“Zelda’s second stay with Kelly was just as great as the first one. She was even excited in the car as we were showing up to drop her off which is always a great sign! Kelly and her family are top notch and attentive and we will definitely be using her services again.”

“I honestly cannot say enough wonderful things about this sweet woman and her daughter! They were absolutely amazing with Marlee, and I’m so grateful they were willing to take him in last minute. From the moment I dropped him off, I felt completely comfortable knowing he was in good hands. They were so loving, gentle, and caring with him, and I especially appreciated how they kept me updated throughout his entire stay. As a dog mom, that meant so much to me because I could see that he wasn’t just being watched—he was genuinely being loved and cared for. 🥹❤️🐾 Marlee was so well taken care of, and I’m truly thankful for the kindness they showed him. It gave me such peace of mind knowing he was happy and comfortable while I was away. I will absolutely be booking with them again the next time I’m out of town! I couldn’t have asked for a better experience, and I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, loving, and dependable to care for their fur baby. Thank you both so much for taking such wonderful care of my boy! Marlee definitely has two new friends. 🥰🐾❤️”

“Debi and Tom were the absolute best! I was in a bind with a last minute work trip and I reached out to Debi and she was able to accommodate me for the same day. Coming back from my trip, my flight was delayed and they had no issue with staying an extra day with Fluffy. I received pictures everyday and they were very attentive to my Fluffy, who is a 20 year old poodle. I will be using Debi and Tom again.”


“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.”

We would definitely book with Nilda again and highly recommend her!”

“Elizabeth was very flexible with scheduling and keeping my Portie for a late pickup at 11:00 pm. She texted photos and videos everyday which was reassuring that all was going well. I will definite hope to use her again next time I need a pet sitter. Than you, Elizabeth.”

“We had a great experience with Gregory. He was friendly and showed us where Tulum would be staying, which helped us feel comfortable leaving him there. He was also very communicative throughout the stay and sent us pictures, which we really appreciated. Tulum is shy with strangers, but he looked happy and comfortable, especially with a toy he borrowed during his stay. Right before pickup, Tulum got a tiny cut from a bush, and the sitter was very straightforward about it and told us immediately when we arrived. It looked minor and Tulum seemed totally fine, and we really appreciated his honesty. Overall, we felt Gregory was attentive and thoughtful, we would definitely use him again.”


“Mirelys was excellent. I was so nervous as it was my first time using Rover. Mirelys sent me daily updates and pictures. I feel very comfortable leaving Gladys in her care. We will definitely be rebooking with Mirelys again.”

“Abigail was absolutely wonderful! She was extremely professional, reliable, communicative, and very detail oriented. She took notes on everything, which I really appreciated, and followed all of my instructions carefully. She truly went above and beyond to make sure my cat was safe and well cared for, even making the extra effort to look for her when it was raining. She was incredibly sweet and patient with her, and I could tell my cat genuinely liked and felt comfortable with Abigail. Having someone so attentive and caring gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. I would absolutely trust Abigail to care for my cat again and highly recommend her! ❤️🐾”


About: While much of my hands-on pet care experience has been with dogs, I’ve also spent time caring for cats over the years, including having a cat growing up and spending time around friends’ cats, many of whom I’ve helped care for while they were away. I understand that cats have unique personalities and routines, and I appreciate that their care often requires patience, attentiveness, and respect for their individual comfort level. Some cats are social and affectionate, while others prefer space and quiet consistency, and I believe it’s important to adapt to each cat’s needs rather than expecting every pet to be the same. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet. I take that responsibility seriously and always focus on following instructions carefully, maintaining routines, and ensuring pets feel safe and comfortable in their familiar environment. You can also expect dependable communication and thoughtful updates so you know your cat is being well cared for while you’re away.

“Genesis took great care of my two cats. She’s sweet and caring and always made sure my cats were happy and healthy. She did a great job communicating with me while I was away and also sent me multiple photos of the cats each day. If anybody is looking for a trustworthy sitter, genesis is the one to go with!!”

