About: I have 10 years of experience as a Vet Tech and currently reside in Venice, FL. Spending my early childhood years learning animal husbandry with my family’s many beloved rescued Rottweilers easily solidified my passion for exceptional pet care! As a trained veterinary technician, animals have always been part of my routine, between morning walks, feedings, medication schedules, or simply spending quality time. I find comfort and purpose in caring for animals, and I plan my days around their needs so they feel calm, loved, and secure. I respect each pet’s unique preferences and routine. I keep a calm, clean environment, offer consistent feeding, hydration, and medication when needed, and ensure they get plenty of affection and enrichment. In a client’s home, I follow their instructions closely to keep the pet’s world familiar and stress-free.

“Connor was fantastic with our spunky 100 chocolate lab! Connor was on time every visit and made sure Bowie was well taken care of! I highly recommend Connor with your pets while you are gone! You will come home to a happy pup! Thanks Connor we will def be using you again very soon!”

“Nate was great! We booked on short notice and have never used Rover before so needless to say we were extremely nervous!!! Nate responded quickly and came by that evening to meet the dogs and us. The dogs loved him and after talking with us for a few minutes we felt a lot more comfortable in leaving our dogs for him to watch. Everything went great and we were pleased with the service. Will definitely be using Nate again!!”

About: Hi there! I am very good with all kinds of pets; big ones, little ones, old ones you name it! I have been told by everyone who knows me that I just light up when I'm around animals. I have owned dogs and cats my entire life and have the sweetest maltipoo of my own. I will love to care for your babies as if they were mine. Please understand I would like to check on mine as well. Thank you! Your dogs (or cats) will be in the best hands with me I can promise that! I will update with photos any time you would like I know it’s hard to be away from our pets. I’ve volunteered at many animal shelters as well and can promise your pets will be as happy as ever with me. Look forward to meeting you and them soon :) I am a full time server as well as a student so my schedule varies and can be long hours of being away from the home. I will care for your pets as if they were mine. I like to get to know their routine so we can keep it as close to normal as possible while you’re gone so that it goes smoothly while you’re away. I can update you with plenty of photos or videos if that is more comforting for you as well.

About: My parents were the co-founders of Southeastern Guide Dogs in Palmetto. My first home had a kennel attached to it, and my first loves were animals. I have personally trained over 20 dogs (my own, friends, and family), as well as pet sat for over 20 years (friends and family). Your animals will be treated as my own, with unconditional love and attention. We currently have a pack of 5, 3 dogs, and 2 cats, all rescues. I am currently looking to begin my own pet-sitting service. I am eager, ambitious, kind, and mature. I will send pictures, texts, and updates throughout the length of time I am caring for your fur-babies. I believe all animals should be treated with kindness, genuineness, love, and understanding. Choose me as your go-to pet sitter, walker, or check-in person and you will not be disappointed.

“Super friendly and very flexible. Did her best with my puppy last minute (despite him refusing to want to go on an actual walk ?). 10/10 recommend”

About: Growing up on a farm as an only child, I learned early how to bond with animals. I understand them and they understand me. We always have a personal connection. I’m a work at home insurance broker. I make my own schedule and take plenty of breaks for my furry friends. My office door is always open. Literally! I take the responsibility of taking care of other people’s pets as seriously as I do taking care of my own. I’ve taken care of puppies, seniors and even special-needs animals and all of my owners have been happy with many repeat customers.
