Cat Sitting in Live Oak

“Pauline was great with my dogs, they had to warm up a bit but that was expected. She was on time and satisfied my needs for pet care. I’d recommend her to anyone who needs help with their pets while out of town.”

“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.”

“Jenna is absolutely amazing! We just moved to the area and had to unexpectedly get a sitter for a week with only a few days notice. She worked with us on our limited time table and went out of her way to meet our pups and make us feel comfortable. Throughout the week she cared for them, She stayed in communication with us and left wonderful notes with multiple pictures so we stayed updated. Instead of just letting our 3 dogs out and refilling water, she truly took the extra time to play with them and give them lots of cuddles. They began sitting at the window looking for her excitedly around the hour she comes! I'm so happy to have found someone who my dogs adore and who I know will go the extra mile to care for them. Definitely recommend Jenna for anyone who needs a sitter!”

About: Very experienced caring for all types of animals including farm animals and birds. 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. I will be happy to cuddle with your pet and take very good care of them.

About: Hi there! 🐾 My name is Brian, and animals have been at the heart of my life for as long as I can remember. From growing up surrounded by family pets to helping neighbors with their furry friends, I’ve built years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, and even the occasional small critter. Caring for animals isn’t just something I do — it’s something I love. Experience & Skills Dogs of All Sizes & Personalities: I’ve worked with everything from energetic puppies who are still learning leash manners to senior dogs who need a little extra patience and gentle care. Whether it’s high-energy walks, playtime fetch sessions, or slow, comforting strolls, I tailor each outing to the dog’s needs. Cats & Small Pets: I understand that cats and smaller animals need a calm and respectful approach. I’m comfortable providing fresh food and water, cleaning litter boxes, giving affection, or simply being a quiet, trustworthy presence for those who are more independent. Medication & Special Needs: I have experience administering oral medications and following special feeding or activity routines. I know how important consistency is for pets with health needs, and I always take extra care to follow instructions closely. Safety First: I’m attentive on walks, always checking surroundings, watching for other animals, and making sure your pet is safe and comfortable. Your pet’s wellbeing is my top priority. What I Offer Dog Walking: From quick potty breaks to long, energy-burning walks, I’ll make sure your pup gets the exercise and stimulation they need. Drop-in Visits: I can stop by for feeding, playtime, and check-ins to ensure your pets are happy, hydrated, and cared for while you’re away. House Sitting: For pets who prefer the comfort of their own space, I’m available to stay in your home, keeping your pet company and maintaining their normal routine. Why Choose Me? I treat every animal as if they were my own — with patience, kindness, and respect. I understand the trust it takes to let someone else care for your pets, and I take that responsibility seriously. You can expect regular updates, photos, and messages so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing. At the end of the day, I want both you and your pet to feel at ease. My goal is to provide not just reliable pet care, but genuine companionship that makes tails wag and purrs rumble. One of the most important parts of pet care is consistency, and I structure my schedule to make sure your pets get the attention they need when they need it most. 🐾 Weekly Availability Weekdays (Mon–Fri): I’m available mornings, afternoons, and evenings. This means I can cover everything from quick morning potty breaks to afternoon walks or evening feedings. Weekends (Sat–Sun): I keep my weekends flexible for pet care, so whether you’re away for the day or traveling overnight, I can be there to keep your pets happy and safe. Flexibility I’m able to accommodate last-minute requests whenever possible. If your plans change suddenly, I’ll do my best to step in and help. I can adjust to your pet’s normal routine — whether they’re early risers, midday snackers, or nighttime cuddlers, I’ll keep their schedule consistent so they feel secure. Services by Time of Day Morning Walks / Check-Ins: Great for pups who need exercise before you head to work. Midday Visits: Perfect for a potty break, feeding, or playtime to break up the day. Evening Care: Walks, dinner feeding, litter care, or winding down with snuggles. Overnight Stays: For pets who need extra comfort, I offer overnight house sitting to keep their routine stable in their own home. Communication I’ll always confirm availability ahead of time, and I send updates during each visit so you know exactly when I was there and how your pet is doing. When it comes to caring for pets, I believe three things matter most: safety, trust, and environment. These are the values I bring to every walk, visit, or overnight stay. 🐾 Safety First Your pet’s wellbeing is always my top priority. I stay alert on walks, keeping a close eye on traffic, other animals, and potential hazards. I never let pets off-leash unless in a fully secure, enclosed space, and I follow your instructions carefully when it comes to feeding, exercise, or medications. I’m also trained to notice subtle changes in behavior or health so small issues don’t go unnoticed. 🐾 Built on Trust I understand how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pets and your home in someone else’s care. That’s why I communicate openly, follow directions to the letter, and send regular updates and photos so you always know how things are going. My goal is for you to feel complete peace of mind knowing your pets are cared for as if they were my own. 🐾 A Comfortable Environment I believe pets thrive best when their routines and spaces feel consistent. Whether I’m visiting your home or staying overnight, I make sure your pets feel safe and comfortable in their familiar environment. For cats, that may mean quiet patience and gentle interaction. For dogs, that could mean structured walks and plenty of play. Every animal has their own rhythm, and I take the time to adapt to it.

About: I have 6 kids- 3 of those are dogs. I am very familiar with walking, feeding and the loving needed to keep them happy and healthy. I am available evenings and weekends and with advanced notice can have addl availability. Last minute availability also possible.. Feel free to ask. Holiday availability possible too. I do not board dogs and will not bring other dogs to my home. But i am willing to sit at your home and ensure your pet is safe and happy.

“Rebekah is awesome! I had to go out of town for a week and came back to a very happy and healthy kitty cat! She took such great care of him while I was away and I couldn’t be more thankful.”

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.
