Pet care experience
I am a trained pet care technician, having volunteered with a Humane Society for more than 6 years and trained in the concierge department of a large canine boarding facility. I live in Dunnellon, Florida, where I can also accept dogs from the same family for boarding. For housesitting I travel up to three hours, if the job involves at least 10 consecutive days. I During the time I am at your home, I focus on your pets completely, be it a puppy, elderly or sickly dog(s). I usually do not leave your house, except for a quick run to the food store, but also that depends on the situations. Some dogs are not good being left alone and need someone by their side 24/7. That's me! I have been sitting pets for more than 25 years and know how to make them spend a stress-free and enjoyable time in their own familiar surroundings. Being well informed about their needs in terms of medication, nutrition, lifestyle, training, exercise, and cuddle time helps me to make sure your dog feels happy even when you're gone. Apart from having prepared and dispensed medication at a boarding facility for dogs, I used to volunteer at an Animal Clinic. This afforded me additional experience for pets with special needs. PLEASE NOTE: My own well-trained senior dog accompanies me on most of my housesitting stays. My repeat clients were always happy to see him, due to his calm and gentle demeanor. Should your pets not tolerate other animals, he also enjoys staying in a separate room. I am available full time and overnights, as well as on the weekends, although I may often be booked already. Therefore, please send me your request early, and let us set up a Meet & Greet as soon as possible. My service area focuses on central Florida, from Dunnellon, to Ocala, to Orlando, Spring Hill and all the way to Gainesville. Tampa also belongs to the service area. We will discuss the needs of your animal(s) during our first meeting, which in some cases has to be by phone calls and online conferencing. I am excited to hear from you: Every dog and cat is a unique animal who deserves special care and attention.
Reviews
This was the second time Inge stayed with our boys, Finn and Tonic, and just like the first time, she was wonderful! Our boys love when she and her pup, Julian, come to stay as they all have become best friends. Thank you for taking such great care of our boys and home while we were away!
We were VERY pleased with Inge's pet sitting services. She kept us updated with pictures and notes of how my pets were doing while we were gone which made our day! She is very knowledgeable about animals and taking care of their needs. I would definitely have Inge care for them again and can't wait to plan another vacation knowing they are in such good hands! Thanks SOOO much Inge! You are the BEST!
Inge was amazing, caring and went above and beyond. I highly recommend her to anyone.
We received fantastic service and great communication. Could not be more pleased with having Inge care for our two pets. Thank you!

Information Inge D. would like to know about your pet
You will tell me all about your pet's special needs and preferences, and we will set up a schedule together in terms of walking, playtime, feeding, or belly rubs. If you want to discuss certain issues prior to our first meeting, we can have a phone call or video chat.
A typical day
Depending on the dogs preference, we are going to explore his or her neighborhood. There are so many exciting scents all along the path. I care for dogs and cats of all ages: puppies, kittens, energetic, laid-back, elderly and sickly fur kids. I can also give advice to new dog parents on topics, such as training, feeding, or walking.
