Cat Sitting Micanopy

About: I have had my own dogs and cats my whole life and currently have one dog and one cat. I worked at an animal shelter through high school with all kinds of dogs and cats and am comfortable with pretty much anything they can throw at me. Sometimes accidents happen and it’s ok and sometimes they get scared when new people are around which is totally understandable. I’m very comfortable being patient with any animal who needs a little extra love and understanding. I am currently a full time student and usually my day is pretty open on any day I don’t have class and in between my classes. I have two pets of my own who I get up early to take care of before class and always make sure I’m home to take care of after class. Weekends that I’m not visiting family are usually completely free as well. In a client’s home, the most important thing for any nervous pet will be respecting boundaries. I have a nervous girl dog and girl cat so I totally understand when they are a little hesitant to new people. But if they are sociable and want plenty of love I can absolutely give that too. I am very good at reading their body language and actions to determine what they want or need in the moment and will absolutely respect that their space if they want that.

About: I have been caring for dogs since I was a teenager! I have ample experience with caring for senior dogs, giving walks, feeding, outdoor play, bathing, and nail clipping. I absolutely love all dogs, and I have experience with caring for big and small dogs alike! I am a graduate student at the University of Florida, so I have flexibility with my days to check in on your pets! I am open to visiting your home to care for your pet or bringing your pet into my own home to care for them! I do not travel much, so I largely have an open schedule. I will happily send you photos of your pets daily! I live in an apartment complex with ample courtyard space for dogs to walk and play. There is also a nearby dog park to take any dogs that I care for. I also have a lovely fenced in back porch that I often let my cat sit outside on. I am willing to visit and/or stay in your home with your animals as well! I will follow all instructions that you leave me, and I will ensure the safety of your pets while they are in my care.

About: I’ve grown up around both cats and dogs, and my love for animals has always been one of the few things I’ve been completely certain about. That passion led me into the veterinary field, where I’ve now worked for the past 3 years caring for animals of all breeds, ages, and personalities. Through my experience in veterinary medicine and boarding facilities, I’m comfortable caring for multiple pets at once while still making sure each animal receives individual attention, patience, and compassion. I’m also trained in administering oral medications, injections, and other basic medical care when needed. Working closely with animals every day has taught me how important trust, routine, and gentle handling are for pets while their owners are away. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, senior, or needs extra attention, I strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for like they’re part of my own family. I work weekdays 9am–5pm, but I prioritize pet care before and after work, ensuring pets receive attention, playtime, feeding, medications, and loving care. I’m also available on weekends. In my client’s home, I follow each pet’s normal routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. This includes feeding on schedule, providing fresh water, litter box cleaning, walks or playtime, and administering any medications as instructed. I also make sure to give plenty of attention, affection, and calm companionship so pets feel safe while their owners are away. I keep the home clean, respect all instructions, and provide updates so owners have peace of mind.

“As a business owner in the boarding and dog industry myself, trusting someone to stay in my home and care for my dogs was a huge deal for me — especially since our dogs have quite a few senior and special-care needs. Jonathan absolutely exceeded every expectation. We are definitely “those” pet owners with a million instructions wanting everything done just right, and he handled all of it with patience, kindness, and professionalism. His communication was incredible. Any time I reached out, he responded within minutes, which gave me so much peace of mind while we were away. It’s very rare to find people you genuinely trust with your home and your animals, but he made the entire experience stress-free. The dogs were well cared for, happy, and all of their special needs were accommodated without issue. Honestly, this experience changed things for us. For the first time, we actually feel like we can travel and enjoy vacations without worrying the entire time. We’re already planning our next trip knowing we have a person we can truly rely on. Highly, highly recommend Johnathan Absolute gems.”

About: I’ve been caring for animals for over 16 years. I am most comfortable with cats and small or senior dogs, but have experience with all breeds and sizes. I have past experience volunteering with a vet clinic and working with community cats. I am comfortable and experienced caring for cats and dogs with injuries, illnesses, and age related health issues. I am able to administer medication orally. I feel very strongly about providing a clean and safe environment for your pet. I’ll always be sure to clean up any happy little accidents that may happen. Being away from our beloved animals is hard, but you can trust they are in good hands with me. Providing regular picture and video updates is my pleasure. Please never hesitate to tell me what I can do to help give you peace of mind and assure you that your pet is receiving the best care possible. I greatly look forward to meeting and working with you and your furry friends! I am currently self-employed so I have plenty of time to drop in for visits or do overnight stays. I’m available weekdays and weekends. M-F my day time availability does vary due to appointments, but my mornings from 7am-9am are always open and I have open availability from 5pm onwards. During a drop in visit I will provide your cat or dog with food, water, and any medications. If the visit does not require that, I check all food and water sources to make sure they clean and full. The litter boxes will be checked and cleaned. If there are any accidents or messes, I will clean them up. I provide affection and enrichment for your animals. I will play with them, groom them, and provide things like catnip and treats (with your approval, of course). If you’re worried about your pet getting bored or lonely between visits, I can turn on some Pet TV! During visits I like take pictures and videos and provide you with those, as well as text updates. I’m happy to base my communication off of your preferences. If you’d like a bit more privacy and quiet, we can discuss when it would be most appropriate to contact you. If you want daily updates that’s no problem at all! I provide all these services during overnight stays as well. If you have specific requests regarding care for your pet, I’m happy to adhere to them. Please don’t hesitate to reach out with any questions!

