Dog Sitting Grant

“Girls seemed happy & taken care of!”

About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Since 2016, I have gained professional experience through animal shelters, veterinary hospitals, and caring for pets for veterinary clients. I hold a degree in Animal Science from the University of Florida and have experience with pets of all ages, breeds, temperaments, and medical needs, including administering medications and injections. Whether I'm stopping by for a visit, taking your dog for a walk, or staying in your home, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I pride myself on excellent communication, following pet parent instructions carefully, and providing reliable, attentive care. My goal is to give you peace of mind while you're away and make sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. Caring for animals has always been a part of my daily life. I have owned animals my entire life, so animal care is naturally built into my routine. In addition to my personal experience, I have worked in veterinary medicine and animal welfare settings, giving me extensive hands-on experience with pets of all ages and needs. I work full-time Monday through Wednesday, but I can often adjust my schedule to accommodate pet visits depending on location. The remainder of my week offers greater flexibility for walks, drop-in visits, and house sitting. I carefully manage my schedule to ensure every pet receives the attention, exercise, and care they deserve. When caring for pets in a client's home, I strive to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow all feeding, exercise, medication, and household instructions carefully while providing plenty of attention, enrichment, and affection based on each pet's personality and preferences. I have experience caring for pets with medical needs, senior pets, puppies and kittens, and those with behavioral challenges. Communication is very important to me, so I provide updates, photos, and videos when requested. I also treat my clients' homes with the same respect I would my own. Before the end of a house-sitting stay, I typically wash any bedding and towels I used, clean up after myself, and leave the home tidy so clients can return to both happy pets and a well-cared-for home.

“She gave a bit more food than instructed but overall was great with my pups.”

“Alexander took great care of my Sadie while I was out of town for almost a week. I could tell from the many photos taken at each check-in that she enjoyed her visits.”

Jessica P.

“Tonja was extremely professional and went above and beyond what I asked of her. I have 2 diabetic cats and besides daily pictures, she kept me informed of how many units were given and if they ate or drank water. She helped me out at the last minute and I highly recommend her for kitty care!!”

Beth G.

“I selected Gabriella because of her ability to administer insulin shots to my dog. She had an emergency with her own dog and even when going through an stressful time, she managed to show up and worked things out with me. I will certainly hire her again if needed, she acted very responsible and understood that my dog really needed her.”

Johanna A.

“First time on this app she was helpful, punctual and took good care of my puppy. She also came through for me last minute which I definitely appreciated. Ill be rebooking with her in the coming weeks no doubt”

Tom D.

“Great job - took excellent care of our kitties and kept us informed with photos and videos thanks!”

Kyla L.

“Jonathan was absolutely fantastic caring for our cat Sheba for 4 days during Thanksgiving. He was very polite, attentions, and accommodating to all our needs. He communicated with us at each twice-a-day visit, letting us know how she was, which gave us peace of mind. I cannot thank him enough for all the care and good work. We highly recommend him and we will definitely have him again.”

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities—from Chihuahuas to German Shepherd mixes—whether they were mine or part of someone else’s pack. I understand different temperaments and needs, and I treat every pup like family. Plus, I stay connected to expert advice through a close friend who’s a professional dog trainer. I’m fully available for dog walking, drop-ins, and in home services on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays. On Thursdays and Fridays, I’m available from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their established routines, provide loving attention, and keep the environment safe and clean. I ensure pets feel secure and happy while their owners are away, and I always respect the home as if it were my own.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs ever since I was 10 years old. I am a genuine animal lover and have gotten along with every pet I’ve come across with enough time. Every pet is different with a variety of needs, I’m here to understand that and give them the best care possible! I’m currently starting out on Rover so I do not currently have a routine. I am very open and fluid with scheduling so please reach out! I love spending time with animals so getting your pet to be comfortable with me is a big priority. Aside from caring for the specific needs for your pet, I would love to spend time playing or just chilling and petting your pet!

About: I love taking care of my family, friends, and coworkers pets. Seeing the joy form in the dog’s faces when I meet their needs is so accomplishing. I’d love to take care of yours! My schedule is always flexible and I’m ready to take care of your pet needs! I am a student and have a lot of time available. I love taking care of pets and every dog I have cared for is always excited to see me again. I can’t wait to meet your puppy!

