Ruth is so sweet not only to my dog but to me as well. She's baked doggie treats for my dog and he loves them. Ruth is on time and gives her full attention to us. She handles my dog with love and care and he loves her back! I would recommend Ruth to anyone with dog care needs.

About: I've owned and cared for all types of dogs. I've walked and cared for large and small. I've experenced easy, well trained to the most challenging. I love them all. I'm retired, so I can easily work in walks, drop-ins, and sittings during my days. Most days I'm available after 10 A.M., but I'm flexible. I only do care at the pet parent's house, and I follow the guidelines the pet-parent sets because routines are important for consistency. I will always respect your home.

About: I’ve grown up around animals my entire life and have experience caring for dogs, cats, and multiple pets at once. I regularly cared for a household with five dogs, so I’m very comfortable managing different personalities, routines, and energy levels. I’m also a pet owner myself (one dog and two cats), so I truly understand how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pets. I treat every animal like my own and focus on keeping them safe, comfortable, and stress-free while you’re away. I’m reliable, very responsive, and available for last-minute bookings when needed. I’m happy to follow detailed instructions, send updates/photos, and make sure you feel completely at ease while you’re gone. I work full time but I am remote, so taking time during the day is no problem in addition to availability in the mornings and evenings. I’m happy to provide care in your home, where pets are most comfortable and can stick to their normal routines. Whether that includes feeding, walks, playtime, medications, or just companionship, I’m committed to making your time away stress-free for both you and your pets. I’m very respectful of your space and privacy, and I also provide updates and photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away. I’m also happy to help with small extras like bringing in mail or watering plants.

About: Firstly, I will listen to your pet's needs that you have, and follow them accordingly. Secondly, I will play with your babies and pay attention to them, with love and affection. I will walk with them around the Lake's, and engage them, by talking to them, so that they know they are loved by me. Thirdly, I do like to play catch and engage them in different games, so their time away from you will fly by for them. Lastly, I am not trained in the Heimlich for dogs, nor CPR, but I have had to do the Heimlich on my own dog, whom was choking on food, to save her life. I look forward to playing with your babies. Thank you so very much.

Micah is always so helpful when we are out of town. She takes our sweet pup on daily walks and send lots of pictures. She always responds quickly and often on short notice. She really does make our life easier and makes being away less stressful knowing that our pup is in great hands!

About: As a passionate pet lover, what sets me apart from other sitters is my dedication to providing personalized and attentive care to each pet. I have extensive experience in training puppies, ensuring they develop good habits and social skills from a young age. Additionally, I am well-versed in senior pet care, offering gentle and patient support tailored to their unique needs. My genuine love for animals drives me to go above and beyond, ensuring every pet feels safe, happy, and loved under my care. I’m home for the summer and working part time as an interior design intern. I am home most days so I will be able to give the upmost care and attention to your pet. I offer both in-home and client-home pet care services, each tailored to meet the unique needs of the pets and their owners. **In My Home:** Your pet will be welcomed into a safe, clean, and pet-friendly environment. I provide a comfortable space with plenty of toys and cozy resting areas. Regular exercise, playtime, and cuddles are a part of the daily routine. I maintain a consistent feeding schedule and adhere to any special dietary requirements. With constant supervision, your pet will never feel alone or neglected. **In Your Home:** I ensure your pet stays comfortable in their familiar surroundings. I follow your specified routines for feeding, exercise, and playtime, maintaining consistency for your pet's well-being. I am attentive to their needs, providing companionship and care while you're away. For puppies, I continue with their training and socialization, and for senior pets, I offer gentle and patient care tailored to their needs. In both settings, my top priority is the happiness and health of your pet. My approach is to treat every pet as if they were my own, providing the love and attention they deserve.

About: I am a 47 year old male, whose Air Force duties were crew chief for F-22 fighter jets, serving overseas during the Iraq war. I have top secret security clearance and many missions under my belt. My passion now is animals. I am currently an SPCA foster parent to both dogs and cats. No job is too big or too small when caring for your pet. Whether they have medical needs or just need a happy face to lick, I can take care of it all. I am available day or night with total peace of mind everything will be cared for. I live in South Lakeland. I am retired and available for boarding, client home boarding and care, pet walks and visits. I'm available any day and time. I will answer all requests as soon as I see them. I live alone in a small and safe community, with little traffic, which makes it safe for walks. I have a unfenced yard but I take great care allowing the dog to have freedom in the yard while being on a leash. I have access to a fenced in dog "play" area in my community. My home is non-smoking, cozy, and quiet. I keep the home air cool to provide comfort for the animals. I maintain constant contact with your loved one to know they are safe and happy. I will provide daily texts and photos of the pet, to the owner, to show they are safe and happy.

Cassidy was very accommodating, flexible and kind with my fur babies. It was their first time left alone all day in a very long time and my first time using the app and Cassidy was patient with my new navigation of this process and tender hearted to my lonely doggie. Warmed my heart that she sat with my girl and encouraged her to eat her meal even though she was missing her momma. I even needed to add an extra walk when my day went unexpectedly late, and this was no issue.

About: Animals have always been a big part of my life, and caring for them brings me genuine joy. As a lifelong lover of both cats and dogs, I understand that pets aren’t just animals—they’re family. For over 25 years, I’ve been the go-to pet sitter for family and friends, caring for dogs and cats of all ages, personalities, and energy levels. I've even travelled across the country to pet sit; that's how much I love it. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, giving lots of belly rubs, or simply providing a calm and comforting presence, I take pride in making pets feel safe, loved, and cared for while their people are away. I know firsthand how difficult it can be to leave your pets behind. That’s why I treat every pet as if they were my own, taking the time to learn their routines, quirks, and favorite activities. Whether your dog loves adventure or your cat prefers quiet companionship, I’ll provide personalized care tailored to their needs. You can expect plenty of updates, photos, and peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in loving and capable hands. I look forward to meeting you and your pets and becoming someone you can trust time and time again. Now that I’m retired from my profession in law enforcement, I have the time and flexibility to do something I truly enjoy—caring for animals. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine, and I love spending my days walking dogs, playing with pets, and giving cats and dogs the love and attention they deserve. My flexible schedule allows me to be available throughout the day, ensuring your pets receive plenty of care, companionship, and personalized attention while you’re away. The safety, comfort, and well-being of every pet in my care is my top priority. At this time, I’m unable to board pets in my own home, but I’m happy to care for them in the comfort of their own home where they feel most secure and can maintain their normal routines. When staying in a client’s home, I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding schedules, medications, walks, playtime, and any special needs or preferences. I understand that every pet is unique, so I take the time to learn their routines, personalities, and favorite activities to help reduce stress while their owners are away. As a retired law enforcement professional with 20 years of experience, I bring a strong sense of responsibility, reliability, and attention to detail to every pet-sitting experience. I treat both pets and homes with the utmost respect and care, and I provide regular updates and photos so pet parents can enjoy peace of mind knowing their furry family members are safe, happy, and loved.
