“Our pup had such a great time staying with Patricia! We came to the area for a wedding and she kept him for the weekend. It was such a joy to see pictures of our fur baby having a blast with new friends, and we highly recommend booking with her!”

“Kyle was absolutely amazing with our dog, Stormy, while we were away for a week over Christmas break. He truly treated Stormy like family and kept us updated the entire time with pictures and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind. Kyle took Stormy on walks to the park, gave him a bath, and even went above and beyond by making him a special Christmas steak dinner complete with mashed potatoes! It was clear Stormy was happy, loved, and well cared for. From now on, Kyle will definitely be our go-to dog sitter. We couldn’t recommend him more highly!”

“Jeff is an absolutely amazing caregiver for dogs. We had a our dog stay with him for an extended stay during a family emergency and could not have been more pleased. When our dog ran out of food, Jeff even drove to the store to purchase our dog's particular brand to avoid any tummy troubles. Jeff loves dogs and gives them plenty of indoor time, outdoor time, snuggle time, and love. Our dog adores him, and so do we.”

“Mackinzey - we can’t thank you enough for watching Aspen for us during our wedding week! You are the absolute best & we couldn’t be more grateful for your time & patience that it took for you to make sure that he could be part of our ceremony! Thank you so much!”

“James and Nancy were absolutely fantastic sitters for Dobby and Troubles! From the very beginning, their communication was clear, consistent, and reassuring. We received regular updates and photos, which made us feel completely at ease knowing our pups were in such good hands. Not only did they provide excellent care, but they also went above and beyond by sharing helpful local recommendations and suggestions during our trip. Their thoughtfulness and attention to detail truly made a difference. Dobby and Troubles came home happy, relaxed, and clearly well-loved. We couldn’t ask for a better experience and will definitely book with James and Nancy again. Highly recommended!”

About: I enjoy cats and have worked in cat rescue for decades. I own cats a few years over the course of my lifetime and mostly the lack thereof has been due to my rental housing situation for the past 20 years. I’m a big supporter of rescues and a big believer that cats need a long-term housing stability. Rental situations have proven CAT astrophic out here in the Florida Keys as it is the top reason there are so many abandoned and feral cats.

About: I've taken care of many different types of cats and understand that each has their own personality and ways of interacting, or not, if they choose. I take things nice and slow and watch body language cues, learned through my Fear Free training. I adjust to what they want and you want and go from there.
About: I’ve lived with animals my entire life. Even when I moved away from home for college I would fill my free time with fostering dogs and cats. I have some prior experience providing basic training to dogs and I have experience administering multiple types of medication. I’m currently working full time but will be transitioning into my PhD in the fall. Currently, I cannot house anyone in my home but I am free for very early morning and late afternoon walks and check ins! I care for your pets as if they were my pets. I can adapt to needs and am happy to give as much enrichment, love, and attention as you and your pet desire!

About: Recently moved back to Islamorada. 6 years I used to work as a Kennel Attendant, and Groomer's Assistant. Supervising and cleaning up after dogs big and small, While I know the job can sometimes be challenging, I also know how rewarding it can be. I walk daily on my own so exercise and being active would be no problem to incorporate, I have experience working with even the biggest of dogs and letting them know who's Alpha. I am sensitive to dogs needs regarding hot pavement, and would work to do my best to keep them in shaded or softer areas for walking. Since I worked as an attendant and bather, a simple bath and brush would be easy to arrange if shampoo and towels are available and your pet feels safe having a stranger do it. I would love being able to provide that little extra to make your dog feel like a personal client and special friend. I work a rather unpredictable schedule, but often have off weekends, where I'm home almost the entirety of the day if you check with me I can best let you know if I can host your pup. I care for a very very nice dog named Finley who would love a friend to hang out with, we have an outdoor porch and a big grassy yard, and I stay close by, playing with toys between chores or cuddling while watching a movie. There are also parks around if you feel comfortable having your pup come with me on a longer walk or to socialize with others. I am looking for more even tempered dogs to host but good playful energy is welcomed if they get along with others.

“We took a last minute day trip & was in need of someone to help with our pups. Caitlin was an absolute treasure! She came in the morning to meet our babies & came back to let them out and feed them! We are so grateful. Thank you so much, Caitlin!”

