“Thank you Amanda for taking care of our 2 rescue kittens. They felt at home with Amanda. She kept them engaged and us updated. She put our minds at ease while we were gone. Will definitely book with Amanda again!”

About: With over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of animals from energetic puppies and curious kittens to exotic pets like birds, reptiles, and small mammals. I offer more than just pet sitting or walking: I offer peace of mind. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, routine, and needs, and I take pride in providing compassionate, personalized care tailored to each furry (or feathered or scaly!) family member while you are away! I am a remote worker with a flexible schedule and a lot of time to focus on your pets individually. I am yours when needed. Caring for your pets in your home or on a walk is all about keeping them comfortable, happy, and stress-free while you’re away. I follow your pet’s daily routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and cuddle sessions. Whether it’s a quiet senior cat who needs gentle companionship, a high-energy pup who loves long walks, or a shy pet that just needs patience and a calm presence. I tailor my care to each pet’s personality and needs.

I cherish every moment spent caring for, playing with, and connecting with pets of all kinds—whether they have fur, scales, feathers, or even tiny legs! From dogs and cats to snakes and lizards (yes, even bugs!), I believe every creature deserves love, respect, and the absolute best care. I’m the proud mom of two senior dachshunds, Buddy (15) and Casey (13), who have been my world since birth. I understand the deep bond we share with our pets, and I care for every animal as if they were my own. Whether it’s feeding, walking, administering medication, or simply giving them belly rubs and playtime, I ensure each pet gets the attention, love, and care they need. I also specialize in accommodating special requests and needs—so whether your pet requires extra patience, specific routines, or special care, I’m here to help.

About: My deep love and genuine connection with animals of all ages and personalities. I have experience with training using patience and positive reinforcement techniques, ensuring they feel safe and learn good behavior. As a student, I’m available to provide pet care every weekday after 3:30 PM, which fits perfectly with my class schedule. This allows me to give your pets focused, quality attention during the afternoons and evenings when I’m free. On weekends, I’m flexible and can accommodate a variety of care needs. When caring for pets in my client’s home, my top priority is making sure each pet feels safe, comfortable, and truly at ease. I take time to get to know their unique personalities and routines, so I can provide care that feels familiar and comforting. I always use gentle, positive interactions to build trust, and I respect each pet’s space and preferences.

“Always relatable, always dependable and to be honest I’ve made a true friendship with Jessica. I trust her more than the president trusts his secret service.

Truly the best dog sitter in the city of Gainesville and perhaps all of Florida. I”
