7. Ashleigh W.
About: I’ve been around pets my entire life at some point I even want to be a veterinarian, but you grow up and things change. I still would love to take care and help out whoever I can. I’m pretty much open to any and everything and no pets too big or too small to be helped. I currently work two jobs 7 AM to 1:30 PM and I work my second job only Wednesdays and Sundays, but I am available any other days of the week and just send a text and I could probably fit anything into my schedule How I care for pets in my home or in clients homes is making sure their pets feel safe and comfortable and have a very clean and energetic environment if needed every pet’s personality is different so I go into meeting a pet very calmly and making sure I can gain their trust Whilst also being very patient

“Mona is excellent at caring for animals. I went up north and she took great care of our dog, cat, and hamster, as well as our house.

She has a great love for animals and it shows! I would highly recommend Mona in caring for your pets!”

12. Samantha M.
About: With two years of hands-on pet care experience, I specialize in caring for a wide range of animals, from puppies to senior pets. At home, I have a playful chocolate lab whom I've trained, along with a cat who keeps me on my toes. I’ve worked with both large and small dogs, offering everything from daily walks to overnight pet sitting, always ensuring they receive the care, attention, and exercise they need. Whether it’s training, playtime, or just companionship, I’m dedicated to providing a safe and loving environment for every pet I care for. I’m currently going to school at the University of Florida, but I have a very flexible schedule. I am able to provide services in the morning, afternoon, or night on most days. I have a crazy chocolate lab at home, so I am no stranger to energetic large animals. At home I love to provide a loving and safe environment for any pet I am caring for. I like to keep routine for the animal to limit any stress on the animal. I am expereinced at caring for and walking animals of all ages and sizes.

My aussies are very weary of strangers but took right to her which is rare.”

About: I’m a trainer who specializes in basic obedience but also has experience with: Puppies, service dogs, senior dogs, large and small dogs, positive reinforcement only, and behavior modification. My boarding options do include cultivating training plans if it’s in the owners interest. My work is close to home, so even if I’m away I’m close by. My pets stay in a large open cage in the nighttime and they come out to play in the daytime. Depending on your requests and the preferences of your animal I can accommodate each pets needs.
16. Don T.
“Don is a great caregiver for fur babies! He is knowledgeable and caring. He gives extra attention and is very reliable. My cats love him, even my crazy cat with anxiety. I have used pet sitters that don’t show up on schedule or speed feed, but Don makes sure the cats are emotionally cared for as well.”
17. Amy K.
“Amy has a kind heart and has a special place in it for animals. She has raised four children and ran a daycare business out of her home for over 12 years! Sometimes she had 20 kids happily running around yikes!!! She would be a great asset to any animal and their family, she is trustworthy and loyal. I would recommend Amy for any job!”
18. Aileen L.
About: I have worked at a dog & cat veterinary clinic in Palm Beach and Loggerhead Marinelife Center in the sea turtle hospital. I just graduated with my master’s in coastal environmental management from Duke University. I am an upcoming PhD candidate in zoology at the University of Florida. I've cared for dogs my entire life for neighbors, friends, and family. I worked at the Philadelphia Zoo throughout high school. Throughout college, I've had animal rehabilitation internships and have given emergency care to exotic wildlife. I TA a few courses throughout the week, but I am very flexible overall. I am also able to dog or cat sit on weekends regularly. I would love to take your pets out for walks or play with them outside to make sure they are happy and healthy. I have experience administering medication, and through my time in vet clinics, I have been exposed to shy, high-energy, and special needs animals.
19. Helen Teresa C.
“I would like to recommend Teresa to pet sit for you. We both volunteered at a local animal rescue which housed over 20 dogs at any given time and she would show up and take care of the dogs, cleaning up behind them, feeding, giving baths and playing with them. We could always count on her to be punctual, never missed a day and she would always bring treats for the dogs. She loved on them as if they were her own. And what really impressed me was her way of tending to a few of the dogs that other volunteers were unsure of - Teresa would very carefully get their trust and make friends with them quickly. We would take them out of the compound for daily walks and Teresa always went further than I did, giving her dogs a little extra time. Be sure, if she is taking care of your animals, they will have her undivided attention and care. Also, she grew up on a farm, so she knows about other animals as well. I have 6 cats myself and will use her for our next vacation.”
20. Kelly Y.
“This woman is amazing with dogs , she treats them with so much care. And she is great at giving them baths too and a amazing walker I’m so glad I found her.”
