Dog Sitting in Abita Springs

About: I’ve been pet sitting for 15 years, spent a year as a vet tech intern, and I’m a proud dog mom myself! I treat every pet like family and always make their comfort and safety my top priority. I work from home full-time. I’m around throughout the day and can easily step out for walks, drop-ins, or check-ins whenever needed. Whether it’s morning, afternoon, or evening. I’m happy to help keep your pet happy and cared for! When I’m in a client’s home, I always respect the space and leave it just as I found it. I clean up after the pets and make sure everything is in order before I head out. I keep my own home clean and pet friendly. I bring that same care and attention into every home I visit.

About: I’ve had many pets of my own from dogs to cats to birds to lizards. I have house sat and pet sat for multiple families and thoroughly enjoy it! I am also healthcare worker so very comfortable giving your pets medicine if needed. I am a healthcare worker who makes her own schedule. Advanced notice is appreciated! I typically work 3 days a week but can move things around as needed to accommodate. I have a fenced yard with plenty of grass to run. I have two friendly dogs that are crate trained and can be kept separate if needed. One is lazy and one is energetic and playful.

About: I’ve grown up with pets my entire life—there’s never been a time I didn’t have at least one dog or cat by my side. I currently have a large German Shepherd and a sweet cat, so I’m very used to managing different energy levels, personalities, and needs. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and breeds, from energetic puppies to senior dogs who just need a little extra patience and care. I’m also comfortable administering medications, including pills, ear drops, and topical treatments. I know how important it is to have someone trustworthy caring for your pet, and I treat every animal as if they were my own—with love, attention, and lots of cuddles! As a stay-at-home wife, I have plenty of time and flexibility in my daily routine to give pets the attention and care they need. Whether it’s going on walks, keeping up with feeding schedules, giving medication, or just spending quality time playing or cuddling, I’m available throughout the day to make sure each pet feels safe, happy, and loved. Overnight stays are never a problem—I’m home most of the time, so your pet will have constant companionship, comfort, and care, even at night. My home is a pet-friendly, loving environment where pets feel safe and cared for. With a large dog and a cat of my own, I understand the unique needs and personalities of different pets. I provide plenty of walks, outdoor time, indoor play, cuddles, and basic training using positive reinforcement. I prioritize creating a calm, happy space where pets get the attention, exercise, and love they need every day. I bring this same level of care, attention, and affection to your pet’s home, ensuring they feel comfortable and well cared for while you’re away.

About: Hi, I'm Ruby! With years of professional experience caring for a wide range of animals, from various dog breeds to farm animals and a house full of parrots, I've always been surrounded by animals. My family and I share our home with two friendly dogs, a sweet senior cat, and several feathered friends, all of whom get along wonderfully with other pets. I love welcoming our friends' and family's pets into our home. As an avid Rover user myself, I understand the importance of finding trustworthy and loving care for your furry (or feathered) family members when you're away. I’m excited to extend the same care and attention to your pets! I kindly ask that any inquiries include information about your pet's personality, specific needs, and any medical requirements. Thank you for trusting me to care for your beloved pets as if they were my own. Looking forward to meeting you and your pets! I own a mobile art education business, which allows me the flexibility to work from home most days. This means I can provide ample company and care for your pets throughout the day. My schedule enables me to be present and attentive, ensuring your furry friends receive the love and attention they deserve. With my background in art education and my passion for animals, I'm dedicated to creating a nurturing and stimulating environment for your pets while you're away. You can have peace of mind knowing they are in capable and caring hands. My home features a cozy, separated fenced yard where pets can safely enjoy outdoor playtime. In addition to this secure space, I have a spacious front and back yard, providing plenty of room for pets to explore and stretch their legs. Daily walks are a routine part of my care, ensuring your pets get the exercise they need. Inside, I provide lots of cuddle time, offering a warm and comforting environment where pets feel loved and at home.

