Pet Sitting & Drop Ins in Lido Shores, Sarasota, FL

“Kimberly does a great job as a pet sitter for my two year old cat. I have added drop-in sessions close to the day of drop-in and Kimberly has accommodated them. My very shy cat trusts Kimberly so I can leave home knowing Liliya is safe and cared for. I’m grateful to have found her on the Rover app.”

About: I've been pet-sitting since I was 10 years old. I grew up around dogs and farm animals, and have always loved taking care of them. I'm familiar with all type of breeds and energy levels. I am a voice teacher and singer, so my schedule is very flexible. I can work around almost anything and will be able to give consistent care if needed. Each animal is unique, and I pride myself on being able to adapt easily to new routines so that your fur baby can continue their day with little to no upsets.

“Annie was very accommodating at such short notice, was able to do a meet & greet with my two large breed dogs and was very comfortable with my barky lab. She let them out for a run and play in the yard, fed them and let them out again for a potty break before leaving, and sent a play pic. Thank you again for your time! I’d very much like to use your services again in the future! Wish there was a way to leave a tip on this app, like they do for Uber.”

“I set up the appointment with Erin as an opportunity to meet and have an initial interaction. She immediately was focused on building a connection with my Bentley and by playing and interacting was already picking up on nuances of Bentley and showed a genuine interest and affection. I wouldn't hesitate to have Erin spend extended time with Bentley knowing he would be well taken care of. Think he's missing her already!”

About: I’ve always loved animals since I was a kid and got my first dog when I was 10. They lived a long and healthy 18 years of life. When they were 15, we got them some company with a puppy! Although their energy was opposite, they got along swelling well. Loving to get back in touch with the fur family so I’ve been caring for family and friends pets more often. I’m an actor so I always know how to entertain them as well as being able to read them pretty well. I have some experience with administering medication as well. I’m currently a grad student on summer break so I have plenty of time currently for all my fur babies needs! Once school begins in September I’m positive so early morning as well as evening care is more than possible. I do not offer care at my own home, but am an extremely neat, tidy, and minimal person. Any past clients I’ve had to do overnight stays with can attest to that.

About: I've been taking care of almost every size of dogs and cats for over 9 years for my neighbors, friends of neighbors, and friends of my parents.

I have experience with taking care of older dogs and cats and keeping a schedule of their medications, if they are taking any. I will take care of your little ones, give them plenty of walks, and playtime! Example: I grew up with dogs and my parents still have two adorable little ones at home and whenever they go out of town, it is easy for me to travel to their house and watch them while I work at their house and keep to their feeding and walking schedule, as well as their medication. babies and give them When caring for senior dogs and cats, I would follow a pretty strict schedule for their medications, ointments, etc. and would be able to be there in case they needed any extra attention. I am available during the week, weekends, and evenings. I work a fully remote job so I am available during the day at any time. I will never invite anyone over to a client’s house, I give them comfort if they get nervous around thunderstorms or fireworks, or any other kind of loud noises.
