“We had Ricardo take care of our 12-year-old dog, Hazel, for the day as a trial run before our upcoming vacation—and we couldn't be more pleased! Hazel can be a bit shy and slow to warm up to new people, especially at her age, but Ricardo was so patient, kind, and attentive with her. He really took the time to make her feel comfortable and at ease. Throughout the day, he kept us updated with several videos and sweet messages, which gave us so much peace of mind. Seeing Hazel happy and relaxed in the videos really reassured us that she was in good hands. By the time we picked her up, she was calm and clearly felt safe with him. We're so happy to have found someone we trust to watch over Hazel while we're away. Highly recommend Ricardo to anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter!”
“Yara did a wonderful job taking care of our dog Samantha this past weekend! She kept us updated with photos from their walks, which we really appreciated. You could tell Samantha was in great hands the whole time. Overall an excellent experience! We’ll definitely be back and will be recommending her to our friends!”
“The sitter I’ve used a few times was not available for my last trip so I searched for a new family. Happily I found Patty. We did a meet & greet so my senior lab and I could meet them and see her home & yard. It was an 8 day trip. Patty sent me photos and updates regularly which really put my mind at ease. I would not hesitate to leave my boy with Patty again!”
“Monica & Alonso took the best care of our beautiful Ginger. They were pacient and understood exactly what she needed to feel comfortable and open up. We received daily updates and plenty of pictures. When we picked Ginger up, it was clear that she had an amazing time and was cared for with love. We'll definitely come back ❤️”
“Can’t be more thankful. Will definitely use again and will recommend, London was so safe and they made me feel so great with constant updates with awesome videos. Fantastic!!”
About: Crecí rodeada de mascotas de todo tipo, por lo que tengo una conexión natural con los animales desde muy joven. Tengo experiencia atendiendo tanto a cachorros llenos de energía que quieren jugar todo el día, como a perritos mayores que solo buscan un lugar tranquilo para descansar con mucha paciencia. Sé cómo seguir estrictamente los horarios de alimentación y respetar las rutinas específicas de paseos de cada mascota. Como paso todo el día en casa, puedo ofrecer una supervisión constante y amorosa, garantizando que tu perrito nunca se sienta solo ni estresado y que disfrute al máximo de nuestros espacios. A typical day starts with a morning bathroom break in my secure fenced yard, followed by breakfast. Since I am at home full-time, your dog will enjoy constant supervision, companionship, and multiple potty breaks every 1-2 hours. I have dedicated playtime in the afternoon, short walks, and plenty of relaxation in my spacious living room. Before bedtime, I enjoy a quiet evening walk, ensuring your pet feels safe, happy, and fully integrated into my daily routine. I live in a beautiful, clean, and spacious two-story townhouse in the 33172 area. The house is completely smoke-free and secure. My biggest highlight is the large, fully fenced backyard with a gorgeous lake view where dogs can play safely. For extra safety, the front entrance is also gated and fenced, preventing any accidental escapes. Your pet will have full access to the open first floor and can comfortably relax on the furniture or the bed.
“This was a perfect fit for our furry boy. The meet and greet went very well, he did not want to leave. This was his first overnight with Mirta and her husband. They were very loving and hospitable and took great care of Ozzy. We received pictures and he had a good time playing with JJ. Location was perfect for us, and we'll def be back! Thank you Mirta.”
“I would definitely recommend Jennifer! She’s welcoming and loving. She sends pictures and keeps you up to date with your pet. She was amazing with my pup and I would recommend her to anyone !”
“I cannot say anything bad about Francesca. Her attentiveness towards my old dog was great. She knew we were nervous about leaving him for the day and she kept us updated on his day and put our minds at ease. She was so easy to communicate with beforehand. She’s definitely our go to for when we visit Miami again!”
“Stella loved Aisa and her mom. I loved how they kept me informed by sending me pictures and updates on her. Stella loved their big backyard where she is able to run around freely. By pick up time, Stella did not even want to leave of how much she enjoyed herself. Definitely booking again for my next trip :)”
“Ana and her family were amazing with our two mini goldendoodles! I was really anxious, as it was our first time dropping them off, but Ana put me completely at ease by sending constant updates with photos and videos. I could tell my girls were well cared for and loved on by Ana and her family. I will definitely be leaving my babies with Ana again! Highly recommend!!”
“Paula was a wonderful host! Coco had the best time playing in the grassed yards, sunbathing and relaxing under the trees, along with Paula's other dogs. We got constant communication, lots of photos and videos and daily updates. She also gave her the meds she needed, even gave her a bath at the end and washed and cleaned all her toys, blankets, etc. We could feel the love and dedication to our little baby during her stay and that is all we wanted, really - that Coco felt loved and safe the whole time we were away, like she feels with us!”
“Exceptional Care for Kofi – Highly Recommend Angela! Leaving our beloved schnauzer mix, Kofi, in someone else’s care is never easy, but Angela made the experience completely stress-free. Kofi has a medium energy level—he loves his playtime but also enjoys his rest—and Angela balanced his needs perfectly. From the moment we met, she took the time to listen to every detail about Kofi’s routine, including his meals, exercise, and play schedule, ensuring he felt comfortable and cared for. One of the things we appreciated most was how attentive she was to Kofi’s specific needs. She provided daily updates and pictures, just as we requested, which reassured us that he was happy and thriving. Angela and her sons also played a big role in keeping Kofi active and entertained, giving him plenty of walks, play sessions, and endless cuddles. It was heartwarming to see how much love and attention he was receiving. Angela also respected Kofi’s need for rest, allowing him to settle wherever he felt most comfortable. This level of attentiveness made it clear that she genuinely cared about his well-being. Though my husband and I missed him terribly, we never once worried because we knew he was in the best hands. If you’re looking for a pet sitter who will treat your dog like family, Angela is the one! We’re beyond grateful for her amazing care and wouldn’t hesitate to leave Kofi with her again.”
“Mercedes was absolutely amazing, she took care of our dog Pebbles while we were on our family vacation. Mercedes kept in constant contact and would send us daily updates and pictures of our little princess. I will definitely hire Mercedes again and I would definitely recommend her to anyone that is looking for a loving person to watch their pet.”
“Patricia and her girls are a dream team! They took care of my dog as if it were theirs. Kept me informed at all times and were very loving towards my dog. Will definitely consider them for next time!”
“Janeth was beyond awesome with my little ones! She took great care of them while I was out of town and kept in touch with me at all times sending updates throughout the day, as well as some pictures! I highly recommend her as a pet sitter! A+”
“Mariana was great taking care of Cooper! She was very sweet and updated us daily with photos and videos and took him on multiple walks. He looked very happy in all the photos. I highly recommend her for all your dog sitting needs!”
“She was amazing with my dog! Very attentive, kind, and reliable. She sent me photos and updates, and my pup was always happy and relaxed with her. I couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter. Highly recommend!”
“Lisany was really great with my puppy. He looked like he had a blast coming from her house. He smelled it really good and clean. I will definitely book again.”

