Look forward to booking with Camilla again in the future!!”

I was a little nervous about leaving my dog for the first time in a new city but she assured me everything would be fine.(and it was) She sent plenty of pictures and kept me updated! Josie came home tired so I know she got plenty of play time. 100/10 would recommend!”

“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!”

“I cannot recommend Natalie and her family enough! This was the second time they’ve watched my dog Nala while I was out of town, and once again, they were absolutely wonderful. It’s such a relief knowing Nala is in such loving hands—she truly adores them and gets so excited to be around their family. Natalie goes above and beyond to make her feel at home, and I can see how comfortable and happy Nala is when she’s with them. They are truly the only people I trust to watch her whenever I’m away. I’m so grateful for Natalie and her amazing family and highly recommend them to anyone looking for someone who will treat your dog like their own! 🐾❤️”
“Petra was just amazing in every aspect! She was super communicative, very caring and patient with my crazy dog. I never trust anyone with franklin yet with her I was able to be free of worries, I got pictures and updates all constantly and he was having the time of his life❤️ I can’t thank her enough and I wouldn’t doubt in using her services again. Franklin loved it, thank you Petra!”
“This was the first time we’d ever left our 14-year-old senior Pomeranian, who has separation anxiety, for more than a day. We went on a 10-day overseas trip and were understandably nervous. Vadim and Stacy are truly the best dog sitters out there, and they absolutely proved it. My mind was always at ease thanks to frequent updates on every walk, her status, cuddles, and constant communication. They treated our girl, Savannah, like she was their own, and despite her separation anxiety, she quickly bonded with them and their pom, Riley, becoming part of their family. I couldn’t be happier. They carefully followed her specific food regimen and eye-drop schedule, and we are so grateful for how well cared for and pampered she was. We can’t wait to do it again!”

“An incredible job once again!! I have used Robin before and will hopefully use her again. She is a total professional and I loved how she played w my cats, her communication, and how she cleaned my apt! It was so nice coming home to having everything in such good order. She asked really specific questions so I knew she was following my instructions closely.”
“My kitten loved Christina . She has a warm calming and kind presence. She also provides photos continuously for us anxious parents . We will be seeing her again soon!”

About: I have experience caring for cats and understand that every cat has their own unique personality and routine. I’m patient, gentle, and attentive to their needs, whether they’re playful, independent, or a little shy. I’ll make sure your cat feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. 🐱💕
“I couldn't recommend Kimmeth more highly. It's always a bit worrisome trusting the care of your pets to someone else, but Kimmeth truly exceeded our expectations in every way. Her daily updates and photos helped us feel connected while we were out of town, and she made a number of excellent suggestions to our feeding/litter/watering routine that we will now implement. She went "above and beyond" in every way, and we (and our cats) couldn't be happier with the care she provided.”
“Sara watched my two cats over the holidays and did an outstanding job. She communicated on a regular basis and even sent photos of my kitties playing during the visits. With Sara's help I was able to enjoy my family time away without having to stress about the cats being Ok. I highly recommend Sara for all your pet sitting needs. Hire her, you wont be disappointed.”
“I recently moved and needed to find a new pet sitter I could rely upon. After reading her reviews, I chose Dawn and was not disappointed! She provided detailed updates and pictures with every visit. Most importantly, she was extremely patient with my fickle kitty. Being away from my guy is hard enough but it felt easier knowing he was in good hands with Dawn!”
“Lilo loves his drop in visits with Alyssa! She always plays with him and leaves the place great. He can be a little shy so she does great with him.”
“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.”
“Nicole is top tier ! She is my go to and the only person I trust with my fur babies. She sends pictures and keeps me updated daily. Highly recommend her !”
“Caitlin was very communicative and gave lots of attention to my babies. She was on time every drop in visit and gave me updates with anything going on with my cats. Loved working with her!”
“Janice was so great with my 2 cats (one kitten one elderly) and sent us multiple pictures everyday to ease our minds on our vacation. I would definitely book with her again in the future!”
“Cherie was an amazing rover for our cat Polly. She arrived promptly each day and was sure to give a detailed description of what she did with Polly during the visit. Would recommend Cherie as she also made the process very smooth and easy and made our cat happy!”

