“Juan Pablo took excellent care of our two dogs. He sent us regular pics and videos. He provided a positive social environment with his dog and other neighbour’s dogs. It was like one big Chi family. We had a great time on our vacation knowing our dogs were well taken care of. The peace of mind is priceless!”
“Payal was amazing taking care of Ted! Communication was 10/10: she shared pictures and videos all the time, and I could clearly see my dog was happy and in great hands. I strongly recommend her!”
“Jessica was the best! She has great energy and will protect your dogs at all cost! My two girls are not quite trained yet and my anxiety for leaving was sky high but Jessica reassured me they were ok and she made whatever adjustments she needed to for everyone to have a great experience. Highly recommend.”
“Taylor was amazing with my dog Ozzy! She kept me updated, made me feel completely comfortable while I was away, and treated him like her own. Ozzy was so happy and well taken care of when I got back. I would absolutely trust Taylor again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter!”
“There is no better feeling than being away from home and knowing that your babies are receiving the same love you give them at home. In some instances even more love. I am sold on Freeman and Jerrie. They really are who they say they are. My dogs love them and their dogs Bella and Bentley. I am just overjoyed and ecstatic every time they agree to watch my babies.”
“Valeria did an amazing job with Moby and Scooby! I was extremely anxious about leaving them but Valeria eased my anxiety with all the wonderful updates and pictures. Thank you for taking such good care of our boys!”

She kept me regularly updated with pictures and how he was doing. I could tell he was happy and well cared for. I will definitely be using her services again and feel very comfortable recommending her to anyone.”
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.
“Nicole, is the sitter I was hoping for, I feel so lucky to have the opportunity to leave my Angel under her care. Romeo felt at home, the love and care she has for her own family, she extended to mine. No doubt, love multiplies in this home. Thank you Nicole!”
“Absolutely fantastic. I plan on using Gheraldine whenever I travel. She’s not the closest, but I feel so comfortable leaving my baby with her. Pics, videos, updates - all the good stuff to make me feel at peace. HIGHLY recommend her services.”
“Finding someone you trust to watch your dog is a big deal! Adrian was wonderful with Mica and sent many pictures where he looked very happy. The doggy playmates were wonderful for him. Adrian has an obvious love and compassion and it shows in Mica when he came home. We will be using her again.”
“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.”
“Kelly is the absolute BEST! From the moment we arrived my fur baby felt at ease and was excited to play. Her home is clean and has a doggy summer camp vibe with all the toys she provides! Rosie is very attached to me so I felt at ease with all the photos and videos Kelly provided me of Rosie having fun! To be honest, I think Rosie was a litttle sad to leave. I will definitely be using Kelly again and would 10 out of 10 recommend her!”
“Marcos was awesome. He provided daily photos, videos, and care to Max as if I was still with Max at home. Max is very high energy and Marcos loved on Max with protective love and care. Thank you so much Marcos, Max truly enjoyed himself and even socialized with other dogs while I was away. Thank you for caring for my big baby Max.”
About: I have been taking care of pets since a young age and have always volunteered at local shelters. I helped a lot with the foster programs for dogs while attending Florida State University. Growing up I was always attentive to our childhood dog who is is now approaching 15yrs old. She isn’t able to leave our family’s home due to age/health and Is staying in my hometown. I would love to be able to bond and give care to other dogs while living here! I currently just moved downtown FTL and I’m self employed/remote. Which ables me to have extra time on my hands. I would thoroughly enjoy to spend some of that extra time providing care/support to animals in the neighborhood. I have very open availability and able to work schedules around clients wants/needs. Caring for an animal is a responsibility that shouldn’t be taking lightly. I think it’s important to ensure that the pet has a welcoming/friendly environment while maintaining safety. It’s important to be aware of surroundings and understand your clients animal on what works best for them. Understanding the pets personality and how it operates the best is important to ensure a fun and safe experience for all parties involved.
“Jennifer is a real find! Her communication response is very fast and it was really great to receive so many photos of Ted while I was away. The back yard is Teds idea of paradise with lots of places to sniff and explore. I will definitely use again.”
“This was so great she took great care and anytime i need someone to dog sit i will be return to Natalie. She sent me pictures everyday and my dogs looked so happy and enjoy there stay with her”
“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!”

