House Sitting in Downtown, Lakeland, FL

“My dog ​​and I were very happy with Christian. Christian is awesome, very attentive and caring. He kept me updated throughout the day with comments, photos and videos. I felt very comfortable leaving my Scooby with Christian. I will definitely hire him again. Thank you for taking such good care of my Scooby prince.”

“Between 2 dogs and taking care of my dad, vacation seemed impossible. Until I found Josh on Rover. He came over twice to meet the pups before we left. He gave updates, sent pictures, videos and took the best care of them. Great communication, trusting, always on time and very professional. I can’t say enough. Thank you Josh. Highly recommend ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“Alison was great! It was our first time leaving our golden, and his first time spending even a night without his mom or dad. I work from home 99% of the time and he’s a true Velcro dog, following me everywhere. So I was very worried about how he’d do without me, and vice versa. Alison was great with him and made time to come for a few walks in the weeks before we left so she and Santo could get to know each other a bit. After we left she checked in with us and sent us photos and updates about our baby, which helped me worry less about whether he was feeling sad or abandoned. She was respectful of our home and even asked before signing into a streaming account we don’t have. And when we got stuck in nightmare traffic on I-4 on the way home from the airport, she stayed past the time booked for our stay so Santo wasn’t alone.”

“Megan took such good care of my fur babies! She sent pictures and kept me updated. Prior to leaving I mentioned one of my doggos had a bit of a rash and may need his cone, she notified me shortly after that she found a patch a poison ivy in my backyard! Would highly recommend!”

“Kenny took care of our three dogs and one cat for a week while we were on vacation and we couldn't have asked for anyone better. His attention to each pet's needs, the way he engaged with each of them, his patience with our 17 year old spicy chihuahua (with special needs) was more than I could have hoped for. Kenny was always communicative, sent lots of pictures, asked all the questions you hope your sitter will ask, and took amazing care of our pets and our home. Having him care for our crew made our vacation so much more enjoyable because I knew I didn't need to worry about how things were going at home. Honestly - if I could give Kenny more than 5 stars, I would - he's the best!”

“Mandie is absolutely incredible. Not only does she treat your dog like her own, but she ensures they feel loved like you would yourself. This is the second time Mandie took care of our Bean and I think we found our dog sitter for life. She sends so many pictures and videos and Bean is always so happy when she comes over to see him — I mean really, he gets more excited for her to come over than when my husband and I come home 😅. Mandie is also just a joy of a person who is punctual, clean, flexible with our hectic schedules and we are always happy to have her sit at our house. Seriously don’t think twice, and book Mandie to watch your pup ASAP. You won’t regret it!”

“Sabrina is so sweet! I was kind of skeptical about having someone I didn’t know house/dogsit, but Sabrina made me feel super comfortable about the whole process. She sent pictures of our dog several times a day to put my mind at ease. Came back from our trip and our dog was safe & happy and the house was just like we left it. I highly recommend Sabrina!”

“Carmen went above and beyond to care for my kitty!!”

“I hired Rachelle to house sit with my Corgi for Labor Day weekend. She kept me updated throughout the weekend and sent lots of pictures. I would love to use her again in the future!”

“Sarah has taken care of our various dogs and cats for many years now when we are out of town. She is careful to follow our pet directions. The animals respond well to her and we always feel comfortable employing her. We will continue using Sarah as a pet sitter.”

“I have known Alicia for a very long time, and she has proven to be an amazing caretaker of animals including her own pets. She also loves doing favors for her neighbors and family to take care of theirs. She always greets them with a big hug and wave every morning as well as talking to them with a lot of love! Alicia is very kind to people and animals, she is very outgoing and fun to be around, and I know she is going to be the best pet caretaker of your pet.”

“Christina was great with our dog and cat. She kept to their schedules and stayed at our place for several nights. You couldn't even tell she had been here. We wouldn't hesitate to use her again.”

“Absolutely fantastic!”

“We can’t wait to have Michelle over again! The dogs were happy and the house was left in pristine condition. Thank you so much and we’ll see you again soon!”

“Will definitely book with Nikayla again! She was so sweet and kept good communication if any needs popped up. My pups were super happy when I got home! Thank you Nikayla!”

“Brianna is just amazing!!! She has stayed over with my dogs while I was out of town, and the dogs just love her!! She has become another family member to our dogs.”

“Kelsey provided exceptional care for my two dogs, a chihuahua and a black lab, during a long weekend. Her communication was outstanding, as she sent frequent updates and photos, which alleviated any worries I had about leaving my fur babies. It's evident that she genuinely cares about the well-being of the pets she watches. Kelsey has set the standard for what a good dog watcher should be, and we will definitely be rebooking with her in the future. She is simply the best!”

“Thank you!! Luciano was great with our 3 fur babies. We will be hiring him again, for sure. I felt comfortable the entire time and knew they were in good hands. :)”

About: I’ve been a pet sitter everywhere from remote islands to suburban neighborhoods. I love animals! It’s been such a joy to be a small part of caring for so many different breeds: American Bulldogs, Boxers, Golden Doodles, Golden Retrievers, Shih Tzus, Poodles, Rescued Mixed-Breeds and more! I have experience with caring for senior pets in need of specialized care and young pets requiring high levels of physical engagement. I’d love to partner with caring for your pet. I’m currently working as a part-time nanny, so I have ample space in my schedule to care for your pet’s needs. The longest shifts I have would be eight hours. I am careful to follow the instructions given by each pet owner. I do my best to integrate into the environment in a way that is familiar to each pet. I aim to be an extension of the family and make sure each pet feels loved and cared for. I intuitively meet needs from feedings, walks, play time and cuddles and am very communicative with general updates as well as any concerns.

“Haleigh is such a caring & kind doggie sitter. She paid close attention to Clive’s needs and made him feel safe in her presence. They went for walks, she administered his medicine and fed him well. I can tell Clive, my beagle, really likes her and I do too. I highly recommend Haleigh as a top notch pet sitter ♥️”
