“Very happy and satisfied with the care she gave my pet. I would recommend her to anyone whose is looking for a really good pet caregiver. I will use her services again in the near future.”
About: Social animal lover, small dog owner, experienced pet caregiver, and current rescue volunteer, I provide dependable, compassionate care for pets of all personalities and needs. I understand that pets are family, and I treat each one with patience, attentiveness, and genuine affection so they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. My two-hour visits are structured as drop-ins tailored to your pet’s routine and can include feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and companionship. My goal is always to reduce stress for both pets and owners by providing calm, consistent care you can trust. (Service radius 4-5m) I also offer in-home (my home) boarding on a limited basis when it’s the right fit for your pet. My home is in a quiet community with a fenced yard, and I focus on creating a peaceful, comforting environment where animals can relax and feel secure. I’m unable to offer housesitting in your home at this time. My bond with animals began early in life and has stayed with me ever since. From caring for cats and dogs of my own to volunteering with local shelters. If you’re looking for someone responsible, nurturing, and truly devoted to animals, I would be honored to care for your pet like family. Retired and available to love up all the furry friends. I have a reliable vehicle. I also have a pet booster seat for the smaller pets, recognizing the importance of their inability to have the same view as the larger dogs. Did you know? Small dogs can get vertigo in the back seat or in a lower view? It’s true! Looking forward to meeting your furry loves. Caring for pets in a client’s home is a very trusting requirement I do not take lightly. Every client deserves their furry child cared for and overall expectations for their sweet furry child exceptional. Every pet is unique in their wants and needs are important, getting to know pet parents helps aid in visual cues by both the owner and the pet upon that first meeting as well as interactions thereafter. I am also a pet portrait photographer and if your pet is photographed I will offer this as a complementary service to my current availability. I care for my pets very seriously. I have one dog who was rescued from a puppy mill, who is a special-needs pet and does require Special food due to allergies and has enjoyed a life of love, affection, medical care, compassion, and kindness throughout his 11 years. I have a lovely fenced in yard that allows for the furry friends to relax, play or nap in the shade. I have multiple pet beds and bowls available.
“We needed some boarding for our 2 golden-doodles for a couple of nights while we were visiting the Coca Beach/Cape Canaveral/Merritt Island area. Mia had availability and checked all the boxes for us...worked from home, fenced back yard, and 2 of her own pups for playtime with our own. Mia was very flexiable and provided a safe, loving environment for Cooper and Murphy! Thank you very much Mia! As well to ROVER.COM. My wife and I have used this service several times when we travel for vacations or short trips and have had great positive experiences! Highly recommend Mia and Rover.com”

About: I have taken care of cats and dogs my whole life and I will care for yours as if they were my own! I have 4 cats myself, one of which is 16 years old! I work a night shift Monday through Thursday but I am usually free early in the afternoon on those weekdays and free all day Friday and on the weekends! I am more than happy to provide daily feedings, walks and playtime for your pup or kitty. If other services are required please ask, and I will see if it’s something within my abilities!

About: Aside from referencing my overall experience, I hold a special place in my heart for our often misunderstood feline friends. I have two cats of my own whom I love and care for dearly. Both have very different personalities and expectations from me. I love them all the same and I feel I have a good read on cats as well as dogs.
“Jaya did an amazing job! We were so lucky to have her check on our cat while we were gone. She really went above and beyond the call of duty, especially during the recent epic snowstorm! Jaya is kind, thoughtful, and a very genuine animal-lover! Our little fur ball was well taken care of, we felt completely comfortable, and couldn't have been happier with how things went. We will certainly be booking Jaya again in the future, if possible!”
About: I love animals. In my free time I volunteer for charity events benefiting children and animals. I am a photographer and I donate photography to local rescues to photograph their babies for adoption! I am a lifetime founder/member of the Brevard Zoo (my family helped build it). I worked in pet retail environments for 8+ years with local shop owners and worked in a vet clinic for 1 year. *I also offer photography services for animals while I care for them* I have had everything from a fish to a Great Dane. My childhood home was filled with animals of every kind, some even in the zoo! I am responsible and capable. I respect the owners wishes for their pet, whether that is a strict training visit or a rough and tumble cuddling session. M-Th (not including holidays) I work 6 hour days (it is possible for me to do midday breaks if arranged ahead or to work from home). Fri-Sunday I am not working! At my home I have a fenced yard and a lovely neighborhood with LOTS of sidewalks and a small park. I love going on trips with pups if the parent's okay it! Puppy parks, walks in parks, adventures into town you name it! I'm always respectful of the owner's rules - if they want "strict parenting" I've got you! If they want cuddles and treats I've got you!

