House Sitting Manasota

“Laura did a great job with our dogs. She did a great job at communication and was very prompt in her replies. Our dogs loved her, and seemed very sad when we returned and she left. She administered pet medication well and Otto seems to be much better at bringing the ball back to us when playing fetch. Would positively hire again.”

“Holly and Jace stayed at my home for four nights to care for my one-year-old kitten, Stevie, who can be quite a handful. Holly sent photos with sweet notes about how he was doing and how much they loved him, so I always felt in the loop. I felt completely comfortable the whole time and would hire them again in a heartbeat. Highly recommended!!!!”

“Lynda has been a wonderful dog sitter for two of our recent out of town trips. She is respectful to our home, communicates timely, and our pups, a 10 year old greyhound and 3 year old terrier mix, are well cared for while we our gone. We will definitely be contacting her first for any future situations.”

About: Anyone who knows me would first say, I have so much passion for Dogs and cats. They will be so well cared for in my hands. I work for home about 3 hours a day so I have plenty of time for my passion. Your pet will have the best day with me. I have a large screened in yard and we will take walks on leash as you would like. Or if I watch them at your home whatever you would like me to do I will do.

“Catlyn was awesome! She did really great with my dog who was struggling with some scary thunderstorms. I never had to ask for updates! She sent lots of pictures and my house was spotless coming back home to. Totally will re-book!”

About: I’ve always had an innate love for animals and have lucky to grow up caring for dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to sweet senior dogs. 🐾 I understand that every dog has their own personality, needs, and routine, and I strive to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I have experience working with puppies, helping them learn good habits, build confidence, and develop basic manners through patience, consistency, and positive reinforcement. I also understand that senior dogs often need extra attention, a gentler approach, and care tailored to their comfort and energy levels. Whether your pup needs playtime, help reinforcing training, daily walks, or your senior companion needs a slower-paced routine and extra cuddles, I’m happy to provide attentive, loving care. ❤️ I treat every dog as if they were my own and want every pet parent to feel confident knowing their furry family member is in caring, trustworthy hands. My goal is to make your time away easier by keeping your dog happy, comfortable, and well cared for! I’m currently in nursing school two days a week, but I’m available the other five days to give your pets plenty of love, attention, and care! My priority is to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved, whether I’m caring for them in my home or yours. 🐾 I follow each pet’s usual routine, including feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and any special instructions you provide. I tailor my care to each dog’s age, personality, and needs. For puppies, I provide patience, supervision, frequent potty breaks, and positive reinforcement to help encourage good habits. For senior dogs, I take a gentler approach, allowing plenty of rest, keeping walks at a comfortable pace, and giving them extra attention and affection. I make sure pets have access to fresh water, a clean and safe environment, and plenty of love and companionship. I’m happy to reinforce existing training and follow your preferred care routines to help your pet feel at home. I also love keeping pet parents updated with messages and photos so you can enjoy peace of mind while you’re away. ❤️ Every pet is family to me, and my goal is to make sure your furry friend feels happy, secure, and cared for every step of the way!

About: I have 10 years of experience as a Vet Tech and am currently in Venice. 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.

“This was our first time using Eni for an overnight stay with our pups. She was fantastic! Her communication along with pictures were great. I will definitely be utilizing Eni in the future as our dogs and home were in excellent hands!”

About: hey! 🐾 My name is Hannah and I’m 26 years old. I am an animal lover with a background in psychology and animal behavior. I currently work as a Registered Behavioral Technician for kiddos with behavioral needs in Sarasota County Schools and often volunteer as a dog walker at Suncoast Humane Society! I love getting to know every dog’s unique personality, whether they’re playful puppies, energetic adults, shy pups who need a little extra patience, or sweet seniors who prefer a slower pace. I’m attentive to each dog’s individual needs and enjoy providing walks, playtime, enrichment, cuddles, and companionship. I’m also comfortable administering medications and following special care instructions. Senior dogs hold a special place in my heart thanks to my soul dog, Sparkie, who passed away in 2024 at 16 years old. ❤️ Caring for him through his senior years gave me personal experience supporting dogs with arthritis, chronic pain, and mobility limitations. I’m happy to provide that same patience and thoughtful care to any dog who needs a little extra attention! I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member. I’ll treat your pet with love, respect their routine, follow your instructions, and keep you updated with photos and messages while you’re away. My goal is for you to feel confident that your pup is in caring, attentive hands! **Availability 🗓️** I’m fully available on weekends and available for weekday walks Monday–Friday after 4 PM. Have a special request or need a different time? Feel free to message me! I’m happy to discuss exceptions and find a time that works for you and your pup. 🐶❤️ I am entirely free on Saturday and Sunday. M-F I am available after 4 pm. This is subject to change, please message with requests. From personal experience, I can empathize that leaving our furry friends can be an intimidating experience. However, I will do everything in my power to give your pet the same love, attention, and care that you would. I will actively communicate with you and ensure that my quality of care is nothing short of exceptional.

“Katie was absolutely incredible and I truly cannot recommend her enough!! From the very start, I could tell Luigi felt comfortable with her which says EVERYTHING!! The moment she got out of her car to greet us, he immediately took to her and that is not something he does with everyone. She provided so many updates and pictures which gave me so much peace of mind while we were away. I never once had to wonder how he was doing. One of the biggest things that stood out to me was her honesty. Instead of just saying everything was perfect (which other sitters have said while I knew he wasn’t perfectly fine), she shared that Luigi definitely missed us. I appreciated that more than anything because it showed how in tune she was with him. Even better, she didn’t just leave it at that. She actively worked to engage him and get him moving which is so important for a dog’s mental well being. She took him on walks, paid close attention to his needs, and truly treated him like her own. You can tell Katie genuinely cares and goes above and beyond. Luigi and I are both so grateful to have found her!!!”

About: I have taken care of dogs all my life. From Black labs to Pitbulls amd Boxers I love a silly dog! I will happily take care of any dog and give them all the love and attention they need! I'm pretty free every day so far so if you need a sitter or walker feel free to message me and I will do what I can to be over! I follow by whatever the owner tells me! I do tend to spoil animals with settings, cuddles, and plenty of playtime! I hope to learn each animal I meet and keep them happy while taking care of them!

About: I have traveled around the world and cared for all kinds of animals (including farm animals). I love animals and they love me (since I was a child). I am caring, genuine and trustworthy. I am responsible and respectful and would be honored to take care of your furbaby. My schedule is flexible at the moment so I can be available any day of the week, including weekends. Just reach out and let me know what you need. I care for pets as instructed by the owner, but always with kindness and awareness. I know it is a huge responsibility so I am present when I am with the pet on walks, not distracted on the phone, etc.

About: Growing up we had a family dog, Camden, and I was in charge of feeding and walking her. She slept with me & cuddled each night. I have dog sat for family, friends, and as a side job for over the last 10 years. Most dog sitting jobs have been 1+ week in length. I currently work remotely with flexible hours, so I can meet your needs with the times your pet needs to be taken care of. I can spend ample time playing with your pups! I will follow the typical rules and schedule you have set up for your dog. I can easily crate a dog if necessary. On walks I will ensure your dog gets plenty of activity and be cautious if meeting other dogs- the safety and comfort of your dog is most important to me!

“Jamie did great job of taking care of our large dogs. We could tell when we got home when the dogs kept going back and checking to see if she was still here..Lol…We would definitely recommend Jamie she is very responsible and great with dogs.”
