Pet Sitting Myakka City

About: I’ve had several years of personal and professional animal care experience as a kennel technician, dog daycare host and vet technician assistant in the animal hospital atmosphere. Not employed with a full time job currently, pretty open with availability at this time. I do plan on returning to a part time position soon Pets will always be walked on a leash with constant supervision. Can offer long dog walks, play time at the local dog park, and spa days.

About: I have been working with pets since 2023! I have done everything from walking dogs at the Humane Society to pet sitting to working at my current job which is a Pet boarding facility! I love animals and am so excited to get to know your pets! I work part time at a dog boarding facility so I’m available most weekends and most weekdays to walk dogs and do drop ins! I have experience walking dogs of all shapes and sizes! I love all breeds as well as all cats! Pets are my passion and I’d love to meet your pets!

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 have been dog sitting for my neighbors for a couple of years now and I have a German Shepherd so no dog scares me:) Just graduated college and trying to make some extra income:) I miss having a dog and I want would love to dog sit or walk your pup! If they stay with me we have a dog park in my neighborhood that they can run around and I like on a lake that has trails so we can do laps around there

“We love Channing! She is reliable, dependable, and trustworthy. She always sends us pictures of our fur bab. to help release any worry we have while we travel. We would recommend her to anyone 😊”

About: I have experience in taking care of the smallest of critters to large beasts. I grew up on multiple acres and had the chance to take care of cats, dogs, horses, chickens, everything and anything. I am a kind soul who will do anything I can for any furry guests. I have watched dogs and cats all over the states. I watch them in my home and also don't mind being mobile if needed. I am currently working from home. I am able to take care of animals needs throughout the day or night. I am able to engage all hours of the day. I am on an .50 acre. I have a very large front yard. That includes some grass and some shell. I am a street away from the celery fields.` I am open to having animals in my house and traveling to others if needed.

About: What sets me apart is that I genuinely treat every pet like they’re my own. I understand that every animal has a unique personality and routine, so I take the time to make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. I’m patient with puppies who are still learning and can help reinforce basic training, potty routines, and good manners. I’m also attentive to senior pets who may need extra care, slower walks, medication, or simply a little more patience and comfort. My goal is to provide reliable, personalized care so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for. im currently a working part time mom who is pregnant with a 3 year old as well but my 3 yr old is in school so im available during the day after 1 and at night time i have a fenced yard! but with my 3 year old id prefer if i was able to have your babies in my home to make things easier

“Susan was great with our dogs. They liked her from the minute they met her. We have already booked her for two more times. I would highly recommend her!”

About: Animals aren’t just pets to me. They are individuals with emotions, personalities, and needs that deserve to be understood and respected. I do not just watch them, I connect with them! I genuinely care for them and treat them like they matter, because they do. You can feel completely at ease knowing their happiness, comfort, and safety are always my top priority. As an animal rights advocate, I approach every animal with genuine compassion and awareness, tailoring my care to who they are, not just what they need on paper. Whether they are energetic, shy, playful, or sensitive, I meet them where they are and give them the attention and love that helps them feel truly safe and seen. You can trust me to show up consistently, follow routines closely, and create a calm, caring environment while you are away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I structure my schedule to allow consistent time for walks, feeding, check-ins, and companionship. I generally maintain a flexible routine, which allows me to adjust based on each pet’s needs and the specific care plan we agree on. I’m intentional about not overbooking so I can stay attentive and responsive while pets are in my care. My availability can vary slightly week to week, but I prioritize clear communication and planning in advance to ensure expectations are aligned and your pet’s routine is supported as closely as possible. I aim to create a calm, safe, and comfortable environment based on each pet’s routine and personality. Whether I’m in your home or mine, I follow your instructions closely while staying attentive to how your pet is feeling. In your home, I keep things consistent with their normal schedule so they feel secure. In my home, I maintain a clean, low-stress space with close supervision and attention to safety and care. I stay mindful during walks and interactions and avoid anything that could feel overwhelming or risky. I also provide regular updates with photos and check in if anything seems off so we can decide what’s best together. **I do not have pets of my own, but my roommates have pets in the other part of the home. They are well-managed, and I take care to ensure safe, controlled interactions. I can also keep pets fully separated at all times if preferred, using multi-barrier safety measures.

“Jenny was very professional and dependable. She took great care of my cat and followed every instruction to a tee. I would definitely rebook with her again!”

“Jasmine watched our cat while we were away for 10 days. She was very attentive and followed all of our instructions. She gave us plenty of updates via the rover card and sent lots of pictures. We felt very comfortable with having her take care of our cat while we were away.”

“We can leave our cat Charlie knowing he will receive great care from Alana. She is responsible, always shows up on time and stays and plays with Charlie. She administers medication and is responsive to my concerns. We couldn’t get back due to the hurricane, no worries, Alana just extended her time caring for Charlie . Charlie is a shy cat and is reticent of people outside our family. Alana has built up trust and can easily pet and play with Charlie. A five star rating doesn’t cover her passion or dedication!”

