Pet Sitting in Lake City

About: 🐾 About Me Hi there! I’m Christina — lifelong animal lover, proud cat enthusiast, and pet parent to three cats and one sweet senior dog. I’ve cared for animals of all kinds (dogs, cats, bunnies, and even hamsters!) and can’t imagine life without furry companions. Whether your pet needs a walk, a check-in, or some company while you’re away, I’ll make sure they get the same love and attention I give my own crew. I’m especially good with anxious pets and have plenty of experience helping them feel comfortable and safe. I’m also comfortable giving oral medications and following any special routines your pet might need. My goal is to make your time away as stress-free as possible — for both you and your pet! 🐕 What to Expect You can count on me for clear communication, reliability, and lots of cuddles (if your pet’s into that!). Every animal has their own personality, and I love getting to know what makes each one unique. I am available most weekends all day and weekdays before 8:00am and after 3:00pm. I am currently unavailable from 8:00am -3:00pm Monday - Friday. My schedule will be updated to reflect any unavailable days. I always make sure pets are safe, happy, and secure — whether that means double-checking harnesses, keeping walks calm and controlled, or giving anxious pets space when they need it.

“Kathleen was an excellent dog sitter. She provided wonderful care for my Golden Retriever SAYLOR. She sent pictures often and left notes and sent detailed messages to me during my absence. I would highly recommend her services for your furry friend. I plan on using Kathleen in the future!!”

“Cheyanne has been a lifesaver! She is dependable and trustworthy. She gives my cat his seizure medicine when we are not home & he is so comfortable with her. I am so grateful we found her. Thank you, Cheyanne!!!”

“She is awesome. Jasper was well taken care of. I will use her again. Elizabeth is a kind, happy young lady who truly loves animals. It was a pleasure to meet her. Reliable / Trustworthy / Fair. I sis not have to worry about Jasper while I was away from home.”

About: I have grown up living with dogs, dog/cat sitting, as well as living on multiple farms. That ranged from small pomeranian pups, to great pyrenees (as well as pits/bullies) . I have distributed medication as well as followed a variety of dietary guidelines for many animals. I am an extremely loving person, I would be happy to show references upon requests. I am perfect for those who work weekends, as well as 2nd and 3rd shift. I have a pretty flexible schedule around my own, and I am very willing to accommodate to animals needs. I prioritize my animals outside time, whether that is allowing them to sunbathe, go on walks, or to sniff around. Although, that means they are always on a leash, or an enclosed area when doing so.

“Monica is wonderful. She is excellent with my 2 dogs. She has been prompt and responsive to all questions. My dogs always look so happy when I get home to them after she has spent a visit with them. I will continue to request service with her as much as I need her and I’d recommend her 100%”

About: Pet owners trust me because I’m dependable, detail-oriented, and genuinely passionate about animals. I’ve cared for pets of my own, friends, family, and previous clients for years — managing feedings, medications, and long walks in all kinds of weather. You can count on me to treat your pets with care, keep you updated, and make sure they’re comfortable while you’re away. I currently am in graduate school (dental) M-F until noon, leaving me a large amount of time each day to spend with my fur baby friends! In my home or my own, my main goal is to make your pet, and you most comfortable. Whether that mean a keeping a certain routine the same, or allowing your pet to make itself at home in my home, I want you both to be at ease that they are taken care of and loved.

“Josie was awesome! She took great care of my “Suki” kitty and really pampered her. She sent me lots of pictures and gave me a daily report which was very comforting. Highly recommended!”

About: The Venn diagram of “my seasonal work lifestyle leaves me with time in the winter” “having ‘animal lover’ as a personality trait” and “folks needing pet care around the holidays” is a circle. Hello folks, I’m Lauren - park ranger and pet lover! If you’re looking for someone to care for your pet who has the love for animals of Eliza Thornberry and also the responsibility, attention to detail and reliability of Leslie Knope- look no further! My level of responsibility/reliability in congruence with my love of & experience with pets makes me a great option for pet sitter, but my schedule makes me stand out. As of right now I have almost totally free availability for the holiday season (and beyond a bit). Feed, brush, walk, fetch, deep cleaning pet stuff (food or water bowl, etc) whatever you & they need- I’m your person!! Please reach out if you think I would be a good fit for your furry friend, I look forward to talking with you (even more excited about meeting your pet) I DONT TOTALLY UNDERSTAND HOW TO SET ROVER PRICING/RATES. PLEASE REACH OUT AND WE CAN FIGURE OUT PRICE FOR SERVICES NEEDED!!!! Currently wide open. I work 8 months a year as a park ranger (spring-winter) and am fully committing to pet sitting this winter. I will have a few days I need for appointments but otherwise wide open for overnights, pop ins etc. (NOT available to have pets come to my home as a renter) I have been a pet sitter and baby sitter for about 20 years now. In a professional role, I manage complex and dynamic operations and oversee a staff of up to 15. I have a high standard of operation for myself in all I do- this includes pet care. I am very thorough with understanding and performing duties. Clear communication is very important to me so you can expect me to reach out with any questions or updates on your furry friend. I am incredibly respectful going into anyone else’s home and keep to myself and respect your space.

