About: I have watched my cousins dogs and my friend‘s dogs and I love them all! I especially love playing with them and taking them on walks! I am a college student living in Lakeland during the weekdays and I come home on the weekends. I do not do anything on the weekends other than go to church. I would love to take care of your pet! I let the pets roam around in the house except for certain rooms that have anything that could harm the pet and I always have my eye on them to make sure they aren’t getting into trouble! :)

About: I’ve been raised around dogs my entire life and have hands-on experience caring for them in every stage — from playful puppies to seniors who need a little extra patience and attention. Having supported my own dogs through their later years, I understand how important gentle, attentive care is. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I work Monday through Friday from 5:30 AM to 2:30 PM, which means I’m available for early morning visits before work and have my full afternoons and evenings open for walks, drop-ins, feeding, playtime, and overnight care. Because I’m off mid-afternoon, your pet won’t be waiting all day for attention. I’m able to give them consistent, reliable care and quality time — whether that’s a calm check-in, an energetic walk, or simply extra cuddles to help them feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I will always care for your pet the way you feel most comfortable, especially in your own home. I carefully follow any instructions you leave — from feeding routines and medications to favorite toys and bedtime habits — because I know how important consistency is for their comfort and your peace of mind. If they stay in my home, they’ll be welcomed into a calm, loving environment alongside my two pets. They’ll have access to a fully fenced backyard where they can safely explore and enjoy fresh air. I’m able to separate from my cat if needed to ensure everyone feels secure and comfortable. While I’m not able to separate from my dog, he is well-socialized and used to being around other animals. My goal is always to create a safe, warm space where your pet feels cared for, understood, and at home.

About: I’ve taken cared of my neighbors , family , and friends pets. I love animals of any kind. I will gladly take care of them with what you want. Give me instructions and I’ll do it. I’m willing to do evening walks after 5:30pm on weekdays if anyone needs I know it’s not set on my calendar. I also love photography so if you’re wanting me to take a couple of pictures for you, I sure can do that. I need to practice so the photos would be free of charge :) I currently work at Merritt Animal Clinic in Eustis from 8 am to 5pm on weekdays except Thursdays and weekends. I can do walks after 5:30 on weekdays but anytime on Thursdays and weekends if I’m not too busy. I will be happy working with your fur babies 😁 I have a male dog. I cuddle with Toby everyday. My yard is fenced and they are watched 24/7. I will wrestle and play with dogs bigger than me as if I’m a dog. Cats are amazing to lay with as well. I only now have a Chihuahua and he’s very needy so any needy animal won’t be a problem for me at all. I love you snuggle up and play with the pets.

“Kayla took great care of our cat snowflake. Kayla did check-ins in the morning while we were on vacation, and it warmed my heart to see how happy she was in the pictures and videos. Kayla's check in notes were detailed and comprehensive, and we'll definitely try to book her again the next time we're out of town.”

About: I have grown up and been around dogs my entire life. Before my kids were born my dogs were my kids and I treat them as family members. My dogs would sleep in my bed and I would take them everywhere I possibly could because they were my best friend. I feel that all dogs love their owners unconditionally as long as you treat them appropriately. A concept that was brought to my attention a long time ago regarding dogs is that they might not be the most exciting part of our day, but we are the most exciting part of theirs and they look forward to seeing us every day. I wake up every day appreciating that fact and my dogs have always return the favor I work close to home and I’m off on weekends. I have a lot of flexibility from my regular job to facilitate any pet need. I’ve always treated any of my pets like my children. They get a lot of attention, exercise, and play time. Pets that I have watched over for friends and family get sad when they leave my house because they have had such a good time.

About: I’ve been caring for cats and dogs most of my life and enjoy their companionship. I have been a pet grandma for 17 years and love every minute. I am retired and enjoy painting and spending time with my family and of course the fur babies, but my schedule can be very flexible! Whatever the client considers appropriate to provide a safe and comfy environment for their pet I absolutely have no problem implementing in my daily care for them.

“Ann, did a phenomenal job ! Thank you for everything.”

“She was great with our two young kitties! Sent us daily photos and even brought in our amazon packages.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was 8 years old. My family and friends have always relied on me to feed or take care of their pets when they are away traveling. I have previous experience working as a volunteer tech vet. I have a full time job M-F 7am-4pm. In the afternoons I am available to walk dogs. Weekends are more flexible. We can go over a schedule that would best accommodate your pet individually. I live in a small apartment, it has accesible green areas and a dog park near by. No dogs or cats living with me at the moment. I’m very responsible and will take any measure necessary to make the owner feel safe with their decision.
