“Edith is an absolute godsend! My puppy loved being with her and also loved having the company of her three beautiful dogs. She gave me constant updates and took the best care of my dog. I absolutely recommend her to anyone who wants to make sure their furry loved one is well taken care of while they are gone!”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Ariel was truly incredible, and we cannot thank her enough for the amazing care she provided to our princess, Pinky 🐶. From start to finish, Ariel went above and beyond to make sure Pinky felt safe, loved, and comfortable. She was so attentive, patient, and genuinely caring—treating Pinky like her own. We received thoughtful updates, and it was clear that Pinky was happy and well cared for the entire time. Ariel’s kindness, reliability, and dedication gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. We are beyond grateful for her outstanding support and service. If you’re looking for someone who will truly love and care for your fur baby, Ariel is the absolute best. We would 100% trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone on Rover!”
“Our dog, like so many people's dog, is a member of our family, so we are cautious about where he stays and who takes care of him. Sheena is amazing, sends us updates, and is really easy to communicate with and coordinate with. We are blessed to have her to watch our pup and would highly recommend her.”

“Angela is a great hostess! She gave our pup lots of loving on her vacation away from home! Whenever we get to Angela's our muffin runs to her door she is so excited to see her. She gets lots of love, walks and gets free reign of the house. We received lots of pictures showing us how much fun she was having while we were away which helped us relax on our trip. Have already used Angela several times, very lucky to have found her! 5- stars!”

I am very comfortable with feeding schedules, play therapy, and providing a calm, safe environment where your cat can feel truly at ease
About: I've always had a deep connection with dogs. I bring a very calming canine energy, and trust is gained quickly. Anyone who has a dog(s) and knows me well will ask me to sit for them when they can't provide the care their dogs need.

And it's been the most fulfilling and gratifying chapter of my life. I just have an innate ability to connect with dogs and what I give to them, they give back to me. It's been a very rewarding time in my life now that I get to do what I love best: to be surrounded with canine company. And I can unequivocally and honestly say I'm very good at it. As I said, I'm retired and can easily accommodate the needs of prospective clients. I'm readily available and am very flexible with you and your dog's schedules. I live in my recently renovated condo in the very upscale community of Coral Ridge in Fort Lauderdale. It's a small two-story residence easily accessible to lush parks and magnificent estate homes.

About: I have over five years of personal experience with cats and dogs. In my homeland, my daughter and I raised a wonderful cat whom she named Lucia, in honor of Lucifer 😀 Later on, I cared for a dog and a kitten. Currently, I live with a friendly dog named Luna, and we have a spiritual connection. I'm always surrounded by paws, these cuties make me happy, and we spend wonderful time together happily, safely, and comfortably! Pet care is a natural part of my daily life because I live with a dog. My flexible schedule allows me to easily fit drop-in visits into my morning, afternoon, or evening routines. When visiting your home, safety and trust are my top priorities. I strictly follow all owner instructions, keep doors locked, and ensure your pet is happy, fed, and safe before I leave.

