About: My animals are my heart. I believe their love outweighs any human love and I can’t imagine life without my faithful friends! In being a pet Mama for good portion of my life, I do whatever it takes to let them know they are loved and taken care of for. I think it’s important that people treat their pets as family members… I am experienced at administering medications and fluids with dogs and cats. I have several Pets of my own, cats, a dog, and birds. I gave each and everyone as much love and attention as I possibly can. A rub on the back of the neck, the butt, or the top of the head is Heaven for them I am reliable, caring, and honest and would love the opportunity to interact with your faithful furry family members! I’m self employed so try to work with each clients needs and schedules. Each animal will get my undivided attention to ensure they stay comfortable I try to engage play time or cuddles..walks and personal interaction depends on each animal and what they want and need. I follow their lead

About: I've always loved dogs-big or small, shy or playful, each one has a special place in my heart. Caring for pets has become more than just a passion; it's a part of who I am. I take the time to get to know every pet and their needs so I can make them feel safe, loved and happy. My goal is to give them the same love and attention I give my own. After recently retiring, I've found that caring for dogs is the perfect way to fill my days with joy and purpose. With more time and flexibility now, I can focus on creating a safe, loving environment where pets feel comfortable and happy. When I come into your home, my priority is your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness. I provide gentle, reliable care so your pet feels loved.

About: As a veterinary assistant student with over 100 hours of shelter experience, I bring trusted, hands-on care. I am a dog mother of two dachshunds and understand canine behavior, safety, and health. Your pet will be treated with the same attentiveness, patience, and love I give my own. I’m trained to notice subtle changes in animals, ensuring peace of mind while you’re away. I work Monday - Friday 8-5 at a law firm, I make sure I prioritize pet care every single day — including weekends. My schedule is flexible, and I make it a point to carve out consistent time for walks, feedings, check-ins, and quality care. Animals are a huge part of my life, so you can trust that I’ll always show up on time, stay communicative, and treat your pets with the same care I give my own.

When it comes to caring for pets, whether in my home or a client’s—I believe in creating a calm, safe, and loving environment where animals feel secure and understood. I’ve dedicated countless hours to researching proper training, canine behavior, and enrichment, and I’ve used that knowledge to raise my own with patience and consistency. I only give my dogs the best, and I bring that same level of care to every animal I work with. From structured walks to soothing downtime, I pay attention to what each pet needs and follow routines closely. At the shelter, I made it a priority to ensure every animal felt respected, safe, and seen. I’ll do the same for yours. Building trust takes time, but I show up every time, with love, intention, and a deep respect for your pet’s well-being.

About: I have been walking and boarding dogs for 5 years, gaining experience with a variety of breeds, including large dogs in my household. Currently, I am in the process of becoming a certified dog trainer, and I will be working part-time in this role in the meantime. I have some days off during the week and occasionally on weekends to care for dogs. I am available anytime from 9 AM to 5 PM. If you need earlier availability, please feel free to reach out and request it. I want to assure you that I will be very respectful and responsible while caring for your pup at your home and in mine.

I will walk and feed your dog according to your specific instructions, giving them plenty of love while you’re away. Additionally, I always make sure they are clean and have enough water, especially since we’re in Florida! 😄

About: Hello my name is Kaylin, I am from Ohio and grew up around animals, especially dogs/cats. Nextdoor was a Veterinary hospital where I sought out volunteering in the interest of helping animals. As a child, I imagined I would work with animals in some way. When I was 6 years old, I decided to brush our Jack Russel Terrier’s teeth with a toothbrush! I have always treated our pets as family members. After graduating high school, I moved to Northern California for 11 years where I attended a junior college and started working with Rover. In 2017, I received a pet grooming certification after a 9 week advanced course from The West Coast Grooming Academy in Pasadena, CA. I have taken dog walking/training courses while also volunteering for a local animal rescue foundation! We recently moved here to Sebring and I am excited to be offering my services here. Independently I have gained work as a mobile pet groomer and have previously been employed at a Petco grooming salon. Because of my love for animals, I assure you any pets in my care will have a positive experience. Thank you in advance for reviewing my profile and I look forward to meeting you and your furbabies! 🐾🐾🐾🐾🐾 I am available anytime of the week to care for your pet/pets as I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to do walks, drop ins dog boarding and house sitting. I love making time to care for pets. I will provide exactly what your fur baby needs including any special requests and make sure they are happy and comfortable. I can provide daily walks if you would like that for your pet as well.

