“Kimmeth was perfect on short notice. I was out of town for a short 2 night trip when my roommate who is a flight attendant got called on a trip as well. So in a pinch, and on a holiday no less, I reached out to Kimmeth for help. She was fantastic. My cat was in great hands. She fed her extra wet food, made a pallet for her to hide and play in and got out some old toys for her to play with while we’re gone. 100% recommend and would hire again. Thanks for a great experience, Kimmeth.”

“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 💖”

About: I love being outdoors so your dog can go on lots of runs, walks, and hikes if that’s what they’d like (I’ll be sure to ask.) I’ve been a professional pet sitter for 10 years so I have the experience, but most importantly, the love to care for your precious pup or kitty! I have dog sat for several years, both overnight and just daily visits; feeding, playing, and going on runs with them. I currently don’t have any pets and I’ve missed the company, so this amazing service is perfect and gives me the opportunity to spend time with lots of adorable pets. I’ll be sure to take ether best care and give them all the attention they deserve while they’re away from their awesome owner :) Working mainly from home allows me to keep a flexible schedule that includes plenty of quality time caring for any pet. It’s a balance that keeps both of us happy and adds a little extra joy and routine to my workday. ☀️ I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I stick to their routines, pay attention to little details, and keep things calm and easygoing so they feel right at home—even when their people are away.

She has a beautiful open home where the doggies can play inside and outside all day and receive lots of human attention.

About: Hi! I'm Ilaria, originally from Italy and recently moved to Fort Lauderdale with a regular working visa.

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.

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!
“We arrived in Fort Lauderdale for an extended vacation. Between the long drive here from Chicago and the different settings on the way our somewhat clingy dog was even more clingy and nervous than usual. She was at our side constantly, but we needed to find a sitter for a few hours/days to allow us to golf, fish, etc. without the dog at our side. Tho we were nervous about leaving Bella with a stranger in a new place, it all worked out beautifully. Jody's house was well set up for pets and her own dogs were very friendly. Jody was very welcoming and calmed our fears. When we returned, we half expected to see our dog acting anxious, but she was just as calm and happy as if she had spent the day with us. We won't hesitate to call on Jody again for our next outing. We'd recommend Jody to anyone needing someone to care for their dog while away.”

About: Hi! My name is Julia and I’ve spent over 12 years working in veterinary medicine and healthcare-focused environments caring not only for animals, but also supporting and communicating with the people who love them. My background as a veterinary nurse gave me hands-on experience working with dogs and other animals in fast-paced environments while recognizing behavior changes, prioritizing safety, and helping pets feel comfortable and cared for. Today, I work in healthcare administration within a chiropractic practice where I wear multiple hats—including front desk leadership, patient coordination, scheduling, and administrative support—which has strengthened my organization, communication, and reliability. I understand that trusting someone with your pet is personal. My goal is to provide safe, dependable, and compassionate care while keeping owners informed and giving pets a positive experience. I’m currently offering limited part-time availability with a focus on evenings and select weekend hours. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! Pet care has been a part of my daily life for many years through both my professional and personal experience. With over 12 years working in veterinary medicine and now in healthcare administration, caring for others and maintaining routines comes naturally to me. My current schedule allows me to provide pet care primarily during evenings and select weekends, which gives me the flexibility to offer focused, dependable attention without overbooking. I intentionally keep my availability manageable so each pet receives quality care, patience, and individualized attention. I enjoy incorporating walks, playtime, feeding routines, enrichment, and quiet companionship into visits depending on each pet’s personality and needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize keeping their routine as consistent as possible to reduce stress and help them feel comfortable and secure. I take time to learn each pet’s schedule, feeding preferences, activity level, favorite toys, and any household expectations before care begins. During visits, I focus on providing attentive care through feeding, fresh water, potty breaks or litter maintenance, playtime, exercise when appropriate, and calm companionship. My veterinary background also taught me to pay attention to behavior, comfort, and subtle changes that owners may want communicated. I provide updates and photos whenever desired so owners can feel connected and reassured while away. I believe good pet care is not just meeting physical needs—it’s helping pets feel safe, respected, and cared for in their familiar environment.

