Our team
Highly train, responsible and professional sitters
Maritza
Owner & Manager
Originally from France, I founded Top Dog Miami in 2020 to stay active and immersed in the company of animals during the pandemic. My lifelong passion for dogs inspired me to turn it into a career. Today, I manage Top Dog Miami between France and Miami, alongside my exceptional team of dedicated sitters.
Sarah
Senior Dog Sitter
After relocating from Philly to Miami in 2023, Sarah became the number one sitter of the Top Dog Miami team. She primarily manages daycare and boarding services from her home in South Beach. Dogs in her care enjoy socializing with other furry friends and exploring the dog parks of the pet-friendly “Flamingo Point” community—what we like to call doggy paradise!
Denitza
Senior Dog Sitter
Denitza has been surrounded by dogs her entire life and has developed a deep passion for caring for them. She specializes in one-on-one care, making her an ideal match for pups who thrive as loners. Based in South Beach and working from home, Denitza is fully committed to the well-being of your pet, whether at her place or yours.
Sheena
Dog Sitter
Sheena joined Top Dog Miami in 2023, and along with her husband and their Golden Doodle, Penny, they’ve created a doggy haven! Dogs who stay with Sheena get to enjoy playtime with Penny and are welcome to snuggle up on the bed or lounge on the furniture. Sheena is also a key player in our walking and daycare services, ensuring your pup has a blast. Just a heads up—Penny loves all dogs, but non-neutered pups need to look elsewhere; she’s not ready for that kind of responsibility just yet!
Izza
Cat & Dog Sitter
Izza is our top dog and cat sitter, based in South Beach. She works from home, offering personalized, one-on-one care tailored to pets’ needs—especially small dogs that prefer to be the only pup. As a true cat lover, Izza handles most of Top Dog Miami’s cat visits and ensures each pet feels at home, whether in her care or at the client’s. Sunset walks and cozy cuddles are her specialties, making her home the perfect retreat for furry friends.
Cynthia
Dog Sitter
Cynthia has been part of the Top Dog Miami family since 2023. She’s a dedicated dog walker and sitter, offering both boarding and in-home care. Cynthia has a dog named Gaston, who is not neutered, making her a great choice for families with non-neutered pets. Athletic and reliable, Cynthia loves dogs of all sizes and enjoys long walks with them. Based in the South of 5th area, she’s known for her caring and attentive nature, ensuring every dog feels happy and safe.
Nikki
Dog Sitter
Nikki joined Top Dog Miami in the summer of 2024 and has quickly become an integral part of the team. She offers personalized one-on-one daycare and boarding while also being available for dog walks throughout South Beach. Her terrier mix, Rocco, adds to the warm and playful environment at Nikki’s home, making every dog feel welcome. Professional and highly dedicated, Nikki prioritizes the safety and well-being of her clients’ pets, ensuring they feel loved and cared for at all times.