“My dog was VERY happy staying with Linda. She was so sweet she made arrangements for another 5 pound dog to come for a visit so my energetic puppy could play with someone exactly her size! She noticed my fur baby was hungry and she texted to make sure it was ok to feed her( she’s a picky eater) and even sent food home for her to try again. I highly recommend Linda to take care of your dog.”
About: Animals have been a part of my life for more than 30 years, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. Growing up, my Golden Retriever was my constant companion and best friend. That early bond taught me the importance of patience, trust, and the unconditional love that pets bring into our lives. Over the years, I've cared for dogs, birds, and rabbits, giving me experience with a variety of personalities, needs, and care routines. From energetic pets who love playtime and walks to older animals who need a gentler touch, I understand that every pet deserves individualized attention and care. One of my most meaningful experiences was rescuing my Chihuahua/Jack Russell Terrier mix in 2018. When I brought him home, he was severely infested with fleas and needed extra care, patience, and treatment to become healthy and comfortable again. Helping him recover strengthened my commitment to providing animals with the love and support they need to thrive. I've also cared for my brother's Yorkie during a period of illness, ensuring he received consistent attention, comfort, medication, and monitoring. This experience taught me the importance of being attentive to changes in a pet's behavior and maintaining a calm, reassuring presence when they're not feeling their best. As a pet caregiver, I treat every animal as if they were my own. Whether your pet needs companionship, exercise, playtime, feeding, medication reminders, or simply someone who genuinely enjoys being around animals, I will provide dependable, loving care and regular updates so you can have peace of mind while you're away. I look forward to meeting you and your furry (or feathered) family members! Why Pet Owners Choose Me 30+ years of hands-on experience with dogs, birds, and rabbits Experience caring for rescue pets and senior or sick animals Patient, dependable, and attentive to individual needs Comfortable following feeding schedules and care instructions Committed to treating every pet like family Regular communication and updates while you're away I'm currently home full-time, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention, supervision, and care throughout the day. Whether it's walks, playtime, feeding, potty breaks, or just companionship, I have a flexible schedule that lets me meet each pet's individual needs and maintain their normal routine. I provide attentive, personalized care for pets in both my home and my client's home. I have plenty of open outdoor space for leashed walks and exercise, and I have a friendly small dog who can provide companionship for social dogs. I always prioritize safety and follow each pet's normal routine, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise needs, and any special care instructions.

About: I have loved animals since I was a child, watching Discovery Channel and National Geographic. I adopted my dog, Coco Chanel, when she was 4 months old and she is now 13 years old. I began studying Pre-Veterinary Medicine right out of high school, but opted to follow my artistic endeavors in music. I addition to the great number of dogs I’ve boarded/walked and cats I’ve done drop in visits with, my experience is very personal, as it has just been my dog Coco and I for quite some time. Coco was very timid and frightened when I first adopted her and she has gradually come out of her shell, with patience and love. I would love a chance to care for your precious family member and I can guarantee a stay filled with love and compassion! I’m home full-time. If I’m out, it’s typically less than 8 hours. I work minutes from home, so I can always do a drop in to check up. All boarders have free range of my home, including a gated patio (with supervision)! A/C is always on and they always have access to the kitchen for water and food.
“My little Ginger had such a fun time with Diana when my husband went to pick her up she didn’t want to come home! She was happy and went right to bed after eating her dinner. She will definitely be visiting again!”