“Jennifer and her daughter are responsible and truly love animals! They did everything I wrote in the notes. My cat liked them and even tried to lick them. They drove to my home immediately after I told them, through the camera, that my cat’s bowl was empty.”
“Deborah provides peace of mind for both fur baby & parent. This was my 2nd time with Deborah & I rebooked her for extra time- so glad I did. I could see from the pet cam how attentive & caring she was during each extended visit. She made such a difference for my Ellie - easing her insecurities. Love the pics & detailed report cards she sends- communication is great. I highly recommend Deborah & will continue to rebook with her- Thank you so much”
“Xiomara was a fantastic sitter for our cats! I felt so much more at ease on my vacation with her updates. One of our cats had a complicated medicine schedule that she accommodated, and she gave us extra updates on packages arriving etc. that were immensely helpful. I would love to work with Xiomara again!”
“Savanna is super sweet and really attentive. She took great care of my rabbits while I was out of town and followed all of my instructions without any issues. She kept me updated the whole time, which made me feel so much better being away. I felt completely comfortable leaving my pets with her. If you’re looking for a pet sitter on Rover, she’s the one! ☺️💓”

“This was our first time using a pet sitter from River and we couldn’t have been happier. Rachel was extremely professional and was great with our cats. We loved getting photo updates!”
“I was in a pinch to find someone to watch my cat and Ruth was able to watch her with no problems! Ruth gave me updates on how my cat was doing and always responded quickly to my messages. Will definitely be going back to Ruth in the future and would highly recommend!”
“I had a wonderful experience with José. He followed every instruction perfectly and was extremely professional throughout the entire stay. Communication was excellent, he always kept me updated and made me feel at ease while I was away. I would absolutely book with him again. Highly recommended!”
“Natalie was incredible! She dropped in and took care of my cat while I was away for a week. When I had her over to explain my cat’s maintenance, she took notes down, and followed them to a T! My cat is a very particular lady, so I’m so glad I messaged someone like Natalie who makes sure each of your pet’s needs are fulfilled while you are away. She sent multiple photos of my cat, cleaned up after her, played with her every day, and would message me daily updates on how she was doing. 10/10! I totally recommend Natalie to any cat people out there. Definitely will book again.”

