also been the go-to person for family and friends whenever they need someone they trust to care for their pets. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone who will treat your furry family member with the same love, patience, and attention you would. Whether it's walks, playtime, feeding, or simply keeping your pet company, my goal is to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away! I'm responsible, attentive, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I look forward to meeting your furry family members! 🐾💕 I currently have a very flexible schedule and plenty of availability to dedicate to caring for your furry family members! Whether it's walks, drop-in visits, playtime, or simply keeping your pet company, I'm happy to work around their routine and individual needs. I genuinely love spending time with animals and enjoy making sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. I'm available throughout the week and on weekends, and I'm always happy to discuss what works best for you and your pet! 🐾 I've always said that in another life, I would've gone to veterinary school because my love for animals runs so deep! My own dog, Hazel, is truly my baby, and I treat her like family. Our days are filled with playtime, training sessions with treats, outdoor exercise, walks to explore new scents, car rides, cuddles, and even the occasional doggy ice cream date! I also love making little dog-themed crafts and finding creative ways to keep her happy and engaged. I believe every pet deserves that same level of love, patience, and attention. When caring for your furry family member, I'll always prioritize their safety, comfort, and individual routine. I'll follow your instructions closely, respect your home, and make sure your pet receives plenty of affection, enrichment, and exercise suited to their needs. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else, and my goal is to give you peace of mind knowing they're being cared for like one of my own. 🐾💕

“Mariya and her partner gave me a lot of confidence from the start. It was their first time walking my dogs, and I’ll definitely be calling them again. My dogs are big and sometimes unpredictable around other dogs or if they see a cat, so I really appreciated how well everything went. I’m very happy with the experience and will absolutely reach out again. Thank you!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - South Miami
We feel incredibly lucky to have found such a wonderful and dependable dog walker. He is punctual, communicates well, and most importantly, genuinely cares about our dog. Obi is always happy to see him, which says everything! He takes his responsibilities seriously and can be counted on to do what he says he will do without needing to be reminded or supervised. What stands out most is his character. He is respectful, kind, conscientious, and dependable—qualities that will serve him well in whatever he chooses to pursue in the future. Any college, employer, or organization would be fortunate to have someone with his work ethic and sense of responsibility. We recommend him wholeheartedly and without hesitation. He has been an absolute pleasure to work with.
Capuchine was amazing!! She was very attentive towards my dog Indigo and made sure to send me pictures and updates for the walk. Indigo loved her and she made sure to spend time with him after the walk, which I appreciated. I will be using her for future walks and would definitely recommend her for any services you would need for your pets!!
Highly recommend! She did a fantastic job looking after Luna during a long day. She followed every instruction perfectly, from finding the key hidden by the blue gnome to being patient with Luna’s fears of elevators and ceramic floors. She was careful to use the door with only two stairs and made sure Luna got her treat sticks after the walk. It was such a relief knowing Luna was in such capable and observant hands!
