House Sitting in North Port

“Catlyn was great-on time, lots of communication and photos! House was spotless when we returned from a weekend trip. I felt comfortable the whole time that our boys were being well cared for!”

“From the meet and greet we knew we were in love with Jennifer and husband, they did a fabulous job caring for our Molly. While away we received at least 3 Text messages a day with pics...Jennifer was concerned when she noticed a change in her bowel movement, and she suggested cutting down on certain foods I had left for her (chicken and cheese). So happy that we found Jennifer, now we can go away without any worries. ???”

About: I have hands-on experience supporting special needs pets with medication routines, mobility, and extra patience. Families trust me because I treat every pet like my own—with safety, consistency, and lots of love. I am recently retired, which gives me the flexibility and availability to devote quality time to your pet. With an open schedule and a genuine love for animals, I’m able to provide consistent care, attention, and companionship whenever you need it. I treat every client’s home with the same care and respect as I do their pets. I make sure the space is clean, secure, and well-maintained, following any household instructions closely so you can return to a safe and comfortable home.

About: I have 3 dachshunds at home. Two are seniors and one is a puppy. I also cared for my senior cat up until she was 17. 🤍 My animals are my babies. At home, I am described as a helicopter parent...(always hovering) making sure they are happy & safe. I have pet experience with medical conditions such as IVDD, diabetes, cushings, asthma, etc. I am familiar with all of the poisonous plants, foods, toxins in your home and dangerous wildlife in our area. I take the safety of your baby seriously, just as if they were my own. I am new to creating a Rover profile, but not new to pet sitting. I've been watching friends, family & neighbor's fur kids since I was in high school. work from home as a social media manager, so my schedule is fairly flexible. I rarely am ever out of town (away from my kids)- so more than likely I can look after your kids! 🐾🐶🐱 I like to treat animals as if they were my own. How would I want a sitter to be with my baby? Kind, patient, fun, and always safe. I don't mind texting check-in photos or a short summary of my visit. I am easy to communicate with and will be happy to keep a routine and do my best to follow instructions for your kids.

“I highly recommend Starla or house and dog sitting. She truly loves and cares for pets. She was wonderful with our two mini dachshunds for a week and she left neat, no sign that she was even here. Starla sent us up dates several times a day. She was absolutely wonderful with our two fur babies!”

“Tatianna took wonderful care of my dog while I was out for the evening. She arrived on time, then walked him on one of the coldest nights of the year, gave him treats, and paid lots of attention to him. I will not hesitate to have Tatianna come back again.”

“Jennifer was amazing with our older, anxious dog over the 4th of July. She kept her calm during the fireworks and gave us total peace of mind. We came home to a happy, relaxed pup—she’s truly the best! And we can’t thank her enough for staying at our home caring for our lovely Leila!”

Lisa M.

“Brittany was the only person outside of our family and circle of friends who our dog Lily responded positively to! Her meet and greets meant so much to us and Lily that by the time the date came to house sit for us, Lily greeted Brittany with her special doggy smile full of teeth and jumped onto her chest! She texted me some photos and explained how Lily was feeling. She followed instructions on feeding and playing and understood Lily’s demeanor. I felt Lily and our home were in safe and capable hands. Brittany was a professional.”

About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of animals since I was 11 I’ve had my own personal dogs for 5 years now and then I used to work at a dog grooming shop as a groomer and still am on the side! But I’ve recently became a stay at home mom for a sweet 4 month old boy! I’ve also worked at dog daycare center as well. I also am a cat mom to and almost 15 year old kitty! She is my soul kitty and I love her dearly! I recently became a stay at home mom and I’m wanting to make a little extra money to help my husband out! My schedule is pretty flexible and taking care of animals comes easy to me! I personally leave my dogs out day and night. They typically sleep with my husband and I in bed and are the worst bed hogs😂. We take them on evening walks a few times a week and also like to take them on car rides to my parents house! But I’m open to care for my clients animals any type of way they prefer!

“Maria took excellent care of Bentley. Her frequent supply of photos and videos every day was much appreciated and and we could tell Bentley was happy and well cared for. We will call upon her again when we need her help. We can tell she really loves dogs,”

About: I have cared for dogs for many years through family, friends, and my own pets. I currently have a 68-lb pitbull who I walk about 2 miles every day, so I am very comfortable handling medium and large dogs that need regular exercise. My dog has completed five different levels of training courses, which has helped me learn how to properly walk dogs on leash, reinforce good behavior, and stay calm and confident in different situations. I understand how important structure, consistency, and positive reinforcement are for dogs. I treat every pet like my own and always prioritize their safety, comfort, and happiness. Whether your dog needs a long walk, playtime, feeding, or just some extra attention while you are away, I will make sure they are well cared for and that you receive updates and photos. I am a college student going to be a kindergarten teacher and resident advisor, which means my schedule can vary week to week. However, I often have flexible availability and can accept bookings on many weekdays and weekends depending on the week. I am happy to communicate ahead of time about availability and will always be reliable once a booking is confirmed. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I follow all instructions closely for feeding schedules, walks, medications if needed, and any specific care instructions. I make sure pets get plenty of exercise, attention, and enrichment through walks, playtime, and positive interaction. I also keep the home clean and respectful while I’m there. I also send regular updates and photos so owners feel confident that their pets are happy, safe, and well cared for while they are away. And if you asked anyone around me they would tell you that my dog Topper is one of the most well taken care of dogs you would ever see.

“Shawn did a wonderful job watching our Huxlee. When stressed Huxlee stops eating but Shawn provided her with a a can of food that she was able to eat. When our return flight was cancelled, Shawn was able to stay on till we returned.”

“Jennifer was amazing with our Cru. I always hate leaving him when we go out of town, but Jennifer made it to where we didn't have to worry at all. She was great with keeping us updated by pictures and videos plus we came home to a spotless house. I would definitely use her again and again to watch our fur baby. Thank you again, for everything, Jennifer!”

About: With years of hands-on experience in caring for pets, I provide expert knowledge in feeding, playing, brushing, potty time and maintaining the overall health and well-being of animals. I currently am trying to figure out what I want to do career wise but I love animals so this is an amazing little side hussle unless I can make it a career. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize their comfort, safety, and routine. I follow the pet’s usual schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, and rest to ensure minimal disruption. I maintain a clean and safe environment, keeping the home secure and ensuring the pet is safe while the owner is away. Regular communication with the pet owner is key, and I provide updates, including photos or videos, so they can feel at ease. Additionally, I make sure the pet receives plenty of affection, mental stimulation, and exercise to keep them happy and healthy during their time with me.