“Karlee was the sweetest and such a huge help taking care of my our new puppy at short notice. She was able to pick him up and drop him off saving me extra time on an already chaotic schedule 😅”
About: I work FULLY REMOTE: I am dedicated to treating your pet like my own. I love animals more than people… Pets Are My Passion I grew up with golden retrievers and a chihuahua. Currently my parents own two golden retrievers. I don’t have one yet but I will eventually! I own a holland lop rabbit currently. *BOARDING *If I am boarding your animal in my apartment I cannot board an aggressive dog for my bunny’s sake. He is good with dogs as long as they aren’t chasing him or trying to eat him. He has socialized with a chihuahua, boston terrier, and husky golden mix just fine. I am willing to care for all types of pets my last client had a ferret as well! I consider this to be more than a job, a passion. Animals love me and I love them I work fully remote in Fort Lauderdale I have a lot of free time to help your pup! I would love some interaction it would make my day better and I would love to help out. I have grass near me ! I am in a three story apartment that allows pets that is gated. There is actually a pet rescue steps away from where I live and so many places to walk! I am more than happy to come to your home as well.
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I grew up surrounded by them, and now I care for 8 of my own—1 dog, 6 cats, and a bearded dragon. My pets are truly my whole world. I have experience with animals of all ages, from playful puppies and kittens to senior pets requiring special care. One of my cats had diabetes, and I lovingly administered insulin twice a day, along with other medications. I understand how much your pets mean to you, and I treat every animal I care for like family I only work on the weekends, which gives me open availability and full commitment to caring for your pets with lots of love and attention. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or mine, they’ll receive plenty of love, affection, and exercise. I have a large grassy field right next to my apartment or I use the sniff spot app where I can rent a backyard for as long as I need where dogs can walk, run, and play and even swim to burn off energy! If your pet is staying in my home, I do ask that they be crate trained, as I have cats and want to ensure everyone’s safety if I need to step out. That said, if your pet is well-behaved around cats, I’m completely comfortable letting them sleep outside of the crate and making them feel right at home.
About: Hi! My name is Maria. I have 2 dogs and 2 cats, which makes me a proud 'fur mom'! I’ve had dogs since I was a little girl and have always had a deep love and care for animals. No matter what is happening in our day, I always make space to follow their routines—like feeding, walks, and playtime in the afternoon—because they are my babies. They go with me almost everywhere, including long-distance road trips. I have personally cared for two elderly dogs, so I understand they need a slower and more delicate pace I stay very attentive to following medication schedules and dosages. I understand that accidents happen with age; I am very patient and always ready to clean up and keep them comfortable and dry. I must brag that I am quite good at giving relaxing massages to dogs; I’ve seen how much they enjoy them, and they always ask for more! I have experience caring for the pets of family and friends, whom I treat as part of my human-animal clan. To me, your fur baby is not just a pet—they are family—and it is an honor that you trust me to care for them. I will do everything possible to make sure they are happy so that you can feel calm and confident that they are in responsible and loving hands. Your pet isn't just a guest in my home; they become a cherished member of my clan. Let’s connect and make sure your fur baby has the happiest and fun stay possible! Hola! Mi nombre es Maria. Tengo 2 perros y 2 gatos, y por eso soy una mama orgullosa de peluditos, junto con mi esposo (que esta en foto de perfil) el cual tambien tiene anos de experiencia cuidando de mascotas. Desde nina he tenido perros, y un gran amor y cuidado por los animales. No importa que este pasando en nuestro dia, siempre hacemos espacio para poder cumplir con sus rutinas como alimentacion, paseos y juegos en la tarde, porque son nuestros bebes. Van con nosotros casi a todas partes, incluyendo viajes por carretera de larga distancia. He tenido la oportunidad de cuidar a dos perritos mayores en mi entorno personal, por lo que entiendo que requieren una atención más pausada y delicada. Me aseguro de seguir las instrucciones de sus medicamentos al pie de la letra. Y entiendo que con la edad pueden ocurrir accidentes; soy muy paciente y estoy siempre atenta para limpiar lo que sea necesario y mantenerlos cómodos. Debo presumir que soy bastante buena dando masajes rejalantes a los perros, los cuales he visto que disfrutan bastante y siempre piden mas! He tenido experiencia cuidando mascotas de familiares y amigos, los cuales tratamos como parte de nuestro clan humano-animal. Para mi tu hijo peludito no es una mascota, es tu familia y es un honor que confies en mi para poder cuidarla. Voy a hacer todo lo posible para que este feliz, y que tu puedas sentirte tranquilo y confiado que esta en manos responsables y amorosas. Tu mascota no es solo un huésped en nuestro hogar; se convierte en un miembro querido de nuestro clan. ¡Conectemos y asegurémonos de que tu bebé tenga la estancia más feliz y divertida posible! Pet care isn't just a job for me; it is the center of my daily life. I work part-time and am consistently finished by 2:00 PM, which allows me to dedicate my entire afternoon and evening to the 'human-animal