“I can’t recommend Any enough! She took care of my two large senior huskies with such care and dedication during her drop-in visits. From the start, it was clear she genuinely loves animals and has a special way with dogs. My huskies absolutely adored her!! She went above and beyond to make sure they were comfortable and happy while I was away. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!”

“Highly recommend! Jennifer is an ideal cat sitter. She took great care of our little feline friend. Excellent communicator, really enjoyed the pictures she sent.

Definitely a true animal lover who is generous and does more than the minimum to make sure everything is just right!”

His dedication is evident in the way he often extends his stay beyond the agreed-upon hours, ensuring Layla receives continuous care and attention.

His professionalism, reliability, and genuine care for animals make him a great choice for any pet owner. I always return home to find my puppy happy and well-cared for, thanks to Scott's attentive service.

About: Hi There! Im new to miami with 2-years rover experience coming from NYC! I enjoy being active and going on long walks now that we live in the beautiful sunshine! I live alone with my 3 year oLd Jack Russell Beagle Mix, Clyde. I work mostly from home with occasional appointments and meetings that take me out for 1-2 hours a day. The rest i spend working and staying pleasantly distracted by my dog! I have sitting, checkin, and walking experience and have a car so I can easily get around town. I have also worked with dogs with food restrictions and disabilities, so I am more than ready to work with you to ensure your pups needs are met, and most importantly, has a great stay-cation from their humans!
About: Most of my dog experience comes from caring for my own pup and the dogs of family and friends. Somewhere along the way, I became the unofficial dog sitter for my college friends who would impulsively adopt dogs between semesters. My childhood dog, Tyler, has since passed, but I still have plenty of love (and belly rubs) to give. I’ve cared for puppies, small dogs, big dogs, and even disabled dogs, and I always follow owner instructions to the letter. Above all, I just love animals and treat every dog like they’re my own. I’m currently completing my M.A. online, and with a full time school schedule, it’s hard to find traditional work that fits around my classes. Pet care, however, works perfectly with my schedule. Whether your pet is staying with me or I’m visiting your home, communication is key. I always check in with owners about any specific needs; diet, exercise, medication, crate time, you name it. As cliché as it sounds, I treat every pet like my own while following your instructions exactly. And if you’re feeling a little nervous about me being in your home, don’t worry; odds are I’m even more nervous about being in someone else’s.
About: Ive have taken care of dogs all my life; friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets. I will take care of your puppy as it is my own puppy. Im currently working from home, so i'll have plenty of time to play with your pups! Im available for boarding on weekdays and weekends whenever you need me. I live in an apartment with a fence outside area in a save neighborhood for plenty of walks. I have a trained GSD of 6 years that will be a playful company for your puppy too.
“Emily was awesome! She saved me with a last minute booking and took great care of my animals. Easy communication and spent extra time keeping them company. Highly recommend!”

Jaki G.
“Jaki has demonstrated over the many years that I have known her that she is really wonderful with dogs. I first saw this in college- my house had a dog and when we were away for a soccer game, we entrusted Jaki to look after our dog, Winston. In the years since then, I have hung out with Jaki numerous times while she was either walking or dog sitting. She has shown that she is very caring, alert, intuitive and capable when it comes to looking after dogs both big and small, hyper and calm. As aforementioned, I have trusted Jaki to look after my dog in the past and would 100% trust her to look after my dog in the future!”
