House Sitting in Myakka City

About: I’ve taken care of and had dogs my whole life. I’m the first person my friends and family go to when they need dog care. I’ve been a sitter for many people for many years. Animals have been my passion for many years. I work in the evenings so I have the free time to look after your precious pups. I am willing to travel as far as you need to make sure you have no worries while you’re gone. I live on 5 acres of fenced in yard to have plenty of space for your fur babies. I also have two sweet pups if your puppy wants friends. I have the ability to crate your babies if you prefer that aswell.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of any kind since i was around 13. I love them unconditionally, they bring happiness to everyone. I have my own dogs, bigger breeds, and occasionally dogsit for my sister when she’s out of town! this is my full time! so i have plenty of time to make it everywhere i need to be! i make this my top priority day in and day out! my dogs are free roam in the house, trained and well behaved. my cat is also free roam and is well behaved, and likes almost everyone! if your animals are crate trained, that’s fine! your house your rules! i always stick to what the owners prefer, like, etc. for their animal. i never go the route of sticking to my own rules, it’s not my animal, the owner knows best!

“This was the second time Eni has watched our two dogs and stayed at the house while we were away. She does a fantastic job along with excellent communication. We receive pictures of the pups and updates throughout the day. We highly recommend her and will continue to use her in the future.”

About: I've taken care of cats, dogs, and exotics for many years. Well versed in pet care for any breed and kind of animal. Big fan and friend of all pets alike. I am currently an online college student, so I have plenty of time to play and care for your furry family members, with extra love! I have a very friendly but shy chihuahua who would be separated from your furry friend in my home. I can uphold any rules you may follow in your own home for your pets as need be.

About: I've grown up my whole life with many, many farm animals including dogs and cats. I always loved the pets the most and I can't wait to meet your's! My current occupation is as a Flight Instructor, so I have a very flexible schedule (since I make my own schedules). I am normally available anytime of the week since I have the flexibility to move things around my schedule. Have you ever met a pilot that's not oriented around safety? Well guess what, I can guarantee that your pet will be left in safe, loving arms.

About: I’ve taken care of my dog of 6 years since we got him as a puppy. I trained him to potty, do tricks, and play. I walk him 2-3 times a day and take him to the dog park, dog beach, and other dog social settings. I’ve also taken care of other dogs for multiple days. I work part-time during the weekends so my availability is during the weekdays! I am also a full time college student studying Biomedical Sciences but I’m fully online during the summer. I’m very playful with pets but I always make sure to put their safety first. I also always follow special instructions for each unique pet!

“Jacqueline stayed overnight with my two cats. From our first contact she was so prompt answering messages. I’ve had other sitters and she is one of the few who actually showed up on time and was there when she said she would be. I returned to find my house in tiptop shape. I highly recommend her. She’s a real sweetheart!”

“Katie was absolutely incredible and I truly cannot recommend her enough!! From the very start, I could tell Luigi felt comfortable with her which says EVERYTHING!! The moment she got out of her car to greet us, he immediately took to her and that is not something he does with everyone. She provided so many updates and pictures which gave me so much peace of mind while we were away. I never once had to wonder how he was doing. One of the biggest things that stood out to me was her honesty. Instead of just saying everything was perfect (which other sitters have said while I knew he wasn’t perfectly fine), she shared that Luigi definitely missed us. I appreciated that more than anything because it showed how in tune she was with him. Even better, she didn’t just leave it at that. She actively worked to engage him and get him moving which is so important for a dog’s mental well being. She took him on walks, paid close attention to his needs, and truly treated him like her own. You can tell Katie genuinely cares and goes above and beyond. Luigi and I are both so grateful to have found her!!!”

“Cathy is wonderful! My dog can be a handful but she was so sweet and kind with him. She sent several pictures and updates throughout the day. We came home to a happy doggy and two happy kitties. She’s definitely going to be our go to!”

Lexi M.