About: I am a dog mom to a 6 year old goldendoodle and have had cats & dogs my whole life. I love to care and nurture animals as they are such precious beings.

At home my dog is fully trained and has fully capacity to roam the house. I also care for animals that need to be crated, limited by space, and more. I am willing to always abide by the rules that are set with each family. Every pet has their own way of life.
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.

“I had a great experience with Ryela. She was kind, reliable, and accommodating. She cared for my furbaby throughout the day, sent some photos to let me know he was doing well, and gave me peace of mind knowing he was in a calm environment. He was happy when I picked him up and brought toys back to Ryela which gave me assurance she treated him well. I would trust her to watch him again. Thank you for taking such good care of Maverick!”

“We traveled with our dog to Fl for a work/vacation trip. While in Ft Lauderdale we knew we needed a day sitter for Mr Charlie whom is diabetic and blind. Cherie was very attentive to his needs and took extra care with Charlie. We felt very comfortable leaving him with her. He had two consecutive day visits and each time was happy when we arrived to him up. As a rover sitter myself I felt that Cherie took care of him as we would And was attentive to our special needs guy. If we find ourselves in her area again we would not hesitate to rebook with Cherie”

About: I’ve taken care of many different dogs and several cats since a young age! I was even a pet sitter throughout college. I’m here to lend a helping hand to make you and your fur baby as comfortable and happy as possible. I’m currently a full-time student and have school Tuesdays-Thursdays.

For boarding I’m available 7 days a week! Your dog will never be left alone for long stretches. Even though I work a full-time job Monday through Friday (8am-5pm) I live five minutes away from my workplace, which allows me to easily check in on my lunch breaks to manage feeding times and give potty breaks throughout the day. In the evenings and all weekend long I am home full time to hang out, play in the yard with Hazel and cuddle. For daycare I’m available weekends for full daycare.(Note: because of my Monday-Friday work hours, weekday daycare availability is limited but please reach out to see if we can make your schedule work!)

Because I understand that anxiety, your peace of mind is my top priority. I promise to keep you updated with lots of pictures, videos and updates throughout the day so you always know they are happy and safe. When your pup stays with me, they will have access to a private, secure, fenced yard for playing and exploring, plus the best company: my sweet miniature dachshund, Hazel, who loves making new friends! Beyond the belly rubs, playtime and socialization, I am deeply committed to maintaining their routine, from strict feeding schedules to plenty of daily exercise. Your dog will truly have a safe, fun and loving home away from home.

