About: Hey there! My name’s Kyle, and I’m a nursing student living here in Key Largo. I own a property with multiple units and a fenced yard/backyard. I own a small, male Shiba Inu! In general, I’ve owned and taken care of dogs since I was 10! (So just a little over 18 years as of 2025) I love dogs and haven’t gone very long without a canine companion in my life. That being said, I have plenty of first-hand experience with many dogs from volunteering, my personal life, and from informing myself whenever available. I’m very flexible and will make sure all of your and your pet pals’ needs are met. I am currently working DoorDash on the side, so I will be in/out of the house but have the ability to immediately return at a moments notice and will never be too far from the home. I am already taking care of my own dog for walks, potty breaks, etc, so most pets will be following the same routine unless requested otherwise or are young and need constant supervision. My home is large enough to care for dogs of all sizes, including a property with a fenced in yard and backyard, as well as a puppy-proof room available to house young kittens and puppies.

“What a great experience we had with Beth. Our kitties were happy as can be after five days away and she gave us consistent updates and photos the whole time.”

About: I’ve been a dog owner for 25+ years, primarily caring for large breeds, and I truly treat every pet like family. Over the years, I’ve also cared for friends’, neighbors’, and family members’ dogs and cats, giving them the same love, patience, and attention I give my own pets. I understand that every animal has a unique personality and needs, including seniors, anxious pets, and those requiring extra care or medication. I’m dependable, attentive, and committed to making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s playtime, walks, cuddles, or special care routines, I’m happy to provide the attention your pet deserves. I work from home with a flexible schedule, and can adjust it to meet your needs. I take on clients between Ocean Reef and Islamorada. I will watch cats in your home or schedule visits on your preferred frequency. I will feed, play or just keep your pet company while you are away.

About: With over 20 years of hands-on experience in animal rescue and rehabilitation, I have devoted my life to the health, happiness, and comfort of pets of all kinds—from tiny bugs and birds to beloved dogs and everything in between. As a lifelong dog owner and passionate advocate for animals big and small, I specialize in at-home pet sitting that goes far beyond basic care. My background includes providing tailored rehabilitative support for a wide range of ailments, ensuring every pet receives attentive, knowledgeable attention that prioritizes their individual needs and well-being. When you entrust your furry (or feathered, or scaly) family member to me, you can rest easy knowing they’re in the hands of someone who truly understands and loves animals deeply. I focus 100% on their physical recovery, emotional comfort, and daily joy—whether that means administering gentle care for post-surgery recovery, managing chronic conditions, adapting routines for senior pets, or simply providing the love and playtime every animal deserves. Your peace of mind is my priority; I treat every pet as if they were my own. * Daily Care: Feeding, medication administration, walks/exercise, playtime, and maintaining your pet's routine. * Home Oversight: Mail collection, plant watering, light security checks, and waste cleanup. * Updates: Daily photos/texts/emails about your pet's well-being. * Specialized Services: Senior comfort care, puppy care, or handling specific temperaments/behaviors. * Emergency Response: Immediate action per your instructions, including vet transport if authorized. * Additional Options: See "Fees for Additional Services and Senior Comfort Care" section. I have a full-time organic pet supply website and love to share my time hands-on with pets of all kinds. Part time availability. I have been in property management for years approximately 18+ I have been in Rescue and rehab for pug specific rescues and all breeds for 20+ years my abilities are very broad, but I particularly am very zeroed in on what your pet needs and enjoys, and is physically enthusiastic and capable of doing. I love to combine your relationship with the enthusiasm of that special visitor when I come to care for them. I make a great teammate to your Pet Care.

About: Friends and family have relied on me to be their pet sitter for the past ten years. I work a full time job as well as a student. Extremely flexible work schedule and I live a quiet laidback lifestyle. My weekends and Friday nights are always free. I love filling my free time with physical activities so walks are great to me! Safety is my top priority, which is why I never leave pets unsupervised while outdoors, even in a fenced in yard. On walks, I am hyper vigilant about my surroundings

About: I’ve lived with animals my entire life. Even when I moved away from home for college I would fill my free time with fostering dogs and cats. I have some prior experience providing basic training to dogs and I have experience administering multiple types of medication. I’m currently working full time but will be transitioning into my PhD in the fall. Currently, I cannot house anyone in my home but I am free for very early morning and late afternoon walks and check ins! I care for your pets as if they were my pets. I can adapt to needs and am happy to give as much enrichment, love, and attention as you and your pet desire!

