“Our dogs thoroughly enjoyed Victoria's care! Victoria provided care for them in her home for nearly two weeks, and we have never left them with someone (even family) that long and had them come home so satisfied. They enjoyed their vacation too! Thank you for caring for our girls! They will be back 😊”
“Harlee was fantastic. She bordered my dog for 4 nights and sent pictures every day. She clearly loves dogs and I have no hesitation in recommending her services.”
“Betsy was AWESOME!! She was so sweet with Arya and took extra steps to make sure she was comfortable and sent so many pictures and updates. We would highly recommend Betsy!!!”
“Elizabeth was awesome! She helped me super last minute, was very flexible with my roommate dropping off my dog and me getting back late. She send pictures every day that assure me he was in good hands! 5 out 5 couldn't have asked for a better experience!”
“Very very good! My dogs are hard to attach to new people but they both had no issues with both Brendan and Gaby. Both sitters were very patient, kind, and sweet to by dogs and my dogs seemed to love them. They walked, played, and got along well with their sweet doogie. Beautiful place not all the way into Key West, it was very easy to get to. Would definitely use Gaby and Brendon again. They are hands on with the dogs, both work from home so the dogs always have company. Super Sitter!!!!!!”
About: I have years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments, including my family dog, Ottie. I am well-versed in daily feeding schedules, routine walking, administering basic oral medications, reinforcing good behavior, and providing plenty of individual attention. Whether your pet needs an energetic walk or gentle companionship, I treat every animal with the utmost care and affection. Pet care seamlessly fits into my daily and weekly routine. Outside of standard daytime work hours, I have consistent availability for early morning, evening, and weekend walks, drop-in visits, feeding, and overnight house sitting. I keep my calendar up to date and communicate promptly so you always know your pet's schedule is fully covered. Safety and peace of mind are my top priorities. When caring for pets in your home, I strictly follow your established rules, keep entryways secured, respect your living space, and maintain familiar daily routines. During walks, I stay vigilant about leash control and outdoor weather conditions, and I always send clear photo updates so you feel completely at ease while away.
About: From as early as I can remember, dogs have been at the heart of my life. I believe every moment with them matters. Hi, I’m Shay. I’ve lived in key west 10 years and have lots of pet experience! Find me on Instagram - shewolfcanineservices Fun fact about me: I am currently studying dog behavior and psychology and moving towards becoming a certified dog trainer! I focus on creating walks that are both physically stimulating and mentally engaging, tailored to each dog’s energy level, temperament, and needs. I make sure each walk is a safe and positive experience. I treat every dog as if they were my own, ensuring they feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for in every interaction. For me, dogs are more than pets—they’re companions, teachers, and a source of endless joy. Being able to support their well-being is not just my work, but my passion. My schedule is flexible and does change often. However, Sometimes I get called into work so if I am watching your dog, you have to be okay with me leaving my house and allow me to work my other job. Though this does not happen often. If it does I will let you know. As I do with my own dog, I come back after work, let him out and give him love and attention. That’s what your dog will get from me as well. If I am gone too long, my boyfriend would is just as dependable as I am will let the dogs out and feed them. He helps if I need help, but I rarely ever need help. I have 3 different size crates at my place (small, medium, large) so if I need to crate your dog before I leave my house, let me know. I will care for your pup as directed and will provide a peaceful environment for them as well as playtime, nap time, and keeping a consistent schedule. I will provide stimulation as needed based on the dogs energy levels.
“Belinda was great! She was able to watch Teddy for us last minute, and was quick to respond. She kept us informed on how Teddy was doing, and made sure to send photos to let us know he was having a good time.”