“I have two large dogs and one of them is very stubborn and does not like to walk. Larissa did a great job getting them both out and took very good care of them. She sent pictures regularly and they both seemed very happy and content with Larissa. Thank you.”

Shirley M.

“William was very impressive. He sent me photos and updates on how my dogs were doing while I was away. He left the house cleaner than when I left it! Highly recommended!”

“John was the epitome of patience, kindness and caring for our senior boy. He did EVERYTHING possible to make our old man feel loved and safe. He slept on the his dog bed with him, played calming music for hours on end, gave him all the meds/blankets/pillows he needed. He changed his diapers, gave him a bath and treated Sampson like he was his own. There really aren’t words to convey how unbelievably loving and kind John was, but I’ll say this: we have a doggy camera in the house to make sure our boy hasn’t fallen and hurt himself (he’s very old and he falls now). Every time I would check the camera, John was sitting right next to our dog: talking to him, petting him and asking him what he needed. This guy is the real deal and absolutely adores animals. I wouldn’t hesitate for 1 second to have him as our sitter again.”

“Samira is just amazing! My fur babies just love her, they even cried when she left. I did not have time to do my dishes before I left and when I came home they were all washed!”

April G.

“Lily, you are a superstar. I can travel with ease and feel completely worry free knowing my babies are in your care. You send tons of pictures, and are consistent with your communication. You are so affectionate with them and you follow all instructions for their care perfectly. I’ve never been more grateful for a Pet Sitter and my babies. Absolutely love you.”

Nicole S.

“It is not easy leaving your Fur Baby and Home to a Stranger but Susan from beginning to end was professional, friendly and obviously passionate about animals and their care. Susan went above and beyond caring for our Dog and Home and we have already Booked with her again. I highly recommend Susan and feel very lucky to have found her!”

“Christine was so good with our two boys (cat and dog), she made sure she gave them both love and attention and took Enzo for nice walks. We came home to a very clean house and are so pleased with her services we intend to use her again.”

Terri V.

“Cher was absolutely wonderful watching Jäger and Bella in my home. She was reliable, communicative, and gave them plenty of love and attention. I came back to happy dogs and a tidy house, which speaks volumes. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, trustworthy sitter.”

About: I've grown up always having some around me. From cats to dogs to every farm animal, I've had it. I also took part in the FFA and 3 years of agriscience and small animal courses. I am just getting out of high school, so I am looking for something part-time that I can enjoy doing over the summer before leaving for college! I understand how important it is to have someone you trust to take care of your furry family members while you're away. I take pet safety very seriously and follow all necessary protocols to ensure that your pet is happy and healthy during their stay. This includes maintaining a clean environment, providing appropriate nutrition, and monitoring their behavior for any signs of discomfort or illness.I take pet safety very seriously and follow all necessary protocols to ensure that your pet is happy and healthy during their stay.

I understand that pets are part of the family, and we treat them as such. You can trust me to provide the love and care your pets deserve, and give you peace of mind while you're away. I will send you regular updates and photos, so you can see just how much fun your pets are having while you're gone.

About: I grew up in a household with eight cats and four dogs, my parents were big into animals. I had my own bulldog for a number of years (she passed away recently) and currently have two cats of my own. I’ve picked up more dog poop and cleaned out more cat litters than I can count over the years.. I work entirely from remote, so my availability is always open to housesit or pet sit. I can be gone weeks at a time without it being a real burden. My cats have an automatic feeder and automatic litter cleaner so I don’t have to worry about them when I go away. I also have two roommates so they help take care of them when I’m out so they don’t get lonely. I walk, clean up after, feed, groom, even bathe, client’s animals. And I have it pretty easy with my current cats, they have an automatic feeder and a litter box that cleans itself automatically. So they’re pretty easy-going.

“Dana was amazing! Our pup went on plenty of walks at all hours of the day, and looked extremely comfortable with Dana in charge. Communication was great, house was well taken care of, and most importantly our pup had a great time with her sitter. Overall great experience, would recommend”
