House Sitting in Lloyd

About: In my childhood I had many cats and I have now had a dog for almost 8 years! I started dog sitting about 3 years ago for my neighbors and I really enjoy it. I have taken care of their dogs while they were on vacation and have also dropped in while they were working. I have been around pets my whole life and I love them! I love going on walks and playing with them and am very passionate about animal care. I currently work part time at a bakery but my schedule is pretty flexible around that. I do school mostly online so work is the only time I wouldn’t be with the pet! I never work in afternoons, only in the mornings. Contact me and I can work a shcedule out for you! I am very diligent about following instructions for your pet and I am respectful of both your space and the pet! I am also very diligent about safety and will do my best to keep an eye on your pet the whole time. I will clean any messes that may be made and check locks before leaving every time. I always make it a habit to check for food, water, any potential messes, and locks every visit.

About: I love dogs but I currently can't afford to care for one of my own considering pet deposit, food, and etc. Having a dog in the house makes things overall better. I have been dogsitting/house-sitting for multiple years to fill that hole. I also love to take a lot of walks to stay in shape and having a curious little four-legged friend to accompany me makes them that much more enjoyable. I currently only work part-time so I have plenty of free time and go to the park and on walks. But, if your dog just likes to hang out indoors and watch TV, I'm cool with that as well. I live in a duplex with a nice fenced in backyard for running around in.

“Emily is great! She's pet sat in my home on multiple occasions now. She is familiar with all my pets and their sometimes quirky behaviors. She takes great care of them and takes great care of my home. She communicates frequently throughout her stay and sends pictures and videos often. I highly recommend her for any of your pet sitting needs!”

“Our family had a last minute trip, and Karsen was sweet enough to take care of our 2 older dogs and cat last minute. She was so communicative and made sure our girls were well taken care of and happy while we were gone and even checked on them multiple times a day to make sure they had extra time outside since they’re older and can’t hold it for too long over night. We’re so grateful!”

About: I’ve taken care of every kind of dog since I was about 10 years old. Throughout the years I have cared for my neighbors and family friends pets along side my own pups. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine because I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate time and attention to the pets I care for. I plan my days so that walks, feeding times, playtime, and check-ins are done consistently and on schedule. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, my priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while maintaining their normal routine as much as possible. I carefully follow the owner’s instructions for feeding schedules, medications (if needed), potty breaks, and exercise so their pet experiences as little disruption as possible. In my home, I provide a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment where pets can relax, play, and receive lots of attention. I make sure they have a comfortable place to rest, regular potty breaks, supervised playtime, and plenty of affection. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat their space with the same respect I would my own. I stick closely to the pet’s usual routine, provide walks and playtime, keep food and water fresh, and make sure the home stays tidy. I also provide updates and photos so owners can feel reassured that their pets are happy and well cared for while they’re away. My goal is always to make pets feel loved, safe, and stress-free while their owners are gone.

“Samara was amazing with Maple! Very friendly, attentive, responsible and loving to her. Kept me up-to-date while at work and took very good care of Maple. You can count on Samara to take good care of your pup/dog.”

About: I have a strong love for all animals, but especially dogs! As a proud dog owner myself, I understand the level of trust that goes into selecting a sitter. When you book with me, you can have full confidence that your dog(s) will be in the hands of someone who will take care of them as if they were their own! 😊 I’m currently home for the summer from college, so I have plenty of time to look after your pups! I’m available any day and even accept same day bookings if needed. 😊 I welcome any opportunity to care for your pups. Whether it’s a quick check-in after a long day alone, a nice long walk to keep them happy and energized, or an overnight stay to make sure they’re safe, comfortable, and well cared for, I’m here to help!

About: I work full time as a lead emergency veterinary technician. Love spending time with all animals from puppies, seniors all the way to being there for end of life care. Available for in home boardings, mine or yours. Cuddle and play time are important so I make sure I spend as much time with your baby so they are stress feee and comfortable. I have a fenced in yard. All animals allowed on the furniture. I want it to feel like they are home when they are here.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and other large and small animals since I was 10. I have also worked in a vets office which has only increased my knowledge and care giving skills for all types of animals. Neighbors, friends and family have always relied on me anytime any day of the week to care for their furry friends. I am currently working with Rover full time so I will have time to play with your pets any time of the day with no worries that they will get the care they deserve. although I live in a apartment, I am more happy to take her for a friend for a long enjoyable walk or hike so they get the enrichment they need. If staying at your home, I can be flexible with any care instructions given. I want your pet to feel as comfortable as possible!

