Dog Sitting Florence

“I have large guardian breeds, and finding someone I trust with them isn't something I take lightly. Kate has consistently exceeded every expectation. She's calm, confident, responsible, and has a natural ability to connect with dogs that can be intimidating to most people. What truly sets her apart is her proactive communication. I never have to wonder how things are going because she's already sent an update, photo, or thoughtful note before the question even crosses my mind. She treats communication the same way she treats pet care—with attention, professionalism, and genuine care. Kate has that rare combination of reliability and intuition. She notices the little things, anticipates needs, and makes both pets and owners feel completely at ease. Whether it's managing routines, handling strong personalities, or simply showing up consistently and dependably, she does it all with grace. My dogs don't hand out trust easily, and neither do I. Kate earned both. If Rover had a Hall of Fame, she'd be in it.”

“Apryl did an amazing job watching over my cat while we were out of town for a few days! She kept me updated and sent me videos and pictures of my baby❤️ Will be rebooking in the future”

About: I have had animals my whole life, my experience has entailed caring for dogs in their basic needs, maintaining training and working on other commands, as well as taking them to any appointments that were in order. I really enjoy time spent with dogs, and just like me I understand that most people consider their dogs to be family. I like meeting new dogs and learning all their little personalities. I would be great as a sitter or walker because I genuinely care about animals and feel that they make life so much more fun and enjoyable. I have experience with both larger breeds and small breeds so I am comfortable around all different kinds. I wish I could have more animals so this is the only acceptable alternative :)

About: I’m an animal lover, especially dogs and cats. I’ve dog sat for my family many times. I am available almost always as I work from home your pet won’t be left alone. I have 2 years experience as a dog trainer and many more as a dog owner. I can also bathe and brush your pups if you need me to at an extra cost. If you want I can also train them basic commands with rewards at an extra cost. I will play with and care for your fur babies as I would my own. I will follow any dietary needs or routines you have. If you choose me your pets will be in great hands. I currently work from home so I will be available all day to take care of and play with your pets. I’m available all week for sitting. If your cat is staying with me, I provide a safe, cozy, and clean environment. Cats will have their own space for food, litter, and rest, plus enrichment time with toys and cuddles. I treat each pet like family, ensuring they get both physical care and emotional comfort.

About: Hey there, I’m Brooke! 🐾 I’m totally convinced dogs are little love-machines sent to make our lives better. My two goofballs, Kiya and Amus, are the stars of my profile pics—and the bosses of my household. I adore all animals, but dogs? Yep, they’ve stolen my heart (and most of my snacks). They deserve the absolute best, and I’m here to help make sure they get it! Got questions about your fur-kid? Need advice? Want to gush about how cute they are? Message me anytime—I’d love to chat! 🐶💕 Pet care will be a daily activity to keep our pets healthy and happy. Eating, sleeping, potty breaks and love keep your pet very health. This is always needed routinely Pets will be watched at all times. Safety first! I take safety seriously not just for others dos but my own. Safety is no joke!

“Chelsey is amazing. She is kind, professional, and our dog Maggie loved her immediately. Chelsey took the time to get to know our dog, her play and food habits, and she makes sure Maggie is loved for the entire visit. My fiance and I loved meeting Chelsey so we booked weekly recurring visits to help Maggie have more fun when we are at work.”

About: Have had pets since I was a child. Always dogs, sometimes cats, reptiles, rodents, or fish... often combinations of more than one of the above I have a flexible work schedule that allows me to give your pets as much attention as they want. Can also take entire days of from work to focus on pets as needed. I have a fenced yard in a quiet neighborhood with a laid-back pug and an aloof cat who likes to hide in the bedroom (she has a lock that lets her in while keeping dogs out) when strangers are about.

“Our Meet and Greet was great! Our pups were safe and sound and HAPPY when we returned home!!! Marina did a great job! Plus, she lives close so a great fit.”

About: 🐾 Experienced & Trustworthy Dog Walker and Pet Sitter Providing reliable, loving, and attentive care for dogs and cats of all breeds and personalities. Experienced with daily walks, drop-ins, feeding routines, playtime, and making pets feel safe, comfortable, and happy while their owners are away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I make time for walks, playtime, feeding schedules, and regular check-ins throughout the day to ensure pets feel comfortable, active, and cared for. I also keep pet parents updated with photos and communication for peace of mind. I provide care in my client’s home so pets can stay comfortable in their familiar environment and routine. I follow all feeding, walking, medication, and care instructions carefully while giving pets plenty of attention, playtime, companionship, and exercise. I also make sure their space stays clean and safe, and I provide regular updates and photos so owners feel reassured while they’re away.

