Top rated Live Oak cat sitters

“Rebekah provided my cat with excellent care while I was away. She was responsive to all of my questions and requests and completed her job duties within the identified timeframe. Most importantly, my cat was not as stressed as prior occasions when I returned home. I highly recommend her and will request her services again.”


“Stephanie, Did a great job with Katie. She prepared her meals and kept her room and bedding cleaned up. She communicated with me regularly and sent photos. I could tell she liked animals and enjoyed caring for them. I would recommend her to others and have discussed plans for her to care for Katie again in the coming months. L.Sink”


“Maryanne & Danielle were excellent! They were in contact with me twice a day keeping me informed of any concerns they had with my dogs & cats. They even found a loving home for my last surviving chicken, others were killed by a fox! I highly recommend them and we will certainly hire them again to care for our dogs & cats for our next trip out of town.”


About: I have cared for a pet for virtually every year of my life that I can remember. From puppies and kittens to the most elder of the two, I cherish all stages of their development and love the joy that each unique individual personality of each pet brings to our world. I'm currently working part time, and on the days that I do work, I work remotely, so I will have plenty of time to dedicate to the care of your pet. I have a beautiful large yard at the end of a cul-de-sac that is full of trees. We live in a very nice neighborhood that is perfect for walking dogs also. We have two indoor cats that get along beautifully and are adaptable to other animals. We have a very clean home and are non-smokers.

About: I have been employed at an animal hospitals for 25 years and have pet sat for cats, dogs, rabbits, horses and birds over the years. I am trustworthy and reliable I am currently working full-time at an animal hospital 9 AM to 6 PM Monday through Friday. I can come in the morning midday at lunchtime or after work if you’re in the area, I can also stay overnight at your home if you prefer. I do have a home with 6 acres however I do not have a fenced yard so I prefer to care for pets in your home. They are often less stress when they are at home in their own environment and seem much happier at their own home.

About: Hello I’m Jasmine and I genuinely care about all pets I am a pet owner I’m available to do home visits walking, personal grooming, and caring for most needs of your Fur Babies my home is open and available for drop off’s doing the morning and evenings. It’s all about having a healthy and happy pet as a pet owner I cherish my animals like they’re my children I also enjoy taking them for long pet -pamper spa days with me,also walks on the beach, engaging fun activities at the park. All pets have to understand the gentleness of having children around! I’ve had my dog since she was six weeks old she engages with other animals very well thanks for the opportunity with trusting me with your for babies

“Best thing I ever done for my kitties, It was great to go on vacation and not worry about my babies. Brittany was wonderful, sent me a picture everyday, that was very nice. Thank you very much.”


About: To me, animals are the most innocent companions we have. They deserve to feel safe, understood, and loved. While I’m not a vet, I bring a deep sense of empathy and a lifelong passion for animals to every interaction. Whether it’s giving meds to a senior dog, helping a disabled pet navigate their day, or handling exotic pets with confidence, I bring calm energy and a strong sense of responsibility to every pet I care for. I work 6:30am - 3pm in Lake City, Monday-Friday. So I can do one Lake City trip and one trip in Jasper or Live Oak Monday - Friday. I am free more on the weekends so I can do at least two drop ins on the weekends if needed. I do not care for pets in my own home. But I am trustworthy and believe that an animal should be left in the environment that they are most familiar with. Removing them from their environment to a strangers will cause too much stress so I am not an advocate of bringing animals to my house. As far as my routine, once I get a new client, I will want to meet the new client and their fur child before they leave for their designated trip. It’s SO IMPORTANT they see me interact with their owner and know that I’m not a threat especially in their own environment. This creates trust and builds a bond between myself and the animal. (Cats can be territorial too! I’ve seen them attack intruders. Don’t underestimate them.) Keeping to routine and treats go a long way are my two general rule of thumb. Animals aren’t human and they don’t like a lot of change so continuing the same routine as their owner is important as fat meal times or cleaning out litter boxes. Not to mention giving them treats after every visit lets them be excited for you to come AND leave.

