Cat Sitting in Fort White

About: I love dogs and having one of my very own whom I adore more than ever, I can assure you your furry friends will be safe, well cared for, and without a doubt will love me! I've taken care of dogs of all sizes, and cared for litters of puppies as well. I am a college student. I'm looking forward to earning extra money between classes and spending lots of time with your fur babies. I love animals and so excited to help people take care of their pets. When I’m taking care of pets in a client’s home, I stick to whatever routine the owner has for feeding, walks, playtime, and medication. I always make sure they’ve got fresh water, clean bowls, and a comfy space. I clean up any messes, take care of the home while I’m there, and make sure their pet feels safe and relaxed. I also send photo or text updates so the owner knows how things are going.

“Kim was very patient with my barky hyper Chico pup. I felt at ease leaving for a short trip. This was the first time I have ever used a dog service.”

“Last minute we decided we did not want to use a kennel to board Misty and turned to Rover very last minute. We found Emily and she responded immediately and agreed to take care of our 1 year old Lab who is very high energy loving everyone with overwhelming enthusiasm. She was timely and communicated her interactions with Misty putting our worries to rest allowing us to enjoy our day. We will continue to ask her to watch our girl when there is a need.”

“Brooke is fantastic. Very friendly and great with our dog. We’ve had some bad experiences with pet sitters in the past, so we’re always a little hesitant leaving our dog in someone else’s care. But Brooke has proven to be very dependable and trustworthy. Our dog loves her and Brooke spends quality time with her – not just a quick “in-and-out” walk or visit like you see with other pet sitters. We are very happy with Brooke and glad we found her.”

About: For as long as I can remember, there has always been animals in my house, but the last 13 years are where my real growth has happened for me as a pet parent and carer. In my own home, there’s always been a variety from dogs to hedgehogs to cats to lizards. I have often found myself as a haven for wayward creatures in need of respite. I have experience caring for, raising, and training puppies as well as caring for senior dogs. I work full time as a teacher but I am often around on the weekends and evenings and am happy and able to make pets a part of my routine! Any space I am in is always treated with the upmost respect— I don’t touch what isn’t mine, I don’t touch what I don’t need to. Integrity and honesty are paramount. If there is an issue with anything, I of course will be upfront about it, as that is what I would expect and want from anyone in my home. Trusting me to come into your home is a big deal, and I would never want to jeopardize your peace of mind.

“Lindsay did a great job taking care of my cat. She even offered to make an extra trip to bring in a Amazon package. She provided lots of photos and updates in the Rover Card which helped put me at ease with my anxious kitty. My cat came out on the first day Lindsay stopped in which means she must have made her feel safe. :)”

About: I grew up with dogs so I have lots of experience caring for them! Over the past couple of years I have started to dog sit for friends and neighbors as well. I am available for drop in visits and walks. If you need playtime or feeding I am here for you! Over summer I am working part time so I will have plenty of time to help out with your pet care needs! I am available for drop in visits and walks. I am available for your pet care needs for dogs and cats! Whether you need drop in visits walks, playtime, feeding, and more I am here for it!

About: I was born and raised around animals. Dogs and horses being the primary, I've had a couple cats and a bird when I was little. All of my dogs I have gotten as puppies and have done the training myself. I am willing to train in any language you want (basic commands) and I have experience working in vet clinics, which will make it easier for me to see incoming medical concerns. I can tend to your babies outside of my full time job. I do have a 6 year old that has also been raised around animals. I will give them time to go outside play and potty and recieve lots of love (if they like to cuddle). Cuddle time is vital.

“Darren is WONDERFUL..!!. Was a complete lifesaver. I would definitely recommend him to anyone. He even cleaned the spider webs off my garage door so it would close all the way. (Above and beyond what he should of). LOL. And I'm very sure my dog, Addison, really enjoyed him coming to the house.”

About: I have been a veterinary technician/nurse for the past 13 years. My whole life is dedicated to animals and providing them compassionate care. I have worked in a general practice for the last 13 years working with companion animals (cats and dogs) but I have grown up with birds, ferrets, fish, turtles and hamsters. I also have a degree in agriculture and have cared for livestock. I truly love all animals and will always take care of each individual pet as if they were my own. I have a team of veterinary professionals that I can reach out to if there was every animal emergency or guidance needed. My goal is to make sure that while the pet parent is away, their loved ones are well cared for! Pet care is a daily staple for me: my job is very flexible and I am able to move my job around to tend to the needs of the pets I am caring for. Whether that’s me coming home on a regular basis or stopping by your home to a similar routine of your own. My goal is to achieve the same routine you would have while you’re home to give your loved ones the stable routine they’re used too! In home: I have property where I can take the dogs out on long walks and can play with them with a great deal of space. They will always have access to water and will feed them according to their set schedules. I have space for crates if your pets do better crated while inside and if I’m away. They will be smothered with cuddles and treats if I’m able to. Clients Home: I will make sure to adhere to the routine you have already established at home, whether that’s long walks or playing in the backyard. Stick to the feeding schedule and ensure they are stress free while you’re away.

About: I’ve grown up around animals and have hands on experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities. I’ve fostered a variety of breeds from Great Danes to dachshunds and Rottweilers so I’m comfortable with different temperaments and needs. For the past 6 months, I’ve also been helping with pet sitting and dog care, including walks, feeding, playtime, and providing a calm, consistent routine. I always aim to make pets feel safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m based in Branford and commute to Gainesville for college, so my schedule can vary slightly throughout the semester. That said, I do my best to be flexible and accommodate requests whenever possible. I’m typically available for care in both areas, including weekends and many weekdays, including holidays with a proper heads up, and I’m happy to coordinate times that work best for you and your pet’s routine. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I take time to understand each pet’s routine, preferences, and any special needs. I’m experienced handling dogs with different energy levels and temperaments, and I always prioritize secure environments, proper leash handling, and careful supervision. I provide regular updates so you can feel confident your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for.

About: Hello! I am Ally, I am 33 and have an 8 year old son and have cared for dogs my whole life. Non smoking with one young puppy in the home. I have always had dogs as part of the family. I believe a pet is like adding another member to the family and will treat yours the same way. Ready to care for your animals as my own! Walks, runs, feeding, grooming, giving medication, baths, vet appts, etc. I do require that all dogs are vaccinated and taking flea and tick prevention. Feel free to reach out with any questions or concerns. I look forward to meeting you! Our pets are like family. Their routine is very similar to my own in being on a schedule of eating, playing, sleeping, and getting plenty of love! Our home is in a very private area with minimal traffic. They will enjoy the peace and quiet indoors and plenty of run and play time outdoors.
