Kelly was an excellent sitter for us. She communicated well, before the sit and during the sit. When we got home, the dogs and our guinea pig were happy and well. Kelly was dependable and showed up exactly on time. The house was well maintained and clean when we arrived home. We would definitely host Kelly again.
Cleo is a very lucky puppy dog to have been cared for by Matt & Lisa! We’ve had quite a few sitters over the last 2 years with TH, and I have no reservations saying that they were the best! First, communication was fabulous from the start. They put me at ease before they ever got here. Throughout the sit, there were regular updates and pictures. They were so very attentive to Cleo, and even ventured out with her on trail walks (Cleo’s favorite thing in the world). They handled her medications with no problem. It was obvious that my nervous pup was at ease and loved them, as she ended up sleeping with them! I’d have Matt & Lisa again in a heartbeat, and would recommend to anybody!
Joe was an excellent sitter and gave us so much peace of mind while we were away, dealing with one of our pup’s surgery recovery, which was an unexpected circumstance just prior to our trip. We felt fully comfortable and were so grateful to know that all of our dogs and our home were in such good hands during his stay. Highly recommend!
Cindy was great, couldn’t have asked for a better sitter experience! Communication was great both before and during the sit. Cindy was really helpful and flexible with arrival and departure arrangements. I came back to a happy dog and a well cared for house, can thoroughly recommend 🙂
Cindy is an absolutely fantastic sitter and we feel very lucky to have had her care for our dog and our home whilst we went on our family holiday. Her communication before and throughout our sit was fantastic, and she even took our dog to the vet when he needed an unexpected checkup. She took great care of him and sent daily updates including videos and photos of their time together. We could tell that he felt very relaxed in her company. Thank you so much Cindy - it is a real godsend to have someone so kind and caring to take care of your pets and home and we would be delighted to have Cindy back again in future.
Cyndi was fabulous. I'd describe her as the no fuss no muss dog sitter. While some dog sitters need guidance on every little detail, Cyndi was completely self-sufficient. She left the home in perfect shape and totally adored my pup. I'd gladly welcome her back anytime!
Lisa and Matt were absolutely fantastic sitters for us and our dog, Moose. Not only were they flexible when our flight was changed last minute, they also were able to stay an extra day to accommodate the changes. They communicated with us promptly during the scheduling and planning process for the housesit. They arrived on time on the (re)scheduled day. They acclimated to our dog very quickly and gave us piece of mind as we left by taking him on a walk to avoid his separation anxiety. We chatted every day and exchanged photos of Moose playing at the beach and in the yard. He was so happy! No problems were encountered with the house. Even our neighbors commented on how friendly and kind Lisa and Matt both were and how they really cared for Moose. The house was spotless when we returned. Everything in proper order, better than we left it. We can't thank them enough for the excellent experience!
Robert and Biljana are absolutely the best sitters you could ever get. We have used them several times already. They have always arrived at the stated date and time. They are eager to receive any and all instructions and will follow them as stated. They keep us informed almost every day on our dogs and send pictures regularly. They always go above and beyond their duties. Robert has fixed a few things around the house without being asked. They buy things for our dogs and have even trained our dogs on certain issues. They made a concerted effort to get to know the neighbors and talked up our dogs to all of them. They will be discreet with any and all information given. We really appreciated all their hard work and effort. They have certainly elevated the bar for the next sitters. Biljana took very good care of our plants and spoiled our dogs to excess. They now expect the same from us!! We will welcome them back anytime. Hiring them is a decision that will not be regretted.
Ryan is a great house and pet sitter and I definitely recommend him. He took excellent care of my apartment and my dog for peace of mind when I was away. He is professional, friendly, and experienced.
