Cat Sitting in Desoto Lakes

“Kimberly is very patient with my new very anxious Siberian kitten. For the first time today after Kimberly, coming in for several days during the holidays just for check-in’s, Liliya actually came out from hiding and sniffed Kimberly’s hand. I can be a less anxious, kitty parent, knowing that Kimberly is around to help.”

“Rebeca took such good care of Didi that I've already booked her for my next out-of-town trip. I especially appreciated all the photos and videos she sent. Didi obviously liked her. Rebeca went over and above what I expected, so I trust her with my feline sidekick.”

About: I have provided pet care services to dogs and cats of all ages and needs. From walking the neighbors dogs to watching their cats at night, I am ready for whatever care your animal needs. I am also equipped from the personal care of the dogs and cats my family and I rescued from baby to senior. I can’t wait to meet your pets and make them feel at home! I generally work 9-6 weekdays but my schedule fluctuates week to week and is flexible on weekends. I am happy to provide care before and after my work day. Let’s find a time! I will provide a safe environment in the home for the pets maintaining whatever feeding and bathroom schedule they are on. I love playing with animals and just keeping them company :).

About: Hi! I’m a reliable and experienced pet lover who has been caring for animals for as long as I can remember. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and energy levels. My goal is always to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I understand that every dog has their own routine and personality, so I always take the time to learn what works best for them. Whether your pet needs long walks, playtime, lots of attention, or a calm and relaxed environment, I’m happy to adjust to their needs to make sure they are happy and stress-free. I also have a dog of my own—an Australian Shepherd—so I’m very comfortable handling energetic dogs and making sure they get the exercise and attention they need. I truly enjoy spending time with animals and treating them like part of the family. I’m currently home full-time, which allows me to be very flexible with scheduling. I’m available for dog walking, drop-in visits, and house sitting, and I can often accept last-minute bookings. When caring for pets in your home, I make sure to follow their normal routine, including walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and any special instructions you provide so they feel comfortable and secure. Your pet’s happiness and safety are always my top priority, and I’ll make sure they get plenty of love, attention, care, and pictures while you’re away. I work remotely, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to be available throughout the day for pet care. I’m able to accommodate morning, midday, evening, and weekend visits, as well as last-minute bookings when needed. Because I’m home-based, I can give pets plenty of attention, stick to their routine, and be consistent with walks, feedings, and check-ins. I’m happy to work around your pet’s specific schedule to make sure they stay comfortable and well cared for. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my top priority is keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and any specific preferences your pet has. I make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship while you’re away, and I always respect your home by keeping things clean and tidy. I also provide regular photo and update messages so you can feel confident that your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for. Every pet is different, so I take the time to adjust to their personality—whether they’re energetic and playful or more calm and independent.

“Bailey did a fantastic job looking after Mishu and my home! She was a great communicator and updated with pictures everyday. She went above and beyond for Mishu and even stayed with her for two nights when hurricane Milton hit. She helped during the hurricane and brought patio furniture in and made sure the house was just as I left it when I came home. Mishu seemed very comfortable and happy with Bailey, she definitely has experience with cats. I couldn’t recommend a more caring and responsible house and cat sitter ☺️”

“Crysta is incredible! I have been so apprehensive about having someone “we didn’t know” watching our cats, and I am so happy to have found Crysta! From the first meeting, to texts and pictures every day, to even wanting to know when we were home and that the cats were okay, her service was amazing. We will be using her again! (I think I have one cat that pawsitively will insist!!!)”

About: Being a pet sitter is truly a dream come true. Dog lover is an understatement! I grew up with dogs of my own and have spent my whole life around dogs of all breeds, sizes, and energy levels. Over the years, I’ve also helped care for neighbors’ and family members’ dogs through walks, drop-in visits, feeding, and quality time. I’m very active and love getting dogs out and moving, whether that’s neighborhood walks or exploring local favorites like the Celery Fields, Bayfront Park, or Red Bug Park. I’m happy to tailor walks and outings to each dog’s energy level, and for pups who enjoy extra playtime, I also have access to my family’s fully fenced backyard for supervised fun. I’ll return your dog like they just got back from vacation: happy, relaxed, and tired. 🐾🌴🦮 I’m currently available when you need me and would be happy to be flexible with your schedule! I hope to fill my schedule with your fur babies! 🥰 When caring for pets in their home or mine, I do my best to keep their routine consistent so they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I always make sure doors and gates are secure, double-check food and water, and give them lots of attention and love. I respect your home and your pet’s space, and I’m happy to follow any specific instructions or routines that help your pet feel at ease.

“Baxter's stay at Barbara's was excellent! She took him on short notice, was extremely flexible with drop-off and pick-up, has a great home and yard for dogs, and has sweet dogs of her own. What else could I ask for?!”

About: I am conscientious, non-smoking, loving, caring, and trustworthy professional who understands the dedication and commitment required to look after your fur baby/babies. I have owned pets for more than 20 years and they all have always been spoiled rotten :). Growing up with pets and having my own as well, I became familiar with many pet conditions. If your furry baby has any medical needs I will assist in every way possible to make him/her comfortable. After my fur-baby passed away, I have chosen to fill the void of having a pet by looking after other people’s pets. While you are away, I will literally adopt your pet for the time it is with me and will treat him/her exactly as I would if it were my own. Your baby/babies will have fun with me and my son who loves animals more than anyone I’ve ever met (including critters and reptiles which are his specialty). Your baby/babies can watch TV with with us, sleep in bed or investigate things in and outside the house when out walking. I know that each pet has their own personality and style. I will adapt to exactly what your pet needs. My aim is to make your furry baby happy and provide the attention he or she ever wants and needs! I am a real estate agent for Coldwell Banker. Although I have to leave for house showings from time to time, your fur puppy will not be left home alone the whole time while I am gone. My 18 year old son will walk the pups to make sure they are not alone for long. I live in a townhouse with lots of trails around. I enjoy walking, so frequent nature walks will be a part of the routine. I have a very large back patio the dogs like to go on and absorb the sun. I always follow the same routine you do as I want your baby to feel at home.

“Cyndee is so good with Lily! When I meet with Cyndee I thought yes she is ok. Because she is very loved for animals and Lily liked her. I was sure for my baby is in the good hand. And when I returned for drop off Lily I saw my baby is happy. I am very glad to Cyndee took for Lily. Thanks again for taking great care of my baby”
