Pet Sitting in Florence

“Kari is the best!! She provided outstanding communication, attention to detail with pet needs, and kindness and love to our bunnies! 100% will recommend Kari for pet sitting services - she is an outstanding individual! Thank you again for taking care of our bunnies!”

“This young lady is simply the best. I made in error in booking and she caught it and did the footwork for me to fix it, so simple. My cats love her, she is reliable, dependable, honest and gives us a comfort level when leaving our cats that we have never had before.”

“Mikaela took wonderful care of my kitties, rooster and lizard while I was away. It was great peace of mind knowing they were being checked on daily. It was also nice having a record of what was done each day with pictures, along with a report of how everyone was. How fun seeing your pets through someone else's eyes. Makayla's descriptions cracked me up, the antics of all of them in their own way. She described my rooster as being sassy to her one day, I really did lol because that's a perfect description of him. Overall I am so incredibly pleased with my experience with Makayla. She is very likeable right from the start and easy to communicate with. Setting up an initial meeting was simple. She understood my instructions, had no problem asking for clarification if she didn't understand or forgot a detail. Everything was in order when I returned home. I'm happily pleased with the overall experience and would book with Makayla again. Thank you Makayla!!”

“Exceptional young woman!!!”

“Maila was an exceptional caregiver to our shy cat! He has always been standoffish when strangers come to our home. Malia was patient and exuded a calm demeanor and she won him over in a very short time. Our cat also requires insulin injections twice daily and she was an expert at that. She brought our mail in and cleaned the litter box daily. Maila sent us pictures and an update with each visit. We could not have been happier with Maila! Her professionalism and caring demeanor put our cat and us at ease. We plan on booking with her again! You will be so lucky if she cares for your pets!!”

“Brooke was great with our dogs! She is dependable and experienced, and our dogs love her. We will definitely have her back and highly recommend.”

“Edward was great with my mobility impaired pup!”

“Laura was great and was always on time to feed our cats everyday, they’re usually scared of strangers but she made them more comfortable and social than they have been with previous cat sitters!”

“Jason's help is so appreciated! Our dog Sam was well taken care of (feeding & walking). It looks like Sam made new friends and had fun playing. We would ask for him to come sit Sam again. Thank you !”

“Mary is amazing with pets. She is patient and waits for them to communicate there needs with her. She takes her time to learn their language and works with them. She is very knowledgeable about how to care for dogs and cats illnesses. She provides a safe loving environment and knows when to seek emergent care. She gives me peace of mind when I cannot be home with my furbaby.”

“Jon truly has a way with dogs and cats. They seem to calm down and be happy in his presence. An incident a few days ago comes to mind, showing his ability to care for animals. He was at a neighbor of both of ours, checking on her dogs. He came out of her house and a stray dog was outside. He got it to come up to him, but there wasn’t a tag, soon there were 7 dogs! I remembered that another neighbor nearby, had a lot of dogs, so he literally led the dogs to their home, so in a few minutes, he cared for the safety of 11 dogs! The first neighbor had 4!”

“I couldn’t be happier with the care my dog, Winston, received. Malliķa was incredibly professional, trustworthy, and genuinely caring. It gave me peace of mind knowing my pup was in such great hands!”

About: I have a lot of experience with various animals besides dogs and cats. I also have worked with live stock, lizards and exotics. I worked at a massive boarding kennel were I learned to administrate various medications pills and insulin shots, learned basic training techniques, and over all general care for domestic animals. From this experience I started my own pet sitting business which I did off and on for a few years. Then pick up some business for a little extra cash in dog walking and pet sitting. I have taken a break from that to raise my daughter and become more established at my current job, but miss working with animals and would like to get back to helping those I can. I mainly would like to assist in dog walking, but if some pet sitting needs to be had, I'd be more than happy to assist there as well. I found from working in the boarding kennel, many dogs do find it more comfortable in a home setting then a kennel. I do work full time, M-Th 6:30 to 5 pm. I can take in 1 to 2 dogs in my home during this time, I do have a dog door and do come home for an hr for lunch. I do have a dog, so any dogs in my home would need to get along with mine. However, I can do dog walking in the evenings on Thursdays starting at 6 pm to 8 pm during summer months. Otherwise Fridays and weekends are best. Any time Friday, though occasionally I may not be available in the afternoons due to dropping off my daughter, Sat I can be available anytime, and Sunday Mornings and Evenings are best. Some afternoons are available if I don't have to pick up my daughter. I have a dog door with a 4 ft fence and a 6 ft fence on the sides separating my neighbors and I. If your dog is playful, I have a very playful and submissive dog. I'm very respectful of other peoples space and am great at communicating the needs of the owner for their pet. I'm accustomed to following written instructions and do like to meet ahead of time to meet the pet and go over feeding and/or medication instructions. I may have my 5 year old daughter with me, however, if the animal does not do well with children, please communicate that so no incidences happen. If I cannot have my daughter around, will be harder for me to commit to any sort of sitting or walking.

“As usually, Melissa did a fantastic job taking care of our two cats! I cannot recommend her highly enough, especially if you have a cat that requires special treatment like our senior.”

“Chase has been not just my, but my whole family’s pet sitter for years. He has helped my family, my in-laws, and my siblings with their pets and never once been disappointed. He is absolutely phenomenal! He is great at sending pictures and updates because let’s be honest we all worry about our fur babies when we’re gone and Chase takes that stress away with consistent texts, pictures, and videos. He also is a great house guest and cleans up so well. I would highly recommend him to anyone.”

“Elizabeth went above and beyond with my pup! She is patient and willing to work with you and your dog to fit your needs! I highly recommend utilizing her services!”

“Megan is amazing! Very communicative and easy to work with. She is the epitome of professionalism and cares for her furry clients deeply! Will rebook as long as we can with her!”

“Fiona is reliable, responsive, and trustworthy. She loves animals and I trust that when my pups are with her, they are well cared for. She texted me frequent updates with pictures of how everyone was doing. I recommend Fiona as a pet sitter to everyone!”

“Mark is very knowledgeable about dogs and dog mentality. He will be a great addition to your team! He has a very calming presence with animals and dogs in particular!”

“While Lauren lived in our rural neighborhood, she was the go to person to take care of your animals while you were away. Virtually all of her neighbors that had pets called her to care for their pets. She took care of dogs, cats, horses, chickens, goats, ducks and any other animals you had. She was always great with them. I highly recommend her.”
