About: I’ve always been an animal lover. I raised two dogs from puppyhood. Lucy lived to 18, and my current pup, Porscha, is now 14. I also have a 15 year old cat, AppleJack, I’ve had since she was a kitten. So I know what it’s like to care for pets at every stage of life, from playful zoomies to slower senior strolls. I started pet sitting because I wasn’t looking to commit to another full time pet, but I still wanted to spend my days caring for animals and helping fellow pet parents. Whether it’s a quick walk, overnight stay, or just some company while you’re away, I’m here to give your pet the love and attention they deserve. I’m especially great with: Puppies and senior pets Shy or anxious animals Keeping routines and providing lots of updates (with cute pics!) At Playful Paws, your pet will feel safe, loved, and totally at home. I work fully remote, and so does my husband, which gives us the flexibility to provide consistent, attentive care throughout the day. Whether your pet needs a morning walk, a midday check-in, or some evening cuddles, we’re usually home and available to help. Being remote means your pet won’t be left alone for long periods, and we can easily adjust to their routine. Weekdays, weekends, we’re here to keep tails wagging and whiskers happy. Whether your pet is staying with me or I’m visiting them in your home, their safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I treat every pet like they’re my own, with patience, love, and respect for their routine. At home, I create a calm, pet-friendly environment with cozy spaces, a clean setting, and plenty of playtime. My husband and I both work remotely, so someone’s almost always home for companionship and supervision. In your home, I’m mindful of your space and your pet’s habits. I follow instructions closely, whether that’s meal times, meds, or favorite toys, and I always keep things tidy and secure. You’ll get regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your fur baby is in caring, capable hands.

“I recently hired Amelia to take care of my furry child while I was out of town for some time. I have never been more impressed with a cat sitter than I was with Amelia! She was friendly, professional, and clearly very experienced with pets. From the moment I met her, I knew that Nano would be in good hands. Amelia took the time to get to know Nano and his personality. She provided me with daily updates and photos, which really put my mind at ease. Amelia went above and beyond what I expected from a cat sitter. It was such a relief to know that everything was being taken care of while I was away. Overall, I cannot recommend Amelia enough. She is a true professional and a genuine cat lover. I will definitely be using her services again in the future! Thank you, Amelia!”

Carmel and Mark will be my first pick next time I have to travel without my baby Cloe.”

Perfect for high energy dogs - Lake Ridge
About: Hi! I'm Ilaria, originally from Italy and recently moved to Fort Lauderdale with a regular working visa. I'm currently in maternity leave and focused on take care of my family, which gives me the time and flexibility to look after not just my own dog, but also other four-legged friends. I've always grown up surrounded by animals. Over the years, I've had two Dobermans, two French Bulldogs, two cats, a hamster, and several tortoises. I now live with Watson, my friendly and social French Bulldog, who loves meeting new people and pets. I’m responsible, caring, and genuinely passionate about animals. I understand their needs and enjoy spending quality time with them—whether it’s going for walks, playing, or simply offering cuddles and company. Your pet will be in loving and experienced hands with me! Please note: due to my husband’s allergy, I’m unfortunately unable to care for cats. Thank you for your understanding. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I offer pet sitting at my home every day of the week, including weekends. Your pet will never be alone: my husband Gabriele, who will take care of your pet with me, works from home. One of us is always around to provide company and care. We have a designated dog area in our residential complex, which makes potty breaks and playtime easy and convenient. The neighborhood is also ideal for walks—it's very green, quiet, and shaded by trees, making strolls comfortable even on warmer days.

“I had to find a sitter very last minute due to an unexpected conflict, and Kat truly came through for me when I was in a bind. She responded quickly, was extremely understanding of my situation, and immediately put me at ease. Her communication was excellent—she sent regular updates and photos throughout the day, which really helped calm my anxiety and let me know my pup was happy and well cared for. Kat’s building was a huge bonus—it’s extremely dog-friendly and has the cutest pups lol There was a private dog run right along the water that she was able to take my sweet dolly to,and a gorgeous park just across the street. It was clear from the updates that my dog was getting plenty of outdoor time and stimulation. I honestly couldn’t have asked for a better setup. Reliability is everything when trusting someone with your pet, and Kat exceeded expectations. She was warm, professional, and totally dependable. I would absolutely book with her again 💖”

Whether it’s a quick walk, overnight stay, or just some company while you’re away, I’m here to give your pet the love and attention they deserve. I’m especially great with: Puppies and senior pets Shy or anxious animals Keeping routines and providing lots of updates (with cute pics!)

Being remote means your pet won’t be left alone for long periods, and we can easily adjust to their routine. Weekdays, weekends, we’re here to keep tails wagging and whiskers happy. Whether your pet is staying with me or I’m visiting them in your home, their safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I treat every pet like they’re my own, with patience, love, and respect for their routine. At home, I create a calm, pet-friendly environment with cozy spaces, a clean setting, and plenty of playtime. My husband and I both work remotely, so someone’s almost always home for companionship and supervision. In your home, I’m mindful of your space and your pet’s habits. I follow instructions closely, whether that’s meal times, meds, or favorite toys, and I always keep things tidy and secure. You’ll get regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your fur baby is in caring, capable hands.

“I recently hired Amelia to take care of my furry child while I was out of town for some time. I have never been more impressed with a cat sitter than I was with Amelia! She was friendly, professional, and clearly very experienced with pets. From the moment I met her, I knew that Nano would be in good hands. Amelia took the time to get to know Nano and his personality. She provided me with daily updates and photos, which really put my mind at ease. Amelia went above and beyond what I expected from a cat sitter. It was such a relief to know that everything was being taken care of while I was away. Overall, I cannot recommend Amelia enough. She is a true professional and a genuine cat lover. I will definitely be using her services again in the future! Thank you, Amelia!”
“Kathye is just perfect. Our dogs love staying with her, they get crazy excited whenever we touch their “sitter” bag. Professional, caring and just great!”
“Felipe was great with Lucykins! Taking her out to dinners and on errands and sending me daily updates. She also enjoyed the huge back yard where she spent her days playing detective and walking around like she has serious matters to attend to. Felipe and his wife, Laura, were also punctual with giving her medicine and accommodated her unfriendliness towards other dogs. I’ll definitely be using their services again !”
“Sebastian was amazing! From the day we contact him for the first time, 3 months ago, he was extremely responsive. We met with him before the booking to make sure Sofia would get along with him and from then, it was a breeze. During her stay, he gave us daily updates, sent us pictures and was super accommodating of our dogs needs. We can tell he took great care of her. We will be booking again!!!”
“Natalia and her family took such amazing care of my pups while I was gone for a long weekend! Both of my pups love kids and had such a good time they didn’t want to leave 😂 We encountered bad weather in the trip back home and she was so flexible and understanding, allowing them to stay an extra night! and the fact that they were with someone around the clock made gave me so much relief since they both are with me all day working remote. 100% recommend and will be coming back to Natalia to sit on my next trip!”
“Marley had another great stay with Antonio! This is her second time staying with him and when she saw him she put her paws on his shoulders and gave him kisses :) She’s not a huge people-dog so this was an excellent sign that she loves and feels comfortable with him! She came home happy and relaxed. Marley is our world and we feel so lucky to know that she has a safe place to stay when we are away and has someone like Antonio to look after her and give her lots of treats and attention! Thank you again Antonio!”
“Jackie was amazing with my dog! He absolutely loved her. She was also great at communicating with me throught his entire stay which is an added bonus. Her services were excellent and I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter.”