About: I know that pets can become confused and upset while you are away. I will make sure their needs are met with compassion and love. I will spend whatever amount of time needed with them to assure they are happy and comfortable. I take care of my husband who is a disabled veteran and have free time to meet your pets needs, treating them as if they were my own We have two dogs and three mischievous cats. I'm available to take as much time as needed during visits to ensure all of their needs are met and they are comfortable and loved

About: I have worked with all kinds of pets over the years! I can administer medicine. I’m able to work with more aggressive breeds. I can even take your pup to our amazing dog park and ensure they have a great time. I work part time from home now, so I have a very open schedule! Mornings and overnights are definitely preferred from me, but I can always be flexible! I allow doggies on our furniture. I have space for crates if your dog likes to sleep in a crate at night. There’s no other dogs in my home, so they will receive full attention from me.

About: As a kid I was taught responsibility by caring for our horses, cats, dogs, birds, fish and guinea pigs. I’ve had pets all my life! My mom’s cat almost died of a bacterial infection in her mouth and I’ve helped administer antibiotics to her until she got better. I had a cat who had kidney disease and needed to have IV fluids every week. My other cat had to be mouth fed with a syringe as well as monitored via thermometer up his butt. I have house and pet sit for friends and family that have multiple pets, most recently for a friend that had 6 dogs of all sizes! I am an active individual so walking will be a treat for them and me! :) I have given dogs and cats baths and also cared for dogs in heat. I have a very open and wide range of availability and I am available most days, including weekends and holidays as I rarely ever go out of town. It would be great to develop some long term relationships with new pets and their owners! Repeats are always great but not expected. I will do what I can to work with your schedule and the needs of you and your fur child. I will do my best to maintain consistency and high-level care when it comes to your pet. Each pet is different and I try to get to know each one individually in order to gain their trust and yours and provide the best care possible. Often times, I will send pictures to the pet owner, especially if it is a new client or a pet owner is out of town for an extended amount of time. I am easily reachable and try to communicate clearly about wants, needs, and scheduling. I prefer to do a meet and greet prior to providing a service, but it is not mandatory, especially for last minute bookings! We have a small yard in front and neighbors that will walk their dogs but they are all on leashes and well behaved. We live in a newer and safe community and I often take my dog for a walk around the neighborhood. There is a small park down the street which is nice too. We also have a fenced in backyard which can be seen from the inside of the house or the porch. We live in a one story house, but there are steps from the porch to the yard outback. My husband lives with me and has also grown up with cats and dogs. We currently have one male cat Santiago who gets along great with our male Chihuahua Juan Pablo and also got along great with my former senior Maine coon cat. He is a bit weary of strangers at first, but he will just hide until he gets to know you a bit and then you won’t be able to get him off of your lap. We have a gate in between the kitchen and the rest of the house so that the Chihuahua can have free rain to walk around and not have to be in his cage when we are not home. In the event that we have another animal in the house we can keep the Chihuahua in his cage. We also have two bedrooms and two baths that can be used to separate animals.The Chihuahua is very friendly and gets along great with the cat. He is also a bit skittish at first with strangers but once he gets to know you all he wants to do is give you kisses. He is very non-aggressive and barely ever barks. He is also very friendly. I feed my cat both wet and dry food twice a day in his food dish and he has water out constantly. I feed the dog twice a day, sometimes dry food, and sometimes refrigerated dog food. I let the dog out several times a day and we go for a daily walk as well. I clean the kitty litter box once a day. I snuggle and cuddle with both of them as much as possible, and play fetch with the dog at various points throughout the day.

About: I love animals since I could remember. I would love to have a farm some day. I got my first dog when I was 8z I learned to give a bath, brush, potty trained, and taught few tricks. I am currently working as a teacher for special needs and deaf. I am hoping to be a teacher someday and I’m working on getting my certification. I have three fur babies: 2 dogs and 1 cat. I used to own a tortoise but I gave it to a science teacher who is teaching next to my classroom. I have a crate, 2 dog parks at my apartment.