About: I've been a dog lover my entire life and have owned a Husky, Lab, and Jack Russell Terrier, so I understand how different each breed's personality and needs can be. I'm comfortable administering medications, reinforcing basic training commands, and working with anxious or nervous dogs to help them feel safe. What sets me apart is that I genuinely care about every dog I walk. I don't just provide a service – I build relationships and treat every pet like they're my own. I run my own business from home, so my schedule is flexible and pet care fits right into my day. I can offer morning walks, midday visits, or evening strolls depending on what your pup needs. I also live on base, so if you’re stationed there too, I’m able to get on base easily for walks, no extra coordination needed. Safety is my top priority. During walks, I keep dogs securely leashed and stay alert to our surroundings, watching for other animals, traffic, and potential hazards. I respect your home by following your specific instructions – whether that's wiping paws before coming inside, securing doors and gates, or maintaining your dog's routine exactly as you've outlined. I understand that inviting someone into your home requires trust. I'm reliable, respectful of your space and belongings, and always communicate clearly about how the walk went. You can count on me to treat your home and your pet with the same care and respect I'd want for my own.
About: I’m patient, attentive, and genuinely treat every pet like my own! I’m great with puppies; routine, training basics, and gentle structure. I’m equally comfortable caring for seniors who need extra calm and comfort. I pay close attention to body language and behavior, so you can trust your pet is safe, understood, and truly cared for!! This isn’t just a job to me; I love creating a happy, peaceful experience for every animal I meet! I am working part time, so I am flexible to fit the timing and needs of you and your pets! Weekdays are the best bet for me, weekends can be a little tricky! Whether your pet is in my home or I’m in yours, I focus on creating a calm, clean, and comfortable environment! I follow your routines closely; feeding times, walks, potty breaks, cues, and any training you’re working on! Your pet will feel safe with me! In your home, I keep things tidy, respect your space, and make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, playtime, and snuggles of course! When it comes to sitting in my own home, I have a golden puppy, under a year; also a cat, so sitting in my clients home would be my best option!
“Jessica and her family were life savers… they took care of my boy when I needed it the most. 10/10 definitely booking her again in the future and highly recommend for your fur babies!”
About: Hi, I’m Amy! I grew up right here in the Florida Keys, where I work as a local artist. I have always had a big soft spot for dogs. When I am not creating art, I bring that same energy, patience, and care to dog sitting. I offer dog walking, drop in visits, and overnight stays to keep your pup happy and active. One of my favorite dogs I have ever cared for is Tiki, a pool loving Jack Russell! Staying active and keeping dogs cool and well hydrated in the Keys heat is a huge priority for me. Whether your dog needs a fun, energetic walk or just plenty of play time and yard games, I am here to make sure they feel loved and safe. You can always count on clear updates and lots of photos while you are away. I can not wait to meet your dog! I work part time as an artist, which gives me a very flexible routine throughout the week. Because my schedule is open, I can easily fit in morning walks, midday drop in visits, and evening care. Pet sitting is a top priority for me, so your dogs and cats get dedicated time, attention, and care right when they need it. When caring for pets in your home, safety and routine come first. I strictly follow your instructions for feeding, play, and house rules. I always double check that doors and gates are secure, keep your space clean, and send frequent updates. My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, calm, and happy in their familiar environment.
About: Finding good, trustworthy, affordable care for your pets in the Keys can be challenging. Our family struggled for years to find a pet sitter and dog walker we could trust. So when I finally retired, I wanted to be able to do for others what I wish I could find for my family. I absolutely adore dogs and cats and have cared for my own (plus too many fosters to count) for over 30 years. I volunteer for several pet rescues and my husband and I have set up our family run 501c3 rescue transport with a dream of starting our own dog sanctuary someday. I am extremely active and one of my true joys is dog walking and outdoor playtime so rest assured your dogs will get plenty of exercise (if that’s what you’d like). I am retired and have an extremely flexible schedule so whether it’s just a single mid day walk or 3-4x a day visits while you’re on vacation, I can be there. I have a great deal of experience in special needs (I have 3 myself) and elderly dogs and cats and treat them with special patience and understanding. I have experience with puppies and their challenges and I have an impressive understanding of breed and behaviors. Rest assured that I will treat your pets with respect, kindness, love and affection while also adhering to the structure and rules that you have for your pets. Please feel free to message me with any questions or if you’d like to set up a meet and greet. I look forward to meeting lots of new dogs friends. I am retired and have a very flexible schedule. I primarily pet sit in the Lower Keys but am also available for Key West for dog walking. I have a large fenced yard which opens into a park for playtime. We also have a doggie door and large porch for sunning and watching the neighborhood. I take my dogs on 2-3 walks a day along a little traveled area near our home.

