About: I’ve grown up with pets all my life, ranging from house pets to farm animals. I’ve helped care for friends and family’s pets while they are away- feeding, bathing, walking, and playing with pets. I’m currently working on getting back into school so my schedule is open for pet care. I am available week days and weekends- open to your pet care needs. I am able to do drop in visits, all day care, or walking during the day. I’m willing to do visits and care until 8 PM on week days and weekends.
“Isabelle is wonderful. Arrangements were super easy and the dogs think she is great.”
“Kathleen was great! Super responsive about checking in and did a great job taking care of my boys!”
“Stephanie was great! She visited at the exact times suggested and asked if f she needed to go a little early or late ahead of time to make sure we were ok with it. She provided photos every visit! I would recommend her and will definitely use her again if needed.”
About: I have been trained as a vet technician and animal care by the military. I have taken care of animals since childhood, and I believe all animals are part of the family I currently working on my own homestead, and I maintain our family animals and needs on a daily basis. Some may say that they are part of my daily chores, but I do not consider my babies as choirs. I have a fenced in yard. The yard is segmented for separation and safety. I have loving dogs, cats, goats, and chickens. They are able to be in the same areas together with no issues, but my farm is segmented for privacy amongst the animals as well. I feel everyone has their way of loving their babies, and the baby deserves consistency in their normal routines. I find this is most important when missing their human.
About: I have cared for a pet for virtually every year of my life that I can remember. From puppies and kittens to the most elder of the two, I cherish all stages of their development and love the joy that each unique individual personality of each pet brings to our world. I'm currently working part time, and on the days that I do work, I work remotely, so I will have plenty of time to dedicate to the care of your pet. I have a beautiful large yard at the end of a cul-de-sac that is full of trees. We live in a very nice neighborhood that is perfect for walking dogs also. We have two indoor cats that get along beautifully and are adaptable to other animals. We have a very clean home and are non-smokers.
About: I have been employed at an animal hospitals for 25 years and have pet sat for cats, dogs, rabbits, horses and birds over the years. I am trustworthy and reliable I am currently working full-time at an animal hospital 9 AM to 6 PM Monday through Friday. I can come in the morning midday at lunchtime or after work if you’re in the area, I can also stay overnight at your home if you prefer. I do have a home with 6 acres however I do not have a fenced yard so I prefer to care for pets in your home. They are often less stress when they are at home in their own environment and seem much happier at their own home.
About: Hello I’m Jasmine and I genuinely care about all pets I am a pet owner I’m available to do home visits walking, personal grooming, and caring for most needs of your Fur Babies my home is open and available for drop off’s doing the morning and evenings. It’s all about having a healthy and happy pet as a pet owner I cherish my animals like they’re my children I also enjoy taking them for long pet -pamper spa days with me,also walks on the beach, engaging fun activities at the park. All pets have to understand the gentleness of having children around! I’ve had my dog since she was six weeks old she engages with other animals very well thanks for the opportunity with trusting me with your for babies
“Thank you!”
About: To me, animals are the most innocent companions we have. They deserve to feel safe, understood, and loved. While I’m not a vet, I bring a deep sense of empathy and a lifelong passion for animals to every interaction. Whether it’s giving meds to a senior dog, helping a disabled pet navigate their day, or handling exotic pets with confidence, I bring calm energy and a strong sense of responsibility to every pet I care for. I work 6:30am - 3pm in Lake City, Monday-Friday. So I can do one Lake City trip and one trip in Jasper or Live Oak Monday - Friday. I am free more on the weekends so I can do at least two drop ins on the weekends if needed. I do not care for pets in my own home. But I am trustworthy and believe that an animal should be left in the environment that they are most familiar with. Removing them from their environment to a strangers will cause too much stress so I am not an advocate of bringing animals to my house. As far as my routine, once I get a new client, I will want to meet the new client and their fur child before they leave for their designated trip. It’s SO IMPORTANT they see me interact with their owner and know that I’m not a threat especially in their own environment. This creates trust and builds a bond between myself and the animal. (Cats can be territorial too! I’ve seen them attack intruders. Don’t underestimate them.) Keeping to routine and treats go a long way are my two general rule of thumb. Animals aren’t human and they don’t like a lot of change so continuing the same routine as their owner is important as fat meal times or cleaning out litter boxes. Not to mention giving them treats after every visit lets them be excited for you to come AND leave.
“Best thing I ever done for my kitties, It was great to go on vacation and not worry about my babies. Brittany was wonderful, sent me a picture everyday, that was very nice. Thank you very much.”
About: My entire life has always revolved around my pets and sharing the love with other animals always brings me joy. I have raised my own animals and cared for many strays. I am currently between jobs so I have a open schedule and I am very flexible. I live in High Springs and I am willing to commute up to an hour away! The pets I care for always will get plenty of play time during visits. All pets will be thoroughly watched over and made sure are safe and happy! I am also happy staying a bit longer free of charge just to hangout and play with furry friends a little longer :)
About: I have done 30 hours of volunteer service working with the animals at Lake City Humane Society. I’ve taken care of various animals over the years, and own a sweet Chihuahua, Lab, and cat! I am a full-time student and mother! I stay at home with my baby while going to college to become a teacher. Pet care can fit into my weekly routine in the afternoons, evenings, week days and weekends, and even holidays! I am located in Lake City, FL and I regularly visit Branford, Fl as well. I care for pets very attentively, seriously, and lovingly. I make sure each pet gets the correct proper care needed. Whether that is exercise, specific feeding, playing, cleaning, and nurturing.
About: Your pet's comfort and happiness are my top priority! While you're away I will ensure that they feel safe and loved. I am able to tend to the needs of dogs of all ages and breeds. I will tailor your dog's experience with me perfectly to their own specific needs and quirks. I work early in the morning until 3 at the latest on weekdays. Monday - Saturday I will be available from 4 p.m. - 8 p.m. and on Sundays I will have 6 a.m. - 10 p.m. availability. Please let me know of any special needs/rules you have for your pet, and I will happily accommodate them! I would also like to know any of their typical behaviors and habits beforehand.
About: I’m obsessed with animals, and if you’ll let me, I’ll be obsessed with yours as well! I’ve 3 years of professional experience with animals, currently working at an animal hospital, but I’ve had cared for personal animals all my life. I offer top-notch pet sitting and walking services, ensuring your furry friends are in expert hands. Whether it's a quick walk or extended care, your pets will be treated like family!

About: Growing up on a homestead, I’ve got experience with animals of all shapes and sizes. I’ve been pet and housesitting for nearly 10 years, and I get great enjoyment out of it. I suffer from a hidden chronic illness called CVS, that flares up suddenly and severely and may be cause for cancellations. Check out Peace of Mind with Leah on Facebook I work as a full time dog walker. My days are booked from 7am-4pm on weekdays and 7:30-10:30am, 3:30-6:30pm. It is imperative to my health: to walk and spend time outside. I get great satisfaction from ensuring animals are comfortable and happy. Coming to your home allows your pets to stay in their comfort zone, no unnecessary anxiety from traveling or boarding. Daily visits and walks are sometimes enough, although I like to be introduced to them in person with you to keep them most comfortable. I have housekeeping experience, and may offer that too while I’m there for a tip!
