About: My family has owned, fostered and cared for many dogs since I was very young. I grew up around dogs, cats, and small animals. I have owned and fostered a variety of dog breeds, both big and small, including rescues. I currently own 2 amazing rescue dogs named Cassie & Sasha, Cassie was a foster fail! I also have small animal experience. I own a leopard gecko (Lizzie) and 2 Guinea Pigs (Honey & Hazel). I have experience fostering both small & large breed dogs, as well as adult cats & kittens. I am confident and comfortable around a wide variety of animals, and I am ready to help you care for your fur baby! I send regular pictures and updates of any animal I care for. I am a full time remote employee, with a flexible work schedule. I am happy to accomodate the needs of your fur baby, as I am able to work around a variety of schedules! I care for pets in my client's home by maintaining a safe and comfortable environment. This includes following their routine, providing fresh water, feeding on their schedule, and engaging in playtime or exercise. I always keep a watchful eye on their behavior and health, ensuring they feel loved and secure while their owners are away! Communication with clients is key, so I would be more than happy to provide updates and report any concerns immediately to the pet parent.

Sereniti was amazing taking care of my dog during a 3 night stay, and I could tell she was treated like family. I got updates and pictures that showed Diamond happy, relaxed, and having fun. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing she was in such loving hands. I’ll definitely be booking with her again next time I travel! Thanks again.

About: As a customer service professional, I have developed strong communication, responsibility, and time-management skills that translate directly into pet care. I am comfortable following detailed instructions, maintaining routines, administering basic care, and ensuring pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I have experience caring for dogs and cats of various ages and temperaments and understand the importance of providing attentive, compassionate care while keeping owners updated with regular photos and messages. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I have a flexible schedule and enjoy spending time with animals. I am able to plan my day around feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and providing companionship. I prioritize consistency and reliability to ensure pets maintain their normal routines and feel comfortable while their owners are away. When caring for pets in a client's home, I follow their established routine as closely as possible to help pets feel comfortable and secure. This includes feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, administering basic care as instructed, and providing plenty of attention and companionship. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages so they can have peace of mind while they are away. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and stress-free environment for every pet in my care.

About: I volunteered with a puppy rescue for two years, which entailed taking care of dogs of all ages, sizes and breeds. My responsibilities included cleaning kennels, playing with pups, feeding pups, and occasionally medicating them. Dogs bring me so much happiness, so taking care of yours will be a joy! I am a recently graduated college student, so I have lots of time during the week to get out and about! I am an early riser, so mornings are not a problem for me. I can play with, feed, walk, or simply supervise pets in the client's home. I can also bring pets to my own home, which has lots of living room space and a good neighborhood to walk in.

This was our first effort to try a pet sitter. Our dog has major anxiety issues with thunderstorms. This makes it rather difficult in the Florida area during summer to leave her alone. I was so happy to find a petsitter in our local area. Regina corresponded promptly from the initial inquiry to the completion. She arrived right on time and sent several pictures to us while we were away. Our dog experienced a bloat episode, which she has had in the past, and Regina handled the episode wonderfully. She even followed up about her the next morning. Very happy with Regina and recommend her.

About: I have been caring for pets of family and friends since childhood, and over time it naturally became a passion. I have experience with cats, large and small dogs, guinea pigs, hamsters, and currently I have a rabbit of my own. I am also an exotic pet lover. I have always researched and studied a lot about animal care and health, I like to go beyond the basics to make sure I can provide the best care for my pets. One of my biggest challenges (and achievements) was training my rabbit at home <3 I have always been very attentive with my pets’ health, I even had a personal veterinarian for all of them, including routine check-ups for my hamster haha. For me it is really easy to have a connection with animals and quickly build trust with them, which helps me understand their needs and behaviors. I truly hope to become a veterinarian in the future and continue dedicating my life to animal care. I believe that any living being that is dependent and innocent deserves the highest level of care, love, and protection possible. I currently work part-time, but due to the low season I have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to pet care. I’m able to adapt easily to each pet’s needs and provide consistent, loving care throughout the day. I live in a gated community, in a apartment with a lot of space. The condominium offers a dedicated dog park with a fenced area where dogs can safely run and play, as well as walking trails for daily exercise. If needed, I can also share photos of the environment so you can feel fully confident and comfortable about where your pet will be staying <3
