About: If you're looking for someone who will genuinely enjoy taking care of your pet and not simply "watch them"-youve found her!!!!! I have over 15 years of experience caring for all animals, and I absolutely love their company. I work from home only a few hours a week so your fur babies will get lots of attention and have all their needs met! I have a very calm and cozy home with no one home but myself. A fenced in large yard where they can safely play sunbathe and sniff around comfortable. I have a medical background so am comfortable administering meds.and caring for their extra need or needing a consistent routine. Every fur baby is different an I will adapt to each of their needs. My goal is treat all fur babies big or small young or old as if they were part of my family...loved and cared for. I recently moved to the SWFL area from Cali. No children or spouse, just myself in the home. I work from home only a few hours a week so I can provide all the attention, care and needs for you and your pet. I have a home with a large fenced yard. Currently have zero pets at home so they will have all the attention. I am able to follow whatever routine that you have for your fur baby.
About: As a customer service professional, I have developed strong communication, responsibility, and time-management skills that translate directly into pet care. I am comfortable following detailed instructions, maintaining routines, administering basic care, and ensuring pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I have experience caring for dogs and cats of various ages and temperaments and understand the importance of providing attentive, compassionate care while keeping owners updated with regular photos and messages. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I have a flexible schedule and enjoy spending time with animals. I am able to plan my day around feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and providing companionship. I prioritize consistency and reliability to ensure pets maintain their normal routines and feel comfortable while their owners are away. When caring for pets in a client's home, I follow their established routine as closely as possible to help pets feel comfortable and secure. This includes feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, administering basic care as instructed, and providing plenty of attention and companionship. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages so they can have peace of mind while they are away. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free environment for every pet in my care.
About: Throughout my high school and college experiences, I have fulfilled my volunteer hours working with local humane socialites! Animals have always had a special place in my heart. Having earned my bachelor’s in psychology, I was able to take a course about therapy using animals! Currently I am a fine dining server for a restaurant only open for dinner! So I am only ever unavailable for 4-5 hours most days, but can make stops before and after going to work!! My schedule has made me very flexible, and I would love to help those take care of their fur babies who may need an extra hand! I am currently employed at a fine dining seafood restaurant job that is open 4PM- 10PM everyday! I wake up early and have the whole day available until my nightly shift. And, I never would mind making a stop after I get off work! I just moved recently, so I am scouting 2 cats myself. With that, I recently moved out of my ex- lover’s house where he had a cat and 2 dogs. There was a completely fenced in backyard for the puppies to play, and plenty of space for the cat to roam! I’m my new house, we have an extra room that will be dedicated to the kitty’s and will be called the “cat room”, while we also have quite a large back patio where they can freely roam and get fresh air!!
“Victoria is fabulous! Our english bulldog adored her time with her and my husband and I felt like we had to step up our game a bit after returning home! That’s how intentional she was with our sweet baby. I did not worry about her once and we have never left her longer than a couple days. It was a joy seeing all the photos and hearing about how the day went. Victoria follows through, she is kind and loving, and communicates so efficiently!!”
About: I have been caring and having a love for animals at all my young life it has taught me everything I need to know on how to handle and show love to cats and dogs! I will love and care for your animals just like I do mine they are my 3rd and 4th furbabies🐶🐱. I occasionally weekend sit for a golden retriever , we go on walks , snuggle and watch movies and play. I do have multiple references as well. I can do weekend sleepovers daily visits and you saying that is needed to keep the family at peace while they are out of town. I have administered vitamins and cbd oil to a few dogs for anxiety, storms etc. Thank you for your time! I do have multiple dog/cat families that I care for. I also have 6 cats at home that I care for. Currently this is what I do for work. I mostly take care of your pets in your home that way your animals are comfortable in their own setting. Especially if you have a dog and have a fenced yard,I find that more helpful.
“Christelle house sat for us and everything went great. Her communication was awesome during the sit and we came back to the house just how we left it. Our 8 year old bulldog just loves her! We’re so grateful for Christelle’s excellent service and highly recommend her!”

About: I grew up taking care of, owning, and helping raise all kinds of different dogs. Great Danes, puggles, pit bulls, and small dogs like terriers and shitzu’s. I have always been the one friends and family have called to look after their pets while they’re gone. I love them like they’re my own and go above and beyond to make sure they’re comfortable when their parents aren’t around! I have had the blessing of being able to work from home Monday, Wednesdays, Thursday’s, and Fridays with weekends off. The only day i am unavailable during the week is Tuesdays! I want to fill my free time with something I love! I have a very large fenced in yard and we do have one dog of our own who is extremely friendly to keep your fur baby company but if you’d feel more comfortable keeping them separate I am easily able to do that as well as he has a dog bed in my daughters room that he loves being in.

About: I have loved animals for as long as I can remember, and caring for them has always been a big part of my life. From dogs and cats to other furry, feathered, and even scaly friends, I’ve spent my whole life making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. Being around animals brings me joy, and I take pride in treating each one as if they were my own. My passion for animals isn’t just a hobby it’s something I want to continue doing for years to come, giving every pet the love, attention, and care they need. I don’t have a job so I think this will be a great starter job to start with since I love animals and been around them my whole life I have a dog she is two years old and she loves to run and play outside and inside and she loves people. She sleeps in her bed and in mine. She loves her alone time but also wants attention and she always gets it.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Buckingham walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Buckingham maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Buckingham choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!

This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone.
