Pet Sitters in Miami Beach, FL

Deborah

Deborah is absolutely fantastic and I would not hesitate to use her again. She took great care of our pet family and house while we were gone and everything was sparkling clean on our return. We received updates and needed information while absent and honestly didn't worry at all while we were gone.

Amie

Amie is one of the best sitters I've ever interacted with. She went above and beyond to care for Mixon over the two and a half months I was away. Since he recently had been diagnosed with a kidney issue prior to my trip, I was worried about leaving him. She kept me informed on a daily basis (with pics!) about how he was doing and even spoke with my vet several times to make sure he was ok when he wasn't going to the bathroom regularly. I never had to worry once! She also did a great job with my plants and kept my home in clean and tidy condition. She was also very self-sufficient and organized - she took notes when she came over to meet Mixon & see the apartment prior to the sit! 10/10 would recommend Amie.

Monica & Matthew

Monica and Matthew were amazing! They provided regular updates and even took my dog to the vet when they noticed a mole on her eye seemed infected. I was so relieved that they caught it and took immediate action. My girls also loved them! Not only were they great dog sitters, but they also took excellent care of my home. It was spotless when I returned after 3 weeks of traveling, which was such a relief. I would definitely use them in the future if our schedules work out. Such a lovely couple! :)

Maria

Maria was an enjoyable and engaging house/pet sitter. In the current world of routine flight cancellations, Maria's originating flight was delayed which caused her and other passengers to miss their connecting flights. Maria navigated the process of getting booked on another flight and finding overnight lodging while maintaining timely contact with us about her itinerary change and her genuine concern for our plans. We think this demonstrated good composure, organizational skills, reliability and self-sufficiency for a young person. Maria took excellent care of our home and our dog, Lena. She walked Lena on a regular basis and sent pictures and videos of Lena. Upon arriving home, we could tell that Lena had warmed up nicely to Maria. We would highly recommend Maria for future house and pet sitting opportunities.

Yvenide

Yvenide did such an amazing job with our two fur babies (a cat and a dog)! She is very sweet, sent us daily photos and updates of our girls and was extremely reliable. We felt very much at ease knowing that she was taking such good care of our girls and our home. And, Kiki and Brownie loved having Yvenide take care of them! We would definitely recommend Yvenide for sits!!

Gabrielle

Gabrielle did a good job sitting. She communicated well with me before the sit and arrived a day prior to do a meet and greet. I enjoyed getting to chat with her a bit in person. Upon my return, everything appeared to have been taken care of, my cat seemed pleased and the place was left nice and tidy.

Franziska & Steffen

Franziska was such an amazing sitter! Extremely attentive, making sure to send me a daily update with a picture of Rio. Franzi was also super self sufficient and when it got back home, my home was just as clean as I left it. I definitely would recommend her to anyone!

Laurence

Larry was so great to have at the house. He was very thorough in his care of my parent, and left the house wonderfully cared for. He even went above and beyond. Windows more safe it felt like having my dad stay and babysit for me

Luzanna

Luzanna should be paid to do this - she was an absolute rockstar at communicating with us throughout our trip. Our pets took to her abnormally quickly & evidently remained happy as evidenced by her multiple photos + videos sent daily. This was our first experience having a sitter for us & it was nothing but positive. We are so grateful & welcome Luzanna into our home anytime in the future.

MICHAL

Michal and Mendel were amazing sitters!!! They cared for our senior dog and cat for two full weeks and gave us complete peace of mind while we were away. They came and stayed at our house the night before we left so we wouldn't have to worry about a thing before catching our early flight. We had a nice time chatting with them for a bit, and then they kept to themselves while we ran around making last-minute preparations. On top of basic pet care, they gave our cat daily medicine and subcutaneous fluids every other day and took care of cleanup when she had accidents outside of her litter box. We came home to happy pets and a clean home. They are good people and great sitters - I highly recommend them!

Sonia Sol

They are the best!!! I feel so comfortable with Sonia and Ezequiel taking care of my dog Venice (a 65 lb pit bull) which isn’t easy! If you have the opportunity to accept them, don’t hesitate for a moment!!

Agustin

They took care of my house for a month, very nice and kind couple. Quick to respond and keep me updated. Most importantly, they gave my kitty Empress so much love, and took amazing care of her. She was so happy with them. I am so grateful Empress was in such loving hands while I was away. Thanks so much!!

Janet

We had a great time at this house sit. We arrived the night before and Janet ensured we had a smooth handover and we met the animals.
Janet, the animals and the location of her home are a sitters dream.

Vivienne

We could not have hoped for a more enjoyable sit, Vivienne immediately made us feel very much at home, gave us a thorough list of information and was quick to respond to any and all communications.  Jenna and Foxy were two of the sweetest and best behaved dogs we have ever had the privilege of caring for.  The home's beautiful location right on the coast allowed for long beach walks every day.  The cats and chickens were easy to care for and we never wanted for fresh delicious eggs.  The house is outstanding architecturally, incredibly comfortable has a wonderful kitchen complete with an Aga (and a Aga cookbook) and an amazing sun room from which we enjoyed many glorious sunsets.  The en suite bedroom provided us with some of the best nights sleeps we've ever experienced only to be followed by breathtaking views of the sea and the Isle of Arran when we awoke.  During our stay we enjoyed meeting and getting to know the housekeeper and gardener who are lovely, knowledgeable and extremely helpful.  
We would welcome an opportunity to sit here again, and would not hesitate to recommend it to others.

Bridget

I thoroughly enjoyed my week looking after the splendid Minnie in Bridget and Douglas's very comfortable home, and exploring the lovely and surprising Isle of Man. Minnie is an absolute delight of a cat – a great character, affectionate and playful as well as independent, and he was a real pleasure to care for. Bridget was very kind and helpful, picking me up at the airport on my arrival, taking me on a tour of part of the island and giving me useful advice as well as patiently waiting while I did some food shopping.  She cooked a lovely meal in the evening and it was very good to get to know her and Douglas before they left. The house is an easy walk from a bus stop – the bus services are punctual and reliable, so it's easy to explore a lot of the island without a car. All in all, this was an excellent experience.

ronae

Thunder is a great lovely tuxedo cat loves play time.  He goes outside via his catflap and ALWAYS comes home when he's called - if you rattle the treat box!  He'll let you know when he wants his belly rubbed and when his dinner is due.  He'll join you on the bed and gladly be your nighttime footwarmer.
The house is located on a quiet residential street with about a 15 minute walk to Sainsburys and Lidl.  Another 10 minutes takes you past Pantiles (good restaurants, pubs, shopping and bakeries) and into the main new town.  Good train connections to London.
Lots of places for good walk...

Regina

This was a great sit! Bubba and Sweet Pea are two of the sweetest, most loving cats I've met. They are both cuddlers, Sweet Pea from the moment you meet and once you earn his love Bubba from the moment you earn his love. They also love cuddling with each other which is just the cutest thing and melts my heart. They were so easy to care for and even easier to fall in love with.

Regina is kind and easygoing and was easy to communicate with. Her apartment is well equipped, and the building has a great pool and fitness center which inspired me to get back into a workout routine. Dubai in the summer was no problem at all, as everywhere has aircon and Regina was kind enough to allow me to use her car, which was especially helpful for my visa run.

Thanks Regina, I loved meeting you and the babies!

Hilary

Frankie is one of my favorite cats I've encountered, super affectionate and playful. Hilary is friendly, kind, & welcoming. I'd recommend this home to anyone!
