Dog Sitting in Grant

About: I’ve had dogs all my life and consider them part of the family. From playful puppies to our beloved seniors, I love them all! I have experience administering medications, giving shots or drops, whatever your pets needs are I am here for them. I only accept one family’s pets at a time for the safety of your pet & ours. I am fortunate to telework most days and have lots of time for dog cuddles. Looking forward to caring for and spending a lot of time with your pup! And who doesn't love walkies, I live in a neighborhood with sidewalks that are perfect for evening walks. I have a securely fenced yard with locked gates and a dog door, so your pup can safely come and go while I keep an eye on them. My 11 month-old Boxer loves sunbathing, chasing squirrels, and relaxing under the oak trees to enjoy the fresh air. Now he's just looking for some buddies to share his time with.

“Raelin did a great job checking on our three cats. Her communication was excellent, and she fed, watered, cleaned litter, and played with them exactly as we requested. Would definitely hire again and recommend.”

“Heather was amazing we kept tabs on ring and also via messaging and she sent pictures every day and gave us an update and my two cats are not the easiest cats because they were ferals and one of them needed insulin shots twice a day as she has diabetes which is not an easy task for any sitter and they warmed up to her almost instantly so we are very pleased and would definitely use her again the next time we travel. Sweet lady, great sitter.”

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.

“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!!”

“Ruth is wonderful! She has stopped in for visits on many occasions and she always goes above and beyond. I highly recommend her as a trusted and dog-loving sitter!”

About: • Lifelong experience with dogs & cats • Comfortable with different temperaments • Good with routines, meds, and special instructions • Natural “pet-person” energy — animals warm up to me fast Hi! I’m a single parent with a lot of love to give — to people, pets, and the spaces I take care of. I’ve been around dogs and cats my entire life, so caring for animals feels natural and grounding for me. I’m calm, responsible, and easy to communicate with, and I treat every home like it’s my own. Being a mom has made me incredibly patient, observant, and safety-minded. I know routines matter, comfort matters, and a peaceful environment matters — especially for pets while their people are away. You can expect clear updates, a clean home, and genuine care every step of the way. What you can expect from me 😊 • Daily photo updates & quick responses • A clean home when you return • Respectful care of your space • Patience and gentleness with shy or anxious pets • Extra love and attention — I never rush through care • Someone who genuinely enjoys being there, not just “doing a job”

“Kyle did an amazing dog with both my dogs and cat! I can tell he is a huge animal lover and he spent quality time with all my pets and I could see how much they enjoyed his company. Although I have a pet cam I appreciate that he went above and beyond with sending me multiple videos of my pets. He has earned my trust that he will not just check in but also give my animals love while I am gone :)”

“ABOVE AND BEYOND! Alexander and Dorys are the most reliable, trustworthy, responsible, kind, loving and fun people that I have ever hired to care for my pets or my three children! I highly recommend hiring them if you want zero worries about your fur babies or your home. I could share two weeks' worth of daily examples of their great communication and execution of my list of tasks, but I will share just one: CHRISTMAS EVE. 5:30pm. Jones, our indoor/outdoor cat, wouldn't come home. The entire family was multiple states away, as were most of our friends and neighbors. Alexander and Dorys arrive a bit early to get Jones safely inside for the night, cleaned the box and food and water dishes, and were ready to play and cuddle for 30 minutes. (always sending me pics and updates.) They kept calling for him. Did the nightly routine: selected a good TV program for him, checked thermostat and garbage, and kept calling for him --- on Christmas Eve when they were on the way to their family gathering. They were communicating with me that Jones was not home, and I told them they should leave the cat door open and to go to dinner with their family. It was Christmas Eve! (And, Jones often doesn't come back home immediately when called.) I said the neighbor would keep an eye out. But, Alexander and Dorys didn't feel good about leaving Jones outside and didn't want me to worry. Instead of leaving him outside like I said to do, they tracked Jones' Airtag that I had shared previously. The lovely couple went throughout the neighborhood, calling him and shaking his treats until they found him two blocks away. Then, Jones didn't want to ride in the car. So, Dorys walked and carried Jones all the way back home. And, they still petted him and gave him his nightly catnip party! I will attach a pic of the walk home with Jones looking like he's clawing her arm, but she never said a single word about that. They were just happy to have found him and made sure my fur baby was safely home so I could have a worry-free Christmas Eve. I believe this single example of my experience with Alexander and Dorys is a real testament to the care they would give your pets. In addition, they also cared for my large 'high-maintainence' German Shepherd the week that he had leg surgery for new ACL, and Dorys sat on the couch beside him and read with him the entire night to ease his separation anxiety. Gave medication, treats, and took care of Jones' indoor/outdoor needs... Dr. Dog was the least anxious that I have ever seen him upon our return home. He was so happy and peaceful ... another testament to the connection they have with the animals. You can see it. They are animal people, truly kind, and the pets and I love them - you will, too! :) ( Most of all for me busy working and traveling with family, etc.... I like not worrying about anything, no matter what. They took care of everything that came up without me giving a second thought. Worth every penny for the peace of mind... everything taken care of... everyone is happy!)”

