📍 SRQ’s #1 Luxury Pet Sitter 🐾

Pet care experience

✅ SPECIALIZING IN: HOTEL SITTING FOR VACATIONERS 🏖️ || ONBOARD YACHT PET SITS 🛥️ || CARING FOR ANXIOUSLY ATTACHED ANIMALS 🐾 || SPECIAL NEEDS ANIMALS 🐕‍🦺🦮 || YOUNG PUPPIES 🐶 || GERIATRIC PUPS 👵🏻🐩 || HYPER ACTIVE ANIMALS 🏃🏼‍♀️💨 || MY HOUSE HAS A SHADED AND FENCED YARD WITH DOGGY DOOR 🚪 🤙🏼 As a long time pet parent, I understand how difficult it can be to leave your angel with a new person. I’m here to put you at ease & provide peace of mind when it comes to your baby receiving the love they deserve! 24/7 care or solitary stays are services I provide for additional charge, and if your animal is needing that and/or cannot be around other animals- it is critical that you bring that up to me in the booking. 👆🏼

I found Tori last minute as my regular pet sitter canceled on the last minute and I believe everything happens for a reason, Tori is the best and she is now my new pet sitter. She kept me updated with text messages, photos and videos. My frenchie puppy is special needs and has health issues but I was so comfortable leaving her in Tori’s care. I highly recommend her.

Tori quickly became an integral part of our family after the first time we booked her to watch our pups. Her genuine love, unwavering dedication, and personalized care for our dogs, Max and Daisy, exceeded all expectations. We felt at ease knowing they were in her capable hands, especially with us being new to town and probably over cautious about who we leave our babies with, and still she blew all expectations out of the water. We are forever grateful for Tori's exceptional care during our long trip and look forward to her spending more time with our pups in the future. We wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone in search of a trustworthy and compassionate dogsitter in Lakewood Ranch. Tori truly became an extended family member in the last few weeks, and we cannot thank her enough for the love she showered upon Max and Daisy. Seriously the only complaint we could have is that Rover didn’t allow us to tip her more than 20%!! If you’re on the hunt for an all around amazing dog sitter, you’re in the right place.

Theo always has the best time with Tori! I can truly enjoy a trip knowing that he is being spoiled beyond what he’s used to at home. She keeps me updated regularly and I’m able to rest easy without any mom trip guilt!!!! Tori truly goes above and beyond!!

👋🏼 About me: Since I was a little girl I've found joy in providing love, care, and support to any animal I could, but there was one experience that was life changing for me. When I was a young gymnast I had a bad fall on the beam that landed me in the ICU for a week. 🏥 On my last day at the hospital we had dog therapy where dogs of all shapes and sizes came in to lift our spirits. 🦮 That day my heart for animals tripled in size. Their incredible ability to lift spirits, and their selfless unwavering love is incomparable. A few weeks later after I was discharged we brought home a puppy from the litter of my favorite golden retriever therapy dog. My whole world changed. Learning to train and practice patience with a very young puppy is a transformative experience. 🥹💕 That puppy grew into the kindest most gentle golden retriever… and just like his momma, he went on to lift spirits and provide hope to people in the community who needed it most. 🙏🏼 NOW: As an adult I have fostered many animals, both dogs and cats alike. I like to volunteer at local humane society’s as often as my schedule allows, and I use my online presence to help rehome local animals and save dogs on the euthanasia list from being put down by matching them with the perfect forever family. 🏡🐶🐾👨‍👩‍👧‍👦

Information Tori S. would like to know about your pet

⚠️ Please let me know if there are any pertinent concerns about your pet such as reactivity, resource guarding, triggers, or just their favorite treat! When possible, for overnights I prefer to have a complimentary 30 minute meet and greet! Its important for me to know their social preferences so I can always make sure they are in a safe, comfortable and nurturing environment that suits them and their needs. 24/7 care is a service I offer for an upcharge if needed, and I need to know if this is something your animal requires at the time of booking so I can schedule and plan for providing 24/7 care. ⚠️

A typical day

My home had a cute fenced yard, even fully equipped with a doggy door so dog’s always have optional access to potty outside regardless of our walk daily walk schedule. My community has a dog park and beautiful trails that are great for long walks, and even a nearby park requiring membership for access to a special puppy swim area for all the water pups out there! Puppy movie nights are a given during boarding. There are a ton of cool places nearby to sniff all the smells, swim in the designated doggy safe areas, and go for long walks in the Lakewood Ranch area. If your pet is reactive or timid though, no worries- we can be homebodies in the safety of your home or my own which has a shaded and fenced in yard. Communication is key so boundaries and expectations are clearly discussed prior to booking start times.

When possible for overnight services, I like to host a complimentary 30 minute meet and greet with you and your animal prior to the needed dates (boarding, dropins or housesitting) where expectations, safety precautions, temperament, routines, food tolerances, behaviors and preferences are all discussed. This sets the table for your animal to have a fabulous and SAFE time with me (their new favorite sitter) and helps YOU to feel ease of mind during your time away from them.