About: Hi there! My names Allison. Im currently living in Vero and Melbourne. I take house sitting jobs in the Vero beach and Melbourne area. I have been taking care of all different types of animals all my life. From taking care of baby kittens to taking care of a new born puppy. Birds and reptiles as well. I love all animals and treat all animals the same. I am currently living in Vero Beach part time sitting for clients from as north as Melbourne FL, and I’m now taking care of my father and currently helping care for my moms seven animals. I am now looking to help others take care of their fur babies when needed. I’m free all the time and would love to take care of more animals. I take care of my pets daily from the minute. I wake up so the minute I go to bed. Both of my cats at home follow me everywhere and love their cat room that I made for them. I play with them daily and even make cute little projects for them. My most recent one was a little box for my one cat that wouldn’t let me get rid of a delivery box. I have had to give medication to animals as well. I’m very good at it and know how to administer medication‘s properly. I’ve also taken care of animals that have walking issues that are having issues with going outside. Many years of different types of animal care.

About: Hi! My name is SJ! I always wanted to find someone reliable, kind, gentle and understanding to watch my own girls when I needed to go out of town. So I decided to be that for others who may also need a lil help in the puppy department. Trusting someone with your fur babies is one of the hardest things... Let me help take that stress off of your shoulders. Leave a detailed message on how to care for your fur baby and I got you! I treat every animal as if it were a human. Dogs especially always find their way to me 😂 I'm basically Ms. Rachel , but for dogs 🤣 I can be available for drop in visits, or some in-home sitting, let me know what you need. No worries! For some reason my rates are all over the place on this app and there's no way for me to update them I keep it easy and the same for everyone. 20 per visit +10 for additional pets. Example: 1 dog + 3 visits = 60. 2 dogs + 3 visits = 90. Message me or text to book I'm an Uber Driver and a local musician so I occasionally play music around Brevard county but I have plenty of time for your pets! My girls are set in their daily routines. I come and go throughout the day. I have a semi fenced yard (the rest is a natural barrier) our girls stay in the garden and don't ever leave the premises. It's a garden/dog park in our backyard. In your home, I would just need very clear directions on what your expectation is and I can follow that guideline with no problem :) My time is spent with your pet playing, feeding, walking, or just being there for some human interaction. I can clean up anything while I'm there for you. Just think of me as your assistant. Let me know what I can do to make your pet/day a little easier.

About: Hi! I'm a reliable and compassionate pet sitter with a genuine love for animals of all kinds.

From walks, playtime, feeding, and medication (if needed) to cuddles and companionship, I'll treat your pets like they're my own. You can count on me to provide dependable, attentive care and give you peace of mind while you're away. I can't wait to meet you and your beloved pets! My schedule is very open so I can work with what is needed from you! Overnights, multiple days, or quick trips, I will respond quickly and allow time for you to decide what you need!! I am willing to learn how you would like me to care for your pets to ensure your animals and you, feel comfortable and provided for!

“Kristina was great! She started by offering to do a meet and greet, which was fantastic because our big dog can be a jumper and our puppy can be skittish. And then when she did our drop in for us, she was very communicative and provided a lot of updates. We highly recommend Kristina!”

About: Lifelong pet parent and experienced sitter — I’ve cared for dogs, cats, birds, and hamsters, and I know how important it is that pets receive not just food and safety, but attention, stimulation, and exercise while you’re away. I only work with families who value high-quality, reliable care. Most of my bookings come through referrals, and I always schedule a video call and home visit before confirming any booking. Happy to answer questions or discuss travel requests! Repeat clients receive priority for high-demand holidays. I am regularly open to last minute needs (cancellations from other sitters or emergencies) are also available for repeat clients. I provide in-home care in your residence and am available to travel as needed. I have my own car and am experienced in safely transporting pets. For new clients, I require an introductory meeting: the first can be virtual or in person to go over care needs, and the second must take place in your home so I can meet your pet in their environment. I work remotely with a flexible schedule, provide regular photo updates and status check-ins, and am happy to video call if needed. I’m Pet First Aid certified through the Red Cross, and currently serve clients in both Northern Virginia and Florida.
