Dog Sitting in Lake Hamilton

About: Hi! I recently moved from New York to Florida and I have 8 years of experience in dog walking and pet sitting, with a strong background in providing loving, reliable care. I worked for a company Suburban Pets and also on my own and now I am on Rover. My services include dog sitting in your home, walks, drop ins, playtime, feedings, cleaning, and administering medications as needed. I also have hands-on experience from volunteering at a senior dog rescue and am proud to have adopted three senior and disabled dogs of my own. I treat every pet as if they were my own—with patience, compassion, and attention to their individual needs. I currently work part-time as a kennel tech at a dog rescue in Lakeland, where I care for dogs twice a day on Monday, Wednesday, Thurs & Fridays (8:00–11:00) AM and 3:30–6:00 PM). On Tuesdays I only work one shift in the morning (8:00–11:00 AM). I am able to visit before, in between and after my shifts. I am completely available on weekends and can provide flexible scheduling outside of my rescue shifts. Pet care is a full-time commitment for me and an essential part of my daily routine. I’m fully dedicated to providing reliable, consistent care and am available any time I’m needed—weekdays, weekends, and holidays. Safety and trust are my top priorities when caring for pets. I always start by getting to know each pet’s routine, behavior, and any specific needs or health concerns. In the home, I maintain a clean, pet-safe environment. I follow all instructions closely, keep communication open with regular updates, and treat every pet and home with the same respect and care I give my own.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my professional grooming back ground for nearly 19 years. I always loved all kinds of animals since I was a child. Growing up, I would take care of my neighbors and family members pets. As soon as I was an adult, I rescued my first mutt called Fifi, she was the love of my life. Soon after I found a little kitten and I named her Cucusa. Forward to now: I went to grooming school and I never looked back. I have a Frenchie named Duscha, a Lab-doodle named Sophia and 2 cats named Simba and Roxy. What ever your pets need: drop in visits a few times a day or a nice brisk or leisure walk for your pup.....I can do it! I am a Groomer and I can make my own schedule. I will always find the time to fit in a walk or drop in visits for your family pets. I will follow all your care and walk instructions. I will make sure your pets will always get my undivided attention. I will make sure your home and pets are safe and secure when I leave.

“Madeline took care of my two dogs and quickly earned their trust in just three drop-in visits. She was kind, attentive, and clearly cared about their well-being. She made sure all their needs were met and kept me updated throughout. I will definitely be booking her services again and highly recommend her.”

About: I have had a boxer and a bullmastiff, but I have experience working with yellow labs, golden retrievers, as well smaller dogs. I also had a cat that I cared for and help take care of my roommates cat when I am away at school. In high school I took a course that taught me how to properly care for and handle chinchillas, rats, gerbils, ferrets, rabbits, and other small pets. I have watched my sister’s, cousin’s, and aunt’s dogs on several occasions and would be happy to work on different tricks and skills with puppies and kittens. My top priority will be making sure your pet is safe and entertained! I am a substitute teacher and am going to have a lot of extra time on my hands when school gets out at the end of May. I don’t have a pet myself and would love to help make pet care easier for people who need it! I love spending time with animals and will happily play fetch or tug of war for as long as your dog is would like, or any game your pet loves.

I have had dogs and cats my entire life. We also raised chickens and currently my daughter has a litter trained bunny. I am employed full time however I make my own schedule so I am available for early morning walks, mid day drop ins and long evening walks. Can provide 2-3 drop ins daily, boarding at my home, as well as house sitting upon request. My backyard is fenced in. I also have very pet obsessed teenagers to offer a helping hand.

About: I had a family dog around since I was 8 years old. I’ve helped care for 3 dogs my family had, from small to large. I’ve administered flea/heartworm medicine and Benedryl for dogs with anxiety or separation anxiety. I’m also particularly careful with cleanups since those can be the biggest stresses. I work a full time job but I am needing the side hustle life to keep myself busy. Sundays are available after 2p and Mon-Sat available after 3p. I live in a safe community neighborhood with plenty of dogs walked by neighbors, safe environment with police living nearby as well. I have an open field next to my rental home for running around and outdoor space.

“Melissa is incredibly reliable and trustworthy. We felt so good knowing she was looking after our 2 dogs. She is knowledgeable and comfortable with animals and definitely treats them as her own! Even with certain things I may have forgotten to mention for our pets, Melissa used excellent judgement and cared for them exactly how we would! She took pictures for us and was always prompt and on time. We love her and would not hesitate to book her anytime!”

Depending on your fur babies routine, I can adapt to the needs of your babies. Just a matter of is having communications and forming a plan

About: What makes me different from other dog sitters is my deep love for pets and my education as a vet assistant. This background gives me special skills and knowledge that help me care for dogs in a way that keeps them safe and happy. I have learned about their needs health and behavior which allows me to provide the best care possible. When I watch over dogs I treat them just like I would my own pets. I understand that every dog has its own personality and needs so I make sure to give them the attention and love they deserve. I believe that every pet should feel comfortable and secure while they are in my care. This means I spend time playing with them making sure they get enough exercise and giving them plenty of affection. Respect is a big part of how I care for pets. I listen to their needs and pay attention to their feelings. I know that dogs can feel anxious or scared in new situations so I do my best to create a calm and friendly environment. By treating each dog with kindness and respect I help them feel at home even when their owners are away. This is what truly sets me apart as a dog sitter. I work full time but have two days off each week when I can take care of them. On my workdays I can check on them between 8 AM and 1:30 PM. I have a large fenced yard for us to play in and there's a room for them to stay if necessary. One of my pets can also join in the fun if needed.
