“Rich was great. So grateful to have found him to watch our dog. I highly recommend him to anyone needing a pet sitter.”

About: I have had a pet in my home since I was born. The first dog I remember was Ginger, then PJ, then Sparkie, then Jenna and Millie, Anja and Argus, then Bonnie and Clyde, and now we have our very friendly buddy, Gustav. They ranged from a miniature Schnauzer and Jack Russels to Rottweilers and German Shepherds. My closest friend's dad bred and trained German Shepherds while I was in high school. I was surrounded by a pack most of my life and loved it. I owned a local pup friendly pub for 14 years and made it a point to great every dog that came in. I am hoping for the chance to see some of those dogs again! My current schedule is very flexible, so I can focus on the pet's care when they need it. I understand that different pets require different things at different times and I am able and willing to accommodate with a bit of forewarning. I have a fenced in yard and a very friendly 10 month old puppy who loves new company. He and I go for walks around our neighborhood daily and we do outings to the park a few times a week. I have 2 cats that are indifferent to dogs and they have their own separate space so they can be alone if they want. I deep clean the litter boxes at least twice a week and would be happy to do the same for your kitties at your home. (Access to a hose outside is very helpful for this) I have room for crates and pets are not left outside unattended. I am very vigilant about picking up poop and want to keep a clean yard for the pups to play in.

“Billie has been amazing at helping keep my precious boo’s dignity as she ages. She is very responsive, helpful, & kind. I’m so grateful she is available to walk my sweet boo during the week so she can have a walk & potty break. Thanks, Billie!”

About: For me, the joys of pet ownership came a little later in life. I grew up in a home with my parents and 3 older brothers. My mom deduced that a house with four boys and a grown man didn't need any more animals! In the 90s, I worked with the local Humane Society and was overwhelmed by love and empathy that I felt for the animals waiting for adoption. Since then, I've jumped at any chance to walk or care for the pets of my friends and family. There's nothing like the feeling I get when a shy or frightened animal lets its guard down and begins to trust. It melts my heart! My wife and I currently live with Molly Mae. She's a gorgeous 14 year old Chihuahua / Italian Greyhound mix and she's a walking, licking, mood-lifting machine! I’m currently creating artwork from my home studio where I can keep my Molly Mae with me all day. I make my own hours and can respond to pet sitting calls and bookings any time of day. I live in a quiet, gated community which is ideal for walking dogs safely. The surrounding neighborhoods are quiet with very little traffic. I have also had many mural jobs where I have been granted access to client’s homes and businesses and have earned a solid trustworthy reputation.

“Melissa was great! She was able to help me out on short notice. She went out of her way to care for my dog when I could not. Very appreciative of her :) ”

About: Being a Registered Nurse, I know how important it is to care for patients. However, pets need the same caring environment that a patient gets. I am a genuine, nurturing, pet lover of any animal. Our pet(s) are not only a "furry" animal in our homes, they are what bonds families together and bring joy to each and every one of us. I have over 10 personal years of caring for pets. I've had dogs from the size of a yorkie to a great dane, cats, & fishes. There is no stereotyping here whether you are a fish, cat, bird, dog and etc. I am open to walk ins and walking your pet(s). I am also trained at administering medications (no injections). Each and everyone of our pets deserves to have unconditional support, care and love. Our pets are family and not just a part of the family. I work full-time with a rotating schedule, so I’m most available on weekends and one weekday each week. Feel free to reach out—I do my best to accommodate requests whenever possible! I understand following detailed instructions on how to care for your pet(s) is key. I am strict with maintaining proper exercise and diet with my own dog to provide longevity, therefore that same respect will be given to your pet(s).

About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for over 7 years, and it’s something I’ve genuinely loved doing from the start. I grew up helping my family with pet sitting we’ve all been on Rover so I’ve had plenty of hand on experience. I’m really comfortable with all kinds of pets, from playful puppies who need extra time and energy to senior pets who need a little more patience and care. I’m all about making sure each pet feels safe, loved, and happy while their people are away. I also used to run a small reptile rescue, so while dogs and cats are my main focus, I’ve picked up a lot of useful skills when it comes to handling animals with different needs and personalities Pet care fits really well into my daily routine! I’m a full time college student, but my classes are scheduled in a way that keeps my mornings and afternoons free. I’m available every day of the week before 5 PM, so I have plenty of time to dedicate to walks, drop ins, feedings, and just spending quality time with your pet. I’m super flexible and can usually adjust my schedule to fit what your pet needs When I’m caring for your pet in their own home, I always follow your instructions whether it’s feeding, walks, meds, or special routines. I know how much it means for them to stay comfortable and happy in their own space. I treat every home and pet like they’re my own, making sure they feel loved and secure while you’re away.

