Dog Sitting in Lake Butler

“Alexis was a tremendous help with checking in on our kitties while we were out of town for two weeks. She was timely, shared updates and photos with me, and took great care to maintain the cats food, water, and litter during her check-ins. I would recommend Alexis to any cat parent!”

“Cheyanne was great at watching Stormy. Even though my cat wanted to be unsociable, Cheyanne spent time with her trying to make a connection and just letting her know that she wasn’t alone. Everything was clean and her food and water was fresh when I got home. Cheyanne went above and beyond on this one because my A/C was out downstairs and the kitty had the upstairs A/C all to herself. I can’t thank you enough, Cheyanne.”

About: I believe what sets me apart from other sitters is my extensive experience both as a dog trainer and in boarding. Over the years, I've worked with dogs of all ages and temperaments, from energetic puppies to senior dogs requiring more specialized care. My background in dog training allows me to work with your dog on behavioral issues or reinforce good habits while they're under my care. Additionally, my experience in boarding means I'm accustomed to managing multiple pets at once and ensuring each gets the attention, exercise, and care they need. Whether it’s administering medications, keeping them on a consistent schedule, or providing enrichment activities, I always ensure that pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. With a deep understanding of canine behavior and a compassionate approach, I can offer more than just basic pet-sitting—I can be an extension of your dog’s family and contribute to their well-being, whether they're staying with me for a day or an extended period. Pet care is an integral part of my daily routine, and my experience allows me to seamlessly incorporate it into my schedule. As a dog trainer, I’m accustomed to spending time with dogs throughout the day, whether it’s for training sessions, walks, or general care. I prioritize regular exercise and mental stimulation for pets, which fits well with my structured daily plan. In addition to my training work, I also have experience with boarding, which means I’m used to managing the care of multiple dogs at once. I make sure to set aside specific times each day for feeding, walks, and attention, while also balancing the other tasks of my day. Whether I’m working with puppies, senior dogs, or dogs in need of more specialized care, I structure my routine to ensure each pet gets the individual care and attention they deserve. This flexible yet organized routine allows me to manage pet care efficiently, while maintaining a balanced schedule. Safety, trust, and a comfortable environment are always my top priorities when caring for pets in a client’s home. I respect the pet’s routine and environment, ensuring that everything stays consistent with what they’re used to. I stick to their regular feeding, walking, and play schedules, while also incorporating any necessary training or enrichment activities. For pets that need additional care—like senior dogs or those with anxiety—I create a calm, structured environment to help them feel comfortable. I also make sure the home is safe and secure, checking for any potential hazards like open windows, toxic plants, or unsecured doors. Trust is key, and I keep an open line of communication with pet owners, offering updates and photos so they feel reassured their pets are in good hands. My goal is to provide a safe, loving, and familiar environment where pets feel cared for, relaxed, and happy.

“Lena was polite and very thorough when following instructions. She was able to help us deal with a mini emergency when our cat’s automatic feeder broke, and helped me troubleshoot it on the fly and was able to get it working again.”

About: Took care of cats & dogs since I was a kid including family’s, friends and even neighbors. Feeding, walking, nail clipping, brushing, patting, playing and loving. I just retired and have time for things I want and love to do. Pretty flexible on time and scheduling as my routine is mainly open for on the spot appointments. I have two cats and not planning to bring your pet to my house. I’m only open for care giving at your place and nearby.

About: I have extensive experience with taking care of dogs. It began when I was 14, dog walking for my neighbors. I’ve done overnight stays and drop in visits ever since. I’m currently working from home so I have time to manage your pups! They’ll enjoy their stay and your needs will be met. I can walk and manage them as needed. I have open space and a clean area. The environment is safe and easy to locate. The pups are in a fun and caring location.

“Sarah is so great with our dog, Moose. Moose is an 8 week old puppy and I needed someone to come and check on her halfway through the day so she could play and go outside. Sarah updates me with pictures and always lets me know how Moose is doing when she visits. It's so comforting to know that your pup is in good hands that you can trust! I will definitely continue to ask her to come help me whenever I need someone to watch Moose, and you should too!!!!”

“Chrys is always quick to respond to inquiries and is super great with our boy. She leaves great detailed reports cards which my husband and I love to read. Thanks so much for always taking great care of our boy.”

About: I have been pet sitting and dog walking for the past 10 years. I have taken care of all types of breeds and dogs of different sizes. I have also taken care of multiple animals at once and have even cared for animals (dogs and cats) with special needs requiring medications at specific hours throughout the day. I work from home and am happy to help take care of your furry friend before work, during lunch, or after work. I have more flexibility before and after work however and have full availability on the weekends. If caring for an animal in my home, I would have a separate designated area for them apart from my own animals. This is to ensure comfort for both animals

“Oreo loved the attention and time that Tathyana spent with her during her visits! Tathyana was very patient waiting for Oreo to approach her since Oreo is a shy little girl but once she felt the attention from Tathyana she was very relaxed with Tathyana! We have been looking for a person like Tathyana for several months to one year and we are so happy we found Tathyana through Rover! Tathyana will be our future person to call when we are heading out of town. Thank you Tathyana!”

