About: I have owned cats and dogs all of my life and can't imagine my home without them. Animals give us unconditional love, and they deserve the same in return. I have given IV treatments to ailing cats with kidney damage and experience with dispersing meds/pills by mouth. I will treat all your loved ones with the same care that I provide my own. I am semi retired, I work independently from home and have a lot of free time. I am looking for some fur babies to take care of so their guardians can feel comfortable leaving them. I will treat all dogs and cats like my own and I take their care very serious. If that means sending daily videos or pictures to their guardians to put them at ease, I am happy to do just that. I am happy to feed, water and clean pet areas as part of my home visits. I will scoop litter boxes as well. I take their health seriously and fresh water/food is a very important part of staying healthy. I find no ask unreasonable and will check in with pet parents as often as requested.

About: My name is Valentina. I'm 32 years old, I'm one of the Foster Coordinators at a local shelter and I currently own 5 pets. 2 dogs and 3 cats. I've been working at the Humane Society of North Central Florida as a Foster Coordinator for 6 years, and it has been the greatest joy of my life. I spent 40 hours a week surrounded by cats and dogs and I can confidently say your pet will be in good hands. I was born and raised in a family where we love all kinds of pets and since I have memory I've always been surrounded by them in my own home. I've had cats, dogs, fish, bunnies, chickens and I have come to learn and appreciate each animal for their uniqueness and love they give in their own way. I have cared for dogs and cats of all ages, but my favorites are baby animals. I love caring for newborns and even though is hard work, it's very rewarding in the end. My love for animals is immeasurable and your pet will ALWAYS be my priority. I will make you feel safe and secure that your pet is in capable hands :) I work at a local shelter Monday through Thursday from 8-6. My own animals are fed and walked before I leave for work but my husband, who spends a lot of time at home, makes sure to take them out to potty/play time multiple times a day. On the weekends we are always making aure we go to a dog park or any fun activity like that. My 5 pets are super friendly (I have 2 dogs and 3 cats). My home is not fenced but my pets never leave my side. I can leash walk your pet and make sure is never left unattended while outside. I also crate my pets at night or when I’m not home.

My qualifications- I’ve taken care of older cats for a neighbor, I’ve housesat for friends and family who have pets, and I volunteered at an animal shelter for over a year, where I would clean kennels, take dogs on walks, play with cats, and organize and paint the shelter. Thank you for considering me as your pet-sitter! ❤️ I have flexible hours, because I work as a door dasher, but pet-sitting/walking is my preferred job, so I can be available whenever I am needed. In my home, my dog Lola has access to food and water 24/7, and I take her outside every 4 hours or so during the day. She lets me know when she needs to go outside. In your home, I can provide any feeding/walking schedule that your pet is used to. I’m very easy-going and adaptable to anything.

The dog breeds I have cared for in my work experience have been pitbulls, standard poodles, lab/hound mixes, golden retrievers, chow mixes, chihuahuas, etc. I am currently taking a year off from working as a full-time elementary teacher, so my availability has become much more flexible in regards to accommodating future clients' schedules. As a courtesy, however, a 1 week in advance notice is always preferred, so that way I may plan accordingly!😁 I would prefer to fur-babysit at my client's home just because it is where they are most familiar, and I want them to be comfortable. I love to capture my time spent with them and send you plenty of photos to ensure they are in the best care possible!
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life ever since I was a young child. I have a special touch with all animals and provide a safe, positive environment and demeanor at all times. I am able to administer most types of medication if needed as well. I currently work full time ~32 hours weekly but my schedule is somewhat flexible so if you ever need any extra help from a quick dog walk or an overnight stay, I’m open to finding the best possible times to be of service to your furry family members :) I am very respectful and in tune to animals to make sure they are feeling comfortable and safe at all times. I provide a safe environment where animals can be themselves and roam freely but also have access to food/water and other essentials.

However, I am not open on Thursdays until after 5 PM. I do not take requests for boarding at the moment due to the unpredictable nature of my own animals.