About: What sets me apart is the level of personal attention and calm, consistent care I give to each pet. I treat every animal like my own, making sure they feel safe, loved and comfortable in their routine. I am reliable and truly passionate about creating a stress free experience for both vets and their owners. Pet care first perfectly into my daily routine because I am a full time mom ( grown kids) and home full time. This allows me to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. I care for pets by following their routine as closely as possible. Mealtime, walks and play. I take time to learn their personalities and what comforts them.
About: I have over 8 years of experience caring for cats and dogs, and I’ve been around animals my entire life. I come from a family that has always had both cats and dogs, so caring for them has always been a natural part of my daily life. I truly love animals and enjoy spending quality time with them, playing, giving attention, and making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I also like to keep everything clean and organized so your pets can stay relaxed and you can have peace of mind too. My cat is also very friendly with dogs, which has helped me become even more comfortable understanding different pet personalities and behaviors. At the moment, I have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate quality time and attention to the pets I care for. Feel free to contact me so we can find a routine and schedule that works best for you and your pet. Currently, I mainly offer care in the client’s home, especially because I enjoy keeping pets comfortable in a familiar environment and maintaining their usual routine as closely as possible. I have plenty of experience with dogs and truly enjoy spending time with them, from walks and playtime to simply keeping them company and making sure they feel safe, calm, and well cared for. With cats, I’ve noticed that many tend to feel more relaxed staying in their own space, so I’m happy to do regular visits throughout the day to give them attention, care, food, clean spaces, and companionship while you’re away.
“Jessica was flexible and responsive. I had a short notice request and she was able to accommodate. Jessica was also able to establish an immediate connection with my dog, they had never met. Thank you Jess!”
About: I've been around pets my whole life. I grew up with cats and had a family dog throughout high school, and I've had my own cat for the last five years. Taking care of animals has always just been part of my everyday life. I've also helped friends in my apartment complex by walking and feeding their dogs while they're out of town. I know every pet has its own routine and personality, so I always make sure to follow the owner's instructions and give them the attention they need. I live in Flagler Village in Fort Lauderdale, so I'm nearby and available for local pet care. I'll treat your pet like I would my own and make sure they're well taken care of while you're away. I work from home, so I’m almost always around and able to give your pet attention throughout the day. My schedule allows me to take multiple breaks for feeding, playtime, walks, and check-ins, rather than leaving pets alone for long periods of time. Having my own cat, I understand how important it is for pets to have a consistent routine and someone around who genuinely cares for them. I’m able to provide dependable care while also giving your pet the attention and companionship they need. I understand that every pet and home has its own routine, so I make it a priority to follow the instructions provided by each owner. In a client's home, I will make sure pets are fed on schedule, have fresh water, receive attention and playtime, and are comfortable in their familiar environment. I know cats especially can be sensitive to changes, so I believe keeping their normal routine is important. I’ll take the time to make sure they feel safe and cared for while also keeping owners updated with messages and photos. My goal is to make the experience as stress-free as possible for both the pet and the owner.
About: Hey! Consider trusting me with your fur family and their needs. I pay very close attention to detail, have all the patience in the world, and absolutely love animals. I have been taking care of animals my entire life! I’ve had the privilege of loving over 10 animals in my personal home over the years and worked on a farm for most of my life. My mom worked at a humane society for a long time so I’ve been exposed to many situations and exceptionalities in pets. Willing to wash, walk, and play if you provide the means to do so. No breed restrictions I love all animals. I would love to take on any task at hand! Message me and we can work out the details. I am super flexible with payment! I have zero scheduling restrictions on my available days! I would be more than happy to accept flexible arrangements. I also don’t mind out-of-the-box requests!! I am not able to accept pets into my personal apartment home at this time as I have an elderly kitty who is the absolute queen of the castle, but I know so many pet-friendly options in South Florida where your fur baby and I can have fun safely.
About: I’ve lived in Fort Lauderdale for over 5 years and finally have a home of my own and for my dog. I work from home and usually have plenty of time during the day for potty breaks, walks, and play time. I’m also looking to meet dog friends for Freja and friends for me. I have grown up with dogs, cats, birds and fish my entire life. Not only am I here to take care of your pets but to make your life easier. I'm looking to make a little bit of money but also trying to branch out of my routine and meet my neighbors. I am happy to talk to you more about my skills and what you're looking for if you think I could be a match for your needs. I work from home and am fairly flexible. I can do drop ins or stick around during the day if you have wifi I can use. I live in an apartment complex with two dog parks and can take your pets there or on walks around the neighborhood. Whatever works best for you and your pet.