“Billi provided an exceptional experience caring for my two cats, Mimi and Pin-get, and I cannot recommend her highly enough. Mimi is my 9-year-old tuxedo cat and is normally very shy around new people, so I was amazed when she immediately felt comfortable with Billi during the meet and greet. That moment alone reassured me that Billi truly has a natural connection with animals. During each drop-in visit, Billi kept me consistently updated with photos and videos, which meant so much to me. Seeing Mimi happily sitting on her lap and watching both of my fur babies interacting comfortably with her made my heart smile and gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. Billi is professional, reliable, attentive, and genuinely caring. She clearly takes the time to ensure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Her communication and thoughtful updates made the entire experience stress-free. If you are looking for someone trustworthy who will care for your pets as if they were her own, I highly recommend Billi. I will absolutely be booking her again for future visits with Mimi and Pin-get.”
“Estefania was absolutely wonderful with our cats! She treated them with so much care and love, and it really showed. The house was spotless when we returned everything super clean and tidy. She was also very communicative, keeping us updated regularly, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. We would absolutely recommend her and will definitely book her again. Thank you, Estefania! 🐾💛”
“Krystal was so kind and professional about everything. Came and met my cat prior to the appointments. Familiarized herself with his environment and came and did what was needed. I would recommend her to anyone”
“Nicole is just awesome. She is so easy to work with and flexible. I booked Nicole services to look after my cats as I was going on a trip. She did such a wonderful job of looking after them and keeping me informed every visit. Highly recommend her.”
“Danielle and Deborah are the best. We use them exclusively. They have a tremendous amount of experience with dogs and it shows in the way they interact with our puppy. We love receiving the pictures and videos of our baby having a blast with his new friends over at their place. Danielle and Deborah, you for taking such great care of our baby.”
“Mara made an instant connection with my shy girl Prima! She did a great job taking care of Prima while I was away and always made sure to send me videos or pictures when she was doing her drop in to visit and care for Prima. Her communication was good and she was flexible with things like scheduling the meet and greet and returning the keys to my apartment.”

“Robin is phenomenal!!!!! My two crazy cats voted her their favorite sitter. They are always so happy when I get home instead of acting bored, or mad like in the past. I am very grateful. 💜”
“This was our first time having Sandy take care of Lily and all I can say is she is AMAZING! Her check in updates and pics were so lovely and kind, plus Lily loved her too! Upon my return, my house was clean and smelled wonderful - just another display of how much Sandy cares for her clients! We will definitely be using Sandy again! 100 out of 10!”

“When I picked up my dog, he looked genuinely happy and comfortable. It was clear he was well cared for and enjoyed his stay. I really appreciate the great care, and I’ll definitely be leaving him more often in the future!”
“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 💖”

