“Vlasta was great with our fur baby. We could tell that she was comfortable staying with Vlasta because she went right for the toys. Received pictures & videos while we were away.”
“Labern was so amazing! She took such great care of my doggie. I never once had to ask how Venus was doing, she sent me an update and photo every single day! I loved that so much! I hope she's available to watch her again because Labern has become my favorite Rover in all of Florida. Thank you so so much!”
“If I could give her 100 stars I would, I love Jessica and her family she took care of Kitana and Ghost like if they were her own, I got so many updates, pictures and videos through out the day I felt I was with them. Jessica also, helped us with potty training Kitana. She is amazing and we definitely recommend her. Thanks again for everything we book you again soon.”
“We had an amazing experience! Our pet was incredibly well cared for, and we really appreciated the frequent updates throughout the stay. It gave us complete peace of mind knowing everything was going well while we were away. The level of care, attention, and communication was outstanding. We would absolutely use them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”
“Daniel was recommended by my dog's sitter because she was unavailable at the time. Great recommendation! Me and my son both said to each other that we felt very comfortable leaving Dutchess in his care.”
“This is the second time Mary and Nick took care of my dog Remy and let me tell you, my little girl loves them and was excited to see them. They spoiled her and sent me daily updates and pictures. I trust them and feel extremely comfortable leaving my dog in their care. They are wonderful and I can't recommend them enough!”
“Our Aussie Doodle seemed to love being there. She played with their dog and she slept on the bed with their teen aged son. She took to these people like she had known them all her life. She even jumped up on the son's lap and our doodle just doesn't do that to people she doesn't know. I would definitely use this lady again to watch our dog.”
About: Hey! I have grown up with dogs, cats, and livestock and have experience as a vet tech. I would love the opportunity to care for your babies!

“Diana & Emilio were amazing with my Osa. They were consistently sending videos and photos of my favorite girl and even sent her home with a goodie bag and wrote me a very nice message.

About: I have over two years of hands-on experience working with professional pet care companies, caring for both cats and dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and needs. I’m confident handling everything from playful, high-energy pets to shy or senior animals who require a slower, more gentle approach. Growing up in a family surrounded by both cats and dogs, caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life. That early experience shaped my understanding of pet behavior and deepened my genuine love and respect for animals. What sets me apart is my attention to detail and the level of care I provide to each pet. I take the time to learn their routines, behaviors, and individual needs so they feel safe, comfortable, and at ease while you’re away. With cats especially, I understand the importance of patience, calm energy, and respecting their space while still providing affection, interaction, and enrichment through play when they’re comfortable. I previously worked with Pawsitivity Pet Services, a professional pet care company in Virginia, where I received a letter of recommendation from the founder recognizing my reliability and dedication to animal care. I have since relocated to Florida. I’m also happy to provide verified references that speak to the quality of my work and the trust I build with every pet and owner. 🐾❤️
About: Calm, Patient, and Cat-Savvy I specialize in making even the most reserved cats feel comfortable. Whether your kitty loves playtime or prefers quiet company, I adapt to their needs. I also have experience administering medication and handling special diets.
“Cathy was wonderful with my Daisy!! She sent texts and pictures daily while we were away! Communicated very well with us on everything ! Will definitely use her again!!”
“Awesome experience. My kitty Waffles is a shy, scared kitty around new people and has taken him days to interact with new people. Brittany got Waffles to interacts with her within a day and even seemed to be playful with her. I highly recommend Brittany and i will be using her again when i have the need.”

“Raquel was so great with my pup! He tends to get anxious when at a new place and I could tell he felt comfortable. She sent me a picture of him wrapped up in a blanket and he was a happy pup upon my return. This is my first time leaving him outside of family, and I felt at ease with Raquel! :)”

This is the second time we were lucky enough to book with this amazing couple. Do not hesitate a second to bring your fur babies to their home. Once again thank you so much and we will see you on the 17th!”
About: I’ve spent nearly two decades around dogs — from working in pet resorts and vet offices, where I trained dogs and their owners using structured obedience, clear communication, and mutual respect. My background in working with dogs shaped a disciplined, no-nonsense approach that builds real trust between dogs and their people. Whether it’s a rowdy puppy or a dog with serious behavioral issues, I focus on building lasting confidence, not quick fixes. My schedule leaves solid blocks of time for pet care throughout the week, and I’m currently building out a dedicated training and kennel space at home. I’m available for boarding and daycare on weekends and weekday evenings, with flexibility for drop-offs, check-ins, and training sessions throughout the day I live on an acre of land near a reservoir, with a fenced area and a dedicated kennel and training space being built out inside my home. I own three well-socialized dogs of my own who are comfortable around visiting pups, so your dog will have company. I use crates when appropriate and closely supervise every interaction to keep all the dogs safe and comfortable.