About: I have several years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all kinds — including dogs, cats, small animals, and even senior pets.

I take pride in providing dependable, safe, and loving care so pet owners can feel confident their companions are in good hands. I’m currently a stay at home mom, both my kids are now in school full time. I would love to be able to help others with their pets while I’m home.

About: Hi, I’m Lauren! I’ve spent my whole life around animals and understand that every pet has a unique personality and set of needs. Whether your dog needs some long walks around the neighborhood or your cat prefers quiet companionship and scratches behind the ears, I am here to provide a safe and loving environment. I am punctual, communicative, and attentive to detail; I'll do my best to ensure your pets stay happy and healthy while you're away. I'm currently a stay at home mom homeschooling my 3 boys. I can provide all day companionship and activity for your fur babies and plenty of walks and play time. Communication: I’ll send regular photo and video updates so you never have to wonder how they’re doing with care log. Safety First: I am extremely mindful of leash safety, dietary restrictions, and home security. If I'm coming to your pet's space, we would start with a well check of the environment to make sure nothing has changed since you said goodbye to them. Taking them out for a walk and then settling them back down when we get home with quick grooming if needed, water, and some play time or petting depending on what they need. Finishing with a full report so you know just how it went. I have a pet friendly home ready to invite your fur babies over to play with my two dogs (7 years old, sisters, mixed breed). Fenced in backyard area and a great neighborhood for walks. Plenty of outdoor shaded area to relax and plenty of indoor play space to keep cool on hot Florida days.

I felt really safe leaving our dog in her care. He loves playing with other dogs and she provided him a great place to do this. I will be using her awesome service again.”
“Daniel S. did a great job boarding my two dogs for a couple of days while I was at work. He was very accommodating with my odd working hours, kept me updated with photos throughout their stay, and was attentive to all of my dogs’ needs. He truly went above and beyond my expectations, and it gave me peace of mind knowing they were in good hands. I would definitely book with him again and highly recommend him to others.”
About: I’ve been caring for animals from cats to dogs to fish and turtles since I was young. I love animals and can’t wait to ease your travel or emergency worries while you are away. I work from home and will follow your schedule to the best of my ability, so your pet will be looked after during the day! I work from home so I am available all day everyday typically. It’s so fun to learn each pets quirks and personalities. Pet care helps me get out and get my steps in. House (Day) Sitting: Since I have a fur baby and family of my own, I generally provide early morning-late evening services following your schedule. Of course, if your pet needs special attention, this can be accommodated for overnight care. Please disclose all indoor cameras. Boarding: For their safety and little piece of home, please bring your baby’s kennel/cage/carrier and something that smells like you along with food and water bowls.
“Pepper loves spending time with Mia! She responds quick and my dog is always extremely excited when she sees we are at their home. We love using Mia for daycare and would 100% recommend booking!”
About: I provide personalized, attentive care and treat every pet like a member of my own family. With years 12 of experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities, I’m comfortable adapting to each pet’s unique needs and routine. I have experience caring for playful puppies who need extra supervision, frequent potty breaks, and consistency, as well as senior dogs who benefit from a slower pace, patience, and extra comfort. I’m also comfortable administering oral and injectable medications and following detailed care instructions to ensure your pet stays healthy and on schedule. What sets me apart is the level of communication and care I provide. You’ll receive regular photo and video updates, quick responses, and the peace of mind that your pet is being cared for in a safe, loving home. Pet care is a big part of our daily routine! My husband, Isaiah, works Monday through Friday from 5:00 AM to 4:00 PM, and I bartend in the evenings from 4:00 PM until around 1:00 AM. Because of our opposite schedules, your dog receives plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m home during the mornings and afternoons for walks, playtime, feeding, and potty breaks before leaving for work, and Isaiah is home in the late afternoons and evenings to continue their care before I return home at night. We work together to make sure every dog stays on their normal routine with regular potty breaks, meals, exercise, and lots of love and attention. Our goal is for every pup to feel safe, comfortable, and right at home while you’re away. My home is kept clean, pet-friendly, and free of hazards to provide a safe environment. If I have multiple boarding dogs, I carefully consider each dog’s temperament and only accept pets that I know can safely coexist. If needed, dogs can be separated during meals, rest time, or whenever it’s in their best interest. I also provide regular photo and video updates because I know how reassuring it is to see your pet happy and having fun while you’re away. My goal is for both you and your pet to feel completely comfortable, confident, and stress-free throughout the stay.
“Debbie was AWESOME!!! She really cared for Mochi and treated her like one of her own dogs. We had a solid piece of mind that our fur baby was in good hands. We would use her again and HIGHLY recommend any call on her when in the area.”
“They took great care of my little love when we needed a last minute drop off on our vacation. Made sure he was comfortable and sent me pictures to show he was doing well. Thanks for providing great service!”

