Pet Boarding Lake Butler

About: I grew up surrounded by dogs, and caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life. I have experience with dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to senior companions, and with different breeds and sizes. I'm especially familiar and comfortable with larger dogs. Over the years, I've cared for multiple dogs at once, looked after households with both dogs and cats, and provided overnight and extended house sitting, including staying in someone's home for an entire week. I also have experience caring for cats overnight. What makes pet sitting especially meaningful to me is the opportunity to build a genuine connection with each animal. I love going for walks, spending time outdoors, playing, and simply keeping pets company. I'm not looking to take on as many bookings as possible. I'd rather get to know a smaller number of pets and families, understand their individual personalities and routines, and become someone they know and trust. I work from home and currently have no pets, so I am looking for some opportunities to care for pets. My schedule is quite flexible working wise. I travel every now and than, but overall my schedule is pretty adjustable. I love walking and being outdoors, so regular dog walks fit naturally into my lifestyle. My goal is to establish lasting relationships with a few local families and become a familiar, reliable part of their pets' routines. For regular walks and drop in visits, I'm primarily focusing on Royal Cypress Preserve and surrounding communities, including Golden Oak, ideally within about three miles of home. I'm happy to consider a wider area for overnight house sitting. I love helping pets feel happy, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. For dog walks and drop in visits, I am happy to follow each pet's familiar routine, whether that means an enjoyable walk, playtime, feeding, fresh water, a potty break, or simply some companionship and affection. I take the time to get to know each animal's personality, preferences, and individual needs. I'm comfortable with dogs of different sizes and ages. Safety and trust are very important to me. I pay attention to secure leashes and gates, Florida's heat, and each pet's comfort. I'm also happy to share photos and updates after each visit. I especially enjoy the idea of becoming a familiar, trusted face for pets and their families in my neighborhood.

“Cristal was very good with my dog dex. I would recommend her a day! She sent pictures and videos daily to help with my anxiety. This was the first time I ever used a dog sitter and I will be using her in the future.”

“We will definitely be using Anastasiia again! She took excellent care of our two beloved cats, sending us almost daily pictures of the two playing and lounging happily. When one of our cats finally wore out his favorite toy (which was already well loved and nearing its end) she went out of her way to get him a new toy. The cats were happy, safe and well loved. Easy to get to the apartment building for drop off. All our cat items were returned clean and in great condition. Have peace of mind with Anastasiia. She is fantastic.”

“Tetiana is amazing. Not only was she an amazing cat sitter for my cat Bean, she also was very hospitable and offered me a delicious breakfast treat when I noted how good it smelled! Tetiana also sent pics of our cat sleeping and relaxing and various updates for the three days she took care of him. My mom was the person who picked up our cat, and she also noted how incredibly nice Tetiana is. If you need a caring person who is great with animals to take care of your pet in South Florida Tetiana should be your go to. I had to relocate and Tetiana reminded me of all the good people in South Florida I’d be leaving behind. I really can’t say enough about how great she is and how much we appreciate her taking care of our cat Bean!”

About: I’m a pet mom and I love dogs. I always look after a friend's pets when she travels, and she said to me, "You take care of them with so much love and affection—why don't you offer your services to other families?" I don't have a big house, but I take the little ones for walks in the green area 3 times a day, morning, afternoon and evening. I currently work from home and spend most of my time at home, so I have plenty of flexibility to care for your dog. I’m available during the day for walks, playtime, feeding, potty breaks, and lots of attention. I can also accommodate overnight and weekend stays depending on your dog’s needs and my availability. Your dog will be cared for in a safe, clean, comfortable, and loving home. I’m a dog lover and have experience caring for my own dog, so I understand how important it is to treat every pet with patience, attention, and affection. I will follow your instructions regarding feeding, medication, routines, and any special needs. I will also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is happy and well cared for.

“María was an absolute joy to work with! He have never had any watch or fur baby before, besides family, because our dog can be very anxious/ nervous around strangers. María made our dog feel extremely comfortable and took excellent care of her. She also made me feel extremely comfortable with leaving her for a 10 days and was great at communicating throughout! I would absolutely recommend María, she is very kind and caring towards dogs and people!”

“I am so lucky to have found Marti. While I was away for a few days at Disney World, she provided the best boarding experience for my furbaby that I could ever dream of. My dog had individualized care, plenty of walks and social time with the neighborhood (he happens to also be a Very Good Boy). Her house was clean, quiet, inviting, safe, and has a nice backyard. Marti is super friendly, welcoming, experienced with dogs, trustworthy and very responsible. I would definitely hire Marti again!!!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities since I was young. Friends, family, and neighbors trust me to feed, walk, and spend quality time with their pets. I’m patient, attentive, and genuinely love animals. I make sure every pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I also pay close attention to routines, behavior, and any special needs to keep them happy and stress-free. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. I’m available on weekdays and weekends for check-ins, feeding, and playtime. I make sure to follow each pet’s routine and provide consistent care so they feel comfortable and relaxed. I provide a safe, calm, and clean environment where pets can feel comfortable and cared for. I always follow the owner’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, routines, and any special needs. I pay attention to behavior and make sure pets are secure at all times. My goal is to make them feel safe, loved, and stress-free while you’re away.

About: I am a huge animal lover with years of experience in both dog and cat care. I have taken care of pets with a variety of needs. I have a very flexible schedule and am capable of both short term and long term pet sitting. My own dogs in the past have required specialized care, so I am familiar with different medical needs and medications. I work part time and do college classes online. I mostly work weekends and some Monday and Friday evenings starting at 3pm. I am almost always available Tuesday through Thursday and Monday and Friday mornings. I have a fenced in backyard and a two story home. I have one very friendly, older golden doodle who loves company. I care for every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I follow each pet’s regular routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, potty breaks, medication (if needed), and any special instructions you provide. In your home, I respect your space, keep everything clean and tidy, and do my best to maintain your pet’s normal routine to reduce stress. I provide plenty of attention, affection, exercise, and enrichment based on your pet’s personality and energy level.

“Hannah watched my dog, Cosmo, while I was away on vacation for 5 days and 4 nights after a meet and greet a few days prior. Hannah is very easy to communicate with. I received pictures within 2 hours of dropping Cosmo off. He was all smiles and snuggles. I received regular updates after that and got all good reports. Cosmo has his quirks so I was excited to hear that Hannah was bringing out the best in him. Thank you Hannah for taking such great care of Cosmo!”

About: I have lifelong experience with dogs. I've had dogs all my life, so I understand their needs at every stage, from energetic puppies to senior dogs who may require extra patience and care. As a nurse I’m comfortable administering medications and following any special care instructions to keep your pet healthy and happy. Since I work from home, your dog will receive plenty of attention, companionship, and supervision throughout the day, giving you peace of mind while you're away. I provide a safe, comfortable, and welcoming environment where pets are treated like family. My home features a large fenced backyard for play and exercise, along with two friendly, well socialized dogs who enjoy the company of other pets. This is a crate free home to allow dogs to relax and feel at home; however, I am happy to crate your dog if requested or if it is part of their normal routine. I follow each pet's regular feeding schedule, exercise routine, and any special care instructions to help them feel comfortable and maintain consistency while you're away.

“Second time watching our pup and we love her! Get lots of updates and we see our dog isn't just cared for, but they actually enjoy having her around. Highly recommend”

“Jay was a terrific sitter. She sent me daily pictures and updates on my dog's behavior/mood. she was easy to contact and responded to messages really quickly. My dog seemed to be in good spirits after leaving, which to me is always a good sign that he enjoyed his stay.”