About: I have cared for my own and others’ pets for over 35 years—large and small dogs, different kinds of cats, birds, hamsters, bearded dragons, even fish. I have the most experience with dogs – I’ve loved and owned dogs since I was a young girl. Most recently I volunteered with and fostered dogs (& one kitten) for Detroit Dog Rescue for 8 years, which only stopped because I moved away. I have fostered and trained puppies, young to mid-age rescues, and also adjusted as my dog became a senior. I can walk your dog, have play time in a yard or a park, just have some chill time, and I can incorporate some enrichment to get them thinking and busy if you would like. I am also an expert at administering medicine with dogs and don’t mind doing this. I am also trained in Fear Free® pet care which focuses on behavior and body language with strategies to lower stress and anxiety in pets. I have vast experience with fearful and reactive dogs, owning one and fostering a few myself. My approach is patient and never pushy, letting the pet choose how they would like to interact, which could be none at all for some. I used Rover for many, many years for my pittie girl Penelope and understand the importance of clear communication, doing what the client wants, being on time, etc. I am excited to meet your pet and take care of them the way you would like. I am currently working part-time at a dive shop and have a bit of free time until we get busier. If I work, it can be any day of the week with weekends more busy than during the week. I can have a morning or afternoon shift or both. Mornings are 7am until noon and afternoons are 1115 to close to 4pm. I can travel directly to work to and from your home in the morning and afternoon. I can do drop-ins, longer stays, or overnights. I will make sure your pets are safe and secure in the yard when we are out there. I can easily crate them as well. I will do as you wish in your home.

“Mackinzey has been great with our dog! She is very easy to communicate with, always on time, and sends us great pictures after her check ins!”

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities for 30 years. I make sure every furry friend feels happy, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I work from home, so your dog will have plenty of supervision and attention throughout the day. I send photo updates so you know how they’re doing. I provide a calm and secure environment. I’ll treat your dog like family — with plenty of walks, playtime, and cuddles. I carefully follow instructions regarding feeding, medication, exercise, and routines to ensure consistency and reduce stress.

About: I've never not had at least one dog or cat growing up. Experience with caring for many types of dogs and cats within all ages and sizes. I am currently working as a freelancer so I have plenty of time to care for your pets on which ever days and times you need. I can easily crate dogs if needed. Can follow a set feeding schedule or free feed pets. I am used to having high energy dogs and cats that want to play all the time so can definitely entertain them with lots of toys, walks and company.

About: I have home with fenced in clean yard. I am good with training and gentle with puppies and senior doggies. Lots of love!! Clean home! I am retired stay home and have plenty of time for caring for little dogs. I keep my home and yard very clean and give doggies love and attention. I live one story home no stairs to climb. I have one small dog and a senior cat of my own that get along with other dogs.

About: Recently moved back to Islamorada. 6 years I used to work as a Kennel Attendant, and Groomer's Assistant. Supervising and cleaning up after dogs big and small, While I know the job can sometimes be challenging, I also know how rewarding it can be. I walk daily on my own so exercise and being active would be no problem to incorporate, I have experience working with even the biggest of dogs and letting them know who's Alpha. I am sensitive to dogs needs regarding hot pavement, and would work to do my best to keep them in shaded or softer areas for walking. Since I worked as an attendant and bather, a simple bath and brush would be easy to arrange if shampoo and towels are available and your pet feels safe having a stranger do it. I would love being able to provide that little extra to make your dog feel like a personal client and special friend. I work a rather unpredictable schedule, but often have off weekends, where I'm home almost the entirety of the day if you check with me I can best let you know if I can host your pup. I care for a very very nice dog named Finley who would love a friend to hang out with, we have an outdoor porch and a big grassy yard, and I stay close by, playing with toys between chores or cuddling while watching a movie. There are also parks around if you feel comfortable having your pup come with me on a longer walk or to socialize with others. I am looking for more even tempered dogs to host but good playful energy is welcomed if they get along with others.

“We took a last minute day trip & was in need of someone to help with our pups. Caitlin was an absolute treasure! She came in the morning to meet our babies & came back to let them out and feed them! We are so grateful. Thank you so much, Caitlin!”

Andrea N.

“Thank you so much for the love and attention you showed my puppy.”

About: Hello! Are you looking for an experienced pet sitter/ walker? well I’m that person! I’ve work with a variety of different animals, in ERs, surgery, internal medicine and in zoos and aquariums as a licensed vet tech. I am the friend everyone calls when they need animal advise or help. I would love to be able to care for your pets as well. Sorry I don’t book more than 2 months ahead of time. Let me know if you need a last minute walk or pet sit and I’d be happy to see if I can help. I currently have a flexible schedule but do work shifts that are 6-8 hours long. I do not provide constant care, I will only be able to care for dogs that can be left alone for at least 6 hours. Let’s chat and figure out what you need and how I can help you and your pets! I can not currently watch dogs in my own home but am able to come stay with them in yours. I can stay overnight and be there for them or come for long visits throughout the day which is better for you and them.

“Chartotte (my pitt) and I were thrilled with the care given by Andrea and Bill. They cared for my Charlotte for 14 days over the holidays. They sent me pictures and updates of my baby with each visit. Andrea and Bill were very responsible and took 'above and beyond' the call of duty precautions to make sure Charlotte was safe. I would highly recommend this couple.”