About: I've been pet sitting for friends and family for over four years now, caring for large and small dogs but especially senior dogs. I can give meds or provide special care for all animals of age. I'm also very active and am interested in giving energetic pups the exercise they need while you're gone or away! I'm a full time student at Valencia College with a partial weekday schedule. I'm available for drop in on some weekday evenings and I'm perfect for weekend trips away or even longer weekends trips. I do not provide in-home boarding however I'm a diligent caretaker who's comfortable with most dogs and I have a confident approach with animals of all kinds.
About: I fortunately have 6+ years experience working in the veterinary field and I’ve also been pet sitting for 10 years, for close friends, family, neighbors, and colleagues of mine. I can take care of special needs pets, giving oral or injectable medications and changing diapers or applying creams. I got you covered! I’m currently part-time at my job so I have ample time for play dates, walks, sleep overs, whatever your pet care needs may be! I have a large fenced in yard, treats for both dogs and cats, toys for both dogs and cats, and a medium size crate if needed I can provide for those of our furry friends who are crate trained.
About: I have experience with both dogs and cats and committed to making every pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I will love your pets like my own! I am currently only working 2 days a week (Wed-Thur) as I am in school (online). I have plenty of time to care for your furry family members:) I will care for your pets in their home with feeding, walks, playtime, fresh water, medication if needed, and lots of attention to keep them comfortable.
About: I am a military veteran with a background as a Military Police officer and K9 handler, with over 10 years of experience caring for dogs and cats. I have worked with working breeds, high-energy dogs, and family pets, providing daily care such as feeding, basic medication administration, leash handling, enrichment, and structured routines. I am comfortable caring for puppies, senior pets, and dogs that benefit from consistent boundaries and positive reinforcement. My K9 experience has strengthened my situational awareness, patience, and ability to read animal behavior to ensure safe, calm, and positive interactions. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine. I drop my son off at daycare at 8:30 AM and pick him up at 5:00 PM. I can also provide service after 8:00 PM if night checks are needed. I am available for walks, drop‑ins, check‑ins, and extended care at any time between those hours and late nights. My consistent weekday availability allows me to maintain reliable routines and provide focused, unrushed care. Safety is my top priority. I follow all owner instructions closely, maintain secure leash handling, and remain aware of surroundings during walks and visits. In clients’ homes, I respect boundaries, keep spaces clean, and ensure doors, gates, and crates are properly secured. My law enforcement and K9 background has trained me to anticipate risks, remain calm, and make sound decisions to keep pets safe, comfortable, and well cared for at all times.
About: I’ve always had a deep love for animals and have spent my whole life caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. From bottle-feeding kittens and caring for puppies to helping senior dogs feel comfortable and supported, working with animals has always come naturally to me. I truly believe every pet deserves patience, love, and individualized care, and I enjoy building trust with each animal I meet. I currently work part-time as a kennel technician, which has given me hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of pets in a professional setting. Through this job, I’ve become comfortable with administering medications, following feeding schedules, cleaning and sanitizing spaces, monitoring animal behavior, and making sure pets stay safe, healthy, and happy while away from their owners. I’m also experienced with pets who may be nervous, shy, high-energy, elderly, or need extra attention and reassurance. The services I provide can include feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, administering medications, companionship, cleaning up after pets, and keeping up with their normal routines to help them feel comfortable while you’re away. I understand that every animal is different — some pets love constant attention and activity, while others prefer space and a calm environment. I’m very patient and always respect their comfort levels and personalities. Because I work part-time, I have a flexible schedule and can dedicate quality time to the pets I care for. I’m able to provide consistent attention, regular check-ins, and plenty of companionship throughout the day depending on your pet’s needs. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your animals, and I always aim to make both pets and owners feel comfortable, updated, and at ease. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, and I treat every pet like they are my own. My goal is to provide dependable, loving, and professional care so your pets feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m working part time Monday- Wednesday, Other then that my schedule is fully open to help you take care of your babies . Even if you needed me those days my schedule is flexible so I could work with you! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize safety, trust, and maintaining a calm, familiar environment for the animal. I understand that pets feel most secure in their own space, so I do my best to keep their routine consistent and minimize stress while their owners are away. I always follow the owner’s instructions carefully regarding feeding, walks, medications, crate time, and any house rules specific to the pet. I make sure doors, gates, and leashes are secured at all times to prevent escapes, and I supervise pets closely during all interactions. If a pet needs space, I respect that and allow them time to adjust to my presence without pressure. Cleanliness is also a priority — I keep feeding areas, water bowls, and any messes clean, and make sure litter boxes or potty areas are maintained properly. I also ensure the home is left just as I found it, with respect for both the pet and the owner’s space.
About: I’ve been actively involved in animal rescue in Brevard County since I was a preteen and continue that work today. Through PAWS and Space Coast Feline Network (SCFN), I’ve worked hands-on with cats of all backgrounds—including ferals, seniors, kittens, and cats with medical needs, disabilities, or behavioral challenges. I also have similar experience rescuing dogs more casually and fostering with SCFN, caring for dogs with a wide range of personalities, energy levels, and routines. Over the years, I’ve become very comfortable reading animal body language, maintaining routines, and helping pets feel safe and settled in new environments. I’m experienced with administering basic medications, following specific care instructions, and giving extra attention to pets who need patience, structure, or reassurance. I treat every animal as an individual and care for them as if they were my own. At home, I have three dogs of my own—a senior Great Dane, a rescue mix, and a Goldendoodle. All are spayed/neutered and up to date on vaccinations, and I’m very familiar with managing mixed sizes, ages, and energy levels in a calm, structured environment. I also have experience caring for various farm animals, which has further strengthened my comfort with diverse animal needs and routines. *** Daycare bookings exceeding 10 hours may incur an extended care fee*** Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I’m a full-time online student, which allows me to be home the majority of the day and provide consistent supervision, regular potty breaks, structured meals, playtime, and plenty of attention. I keep a calm, predictable schedule and adjust routines to match each pet’s normal habits as closely as possible. Because I’m experienced balancing multiple animals of different ages and energy levels, care never feels rushed or chaotic. Boarding pets are treated as part of the household, not as drop-ins, and I’m available throughout the day to ensure they’re comfortable, safe, and well cared for. Safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I provide care in a calm, structured home environment and take time to understand each pet’s routine, preferences, and boundaries before and during their stay. I introduce new dogs slowly, supervise interactions, and adjust care based on personality, energy level, and comfort—not a one-size-fits-all approach. I maintain a clean, secure space with close supervision, regular potty breaks, and plenty of opportunities for rest and enrichment. I’m experienced caring for senior pets, rescues, and animals with medical or behavioral needs, and I carefully follow all feeding schedules, medication instructions, and special care plans. Clear communication is important to me. I provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel confident their pets are safe, happy, and well cared for. Whether pets are staying in my home or I’m caring for them in theirs, I treat every animal and space with respect, attention, and care—just as I would my own.
About: I’ve been around dogs since I was a baby, I love taking care of them and spending time with them. I would love to make your life easier in the process I currently work full time, but I always have time for dogs! When I am not at work, I have a lot of free time on my hands. I live in an apartment so I wouldn’t be able to watch animals at my house sadly. But I am more than happy to come to your house and help out when needed

