House Sitting Monticello

“Keleigh did a great job watching over our home and our beloved Roscoe. She managed seamlessly and did not have any problems or issues. I would not hesitate to engage her again.”

About: I have approximately 3 years of experience working at an animal hospital as a vet technician and kennel technician. I also have experience working at wildlife rehab centers and a state laboratory for animal disease and pathology. Pets that I have cared for are dogs, cats, guinea pigs, rabbits, mice, ducks, fish, parakeets, pigs, mules, chickens, geese, cows. I have been the “go to” person for all family members that have pet care questions. As a teen, I walked my German shepherds every day, and took charge of providing medications like insulin and heartworm control. Fast forward 25 years later-I have cared for many animal species! Most of all, I love animals so much, and my pets are incredibly spoiled. I work full time 9-5 Monday through Friday in Tallahassee. The default available hours are shown as 3 -10pm; however, I am available for home visits and walks as early as 6 pm Monday- Friday. I have full availability for Saturdays and Sundays, and I will update my availability for holidays. I live in Monticello, but willing to commute up to 30 miles on weekends. I have a fenced 1.6 acre lot. I prefer to do home visits since pets feel safer at their own home, but they can be dropped off at my house as well. I will walk, feed, water, provide medications, have playtime and exercise, and observe for any overall health issues. And most of all spend time and comfort them while you are away

“As this was only the second time leaving my dog with someone else, I was understandably anxious. However, Deborah's attentiveness to my dog's needs made all the difference. She kept me updated on how my dog was adjusting, sharing uodates and photos. The fact that Deborah even offered to pick up and drop off my dog at my house was above and beyond what I expected. Her dedication and kindness truly made this experience fantastic. I can't recommend her enough!”

About: Hey there I’m a stay at home mom who is also lifelong animal lover and pet owner who understands what it takes to keep pets happy, safe, and comfortable while their owners are away. I have my own cat and dog at home, so I know firsthand how much routine, patience, and attention to individual personality matters — no two pets are the same. I have particular experience with senior pets and animals with anxiety — knowing how to move slowly, read body language, and create a calm, predictable environment so they feel secure rather than stressed. I’ve cared for dogs and cats through walking, sitting, and drop-in visits, and I treat every pet in my care exactly how I’d want mine treated. Whether your pet needs gentle exercise, quiet companionship, feeding, playtime, or just a calm and patient presence, I’m committed to making them feel safe and loved. Along with that I have also cared for a variety of pets, including spiders and other small animals. Services Offered: Dog walking Pet sitting Feeding and fresh water Playtime and companionship Care for cats, dogs, spiders, and other small pets Basic updates and photos while you're away Your pets are family—and we'll treat them like family too. a stay-at-home homeschooling mom, I have a very flexible schedule and am home throughout the day, allowing me to accommodate pet walks, drop-in visits, feedings, and pet sitting. . Because we are home most of the day, we can accommodate a variety of schedules and give pets the attention, care, and consistency they deserve. Safety, trust, and respect are my top priorities when caring for pets in their own homes. I understand that pets are most comfortable in their familiar environment, so I strive to maintain their normal routines and provide consistent, loving care. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding, medications, exercise, and household rules to ensure each pet's well-being.

About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of animals ever since I was 12 from dogs to cats and farm animals! I grew up with my own dogs, cats and horses along with chickens. Family and friends always relied on me to pet sit for them whenever it was needed because they knew they would be cared for just like my own! I treat them with as much love and care as if they were my own. I have lots of patience and skill with all ages of animals. I can walk, bathe, feed and play with your animals however they may need it. I currently work full time but get off around 4-5 pm daily and have most weekends off. I don’t mind stopping in to walk them in the afternoons or stay over night with them. I have 5 acres all fenced in and allow my dogs plenty of outdoor time but also willing to keep yours separated from mine if need be! My dogs are super friendly and love meeting a fellow friend.

“We have used Cher a couple times to watch and feed our dog and she has been great to work with. I appreciate that she sent pictures of our dog Max and kept us in the loop of how he is doing. As long as she is available we will continue to have her help us. Thank you!”

“Raven went above and beyond while house/pet sitting my two dogs. Medications were taken care of, enrichment toys were used, and lots of treatos were given. My dogs were way more difficult than either of us expected, and she still maintained professionalism and exceptional care. She earned the trust of my extremely anxious foster dog, and dealt with my personal dog’s jealousy. My dog *intentionally* PEED on her PHONE and Raven didn’t just immediately quit. I probably would have. She gave me multiple updates with pictures each day, and made sure I knew they were in capable hands. I was especially impressed with her honesty and transparency when there was a small mishap. She immediately notified me and asked what I wanted done, as opposed to other sitters who might’ve just hoped it didn’t become a bigger problem later. I’m sure it was nerve wracking for her, but it made me trust her immensely, knowing that I could count on her to be straightforward. I will absolutely be asking her to sit for me again, if she can ever forgive my a$$hole dog 😅”

“Andrew did an incredible job taking care of our two dogs while we were away for a long weekend. He was attentive & responsive throughout our trip & left our house absolutely spotless. We have already booked him again for our next weekend away!”