“We are beyond grateful for the wonderful care and love you showed our two dogs today! Your kindness, patience, and genuine affection made such a positive difference, and it truly put our minds at ease knowing they were in such capable and loving hands. Thank you for going above and beyond to make sure they felt happy and comfortable. We appreciate you so much and feel lucky to have found such a fantastic dog sitter!”
About: I grew up in an animal loving household. I have had dogs, hamsters, guinea pigs, rabbits, and ferrets. Raised my girl from 8 weeks old and she’ll be turning 9 yrs this year. I was also a foster mom for my local shelter where I provided a safe place for over 15 dogs, puppies, kittens, and cats I work from home, so I can provide multiple walks a day for dogs as well as provide a watchful eye while boarding your baby. My dog is my baby, so the couch and bed is her lounge place. I have a spare bedroom that will be a perfect getaway for your baby. Providing them with their own safe place.
About: Family members have trusted me to care for their animals in ways such as walking, feeding, and keeping them company. Not only do I provide care for animals with a sense of diligence and nurture as if they were my own, but I also have over 12 years of childcare experience. I've boarded and walked dogs as little as 5 pounds to as large as over 100 pounds! Further, I welcome doggies and cats of all shapes and sizes! After numerous experiences with so many amazing pups I will openly disclose that if your pup is not neutered/spayed, is highly energetic, or pees often on the floor the puppy rate will be applied via Rover. What's great about my location is that although I live in a triplex, I have a safe and large gated space that the dogs often love to play and roam in. Further, I am a work from home mama so your animal will have lots of opportunities to go outside or simply have someone around. I often catch the pups sunbathing outside or by the front door. They love my space! I have a ton of flexibility and free time throughout the week as a work from home mama! I can do boarding and/or any form of pet care anytime throughout the week or weekends. Occasionally I may have something on my schedule but that can always be discussed via interview. My greatest desire is to cultivate a nourishing and creative environment for my 2-year-old son, therefore I'm a stay-at-home mommy and make money in ways that still allow me to be present with my son. Furthermore, most of the time he joins me on my pet care endeavors and we make it fun! I have a fenced in yard and it is shared with neighbors in my triplex. Most of us have doggies or kitties! Further, I have two 20-foot staked leashes outside that I will put on the dog if they prefer to hang out in the sun or simply outside for a while. I have a kitty crate and litter box if needed. I'm willing to cook food for your animal if they have a specific diet that they're on. Ultimately, my desire is to know what the pet's caregiver prefers for their pet and to do my best to honor their preference.
About: I have extensive experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. Originally from Montreal, Canada, I am new to the Fort Lauderdale area. I possess a profound understanding of dog psychology and behavior, allowing me to recognize each dog's specific needs. My deep love for dogs is at the core of what I do, and I am committed to ensuring your pup feels at home while you are away or at work. I am working towards transforming my lifelong passion into a career. If you have any questions or concerns before booking a service with me, please don't hesitate to reach out. I am always happy to discuss and address any hesitations. I understand that the decision of whom to entrust with your pup is not easy, so please note that meet and greets are free, and I'd be glad to make time for a proper introduction. I'm all in when it comes to taking care of dogs. I provide full-time dog care services. Depending on the needs of the dogs I'm looking after, I ensure they get their necessary potty breaks, are fed on time, and enjoy plenty of playtime. If I ever need to step away, no worries - my dog-loving wife stays home with them, so your pup is always in good hands. I own an adorable 10-year-old Shih Tzu (Stanley) who enjoys making new friends. I've thoughtfully arranged my living room to accommodate crates of various sizes. Each dog is different so I’m happy to work with you to make sure your dog feels at home. I make sure the pups enjoy outdoor playdates at the dog park.
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.
About: Lifelong dog lover and current med student here! Raised alongside a Cockapoo and a Goldendoodle since I was six, I’ve spent nearly my whole life caring for pups. My medical training makes me exceptionally detail-oriented, reliable, and calm under pressure, while my inner kid just wants to provide the same love and attention I give my own family dogs. I’m a med student taking a gap year to study for my Step 1 exam. Since I study from home nearly 24/7, your pup will have constant companionship, a quiet environment, and endless study-break cuddles!. I’ve raised and loved a Cockapoo and a Goldendoodle since I was six years old, so dog care is second nature to me. Living right in Las Olas, I offer a premium, ultra-reliable, and highly attentive environment. My medical background means your pet is in the safest, most responsible hands possible!

I focus on keeping their routine consistent — feeding, play, and rest — so they feel right at home whether they’re staying with me or I’m visiting them.

About: Hi! I’m a huge animal lover and currently have a cat of my own. I grew up around lots of dogs through friends and family and have always been very comfortable with them and around different personalities and energy levels.

I’m naturally an early riser and love starting my day outside. Since I work remotely, I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time for walks, check-ins, and giving pets attention throughout the day. I think the best care comes from paying attention to each pet’s personality and needs. Every pet is different and I want them to feel safe, happy, and enjoy our time together.