“Colleen is great with Stella. I appreciated her help most recently when our living room flooded and I needed to focus on remediation. The fact that she gives an option of sitter pick-up/drop-off benefited our family.”
“Maggie had a great time with Dee and her family. Dee will be my first choice when we travel again. Maggie was dressed up for 4th of July and went to the river with her new friends.”
“Joanna has kept our dogs three times now and I cannot thank her enough for the EXCELLENT love and care that she provides. She is great at sending photos and communicating throughout their stay which always puts our minds at ease. I never have to worry about my dogs being scared or missing us at all. Joanna always makes them feel right at home :)”
“Lauren was amazing. Kept me updated with how my dog Danny was doing and sent pictures as well. Answered any questions I had. Very much recommend her. She was very friendly and my Danny had a great time with her. I will definitely be rebooking.”

Her extensive experience made both my wife and I very comfortable in knowing our dog (boxer, hound, pit mix) would be taken care of. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND Katrina and will be utilizing her services on a regular basis in the near future.”
“We needed some boarding for our 2 golden-doodles for a couple of nights while we were visiting the Coca Beach/Cape Canaveral/Merritt Island area. Mia had availability and checked all the boxes for us...worked from home, fenced back yard, and 2 of her own pups for playtime with our own. Mia was very flexiable and provided a safe, loving environment for Cooper and Murphy! Thank you very much Mia! As well to ROVER.COM. My wife and I have used this service several times when we travel for vacations or short trips and have had great positive experiences! Highly recommend Mia and Rover.com”
“We were happy to find Jolene as it was nice to know that our dog would have some cat and dog company whilst we were away. As an older boy traditional dog boarding wears him out. He just wants to nap in peace with a like minded companion. Upon meeting Jolene I felt confident that Sampson would be comfortable and well looked after. We enjoyed the photo updates provided during our absence. I believe Sammy dog enjoyed his time. Thank you. Jolene. It was lovely to meet you.”
About: I fortunately have 6+ years experience working in the veterinary field and I’ve also been pet sitting for 10 years, for close friends, family, neighbors, and colleagues of mine. I can take care of special needs pets, giving oral or injectable medications and changing diapers or applying creams. I got you covered! I’m currently part-time at my job so I have ample time for play dates, walks, sleep overs, whatever your pet care needs may be! I have a large fenced in yard, treats for both dogs and cats, toys for both dogs and cats, and a medium size crate if needed I can provide for those of our furry friends who are crate trained.
“Carla and her husband were fantastic. They had us over prior to the first stay so we and Johnny were more comfortable, which was fantastic. I love their laid back vibe with having him over, letting him run around and take everything in as he needed to. I was at peace and ease on our vacation knowing he was being loved and cared for. Thank you Carla!”