About: I grew up on a farm for 20 years and worked as a vet assistant for 10 years. Very experienced around all animals and not afraid to take on big, energetic or challenging pets. I’m a very nice, calm person that I almost guarantee your pet will love. I have a flexible job and can check on your pet as many times as you need.

“Chartotte (my pitt) and I were thrilled with the care given by Andrea and Bill. They cared for my Charlotte for 14 days over the holidays. They sent me pictures and updates of my baby with each visit. Andrea and Bill were very responsible and took 'above and beyond' the call of duty precautions to make sure Charlotte was safe. I would highly recommend this couple.”

“Our mini schnauzer had a great time with Patricia. We could tell she was loved and enjoyed her visits while we were exploring the Everglades and Biscayne National Parks. If we find ourselves back in the area again we would definitely put our trust in Patricia again. Thanks for taking great care of our pup.”

“James was an excellent host for Winston! He picked up our request last minute the day before and accommodated us perfectly on our stay in Key Largo. The backyard space was perfect for Winston’s energy and we could tell he enjoyed his stay as well.”

“Jessica was an amazing dog sitter for my dog Toby 🐶🦴. From the start, she was super friendly, reliable, and clearly loves animals. Toby can sometimes be a little shy around new people, but he warmed up to her right away, which says a lot. She kept me updated while I was away and made sure Toby got plenty of attention, walks, and playtime. When I came back, he was happy, relaxed, and clearly well taken care of. I’d absolutely recommend Jessica to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog sitter. Toby and I will definitely be booking with her again in the future!”

About: I had the good fortune to retire early at 53. Recently moved permanently to Key Largo. I have the time to properly care for your fur baby in your home or do walks or drop in visits.

I like to teach each dog something as I interact with them. I enjoy training and highly encourage play and exercise. I’ve had dogs all my life. Many different sizes and breeds. I promised to love, protect and care for every one from the first day to the last. I will do the same for your furry friend every time I care for them. I can watch any kind of dog, young, old, energetic or chill. I’m retired and my girlfriend works from home. We have the time to watch your fur baby every day without distractions. Can provide care during weekdays or weekends. We keep our puppy inside our house. Will do the same with your pup. We exercise her on walks around the neighborhood and runs in the back yard.

“Kristin was increíble. She was so beyond lovely to me and specially to Remi. I thank you so much for taking care of him. I would pick Kristin over anyone to take care of my little baby. ?”

About: I have been pet sitting for years! I previously worked as a dog groomer, but retired and moved on to human hair! I have experience working as a pet sitter at Zoomies Pet Villas in Key Largo. I’ve had the joy of caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities—from tiny teacup pups to large, lovable giants. Whether your dog is full of playful energy or prefers a slower pace, I tailor my care to meet their unique needs. I’m also experienced with administering medications, including oral and topical treatments, so you can feel confident your pet is in safe hands.

There is a sandy area to dig, and plenty of room to lounge in the sun!
About: I just like to spend time and show love to all the fur friends out there. Sure thing, bud, I’ll pat you on the head. I’m out here walking, might as well bring some friends along. Let’s go for a nice ol’ stroll, buddy. Smell the outdoors. Take in the breeze. We’re running around until we’re tired. Then we go for some snacks. Then we’re falling asleep on the floor and do it all over again when we wake up.

“Kyle communicated well! He did an in person meet and greet and followed all instructions for caring for my boy! He advised of his mood and what he enjoyed while sprinting for him. My boy really liked Kyle! I will definitely be using him in the future as well as referring him to others. Thank you Kyle!”

“Lovely young lady! Patient, flexible and very knowledgeable. My new rescue is not an easy pup. He has trust issues and can be intimidating but she handled him like a real pro! Walking two dogs together is always a challenge for me but she did it beautifully. I trust her fully and highly recommend her.”

“Angelina is amazing! She’s so patient, reliable, and genuinely cares about dogs. Our girl absolutely loves her walks with Angelina — you can tell she feels comfortable and excited every time. She always sends the sweetest updates and photos, which makes us feel at ease while we’re away. We’re so grateful to have found someone who treats our pup with such kindness and attention. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who’s dependable and trustworthy!”

“Zoe is amazing, attentive and caring. There was a medical emergency that happened to my fur baby and Zoe went above beyond for my pupper! She kept me updated and handled the situation flawlessly. Will book again!”