About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities, from large breeds like pit bulls and mastiffs to small dogs such as Shih Tzus. Growing up around different breeds has helped me learn how to read body language, recognize stress signals, and understand each animal’s unique needs. I also actively volunteer at an animal shelter, where I work with animals of all ages, temperaments, and backgrounds. This experience has given me valuable knowledge in handling shy, energetic, anxious, and senior pets, specifically dogs and cats. I’m patient, attentive, and confident in providing safe, loving care while making sure each pet feels comfortable and understood. I’m currently in my senior year of college and only have two classes on my schedule, which gives me plenty of free time and flexibility for pet care. I’m also a photographer, so you can expect lots of high-quality photo updates of your pets while you’re away. I’m based in the Saint Leo area during the school term, but I do go home to Brevard County every so often. Because of this, I ask for at least 2–3 weeks’ notice to make sure I’ll be in the area for your booking. I don’t have a fixed schedule, so clear communication is key and helps me provide the best care possible. For safety reasons, I do not have a fenced-in yard, so I prefer to provide pet sitting and walking services in your home. This allows your pets to stay in a familiar environment, which helps reduce stress and anxiety while maintaining their normal routine.

About: As a teacher and mom of two, responsibility and compassion are a big part of who I am. I’ve cared for my own pets and provided pet sitting and drop-in visits for years. I treat every animal like family and work hard to ensure they feel loved, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. I am home full time, so I have a very open schedule and plenty of time and availability to play and give plenty of attention. I have a large fenced yard and 2 dogs of my own to keep yours company! We have a crate available if ever needed. There is plenty of space and many toys!

“Reliable, great with our dog and chickens. Will be using again.”

Lindsay H.

“Cindy was so amazing with my dog and my cat! Absolutely above and beyond, My dog had an accident right before she was scheduled to sit for me and was extremely accommodating with giving him his medication. Will 100% consider again for future trips!”

About: I’ve taken care of cats, dogs, bunnies, ducks and more and I have some of my own. I love animals and am super flexible with my schedule! I currently just graduated high school and I’m starting insurance sales so a job like petsitting allows me to multitask what I need to while still being able to perform what needs to be performed while petsitting:) I do have other pets where I live so I’m not super comfortable having pets in my home depending on what the animal is.

“Madison was great!!! I had a last second flight and she was very flexible for my needs. I’m guessing she was great to my dog because he’s 21 years old and still bouncing around as usual.”

Stacy D.

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

“Sonia is a cat whisperer. My Luna is scared of everyone new and hides for days. By day 2, Luna let Sonia pet her. I will definitely have Sonia complete drop in visits again for my Luna.”

“Mary went above and beyond to make sure Charlie (and our fish) were well taken care of during our trip. We never had to worry and she routinely stayed over the thirty minute time slot and gave him long walks to let him get his time outside in. He’s a bigger dog with some reactivity with small animals and she handled him with no issues at all and extreme care. From the pictures we got we could tell that Charlie really loved her! I highly recommend Mary for dog sitting!!”

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.
