Dog Sitting Lake Alfred

“Bradley was very patient with our dog and with me. I was very nervous because we never had to use a dog walker before. I sent him frequent text messages and he was always very understanding.”

“Taylor spent a lot of time trying to get our shy boy comfortable with her. He did finally come out for loves! She did an excellent job taking care of him! I would definitely recommend her and will be using her again!”

“Maryana has been a blessing to have for Pixee! I travel a lot for work and am so grateful to have found the perfect sitter for my baby girl 💗 Maryana even showed me some new techniques for giving medicine and she gave Pixee her wet food mixed with water like a soup, and she LOVES it. I never thought to do this before. Maryana has been so great, and she’s even taught me how to be a better cat mom! 10/10!!”

About: It was obvious from the time I was a little girl that I had a special connection with animals. I used to visit my grandmother as a child and pretend I was a dog trainer. We always had pets growing up. In 2006 after spending years in retail management I saw a sign on a car advertising pet sitting services. I knew that was my calling and soon started my own business. I have many clients and references. Pets are family and should be treated as such. I offer a home environment and lots of TLC.

About: I have loved pets since I was very young. I used to take care of my brother's dog and my friends. Whenever I could, I would visit my friends to be with their dogs. I am a teacher, so I have a lot of patience with hyper pets! I am currently a teacher, so I can work Mon-Fri after 4 and on the weekends any time. During the summer and holidays, I am more flexible. I make sure that if the dog or cat needs to go out to potty, I take them out. I also walk the dogs/cats and play with them as I keep them company. I try to make sure they are safe and happy! I am not allergic to any pets.

“Just a great experience. Krystal really loves what she does, and your pet will love her to.”

“Evan is very sweet and all our pets instantly loved her! She made me feel very comfortable with all of her personal experience with pets as well as how easily she gravitated toward all of our babies :)”

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was little, I even started washing dogs for my neighbors when I was 13. I have been around dogs since I was little and just got a cat. I love animals and meeting new types of dogs and cats! I work part time during the day but I have plenty of free time during the week and on weekends. I have very good time management and I am able to work around my schedule. I take in to account what the environment is when I care for pets such as if there is fenced yard or near a busy road.

“Vanessa did a great job with all our fur babies. She communicated with us well. The animals all loved her and she provided great pictures of them. Thank you 😊”

“Thank you Andrea for taking good care of my Rusty!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 10 years and I’m a proud dog mum to two large rescue fur babies, Vinnie and Boone. I’ve been volunteering at local dog shelters for years now so I have plenty of hands-on experience with dog walking, training, handling difference personalities and providing day to day care. I’m patient, loving and reliable, and I’ll treat your pup like one of my own - making every walk and visit a positive, enjoyable experience. 🐾💖 I currently work part time freelance from home, so I can be totally flexible! I’m available for home visits or dog walks Monday-Friday from early until around 4pm. I will always ensure your fur baby is as comfortable and happy as they can be! They will always have my full attention - their safety is my priority.

“I so very much enjoyed meeting Sunnie and entrusting her with our fur baby! She is thorough, kind, and gives very detailed updates with photos which is very helpful! I would recommend her to anyone!”

About: I have been a veterinary technician for 3+ years and counting. We have had pets in our home since I can remember. I have grown up with the love and loyalty that our pets provide and is something that I cherish. I started pet sitting for coworkers and clients for about 2 years now. I love helping fellow pet owners with caring for their pets in a time of need. My favorite thing is gaining trust from pet owners and ensuring that owners have peace of mind when it comes to being away from their pets. Having the medical background that I do also helps to ensure that your senior babies are being taken care of properly. Pets are family. I am currently a full time veterinary technician and work all days (8am-6pm) except Tuesdays, every other Saturdays (only from 8am- 12pm), and Sundays. With my full time schedule, I make sure that a pets needs come first. I will only pet sit for pets that I can guarantee my utmost care. I house sit a lot as well so this is helpful with my full time job. I tend to pet sit close to my job so if I have to leave in the middle of the day to take a dog out, I definitely can. I make sure to follow all written or printed instructions to a T. I also make sure to stay in close contact with owners (not too close to ruin your vacation) to ensure that they are still at peace of mind throughout their time away. I also love to send photos of their pets while they’re gone so they’re not missing out on too much :)

About: I've taken care of dogs of all sizes and breeds for over 10 years. I love giving pets a safe space to call home, even if it's temporary! I work from home so I am able to walk, play with, feed, and spend time with pets all throughout the day. Your pets will thank you for bringing them to me! I have an In-community dog park to allow the dogs to run and play. I enjoy play time with the pups and also make sure they follow any routine the owner leaves me, regardless of at my house or yours!