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.
“Absolutely fantastic. I plan on using Gheraldine whenever I travel. She’s not the closest, but I feel so comfortable leaving my baby with her. Pics, videos, updates - all the good stuff to make me feel at peace. HIGHLY recommend her services.”
“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.”
“Kelly is the absolute BEST! From the moment we arrived my fur baby felt at ease and was excited to play. Her home is clean and has a doggy summer camp vibe with all the toys she provides! Rosie is very attached to me so I felt at ease with all the photos and videos Kelly provided me of Rosie having fun! To be honest, I think Rosie was a litttle sad to leave. I will definitely be using Kelly again and would 10 out of 10 recommend her!”
“Marcos was awesome. He provided daily photos, videos, and care to Max as if I was still with Max at home. Max is very high energy and Marcos loved on Max with protective love and care. Thank you so much Marcos, Max truly enjoyed himself and even socialized with other dogs while I was away. Thank you for caring for my big baby Max.”
About: I have been taking care of pets since a young age and have always volunteered at local shelters. I helped a lot with the foster programs for dogs while attending Florida State University. Growing up I was always attentive to our childhood dog who is is now approaching 15yrs old. She isn’t able to leave our family’s home due to age/health and Is staying in my hometown. I would love to be able to bond and give care to other dogs while living here! I currently just moved downtown FTL and I’m self employed/remote. Which ables me to have extra time on my hands. I would thoroughly enjoy to spend some of that extra time providing care/support to animals in the neighborhood. I have very open availability and able to work schedules around clients wants/needs. Caring for an animal is a responsibility that shouldn’t be taking lightly. I think it’s important to ensure that the pet has a welcoming/friendly environment while maintaining safety. It’s important to be aware of surroundings and understand your clients animal on what works best for them. Understanding the pets personality and how it operates the best is important to ensure a fun and safe experience for all parties involved.
“Jennifer is a real find! Her communication response is very fast and it was really great to receive so many photos of Ted while I was away. The back yard is Teds idea of paradise with lots of places to sniff and explore. I will definitely use again.”
“This was so great she took great care and anytime i need someone to dog sit i will be return to Natalie. She sent me pictures everyday and my dogs looked so happy and enjoy there stay with her”
“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!”
“Definitely a 5 Star sitter. I contacted Taylor on very short notice. She responded within 10 minutes. She was watching my dog with in 1 hour. My dog Cookie really liked staying with Taylor. She was very loving to my dog. Taylor sent me several pictures and videos of my dog during the day. I would highly recommend Taylor to watch your pet. We are definitely going to use Taylor again to watch my dog. 👏”

“This was our second time leaving our pup with Amelia and just like the first time, he had a blast! She sent photos and even a cute compilation video of him running in slow mo (with his floppy ears). We felt very comfortable leaving him with her while on an international trip. We highly recommend Amelia!”
“Always a pleasure leaving my fur baby with Judy. She’s my number 1 go to when it comes to taking care of my pup, for the past 2 years! Love her and her family, they are the sweetest and take care of my Copen like he’s their own pup!”
“Alexa and her dog Kara were amazing with my pup Anakin! She took incredible care of him while I was away! She was thoughtful, attentive, and so loving. Anakin and Kara became fast friends, and I got daily updates that made me feel totally at ease. When I picked him up, he was happy, healthy, and clearly had a great time. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Alexa again. Highly recommend!”
“Anita Took great care of our precious baby. She was so happy during her stay with her. We really appreciate it and it allowed us to truly enjoy our trip. Thank you so much, Anita!”
“Antonio was great! Tulum, our Shiba Inu, is a very shy dog and a bit anxious around strangers but after a day or so he became friends with Antonio. We got daily updates and pictures from him. We felt comfortable knowing Tulum was doing well. We would definitely book Antonio again.”
“Kristi was great, great communication. We met with her before to introduce dogs, really great that they got to know each other. We left our dog with her overnight and everything was awesome and went smoothly.”
“Ariel took great care of my dog while I was out of town. I have a very nervous, anxious dog but she quickly got comfortable with Ariel. She sent me updates and pictures every day so I could relax on my trip knowing my dog was being well taken care of. I recommend using her for boarding and will rebook.”