“Absolutely amazing and I highly recommend! Valeria and her family are absolutely incredible. I am that protective dog mom that always wants to make sure that my baby is taken care of and I could’ve not asked for a better family than hers to watch my Macimus for the weekend. She was in constant communication with me always updating me with photos and even made me a Mother’s Day card from Mac when I picked him up. She truly goes above and beyond and I highly recommend her if you’re looking for a lovely and responsible family to take care of your fur baby when you are out of town.”
“Kelly is amazing!! She was very careful to make sure she understood our dog and her specific routine. Our dog had such a great time and really enjoyed playing and hanging out with Kelly’s dog. We have already booked again for an upcoming trip. We highly recommend Kelly!!”
“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.”
“Andrea and her family was amazing! My golden girls are so spoiled and for sure they got all the love and attention they like. Andrea sent me pictures and updates at least twice a day, which for me was a plus. Zoey and Molly were so happy and calm when I picked them up. I have already booked her again for our next vacation. I am happy to find a loving family to watch my girls while traveling.”
“Gheraldine was able to board Duke last minute. She was friendly and kind. Duke appeared to have a great time. She kept me updated all weekend and I will book again.”
“Banksy had wonderful time with Gregory. He sent plenty of pictures and updates. He was also so understanding of Banksy's medical needs. We look forward to using him again.”
“Kristy and her family were great! She even offered a meet and greet before we booked (no one has ever offered that to us befor on Rover). They took great care of Spike and sent us photos and kept us updated during our time away. Will book with them again if they’re available. Thanks Kristy!”
“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. 👏”
“Kristi is the best sitter I have found for my shy dog Pepper. Pepper is always excited to see her and you can tell Kristi is such an animal lover. Exactly the kind of person you want taking care of your fur baby”
About: For over 10 years, I've cared for dogs of all kinds for friends and family. I've provided walks, feeding, playtime, house sitting, and in home boarding. Pets always receive dependable loving attention. Since I work from home full time, pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine. My flexible schedule allows me to provide consistent attention, timely walks, and drop-ins throughout the day. I can also work on the go, making it relatively easy to adapt to each pet's needs and routine. In my home, I provide a safe and comfortable environment that’s perfect for small to medium-sized dogs. Since I work from home, I’m able to spend the whole day with them, making sure they get plenty of walks, playtime, and attention. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat their space with the same respect I would my own while keeping pets happy, healthy, and comfortable. My goal is always to make sure your loved one enjoys the best pup-cation possible!
“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! 🐾❤️”
“Jody’s was amazing!! New to town and going out of the country and she made us feel so comfortable. She sent photos every day and kept the line of communication open. Already booked her again!!”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Michelle was amazing with my Husky, Luna! She’s caring, reliable, and very communicative, keeping me updated the whole time. I felt completely at ease knowing Luna was in such good hands. Highly recommend!”
“Rebecca was a great sitter for my pup! She communicated and sent pictures daily. Lola was very tired after her stay and I could tell she had so much play time!! Lola has epilepsy and is on daily medication and I felt very confident leaving Lola in Rebecca’s care. I already booked her next stay with Rebecca!”
“I was referred to Charlotte by a friend. My nine month old Golden Retriever puppy came home very tired so I know she got the right amount of exercise while in Charlotte’s care. Best of all, my puppy still maintained the continuous work I’ve put in training her, maybe even better. :) I will book Charlotte again to take care of my puppy.”
“Leaving my pup in Natalie’s care was one of the best decisions I’ve made recently. She was responsive, proactive with keeping me up to date on how he was doing, socialized well with other dogs in her care, provided a large open space for my dog to play, and provided me with peace of mind about where he’d be spending his time while boarded prior to even dropping him off. I would recommend Natalie to anyone looking for top notch care for their furry friends. Thanks again!”
“I’ve recently found Anita, and I couldn't be happier with the service provided. She took excellent care of Brownie while I was away. She is reliable, attentive, and truly showed her love for animals. I highly recommend Anita for anyone looking for top-notch care for their pets. Five stars all the way!”
“10000/10 would definitely recommend having Mafalda watching your pets. The care and effort she puts into taking care of your pet and making sure they are having a fun time is unmatched. She took my dog out for pup cups all the time, has a pool for dogs to go swimming in, and does pet happy hours every week. My dog did not want to leave lol. She also updates you multiple times a day on how your dog is doing and sends plenty of pictures so you don't miss your fur baby too much. In addition my dog was just getting out of her heat, and she was not only willing to still watch Ginger but also accommodated to her needs perfectly. She truly loves animals and even has separate rooms for your pets just in case your pet gets a little overstimulated like my dog does sometimes. Could not recommend her enough! She'll definitely be seeing Ginger again next time I'm out of town.”
“We love Judy and her family! We are repeat clients and make sure to book ahead when we can cause we don’t trust anyone else with our fur baby. She sends me daily updates on how my baby is doing and you can see how happy he is in all the pictures. I couldn’t ask for a better family to take care of my fur baby!”
“This is a great dog caretaker and puts her heart and soul into her work. I received daily photos or videos about my dog from her. My dog seemed to enjoy Becky and her home a lot. She is the best!! Highly recommended.”