About: I’ve taken care of every kind of dog since I was about 10 years old. Throughout the years I have cared for my neighbors and family friends pets along side my own pups. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine because I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate time and attention to the pets I care for. I plan my days so that walks, feeding times, playtime, and check-ins are done consistently and on schedule. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, my priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while maintaining their normal routine as much as possible. I carefully follow the owner’s instructions for feeding schedules, medications (if needed), potty breaks, and exercise so their pet experiences as little disruption as possible. In my home, I provide a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment where pets can relax, play, and receive lots of attention. I make sure they have a comfortable place to rest, regular potty breaks, supervised playtime, and plenty of affection. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat their space with the same respect I would my own. I stick closely to the pet’s usual routine, provide walks and playtime, keep food and water fresh, and make sure the home stays tidy. I also provide updates and photos so owners can feel reassured that their pets are happy and well cared for while they’re away. My goal is always to make pets feel loved, safe, and stress-free while their owners are gone.

“Louisa did an amazing job! I have a kitty with special care/feeding instructions that require attention to detail that she followed perfectly. She also took great care of my home and provided updates on everything as I away. I could tell she genuinely cares about animals just from our initial meet & greet too. I always get so nervous leaving my cat when I go on trips but Louisa absolutely earned my trust and I will be booking with her again in the future for sure as long as she’s still pet sitting. Thank you so much again :)”

“Scarlett was great with our shy pup! She showed patience and was very caring towards Pearl. She was very communicative and sent pics and updates regularly. Added bonus, she was a great house guest! Pearl warmed up to her quickly and we would definitely book her again!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and other large and small animals since I was 10. I have also worked in a vets office which has only increased my knowledge and care giving skills for all types of animals. Neighbors, friends and family have always relied on me anytime any day of the week to care for their furry friends. I am currently working with Rover full time so I will have time to play with your pets any time of the day with no worries that they will get the care they deserve. although I live in a apartment, I am more happy to take her for a friend for a long enjoyable walk or hike so they get the enrichment they need. If staying at your home, I can be flexible with any care instructions given. I want your pet to feel as comfortable as possible!

About: Throughout my life, I have always been drawn to animals. I have grown up interacting with dogs, cats, horses, cows, chickens, and more. In 2016, my family dog, Cayson, entered my life. Through caring for him, my love for animals intensified, as well as my caretaking skills. In my career, I am a caregiver, and that definitely spills over into how I take care of animals: with love, understanding, and care. I am currently working part-time as a CNA, so my weeks are relatively flexible. I have reliable transportation and I’m willing to travel to best accommodate owners. I care for any and all pets through asking the owner very thorough questions, paying attention to detail, and extending the same love and care I have for my own pet onto them.

About: As an aspiring vet, it is my duty to ensure the health and welfare of any animal in my care. I make sure to carefully observe and notate any abnormalities while pet sitting to make sure any issues are caught early on Currently working part-time as a veterinary assistant, on my journey to come a veterinarian, pet care is my everyday life and has been for the past 5 years. I have easy access to a large dog park, and open fields so plenty of outside time is used. My home is also very spacious, plenty of roaming around space with a fenced deck for sunbathing as well

“Yara was very friendly and kept us updated with pictures.”

About: Hello! I am a teacher looking to love on animals and make some money to help pay for my wedding! I have cared for many kinds of animals/homes over the years and pride myself on building close bonds with dogs and owners alike! As a pet parent to 2 dogs and 3 cats, I know how important it is to be able to leave your fur babies with someone you can trust. My former teachers, neighbors, and family members have all entrusted me with their dearest pets with satisfaction guaranteed! I am a teacher with summers off so pet care is currently my full time job! I can arrange my schedule to include twice or three times daily care minimum. I am also experienced in working with medically fragile dogs and cats who may need extra care! I make sure that the animals not only have their basic needs met, but also give them plenty attention and love…if they want it! I also respect that each animal is unique and may want solace over snuggles. I take the time to bond with every animal and figure out what they actually need.

“Kendra is the best!!! I’m trying to rebook her again and just now figured out how to leave a review. She’s so attentive and caring. I highly recommend.”

About: I have five cats and a dog of my own. I love exploring new trails and finding new places to walk. I also have experience administering medication to pets. I grew up with a dog that needed lots of medicine. I have plenty of experience with injections, pills, and liquids. I will treat your baby like my own. I truly miss the animals I watch when I inevitably have to leave. I hope you will trust me with your baby soon! I currently work part time and I am in nursing school. I can try to make any booking work with advance notice. Please reach out and we can make it work! I am very careful with making sure harnesses are on and safe. I make sure the water and food bowl are full and nothing is out that is dangerous.

“Taylor took amazing care of our sweet Meadow while we went on vacation! She even brought her out of her shell and had her playing in her playroom. 5 stars isn’t enough for Taylor. She is sweet, trustworthy to leave your home & pet(s) with, and so caring. Thank you Taylor!”