About: With 15+ years of professional animal care experience, I’ve done it all — from leading 20+ dog playgroups to training puppies and snuggling senior pups and caring for cats with special needs. 🐾 I absolutely love what I do and treat every pet like my own! Whether it’s a fun walk, a good game of fetch, or cozy cuddle time, I make sure your furry friend feels happy, loved, and totally at ease while you’re away. Reliable, upbeat, and animal-obsessed — I can’t wait to meet your pet! ❤️ I currently work from home, which makes it easy to fit pet care into my day. I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time for walks, feedings, and play breaks. Since I’m home most of the day, I can give each pet consistent attention and make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. IN MY HOME— The second and third photos in my gallery are of my property. I have a large, fully gated backyard that’s just under an acre, giving dogs plenty of space to safely run, play, and explore. It’s a great environment for pups to get their energy out while still being secure at all times. For dogs who prefer a calmer environment or need a bit more structure, I can easily accommodate their needs and adjust care based on what makes them most comfortable. My goal is always to make sure every dog feels safe, relaxed, and well cared for while enjoying lots of outdoor time. IN YOUR HOME— When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always make sure to respect both the pet’s routine and the owner’s space. I carefully follow all instructions for feeding, walking, medications, and any house rules to keep things consistent and stress-free for the pet. I take time to make sure each animal feels comfortable and loved — whether that means extra playtime, calm companionship, or simply keeping them company while they rest. I also keep the home tidy, make sure everything is secure, and send regular updates and photos so owners can relax knowing their pets are are happy and cared for.

Since I’m home most of the day, I can give each pet consistent attention and make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. IN MY HOME- First 3 photos in my gallery are of my property. I live on 5 private acres surrounded by woods, which gives dogs plenty of space to safely run, play, and explore. There’s also a clean swimmable pond on the property for dogs who enjoy swimming and cooling off on warm days. For pups who can’t run freely or need a bit more structure, I have two indoor/outdoor kennels available. Each kennel has a cozy heated indoor area with comfortable bedding and an outdoor section that’s fully covered for shade and weather protection. The use of kennels is completely optional and only done with the owner’s consent — most dogs love having both options for play and relaxation. My goal is always to make sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while enjoying plenty of fresh air and outdoor time.

About: I bring over two years of professional, hands-on experience working with established pet care companies, caring for both cats and dogs of all sizes, breeds, temperaments, and special needs. My experience includes everything from high-energy, playful pets to shy, anxious, and senior animals who require patience, consistency, and a calm, gentle approach. My care style is highly attentive and individualized. I take the time to understand each pet’s personality, comfort level, and routine so I can provide care that feels safe, familiar, and stress-free. Whether it’s structured walks, quiet companionship, enrichment play, or simply a calm presence, I adjust fully to what each animal needs in the moment. I also have experience following detailed care instructions, maintaining clean and comfortable environments, and administering basic medications when needed. I’m confident reading both canine and feline behavior, including body language, boundaries, and stress signals, which helps me build trust quickly with even shy or sensitive pets. Growing up in a home surrounded by both cats and dogs, animal care has always been second nature to me. Combined with my professional experience, it has shaped a calm, observant, and highly reliable approach to every pet I care for. I previously worked with Pawsitivity Pet Services, a professional pet care company in Virginia, where I received a letter of recommendation from the founder recognizing my reliability and dedication to animal care. I have since relocated to Florida. Verified references are also available upon request. 🐾❤️ Pet care is a central part of my weekly routine, and I’ve structured my schedule to be flexible, reliable, and fully focused on providing consistent care. I recently relocated to Florida, and I currently have open availability throughout the week for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting, including mornings, afternoons, and evenings depending on client needs. I prioritize being dependable, punctual, and communicative so pet parents always feel confident their pets are in consistent, attentive care. I take the time to follow each pet’s routine closely and ensure every visit is completed with care, attention, and reliability. Whether it’s ongoing weekly care or occasional bookings, I’m committed to providing trustworthy service that owners can depend on. I provide pet care exclusively in the client’s home, where pets are most comfortable in their familiar environment and routines. I follow all instructions closely to ensure each pet’s safety, well-being, and consistency in their daily care. I focus on maintaining a secure, respectful, and attentive environment during every visit, including feeding schedules, walks, litter box maintenance, playtime, and any special care needs such as medications or specific routines. My goal is to ensure pets feel comfortable and well cared for while owners are away, while also giving owners peace of mind that their home and pets are being treated with respect and responsibility at all times.

Although I do not have a fenced yard, I live in a beautiful golf course gated community with tons of space for long walks. I do have one cat who is friendly with other pets. If your pet is one to cuddle they will be allowed on beds and couches or if you prefer them to be crated I will follow along with your instructions as well.

While I provide attentive, compassionate care and take every reasonable precaution to ensure your pet's safety and well-being, pet owners remain responsible for disclosing any medical conditions, behavioral concerns, allergies, or special care requirements prior to services.

About: I’ve spent nearly two decades around dogs — from working in pet resorts and vet offices, where I trained dogs and their owners using structured obedience, clear communication, and mutual respect. My background in working with dogs shaped a disciplined, no-nonsense approach that builds real trust between dogs and their people. Whether it’s a rowdy puppy or a dog with serious behavioral issues, I focus on building lasting confidence, not quick fixes. My schedule leaves solid blocks of time for pet care throughout the week, and I’m currently building out a dedicated training and kennel space at home. I’m available for boarding and daycare on weekends and weekday evenings, with flexibility for drop-offs, check-ins, and training sessions throughout the day I live on an acre of land near a reservoir, with a fenced area and a dedicated kennel and training space being built out inside my home. I own three well-socialized dogs of my own who are comfortable around visiting pups, so your dog will have company. I use crates when appropriate and closely supervise every interaction to keep all the dogs safe and comfortable.
