Pet Sitting Marion Oaks

About: What sets me apart is my lifelong experience caring for both dogs and cats of all ages, breeds, and personalities. I was raised with pets and have hands-on experience caring for dogs ranging from Boxers and German Shepherds to Terrier mixes. I understand that every pet has unique needs, energy levels, and routines, and I strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I have also completed a Leash Reactive Dog Course Certification, which has given me valuable training in understanding and safely handling dogs that may be reactive, anxious, or overstimulated on walks. This helps me provide calm, confident care while prioritizing your dog's safety and comfort. In addition, I have experience caring for cats of many breeds, including Siamese, Himalayan, Maine Coon, and both long-haired and short-haired domestic cats. I've cared for cats from playful kittens to senior companions, giving me experience with age specific needs and senior care. Whether your pet is young, energetic, shy, reactive, or in their golden years, I provide dependable, attentive care and treat every pet as if they were my own family. I currently work from home while my husband grows our family inspection business, which gives me a flexible schedule and plenty of time for walks, playtime, enrichment activities, and lots of belly rubs. Animals have always been a big part of my life. Recently, I lost my beloved cat after 17 wonderful years. While we're not quite ready to welcome another permanent pet into our family, the universe seemed to have other plans. A wounded stray cat found her way into our driveway and into our hearts. We took her in, got her the care she needed, and are now helping her heal and thrive. Caring for animals brings me so much joy, and I'd love the opportunity to provide the same love, attention, and dependable care to your pets while you're away. I provide a calm, low-stress home environment where pets receive plenty of individualized attention. Because I work from home, I'm able to give pets lots of supervision, companionship, and engagement throughout the day. Whether your pet prefers relaxing in a quiet setting or needs extra playtime and exercise, I tailor my care to their unique personality and routine to help them feel safe, comfortable, and right at home.

“She was amazing”

Pamela B.

“Jocelyn and Drew were amazing with my dogs! I went on a week long trip abroad and they handled one of my dog’s walks and had no issues. My dog doesn’t like going outside, pulls on the leash, and can be shy, but they made her feel very comfortable and confident! I would absolutely recommend their services to anyone, especially if your fur baby has some anxieties.”

About: I've been taking care of animals since I was 12. I am incredibly patient and very good at making animals feel comfortable around me! I have experience with younger dogs and seniors. I also adopted cats in 2024 and have experience caring for my kitten and older cat. I'm unemployed currently, so I pretty much have all the time in the world. I prefer later times as it gets pretty hot here, but I'm willing and ready to accommodate! I'm not planning on offering services inside my own home, but if I'm available to dogsit/check in on your pets I will do my best to follow any rules and meet the needs of your pet!

“Chloe is the best! My dog is usually nervous around people but it was like she knew her forever. Would highly recommend her, she’s very trustworthy!”

About: I provide calm, attentive care that’s especially well-suited for small dogs who thrive on consistency, gentle handling, and close supervision. I have extensive experience caring for small dogs while their owners travel, and I focus on maintaining familiar routines to reduce stress. I’m patient, observant, and comfortable with senior dogs and those who may be a bit anxious or sensitive. I pay close attention to feeding schedules, leash manners, medications when needed, and overall comfort, and I provide thoughtful updates so owners feel confident their dog is safe, happy, and well cared for. I work remotely, which enables me to do regular check-ins and play breaks with boarded cats. I send regular updates with photos to my clients. I have one cat of my own, and offer a private room, if needed, for boarded cats who aren't comfortable around unfamiliar cats. I will follow all of the pet owners requirements, and additionally keep an eye on any behavior or health changes.

“Tawatha was super awesome! She proactively communicated, was 110% reliable, and took care of our animals in a way that brought us peace of mind. Super appreciated her and will definitely ask for her to care for our animals again.”