Veronica House sat for us for a month. She cared for our two Dobermans and our cat. Veronica is so enthusiastic about animals. They immediately pick up on her joy and love for them. When some bold alligators made our dogs’ normal exercise routine unsafe, she was faced with the challenging situation of keeping two Dobermans with very different temperaments exercised and entertained in the height of Florida summer with its bugs, heat, and humidity. She met this challenge by taking the dogs for individual outings. She drove our young social dog to the dog park, finding the times when he would most likely have other large playmates and drove our socially anxious dog to the quiet areas of town for walks. This took a lot more time than our normal routine, but it kept our dogs safe and happy. A lasting benefit for us is that our younger dog, once a terror in the car, now rides much more calmly and our anxious dog, once fearful of what the car ride would bring, now happily hops in. Our cat was so content and well-groomed upon my return, it was obvious that she had been getting lots of daily attention, too. Veronica communicated with us on all the happenings with our pets and property every day. I came home to happy and healthy pets and a well cared for home. We feel so fortunate to have had Veronica as a house sitter and look forward to her sitting for us again.

Megan has been absolutely wonderful with our dog everytime we have had to go out of town. He loves her and her two kids and it lessens his anxiety so much to be able to be with a family verses kenned at our vet. She is so sweet to and texted us pictures while we were away of buddy having a great time! Such a peace of mind for this doggie mama who hates to leave her baby behind when I travel just knowing he is being loved on and in a family environment while I’m gone!!! 5 stars (would give 10 if that was an option!) 100% choose Megan to watch your pet!!!
Megan was awesome! I was down visiting, and last minute, on fathers day, my partner and I wanted to stay I little later and go out on the jetskiis. Unfortunately, I can't bring my dog on the jetskiii She answered right away and was knowledgeable about dogs, training, and behavior. She carries insurances and has you sign a vet release just incase something happens. She has a fenced in yard and a large dog who is other dog friendly. My kid got along fine with him. Will definitely be keeping her in mind when visiting next time
Was vacationing in the Keys and needed someone reputable to look after my fur babies for a few days during our visit when we had outings that took us into Miami. Margaret was so professional and even brought someone else along to make sure our babies got extra love. My two girls are picky about who they like, and they loved their visits and were relaxed and tired by the time we got home, I know they had a great day while we were out. We even got picture updates on how they were doing. 10/10 would highly recommend Margaret and her team and will use them again next time we are in town!
Margaret provides an extremely professional service. She took wonderful care of our Otto when our family needed help. I highly recommend her as a pet sitter!
We love Margaret!!! She has taken care of our basset hound Dexter for a year until we moved away. Margaret is wonderful and Dexter always looked forward to her visits and walks. Your pet will be in good hands with Margaret! We would still be using her services if we were in Marathon! Thanks for all you do to take great care of pets! Becky and Jerry Forrester
I wish I could give Margaret 10 stars.... I can't say enough positive about our experiences with her. We were new to the Marathon area and had to fly to Oregon for a family emergency.... not knowing anyone in the area yet, we reached out to Margaret. She was professional, kind, excellent with my two dogs and more. Our pups ended up loving her, and were very well cared for... continuous communication and pictures from her visits.... Don't hesitate to contact her- - - I've used other 'pet sitters' before - and Margaret is hands-down the BEST!
Margaret is the best, she takes very good care of our pets and our pets love her so much. She goes above and beyond to take care of our dogs.
Pet Sitters are excellent. I feel very comfortable with having them stay with my precious pets and you can trust them in your home. I have known Margaret for years and she has always been consistant and the same goes for her sitters. My pets love the treats she provides. I highly recommend her services.
Margaret was wonderful with our puppy Tiki! I would highly recommend her and will call on her again in the future. She is very professional, trustworthy and reliable. She was flexible and accommodating with the changes to our schedule. Your furry babies will be in good hands with Margaret!
Margaret has been sitting my baby Dega for over 10 years. She’s absolutely the best! You can tell by how excited she is to see her, even if she’s walking someone else’s pet up the road. Dega can hardly be restrained in her excitement to see Margaret. That says it all.
Margaret is very organized and thorough. I highly recommend her for taking care of your loved ones.
Margaret has been pet sitting for me since 2014. She is a great pet sitter.
Bryan is, without a doubt, the best option in Key West. He helped us at the last minute, was kind and professional, and our pup fell in love with him! Bryan sent photos and updates for the entire 24-hour stay, allowing us to have a wonderful time away.
