Cat Sitting Fort Hamer

“I can't recommend Jill enough! She took outstanding care of our cat 'Socks' while we were out of state for a week. Our one cat, Socks, is 18 plus years old and needs daily interaction or he panics. He really enjoyed all the attention from Jill and this was clear from the daily updates from Jill. Socks seemed to look forward to her visits. We arrived home to a calm and purring cat child. Jill took great care of him and we feel extremely pleased that we can take another trip away for a week if Jill is available.”

About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats for my entire life, including my current two dogs and three cats, so I’m very comfortable with different personalities, routines, and energy levels. I’m used to feeding schedules, walks, playtime, litter boxes, water bowls, cleanup, and keeping a close eye on how pets are acting day to day. I’m patient with shy animals, happy to give energetic pets extra play and attention, and comfortable caring for senior pets or pets who need a little extra gentleness. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets, so I’ll always follow your instructions closely, communicate clearly, and treat your pets like they’re my own. Pet care is already a big part of my everyday routine! I have two dogs and three cats of my own, so feeding schedules, walks, playtime, water bowls, litter boxes, and little pet check-ins are second nature for me. My schedule is flexible, and I’m happy to work with your pet’s normal routine as much as possible so they feel comfortable and cared for. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and general pet care visits, and I’ll always make sure your pet gets attention, patience, and updates while you’re away. For both cats and dogs, I focus on keeping their routine as normal, safe, and low-stress as possible. In your home, I’ll follow your instructions closely for feeding, water, walks, potty breaks, litter boxes, medications, crates, gates, treats, playtime, and house rules. I’m careful with doors, leashes, windows, fenced areas, and making sure pets are secure before I leave. For dogs, I’ll pay attention to their energy level, leash behavior, and comfort with people or other animals. For cats, I’ll respect their space, check hiding spots, keep litter areas clean, and make sure each cat is accounted for. I’ve cared for both cats and dogs for many years and currently have both, so I’m comfortable with different personalities, ages, and routines. I’ll send updates and photos so you know your pets are safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away.

About: Since I was born there has always been at least 1 dog in my home. From senior dogs to puppies. Energetic dogs to couch potatoes. I’ve had them all! I am comfortable with and capable of taking care of dogs at all times of life! I’m currently not working, so I have plenty of time on my hands to take care of lots of furry friends! My schedule is open all day every day! I can let the dog(s) out in the yard if you have one as well as walk them. My eyes would be on them at all times and play time is promised!

“We had such a great experience with Samira! She took amazing care of our three cats and kept us updated the whole time with lots of pictures, which gave us such peace of mind while we were away. She even went the extra mile to troubleshoot our Litter-Robot and gave it a good cleaning. You can tell she truly cares about the animals she’s taking care of. She was amazing, and we would definitely recommend her and use her again!”

About: I’ve had pets my entire life. From mixed bred dogs to Alaskan Malamutes and cats. Your pet will cared for like they are my own!! I’ve slightly trained my dog when she was younger (Alaskan Malamute) but now she tells me what to do 😂. I’m currently on summer break as I work as a Substitute Para for Elementary schools. I’m also an actor trying to find a place in this world. I’d love to be able to work flexible enough for my dream career but also hang out with awesome animals 😊 I will follow exactly why the client asks of me. I can feed, walk, change litter boxes, hang out and brush if needed. I will try to earn the trust from the animal and hopefully they will let me play with them!

“Wonderful to work with! Kaitlin's always on time & so loving to our little Maisie girl ❤️ Looking forward to our future walks with her.”

“Dylan is my hero! He took excellent care of my cats and helped me out of a big jam when I lost the keys to my house and my car while I was out of town. He went above and beyond and I am eternally grateful.”

About: I've spent years caring for dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities, and I have been dog sitting and walking for over 10 years. I love getting to meet each and every pet, from the young energetic ones to the old sweet seniors. It is a pleasure getting to care for some of the most important members of your family. I've worked with cats and dogs most frequently, but am always happy to meet and help care for other types of animals too. I am also more than comfortable in multi-pet households, the more the merrier! I have experience giving medications as well, so even if your pet has a more intricate routine, they'll be in good hands. I work a few days a week, with my Wed, Fri, and Sat being routinely wide open, giving me plenty of time to play and care for your loved pets. I am also available any other day after 3:30p. I will always follow care instructions to a t. No matter if your pet prefers long walks, playtime in the yard, some cool enrichment indoors, or to help with feeding time or administering medicine, I will do all that needs to be done to ensure a safe and caring service for your pet.

“Great experience! Would recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter!”

About: We have taken care of multiple dogs at a time and grew up with a dogs as well. We have a cat Jen adopted five years ago as well. Jen currently works from home and can work from anywhere there is wifi. Our cat can stay at home and is pretty independent so we can focus on your pets while you’re away. We will follow whatever instructions that are left. We take great care in making the environment as normal for the pets as possible and will leave your home in the same, if not better shape than when you left it.

About: I have taken care of dogs since before I can remember. I have grown up around dogs and a few cats my whole life, and I truly love helping others take care of their furry best friends too! I am going into my freshman year of college locally this Fall 2026 and I would love to be able to work around my class schedule and my schedule with my sales job. I make sure pets have everything they need including their food, water, and whatever else their owners need me to give them. I take dogs outside for either a 10-15 minute walk a few times a day or, if you have a backyard, I’ll play with the dog in the backyard. I give both dogs and cats lots of pets and attention during my time with them and make sure I leave the house clean of anything the pets have done while the owners weren’t home. I make sure all the doors leading into the house are securely locked before leaving and make sure that nothing harmful to the pets is left within their reach.

About: Hello, my name is Melanie! I've had dogs all my life both small and large. Over the past 12 years I have been pet sitting and dog walking for both friends and family. I am an experienced sitter who you can trust to take amazing care of your pup. I take any (and all) opportunities to snuggle and go on fun adventures with dogs. If you have an athletic or active dog we can do walks, swimming, even to a play date at the park. If your dog is less active, we can bring our activity level to where your dog is most happy and comfortable I am currently a SAHM so my schedule is open and very flexible 7 days a week to care for dog walks or drop in visits. I will be happy to provide photos and updates during walks/drop in visits. Any and all instructions you leave for me will be followed with the utmost care to keep your little buddy happy!!

About: I offer reliable feeding, walks, and companionship, treating every pet with patience and care while respecting routines, instructions, and your home. I watch for changes in behavior and prioritize comfort, trust, and a low-stress environment. I currently work downtown Sarasota and spend much of my day walking and moving between locations. This makes pet walks and drop-ins a natural part of my routine, allowing me to provide reliable, attentive care and exercise for your pet. I follow your pet’s routine carefully, including feeding schedules, walks, and playtime. I make sure they have fresh water, plenty of attention, and a calm environment while you’re away. I respect your home, clean up after your pet, and follow any special instructions you provide. I also monitor behavior and wellbeing, so you can feel confident your pet is happy and safe.

“Tanya is wonderful with our 3 year old, active, Golden Retriever! She is reliable, professional, and very loving with our girl. She gave us wonderful feedback and pics during her visits.”
