About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with over 40 years of hands-on experience caring for dogs from puppyhood through their golden years. I’ve had two wonderful dogs during that time, both raised from pups and loved through every stage of their lives. I understand the joy, energy, and occasional mess that comes with puppies—as well as the patience and gentle care older dogs need. Whether it’s playtime, walks, feeding, or just good company, I treat every pet as if they were my own. You can trust me to provide dependable, loving care while you’re away. Im a dedicated middle school teacher so I naturally have a nurturing heart and structured schedules. I’m off for the summer and home early in the afternoons during the school year, giving me plenty of time to provide attentive, consistent care. I recently said goodbye to my beloved dog of 15 years, Bolty. While i’m not quite ready to welcome a new furry friend of my own, my heart (and home) are still full of love to give. Pet sitting allows me to share that love and care with your pet, treating them like part of my family while you’re away. I live in a peaceful, pet-friendly community that’s perfect for walks and outdoor time. My home features a securely fenced-in yard where your pup can safely explore, play, or relax in the sun. With quiet streets and plenty of walking routes, I love getting outside for daily strolls and exercise. Inside, your pet will be treated like family—receiving plenty of loving attention, belly rubs, and companionship. Whether they enjoy playtime or just curling up for cuddles, I tailor the care to what makes them feel happiest and most at home.

“The BEST of the Best! Victoria, is patient, calm demeanor, caring, mindful and certainly up for the challenge of my different personality/energy leveled, big babies. Your fur babies will love her too!”

“Melissa has been so good to myself & my new little puppy, Bear! She is very flexible and communicates well- not only with updates (pictures & messages), but she is also able to provide input with any questions I may have. She is always attentive to Bear’s needs, and goes out of her way to spend the extra time with him that a puppy needs. She has made this experience easy and comfortable, so I have no worries leaving my puppy in her care. I would recommend Melissa over and over again!”

“Kathleen has been a lifesaver, stepped in at the very last minute after I began fostering a dog and needed coverage for a long work day 2x a week. Raider obviously adores her and she is prompt, thorough and very loving with Raider. I also scheduled an extra visit when I had an unexpected meeting and she was able and willing! She has had to roll with some issues as he is a new foster, out of shelter for 6 months and we are just getting a routine down. Thank you Kathleen!”

“Alaina is clearly a big dog person and Bandit liked her immediately. It’s comforting to know that she treats him like her own. I’m very happy to have Alaina’s help in taking care of my fur baby.”

“Jessica walked my dog, Zoey, for the first time and I was nervous about how Zoey would react to a new person as she is very anxious. Jessica was able to get Zoey out and ready for a walk! I'm very grateful for her!”

Christina W.

“Joe has been walking my dog 3 days a week for the last few months. He is very reliable, trustworthy, and great with my dogs…I Highly recommend him”

Scott R.

“Natalia is so reliable and I’m so comfortable having her walk our not-so-typical dog. Cleo is delighted to see Natalia and I know a bit disappointed when I return because my walks aren't nearly as fun as hers! Thank you!”

Erin S.

“Kari is very punctual. She shows up on time every morning. My puppy, Greta, loves her and they get along great together. Kari also has the energy to keep up with my young Labrador and they have fun together. Thank you.”

Scott M.

“Gonna was awesome. Being a past surgical tech made it even better, I knew she would take good care of my baby Lulu! She was kind and treated my pet as if they had been friends since her birth. She was even able to walk my dog further than I was able to which was amazing in itself. If I needed to come back to Vero Beach and needed some help, she'd the only person I would look up no matter the fees. She's a wonderful person and dog sitter!”

About: I have owned cats and dogs my entire life. I have done various pet sitting jobs for neighbors, friends, and family, as well as for the awesome client base that I have built through Rover and through word of mouth. My daughters and I volunteered at the Humane Society for a few years, and we absolutely loved the work that we did there and the experience that we gained from it. We worked with both the cats and the dogs there. We have also fostered animals at our home. I have experience with administering shots and medication, if needed. We are huge animal lovers and will give your fur babies wonderful care, along with so much love and attention. We also take care of other pets as well, such as bunnies, guinea pigs, birds, reptiles, fish, etc. Just ask! I’m very flexible and will even take last minute bookings if I’m available. I’m a self employed, homeschooling mom who’s mostly always around and ready to help when needed. I have a big house with plenty of room, as well as a big fenced in backyard. I have two daughters, ages 14 and 16, who are experienced animal lovers. We have four cats. I would prefer that your dog is comfortable around cats.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was a young teenager. I was called the “neighborhood pet sitter” and relied on by my neighbors for their pet care needs. I have had dogs and cats my entire life - they are special members of the family! My current fur babies are one dog, Luna, and two cats, Meer and Daisy. I have experience with boarding in home, overnight care, drop-in visits and dog walking. I have experience administering medications, vet visits as needed, and taking your pet for car rides! I will care for your pets as if they were my own. Animals are the purest form of unconditional love and I will return that love to them! I am in between jobs right now and have full availability for your pet care needs - overnights, walks, and check-ins. I have two cats and one dog of my own. Your pets will feel at home with me - I will adapt to their needs and routines so that they stay comfortable and happy. I will communicate and stay connected with pictures and videos while you’re away!

About: Former Flight Attendant training to become a Pilot! Home every night and off most days. Only gone for short periods of time. Excited to care for your pets! Flexible schedule with school to help care for your pets! Only gone for a couple hours a day. Most days I only leave to go to the gym and then Im back home to study! I am happy to have a meet and greet before the sitting so you feel more comfortable trusting me with your animal. I know your animals are part of your family and I expect to treat them as so.

About: I have cared for family dogs my whole life, and have had many occupations in which I cared for dogs of all sizes and all breeds, even some felines! I am also very comfortable with administering medicine if necessary! I have a very open schedule when it comes to pet care! I am a part time student, though my coursework is extremely flexible and I can accommodate most schedules. Safety is of utmost importance when it comes to pet care. Being that I have worked with dogs of all sizes, I am confident in the etiquette and body language that is required for any given situation.

About: I have always had dogs growing up, my most recent one I got when he was only 6 weeks old so I have raised him from a puppy still needing to be fed milk to a fully grown healthy furry friend. I am pretty flexible on times being available. I can come as early or as late as needed. Whenever works best for you and your pet just let me know. The pet will always have my full attention. I can play with your pet as long as needed, take them on many walks, assure there are no accidents, and make sure they are safe. If your pet is on a certain schedule I can follow that as well.
