Pet Sitting Bayou Oaks

About: I've had pets in my home as long as can remember, I love animals. I love going on walks, playing ball or tug of war, or just a belly rub and snuggle. I treat every pet as if it were my own and enjoy figuring out what makes them tick. Your pet's peace of mind and happiness are always a priority. I would gladly provide updates and photos while you are away, rest assured they are in good hands. I am currently working part time and enjoy a flexible schedule. I know that we can find a schedule that works for all of us. I am an empty nester with a longtime boyfriend; we have been in Florida for almost two years and have recently settled in Sarasota. I have enjoyed getting to know different parts of the state and look forward to more exploring.

“Hurricane Ian! Power out! And superhero Christine was there above and beyond for Khan and George. She does a great job during a regular visit and I knew the boys were in good hands during bad weather. She is the very best, rain or shine.”

“I am super happy to have found her on Rover; she is communicative, responsible, and loving with my pets. She stayed in contact and answered every question I had about them. I will definitely hire her again—I hope she never leaves Rover! I recommend her 100%.”

“Sky has been really great with my baby Jerry! I love my dog so much and I can tell she truly cares about him and animals. She is super responsive and dependable. I had an unexpectedly long day at work this week and she was able to come twice a day on short notice. Thank you so much Sky! 🫶🏻”

“Incredible and the best of the best. Caroline took care of my baby while I was out on a quick trip and reported my cats habits and shared pics. She is thorough with her visits and truly cares for your pet as if it were her own. Definitely booking again!”

“Daelia is super reliable! She takes care of my dachshund while I’m at work. She’s great at any last minute needs and/or drop ins. I will continue to use her!”

About: I have years of experience with dogs big and small, reptiles and pocket pets. I have a 11 month Coonhound mix that I rescued from Nate’s and I spoil him everyday. I’ve volunteered as Veterinary Assistant at the HSSC animal clinic, worked in a dog daycare and boarding facility for over a year. I have experience working with dogs with medical attention. The last 3 years I had a Boston(Sailor) with Epilepsy and would give medication around the clock and experienced with recognizing and handling seizures. Your loved pets are my new family. I’m currently part time and have a flexible schedule. Lots of my mornings and afternoons are free to take care of your pups needs like meals, medication, play time and walks. Or just to have the company of another! I have a friendly playful dog that can keep them company and play. I enjoy going to the park when the weather allows it so we can get fresh air and exercise. I like to leave the tv on nature channel with relaxing sounds to keep them comfortable if I’m not around. When it seems they are getting board I like to give enrichment toys filled with yummy healthy treats. And I’m the cuddling type if they allow it.

“Victoria was awesome. Very friendly and had a safe environment for my doggie. Will definitely use her again Roxy and I highly recommend Victoria!”

Nancy D.

“Excellent as always! Rebeca is so sweet to Captain and is as calm as possible to help manage his hyper Golden energy. ** Major bonus points: She is always entering and exiting quietly during the evenings when my baby is down for the night.”

Jessica C.

“Caroline took great care of our cats while we were out of town. She sent great pictures kept them entertained and kept us informed about everything. She was doing with them and how they were behaving. Will definitely use Caroline again in the future.”

“cannot say enough good things about [Dog Sitter’s Name]. From the very beginning, communication was clear, prompt, and friendly, which instantly gave me peace of mind. [He/She/They] took the time to understand my dog’s routine, personality, and little quirks, and it really showed in the care provided. Throughout the stay, I received regular updates and photos, and it was obvious that my dog was happy, comfortable, and well-loved. When I came home, everything was spotless, and my pup was relaxed and content (a true sign of great care!). It’s not easy to trust someone with your furry family member, but Jewell exceeded all expectations. Reliable, caring, and professional — I would recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter who treats your dog like their own.”

Iraida M.

“Fantastic. Great communication and trustworthy. Took care of the kitties really well. Will have Christyn watch them again.”

Michael W.

“She was prompt and super kind! Quick response time. One of the days she came to visit our pet, the rover app was down, so she went out of her way to check in & send pictures through text. Awesome experience!”

AnnaMaria L.

“Amazing dog walker! Came in on short notice and saved me while I was out of town. If you’re in need of an amazing dog walker, that can handle any type of dog, this is the one you’re looking for! Will definitely be using her services from now on!”

Andrew S.

“Awesome!!! Molly not only took exceptional care of my cats but she took care of many things around the house while I was gone. Amazing person and extremely reliable and responsible. I will definitely be a repeat customer!”

About: I’ve been an animal lover my entire life. In high school, I fostered dogs, which gave me hands-on experience with different breeds, temperaments, and energy levels. Since 2017, I’ve also had a dog of my own, so I understand the daily responsibility, structure, and attention pets need to feel safe and happy. I’m comfortable with everything from energetic pups who need stimulation to more laid-back pets who just want companionship and consistency. I treat every animal like they’re my own. Real estate gives me a flexible, self-managed schedule, so I can easily fit pet care into my day. I’m often out and about locally, which makes drop-ins and walks convenient. I can accommodate mornings, midday visits, evenings, and weekends depending on your pet’s needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize keeping their routine as consistent as possible. I follow all feeding, walking, medication, and care instructions closely to make sure your pet feels comfortable and secure in their familiar environment. I provide plenty of attention, playtime, and affection while also respecting your home and keeping everything clean and tidy. I’m happy to send photo and video updates so you can feel confident and connected while you’re away.
