I am so grateful for Veronica! I've used her services a couple times now and she is wonderful. This particular stay I didn't leave the house as prepared as I wanted and she took care of everything. Highly recommend. Thank you Veronica.

About: I have extensive experience caring for pets and truly enjoy spending time with animals. I have taken care of multiple pets for friends, neighbors, and family members, including feeding, walking, playing, and making sure they feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I am attentive to each pet’s needs and make sure they receive the care, patience, and attention they deserve. In addition to pet care, I previously worked in childcare with RCMA, where I learned strong responsibility, supervision, and safety skills. My background in customer service has also helped me develop great communication and reliability when working with families. I am dependable, patient, and passionate about providing loving care for pets so owners can feel confident their animals are in good hands. I’m currently doing online school so I would plan my schedule to allow time for feeding, walks, playtime, and check-ins so pets receive consistent attention, exercise, and care throughout the day. I’m organized and dependable, which helps me maintain a routine that keeps pets happy, active, and safe. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I carefully follow feeding schedules, provide walks and playtime, and make sure pets have plenty of attention and supervision. I always keep the environment clean, safe, and comfortable while respecting the owner’s home and instructions. I also make sure doors, gates, and outdoor areas are secure so pets stay safe at all times. My goal is to create a calm, trustworthy environment where pets feel relaxed and owners feel confident their pets are in good hands. 🐶🐱

About: I’ve raised Pugs to Jack Russell’s to Samoyeds. I’ve cared for many dogs from rescues to seniors. My sweet pug Ana was in a wheelchair for the last few years of her life. I’m currently retired and available to assist pet owners in the Sun City area with pet sitting and walking needs. I have a Jack Russell that is full of energy that loves to play with others and go on walks. My dog is an indoor/outdoor dog that loves hanging out on the lanai, playing ball and long walks. He gets along great with dogs and cats alike.

About: Hi! I’m Madison, and I’ve always had a love for animals. I’ve cared for pets of all kinds, including dogs, cats, fish, frogs, and other small pets, and I truly enjoy spending time with them. I know how important it is to find someone you trust with your pets, so I make it my goal to give them the same love, attention, and care that I would give my own. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or just having someone nearby, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and happy while you’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! 🐾💕 One of the best parts about pet sitting is that I have plenty of time to spend with your pets! My schedule is very flexible, so I’m available most days, including mornings, evenings, weekends, and holidays. Whether you’re planning a trip, need a last-minute sitter, or just want someone to check in on your pet, I’d be happy to help. I love spending time with animals and look forward to giving your pets lots of love, attention, and care!💓🐾 Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I follow each pet’s routine, including feeding schedules, exercise needs, medications, and any special instructions. I make sure pets have plenty of attention, love, and supervision while in my care. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away.

I can't say enough good things about Ethan! He took care of my 3 pups and cat, like they were his own. He communicated daily with updates and pictures of everyone playing in the backyard having a good time. Additionally he kept the pups happy and exercised with walks. I highly recommend Ethan for anyone looking for a caring and responsible pet sitter!

Francesca is truly the most amazing dog sitter we’ve ever had. She doesn’t just take care of your fur babies, she actually falls in love with each one! She is meticulous in loving your dog(s) and sends so many pictures of your doggies happily hanging out, looking as though they couldn’t care less if you never come home! Our dogs loved Francesca so much! And her knowledge re pets is off the chain. Our dogs (3) can be a handful and occasionally get in fights with each other. NOT with Francesca! Her demeanor so calm, so loving- they instinctively know to be good and get along due to the love and care she gives each one. She takes time to understand their personalities. She treats your doggy as if it were her own. Anyone looking for a Dogsitter needs to snap up Francesca! She is the most beautiful and sweetest person and the best pet sitter on earth. Truly!

Sara was outstanding with Fred! She went above and beyond anything that was asked. She checked on our lab multiple times and spent extra time with him each day. Took him to the dog park and always provide pictures of their daily fun. We felt very comfortable with her and would 100% recommend her for any long stay needs!
