House Sitting in Homosassa Springs

“Cheryl was amazing! I have two dogs, a nine year old and a four month old. My older girl takes time getting used to people and I needed Cheryl all day on short notice. She came to the house for three days leading up to my day trip to just sit with her and get her familiar with Cheryl. Our puppy of course loved her instantly! Cheryl went above and beyond including even grabbing a package that was delivered and bringing our trash cans up to the garage from the street which was completely unexpected and above and beyond. We will be using Cheryl from here on out!”

“Taylor was fantastic with the girls. They were walked daily and I found out our smallest even gets along with cats. Nice to know. We will definitely use her again when the need arises.”

“Parker was great with our 3 little monsters. I had no worries with her giving them their medication and taking care of their needs. I highly recommend Parker!”

“Wonderful!! Can't say enough good stuff about Tina. She's a sweetheart and loved my Bernie and she loved Tina. They had a good day with no issues so I was able to travel to Jacksonville for Dr appointments. Tina arrived bright and early ask planned and was very patient about our long day away. Bernie, Mom & Dad love Tina E!”

“Jennifer was great! Both of my furkids enjoyed having her stay with them. I felt comfortable and confident that my dogs would be safe and well cared for! I will be contacting her, again, for another trip!”

About: Hi, I am Cindy! I’m a passionate pet lover with a lifetime of experience caring for dogs, cats, and other furry friends. Whether it’s a loyal best friend canine, a cuddly cat, or a skiddish one, or a senior pet in need of extra TLC, I provide personalized care tailored to their unique needs.

I understand how much pets mean to their families, which is why I prioritize communication, sending daily updates, and photos, so you always know your pet is in great hands. If you’re looking for a reliable, loving caregiver for your furry family member, I would love to meet you and your pet! Details I have my husband Chris on my account because awhile back we used to be able to take pets in our home. We have recently moved to Inverness and no longer have a fenced yard so we have discontinued that service for now. He does not accompany me for housesitting but he may stop by to bring me dinner once in awhile. Rest assured he has also been fully screened through Rover. We still have a demanding Lucky (our cat) at home that needs him. I know life can be unpredictable, which is why I am available 24/7 to care for your pets whenever you need me. Whether it’s an last minute trip, planned vaction, just an overnight stay, or an extended trip, I am here to provide flexible and reliable care tailored to your schedule. Your pet’s comfort and happiness are my top priorities, and I am always ready to adapt to their routine, ensuring they feel safe and loved no matter the time of day. Let’s work together to make sure your furry friend gets the care they deserve, whenever you need it! Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priority. I strive to provide a calm, secure, and loving environment. I’ll follow your pet’s routine to the letter, ensuring they feel safe and secure in their familiar surroundings. I am committed to treating your home with respect and keeping it just as you left it. I take trust seriously, providing regular updates, photos, and clear communication so you’ll always know your furry family member is well cared for. Whether it’s cuddles, playtime, or sticking to special instructions, I am here to give you peace of mind and your pet the love and care they deserve.

About: I’ve had and cared for all species of animals my whole life. From lizards, to chickens, to even water buffalo. I cannot imagine my life without animals I work from home so I can make my own schedule. I have my own critters to take care of so I’m always out and about At home I take care of my critters 2x a day. My horses I only have to feed once a day but I still drive by to get my eyes on them. I like to see my animals and make sure everyone is ok at least 2x a day

“Jessica did an outstanding job taking care of my dogs and house while we were away! She kept me posted with pictures and updates every few hours. I would highly recommend her! So happy to have found Jessica. She's exactly what we were hoping for in a trusted pet-sitter.”

About: I've rescued and cared for six dogs, three became mine. And I' ve dog-sat for friends & family for decades. Dogs love my fenced yard and the looong walks we take in the acres of trails and woods around my house! I'm formally educated and exprienced in animal behavior and comparative psychology. And as a professional conservation biologist, I've spent my career working to protect all animals and their habitats. Caring for critters is my heart & soul. I work from home (complete with a fenced yard) surrounded by many wooded acres for long walks. Dogs welcome day or night, long- or short-term. I'm always here with them. And your dog(s) can either enjoy the company of my two pups, or they can have me, the house, and the yard all to themselves (as my pups love to go stay with their grand-dad down the hill). Boarding dogs can either meet and play with my two pups or they can have me, the house, and the fenced yard to themselves, which ever you/they prefer. The same applies to day-care for dogs.

“Lisa was wonderful! She came over the day before to meet our puppy Maple. They became instant friends. She took Maple for a walk and made sure she was taken care of. I would absolutely recommend her for pet sitting.”