About: I have been taking care of pets since I was 15. Both friends and family have relied on me to-walk, feed, bathe, administer medications and give extra love to their fur babies. Growing up as a child I have always had a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals. My current experience in pet care is from working at a veterinary clinic and boarding facility so i can proudly say I have extensive experience with dogs from all walks of life. I have befriended anxious dogs who fear human and earned the acceptance of aggressive dogs. I’ve also worked with animals on a strict medical schedule. While I am currently working full time I am able to care for your fur babies before work(8am) during lunch(anywhere from 11am-2pm) or after work (5:30pm). If needed times can be adjusted please let me know at least 72hrs in advance. When letting pets outside I have a routine I like to follow. The most important thing to me is the pets safety so before letting them into the yard for play and or potty time I do check the yard for any misplace objects,iguanas,chickens, anything that could be a potential hazard to the pet. After I’ve deemed the yard clear then we can proceed to playtime or potty time. When on walks I do like to keep a short leash depending on the area in which we are walking if no cars I will loosen the lead so pet can explore more but if cars present I do like to stop/heel if possible.
“Betsy was fantastic! She kept us updated every day with lots of pictures and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. She was always quick to communicate and took great care of our cat, who clearly enjoyed spending time with her. She also left our place clean and tidy, which we really appreciated. We wouldn’t hesitate to book Betsy again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, caring cat sitter!”
“Needed last minute drop in services and Amy was there for a meet and greet within an hour or so. Took such wonderful care. And brought some mice toys for Liberty’s birthday 😻 Frank and I are extremely grateful for the quality of care provided”
About: My very first best friend was my mom‘s Maine Coon mix, Jade. 🐾🖤 I can’t imagine growing up without her. When I was in fifth grade we got Penny and Cooper after Jade passed. Then I started volunteering at my local humane society (Shorewood, Illinois) in middle school. My family is from rural Iowa, and we were often taking in farm kitties to spay and neuter them, and find homes for them. Many of those kitties are now with friends and family and I’ve got to catsit for my “godchildren.” 😂 Penny had a hyperthyroid, so I am familiar with administering meds. I have also more recently trained in cat care the FKSPCA as a volunteer!
“I can’t say enough good things about Stephanie. She took incredible care of my cat while I was away and made the whole experience completely stress-free. She was super reliable, kept me updated with messages and photos, and it was obvious my cat was comfortable and well cared for. You can tell she really loves animals and goes the extra mile. Everything was clean, my cat was happy, and I came home with total peace of mind. I would 100% book her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!”
“Carli was the perfect kitty sitter! I knew from the moment that I met her that she had the most positive attitude and vibe. She was responsive, communicative, and shared photos of and messages about our kitties that helped us feel comfortable that we left their care in her hands. We hope that Carli is able to care for our kitties on future occasions. 💕😺😺”

“Sarah exceeded my expectations. She took care of my dog as if it was hers. She bonded quickly with her, took her on walks as expected and gave her the attention she needed. I highly recommend her and definitely will use her again.”
