Liza Z. says, "We had a great experience! George was very kind, professional, and knowledgeable.

Hello! I've just recently started dog walking and boarding but I'm no stranger to animals. I've had a few family dogs, rats, bunnies, and turtles! Now I live in the Gables with my energetic seven month pup, Athena. From having my own dog I've learned so much about responsibility but also how to have fun, pup style! There's nothing I enjoy more than being around animals! I'm currently studying communications at FIU to hopefully work as a fundraiser for a wildlife nonprofit. Animals of all kinds are the world to me, I've been a vegetarian for almost five years. I'd love to hang out with your pets and will take the best care of them!

Your dog sitting questions, answered

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on HomeGuide.

How much do dog sitters charge?

Dog sitters charge $10 to $20 per hour for a drop-in visit or $35 to $65 per night, depending on your location. Dog sitters may charge more for holidays or if your home is outside of their service area. Costs may also increase if your dog has special needs.

Do you tip dog sitters?

While dog sitters do not expect a tip, tipping 15% to 20% of the total bill is common. Tip on the low end if your sitter did everything they agreed to do. Consider tipping more if they exceeded your expectations or handled any unexpected problems or emergencies.

What do dog sitters do?

Dog sitters come to your home and care for your dog while you are away. Drop-in visits typically last 30 minutes and include feeding, walking, and some play or cuddle time. Overnight visits may be at your home or the sitter's home and give your dog more time and attention than a drop-in visit.

Hiring a dog sitter gives your dog more personalized attention than a pet boarding facility and is a great option for dogs who deal with separation anxiety, dogs who do not do well in a kennel or around other animals, and older, less agile dogs.

Do dog sitters stay overnight?

Most dog sitters offer drop-in visits and overnight options, with overnight stays typically costing more. Many dogs do fine with only drop-in visits for feeding, walking, and some attention. Consider overnight sittings if your pet has high separation anxiety or needs more attention than a short visit provides.

How do I choose the best dog sitter near me?

When searching for a dog sitter, be sure to:

  • Choose a sitter who has a licensed and insured business.
  • Ask if they belong to any professional organizations, such as the National association of Professional Pet Sitters (NAPPS), Professional United Pet Sitters (P.U.P.S.), or the Association of Pet Sitting Excellence (APSE).
  • Review their profile and feedback on HomeGuide and Google.
  • Ask for and check their references.
  • Arrange a meet and greet beforehand to make sure he or she is a good fit for both you and your dog.

What questions should I ask when hiring a dog sitter?

Ask the following questions to ensure you find the best dog sitter near you:

  • What experience do you have?
  • Do you specialize in specific animals or breeds?
  • Do you belong to any professional organizations?
  • Are you trained in pet CPR?
  • Can we schedule a meet and greet beforehand?
  • What is included in your standard rate?
  • What is the rate if I have more than one dog?
  • How and when do I pay for the service?
  • Do you offer dog monitoring service?
  • How long do you stay?
  • Can you give my dog medication?
  • Do you offer any house-sitting services in addition to dog sitting?
  • What is your protocol if there is an emergency or if my dog needs immediate medical attention?
  • How do I get in touch with you while I'm away?
  • Will you update me after each visit?

Reviews for Coral Gables dog sitters

Recent success stories from people in the Coral Gables area.
Frank M.
I can’t say enough about how great George was. My gf were in a jam due to a last minuet cancellation. We were desperately looking for a sitter, but also didn’t want to leave our pup with any stranger. We came across his file and never thought that he would be available because of his high rating. To our surprise George was very willing to help us with this last minuet accommodation and we got way more then just a dog sitter. Our little pup came back home a gentleman. When George says he’ll do away with some bad habit in a short time, take his word for it. He provided updates on a daily basis and our little was very happy with him as were we. If he is available, it’s a must book. Thank you George