“This is now Coco’s third time at Frank & Marlene’s for daycare, in addition to two overnight stays—and I couldn’t be more grateful to have found them! 🐾😍 They’re consistently communicative, keeping me updated and sending the sweetest photos throughout the day (which I absolutely love). Coco doesn’t even look back at drop-off anymore—and to me, that says everything! 💗 They’ve also been so flexible and understanding with any schedule changes, which makes a big difference. Thank you, again, for treating Coco like family and giving me such peace of mind. Highly recommend! 🙌💯”

I would be more than happy to provide your pets with care and affection! I am currently a university student, but I am taking a semester off, so I have an open availability. I am willing to work around any schedule that is most convenient for the client! I have a house apart from my apartment with my own pets, where there are no animals and plenty of space to run around. There is also a backyard area with a small patio and grass surrounding it. A small park is nearby as well which can be used at any time!

About: I have over 25 years of hands-on experience caring for my family pets and my own dogs, so animals have always been a meaningful part of my life. Over the years, I’ve cared for pets through every stage of life, from playful puppies to senior dogs who need extra patience, comfort, and attention. In addition to caring for my own pets, I also have more than 15 years of experience fostering and helping re-home dogs and cats. Through fostering, I’ve learned how important it is to be patient, gentle, and attentive to each animal’s unique personality, history, and needs. I’m comfortable caring for pets who may be shy, nervous, energetic, or still adjusting to new people and environments. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, loved, and cared for while giving their owners peace of mind. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else, and I treat that responsibility with the care and respect it deserves. My schedule is currently open for dog walks and drop-in visits Monday through Sunday, from 8:00 AM to 8:00 PM. I am also available for boarding and will do my best to keep your pet’s routine as familiar and comfortable as possible. During walks and drop-ins, you can expect dependable care, clear communication, and updates so you know how your pet is doing. I’m happy to help with feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, playtime, litter box care, medication reminders, and companionship depending on your pet’s needs. For boarding, I take the time to learn your pet’s routine, personality, comfort level, and any special instructions before their stay. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, relaxed, and cared for while giving you peace of mind while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and well-being are always my top priorities. Guest pets have access to a private, air-conditioned room where they can lounge, relax, and sleep comfortably. The room has a cozy pullout couch, plenty of natural light, and a private entrance, creating a calm and comfortable space for pets to feel at ease. I also have a private fenced patio that is separate from my backyard, as well as a larger backyard area that guest pets can enjoy with supervision. This gives pets space to stretch, explore, and get fresh air in a safe environment. I can also crate your dog if needed or preferred, and I will always follow your instructions closely when it comes to feeding, routines, sleeping arrangements, medication, walks, and any safety precautions. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care, and I take that responsibility seriously.