About: I’ve been a dog mom since my teens, and dogs have always been a big part of my life. I recently lost my longtime dog, which was really hard, but I now have a new pup who I love and care for every day ❤️ Through both experiences, I’ve learned how to be patient, attentive, and understanding of different dogs and their needs at every stage. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I treat every dog like they’re my own with love, care, and attention. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, walks, and playtime, and I always make sure your dog feels safe, happy, and comfortable while you’re away. I’ll also keep you updated with messages and photos so you can feel at ease knowing your pup is in good hands. I work Monday–Friday from 8 am–4 pm, but I’m available to walk and spend time with dogs after 4 pm on weekdays and anytime on weekends. I make sure they get plenty of walks, play, cuddles, love, attention, and care every single day. I make sure every dog feels safe, loved, and comfortable in my care. I keep a clean and secure space, supervise all playtime, and follow their routine for walks, feeding, and rest. I also respect your home and follow all instructions carefully, so you can feel confident and relaxed while your dog is with me
“Annie has been great while I figure out this app and arrangement for my furbaby! She was quick to respond, initiated a meet and greet right away, and her first visit was a success! Will be hiring Annie for regularly scheduled play dates with my Chloe when work keeps us away too long”
“Nicole did a Great job of taking care of our 2 Dachshunds and older Lab. We took a trip to the Dry Tortugas and didn’t want to leave them in our 5th wheel for 14 hrs without a potty break. Nicole made two visits to walk and let the baby’s use the park for a stretch break. One of the girls wet the blanket in her kennel and Nicole noticed it and put it in a plastic bag outside our door. We enjoyed our trip knowing they would be safe and looked after! Thank You Nicole for taking care of our baby’s!”

“I am so thankful to have found Harlee & Melissa. I would highly recommend! My dog, Colby, had an amazing time and loved her a lot. He was immediately comfortable at her house and loved spending time with her. Excellent, quick communication with me. I wish that I lived closer because I would rebook all the time. If I ever make it back to Key West again I am definitely going to reach out. Thank you so much!”
“Any is wonderful. When we are visiting key west our dog Rosie loves to go to Amy’s house, it’s a play date for her and gives us the opportunity to go out without the dog on occasion. Key west is very dog friendly but there are times when you want to do something without the dog in tow and Amy has made this a great experience for us and Rosie. Thanks Amy.”
“Victoria is awesome. She met us out front so it was very easy to find her, knows her neighborhood, and only accepts a couple dogs at a time, so safety was not a concern. She texted pics of pico, and he warmed right up to her. Will definitely request again if I'm the area.”
“My doggie fell in love instantly with Betsy. She is the sweetest person and animals really take to her. I trust her with my dog and my house key. She deserves the highest recommendation possible.”

“Belinda was so kind and caring with my dog. She met us before the actual stay to make sure my dog was comfortable, sent me lots of pictures and regular updates, and gave me complete peace of mind while I was in Key West. I would absolutely book her again and highly recommend her!”
“Maryna is a very great and kind person. She was sending me pictures of my dog sometimes, so I wasn't worried at all. Looks like my dog was feeling comfortable with Maryna. I really recommend to leave the dog with Maryna”
“Lisette truly saved our vacation! We found ourselves in a tough spot when our sweet elderly dog became too anxious to stay alone in our rental. With almost no notice, Lisette stepped in with warmth and calm reassurance, welcoming our pup like family. She was patient, gentle, and incredibly attentive — sending us updates that let us relax and enjoy our trip knowing our girl was safe and loved. It’s rare to meet someone so caring and trustworthy at the last minute, but Lisette exceeded every expectation. We’re beyond grateful for her kindness and the peace of mind she gave us. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter who genuinely loves and understands dogs!”
“Kimberly was absolutely amazing with my dogs. She kept me updated throughout the day, and sent me some great photos. She was also so flexible with my work schedule and so accommodating. The dogs had such a great time and I’ll absolutely be using her again soon.”

“This was our second time using Stephanie as a dog sitter. She was accountable, trustworthy, and responsible. She sends the BEST pictures of our pets and they obviously love their time with her on walks. She is a pro at expressing our paralyzed dog’s bladder and fearlessly pushes him around town in his stroller. She is the best! I think my dogs love her more than me at this point.”
