Pet Sitting Dixieland

About: I am experienced, responsible, friendly and loved by pets of all ages. Get reliable pet sitting from someone who’s raised a Westie and wrangled puppies. I live and work locally in Lakeland. Available for midday walks and sitting evenings/weekends. I am happy to provide snuggles, walks, park trips, feeding and treats. I previously worked in a pet store providing care for puppies and I currently have a 12 year old Westie. She is very friendly & loves to play with other animals.

“Ruth was simply amazing! From the contact with me, to all the amazing time she spent with my cats! I couldn't recommend her any higher than 5 stars, but she deserves 100! Even my shy cat came out to great her a few times! She gave me peace of mind that my cats were well cared for and safe!”

“Carly was super flexible and able to help us out in a pinch. It seems like our puppy loved her!”

“Thank you so much!! Bella hates the rain so I’m not surprised she wasn’t too interested. I forgot to leave her raincoat out, she’s a little more agreeable with that on but I really appreciate everything yall did”

“Kylee was extremely responsive, warm, and kind both through the app and in person. I could tell from just a few minutes of conversation that she is a cat lover. I tend to be an anxious/neurotic pet owner, which makes it hard for me to trust sitters, but Kylee was great! After almost a full week of drop-ins with her, I came home to my cat who was just as happy and healthy as ever.”

“Pennie was very professional at our meet & greet. Sent pictures of both my cats with updates. She also did additional things for me—getting mail & watering tomato plant.”

“We’ve booked with Amber many times, and she is always my first choice. Love that we have someone we can trust to drop in and take care of our kitties when we’re gone.”

About: I’m a caring, dependable, and attentive pet sitter who will treat your pets like they’re my own! I have experience caring for dogs of different ages, sizes, and personalities, and I’m comfortable with walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and lots of cuddles. I’m patient with puppies who may need extra attention and consistency, and I’m also happy to provide a calmer environment for older pets. I understand that every pet has their own routine and personality, so I’ll always follow your instructions closely to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away! ’m a full-time college student, but all of my classes are in the early afternoon, which leaves me plenty of time in the mornings, evenings, and between classes to care for pets. I’m able to make time for walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, and lots of attention. I’m also happy to follow your pet’s normal routine so they feel comfortable and well cared for while you’re away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to keep their normal routine consistent so they feel safe and comfortable.

I make sure they get plenty of attention and love while also respecting their space and personality. I’ll also keep their area clean and make sure they have fresh water and everything they need while you’re away!

About: I've been around animals my whole life and genuinely love caring for them. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs, and I take the time to make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you're away. I have experience caring for dogs of different sizes, ages, and energy levels, including puppies who need extra patience and attention as well as senior dogs who require a gentler approach. I'm comfortable with feeding schedules, administering basic medications, walks, playtime, and providing plenty of companionship. What sets me apart is that I treat every pet as if they were my own. I prioritize communication with pet parents by providing regular updates, photos, and messages so you can have peace of mind while you're away. My goal is to create a stress-free experience for both you and your pet and make sure they receive the same love and attention they're used to at home. I am currently working part-time but looking for a way to help out some people in the area with their furry friends! Available almost everyday. I prioritize each pet’s safety, comfort, and routine. In clients’ homes, I follow all care instructions closely, maintain a clean environment, and provide plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. I keep pet parents updated with photos and messages so they can feel confident their pets are in good hands.

“We used Rover for the 1st time (we usually try to have family watch since our dog Lady has anxiety) and could not be happier Elizabeth was able to watch our dog while we were away. She took great care of her, provided everything she needed including medication, and gave Lady plenty of attention and love. We will definitely use Elizabeth again in the future!”

About: I’ve always loved animals and have experience caring for pets of all kinds. I have been pet sitting for several years now. I’m happy to help with walks, feeding, playtime, and keeping your pets company while you’re away. I’ll treat your pets like my own and make sure they feel safe and comfortable :) I’m a student at UCF with a flexible schedule outside of classes. I’m available for walks, drop ins, and house sitting, and I’ll have plenty of time to give your pets attention and care. I’ll make sure your pet feels safe and comfortable while you’re away. I’m happy to follow their normal routine and your instructions, and I’ll keep you updated with how they’re doing!

About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life. I have three sweet, friendly dogs of my own, and I truly treat them like my children. In my home, dogs are family—they’re welcome on the furniture, can sleep in the bed if that’s what they’re used to, and get plenty of love, attention, and playtime. We have a large yard where the dogs love to run and play, and they’re just as happy relaxing inside together. I understand that every dog has their own personality and routine, so I do my best to make them feel safe, comfortable, and right at home while you’re away. My goal is for you to have complete peace of mind, knowing your pup is being cared for just like one of my own. Pet care is already a big part of my everyday life because I have three dogs of my own. I work part-time with a flexible schedule, and both my significant other and I work just five minutes from home, so the dogs are never left alone for long. My daily routine revolves around feeding, exercise, playtime, and lots of attention, so welcoming another dog into our home fits in naturally. I make it a priority to ensure every dog feels safe, loved, and cared for as if they were my own. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. My home has a large, fully fenced yard where dogs can safely run and play. I also have a dedicated dog room, as well as kennels available if a dog needs their own space for meals, rest, or if separation is preferred. My home is clean, pet-friendly, and free of hazards, so you can feel confident that your dog will be in a safe environment. Whether your pup loves to play or simply relax, they’ll receive plenty of love, attention, and personalized care in a secure, welcoming home.

“Sunni is an angel and I am extremely grateful for all her help! The fact that my shy cat came out during her visits tells me a lot about how kind of a person she is! I would not hesitate to request her again and I absolutely recommend her for anyone wanting first-class care for their fur babies! Thank you Sunni!”

Michele L.

“She was so good with the fur babies!! She sent me pictures and let me know every time she was there. So polite and such a sweet person and loves the animals! Hire her!! You won’t regret it!!!”

“Madison was amazing! We went out of town for a weekend getaway and were so anxious about leaving our cats behind. However, Madison eased all these worries away. Her communication was excellent and I could tell my cats were in caring hands. She was able to get my reserved cat to come out of his shell and even administered medication. I would recommend Madison and will definitely be rebooking with her in the future!”

About: Hi my name is Rachelle! I’ve walked and watched most dogs since I was seventeen my love for dogs and animals are my passion. I’ve had animals such as goats, dogs, ducks you name it since I was little! I can’t wait to meet you and your fur babies! I have a year and a half German shepherd who has very high energy so we spend most of our time in the yard playing fetch and going on walks My German shepherd requires a lot of walks and running through out the day it makes for a very fun day especially to see her so happy! I make sure everything is ok while I am walking them, make sure I have plenty of water with me and it’s not too hot for them

“I’m so glad to have found Micah as a sitter! This was my first time using Rover, and it couldn’t have been a better experience. It was so convenient to be able to leave my animals in their own environment while I went out of town, and Micah took wonderful care of them! She scheduled a visit to come by and meet them all first, and she asked questions to try and stick exactly with their routines. She also sent lots of sweet pictures, and it was wonderful to see everyone so at ease during her visits! I’ll absolutely be booking with Micah again in the future!”