“Kristina is great! She took awesome care of my kitty, had good communication and was reliable. We had some unexpected changes due to a tropical storm and delayed/cancelled flights and Kristina was very helpful and flexible. I highly recommend!!”

“Brenda was very responsive and easily reached , she went out of her way to ensure both mine and my cat’s comfort as it was my first time using Rover. I will definitely be using her services again in the future!”


“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 was the perfect sitter for our weekend trip. She was very attentive to our three cats, and she went above and beyond in terms of the service. Nicole was prompt, flexible, and detail-oriented in terms of the directions we gave her. I suspect this won’t be the last time we go to her for some help 😁”


“Amazing pet sitter! I trusted her implicitly, she has a very kind, warm presence. I received picture and comments every day and had no doubts that my cat was well taken care of. 10/10 would recommend and will 100% have back!”

“Nicole was great. She was always in contact and treated Cloe like her own. She sent me mutilple pictures and a video each day. It let me see that Cloe was in good hands. If I ever need someone in the future, I will be sure to use Nicole again.”

“Extremely professional and caring. My cats have been taken care for my past two trips. Janice was always in communication with me and I felt assured they were in good hands.”

“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!”


About: Cats have always had a special place in my heart\. I’ve cared for my own sassy girl Lilah for four years, helped care for my mom’s cat Blu through lymphoma by giving medication, keeping his space clean, and making sure he was always comfortable, and currently care for Gracie, an abandoned outdoor cat who chose my family as her own\. We’ve given her food, fresh water, a bed, shelter from the rain, and lots of love\. These experiences have taught me to pay attention to the little things and make sure every cat feels safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for!

“Gheraldine did a wonderful job checking in on my cats. Communication was great. Between the pics during visits and quick response to messages, it was a relief to know she was there. I would definitely book her again.”

“This was our first experience using Rover and Brigitta was amazing! We have a 115 pound Great Dane. She is extremely timid and not very trusting of new people. Brigitta made her comfortable quickly and our big girl was happy to go back for day 2! We were sent pictures, videos, and updates all day long so there were no worries at all!”

“Francis was amazing! I had never left our 4 month old puppy with a dogsitter before, but I felt so comfortable leaving him with Francis. She has a beautiful open home where the doggies can play inside and outside all day and receive lots of human attention. When I brought our dog back for the second day he was so excited to see Francis! She is so warm and loving. I have already booked her again.”

“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.

“Sandra and her family were amazing and took such a good care of our puppy. Sent us pictures during the day and made sure he’s happy! Sandra is so sweet and communicates so well. Soka loved his stay.”

“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.”

“I cannot recommend Marrianne enough! She did an absolutely amazing job caring for my dog. From the very beginning, communication was clear, prompt, and professional. I felt completely at ease knowing my pup was in such caring and capable hands. She went above and beyond — sending regular updates, photos, and thoughtful notes after each walk.

I will definitely be booking again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for exceptional care for their furry family member! Thank you again for everything! 🐾💛”

About: Caring for animals has been a meaningful part of my life for many years, including raising and caring for my own beloved dog, Nina, for over 16 years through every stage of her life, from energetic younger years to the extra patience and attentiveness that come with senior care. In addition to caring for my own pet, I’ve regularly looked after dogs for friends, both in my home and in theirs, and I also have experience caring for cats. I understand that every pet has its own personality, routine, and comfort level, and I believe consistency is incredibly important when caring for animals. Whether it’s maintaining feeding schedules, walk routines, medication instructions, or simply respecting the structure pets are used to, I make it a priority to follow your care instructions closely. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’m dependable, organized, attentive to detail, and committed to keeping pets safe and comfortable while you’re away. I also believe communication matters, so you can expect thoughtful updates and check-ins so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is simple: to provide reliable, attentive care that gives both pets and their owners peace of mind. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide dependable drop-in visits and dog walks throughout the week, including accommodating a variety of pet care routines and scheduling needs. I understand how important consistency is for pets, and I take scheduling commitments seriously so owners can feel confident their pets are being cared for on time and according to the routines they know and trust. My goal is to provide reliable care that fits seamlessly into both your schedule and your pet’s daily routine. Having been a devoted pet owner myself, I understand firsthand how important it is to find someone you feel completely comfortable trusting with your pet’s care. I know pets are family, and I take that responsibility seriously. I believe great pet care starts with paying close attention to details and following each owner’s instructions carefully, whether that involves feeding schedules, walk preferences, medications, household rules, or recognizing changes in a pet’s behavior. I work hard to maintain the routines pets are familiar with so they feel secure, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. Safety is always a priority, both during visits and on walks, and I’m attentive to ensuring pets remain safe, comfortable, and properly supervised at all times. I also believe communication matters, so you can expect regular updates and check-ins for added peace of mind. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m respectful of your space, attentive to security, and committed to leaving your home exactly as I found it.