clan' in my care. My routine is built around structure: once I'm off work, I prioritize midday walks, feeding schedules, and play sessions. Because my husband and I already maintain strict routines for our own two dogs and two cats, adding a guest pet into our flow is seamless. Whether it’s an afternoon stroll or a relaxing dog massage after a long walk, your pet becomes a natural part of my daily schedule, receiving the same love and attention I give my own babies. El cuidado de mascotas no es solo un trabajo para mí; es el centro de mi vida diaria. Trabajo a tiempo parcial y normalmente termino a las 2:00 p. m., lo que me permite dedicar toda mi tarde y noche al 'clan humano-animal' que esté bajo mi cuidado. Mi rutina se basa en la estructura: una vez que salgo del trabajo, priorizo los paseos del mediodía, los horarios de alimentación y las sesiones de juego. Debido a que mi esposo y yo ya mantenemos rutinas estrictas para nuestros propios dos perros y dos gatos, integrar a una mascota invitada en nuestro ritmo es algo natural. Ya sea un paseo por la tarde o un masaje relajante para perros después de una larga caminata, tu mascota se convierte en parte natural de mi agenda diaria, recibiendo el mismo amor y atención que les doy a mis propios bebés. My Priority: A Safe and fun environment Whether in my home or yours, my priority is maintaining a safe and fun environment that mimics the pet's natural routine. In My Home (Boarding/Daycare): My home is a cozy, pet-friendly place exclusively for small breeds. I have a secure, fenced-in backyard where your little ones can play and explore safely. For maximum safety, I personally supervise every potty break and outdoor play session. To ensure your pet receives the highest level of attention and the best possible experience, I only host one dog at a time. Since I have my own two small dogs and two cats, this limit ensures a harmonious environment where your pet is never overwhelmed. For added peace of mind, I have internal safety dividers/gates inside the house to keep my cats and guest dogs separated if required, ensuring everyone feels comfortable. Furthermore, I treat your pets like family; I provide bottled water for all pets to drink—the exact same water my husband and I drink. All guest pets are introduced slowly to my "clan" and have full access to our family life in a hazard-free environment. In Your Home (House Sitting/Drop-ins): I treat your home with the utmost respect and follow all 'house rules' to the letter. I perform safety checks upon arrival—ensuring gates are latched and water bowls are fresh. Additionally, I am happy to help with small household tasks such as watering your plants or collecting the mail if needed while you are away. Personalized Care: I love rewarding good behavior with treats, but I always prioritize your pet's health. I will always ask you beforehand about treats and specific allergies. My service includes detailed updates, photos, and my signature relaxing massages. I am diligent about following feeding and exercise schedules to ensure your fur baby feels happy and secure. Mi prioridad: Un hogar seguro y divertido Ya sea en mi casa o en la tuya, mi prioridad es mantener un entorno seguro y divertido que imite la rutina natural de tu mascota. En mi casa (Hospedaje/Guardería): Mi hogar es un lugar acogedor y apto para mascotas, exclusivamente para razas pequeñas. Tengo un patio trasero vallado y seguro donde tus pequeños pueden jugar y explorar con total seguridad. Para una protección máxima, superviso personalmente cada salida al baño y sesión de juego al aire libre. Para asegurar que tu mascota reciba el más alto nivel de atención y la mejor experiencia posible, solo recibo a un perro a la vez. Dado que tengo mis propios dos perros pequeños y dos gatos, este límite garantiza un ambiente armonioso donde tu mascota nunca se sentirá abrumada. Para mayor tranquilidad, tengo cercas/puertas de seguridad internas dentro de la casa para mantener a mis gatos y a los perros invitados separados si es necesario, asegurando que todos se sientan cómodos. Además, trato a tus mascotas como si fueran de la familia; el agua que les damos de beber es agua mineral o potable, la misma que bebemos mi esposo y yo. Todos los invitados son introducidos lentamente a mi "clan" y tienen acceso total a nuestra vida familiar en un entorno libre de peligros. En tu casa (Cuidado a domicilio/Visitas): Trato tu hogar con el máximo respeto y sigo todas las "reglas de la casa" al pie de la letra. Realizo chequeos de seguridad al llegar, asegurándome de que las puertas estén cerradas y los recipientes de agua estén frescos. Además, me encantaría ayudarte con pequeñas tareas del hogar, como regar tus plantas o recoger el correo si es necesario mientras estás fuera. Cuidado personalizado: Me encanta premiar el buen comportamiento con golosinas, pero siempre priorizo la salud de tu mascota. Siempre te preguntaré de antemano si tu bebé puede comer premios y si tiene alguna alergia específica. Mi servicio incluye actualizaciones detalladas, fotos y mis masajes relajantes exclusivos. Soy muy diligente en seguir los horarios de alimentación y ejercicio para asegurar que tu mascota se sienta feliz y segura.
“My 10-month old pup slid right in with Auntie Jeralyn, her own little dogs (that made my 16 pounder seem like the big woman on campus), and the occasional other doggie guests. Jeralyn was very invested in trying to get good matches, dog and human wise. The fenced in yard was a great benefit (the dogs spent a lot of time out there), along with fairly quiet neighborhood streets for dog walks. My dog seemed happy there and got good exercise. Jeralyn is a good communicator and also seems very organized. Two thumbs up feedback. Would definitely use her services again if I had to.”

