About: I grew up caring for multiple large dogs and cats simultaneously. One of the two labs required extra care as he lost a rear limb when he was a puppy. I currently am blessed with a beautiful domestic long hair cat named Misty that has extra grooming needs and requires extensive daily brushing. My professional lifestyle allows me plenty of available time to meet the needs of any unique or variable schedules for both my own and your pets sitting and walking needs. I’m an experienced dog walker and actively engage with animals to keep their attention and gain their trust. For cats I groom and brush daily as well as reinforce positive behavior through praise training.

“Tetiana is amazing. Not only was she an amazing cat sitter for my cat Bean, she also was very hospitable and offered me a delicious breakfast treat when I noted how good it smelled! Tetiana also sent pics of our cat sleeping and relaxing and various updates for the three days she took care of him. My mom was the person who picked up our cat, and she also noted how incredibly nice Tetiana is. If you need a caring person who is great with animals to take care of your pet in South Florida Tetiana should be your go to. I had to relocate and Tetiana reminded me of all the good people in South Florida I’d be leaving behind. I really can’t say enough about how great she is and how much we appreciate her taking care of our cat Bean!”

“We had a fantastic experience with Rafaela watching our cat, Phoebe! Before the booking even started, she came over to our house for a meet-and-greet to get to know Phoebe and go over her routine, which immediately put our minds at ease. While we were away, she was extremely communicative and sent us daily updates along with great pictures. She even went above and beyond by watering our plant! We highly recommend Rafaela and will definitely be using her again in the future.”
About: I’m a huge cat lover and regularly cat sit for friends whenever they’re away. I’m used to feeding, cleaning litter boxes, playing, and giving lots of cuddles and attention—when the cat wants them, of course! I also volunteer at a cattery, so I’m comfortable around cats with all kinds of personalities. I know how important it is for cats to feel safe and relaxed in their own space, and I’ll treat yours like they’re my own. I work from home so I can be flexible with timings. I am generally free in the mornings until early afternoon but generally flexible and can work around your needs. Your cat’s safety and comfort are always my priority. I carefully follow instructions and respect your cat’s normal routine, feeding schedule and personality. I will make sure doors and windows are secure, food and water are fresh and litter kept clean.
About: From cats and dogs to goats, I have had the pleasure of caring for many animals in my lifetime. I currently have three cats in my home and would love to pet sit more fur friends in my free time. I am kind and patient with all pets and temperaments. Although I have cats, I am a huge dog lover as I have had 2 of my own in the past. These days I am an aunt to a beautiful 4 year old Pitbull named Sadie. I was with her mom the day she was chosen from the shelter. I was instantly drawn to her and that bond hasn’t changed. I look forward to caring for your pets as much as I look forward to making mine happy. I hope to hear from you soon!

But most of all she provided safe environment w lots of love for Sadie.”
“Cristal was so amazing. She took care of my standard poodle, Wiles. She let him play in their big backyard. She sent updated videos and pictures. I came from out of town to visit family and wanted to have a place for him to stay all day. She took such good care of Wiles that I did not worry at all while I was with my family all day. Wiles had the best time and kept giving her hugs when he had to leave. I would highly recommend Cristal to keep your dog. I give her five stars. She was fantastic and now when I come to visit my family, I will have her keep Wiles again.”
“You can write it naturally in English like this: She took great care of Zion, and her children are adorable and very sweet. She kept me updated by sending photos and always letting me know how Zion was doing. Since he was still a puppy, I was a little worried, but he came back happy, healthy, and completely worn out from playing so much! 😊”

“I needed a last-minute sitter for an event I went to Orlando for and Yolimar was kind enough to accept my request. She was very sweet with our puppy and was sure to update me throughout the day. When I arrived for pick up they were snuggled up on the couch so I assume Poppy enjoyed herself lol. I would use Yolimar again!”
“Naya is the best! My boy, Hero, came home tired. She even sent him home with a bag of treats as a thank you, and it had Hero’s picture on it. Who does that? Naya does! 🐾🐾❤️❤️”

Thank you so much!”
“This was our two pandemic pups’ very first dog sitting experience and Sara was AMAZING!

About: I have hands-on experience caring for both cats and dogs of different ages and personalities. I currently have two spayed female cats, ages 5 and 10 both are good with other animals, and previously cared for our family Morkie for many years who has since passed. I’ve also helped care for my dad’s Golden Retriever with walks, feeding, playtime, and daily routines. Being around animals has always been a meaningful part of my life, and I genuinely enjoy creating a calm, safe environment where pets feel comfortable and cared for. ✨ I work from home and have a flexible schedule through my small business, which makes it easy for me to provide attentive and reliable pet care throughout the day. 🐾 I focus on creating a calm, clean, and comfortable environment where pets can feel safe and relaxed. I follow each owner’s instructions carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, playtime, and any specific routines their pet is used to. In a client’s home, I’m respectful of both the space and the pet’s routine to help minimize stress while their owner is away. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel reassured and connected throughout the stay. I understand that every pet has a different personality and comfort level, so I always approach them with patience, attention, and gentle care.
