House Sitting Downtown

“Abby was incredible with our puppy! We really appreciated the photos and the updates she sent! She left our house just as clean as we left it. Would highly recommend!”

Sarah M.

“I lucked out finding Kim at the last minute. She was able to take care of the dog with a two day notice which was amazing. She kept me updated throughout the stay and even left me a note at the end that wrapped everything up so that I didn’t have any questions about how it went. I would most certainly recommend her but also book her again myself. I’ll already Recommended her to neighbors and friends.”

Bridget S.

“Molly is the most amazing sitter and took care of my 2 dogs and cat for a week. They absolutely love her!! My mind was at peace while I was out of town because I knew she would take care of my babies like they were her own. ?”

About: I've grown up with a large variety of pets my entire life, ranging from dogs (big, medium and small), cats, fish, beared dragons, chinchillas, and hamsters. Therefore I am very comfortable when it comes to handling varying types of pets and their personalities. Currently a full time college student and also looking for a part time job, but all my classes are online so my availability is pretty flexible. I walk 2 of my dogs daily as well as play with them in my backyard for at least 15 minutes a day since they are younger and need the enrichment. I also feed all my pets daily and provide them with clean water and litter boxes for those who use it.

“Sara was fantastic. She house sat and looked after our two cats for a week while we were away and we could not have been happier with the service she provided. She kept us updated every day with how things were going and left the house tidy as if nobody was ever there. We could not recommend her more.”

“Rabekah was fabulous. Responded quickly and professionally to all communications, very sweet with our dogs, and went above and beyond in so many ways. We have one difficult dog that she won over quickly, and was patient with any additional needs. Will definitely book again.”

Jesse K.

“Jacqueline was wonderful! The puppies loved her and she took excellent care of them! Will absolutely book again!!”

Elizabeth M.

“Jonathan was always prompt and responsive with communication and his flexibility was especially appreciated when our flight was delayed on the way home!”

About: I've taken care of my childhood dog until her passing as well as many dogs, small-medium, and cats for the past few years. I just moved to this area and walking around different towns has become a big hobby of mine! I work in downtown Sarasota and I’m able to run out here and there for drop ins, I usually spend my lunch break taking a walk through town and I’m free on weekends! I’m big on phone-less walks except for pictures, with all the wildlife around and the heat in Florida I really like to be focused on my pet and check on their behavior and what catches their eye during walks

“Britney did a fine job staying with our little terrier. We appreciated her leaving the house in good condition.”

Becky P.

“Seth spent a long weekend with our pups and cat and took great care of the animals and our home. His knowledge and empathy with animals is evident in his updates and communication.”

Liam D.

“Stephanie did a wonderful job stepping in for the first time with our 2 dogs- one 4 year old, one 7 months! She kept us posted everyday and sent great pictures! We will definitely use her services again!”

Maureen M.

“Kinga dog sat for us for over 1 week. She was amazing. She provided daily updates and communication. Our dog absolutely loved her. She put our minds at ease knowing our dog was being well taken care of. She left the house in spotless condition. Thank you, Kinga!!!”

Sarah S.

“Abby is awesome! She took great care of Duke while we were away and sent lots of pictures.”

Savannah S.

“Victoria did a wonderful job. We called her last minute for an overnight get away NYE. We did a meet and greet and Bailee took to her immediately. He is a service dog to me and we were skeptical knowing this would be the first time leaving him. She sent us pictures, was very personable and affectionate to Bailee. I would definitely recommend Victoria for your pet sitting needs. I know if we ever need someone, she will be the first one we call. Thank you again Victoria for treating Bailee like your own!!”

Brian F.

“Libah was amazing! During our meet and greet, she asked questions and took notes to make sure Trix was given the best care. She made sure to use Trix’s routine to ensure her happiness. Libah was great with communication while I was gone. I never had to worry about what was happening at home.”

Raina A.

“The best decision we could have made! I had never left my baby with anyone before, and I did it with Mauricio. He's incredibly good, and communication is excellent. I recommend him 200%. THANK YOU!! I'm sure we'll be back.”

“Usually I travel with my German Shepard and Doxie but this past Christmas break I knew I wanted to travel without them but I was skeptical about leaving them with anyone else. I reached out to many people on Rover but after meeting Danielle I felt comfortable making the decision to having her stay at our home to house sit and watch both dogs. Needless to say, she did not disappoint. I received many updates and pics that let me actually enjoy my vacation instead of worrying or feeling guilty. I would highly recommend Danielle!”

About: Hi! I’m Kim, a certified dog trainer and experienced pet sitter dedicated to providing safe, reliable, and loving care. I’ve been caring for animals since I was 9 years old, including feeding routines, medication administration, and managing multiple pets at once. I have hands on experience with dogs, cats, reptiles, fish, rodents, and horses, so I’m confident with pets of all sizes, ages, and temperaments, including seniors and those with special needs. As a pet owner myself with three dogs and a cat, I know how important it is to have someone you can truly trust. I focus on keeping your pet comfortable, happy, and on their normal routine while you’re away. You can count on clear communication, dependability, and lots of love and attention for your pet. I’d love to meet you and your pet. Feel free to reach out with any questions or to book! Pet care is my full time job, so my daily and weekly routine is fully centered around the pets I care for. This allows me to provide consistent attention, flexible scheduling, and reliable care for every client. I plan my days around feeding schedules, walks, playtime, training, and any special care needs like medications or senior support. Since this is my primary focus, I’m able to give pets the time, structure, and attention they deserve rather than fitting them into a busy schedule. Whether it’s daily visits, extended stays, or last minute needs, I’m committed to being dependable, communicative, and fully present for both you and your pet. I like to keep pets on a consistent routine so they feel comfortable and at ease. In my home, my dogs start their day around 6 a.m. with a potty break and a walk, followed by breakfast and another quick trip outside. In the afternoon and evening, they go out again, have dinner, and get either a walk or playtime in the yard. When caring for pets in your home, I stick as closely as possible to their normal routine. I follow all instructions for feeding, walks, medications, and any special care they need, so they stay happy and stress-free. I also know how important communication is, so I provide regular photo and video updates and stay responsive to messages. Since pet care is my full time job, I have flexible availability and can give your pet plenty of attention throughout the day. My goal is to make sure you feel confident and at ease, and that your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away.

About: Our daughter moved in her 5th year of college with Atticus. By the time she was ready to move out he wouldn't leave. That started our adoption process for Piper so he would have a companion. Then came Luck-E Layla and finally Stella. We both flew for the airlines and transition into real estate. Working from home it was easy and therapeutic to have the pups by outsiders in our offices. Moving to a dog friendly town like Sarasota was a blessing in disguise. Dogs know and you will to when we meet your pup how much we love our pups and yours to I'm semi retired and work from my home. Our flexible lifestyle creates an easy situation for clients. We are here to make your pet feel comfortable when you are away. We have a fenced back yard but are located near multiple dog parks. In the client's home we will go over instructions for the pet twice not to leave any thing to guess.