“Jennifer was AMAZING with my Labrador. She followed instructions, provided great updates, and took amazing photos. I felt comfortable with Jennifer and was pleased with the care she provided. She has a genuine love for dogs, which was evident during our initial meet and greet. I came home to a happy and healthy dog! Jennifer was punctual, attentive to detail, and friendly. I highly recommend 😊”
“Ted was awesome! This was our first time using the app or really using any service like this and we will definitely be doing it again. He gave us constant updates and was on top of everything. Made us feel very comfortable being away.”
“Stephanie is so sweet and knowledgeable. She made me feel so comfortable even over the phone. She took great pictures and I super appreciate the little more on the goings on that happened during the walk. Thankyou!”
“She is amazing with my dogs and truly went above and beyond to make sure they were always okay. I felt completely at ease knowing they were in such great hands. Highly recommend!”
“Krystal was so helpful last minute! It was our first time meeting her. She was able to come by and take Bob for a 30-min walk while I was stuck on calls. Super sweet and friendly. Thanks, Krystal!”
About: I’ve loved and cared for animals for many years and understand that every pet has unique needs and personalities. I have experience caring for dogs and cats of different ages, sizes, and temperaments, from energetic puppies to senior pets who need extra patience and attention. I truly have a big heart for animals. Caring for pets isn’t just a job to me—it’s something I genuinely love and brings happiness to me during each encounter. Please see my calendar for the most up to date availability. I am typically available days/nights/overnights if needed. I live in the Wilton Manors area. I always prioritize safety, follow owners’ instructions carefully, and work to keep pets on their normal routine so they feel comfortable and secure. My goal is to make sure you have peace of mind and that your pet feels happy, safe, and loved every step of the way.
“Mya is a great dog walker, is super nice, and I can tell how in touch she is with the dogs. Immediately learned how to handle them and genuinely seems pleased to do the job. You can’t ask for anything else!”
About: I get along with all fur babies!! I have been taking care of fur babies for as long as I can remember. I love getting to know their personalities and figuring out what makes them wag! I live in a beautiful pet friendly neighborhood and enjoy walking with my new friends. I also enjoy traveling to nearby dog parks to have some games of catch! My goal is to make sure your baby is happy and comfortable. I always ask for special instructions and follow them to a T. I believe in cleanliness so, if your fur baby needs some bath time, I am happy to get the bubbles! Your baby deserves the very best treatment and I am up for the opportunity! So choose me and I know you will be happy you did <3 Watching your baby is my only job so they will get all my attention, love and play. I always take plenty of pictures as well <3 I have a great little dog park right down the street from me and love to take walks over there with my pup up for a game of catch. If I am at your home I am open to all suggestions as to where you normally walk and play. Safety is always a priority.
About: I have hands on experience caring for pets, including walks, feeding, and maintaining daily routines. I’m reliable, attentive and focus on making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. I work evenings, typically from 4/5 PM to 10/11 PM, which leaves my mornings and afternoons fully open for pet care. This allows me to give plenty of attention, walks, and playtime during the day, with additional care before and after my shifts. I treat every pet like my own, whether they’re staying in my home or i’m caring for them in theirs. My home is a safe, clean, and calm space where pets get attention, walks, and plenty of care. In a clients home, I stick closely to their routine, respect their space, and make sure their pet feels comfortable and secure. My goal is always make pets feel at ease and loved while their owners are away.
“Maria was a blessing to us and our dogs! She was available last minute and took the time to come meet our two dogs before the first time she came while we were gone. We only hired her to come feed and walk the dogs while we were away for a long day and she took the dogs for a really nice walk both days. You can tell she really loves dogs and was so good with them. Thank you Maria!!”
About: I have experience caring for dogs and cats, including feeding, walking, playtime, and maintaining daily routines. I focus on calm handling, safety, consistency, and ensuring pets feel comfortable and secure while owners are away🐾🐶🐈⬛ I currently maintain a flexible schedule that allows me to prioritize quality time and attentive care for your pets. I am available for boarding and daycare throughout the week and sometimes on weekends. My routine is designed around providing regular exercise, play sessions, and plenty of companionship, ensuring your pet feels right at home and never lonely while you're away I provide a calm, safe, and nurturing environment for every pet I host. My home is set up to be a peaceful retreat where pets can relax on comfortable rugs or floor seating. Safety is my top priority; I stick to a consistent feeding and walking schedule and ensure the space is kept clean and free of hazards. Whether in my home or yours, I treat every animal with the same care and respect I would my own.