We were staying on vacation in Key West and decided to take a day trip to the Dry Tortugas. So we needed a pet sitter for that day and through a google search contacted Brian at Wagnificent Pet Sitting. He answered promptly, set a time to come and meet Ace our English Labrador and we went over all the care details. We immediately felt very comfortable with Brian and so did Ace. The next day we left for our trip with no worries about our boy being in good hands. We were very confident with Brian especially since we would have no cell service all day. Brian sent us a text and photo of Ace during his visit which we received when we got back. Ace was happy as a clam and well taken care of. We highly recommend using Wagnificent Pet Sitting when you’re in Key West !! Ace says 4 paws up!🐾🐾🐾🐾 Thank you again Brian! 😄
Brian was a life saver. I needed someone very last minute to watch my little Pom while I went out snorkeling for the day. I do not trust anyone with my little girl but I will absolutely use Brian. He was easy to work with and very caring. THANK YOU AGAIN BRIAN!!!
Bryan was super helpful and so willing to care for our elderly special needs beagle. There was a mixup for our ferry reservations so we are still not sure if we will be able to use his pet care services but he couldn’t have been more helpful!! A very nice guy!
We came to Key West for the day and wanted to take a snorkel trip. Bryan was our savior. He sent us pictures that made us feel comfortable that CoCo was happy and cared for. He was super responsive and we will definitely use him next time we are in Key West.
Bryan took care of our pup today who walked out a happy boy. You can tell when your best friend has had a good day and Jumper obviously did. Also loved the pics; they tell it all!
Bryan really hooked me up, I called at 10 pm the night before his service as me and some coworkers had a spontaneous boating experience. He took my 10 week old black lab Stella in no problem for 6 hours and she seemed to have a great time! Bryan sent me pictures throughout the day to put me at ease , and in result helped me to have a great time. To top it off he kept her entertained so she would sleep on our journey back home. Couldn't have had a better price, process and experience!
Bryan took such great care of our pup! We received text updates with photos so we knew Chopper was doing great which made our time in Key West worry-free. It was obvious Chopper was well taken care of and made a friend in Bryan. Bryan is friendly, prompt and professional and I will definitely book Bryan again.
Bryan provided professional, courteous , and extremely friendly service. I felt quite comfortable leaving my two dogs with him. He even kept us up-to-date with text about the dogs behavior. I would not hesitate going to Bryan again.
Bryan is a pleasure to work with, he is polite and punctual. He was so sweet to our 15 year old schnauzer, he knew when she wanted to walk the neighbourhood, or just meander around and sniff some bushes. We will use Bryan any time we are in Key West, in fact we wish he would move to Toronto as Zulu misses him ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Had to get my house tented for termites and this option would be the least stressful option for both me and my furry best friend. Only downside.. I think I'll have to buy a kitty condo house for home bc my cat looked so happy and comfy in it when I came to pick him up this morning 🤣 …
We knew our doggo was in right place for daycare as soon as we met Elle & Emily. Extremely nice people who love dogs. It showed all over their faces & our baby had a very good time!
This was Poi's first time at a pet resort. He got to stay there when we were in keys because of separation anxiety. When we picked him up he was happy and calm. The prices were fair...the people were super nice. They paid attention to his diets and meds. I would definately use them again!! A note pay attention to there drop off and puck up times!
5 Star+ Kudos to Abigail & Stitch! Excellent staff! Their facility is clean, spacious, professional and was simply a fun place for our dog to hang out! Rachel and staff were patient in working with us on boarding dates as we traveled from out of town. We had full confidence in their capabilities of taking care of our dog which allowed us to have a wonderful vacation in Key West!
I've used both doggie daycare and overnight boarding services. Staff is very friendly and caring. Very clean facility. They even sent me cute pictures of my pup during her stay with them.