About: I have over 20 years of hands on pet care experience and have grown up surrounded by animals my entire life. I have cared for and trained large breeds such as Saint Bernards and German Shepherds, as well as small breeds like my Toy Poodle, whom I have raised and trained since puppyhood. In addition to caring for my own dogs, I have regularly provided dog walking, daily care, and sitting services for friends and clients. I am patient, attentive, and deeply respectful of each dog’s individual needs, routines, and personality. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I work with a flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets the time, attention, and consistency they need. I am available on weekdays and weekends for drop in visits and walks, and I can adjust my availability based on each pet’s routine and needs. I always prioritize safety, calm energy, and clear routines. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, walking, and care. I pay close attention to body language and behavior, keep pets secure at all times, and make sure they feel comfortable, respected, and stress free in their own environment.

“Our pup was very well cared for while we were away. We will definitely be using Nicholas again in the future. He did and amazing job and I love that he washed the dogs bowls before he fed him each time.”

“My cat Gambino loves most people but it's not a guarantee. She instantly was attached to Hannah and I would argue that is something inherently kind and animal approved about her. Hannah did an amazing job with my cat, was responsive, kind, and generally respectful. Don't be a fool--hire her before she's unavailable :)”

“I booked Samanntha to look after my cat Sam for a week while I was on holiday. We emailed back and forth a few times to discuss what I was looking for and when she came to meet Sam he fell in love with her, even offering her his belly for rubs by the end of the meeting. Right then I knew she was the one!! Plus she and I had a wonderful conversation as well! She was great at communicating, cleaned his litter every day, played with him, and sent pics and videos each day, even doing a video chat one day! I would definitely recommend her services, as she is friendly, kind and clearly loves animals!! Thank you, Samanntha!!”

About: Hello neighbor! I would love to be your four pawed family member's newest bff. I have years of experience caring for dogs, and currently work with Fairytail Petcare services as a dog's plus one to their owner's weddings, and formerly on other pet care service apps. I have lots of experience with a variety of dogs; different breeds, sizes, and temperaments. My own dog struggles with strangers, so I understand how difficult it can be to find a dog walker that understands dog body language, and pet consent. Please feel free to message me with any questions you may have, I'm excited for the opportunity to care for your beloved family member. I have full availability, please send a request and I'll let you know if I'm available during that visit if I'm not already booked. Thanks! I treat your home how I would like my home to be treated. If you would like me to remove my shoes at the door, I'm happy to do so. Whatever makes you the most comfortable so your dog can receive the care they need.

About: I graduated from the University of Florida with a bachelor’s in Animal Sciences. I have been dog-sitting since I was 13. I started out with dogs in the neighborhood, and as I got older, my neighbors then shared about my great care and love for their pets to their friends. Now, I will give them a good walk, play with them, take them out on car rides and MOST IMPORTANTLY reward these good boys/ good girls with a good puppachino!! (If parents approve ofcourse) leaving them all ready for a good nap for the rest of the day. The following schedule is an estimate, I may be free at earlier or later times as needed! Mondays: 6am-10pm wednesdays: 6am-10pm fridays: 6am-10pm saturdays: 6am-10pm sundays: 6am-10pm If caring for pets in my home, I have a fenced yard, and plenty of room for your pets to run around, prioritizing their safety first.

“Kellie-Lynn was a fantastic pet sitter for drop-ins with our three cats. She was very communicative, responsive, and consistent. Everything was clean and well-maintained upon our return. It was incredibly reassuring to have her checking in on them while we were out of town. We would highly recommend her for your cat-sitting needs!”

About: I’ve grown up surrounded by animals my entire life! I used to have five cats and two dogs, and now I share my home with two dogs and a cat. I’ve cared for everything from cats to strong, energetic breeds and even senior dogs recovering from surgery. With shelter training, years of hands-on care, and a deep love for every animal I meet, I make sure each pet feels safe, understood, and loved, no matter their age or breed. My college schedule leaves lots of room for pet care! I only have class Mondays and Wednesdays from 10:30AM to 3PM, so I’m available most days and love spending my free time caring for animals! In someone else’s home, I always care for pets like they’re my own while treating your space with complete respect. I follow every rule closely, keep things tidy, and pay attention to your pet’s comfort level. I never rush or push, I know to let animals warm up on their own time.