About: Raised around animals from the day I was born, I have spent my life gladly looking after & caring for pets of all kinds for family, friends, & neighbors; as well as my own. I am available for drop-in’s & walks Monday through Friday in the evenings, however I am open to discuss a more flexible schedule if the circumstances arise & I can help. Doggy day care available, preferably after at least one walk or drop-in. My home has a fenced in yard with plenty of space to run & play. The company of our friendly dog is available if all parties are comfortable with the arrangement. In your home, I will carry out to the best of my ability any additional safety measures or wishes to ensure confidence for you & comfort for your pet.

About: I've been around and taken care of animals all my life; kittens to elderly cats and puppies to elderly dogs. As an 8th grader I alone trained, and house broke (W/O ever using a crate) our Dachshund puppy, Olive. As one of my summer jobs during high school, I looked after an elderly, deaf Jack Russell, and special needs cat (time dependent medication required, strict diet, etc.). After receiving my B.S. from OSU, I pursued a career that paired my field of study with my love for animals, and spent the next 6 years on the Media Relations team at PETA. So, taking care of animals is literally my work AND play :) I work parttime, generally late morning/mid-afternoon to early evening. I have generous availability and can be extremely flexible. I understand that it's not always possible to plan far ahead for a sitter, and how stressful that can be; I got you! :) I have a fenced in yard, and two lovely cat occupants. I take my two boys for monitored outdoor time in the morning and evening when I tend to our plants. I have three litter boxes across the house, as well as water dishes (one for every floor) so they are available to them at all times. I understand the importance of consistent routine (walks, potty, etc.), cleanliness of food/water dishes, and I pick up quickly on subtle signs from pets that signal "I need something from you".

About: Hi, my name is Olivia and I’m a passionate animal enthusiast ready to provide your furry friends with the love and care they deserve while you’re away. I currently have 2 years working in a vet clinic and 2 years of experience working at a dog/cat boarding place. I have experience with administering meds and injections if needed. I’ve grown up with animals in my house hold and currently have my own dog that I’d hate to admit that I spoil more than myself😆 I currently don’t have a full time job so I have more than enough time to care and attend to your animals. The only days I won’t be available are the weekends due to personal responsibilities. I currently myself have 3 dogs so that’s why I only accept drop ins and walks for the safety of all dogs. I overall as well feel like my life style and personal comfort is best fit for drop ins and walks

About: My name is Elizabeth. I have taken care of all kinds of animals from chickens to snakes to peacocks and cows. I grew up around dogs and farm animals my mother loved parrots and macaws, so I also know about them and their temperament. Instead of babysitting children as a teenager I baby sat my mom’s friend’s farms and my friend’s houses and pets. I’m a caring knowledgeable candidate that grew up around it all. I was a grounds keeper for a little bit, but I moved. I love all animals, even the reptiles (I had a turtle). I’m currently in the works of starting my own business as an event planner. My schedule is very open and I’m willing to work around my schedule to make your own easier! I treat my pet like she is my child. She is a nine year old Chesapeake bay retriever mix so the temperament of an angel. She is super lazy, but she loves other dogs and is the friendliest baby you could ever meet. She goes outside and she goes on walks 4 to 5 times a day. She gets fed twice a day and her water bowl is never empty. She is up to date on all vaccines and I have proof of all her medical records. If a dog has any issues with her she has a separate area just for her.

“Andrew was awesome Frankie said. Will definitely use him again. Thanks”

“I'l like to say that Kimberly was awful so I can keep her to myself, but alas, I can't. She was GREAT with my 2 dogs. They are a little tempermental but Kimberly was not intimidated and the dogs took to her well. Kimberly came to the house at the same time each day, very punctual. She fed and 'loved' on the dogs each day & updated me with pictures. I am very pleased with her service. I will definately use her again!”

About: Patience and empathy are a major part of my approach to animals in general. I have realized that these beautiful creatures respond well to me because my love does not come with any strings. I have a Jack Russell Terrier named Kameha and a cat named Sushi. They are my world. Sushi's mother was a stray cat and not in good shape. I helped her heal and she ended having Sushi and several other kittens. Kameha was rescued from a bad home and she had worms as a puppy. Now she is full of life. My values include but are not limited to: safety, integrity, responsibility, respect, and dependability. I am entrepreneur and full time father and I am looking for supplemental income. Thank you for your time and consideration.
