About: I’m a responsible, loving, and attentive pet caretaker who treats every animal like my own. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or quiet cuddle time, I make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and cared for. With experience and genuine love for animals, I’m committed to giving them the attention and affection they deserve while you're away. I also provide you with updates through texts with pictures! I am a stay at home mom with a furbaby of our own, and I have complete open availability for overnight stays and play dates! "We have a large fenced in backyard that offers plenty of space for play and relaxation, nestled in a quiet and peaceful cul-de-sac. Our friendly 2 yr old Golden Retriever, Lucy, loves to play fetch and welcomes new friends with a wagging tail. Pets are treated like family in our home-they're welcome on our oversized sectional. Fresh water is always available, along with treats (with your permission), and a variety of toys to keep them entertained and happy

“Ms. Vely rocks! This was Coco's first full Day with Ms. Vely, so when she took command right away I was glad for that since she was a fresh face for my Coco to get used to over a long period of time. She is so wonderful and kind with doggies, I had no doubt she'd get my boy out of his shell. She updated us with photos and short videos throughout her time with Coco to show our little man was doing just awesome..... And the tongue hanging out the side of his mouth with a big toothy grin showed that she sure did get him out of his shell! Coco was even a gentleman doggie and made sure to follow her inside after every jaunt outside! Glad to have found Ms. Vely and glad to have her watch him again! You cannot go wrong with Ms. Vely!”

“Susan is always great with our puppy! He had surgery this week and she took the best care of him while I was at work. She is our go to sitter, and she is so flexible with my schedule!”

“Megan and Cody are a wonderful, personable couple. Took great care of Lily on short notice. I would highly recommend them and would definitely use them again if the opportunity arises. Four paws up!!!”

“We tried a doggy daycare for the first time using Rover. Karla provided exactly what we needed. She was very attentive and kept us informed throughout the day. We highly recommend her and will definitely use Karla again for our dog care needs.”

About: Firstly, I will listen to your pet's needs that you have, and follow them accordingly. Secondly, I will play with your babies and pay attention to them, with love and affection. I will walk with them around the Lake's, and engage them, by talking to them, so that they know they are loved by me. Thirdly, I do like to play catch and engage them in different games, so their time away from you will fly by for them. Lastly, I am not trained in the Heimlich for dogs, nor CPR, but I have had to do the Heimlich on my own dog, whom was choking on food, to save her life. I look forward to playing with your babies. Thank you so very much.

“Patricia was awesome! She was so loving and caring to our “Nervous Nellie”, Cinder, a cocker spaniel with issues. Patricia communicated throughout the day with messages and pics. It was a wonderful experience and we would certainly give her 6 stars if we could.”

Patty G.

“Shelisha is such a kind person! We felt very safe leaving our 5 lb Shih Tzu with her while we went to a Detroit Tigers game. Her communication is excellent. She even sent us pictures of our Ruby while we were away. Very pleased!”

About: I've had dogs my entire life. I have worked at dog boarding facilities and various rescues over the years. I am currently a volunteer with a local rescue in Lakeland. I have three small dogs of my own, who are like my kids. I’m home most of the time so your pet will rarely be unsupervised but when I do need to leave the house, I have steps and protocols in place to assure your pet's safety while I am away. I have a 6ft privacy fenced back yard. All lawn care items are locked away in a shed to lessen the risk of your pet getting into anything potentially toxic. I supervise feedings and separate dogs, if necessary. I can also administer oral medications.

“Rachel was fantastic! Communication was great and pet care was even better. My Wife and I thought Rachel was great from start to finish and our dog. Layla was very happy to stay and hang out with Rachel for the day.”

Christopher C.

“Maria was fantastic! It was our first time leaving our puppy with somebody and she made us feel so at ease. She took great pictures and our pup came home content and tired from the fun day she had :)”

About: I am almost done with my CVA, which has given me hands-on experience with animal care and a strong understanding of animal behavior, basic health needs, and how to recognize when a pet may be stressed, uncomfortable, or need extra attention. I’m very attentive to routines like feeding schedules, medications, potty breaks, exercise, and any specific care instructions you have for your pet. I also volunteered at a horse rescue for 6 years, which has helped me become even more patient and comfortable working with animals that all have different personalities and needs. Whether your pet is a playful puppy who needs consistency and extra energy or an older pet who needs a gentler approach, I’m confident in providing calm, dependable care and making sure they feel comfortable while you’re away! Pet care is already a big part of my everyday routine. I currently attend CVA school Monday through Thursday from 6-10 PM, and because it’s a veterinary program, I’m able to bring new animals with me every day if that’s something an owner is comfortable with. This allows me to spend even more time with your pet and keep them with me throughout the day. Outside of school, I’m available the rest of the day and can realistically spend most, if not all, of my time with your pet. I also care for my own animals every day, including my dogs, cat, and reptiles—a snake, bearded dragon, turtle, and leopard gecko—so feeding, walking, playtime, bathing, cleaning cages, and keeping their spaces clean are all part of my normal routine. My entire day is basically centered around animals between school and caring for my own pets, so pet sitting fits very naturally into my life. I care for pets with a lot of attention, and fun! I usually feed my pets at the same time every day and follow a schedule, but I keep it flexible so it works for each pet’s needs. I give dry food and simple medications like NexGard but, I also have experience handling special diets and other medications.     Playtime happens whenever pets seem bored or want to go outside. I have lots of toys, treats, and fun activities inside, and I enjoy running with dogs outside or taking them on car rides. I also do some basic training for fun, though I’m not a professional trainer.   I keep spaces clean and comfortable, cages and tanks are cleaned regularly, puppy pads are replaced, and everything is wiped down with disinfectant as needed. Pets have their own quiet areas, toys, and treats to feel calm and safe. I’m very observant of their behavior, so I can notice when something feels off.    Pets aren’t left alone for long, except when I’m at school for a few hours. I’m used to managing multiple pets at once by keeping a close eye on everyone and giving each animal their own space when needed. My home is very clean, and I constantly sweep, mop, and vacuum.    Overall, I make sure pets are happy, safe, and comfortable, and I treat them as part of my family giving lots of love, attention, and care every day.

“Angelica is great with my little Sadie dog, as always!!! Sadie loves being with Angelica and I was able to get a last-minute daycare for her. Angelica put a super cute pink bandana with hot pink dog paws on Sadie, she looks so cute!! Thank you Angelica!”

“Skye is the absolute best. She genuinely cares for the animals she watches. We have been using her services for 3 years and we are totally satisfied with how well she takes care of our critters. Thank you, Skye, for being there and available at a moment's notice.”

About: I've taken care for dogs since I was a child. My truly love for them is unvaluable. They are my angels on the earth. Love each activities with them. I am completely available on weekdays and weekends. I can receive your pets and give them all the attention required as the case may be. My patio area is long and fenced, it meets safety guidelines. I don't have my own pets. I provide your pet with the same guidelines as an owner.

“Holli really eased my anxiety of leaving Blu. I will definitely be using her again if I need it. I highly recommend her.”