“Genesis was wonderful with Murci, From the very beginning, she showed so much love, responsibility, and a great connection with him.

Thank you, Genesis, for walking and caring for him with so much love. Highly recommended!”

“Nicole was so attentive to my boys! They looked so happy going on walks with her (she sent great pics)!!! Very communicative and I was comforted that my boys were in good hands!”


About: I believe that my experience comes from caring for my own and family pets over many years. I’ve had multiple pets at once and have cared for them through different stages of life, from a special needs puppy to my now partly blind Corgi who requires frequent eye drops and extra attention, to a senior cat who needed diapers, mobility support, and extra support at his 25 years old! I also have a large Siberian Husky who is known for being an escape artist, so I understand the importance of keeping energetic dogs safe and secure. These experiences have shown me patience, responsibility, attention to detail, and how to recognize and adapt to each pet’s individual needs. I’m comfortable caring for pets of different sizes, personalities, and needs, and I’m happy to give them the same love and attention I’d give my own :) I’m currently studying so I have lots of free time to swing by and help out where I’m needed! Aside from Tuesday & Saturday nights, I have a relatively flexible schedule I will follow each pet’s routine and give them plenty of love, attention, playtime, and care. I’m comfortable with special needs, medications, and senior care. In a client’s home, I keep their routine consistent while making sure they feel safe, happy, and comfortable, as well as the client themselves!
“Our dog walker went on vacation and I am so glad we choose Hailey. Our dog loved her. She was always on time and had a nice personality. She put us at ease and we felt comfortable with her.”

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: I have been around animals ever since I was born. I have had 4 dogs and 9 cats throughout my life. I have been trusted to watch family, friends, and neighbors pets. I love going on walks with dogs and working on basic commands such as sit, lay down, and paw. I enjoy playing with cats and giving them all of the pets if the cat seems like they want them. I can’t wait to help you take care of your pets! I have a pretty open schedule so I am available to take care of your pets throughout the day, any day of the week. I will have plenty of time to walk and play with your pets. When on walks I’ll make sure your dog is close to me when other dogs are present and make sure interactions with other dogs are limited to insure your dog’s safety. When it’s just your dog, I will give them time to sniff and go to the bathroom as they please. Inside of the home I’ll make sure they don’t have access to items that will harm them. If there are multiple dogs I’ll make sure they are fed separately and monitored. I’ll also monitor them while playing to make sure everyone is safe.

“Zelda’s second stay with Kelly was just as great as the first one. She was even excited in the car as we were showing up to drop her off which is always a great sign! Kelly and her family are top notch and attentive and we will definitely be using her services again.”


