House Sitting in Gainesville

“Haley was great! First time, and everything went really smoothly. We appreciated her communication and she clearly took great care of our pets while we were away.”

“Sarah did an incredible job watching my dog while I was away. She was so flexible in accommodating my flight cancellations. She was able to stay for 2 extra days while I tried to make it back home. I'm not sure what I would have done if she hadn't agreed to stay! She truly cared for my dog while I was gone. I will 100% use Sarah in the future!”

“Crystal is awesome! Being a veterinarian myself, I am pretty particular about who I choose to care for my dogs. Crystal is caring, detail-oriented, and compassionate. She had great communication with us about the booking and about how our dogs were doing and sent lots of pictures of them to keep our minds at ease while we were away. She was super understanding when our start and end dates needed to be changed due to unforeseen circumstances and I appreciated that so much. She has taken care of our dogs in our home twice now and I just booked her again for a longer trip. It is so nice to be able to relax knowing our dogs and our home are in good hands. I highly recommend Crystal to watch your fur babies!”

“Teagan was absolutely amazing with our pets! She took such great care of our dogs, Beppo and Haruki, and even went above and beyond by helping with our cats and managing everyone’s medications with such care and attention to detail. When we got back, our dogs were not only well taken care of: Beppo & Haruki were genuinely happy and in great health when we came back home. Teagan is reliable, compassionate, and clearly loves what she does. We would welcome her back into our home anytime and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and dedicated pet sitter!”

“We appreciate Randee's excellent care of our three cats! She was fantastic and we will definitely invite her back. Not only were our cats very relaxed when we got home, it was obvious that Randee took excellent care of our home as well. Randee's communication while we were away certainly gave us a sense of peace knowing that our fur babies were in her good hands. She is a wonderful person, very caring and professional. I recommend her without hesitation!!”

About: I've been a pet owner are caregiver for over 30 years. I am often contracted by family and friends for pet care and am wishing to expand my clientele/ I am currently exploring several avenues of freelance work, but my availability is still open, especially with notice. Theere are 6-8 weekends I will not be available, the most notable being Memorial and Labor Days weekends. I will have ample availability during Thanksgiving , Christmas and typical summer vavcation times. I will be happy to care for your pets in your home to reduce stress on your furbabies. I will be happy to provide play, petting, walking and pet related cleanup. I am confident at giving oral medication and subcutaneous injections due to past pet medical care.

About: I’ve grown up around both cats and dogs, and my love for animals has always been one of the few things I’ve been completely certain about. That passion led me into the veterinary field, where I’ve now worked for the past 3 years caring for animals of all breeds, ages, and personalities. Through my experience in veterinary medicine and boarding facilities, I’m comfortable caring for multiple pets at once while still making sure each animal receives individual attention, patience, and compassion. I’m also trained in administering oral medications, injections, and other basic medical care when needed. Working closely with animals every day has taught me how important trust, routine, and gentle handling are for pets while their owners are away. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, senior, or needs extra attention, I strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for like they’re part of my own family. I work weekdays 9am–5pm, but I prioritize pet care before and after work, ensuring pets receive attention, playtime, feeding, medications, and loving care. I’m also available on weekends. In my client’s home, I follow each pet’s normal routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. This includes feeding on schedule, providing fresh water, litter box cleaning, walks or playtime, and administering any medications as instructed. I also make sure to give plenty of attention, affection, and calm companionship so pets feel safe while their owners are away. I keep the home clean, respect all instructions, and provide updates so owners have peace of mind.

