Nona Paws Pet Sitting
Licensed, bonded, insured wedding pet care in Central Florida
Orlando, FL, Florida
About
Nona Paws Pet Sitting was founded by Katie Ballard, a former school counselor who built the business around one principle: every household and pet is different, so care should be too. Katie is Pet CPR and First Aid Certified and has assembled a team of background-checked professionals — each one a pet lover with their own animals at home — who collectively care for dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, and exotics.
How It Works
Before the event, Nona Paws reaches out to your coordinator, photographer, and videographer to align on the timeline and ensure your dog is always in the right place. On the wedding day, they handle transportation to the venue, keep your pet dressed, fed, walked, and calm throughout the ceremony and photos, then escort them home or to overnight care. The team stays in direct contact with your vendors from start to finish so you never have to think about logistics.
Service location must be within 1 hour driving distance from Orlando (MCO) airport; extra fees apply outside this area
Services & Capabilities
What Sets Them Apart
- Coordinates directly with your wedding planner, photographer, and videographer before the event, ensuring your dog is in the right spot at exactly the right time.
- Licensed, bonded, and insured — and uses W2 employees, not independent contractors, so every team member has been background-checked and trained to the same standard.
- Covers every part of the wedding timeline: transportation, ceremony, photos, ring bearing, rehearsal, and overnight care if needed.
- Preferred vendor at The Winery at Lake Seneca Farms — ideal if you're considering that Central Florida venue.
- Complimentary 30–60 minute meet and greet before the event so your pet is comfortable with their attendant well ahead of the big day.
