About: I have experience caring for puppies, adult dogs, and senior dogs, and I am also open to providing care for cats. I am happy to assist with any needs your pet may have. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important pets are to their families, and I will treat your pets with the same care, attention, and love that I give my own. I am currently a full time student working in public school. I leave around 7am and I get off at 2:00/2:30pm Monday-Friday. I am available to walk or do drop ins after 2:30pm. If I am house sitting/dropping in I may have to arrive/leave sooner depending on how far you are from me. On the weekends I work from 6:50am-11:30am and 1pm-5pm. I have three dogs at home so if you are looking to board you will need to bring your dog to my residence to make sure they can be around my dogs. Your dog has to be able to stay in a crate for 4-6 hours while I’m a work. My grandparents will give them a bathroom break in the afternoon. I will follow your schedule, including feeding times, walks, and any required medications. I am committed to giving your pets attentive care and plenty of affection.

“I highly recommend Isabelle for any pet care needs. She did an excellent job taking care of my dog throughout the entire weekend, including feeding, playing, and managing his outdoor needs. I am very pleased with her service and would recommend her to anyone looking for reliable care for their pets.”

“Michelle was great and went above and beyond our expectations. Yoda was well taken care of and we were totally comfortable with having her at our home. We recommend her for all of your pet care needs.”

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.

“Monica is an excellent cat sitter who goes above and beyond. She medicated Joel with ease and my shy Miss Kitty came out for some loving. I highly recommend Monica!”

“Samantha did an amazing job at watching Poppy!! A situation came up where I needed her to walk my dog two more times and she was able to coordinate that so easily with me. She was great at sending pics and you can genuinely tell she loves animals. Thanks so much for making my time away from Poppy super easy and stress free, Samantha!”

About: I’ve taken care of my friends and family’s pets since I was in high school. I’m very responsible and am a calm presence around dogs. I pay attention to their energy and am intuitive about their needs. I have house sat and cared for dogs, cats, horses, cows, and chickens. I love animals and will make sure your furry friend is cared for and loved. I’m known for being responsible so that pet parents can rest easy knowing their pets are in good hands when they’re with me. I work from home full time, so if you need someone to keep your pet company during the day, let me know! I live in a house with a fenced in yard and a screened in pool that has an additional child protection gate if needed. Here’s what some of my clients have said about my work with pets: “Kenzi was made to care for animals! She is incredibly patient and gentle. Very aware of things happening around her. My dogs love when Kenzi comes around and I never have to worry, I know that they will be cared for as if I were there with them. She is a fabulous find!” -Eliza “Kenzi has been a house sitter for me for several times over the last few years. She has been responsible for taking care of my 2 horses, 2 dogs, and 1 cat. When I come home it’s like I just left, everyone is happy and healthy! She will make a great caregiver for anyone’s fur babies, whether well refined or rough around the edges like mine!” -Roberta I currently work from home and have a relatively flexible schedule, so I’d be happy to help with your pet needs. Detailed schedule tbd, but when I tell someone I’m going to be there, I follow through. I’m very responsible and respect the time of others, so I honor my commitments and make sure to follow through if I agree to something. In my home, I’m a remote worker, so I have the time and flexibility to make sure your pet is well taken care of. If your pet joins us, they will well taken care of in an air conditioned and quiet home in a safe neighborhood. I have a fenced in yard too so I can take them out to play and take potty breaks throughout the day. If your pet needs more attention and cuddles, I’m able to give them that attention during my work day so they feel safe and loved. In your house, I am respectful of your space and your pet’s routine. I make sure to leave a place as clean as when I arrived, and I will be a calm and reassuring presence for your pet so they feel safe and loved while you’re away. You can rest assured knowing your pet is in good hands.

About: I've been sharing my life with and caring for fur babies since I was 14. The incredible bond you share with your furry friend is truly one of the most cherished experiences you'll ever have. I would be delighted to care for your fur baby with the same love, care, and compassion I would want for my own. Now that I work from home, I have plenty of time and flexibility. I can take care of my furry friend in the morning, afternoon, or evening. It’s truly wonderful to have this kind of flexibility and the opportunity to care for a loved one. I have a spacious area that is family-oriented and pet-friendly. I'm happy to walk and play with your pets, giving them the attention they need while you're away.

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: You could probably say I enjoy being around dogs more than most people. I consider dogs angels. I love to spoil them. My two girls are very spoiled. I have always had a dog. At one time I had 4 large dogs. I know what distress looks like and I know animal safeguarding. My husband and I have a deep bond with animals. We will care for your dog just as if they were ours. I’m a retired teacher and I love and truly understand dogs. I will love your pet as if he/she were my own. I’ve done all kinds of medications including kidney care involving injections and oral medicine. I have a fenced in yard and a safe place to walk dogs. I have two female Shitzus and they are very very friendly. I have had puppies, teenage dogs, and seniors. We only care for one families’ dog(s) at a time so they receive the care they deserve. We will send lots of pictures of your dog during our time with us and we will always follow your care instructions.

“Josh was an absolutely fantastic cat sitter for my cat, Milo. While I was away, Milo was clearly well cared for: he was fed, had plenty of fresh water, and his litter box was clean. What meant the most to me was coming home to a calm, happy cat. Milo can sometimes get anxious when I’m gone, but this time he seemed completely at ease, which really speaks to the level of care and attention Josh provided. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing Milo was in such good hands. I would highly recommend Josh to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive, and genuinely caring pet sitter!”