About: Ive been taking care of dogs since I was 12 years old, as well as having a black lab of my own. I have a lot of experience with puppies, seniors, special needs dogs, and special services or attention any furry babe might need (such as medications, allergies, and injection treatments) I currently work part time and work from home, and do my schoolwork online so my schedule is very flexible to meet your pets needs and schedule. For home visits, I make sure the dog/ cat has everything they need including food, water, relief, attention and love 💕 and anything else that may be requested from you. For walks I’m very mindful of the Florida heat and the concrete around the time of day.
About: My passion for dogs goes far beyond simply walking them—it has been a significant part of both my personal and professional life for many years. As the owner of Dog Activity World, a successful dog daycare and boarding facility, I was responsible for the daily care, safety, and well-being of countless dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages, and personalities. Operating a daycare and boarding business taught me how to understand canine behavior, manage group dynamics, recognize signs of stress or illness, and provide individualized care based on each dog's unique needs. Whether working with energetic puppies, senior dogs, shy dogs, or highly social dogs, I learned that every dog deserves patience, attention, and genuine affection. What sets me apart is the depth of my hands-on experience. I have cared for dogs not just for an hour at a time, but around the clock, ensuring they were safe, exercised, happy, and loved while their families were away. I understand the trust pet owners place in someone caring for their dogs, and I take that responsibility seriously. Today, I bring that same level of professionalism, reliability, and compassion to every walk and visit. My goal is not only to provide exercise but also to give each dog positive interaction, mental stimulation, and personalized attention while giving owners complete confidence that their beloved family member is in experienced and caring hands. I am available during the week and some weekends. I can handle all sorts of medicine and injections if needed. I am also Pet CPR certified. Your dog’s safety and care is what I value most. I try and look at the world through dog’s eyes and what they need and want most. You’ll receive photos and reports after every visit. I am Pet CPR certified.
About: Hi! I’m a reliable, attentive dog sitter who treats every pup like part of the family. I know how nerve-wracking it can be to leave your dog with someone new, so my goal is simple: keep your dog safe, happy, exercised, and loved—while keeping you updated and worry-free. I’m experienced with dogs of all sizes, energy levels, and personalities—from couch potatoes to zoomie champions. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, medications, leash manners, and sticking closely to your dog’s usual schedule. Whether your dog needs long walks, playtime, calm companionship, or all of the above, I adjust to what they need. You can expect: • Lots of one-on-one attention • Regular photo and video updates • Respect for your home and your rules • Clear, prompt communication • A sitter who actually enjoys hanging out with your dog I understand dogs communicate in their own ways, and I’m patient with shy pups, seniors, and dogs who need a little extra care. Your dog’s comfort and safety always come first. If you’re looking for someone dependable, calm, and genuinely dog-obsessed, I’d love to help care for your pup while you’re away. I am a dog Mom of 3 (small, medium, & large LOL) with a strong support system at home allowing me to assist you with your dog sitting needs. Having recently resigned from a very stressful corporate America role, I am ready for a meaningful, positive experience that gets me excited to go to work and take the best care of your fur babies having 3 spoiled pups of my own. I also have several years of experience with cat care for my neighbors who travel often. Keeping pets on schedule is very important to me and my pups. Following client instructions regarding feeding times, walks or time in the yard, applicable medications and/or treats, playtime, bedtime or whatever is needed for the best experience for the owner & pet!
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I grew up surrounded by them, and now I care for 8 of my own—1 dog, 6 cats, and a bearded dragon. My pets are truly my whole world. I have experience with animals of all ages, from playful puppies and kittens to senior pets requiring special care. One of my cats had diabetes, and I lovingly administered insulin twice a day, along with other medications. I understand how much your pets mean to you, and I treat every animal I care for like family I only work on the weekends, which gives me open availability and full commitment to caring for your pets with lots of love and attention. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home or mine, they’ll receive plenty of love, affection, and exercise. I have a large grassy field right next to my apartment or I use the sniff spot app where I can rent a backyard for as long as I need where dogs can walk, run, and play and even swim to burn off energy! If your pet is staying in my home, I do ask that they be crate trained, as I have cats and want to ensure everyone’s safety if I need to step out. That said, if your pet is well-behaved around cats, I’m completely comfortable letting them sleep outside of the crate and making them feel right at home.

