Pet care experience

UF Veterinary Student :)

Hi! My name is Isabel, and I am a second year veterinary student at the University of Florida. Before veterinary school, I worked as a small, equine, and exotic animal veterinary technician. I have years of hands-on experience caring for animals of all ages, sizes, and medical needs. With my veterinary background, I am comfortable caring for senior dogs, puppies, and pets with medical needs. Hello, my name's Cade. I am a recent graduate from Florida State University. Before moving to Gainesville, I was a lifeguard and certified yoga instructor. I previously had a beautiful chocolate lab who has since passed and now am the cat dad to two lovely girls. I love animals and have had many years caring for neighbors', friends', and family pets. We understand that trusting someone with your dog is a big deal, so we do our best to make you and your pet comfortable from the start. Whether your dog is high-energy or prefers the couch, we are happy to adapt to their needs and routines. We also prioritize clear communication and will keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages. We would love the opportunity to meet you and your pets!

Pets

Safety, trust & environment

We care for pets in their home by prioritizing consistency and individualized care. We know pets feel most secure in their familiar environment, so we do our best to maintain their normal routine (feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, etc). We also take the time to get to know each pet’s personality and needs to make them feel most comfortable. We treat every client’s home with respect by keeping things clean, following all care instructions, and providing regular updates. With my veterinary background, I am also comfortable monitoring for any changes in behavior or wellbeing.

Isabel is a wonderful pet sitter! She is prompt, reliable, communicative, and very loving with our two dogs. It’s such a relief to know your fur babies are in good hands when you are out of town. We absolutely recommend Isabel to anyone needing a pet sitter.

Isabell was wonderful! Batman and Skye were grateful for Isabel. She also took great care of my mini horse, Baxter and my two goats Billy and Bobby. She sent me pictures every day which was great! Isabel also found a lost dog while she was at my house and found the owner. She is an animal liver for sure!!

Isabel was extremely caring and put in the extra effort with my two cats. She stayed extra just to make sure my one cat who hides was okay. Responsible and responsive on text. I recommend her to care for your fur babies!

Isabel has been our dog sitter for a couple of years and I recommend her highly. She is fantastic with our 3 dogs. She’s consistent, reliable and not only provides for their care but spends time hanging out and giving them attention when we’re gone. The 3 of them love her and it’s great to know they get attention and belly rubs, as well as basic care, so they don’t miss us too much!!

Isabel is our absolute go-to pet sitter whenever we travel. As the proud parents of four rescue dogs, finding someone we trust with our babies is incredibly important, and Isabel exceeds every expectation. Our dogs absolutely adore her. She has the calmest, kindest, and most loving demeanor, and they are always happy and relaxed in her care. One of the things I appreciate most is how communicative she is—she consistently sends updates and photos, which gives us so much peace of mind while we’re away. As a veterinary school student, Isabel brings an extra level of knowledge and attentiveness that is invaluable. I know she would immediately recognize if something seemed off with any of our dogs and would handle the situation with care and professionalism. If you’re looking for someone who will love your pets like her own, keep you informed, and provide exceptional care, I cannot recommend Isabel highly enough. We feel incredibly lucky to have found her!

While I am attending veterinary school (8-5 Monday to Friday), I am available in the evenings and on the weekends! I am happy to watch your pet for weekend trips :) Cade is available in the mornings and afternoons as well! We would prefer to not do repeating services, since my schedule changes so much with school.