About: I have had animals my whole life. I’ve owned, fostered, pet sit and loved animals for many many years. I will go above and beyond for your fur baby My husband and I both work from home and are home all day everyday. We have a dog and a cat, but could easily add more pets into our routine. I live in a house on an acre of property. It is not fenced, but we have long leashes to let a dog play outside and will obviously be very careful.

About: My name is Evelia, I have loved and cared for dogs pretty much my entire life! I work from home, so your doggies will never be unattended. I live super close to the Brownsville Sports park for nice walks with your furry baby. My friends and I organize Brownsville’s biggest party of the year for your four legged animals called Pawty! My love for dogs is so big I volunteer my time for this event to continue the mission of rescuing dogs at Brownsville Animal Defense. As a dog owner I understand the importance and stress it is to find a reliable, responsible dog sitter for your fur baby. Your dog will receive love and the best care possible. Please let me be there for your dog when you can’t.

About: I’ve grown up training dogs, learning about their behaviors, and researching the best ways to care for them. They’re my all- time favorite animals, so I love spending my time with them :) I live on a few acres in Liberty Hill, with a few intact male dogs on the property; along with poultry, livestock, and other livestock guardian dogs. I currently work in the mornings, so my own dogs are let outside to play in my yard while I am out. They’re not destructive or escapees, so they have the special privileges now :) I have a very large fenced in yard with lots of toys and extra space outside to walk, with the entire property fenced. There are a few intact male dogs, so I don’t accept any intact male dogs for safety reasons. I have two extra crates to use if necessary while I am running an errand.

About: As a dedicated animal lover, I stand out with my deep understanding of canine/human interaction, and I offer personalized care tailored to each dog's needs. I am an expert handler of various breeds, administering medication, and creating a stress-free environment for your pet. With a genuine love for dogs and a knack for anticipating their needs, I ensure your pet feels safe, loved, and entertained while you're away. I have two dogs of my own, Rocky, a 5.5 yr old Belgian Malinois, and Lola, a 3 yr old Golden Retriever/Border Collie mix. Your pet will have all of the fun they can handle and will leave with 3 new best friends! I work from home 5 days a week and have incredible flexibility. I am home most of the of the time and when I am not, I am usually not too far away for too long. I can provide breaks and all the attention your pet needs almost anytime needed. I have 2 dogs to help keep your pups happy. Lola is the friendliest girl with lots of energy and an unrelenting desire to make new friends everywhere she goes. Rocky, is a retired police k9 who has the perfect balance of energy and calmness to welcome any new pup into our home. I routinely let them outside to play and use the restroom at a minimum of once every 2 hours. My pets are allowed anywhere in the house. It is two stories with multiple rooms so there are always places for them to have space if they need it. There are plenty of beds, toys, and friends to play with while they are here! I do have two large kennels that I never use, but if your pet prefers to sleep in a kennel in its own space, I am happy to provide that for them. Otherwise, they will be free to relax wherever they would like.

“Great work!”

About: I’ve cared for animals for 15+ years and genuinely love getting to know each pet’s unique personality and routine. While I have extensive experience with dogs and cats of all ages, I’ve also cared for reptiles and other small animals, so I’m comfortable with pets that may need more specialized care and attention. What sets me apart is that I treat every pet like they’re my own. I pay close attention to routines, behavior changes, feeding schedules, medications, and comfort levels so pets feel safe, relaxed, and loved while you’re away. Whether your pet is high-energy, shy, senior, anxious, or needs special handling, I’m patient, dependable, and happy to adjust to what makes them most comfortable. I’m also big on communication and know how important peace of mind is for pet parents, so I make sure to send regular updates, photos, and check-ins throughout the stay. Please reach out to coordinate and schedule what works best for you. I work as a team alongside my husband, so we have a ton of flexibility. I always do my best to keep pets comfortable, safe, and stress-free by sticking closely to their normal routines. In a client’s home, I respect both the pet’s space and the owner’s home while making sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and affection. I pay close attention to feeding schedules, medications, potty breaks, and behavior changes so pets stay happy and healthy while you’re away. I’m experienced with pets that need extra patience or specialized care, including senior pets, anxious animals, and reptiles with specific feeding or habitat needs. Safety is very important to me, so I’m careful with doors, leashes, temperatures, interactions with other animals, and anything else that helps keep pets secure and comfortable.