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Ariel was truly incredible, and we cannot thank her enough for the amazing care she provided to our princess, Pinky 🐶. From start to finish, Ariel went above and beyond to make sure Pinky felt safe, loved, and comfortable. She was so attentive, patient, and genuinely caring—treating Pinky like her own. We received thoughtful updates, and it was clear that Pinky was happy and well cared for the entire time. Ariel’s kindness, reliability, and dedication gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. We are beyond grateful for her outstanding support and service. If you’re looking for someone who will truly love and care for your fur baby, Ariel is the absolute best. We would 100% trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone on Rover!”
“Our dog, like so many people's dog, is a member of our family, so we are cautious about where he stays and who takes care of him. Sheena is amazing, sends us updates, and is really easy to communicate with and coordinate with. We are blessed to have her to watch our pup and would highly recommend her.”

“This was my first time leaving my dog with someone and I truly mean I could not have found a better person to take care of her. Jordyn is everything you could ask for in a dog sitter.

“We had a wonderful experience! She took amazing care of Loki during his week-long stay (June 29–July 6). We loved receiving regular photo and video updates, and it was clear he was having a great time playing with her dogs. She even took him to the dog park and had his nails trimmed! We picked up a happy, well-cared-for pup and would absolutely book with her again. Highly recommend!”

Definitely recommend her to anyone with any kind of dog, most folks are terrified of an Cane Corso but she was calm and relaxed dealing with this 130lb Mastiff.

Manchi can be a bit territorial, but Ryan did amazing at introducing them and they got along amazingly. Manchi misses his friends.”
“10/10, will only be using Kristi going forward. She sent me pictures, updates and took amazing care of our pup. They gave her attention, affection and played with her.