“I cannot recommend Natalie and her family enough! This was the second time they’ve watched my dog Nala while I was out of town, and once again, they were absolutely wonderful. It’s such a relief knowing Nala is in such loving hands—she truly adores them and gets so excited to be around their family. Natalie goes above and beyond to make her feel at home, and I can see how comfortable and happy Nala is when she’s with them. They are truly the only people I trust to watch her whenever I’m away. I’m so grateful for Natalie and her amazing family and highly recommend them to anyone looking for someone who will treat your dog like their own! 🐾❤️”
“Petra was just amazing in every aspect! She was super communicative, very caring and patient with my crazy dog. I never trust anyone with franklin yet with her I was able to be free of worries, I got pictures and updates all constantly and he was having the time of his life❤️ I can’t thank her enough and I wouldn’t doubt in using her services again. Franklin loved it, thank you Petra!”
“I recommend Maria D. sincerely and whole-heartedly! She is a special sitter. She went above and beyond in caring for our dog Ruby. Maria D. made us feel comfortable, at ease and peaceful that our Ruby was being cared for properly! She took the best care of Ruby and kept us informed constantly. Thank you, Maria! Until next time. ♥️🐕🦺🙏🏻”
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!
“Kacie did an amazing job taking care of Sophie! She kept me updated throughout her stay and made sure Sophie was happy, comfortable, and well cared for. It was such a relief knowing she was in good hands. Kacie was incredibly sweet, attentive, and thoughtful, and I could tell she genuinely cared about Sophie. I would absolutely recommend Kacie to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and loving to care for their pet. I’ll definitely be booking with her again! 💕🐾”
“We are so happy that we have found Ariel. The videos she sent kept me feeling good because I could see them having fun! As Rover sitters ourselves, we really appreciated that she went above and beyond to make us feel relaxed about our pups being with her! Especially since we requested her service at the last minute and didn't have an opportunity to meet her prior to the boarding date. She sent ideos of them playing. Videos of them eating. And videos of them relaxing! That went a long way in makingme feel relaxed aboutthem beingwith her. ! She's the first sitter that operates as we do and I'm so thankful for it! We will definitely be back whenever we need a sitter! If you're looking for a dedicated sitter, Ariel is definitely the one!”
About: I have years of experience caring for dogs of all life stages from playful puppies to gentle seniors. As well as all sizes from small breeds to big pups. Whether your dog needs structured walks, trips to the dog park, careful adherence to a specific feeding schedule or specialized attention like administering medication, I am fully equipped to handle it with care and confidence. For boarding I’m available 7 days a week! Your dog will never be left alone for long stretches. Even though I work a full-time job Monday through Friday (8am-5pm) I live five minutes away from my workplace, which allows me to easily check in on my lunch breaks to manage feeding times and give potty breaks throughout the day. In the evenings and all weekend long I am home full time to hang out, play in the yard with Hazel and cuddle. For daycare I’m available weekends for full daycare.(Note: because of my Monday-Friday work hours, weekday daycare availability is limited but please reach out to see if we can make your schedule work!) I have a true passion for animals; I believe it is my calling in life. I truly love and enjoy taking care of them because they are more than just pets, they are family. I will love and care for your dog just like my own. I know firsthand how stressful it can be to leave your furry friend behind and worry about their safety. Because I understand that anxiety, your peace of mind is my top priority. I promise to keep you updated with lots of pictures, videos and updates throughout the day so you always know they are happy and safe. When your pup stays with me, they will have access to a private, secure, fenced yard for playing and exploring, plus the best company: my sweet miniature dachshund, Hazel, who loves making new friends! Beyond the belly rubs, playtime and socialization, I am deeply committed to maintaining their routine, from strict feeding schedules to plenty of daily exercise. Your dog will truly have a safe, fun and loving home away from home.
“Lee Ann took amazing care of Simba! He can be a somewhat anxious dog but it was apparent that he immediately felt at home with Lee Ann and her family. She kept him busy and loved and cared for, and helped me feel at ease with regular photos and videos of his adventures at her home.”
“Jennifer and her dog Kona were great companions for my pup, Twix. Twix is very shy around people, but he warmed up to Jennifer pretty quickly and did not want to leave! Overall Jennifer took great care of our dog, sent us lots of pictures and updates! Would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable sitter!”
“Thank you for taking such great care of Spike this weekend! It is always such a relief knowing he is happy and well cared for (we have used Kristy several times). We’re so grateful and would 100% recommend.”
“Sarah was absolutely phenomenal. Daily pictures, regular updates, and treated my pupper like he was her own. She worked with me on scheduling and made sure he got plenty of exercise. She is my number one choice if I have to go out of town and need a dog sitter!”
“Amelia was amazing from start to finish! She watched our Irishwolfhound/poodle mix Pepper, and I highly recommend her services. She provided boarding for 3 nights and 4 days. He was very happy from the time he met her and he was such a happy guy when we picked him up. We are very happy with her and will continue to use her for boarding. Thank you!”