“Courtney was absolutely phenomenal and I gladly recommend her to anyone visiting or living in Key West! She is genuinely kind and upbeat and took great care of my 3 year old Doberman "Bolt" on hour long walks every day. He came back smiling and excited after every walk and the updates and photos were great. Thank you Courtney! We will be in touch if we are lucky enough to return next January!”
“Betsy arrived right on time, she sent several texts and pictures of Brin during his walk and their hour together. I will certainly be using Betsy in the future and would highly recommend her service.”
About: It would be my pleasure to care for your pet. I am new to Key West, hence my newer profile. I have cared for pets and animals my whole life- in my own home, for neighbors, at rescues and shelters, and for family- for both extended periods of time and drop-ins. I grew up with cats, hamsters, rats, a turtle, my bunny, and my brother even had a sugar glider! My dad was allergic to dogs, but when I moved out on my own, I got my first dog Mars, an incredible husky/boxer/pit mix. He is no longer with us, but now my partner and I have a little Chihuahua mix named Chimi. Throughout the years and the various cities I’ve lived in, I have volunteered at shelters and fostered dogs, cats, and rabbits. I have an extremely flexible schedule, so I am excited to offer my services, especially on weekdays and weeknight or in a pinch! Let me know how I can help your family and your precious pets! I am currently working remotely and on my own schedule, so I have incredibly flexible availability. I would love to drop-in for some quick TLC, a walk or run, playtime, or discuss a longer stay! Unfortunately, we are renting so I cannot host pets in my own home at this time. However, I am fully prepared to be onboarded into your pets’ routine and make sure they are cared for consistently and lovingly in the home that they know and they feel safe in. 🖤🐾

I understand how important they are to your family and will take great care of them like my own with love, attention, and plenty of cuddles! Your pet will be treated like part of our family 🐾❤️ I work at LKMC three days a week from 7 AM–7 PM, but I’m not gone the whole time, my husband is home around 1:30 PM, so your pet won’t be alone all day. On my days off, I’m home most of the time and love giving pets plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and cuddles. I always aim to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I live in a clean, cozy apartment with my lovely cat, and dog. The building is in a quiet, private area with no traffic or outside dangers perfect for a calm and safe stay. Pets are always supervised, loved, and cared for in a peaceful home environment.
About: I used to take care of pets when their mommy and daddy went on vacation when I was 14 and I had to taken care of one rabbit, 4 cats and 2 dogs at the same time. It was my dream job. Currenty I don’t work, so I have a little too much free time. Every day except on Tuesdays and Wednesdays I can take care of your pet and of course on weekends as well. :) I provide pet care in my clients’ homes, following their pets’ routines and needs carefully. I offer feeding, walks, playtime, companionship, updates, and a safe, comfortable environment where pets feel loved and secure.
About: I have several family members who have trusted me in the past to take care of their pets. Pets are family, and to some people they are children. In my care they will be treated as such. I am currently stationed on Naval Air Station North Island, and cannot have a pet of my own but would love to take care of yours. I am fully available in the afternoons. I work full time in the Navy but usually get off around 11-12. I can be pretty flexible for your needs as long as I am off of work! Communication is key. Communicate what your pet needs and I will provide just that. I prefer clients home, because your fur baby will feel more comfortable in the comfort of their home. Anxiety is real, especially for animals.
About: Hi, I’m Amy! I grew up right here in the Florida Keys, where I work as a local artist. I have always had a big soft spot for dogs. When I am not creating art, I bring that same energy, patience, and care to dog sitting. I offer dog walking, drop in visits, and overnight stays to keep your pup happy and active. One of my favorite dogs I have ever cared for is Tiki, a pool loving Jack Russell! Staying active and keeping dogs cool and well hydrated in the Keys heat is a huge priority for me. Whether your dog needs a fun, energetic walk or just plenty of play time and yard games, I am here to make sure they feel loved and safe. You can always count on clear updates and lots of photos while you are away. I can not wait to meet your dog! I work part time as an artist, which gives me a very flexible routine throughout the week. Because my schedule is open, I can easily fit in morning walks, midday drop in visits, and evening care. Pet sitting is a top priority for me, so your dogs and cats get dedicated time, attention, and care right when they need it. When caring for pets in your home, safety and routine come first. I strictly follow your instructions for feeding, play, and house rules. I always double check that doors and gates are secure, keep your space clean, and send frequent updates. My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, calm, and happy in their familiar environment.