I was so disappointed to leave this review. After making the reservation for my three dogs, I read some unpleasant reviews on other social media of this boarding facility. I did a random drop in visit to check it out for myself, and make sure they had everything they needed as far as vaccines for my dogs. My first visit the lady working was sitting at a table on her phone. I asked if I could see the room where my dogs would be staying, and she told me she wasn’t really supposed to let me back there but open the door anyway. I saw kennels with dogs that had no water in their bowls. The area where the dogs are kept was very warm as well at only 9 AM in the morning. So I know that the room gets hotter throughout the day. She pulled out my paperwork and told me the vaccines that were required. So I thanked her and went about my day. A week later, because I was still uncertain if I would end up leaving my dogs there due to the bad reviews, I did another random stop-in visit. When I asked to cancel my reservation, they didn’t even have my paperwork. They said they had no record of my reservation. I know they did because the lady pulled out my paperwork the week prior when I stopped in to visit. This place is just not professional and the quality of care is not there. I was willing to spend almost $1800 to board my three dogs for 10 days. I will never use this boarding facility And if I could give zero stars I would. Stay away from this place. I will be calling the owner Dr. Lisa on Monday as well because she may not be aware of what’s going on at her facility.
Would never leave my pups there again. First red flag was I got there just before 8am to pick up and they were so flabbergasted because they said they had just got there and they hadn't let the dogs out to potty yet and asked me to wait so they could go potty. Why weren't they let out yet by 8am? The "tech" lady was so rude to me. I was assured multiple times I could bring my own food, treats, toys, blankies etc for a 4 night stay for my two Goldens. When I went to pick them up their stuff hadn't even been touched. Blankets still rolled and packed exactly as I packed them, treats sealed and unopened. They spent 4 days without their treats, comfort toys, chew toys, blankets, or even FOOD. Their food hadn't been touched and someone even tried to justify that they wouldn't eat and that they had to sprinkle their treats in their food to tempt them. Funny, since their treat bag was still sealed. When I asked why their treats were sealed and weren't given to them the "tech" said they gave them their own treats, Milkbones, and was that Ok? I said no, my older dog doesn't like and won't eat milkbones, and I brought their treats because that's the treats I wanted them to have. She rolled her eyes at me and said, "well, I wasn't here when they were dropped off so I'm not responsible for any of these instructions." She offered no apology or explanation, just kept giving me attitude like I had no right to be upset. Same eye roll and attitude when i asked why they weren't goven their blankets or chew toys. I'm confused what she thought the bag labeled with their names and filled with toys and treats and blankets and food was for, if not for my dogs??? I got my dogs home and one drank water for about 5 minutes straight, not an exaggeration. The other about tripped over herself running a beeline to their food bowl and started gulping it down like she hadnt seen food in days. I'll be honest, I don't think my dogs were properly cared for. I think they were downright neglected. I was also refused access to their housing area, stating it was some protocol. I would put money that they had no food or water the way my dogs gorged when we got home. I called to speak to the owner, a vet of all things, at All Animal Clinic. I was told she's not available for at least a week. I said that was unacceptable, explained the situation, and was told by the manager of the vet side that she would reach out to the vet owner personally and call me back. No call back. Since they don't seem to take possible animal neglect as a serious matter, I decided to go to the public to warn other pet parents against this place. That "tech" needs to be fired and has no business being in charge of living things that have no voice for themselves. And to make it worse, my younger dog has been flinching everytime I raise my had to pat her today, and I'm worried what that may imply. Never again would I trust my sweet pups to this place!
Disappointing experience! Will start with the mandated fecal exam. Be forewarned they don’t accept a yearly fecal exam with proof of monthly medication. Their associated “vet” charged $75 for testing my two dogs so they could be boarded. Once there, we were told we had to provide an emergency number for someone who could pick up the dogs if we would not be able to immediately pick them up if called to do so 🤷♀️🤷♀️🤷♀️. We were boarding them because we weren’t available. We were going to be on a boat for the day. Ended up just giving them a number. My dogs have been boarded many times without problems. I brought them a couple of quick to eat bones for each of them for each day and a couple of low value plastic bones that do like to chew on during the day. They do best when they have something to chew on when bored. When we returned, our younger pup was clearly anxious when I saw her. They returned all the quick to eat chew bones I had sent with them and found out they had withheld the chew bone toys, as well ??? No explanation given. She reported they had done good and didn’t seem anxious. As I was about to leave, she told me my younger pup had broken one of her teeth. Her canine tooth was broken to her gum line?? I can only imagine the poor girl chewing on the metal gate without the toys/chews that I had specifically brought in for them. Not a good experience to say the least.