I own a farm with lots of rescue animals and used to rehabilitate injured & abandoned wildlife for release back into the wild. You can see more about my farm on instagram KokomoFarms I am self employed /semi-retired so I make my own hours and I have plenty of time to care for your babies. I am available all day and night to care for them. Pets that are staying with us will be staying in the home and have a nice comfy area to call temporary home :) For stays in your home, I am Vegan, clean and know how to take initiative if any situation may arise that needs to be taken care of.

About: I’m obsessed with animals, and if you’ll let me, I’ll be obsessed with yours as well! I’ve 3 years of professional experience with animals, currently working at an animal hospital, but I’ve had cared for personal animals all my life. I offer top-notch pet sitting and walking services, ensuring your furry friends are in expert hands. Whether it's a quick walk or extended care, your pets will be treated like family! I work full time, but I am available for afternoons, evenings and weekends! Occasionally I work from home and would be available during those days as well. My pets are my family, and I will treat yours the same! I own 3 dogs and 4 cats and understand the importance of keeping them all happy, healthy and safe!

About: I have lived with animals my whole life; from chickens, cats, emus, dogs, etc. I can accommodate special needs and will always treat your animals as my own - with love and respect! I am tolerant of behavioral issues, shy animals, and animals with disorders or disabilities. I’ve been taught to take care and provide for animals my whole life. I’ve grown up with a wide variety of dog breeds, from Pit-Bulls, Beagles, Huskies, Shih Tzus, Rat Tarriers, Dachshunds, etc. I look forward to meeting you and your pet(s)! I am available most of the time, and keep my calendar detailed so I can share with you what days I’m available months in advance! I spend most of my time in Alachua, Gainesville, & Branford but can accommodate longer distances with longer stays. Most weekends I am free, and I can easily do drop-in visits nearby! I care for each animal based on the owners needs and requests. I appreciate having a heads up on your pets typical behaviors and habits, and any “rules” you may like them to follow.

About: I have been a pet care provider my whole life and am excited to meet your furry friend! I am always happy to watch others pets and make sure they are well feed and well walked! I can make anything work. Just let me know your schedule and I will make it work, I am very flexible and would be happy to adjust to anything you may need. I give my pets two meals a day and I re-fill their water fountain twice daily. I also make sure their beds are always freshly cleaned and they get lots of cuddles!

About: I've grown up with many animals since I can remember. Your furry friend is sure to find a friend here in my home with a chihuahua, great white pyr, antolian sheperd, goats, and cat. If they prefer to be the only pet in a home, I can accommodate keeping them separate with majority of the home to themselves free range. Pets are welcome on the couch and in the bed in my home. I'm more than happy to accommodate any special needs or care. I always send frequent photo and video updates, and keep an open line of communication for any questions or updates. My work time is very minimal at the moment so I have plenty of time at home to care for your pet. First thing I do in the morning is tend to all my animals. Your pet would never have a boring dull day here on the micro farm :) I have a fenced half acre yard with two friendly well rounded livestock guardian dogs. They would love to have a friend visiting and this will ensure your dog gets fellow canine socialization and playtime while staying with us! If they are not a social dog, I can keep them to front yard solo walks and outdoor time, and they will have the majority of the home to themselves as they please if needed. I have experience with 10lb dogs all the way up to 120lb dogs :) thank you for reading

About: Growing up on a homestead, I’ve got experience with animals of all shapes and sizes. I’ve been pet and housesitting for nearly 10 years, and I get great enjoyment out of it. I suffer from a hidden chronic illness called CVS, that flares up suddenly and severely and may be cause for cancellations. Check out Peace of Mind with Leah on Facebook I work as a full time dog walker. My days are booked from 7am-4pm on weekdays and 7:30-10:30am, 3:30-6:30pm. It is imperative to my health: to walk and spend time outside. I get great satisfaction from ensuring animals are comfortable and happy. Coming to your home allows your pets to stay in their comfort zone, no unnecessary anxiety from traveling or boarding. Daily visits and walks are sometimes enough, although I like to be introduced to them in person with you to keep them most comfortable. I have housekeeping experience, and may offer that too while I’m there for a tip!