“Wonderful to work with! Kaitlin's always on time & so loving to our little Maisie girl ❤️ Looking forward to our future walks with her.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and other animals for as long as I could remember whether it’s bathing them, walking them, or even just being there next to them I currently work part time at night time so I’m available every day until about 4 and Monday’s and Wednesday’s I am available all day I provide a safe, clean, and loving environment for every pet. I follow their normal routines, including feeding, walks, playtime, and medications. I treat each pet like my own, keep owners updated, and make sure they feel comfortable and cared for while they’re with me.

“Taylor is amazing with our girl. She's just over 6 months now and some dog sitters are really stand offish with a "puppy" but Taylor stepped up and really delivered! She's an absolute pleasure to be around and couldn't be happier!”

About: Hi! My name is Hailey, I’m 21 years old and currently in nursing school. I’ve been around animals my entire life and have always had a huge love for them. I currently have four cats and a Golden Retriever of my own, including a blind cat, so I also have personal experience caring for an animal with special needs and understanding the extra patience, attention, and consistency they may require. I also have experience watching and caring for my sister’s dog, along with taking care of my own pets every day. I understand how important it is to have someone dependable, patient, and loving looking after your pets while you’re away. I’m happy to help with feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, litter box care, companionship, and making sure your pets feel safe and comfortable. I’ll treat your pets with the same love and attention I give my own. I also have reliable transportation and my own car, which makes it easy for me to travel to your home for drop-in visits, walks, or other pet-care needs. I’m responsible, caring, and excited to meet you and your pets! Pet care fits well into my daily and weekly schedule. I am currently in nursing school and am available after 3:00 PM on weekdays once I get out of class. My weekends are open, giving me plenty of flexibility for walks, drop-in visits, and pet sitting. I also have my own reliable transportation, so I’m able to travel to clients and make sure their pets receive consistent and dependable care. In a client’s home, I would follow their pet’s normal routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable and safe. I can provide feeding, fresh water, walks, potty breaks, playtime, litter box cleaning, and plenty of attention and companionship. I’m also comfortable caring for pets that may need extra patience, since I have a blind cat of my own. I would make sure to follow any specific instructions the owner leaves and keep their home and pet’s space clean and secure while they are away.

About: Experience: I have had hands-on experience caring for cats and dogs of various sizes, and personalities. Over the years, I have done everything from energetic puppy playtime and daily dog walking to overnight house sitting for both cats and dogs. I am incredibly comfortable reading animal body language, maintaining consistent daily routines, and adapting to the unique quirks and needs of every pet I meet. My Services (Varies as Needed):     •    Dog Walking: Structured, safe, and fun outdoor adventures tailored to your dog’s fitness level and energy needs.     •    Pet Sitting / House Sitting: Keeping your pets safe and comfortable in their own familiar environment. Following their exact feeding and potty schedules, and keeping your home secure.     •    Open Communication: I know how tough it is to be away from your pets, so you can always expect timely updates, detailed summaries, and plenty of cute photo updates! I am currently a college student in St. Petersburg, but I commute from Lakewood Ranch, where I live. I do have classes Monday-Friday, but I have plenty of gaps and breaks in between my classes that would allow me to drop in. If I were doing overnight stays, I would immediately go from my campus to your location after my day was over, and if that does happen, I would be glad to send you my schedule in detail so we can further discuss logistics and times. For me, my home is just as much as my dog’s home. Usually all doors are open to allow him to traverse and lounge freely. My dog Brady has a general timeline of daily events, such as being let out, feeding, and playtime. I know that everyone has different rules and guidelines for their animals, which I will respect with the upmost importance. I would never want to put another person, or another animal in a situation of distress or unease, which is why I always follow instruction to a t, and if a situation ever arises in which I am unaware of what to do, or how to proceed, you the owner will immediately be contacted, as I would also never want to overstep and act on my own when that may not be in your, or your animals best interest.

About: Ive been assisting in taking care of pets since I can remember. My family never went without having furry companions in the house but ive been helping care for them since i was six. Id help my parents bath, walk, and play with the dogs as well as it was my chore to clean up all the dog droppings in the backyard. I've also had to help in giving heartworm, flea, and tick medicine as well as any other specific meds when theyd get an infection or get sick. The best part of having dogs was that I always had a friend. Someone who loved me unconditionally, watched over me, and always showered me in slobbery tennis balls and wet kisses. I currently work full time and my hours are typically the same. I am normally away from home from 7am to 5pm but typically have Fridays and Saturdays and am available in the evenings. I have a larged fenced in back yard and I live near the water so we'll have awesome walks. I also live very close to multiple dog parks. I live with my daughter and husband and we are all dog lovers. My daughter will want to shower your furry friend with kisses and hugs and acceptable treats all the time and my husband has always had dogs his whole life just as myself. We currently dont have any pets right now.

About: I've grown up with a large variety of pets my entire life, ranging from dogs (big, medium and small), cats, fish, beared dragons, chinchillas, and hamsters. Therefore I am very comfortable when it comes to handling varying types of pets and their personalities. Currently a full time college student and also looking for a part time job, but all my classes are online so my availability is pretty flexible. I walk 2 of my dogs daily as well as play with them in my backyard for at least 15 minutes a day since they are younger and need the enrichment. I also feed all my pets daily and provide them with clean water and litter boxes for those who use it.