About: I have been a dog owner for the majority of my life and have provided reliable care to my friends’ pets for about 5 years. I have experience caring for puppies as well as multiple animals at once. I am a student at the University of Florida, but I have a mostly open schedule. I’m available all day on weekends, every weekday morning before 10 AM, after 11:30 AM every Monday, Wednesday and Friday, and after 5 PM on Tuesdays and Thursdays. I plan to maintain a safe environment for any animal, and I will cater the experience to each pet and their individual needs. It is important to me that your pet feels as comfortable as possible, whether that be in your home or mine. I will care for your pet according to your desired schedule to ensure they experience care and consistency even when away from their loving owner.

About: I treat every pet like they’re my own because I know how much they mean to you. I don’t just “watch” animals I take the time to learn their routine, personality, and little quirks so they feel comfortable, safe, and genuinely cared for while you’re away. I’ve worked with both puppies and senior pets, so I understand how different their needs can be. Whether it’s helping reinforce potty training and leash habits for younger dogs, or giving extra patience, gentle care, and medication support for older pets, I adjust to what your pet needs. You’ll never be left wondering how things are going. I send regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and in good hands. At the end of the day, my goal is simple: Give your pet a stress free, loving experience and give you total peace of mind. Throughout the week, I stay flexible so I can accommodate different routines, whether it’s early morning visits, evening checkins, or multiple visits per day. I also build in time for updates, so pet owners always know how their pet is doing. Since I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, it’s not just a task, it’s something I look forward to, making it easy to give each pet the care and attention they deserve. I provide care based on what makes each pet most comfortable, whether that’s in my home or yours. In a client’s home, I stick closely to your pet’s normal routine feeding, litter box cleaning, playtime, and quiet companionship, so they feel safe in their own space. I’m respectful of your home and keep everything clean and consistent.

“With Gabrielle’s experience as a vet tech for over 5 years, we were delighted to meet her. We have 2 senior dogs, one having just gone through major surgery, so when we get through these initial recovery weeks, we look forward to calling upon her for watching our precious fur babies.”

About: Im been working as both an veterinary assistant and technician for about 7 years. With some occasional dog walking and sitting throughout that. I’m currently going to veterinary school as well Im currently in vet school, so my hours are a little sporadic I’m mainly available after hours and during the weekends. But of course I can always find ways to work around your schedule. Im fear free certified, meaning I’m a big advocate for keeping pets stress/anxiety free. We can communicate on your pets special needs or make sure they feel comfortable.

“Taylor’s daughter, Tessa took care of our dogs. She was so good with them, very punctual and great communication. We will definitely be using her again.”

Jennifer H.

“Kate was great and I will definitely be using her again in the future! She responds quickly, is very understanding, and was available for me in a pinch. A lot of people are intimidated by Geno's size, and he still very much has a lot of "puppy energy" in him, so it's not always easy to find someone who embraces a big furry dog. Her drop in visit was perfect, and Geno was thrilled!”

Stephanie L.

“Alfonsina was amazing. She took great care of my puppy even though he is very energetic and playful. I definitely recommend her services and will definitely use her again.”

About: I grew up surrounded by my pets, and when I came to the US for grad school I was at least relieved to know that they are with my family, in safe hands. They are 4 crazy dogs, ranging from seniors to young adults now. I miss them so much and will love spending time with your pets here, while also making some extra cash to send goodies to mine and my family. I will follow all your instructions and I'll love every second I get o spend with them. I cannot take them to my apartment at the moment, because my landlord doesn't allow pets, but I can go to your houses to take proper care of them as needed. Looking forward to hear from you and your amazing pets! I'm a PhD Student, working only on my research. My schedule is very flexible, and most of the times, I only need my computer to be able to work, which will allow me to work around your pets schedule. Unfortunately, the apartment where I live here doesn't allow pets, but I'm willing to go to their homes to feed them, play with them, take them out for walks, or anything as instructed by their owners.