About: I currently don't have much professional experience with pet sitting, but I do have experience with being around others' pets and taking care of my own. Most of my real experience comes from taking care of my family's Australian Shepherd since I was a kid. We have gone on regular walks, maintained routines, and had plenty of playtime together. I'm currently working part-time and a full-time student. However, I still have plenty of time on my schedule throughout the week. I'll be able for walks or check-ins any time Tuesday-Friday. For boarding, the only set time that I have would be Fridays, but my schedule is always fluctuating and other days could also work. I provide attentive, personalized care based on each pet’s routine and needs. For boarding, I make sure to keep it as safe and comfortable for the pet while following their normal schedule. I also keep in mind the cleanliness of the house to ensure that it's kept as a pet-friendly space. During drop-in visits, I make sure pets are fed, have fresh water, get their neurons active, and look for any possible things I need to clean up. For walks, I focus on keeping your pet safe and engaged. I take into account how your pet reacts with other pets (or how you like to deal with it) and adjust the pace based on how they react to their surroundings. I understand the importance of following instructions carefully, so I can also provide updates to keep you at ease!

“She was the best dog sitter I’ve ever had! She went above and beyond, treating our pups like her own. I felt completely at ease knowing they were in such loving hands. I’ll definitely be booking with her again!”

About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was in high school, giving me plenty of experience with both cats and dogs. I will treat your pets like my own, and am committed to open communication- expect updates with every visit! I am a graduate student, so my weekday availability is limited, but my weekends have plenty of time free to spend with your pets! Let me know if you have any questions or special requests for your animals. I am a graduate student, so my weekdays are slightly limited. Wednesdays I have more time to check in. My weekends are a lot more free for check in visits! I currently do not offer pet care in my own home. I offer check in visits, walks, and house sitting. With regular clients, I may consider offering this service!

“Josephine took wonderful care of both Clara and my home over the weekend. She provided me with plenty of pictures and updates of how Clara was doing. And asked ample questions, making sure Clara would receive the best possible care while she was there. She even went as far as to clean up after herself before leaving, being helpful in more ways than just watching Clara. I would absolutely book Josephine again next time I need a dog sitter!!”

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them is truly my passion. I’ve been working with animals since I was a little girl, and one of my very first jobs was at a local pet shop called Aquarium Connection. Over the years, I’ve gained experience with all kinds of animals — from dogs and cats to reptiles, birds, and exotic pets. I personally own several reptiles myself, so I’m very comfortable caring for reptiles and birds in addition to traditional pets. I’m not afraid to get messy, handle shy or nervous animals, or care for pets with disabilities or medical needs. I’m experienced with giving medications and making sure animals feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. Animals have always shown me unconditional love and comfort throughout my life, and being able to give that same care back to them means everything to me. I treat every pet like family and always strive to provide patient, loving, and dependable care. Pet care is a night weekends and holiday job. There are no off days ! I’m currently available 24 seven 365. I am looking to make my passion for animals into a full-time job Caring for my animals and others, is my upmost priority. They receive 100% of my time and attention. I have a completely fence and backyard with plenty of room to run. Inside they have a chance to meet three kitties, and have all the toys in the world. If they’re feeling adventurous, my bearded dragon would probably like to meet them too.

“Juliette was very responsive, prompt, helpful and flexible. My 98 year old mom was hospitalized. And Juliette provided peace of mind when my mom's discharge was pending and everything got very complicated. She graciously offered to help me move some boxes so the oxygen company could deliver and she was flexible when everything got delayed.”

About: Growing up in my parents house I had 5 cats and 2 dogs. I love each one of my pets and their unique personalities, and they have been my biggest responsibility. I understand how difficult it is to leave a loved pet and know they are in good hands, so I treat each pet with the love and respect as if they were mine. I have a very flexible schedule, and can adjust to any accommodations. Available weekdays, weekends, days and nights! I am a student and work with pets as well as babysitting. For dogs I am more than happy to walk them, clean up after them, give them food and water and play with them as much as wanted! Same thing for cats as well as litter cleaning 😊

“Anastasia does amazing with all my pets and their needs. She’s very sweet, responsive, and willing to help - so happy we found her!”

“Riley stayed with my dogs for boarding at my place. I came home to two happy pups. Riley was easy to communicate with, left the space tidy, and kept me updated. Would definitely book again!”
