“Taylor went above and beyond! She is super communicative and responds quickly, and helped me out with some tasks around the house, including communicating with FPL! My cat has been in a bit of a shy period but she seems to have become very comfortable with Taylor, and Taylor sent me the cute pics to prove it! Thank you so much!”

I highly recommend Nalini!”

8. Steve G.
About: I'm a dog lover with over 15 years of experience caring for pups. For the past 5 years, I've been a dedicated foster parent for South Florida Dachshund Rescue, welcoming over 20+ adorable pups into my loving home! Currently, my sweet dachshund, Luna (age 10!), keeps me company, and I previously had a Jack Russell who lived a happy life to 17. Being around dogs my whole life has given me a deep understanding of their needs. I can tailor walks to your dog's energy level and personality, ensuring they get the exercise and playtime they deserve. Whether your pup is a playful dachshund or a spunky Jack Russell, I'll treat them like my own – with love, patience, and respect. I taken care of dogs of all ages and have learned the patience of gaining a dogs trust with love and affection. I am self employed and have lots of free time through out my days all week Monday thru Sunday to cater all your pet care needs. My Luna is potty trained and moves around the house as she pleases. Our apartment offers tons of space and is a very peaceful and welcoming environment for any dog.

11. Rodrigo M.
“Rod and Ros took care of my 10 year old Coker spaniel several times during his last 3 years, I will be forever grateful of all the love and kindness with the one they took care of him even when he was a bit temperamental, and required special care with his food and taking some medication.”
12. Tomi S.

15. Kelly O.
“Kelly provided an excellent care for the dog. She accurately complied with instructions and provided videos and pictures every day. She also provided a great piece of mind for myself and my wife after we met her. Great personality, and mostly a very trustworthy person. We could not have asked for a better care for the dog!”
16. Jaclyn G.
“Jaclyn is awesome. She did a wonderful job caring for our cat while we were away. She arrived on time and did a stellar job with each visit. She was even able to accommodate our normal feeding schedule (twice a day) so our cat who is on a special diet, didn’t have to have any disruption to her feedings. She easily understood everything we needed her to do and went the extra mile to make sure everything was perfect and communicated with us so we knew all was well at home. When we returned the house was perfect and our cat was so happy and relaxed. We believe she really enjoyed having Jaclyn drop-in to take care of her, and that she had a very good experience. We are so happy to have found a reliable, trustworthy and skilled sitter and we look forward to using Jaclyn again in the near future.”
17. John E.

19. Shane F.
