About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and fell in love with the world of cats about eight years ago. As an active person, I have plenty of energy to run, play and keep up with even the most energetic pups! I have a wealth of experience, caring for pets of all ages and personalities. Since I work from home, your pet will get all the love attention and belly rubs they want. Plus with our massive backyard and endless toys, there’s no shortage of fun. I currently work from home and am a homebody that really loves to either relax or run around outside in the yard. I have a huge bath tub if they need some bath time, a large back yard that is safe to play & roam, and even a pool IF they like to and know how to swim. Our whole yard is fenced in and secure. Both dog & cat are very pet friendly and love to play but also know when to give you space!

About: I have been training and caring for dogs for 15 years. I have trained and bred service dogs and protection dogs and can always help with your pets as well! We have a little over an acre for your dog to run, play, and really enjoy their retreat! Medications and supplements can be administered as needed. We have multiple dogs of our own, but I work locally and can leave work to tend to your pet and come back! Whatever your schedule is, we can work around it!

About: I have had pets literally my entire life. Dogs, cats, horses, and other small animals. I am patient, kind, loving, and know how to bond quickly with them. I truly enjoy the company of dogs especially and they always sense that and enjoy being with me as well. I have significant flexibility in my schedule. I can easily make the loving care of your pet my priority. I focus on Thursdays through Sunday/Monday for those quick weekend trips. I live in a small, senior park with lots of grass, a new, fenced dog park, and paved roads just in case your well-loved dog(s) may have grass or sand sensitivity. I have lots of time to devote to your dog. I can walk them, take them on golf cart rides, or give them time to play in the dog park.

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 not touch or look at anything other than items related to the dogs. All I ask is that the dog items are well-maintained and that their food and water bowls are clean. 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! 😄

“Patricia took care of my dog on a weekly basis while I stayed at my Florida home. Jimmy looked forward to his visits and would pull me to Patricia’s door. Jimmy enjoyed playing with Patricia’s pup’s as well. Patricia was very accommodating when I had dinner dates etc. that ran late and required a bit more doggy care. I highly recommend sending your pup to Patricia’s!!!!”

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: I have been caring for dogs for over 20 years. My commitment to dogs, no matter their age, comes from the fact that I love them and I love working with them. Older dogs require a different kind of care, a little calmer, more established routines, puppies are more active, patience and lots of activity. It is important to me the routine that the owner describes for their pet, following their instructions is very important. It is a commitment to take care of a pet, I work from home so I can adapt according to the needs of the pets I agree to take care of. Walks, running on my property (+ 1 Acre) 1 hour of indoor play or more if required. Our property is fenced, our routines are established by our pets, so all security is very important to us, they will be living inside the house with air conditioning and always under my supervision. The walks will be done on a leash and according to the needs of the animal, water is essential, as well as the hours of the same. The instructions of the parents are very important to me, they will always be followed.