About: Finding good, trustworthy, affordable care for your pets in the Keys can be challenging. Our family struggled for years to find a pet sitter and dog walker we could trust. So when I finally retired, I wanted to be able to do for others what I wish I could find for my family. I absolutely adore dogs and cats and have cared for my own (plus too many fosters to count) for over 30 years. I volunteer for several pet rescues and my husband and I have set up our family run 501c3 rescue transport with a dream of starting our own dog sanctuary someday. I am extremely active and one of my true joys is dog walking and outdoor playtime so rest assured your dogs will get plenty of exercise (if that’s what you’d like). I am retired and have an extremely flexible schedule so whether it’s just a single mid day walk or 3-4x a day visits while you’re on vacation, I can be there. I have a great deal of experience in special needs (I have 3 myself) and elderly dogs and cats and treat them with special patience and understanding. I have experience with puppies and their challenges and I have an impressive understanding of breed and behaviors. Rest assured that I will treat your pets with respect, kindness, love and affection while also adhering to the structure and rules that you have for your pets. Please feel free to message me with any questions or if you’d like to set up a meet and greet. I look forward to meeting lots of new dogs friends. I am retired and have a very flexible schedule. I primarily pet sit in the Lower Keys but am also available for Key West for dog walking. I have a large fenced yard which opens into a park for playtime. We also have a doggie door and large porch for sunning and watching the neighborhood. I take my dogs on 2-3 walks a day along a little traveled area near our home.
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and currently have two of my own, so caring for pets is second nature to me. I’ve worked with dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to sweet seniors, and recently started caring for cats as well—something I’ve really come to enjoy! I love getting to know each pet’s unique personality and making them feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s belly rubs, playtime, or quiet companionship, I’m here to treat your furry friend like one of my own. I’m currently working a part-time job, so I’ll have plenty of time to watch your pets! I am available for just check-ins or extended stays, whether on the weekend or weekdays. When caring for pets in your home, I treat it like my own—respectful, clean, and calm. I stick to your pet’s routine, whether that’s meal times, walks, play, or snuggles, and make sure they feel safe and loved while you’re away. My goal is to keep things stress-free for both you and your pet, so they stay happy and comfortable in their own space.
About: I’m patient, attentive, and genuinely treat every pet like my own! I’m great with puppies; routine, training basics, and gentle structure. I’m equally comfortable caring for seniors who need extra calm and comfort. I pay close attention to body language and behavior, so you can trust your pet is safe, understood, and truly cared for!! This isn’t just a job to me; I love creating a happy, peaceful experience for every animal I meet! I am working part time, so I am flexible to fit the timing and needs of you and your pets! Weekdays are the best bet for me, weekends can be a little tricky! Whether your pet is in my home or I’m in yours, I focus on creating a calm, clean, and comfortable environment! I follow your routines closely; feeding times, walks, potty breaks, cues, and any training you’re working on! Your pet will feel safe with me! In your home, I keep things tidy, respect your space, and make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, playtime, and snuggles of course! When it comes to sitting in my own home, I have a golden puppy, under a year; also a cat, so sitting in my clients home would be my best option!