About: I have been dealing with dogs my whole life. I've babysat my neighbors dogs and friends dogs. I always keep in contact with the owner as much as possible. I communicate lot during the time away from your pets because I know it can be scary at times. But I am a trust worthy person. I just do what the instructions say to do with your pet. All of the animals always warm up to me after awhile. I have a dog of my own so I know how it's hard to trust a person to come into your home and take care of your animal. I love dogs. I am very responsible and nice person I get along with any dog I would say. Everyday any time I have free my schedule is changed a lot so we walk at different times other then that her food schedule is the same. Making sure they get the proper care by feeding them walking them everyday and of course playing time! And socializing them at dog parks too.

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.

About: I am a dog lover at my heart. I have professionally watched dogs for a couple years now and even have experience at a vet clinic as a vet tech. I have always had dogs since I could remember and there is truthfully nothing better. My boyfriend and I both work full time jobs but pet will always be cared for. We work morning jobs so we will be able to spend the evening with your pups. I have a wiener dog of my own and she is treated with respect and love. She loves other dogs and would love to help watch yours. I also just had a foster failure of a beagle mix who loves people and animals.

“Aramie was great! She has been fantastic to work with in getting our dogs adjusted to a new sitter. Highly recommend her.”

About: I have had anywhere from 2-4 animals in my house for the entirety of my life, including both dogs and cats. Over the years, I have contributed to the simple tasks of feeding them, letting them outside, taking them on walks, taking them to the vet, and cuddling with them. However, I have also had experience caring for 2 elderly dogs and 2 dogs that struggle with seizures. This required more patience and gentleness, learning how to medicate, and sometimes even emergency vet trips. I am currently enrolled at the University of Central Florida, but I am taking mostly online classes. Most weeks, I am able to be home in Sebastian from Wednesday evenings to Sunday nights. During that time, I should be able to drop in once or twice a day and care for your pets. I do not take pets to my home, but I will happily "drop in" to your house, feed your animals, let them outside (dogs), medicate them, and give them pets/cuddles if necessary.

About: Entrusting someone with your pet requires confidence, and I provide a level of care that goes beyond traditional pet sitting. As a Certified Veterinary Technician, I offer a unique combination of professional medical knowledge and personalized, attentive care designed to meet each pet’s individual needs. From routine companionship to specialized support for senior pets, those with medical conditions, or pets requiring medication, I am equipped to provide exceptional care with precision and compassion. My background in veterinary medicine allows me to recognize subtle changes in behavior or health, ensuring your pet’s well-being is always the highest priority. I believe premium care means more than meeting basic needs—it means creating a calm, enriching, and secure experience where pets feel comfortable and valued. My goal is to provide discerning pet owners with complete peace of mind, knowing their beloved companions are receiving expert care in capable hands. For clients seeking professionalism, reliability, and a truly elevated standard of pet care, I am committed to delivering service you and your pet can trust. My schedule allows me to provide reliable, attentive care throughout the week. I work only one Saturday each month for approximately four hours, which gives me a highly flexible availability for pet sitting and boarding. I am home every evening, ensuring pets receive consistent companionship, routine, and care. As I work within a veterinary clinic setting, I also have the unique ability—if absolutely necessary—to bring a pet with me during work hours. In that environment, they would be closely supervised and surrounded by caring professionals, receiving plenty of attention throughout the day. This flexibility allows me to prioritize each pet’s comfort, safety, and well-being while accommodating their individual needs. I provide attentive, personalized care in a calm and welcoming environment. At this time, I do not have pets of my own, which allows me to offer visiting pets a comfortable space without concerns about compatibility with resident animals. I live in an apartment community with ample opportunities for walks, fresh air, and enrichment. There is also an on-site dog park, providing additional space for exercise and play. Beyond meeting daily care needs, I genuinely enjoy spending quality time with pets—whether that means engaging in play, offering companionship, or simply sharing quiet moments and snuggles. My goal is to ensure every pet feels safe, loved, and at ease while in my care.

About: Here’s a polished version of your message that keeps your voice but makes it flow more smoothly and professionally: Hello! My name is Kathleen, and I am Deaf. I have a deep love for dogs and many years of experience caring for them. I’ve cared for several of my own dogs, and my most recent dog, Nika, was with me until she passed away in January 2025. She was very special to me. I truly enjoy spending time with dogs—playing with them, feeding them, taking them on walks or outside for potty breaks, and making sure they feel safe and happy. I respect each dog’s personality and give them the space they need to feel comfortable and relaxed in my home. If you’re looking for someone gentle, patient, and experienced to care for your dog, I would love to help!If you want, dogs are welcome to rest with me, even on my bed if it helps them feel more at home. if your dog needs feeding, potty breaks, or playtime during the day. Just let me know your dog’s schedule, and I’ll follow it closely. I’m calm, gentle, and patient. I give dogs the space to be independent, but I’m always nearby when they need attention or love. House sitting — I would love to watch your pet, but while I work overnight Sunday through Thursday, my boyfriend is willing and happy to help watch your pet during those hours. I always take dogs out on a leash for potty breaks. I stay outside with them until they poop and pee. Sometimes we sit on the patio or relax on the grass for a few minutes. I also watch closely in case a dog has any allergies or needs special care outside. I give dogs the freedom to be themselves and stay comfortable while keeping them safe and cared for.