“We had Ricardo take care of our 12-year-old dog, Hazel, for the day as a trial run before our upcoming vacation—and we couldn't be more pleased! Hazel can be a bit shy and slow to warm up to new people, especially at her age, but Ricardo was so patient, kind, and attentive with her. He really took the time to make her feel comfortable and at ease. Throughout the day, he kept us updated with several videos and sweet messages, which gave us so much peace of mind. Seeing Hazel happy and relaxed in the videos really reassured us that she was in good hands. By the time we picked her up, she was calm and clearly felt safe with him. We're so happy to have found someone we trust to watch over Hazel while we're away. Highly recommend Ricardo to anyone looking for a caring and reliable pet sitter!”
“The sitter I’ve used a few times was not available for my last trip so I searched for a new family. Happily I found Patty. We did a meet & greet so my senior lab and I could meet them and see her home & yard. It was an 8 day trip. Patty sent me photos and updates regularly which really put my mind at ease. I would not hesitate to leave my boy with Patty again!”
“Can’t be more thankful. Will definitely use again and will recommend, London was so safe and they made me feel so great with constant updates with awesome videos. Fantastic!!”
“I would definitely recommend Jennifer! She’s welcoming and loving. She sends pictures and keeps you up to date with your pet. She was amazing with my pup and I would recommend her to anyone !”
“Exceptional Care for Kofi – Highly Recommend Angela! Leaving our beloved schnauzer mix, Kofi, in someone else’s care is never easy, but Angela made the experience completely stress-free. Kofi has a medium energy level—he loves his playtime but also enjoys his rest—and Angela balanced his needs perfectly. From the moment we met, she took the time to listen to every detail about Kofi’s routine, including his meals, exercise, and play schedule, ensuring he felt comfortable and cared for. One of the things we appreciated most was how attentive she was to Kofi’s specific needs. She provided daily updates and pictures, just as we requested, which reassured us that he was happy and thriving. Angela and her sons also played a big role in keeping Kofi active and entertained, giving him plenty of walks, play sessions, and endless cuddles. It was heartwarming to see how much love and attention he was receiving. Angela also respected Kofi’s need for rest, allowing him to settle wherever he felt most comfortable. This level of attentiveness made it clear that she genuinely cared about his well-being. Though my husband and I missed him terribly, we never once worried because we knew he was in the best hands. If you’re looking for a pet sitter who will treat your dog like family, Angela is the one! We’re beyond grateful for her amazing care and wouldn’t hesitate to leave Kofi with her again.”
“Mariana was great taking care of Cooper! She was very sweet and updated us daily with photos and videos and took him on multiple walks. He looked very happy in all the photos. I highly recommend her for all your dog sitting needs!”
“She was amazing with my dog! Very attentive, kind, and reliable. She sent me photos and updates, and my pup was always happy and relaxed with her. I couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter. Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs with many different personalities, energy levels, and backgrounds, including foster and rescue dogs coming from stressful environments such as shelters. This experience has taught me how to approach nervous, anxious, or uncomfortable dogs with patience, calm energy, and understanding. I focus on helping dogs feel safe, relaxed, and at home by respecting their pace and creating a peaceful, structured environment. I pay close attention to body language, behavior, and individual needs so each dog receives personalized care, supervision, affection, and plenty of positive interaction during their stay.

Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a clean, secure, fenced environment where dogs are always supervised and cared for with patience and attention. I carefully monitor dog interactions, energy levels, and play styles to help maintain a calm and positive environment. Dogs will have plenty of indoor space to relax and play comfortably in an air conditioned area, along with access to outdoor potty and play breaks in a secure fenced yard. I also provide regular updates, photos, and communication so pet parents can feel at ease while their dog is in my care
“Very grateful with Tiphany, we booked at the last minute and we were able to leave Rocky. She was very kind and helpful. She sent us pictures and status while we were away. 100% recommended. Thanks again.”
“Diana is a wonderful sitter and Neatle loves her! Dianna is attentive, responsible, meticulous, and most of all compassionate. Our dog has stayed with her a few times but the last time, our dog was a little under the weather and Diana was so careful about following instructions for medicine and food. What a wonderful dog sitter! We love her!”
“Teresa was great! She was flexible with drop off and pick up times and communicated daily on how my pet was doing. Will definitely be using her again! 5 stars!!”
“We were very fortunate to have booked Guina for the care our cat Noel for a week. She not only send us pictures and videos everyday, but was very affectionate with him. Her cat room is a cat amusement park, like a Hilton Hotel too.”
“Recomiendo el servicio de Francy al 100%. Cuidaron a mi perrito Milo con muchísimo amor y dedicación. Desde el primer día me enviaron muchas fotos y mensajes, manteniéndome informada a diario, lo cual me dio mucha tranquilidad. Milo siempre se veía contento, relajado y bien atendido. Adaptaron el ambiente a sus necesidades, le daban paseos y lo trataron con mucho cariño y paciencia. Se nota cuando alguien realmente ama a los animales. Volveria a dejarlos a cargo de Milo sin duda.”
“Teresa was amazing! She gave my dog all the attention, love and proper care while I was gone. She even taught him how to sit! I couldn’t be happier with her service and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her.”
“Had the best experience ever! She took multiple pictures a day and wrote a note on how they were. 10/10 recommend. She made it easy to stay in touch and made me feel relaxed knowing my dogs were in very safe hands. Thank you.”
“Zayra was great with my 2 yo shepherd/lab mix Harley. She kept her happy and entertained even during the really bad rainstorms in Miami and was great about letting us extend Harley’s stay as our travel plans changed last minute. She kept us updated and sent cute photos during our trip. Her own dog is super sweet & playful and instantly got along with and welcomed Harley.”
“Francin took care of my 2 dogs and WOW! She was extremely attentive, took the doggies to the park, gave me multiple updates throughout the day and sent so many pictures and videos. I will definitely be booking again! Thank you so much Francin for taking care of my doggies as if they were your own!”