About: Additional fee of $1.5 Per mile if you’re more than 10 miles away from me I have to take Lyft to get to you. No pick up and drop off fee will be applied if you’re in walking distance. Hey there! I’m Yaritza if that’s to hard for you to pronounce you can just call me Rover, your friendly neighborhood pet sitter. I’ve been a dog enthusiast since I was 10 years old—basically a lifetime of wagging tails and slobbery kisses! I have a guide dog who thinks she’s the real boss around here, and she’s always ready to make new friends (just as long as they don’t steal her treats). With 14 years of experience wrangling cats and 12 years of dog adventures under my belt, I’m well-versed in the art of pet pampering. I love walking and playing with dogs, whether they’re zooming around like puppies or taking it easy like wise old sages. I’ve even house-sat for senior dogs, and let me tell you, they know how to live the good life! While I don’t drive, I’ve mastered the fine art of navigating with my guide dog and making sure every pet feels loved and cared for. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry companions I currently have a flexible schedule since I’m not working, so I have plenty of time to hang out with your pets and give them all the love they need. I'm happy to help out on holidays or weekends, too! I believe that good communication with pet owners is key, so I’m always here to chat and make sure we’re on the same page. I will wake up anywhere from 7 to 9 am and give everyone breakfast and medications if needed. Can get up earlier if your pet requires me too for their daily routine. If a walk is In their schedule, I will do that first before breakfast then depending on how tired they are they will wait for half an hour to an hour before having their breakfast. This is due to the heat so they’re walking as early as possible. If your pet is on a different schedule, of course I will follow that so please make sure you provide your pets schedule and medications otherwise they will use the schedule I have below *Water is provided throughout the day unless resting after walks. *The rest of the times that are not outlining the schedule or spent either playing your pet or cuddling with them whichever they prefer *7-8 am Early walk to avoid the heat *7-8 breakfast and bathroom break meds if need if they didn’t need a walk if they went on a walk depending on how tired they are I will have them wait for half an hour to an hour before breakfast *10am-12pm bathroom break *2-4pm bathroom break *5-6pm dinner meds if need *7-8pm short walk if not dark outside. *10pm bedtime Pet safety is my top priority, and I want you to feel completely at ease knowing your furry friends are in good hands. When dogs are in my care, they will always be leashed to ensure their safety and to help prevent any unexpected adventures! As someone with a disability, I take extra care in handling your pets, especially when it comes to taking them for walks. I believe that a smooth and safe experience for both the pet and the caregiver is essential. To further enhance their safety and identification, I will change their collars to Martindale collars with bells. These collars not only look great but also help keep track of your pets, especially if they decide to explore a bit too much! When your pets are in their own home, the only change will be the collars, so they can feel comfortable and secure in their familiar environment. I understand how important it is to keep to their routines, so I will be diligent about following their schedules and any specific needs you may have. Communication is key, so I’m always open to discussing any additional preferences you have to ensure your pets feel happy and safe while I care for them.

About: I've been taking care of pets ever since I was a little girl. Bringing home strays, attracting the feral cats - I practically lived at the zoo (my favorite place to hang out). I couldn't be happier when I'm surrounded by animals. I took care of my furbaby Mango (a Shih Tzu) for nearly 18 years, he was the love of my life and taught me unconditional love. I decided to start my mobile dog grooming business in his memory. He lives on furever in my heart. I specialize in geriatric and anxious furbabies, where they are the most comfortable (in their own home). I treat every pet as if they were my own. (Lots of Love, Hugs and Kisses). I'm currently available at any time, day or night, 7 days a week to meet your needs and that of your furbabies (no charge for unlimited hugs and kisses). I'm currently in the process of building my home, so would love to care for your furbabies in the comfort of their own homes where they feel more comfortable and secure.

About: I’ve always had dogs and grew up on a dairy farm. . I had 2 boxers then 2 Rottweilers , then went to small dogs. . We travel some in our travel trailer. I live in a safe community and ideal for walking dogs . I’ll treat your dog as if they ate mine. I recently stopped going to peoples homes. I promise you your dog will be taken very good care of in my home . Come and meet me , then decide ! Rover Please call me Peggy. I am a retired nurse and would love to watch your baby. My sweethearts all passed and I want to get my dog fixe by watching other fur babies. I have had boxers, Rotties, and 2 mixed Maltese’s from shelters. I have a huge fenced in back yard, and a safe neighborhood for walking. I live in a community behind crystal River airport. I usually will just watch 1 family dogs, sometimes 2. Thank you for considering me to love your dog. My husband is very involved also. Dogs are allowed on furniture/bed. Dogs will be taken on potty breaks every 2-3 hours . I love love senior dogs. Whatever they do at home, they will do here. For those who have a doggie door, we have one also.

About: I have been around pets of all kinds since I was 4 years old. I’ve taken care of kittens, adult cats, puppies, adult dogs of all breeds, pigs, chickens, rabbits, turtles, fish, and even crabs! 😂 My neighbors have always relied on me to watch their various types of pets while they are away. This is what led me here! I have moved and am looking for some new opportunities! I work almost 40 hours a week at my part-time job. I could have two days a week completely open. Most days I don’t go in until the afternoon and I am never off later than 9:30. I also typically have hour lunch breaks. If you decide I’m the right match for you, just know that while my schedule may be unpredictable, I always get my schedule a week and a half to two weeks ahead of time. My puppy honestly lives in the house as if she owns the place! She is absolutely the biggest sweetheart and veryyyy spoiled! I love to love on dogs, give them treats for tricks, getting physical exercise in and out of the house, and especially snuggling! (When I know the dog and the owners are okay with that of course). However, I also have no problem sticking to their everyday schedule (if they have one). I can feed, walk, and crate your pet as scheduled. Honestly I’m just such an animal lover, nothing involving the care of animals bothers me. I believe it is our duty to return the unconditional love and support our pets provide us with!