About: I haven’t lived a day in my life without owning a pet, and I would never want to change that. I love my furry children, sometimes I forget they’re not human. I work as a veterinary technician and am used to helping and caring for other peoples babies. Giving them the best experience possible during what can be a scary time for your pets. I work at a veterinary hospital 4 days a week as a technician. So in reality, pet care is my whole life. I take care of my babies at home, and I help with others at work. I’m blessed to say I have a fenced in backyard, so my dog is able to roam and play fetch right here at home. However, my family lives in Fort Myers, so Ava (my dog) gets to go on lots of roadtrips to see her grandparents. Walks around the neighborhood before bed is our nightly routine. My cats are a bit lazy, Bear is a cuddle bug and doesn’t care much for toys at her age. My younger kitty, Cam, loves to play. We have lots of toys and a cat tree that he claims as his castle.

“Celeste is great. Always helpful and loving toward Pancake. She is flexible and easy to work with. I highly recommend her.”

About: I am almost done with my CVA, which has given me hands on experience with animal care and a strong understanding of animal behavior, basic health needs, and how to recognize when a pet may be stressed, uncomfortable, or need extra attention. I’m very attentive to routines like feeding schedules, medications, potty breaks, exercise, and any specific care instructions you have for your pet. I also volunteered at a horse rescue for 6 years, which has helped me become even more patient and comfortable working with animals that all have different personalities and needs. Whether your pet is a playful puppy who needs consistency and extra energy or an older pet who needs a gentler approach, I’m confident in providing calm, dependable care and making sure they feel comfortable while you’re away! Pet care is already a big part of my everyday routine. I currently attend CVA school and as of right now im doing the externship part, I will be done early October! Outside of school, I’m available the rest of the day and can realistically spend most, if not all, of my time with your pet. I also care for my own animals every day, including my dogs, cat, and reptiles—a snake, bearded dragon, turtle, and leopard gecko—so feeding, walking, playtime, bathing, cleaning cages, and keeping their spaces clean are all part of my normal routine. My entire day is basically centered around animals between school and caring for my own pets, so pet sitting fits very naturally into my life. I care for pets with a lot of attention, and fun! I usually feed my pets at the same time every day and follow a schedule, but I keep it flexible so it works for each pet’s needs. I give dry food and simple medications like NexGard but, I also have experience handling special diets and other medications.     Playtime happens whenever pets seem bored or want to go outside. I have lots of toys, treats, and fun activities inside, and I enjoy running with dogs outside or taking them on car rides. I also do some basic training for fun, though I’m not a professional trainer.   I keep spaces clean and comfortable, cages and tanks are cleaned regularly, puppy pads are replaced, and everything is wiped down with disinfectant as needed. Pets have their own quiet areas, toys, and treats to feel calm and safe. I’m very observant of their behavior, so I can notice when something feels off.    Pets aren’t left alone for long, except when I’m at school for a few hours. I’m used to managing multiple pets at once by keeping a close eye on everyone and giving each animal their own space when needed. My home is very clean, and I constantly sweep, mop, and vacuum.    Overall, I make sure pets are happy, safe, and comfortable, and I treat them as part of my family giving lots of love, attention, and care every day.

“Great with our dog and super nice person! We appreciate you taking care of Kylo and making our wedding day less stressful.”

About: I love taking out pets out to the park to have fun and play, and as long as the owner permits it, I’ll bring my own dog along so they can play together. Additionally, I make sure the dog does their needs at least 3 times a day. One time in the morning after they eat breakfast, one in the middle of the day after they eat lunch, and one time in the night before they go to sleep. I work full time and I have 2 days off. On Saturdays and Sundays, I am available all day from 6 a.m. to 10 p.m. I am sometimes available on Fridays, so you’d have to advise me 3 days before to see if I can accept your booking. I leave them unleashed in the home and I don’t put them in cages because I believe they should roam free in the house. I play with them for a long time and at night I do it so they can get tired and sleep soundly. I wash their bowls after they eat and make sure their water is clean. I don’t cook for them for safety reasons, so you would have to bring their own food.
