Dog Sitting Lakewood Ranch

“I can't recommend Jill enough! She took outstanding care of our cat 'Socks' while we were out of state for a week. Our one cat, Socks, is 18 plus years old and needs daily interaction or he panics. He really enjoyed all the attention from Jill and this was clear from the daily updates from Jill. Socks seemed to look forward to her visits. We arrived home to a calm and purring cat child. Jill took great care of him and we feel extremely pleased that we can take another trip away for a week if Jill is available.”

About: Since I was born there has always been at least 1 dog in my home. From senior dogs to puppies. Energetic dogs to couch potatoes. I’ve had them all! I am comfortable with and capable of taking care of dogs at all times of life! I’m currently not working, so I have plenty of time on my hands to take care of lots of furry friends! My schedule is open all day every day! I can let the dog(s) out in the yard if you have one as well as walk them. My eyes would be on them at all times and play time is promised!

“Dylan is a great dog sitter. I have a little dog what does not like many people and though she was still scared she warmed up to Dylan and let him walk her. He provided great notes and daily updates. I am very hesitant with who I let watch my dogs but I will for sure be using Dylan in the future.”

About: I have been a pet owner for about 15 years. I love walking dogs and caring for cats and fish. I am passionate about ensuring that pets are well cared for and just as happy when their owners return home as when they left. I am a second year dental student and have a fairly open schedule. I only have class for a few hours in the morning and some afternoons during the week days. I am available for dog walking and for general pet sitting responsibilities If I am caring for a dog then I make sure that they get plenty of exercise with a walk and being let outside. I also follow the directions of the client if they need to be crated or if a portion of the house is off limits to the pet. For cats I will make sure that they are fed and that the litter box is clean and anything additional the client is looking for.

About: As a pet parent to two dogs and a kitten, I’m well-versed in managing different personalities, energy levels, and daily routines. I provide reliable, attentive care—whether that means active neighborhood walks or quiet drop-ins with plenty of play and affection. I’ll treat your pets with the same level of care and attention I give my own. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to easily accommodate drop-in visits and walks throughout the week. Pet care fits seamlessly into my daily routine alongside caring for my own animals. Safety is my top priority. I always verify doors and gates are secure, follow detailed care instructions closely, and keep pets properly leashed or supervised during all visits and outdoor time.

“cannot say enough good things about [Dog Sitter’s Name]. From the very beginning, communication was clear, prompt, and friendly, which instantly gave me peace of mind. [He/She/They] took the time to understand my dog’s routine, personality, and little quirks, and it really showed in the care provided. Throughout the stay, I received regular updates and photos, and it was obvious that my dog was happy, comfortable, and well-loved. When I came home, everything was spotless, and my pup was relaxed and content (a true sign of great care!). It’s not easy to trust someone with your furry family member, but Jewell exceeded all expectations. Reliable, caring, and professional — I would recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter who treats your dog like their own.”

About: I have taken care of animals my whole life, and have cared for 4 dogs in my home until. I love dogs, the outdoors, and being active, so dog walking is super fun for me! I have experience with high-energy dogs as well as slower senior pups. I work part-time and have a very flexible schedule, so I have plenty of free time for your pets! I’m currently available all day (including early mornings) until evening, Monday-Saturday for walks or check-in visits. I currently have Bo, a senior pitbull, who is super chill and has no problems with other dogs. I also recently got a Belgian Malinois puppy named Darth Vader! Mercury, my brother’s 6 year old Australian Cattle dog, loves to play and I take care of him on occasion. We have a large patio and pool that dogs can enjoy laying in the sun or swimming! I also have a super walk able neighborhood, with a walking trail that is off the pavement. Additionally, I do enjoy taking dogs in the car for walks in new locations or trips to the dog beach/park!

“Susan was amazing!! This was our first time using Rover and she went above and beyond to make us feel at ease! Looking forward to working with her again!!”

About: Hello pet parents! I bring 15 years of deep pet care experience to Rover, rooted in a lifetime of loving animals. I actually grew up on a farm caring for a wide variety of different animals from a young age. This foundational upbringing instilled in me an instinctual understanding of animal behavior and welfare. As an adult dog owner, I experienced the rewards of adopting and completely training an Australian Shepherd and a Border Collie. Raising two incredibly intelligent, high-energy working breeds taught me the absolute necessity of patience, positive reinforcement, and clear structural routines. Today, my Aussie manages hypothyroidism, which means I am deeply familiar with specialized medical care. I am fully accustomed to administering daily medications exactly on schedule and maintaining a carefully balanced exercise routine to keep her healthy and thriving. I am currently an Orthodontic Intern at LECOM School of Dental Medicine. My hours are 8:15AM-11:45AM and 12:45PM-3:45PM. I am available to stop in around the morning, lunch, and afternoon hours. During house sitting or drop-in visits, I seamlessly maintain your pet’s familiar routine while providing engagement and love. I excel at balancing active play, including backyard games and safe, fun trips to local dog parks, with calm, reassuring comfort to ease separation anxiety. I respect your home’s security and rules, maintain total cleanliness, and send photo updates to keep you completely worry free.

“Carmella is terrific. She is responsive, punctual, and reliable, with great communication. I will book again with her if she's available.”

About: I have a 11 year old Aussiedoodle who is full of energy, character, and bouncy. We both like to stay active whether that is going for a run or long walk, attend local events, explore new areas, play with toys, continuous enrichment and training. I would like to offer my time to care for dogs when their owners are away on vacation or just need someone to check in on their fur baby. When you leave your fur baby with me he or she will be in the best care and treated as if they were my own. I work remote Monday to Friday with a flexible schedule that I can rearrange or drop in your home between meetings while caring for your dog. I will text you upon arrival and text you upon departure as I am strictly in your home for your dog’s needs, play time, feeding, and walking. I will send you pictures throughout the day and/or when I drop in.

About: I've been around dogs and puppies for as long as I can remember—caring for them has always been second nature to me. Growing up with puppies taught me the importance of patience, consistency, and lots of love. Over the years, I’ve gained hands-on experience with everything from house training to handling energetic pups and providing gentle care for senior dogs. Whether your pet needs playful attention, routine walks, or just some calm companionship, I treat every animal like part of the family. My genuine passion and lifelong experience with dogs is what sets me apart from other sitters. I am a full time Event Coordinator which allows me to have a flexible schedule. I am available everyday, and know my schedule a month advance. I’m always willing to work around my schedule to help others! When caring for pets in their home, my top priorities are safety, trust, and creating a calm, familiar environment. I follow your pet’s daily routine closely—feeding schedules, walk times, playtime, and any specific needs—so they feel as comfortable and stress-free as possible while you’re away. I always treat your home with respect, keeping things clean and secure, and keeping you updated with regular check-ins and photos. Whether it’s a quick drop-in, an overnight stay, or daily walks, I make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and right at home.

About: I owned a husky and let me tell you was he the biggest handful ive ever had to deal with. Thankfully growing up all my life with dogs and through my husky “Koda” I am more than capable of fulfilling all needs a dog/owner could ask for. Right now my schedule is virtually free. Best times to book with me are 9am-5pm. Can work outside those hours in some cases. I am flexible. At home i have always treated my animals with the upmost respect, making sure they feel loved, and giving them a sense of security at all times. At a client’s house it would be no different. I just love all pets.

“Chloe was fantastic! Arrived on time all weekend and spent a considerable amount of time with Bailey before she left. We got terrific updates and pictures, which made us feel very comfortable having her taking care of him. She was fantastic!”
