House Sitting in Lakewood Ranch

“This was one of the most amazing experiences of my dog mom life! My boy Yeti and his 2 very best friends were taken care of like a prince and his princesses by Lori ! Given the situation of Fourth of July/ fireworks, thunderstorm season , and stress colitis in 2 of three doggies . Lori handled it all with lots of love , compassionately and professionally ! She’s 10 stars in our books ! Highly recommend and we will be surely using her again The Twins”

“This was our first time using Rover and I was really nervous. Jamie is very kind hearted and our two fur babies enjoyed their time with her. One of our pups usually does not immediately take to people and she went right over to Jamie and visited with her a couple of times during our meet and greet prior to hiring Jamie. Jamie was fine with the instructions we left for feeding, walking, and how to make our fur family feel less stressed by keeping their routine. We already have Jamie scheduled for two more trips we have coming up. Thanks for your help Jamie. ☺️”

“Craig and his fiancée Karli are the only people I trust to watch my dog. He is always so happy to go over there and doesn't seem to mind when we leave him there. They send us lots of pictures so we can still see him and feel close while we are gone. They also take great care of their own dog... taking her to the vet regularly and keeping her active. Highly recommend!”

“Melissa was a wonderful dog sitter to our fur baby, Rambo. She was friendly, professional and very responsive. She gave us updates while we were away and spent quality time with Rambo, which really set our minds at ease.”

“Ellie is reliable, communicative and easy to work with. Our dogs were very happy to receive one on one love from her. We feel 100% confident in Ellie's abilities as a dog and house sitter and will for sure hire her again!”

“Kathy went above and beyond taking care of our 2 dogs, our plants and even removing mushrooms from the grass to avoid accidental poisoning. We can't say enough good things about her. You won't go wrong with Kathy, our dogs adore her.”

“Denise is a dog whisperer and Tim is great! They had been in our house less than 45 minutes and Buddy the chihuahua let her pick him up! This is seriously unheard of! They kept me informed of what was happening with Bud and, what I liked best, was when they were uncertain doing his insulin shot, they texted me and asked. I love when people want to do it right. They rock and we will definitely be relying on them in the future.”

“Amazing, Carolyn took wonderful care of our two young pups and our old lady. Caroline went above and beyond, walking, park trips, special healthy treats, training, inisightful daily updates and lovely pictures. We were able to truly relax knowing our dogs were in very capable hands. We returned to home to puppies who seem to have become more well behaved than when we left - Less jumping up, heeling on the leash and waiting when told. Also had daily reports cards and overall end of week wrap up which was fantastic. On top of that Caroline left our house in top top shape. Thank you Caroline, truly appreciate all you did for our puppies,”

“Alex went above and beyond! Desi was immediately charmed. Alex also took her to the dog park, and communicated throughout the entire time. Will def be my first contact the next time i need a sitter. Thanks a million”

“David went above and beyond to care for my pup and kept her safe during a hurricane. He treated my pup so well I was afraid she didn’t want to come home. He kept me up to date on everything and I will DEFINITELY be using David in the future for my sitting needs.”

“My dog enjoyed his time with Rylee”

“She was dedicated to caring for our boys! She even stayed with them until we got home because it was storming!”

“Lauren is amazing with dogs she has 3 at home. She always makes sure they are happy and entertained. My dog absolutely loved her when he met her and she absolutely adores him.”

“Karrie was truly amazing with our Great Dane! She was super responsive and very helpful and patient with his dog mom (lol) and staying on top of administering his meds. I’d recommend her to everyone, you won’t be disappointed!! Thank you again Karrie, can’t wait to see you again soon!”

“Jennifer dog-sat at our home for a 4 day weekend and from past stays, I didn’t even have to stress about how our dogs were doing. She takes such good care of them! We had a hiccup with access to the house and Jennifer went way out of her way to make sure she could still get access to the dogs to let them out. So grateful we found her!”

“Brandon has grown up in a family who takes pride in providing a safe, loving home for unwanted animals. Brandon is patient, understanding and attentive to what each animals needs are. He is a very reliable young man who will provide excellent care to any animal he is responsible for.”

“We could not have been happier with the job Amanda did in taking care of our 4 dogs at our house during our 6 day vacation. She went above and beyond at every turn, sent us plenty of pictures, and we were able to just relax and enjoy ourselves. She will definitely be the first person we reach out to when we take our next vacation.”

“Carla did great with our little guy. Will be using her again. He really liked her and that made us able to enjoy our time away knowing he was in good hands.”

“Marco did a wonderful job taking care of our babies over Easter weekend so we could be with our children. Eternally grateful to this young man. We have 3 pups, two of which are very large. Marco was warm and enteractive with them from their initial meeting. He met their energy and quickly established trust. With our little one, he was calm and followed cues, allowing my pup to come to him in his own time. Couldn't ask for more. Will definitely keep Marco in mind for future dog sitting events.”

About: I’ve alsway had animals; however, I took that love further by running a seven doctor veterinarian practice that also included a holistic health center, canine and feline rehabilitation/prosthetics and a boarding facility/doggy daycare. My full time job is working from home in the afternoons and evenings and so my schedule is flexible during the day or can be discussed for specific needs. I don’t have the ability to have pets in my home at this time as I do not have a fenced in yard or enclosure.