About: What sets me apart is over 10 years of hands on experience caring for my own dogs. I’ve been through every stage of a pup’s life from energetic, curious puppies to the tender care senior dogs need. I understand the patience, consistency, and love it takes to keep dogs happy and healthy. Because of this, I treat every dog like family, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away.” Right now, I have plenty of free time which means I can give your pet my full attention.I enjoy making pet care part of my daily routine from morning walks to playtime and cuddles throughout the day. Having the flexibility in my schedule allows me to keep pets on their normal routines and make sure they always feel cared for and comfortable. In my home, I make sure pets feel safe and comfortable by giving them a calm space, regular walks, and plenty of playtime and affection just like I do with my own dogs. I follow their normal routines as closely as possible so they feel right at home. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and stick to the pet’s usual schedule for feeding, walks, and rest. My goal is always to keep pets happy, loved, and stress free, whether they’re with me or staying in their own familiar environment.

About: As a child raised on a farm, I developed a natural ability to nurture and care for animals of all kinds. For as long as I can remember, I have provided my pets with everything they need to thrive. I have owned several dogs and cats over the years. I make sure they remain happy and healthy. This includes administering treatments when necessary, bathing them regularly, trimming their nails, keeping up with vaccinations and medical checkups, and providing plenty of affection and companionship on a daily basis. Taking care of animals comes naturally to me. I not only provide for their basic needs, but I also establish a loving bond with my pets through consistent care, grooming, attention, and of course walks and treats. The wellbeing of the animals in my care is of the utmost importance to me. Pet care is completely integrated into my daily routine and responsibilities. From the moment I wake up, my focus is on ensuring the needs of my pets are met. Each morning begins with filling food and water bowls, cleaning litter boxes, and walking the dogs. My farm animals also require daily attention in terms of feeding, watering and letting them into their specific areas. Throughout the day, I am constantly checking in on my pets, refilling water, playing with them, and providing comfort and companionship. If any of my pets show signs they are unwell or need to see a vet, I make that my top priority and will rearrange my schedule accordingly to take them to appointments. Even during the nighttime, I am there for my pet and their needs and listen for any sounds that would indicate they want to go outside or need something. Their wellbeing and happiness comes before anything else in my routine. No matter what else is going on in my day, my pets always receive the time, care and love they deserve from me. As a dedicated pet caregiver, I provide for all the needs of the animals under my supervision. Whether at my own home or a client's residence, my focus is always on ensuring the pets remain happy, healthy, and well behaved. I allow the pets outdoor access at regular intervals, taking them for walks when needed. Basic hygiene is a priority, so pets receive routine grooming that includes baths and nail trimming. I play with the animals frequently to and provide lots of affection, hugs, and praise to make sure they feel loved. Their diet is closely monitored. I prepare fresh food and change water dishes regularly. I also secure away objects that could pose a hazard if left where a pet could access them. Regular vet appointments are scheduled to check them out and keep them up to date with everything. I take the pets to parks and other open spaces for fun. My role as a pet caregiver ensures all needs are met and the animals remain comfortable and content, whether at my own residence or under my supervision at a client's home. The pets' happiness and wellbeing are my top priorities.

About: Since childhood, I’ve always cared for dogs. After losing my beloved dog, I’ve longed to feel that special connection again, and I’m ready to give your pup the love they deserve. I work part-time, so I can take your dog out during the morning shift or lunch breaks, ensuring they get the attention they deserve while you’re at work. My home is pet-friendly with a secure, fenced yard where dogs can roam freely and safely.