“Andrew did an incredible job taking care of our two dogs while we were away for a long weekend. He was attentive & responsive throughout our trip & left our house absolutely spotless. We have already booked him again for our next weekend away!”

Kim D.

“Adrian did a great job caring for my dog. We were able to meet before my weekend away and by the time my trip came up I confidence that everything was going to go great. He sent picture updates and was very quick to respond. Looking forward to working with Adrian again in the future!”

About: My family has owned dogs my entire life - I grew up learning how to best care for them. Very trustworthy, kind, loyal, and loving! I’ve had dogs through all the stages - puppy through senior care. (currently in film graduate school, so my availability reflects mainly weekends. BUT - I am willing to make weekday hours work as well, so please feel free to still reach out to talk about that!) I’m currently a graduate student - but i’m willing to make my schedule work to accommodate your needs! Whatever you need, i’m here to make it work for you, guaranteed! I’m great at following rules and instructions. Whatever your pet needs, I’ll be able to give them guaranteed. I’ve had experience with many breeds also!

About: I've grown up around and cared for animals (mostly cats and dogs) throughout my entire life.. family, friends, and neighbors come to me to care for their pets in either their homes or mine. I have a cat and dog, and have dealt with cats of all demeanors and dogs of all sizes. I abide by Brandon McMillan's Lucky Dog methods, and am experienced with standard training. Also know how to administer meds, and handle emergencies if they occur. I live in SE Tallahassee on a fenced acre, and my entire house is pet-friendly.. it's kind of like a little slice of paradise. Also have a pool, if yours likes to swim like mine. Pet care is normal for me. They let me know what they need, and I take care of it. I work from home, so am always around to ensure pets are taken care of as required. Regardless of where your pet is watched, their needs and your expectations determine care requirements. At your home, I'll follow your routine. My place is on mine. Before committing to anything, I require an introduction meeting with any pets I'll be caring for.

“Just what we needed! Very communicative, and experienced. Handled the dogs amazingly well. Couldn't have asked for better.”

“Isaac was an absolutely amazing dog sitter! Super caring, attentive, and really took the time to understand our dog’s needs. He spent the whole weekend playing with him and making sure he was happy and comfortable. On top of that, he surprised us with a beautiful sketch of our dog, which was such a thoughtful touch. We came home to a very happy pup and couldn’t recommend him more!”

About: I grew up on a farm where I learned about the care for many different animals. I’ve pet sat for others since I was 16 and have been raising my own fur babies for almost 7 years now. I’m gentle, attentive, and value being on time. I’ll treat your fur baby like my own family with professional belly rubs and lots of walks! I am currently in nursing school, so when I’m not in class or at clinicals, I’m available to care for your pet however I am needed any day of the week. I am capable of tailoring care to your pet’s needs. Whether that means needing to be crated, given medication, bathed, or fed a certain way, I will do it. I know how important it is to want to be stress free when leaving your pet in the care of someone else which is why I want to create a safe and trustworthy environment so that you don’t have to worry while away.

About: I have grown up learning how to care for animals. My house has always had at least 3 dogs living in it. My family has always had a passion for caring for and loving animals. We have rehabilitated many animals including a baby deer and bird. I have a dog of my own named Charley, who is my entire world. Charley is an active 4-year old King Charles Spaniel who receives regular walks, playtime, and attention. I have much experience with all kinds of dogs, cats, fish, and rodents! I have helped birth a litter of Australian Shepherd puppies and delivered a surprise litter of kittens on my own while visiting a friend. I am an animal lover and am not afraid to get my hands dirty. I am a full time college student, but my schedule is very flexible. I have many days where I have hours between classes or only one class per day. I would also be available for the weekends and/or game days. I will be in Tallahassee for the entire summer as well. I live in a townhouse with two roommates. We all have a dog, but all of our dogs are spayed, vaccinated, and friendly. I have a fenced in backyard as well. I live very close to Tom Brown Park and Apalachee Regional Dog Park, so my dog routinely visits. My dog gets high levels of love, care, and enrichment and is rarely left alone for more than 6 hours. I believe that animals are like children and require extensive attention, enrichment, and care to ensure that they have a wonderful quality of life.