About: I bring a level of responsibility and trust that sets me apart. I’ve cared for pets of all kinds — from cuddly cats to quirky dogs — in homes across the U.S. I’m calm, attentive, and always treat pets like they’re my own. I'm also neat, reliable, and communicative, so you'll always know your pets and home are in good hands. What sets me apart? 👉 Life experience 👉 Flexibility to travel 👉 A deep love for animals (and the quiet joy of daily routines) Whether it’s meds, snuggles, or just holding down the fort — I’ve got it covered. I’m a retired real estate agent turned full-time traveler, so my schedule is wide open — no 9–5, no rush. Pet care is a natural fit for my lifestyle. I enjoy quiet mornings, long walks (with or without a leash in hand), and cozy evenings in. Because I work remotely and love slow travel, I’m able to give pets my full attention. I’m home a lot, I don’t party, and I’m happy sticking to your pet’s routine — whether that’s sunrise feedings, mid-day meds, or nightly snuggles. When I care for pets in a client’s home, I treat it with the same respect I would my own. I follow all instructions closely — from feeding schedules to security routines — and I’m extremely mindful about keeping doors locked, floors clean, and pets safe. I believe in calm, consistent environments, especially for animals. I keep noise to a minimum, never invite guests over, and I’m happy to update you with daily messages or photos so you always know your pets are well. Trust and safety are my top priorities — both for your animals and your home.

About: I have taken care of dogs for many years ! While I am most experienced with golden retrievers and helped train them for two years, I am comfortable with any and all dog breeds and sizes. Love going on car rides with a dog in my back seat !! Can’t wait to snuggle your furry friend. :) I work night shift at Starbucks, so I am able to pop in most mornings and early afternoons as well as after 9 PM for a late night visit ! If looking for extensive care over a period of time, I am more then willing to request time off specifically for your buddy. I am comfortable with crate trained dogs as well as free roam friends ! I will make sure to clean up after your friend and ensure they are safe and cozy while you’re gone.

About: I've had my cat for about 10 years now so I understand how much love & care an animal needs. I love dogs just as much but don't have the time for my own at the moment so that's why I love to take care of dogs! My expirence has been mostly taking care of family pets & family friends pets until I started Rover & have had a ton of connections and experience through this app. I have taken care of multiple people's pets in the past mostly doing drop in visits, walks, and over night stays. I really love animals and always take care of them like their my own. I currently looking for a full time job so my schedule is pretty free for the most part. I usually take last minute jobs most of the times I'm requested. I am very respectful when I am in your home, I make sure I'll keep your place tidy.

About: I have loved dogs for most of my life. I love helping people and meeting other dogs with drop in visits and dog walking. Thanks for checking my profile. I work full time but most of my weekends are free and I update my calendar often. I am available during the week in the evenings. I live in a quiet neighborhood and all other dogs are either fenced in or on a leash. I love taking dogs on long walks and letting them explore and burn off their energy.

About: I’ve cared for family pets, friends pets, and others pets. I’ve adopted most of my pets from shelters and been able to care to them and make them feel wanted again. I walk dogs and make sure they get enough time outside and enjoy themselves. Currently with being a college student, The schedule is a littler tighter but I’m able to dog walk or sit earlier in the day more often than later in the day. Classes are mostly from 2-8 with one class in the morning around 9-12 but days vary. I tend to most dogs i’ve owned with care because of them coming from shelters. I’ve had to be gentle with them and slowly build their trust over time and showing them that I’m not there to harm them like a previous owner might have. I listen to them and make sure they’re fed and happy.