They won’t take my 9month old puppy just cause she isn’t fixed yet. She’s not even in heat at all and needed to be boarded for just two nights!! With such limited dog boarding in the keys, that’s just ridiculous. Never heard of such a thing.
When planning our trip to Key West I contacted Abigail and Stitch about our 11 year old Shorkie boarding with them during our stay. In the conversation I made sure to explain that Abbie has never boarded before. They assured me that they had boarded several pets like Abbie that had not been boarded before and they knew how to take care of them. We dropped Abbie off and the next afternoon I received a call from Abigail and Stitch informing me that I needed to come and pick her up. The employee told me that Abbie had tried to bite two employees and her anxiety level was such that they weren’t able to get her out of her suite to go outside. Abbie has never attempted to bite anyone nor has she acted aggressively but I understand that she could behave differently given she was in an unfamiliar setting. The staff wasn’t willing to work towards any solution to remedy the situation We now were in a situation where we needed to find another boarding possibility as our accommodations didn’t allow pets or end our vacation. Luckily Keys Animal Care Center went out of their way to accommodate Abbie. Each time I called to check on her they said she was exhibiting no signs of anxiety and hadn’t acted aggressively nor had she attempted to bite anyone. If you are thinking about using Abigail and Stitch for your vacation needs I would urge you to reconsider. I am very grateful for the Keys Animal Care Center and their staff for caring for Abbie.
The best pet sitter ever! Mirka loves and cares for all her clients as if they were her own dogs. One of my dogs is afraid of all people but not Mirka — she’s the only person I trust when I need someone to care for my dogs. She provides play, down time, good structure, and human and dog time. I’m jealous my Velcro dog doesn’t even glance back at me when I drop her off since she’s so happy to be at Pawadise 😄
Mirka, the owner, is extremely thorough, kind, and absolutely amazing with dogs. We are so lucky to have found her! Our dog Miley had a hard start in life being a rescue and Mirka was so patient with her. I cant Recommend her and her business enough!
Phone number has a VM to "text" for a reply and then NO REPLY after texting. I don't know about you, but we need someone responsible as our dog is a very important part of our family. That's too bad as there aren't many other choices in the area. What happened to common courtesy? Especially as a "business owner". Bad business and frustrating.
We were traveling in the Keys and needed a sitter for our dog while we took a trip to Dry Tortugas. I googled pet sitters and Pawadise piped up with a 5 star rating. They are friendly and truly love dogs. Our dog loved his experience and wanted to stay longer which is very rare for him. I would highly recommend this business and will use them again in future visits to Key West!
Mirka is amazing!!! She watched my baby (dog) while my family and I went diving, then again on super short notice the next day! At first I was a little worried because she didn’t have a shop, but her yard had a trampoline, pool, fence and was such a great little area for doggies! She sent me photos of all the doggies playing and having fun- Mirka is awesome!!! I’m so happy I found someone that could take care of Bear (my animal) on such short notice!! Mirka helped socialized my dog by getting her to play and swim with the other puppies!! IF THERE WERE TEN STARS, SHE WOULD GET THEM!!:)
Visiting Key West for vacation and needed a doggy daycare. Dropped my baby off for the day and she was so happy when we picked her up. Very sweet, took adorable pictures. Recommend.
Needed a place to leave my dog for a few nights, she responded quickly and efficiently! Will definitely use next time I’m in town!
Have not been impressed over the last couple of years with the selection compared to other stores I used to shop at in other areas.
Resonable rates and Polor dog was worn out frim all the play!
The best!
Very nice staff. Alison is a very kind pet sitter. Large place might can sleep on property but call first. She even cared for my pet dog. Love it!
Alison is very flexible and has good communication skills. She took care of our 2 dogs in her home so we could spend the day going to the Dry Tortugas. I felt that my dogs were in good hands. I highly recommend her services and would not hesitate to use her for doggie petsitting again.
Alison took my pup in on fairly short notice. She was warm, flexible & communicative. Her facility was safe & comfortable. Radar was clearly in good hands for his stay. I would not hesitate to use her services again. -WW
Excellent place to take your dog. She is wonderful with them. Would definitely use her again if I'm in the area
Super nice, took good care of our little one for a Tortugas Day Trip!