About: I have worked with countless Canines for over 10 years; at dog shelters, training facilites, daycares and competitions. I am proficient at administering medications and working with dogs who have health and/or behavioral issues. My schedule is flexible which allows me to give your pup my undivided attention. My daily routine consists of playing, training and bonding with these dogs for a happier and fuller life. I've had dogs in my life since birth so I understand the commitment and dedication it takes working with k9s. I've also worked side by side with trainers, handlers and other professionals that have taught me how to better understand Canine behavior etc. To me, dogs are like toddlers, it's important to always know what they're doing. They need love, care and attention to thrive mentally and physically.

“Such a great experience with Jenna!! Will be hiring her again ❤️❤️ My dog absolutely loves her!!!”

About: I am Marine Mammal Animal Care Professional. I have been in the animal care field for over a decade. During that time I have worked with animals of all ages and abilities, including but not limited to animals with vision and hearing impairments, senior animals, and animals with physical disabilities. I am responsible for paying very close attention to all details of facets of animal care, including but not limited to training and maintaining behaviors using positive reinforcement and other operant conditioning techniques, noting physical changes, appetites, managing food/caloric intake, and medication administration. A huge part of my job is reading and adjusting to animal behavior, and I am well versed in listening to animal body language. I am an animal care professional by trade, and though most of my experience is with exotic animals the care, passion, and expertise translate directly to pet care! Though I work 40 hours per week I work 4-10 hour days, leaving me with three full days off per week! I have very few other commitments outside of work, and live only a few miles from home. I live in a house with moderately sized fenced in back yard. I currently have a very friendly, well socialized tuxedo cat who gets along well with dogs and other cats. Though he usually has access to the entire house, he is also comfortable spending time in just my room if separation from other animals were to be needed or desired. I enjoy spending time with my or friends pets in my down time. My entire career is in animal care, so I am very used to adapting my routine and needs to fit the animals I am caring for. I will happily curl up on the couch with a furry friend or spend hours playing or walking, whatever suits each individual animals needs!

About: I've had a dog with specific and special needs for most of my life and I am very patient with the needs of animals. I recently helped an abandoned cat get the healthcare it needed and foster her to a new home. I believe it's our jobs to give them the best life possible!! I am currently only available Sundays, Mondays, and Tuesdays due to an art internship. I can do visits, walking services, anything in the Oldsmar adjacent areas! I believe that every pet deserves the most attention and care possible! I promise to ensure the safety, happiness, and well being of any pet in any situation.

About: I have 2 dogs of my own. One 90lb adopted mutt and a 30lb poodle mix, so i have great experience with all kinds of dogs. I also have spent many years dog sitting and walking neighbors dogs and friends that need help when they go out of town. I work full time but i am completely remote. As long as the place i am sitting at has wifi I can work and take care of your dog at the same time. I am capable of walking any sized dog as i own a 90lb dog myself. I am also capable of walking multiple dogs at once. I am a young male so giving your dogs exercise is enjoyable for me. I am super attentive to the dogs as well and will show them care and affection while also making sure they have their needed amounts of food and water.

About: A home is not complete without a dog/cat...or three was the motto in my house growing up. I've taken care of dogs and cats since I could walk and love being with them. I am the person who greets the animal first when I go to a friend's house and who can be found chilling with the furry tenants of the house during parties. I am experienced with senior dogs and puppies alike!

I am extremely conscientious when it comes to making sure your pet is safe when inside your home! No accidental door or gate escapes on my watch!

About: I have been a dog owner since 2018, and I have a beagle who I love so much. I am currently in Florida for school and would love to do some work while in school. I also have a cat who is very good and is okay with dogs. She will tolerate them as long as they keep their distance. She can be separated if really necessary. I can go above and beyond to care for any animal. I spoil my dog and cat like they're my own kids. I go to school on Tuesdays and Thursdays and am home all day on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, plus the weekends. If I were to dog/cat sit on Tuesdays and Thursdays, they wouldn't be alone; my mom would be home to take care of them as well. I have a yard but can go on walks if needed. I can offer anything that you need and will make sure they get the care they need.