“Our dogs thoroughly enjoyed Victoria's care! Victoria provided care for them in her home for nearly two weeks, and we have never left them with someone (even family) that long and had them come home so satisfied. They enjoyed their vacation too! Thank you for caring for our girls! They will be back 😊”
“Elizabeth was awesome! She helped me super last minute, was very flexible with my roommate dropping off my dog and me getting back late. She send pictures every day that assure me he was in good hands! 5 out 5 couldn't have asked for a better experience!”
About: I have years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and temperaments, including my family dog, Ottie. I am well-versed in daily feeding schedules, routine walking, administering basic oral medications, reinforcing good behavior, and providing plenty of individual attention. Whether your pet needs an energetic walk or gentle companionship, I treat every animal with the utmost care and affection. Pet care seamlessly fits into my daily and weekly routine. Outside of standard daytime work hours, I have consistent availability for early morning, evening, and weekend walks, drop-in visits, feeding, and overnight house sitting. I keep my calendar up to date and communicate promptly so you always know your pet's schedule is fully covered. Safety and peace of mind are my top priorities. When caring for pets in your home, I strictly follow your established rules, keep entryways secured, respect your living space, and maintain familiar daily routines. During walks, I stay vigilant about leash control and outdoor weather conditions, and I always send clear photo updates so you feel completely at ease while away.
About: From as early as I can remember, dogs have been at the heart of my life. I believe every moment with them matters. Hi, I’m Shay. I’ve lived in key west 10 years and have lots of pet experience! Find me on Instagram - shewolfcanineservices Fun fact about me: I am currently studying dog behavior and psychology and moving towards becoming a certified dog trainer! I focus on creating walks that are both physically stimulating and mentally engaging, tailored to each dog’s energy level, temperament, and needs. I make sure each walk is a safe and positive experience. I treat every dog as if they were my own, ensuring they feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for in every interaction. For me, dogs are more than pets—they’re companions, teachers, and a source of endless joy. Being able to support their well-being is not just my work, but my passion. My schedule is flexible and does change often. However, Sometimes I get called into work so if I am watching your dog, you have to be okay with me leaving my house and allow me to work my other job. Though this does not happen often. If it does I will let you know. As I do with my own dog, I come back after work, let him out and give him love and attention. That’s what your dog will get from me as well. If I am gone too long, my boyfriend would is just as dependable as I am will let the dogs out and feed them. He helps if I need help, but I rarely ever need help. I have 3 different size crates at my place (small, medium, large) so if I need to crate your dog before I leave my house, let me know. I will care for your pup as directed and will provide a peaceful environment for them as well as playtime, nap time, and keeping a consistent schedule. I will provide stimulation as needed based on the dogs energy levels.
“Belinda was great! She was able to watch Teddy for us last minute, and was quick to respond. She kept us informed on how Teddy was doing, and made sure to send photos to let us know he was having a good time.”
About: I've been a dog lover my entire life and have owned a Husky, Lab, and Jack Russell Terrier, so I understand how different each breed's personality and needs can be. I'm comfortable administering medications, reinforcing basic training commands, and working with anxious or nervous dogs to help them feel safe. What sets me apart is that I genuinely care about every dog I walk. I don't just provide a service – I build relationships and treat every pet like they're my own. I run my own business from home, so my schedule is flexible and pet care fits right into my day. I can offer morning walks, midday visits, or evening strolls depending on what your pup needs. I also live on base, so if you’re stationed there too, I’m able to get on base easily for walks, no extra coordination needed. Safety is my top priority. During walks, I keep dogs securely leashed and stay alert to our surroundings, watching for other animals, traffic, and potential hazards. I respect your home by following your specific instructions – whether that's wiping paws before coming inside, securing doors and gates, or maintaining your dog's routine exactly as you've outlined. I understand that inviting someone into your home requires trust. I'm reliable, respectful of your space and belongings, and always communicate clearly about how the walk went. You can count on me to treat your home and your pet with the same care and respect I'd want for my own.

“Jessica and her family were life savers… they took care of my boy when I needed it the most. 10/10 definitely booking her again in the future and highly recommend for your fur babies!”