“I honestly cannot say enough wonderful things about this sweet woman and her daughter! They were absolutely amazing with Marlee, and I’m so grateful they were willing to take him in last minute. From the moment I dropped him off, I felt completely comfortable knowing he was in good hands. They were so loving, gentle, and caring with him, and I especially appreciated how they kept me updated throughout his entire stay. As a dog mom, that meant so much to me because I could see that he wasn’t just being watched—he was genuinely being loved and cared for. 🥹❤️🐾 Marlee was so well taken care of, and I’m truly thankful for the kindness they showed him. It gave me such peace of mind knowing he was happy and comfortable while I was away. I will absolutely be booking with them again the next time I’m out of town! I couldn’t have asked for a better experience, and I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, loving, and dependable to care for their fur baby. Thank you both so much for taking such wonderful care of my boy! Marlee definitely has two new friends. 🥰🐾❤️”

“Maria and her mom were very pleasant and welcomed my dog Brandom with a lot of love. Definitely will book with Maria as my first choice to cara for my dog. Thank you💯”

“We had a great experience with Gregory. He was friendly and showed us where Tulum would be staying, which helped us feel comfortable leaving him there. He was also very communicative throughout the stay and sent us pictures, which we really appreciated. Tulum is shy with strangers, but he looked happy and comfortable, especially with a toy he borrowed during his stay. Right before pickup, Tulum got a tiny cut from a bush, and the sitter was very straightforward about it and told us immediately when we arrived. It looked minor and Tulum seemed totally fine, and we really appreciated his honesty. Overall, we felt Gregory was attentive and thoughtful, we would definitely use him again.”

“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!”

“They took amazing care of both my dogs, keeping me updated with constant communication, photos, and videos, which gave me total peace of mind. Plus, they even spoke Spanish to my pups—who, of course, are bilingual! 🤣 My dogs also got to enjoy one of their favorite things—being allowed on the couch, which made them feel right at home. I’ll 100% be rebooking whenever I need a sitter. Highly recommend!”

“Natalie was fantastic with Griffin! She sent me updates and photos of him! She was easy to communicate with. Her kids loved him. I felt very secure and happy leaving griffin! I will definitely use her again!”

“Judy and her family are so nice! She sent us so many pictures of our dogs and kept us updated daily. She was so sweet and loving to our dogs. She sent them home with new toys which was such a sweet gesture. You could tell the puppies loved her and her family and they had a great time with them. I highly recommend her!”

“Kristi was a life saver before my trip to turkey the wee of thanksgiving. That week everywhere was booked to max; and thank God Kristi had room to board KING for me. While I’m Turkey I received updates on king and when I got back my King was save and sound. She took good care of him and nurture him as refused to eat at first. Kristi thank you so much for saving me that week and taking care of my Big baby.”

“This was our first time boarding our senior bull terrier, so we were a little worried as to how he would adapt. Anita made the visit super easy, and Mushy really seemed to enjoy his overnight with her. For those of you with dogs that aren't dog-friendly, Anita's a fantastic option, as she only accepts one client at a time. Highly recommend!”

“Jody is superb. She took terrific care of my beloved Chilli. While I was away, Jody texted me lots of pictures, which was very comforting as my first booking was also Chilli's first time having an overnight stay away from home. Chilli had a great time with her two dogs - they all got along very well and Chilli felt right at home. He was well taken care of and one can see that Jody has a genuine love for dogs. It is imperative that one trusts the person taking care of a pet, and that trust is seamless with Jody, whom I highly recommend.”

“It was our first time having anyone watch our new pup, Rocco, and immediately felt comfortable when we met Petra. She was so nice, and very clearly loves animals. She made Rocco feel at home and made us feel at ease. She was very communicative throughout Rocco’s stay, sending multiple picture/video updates showing he was having fun with her two dogs. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy dog watcher you can rely on!”

“Great communication and good clean home where they were separated from the rest of the house and pets and had their own room and crates for them to be in and were very well taken care of and LOTS AND LOTS of walks so they got plenty of exercise!! Definitely will use her again!! Great pricing for those who struggle to be able to go on vacation because of how expensive everything is!”


“I want to start by saying that the second we met Jill we knew Zena would be in good hands….and we were right. Jill was very receptive and welcoming to Zena. She kept us updated, sent pics and you got the sense that all was well. When we picked up Zena, she was fine and happy and perfect. We would not hesitate to leave Zena with her again or to refer her to our dear friends.”
