About: Lifelong pet lover with hands-on experience caring for cats, kittens, puppies, and dogs. Skilled in administering medications (pill and liquid forms) and currently fostering through PAWS. Dedicated to treating every furry companion with the same love and care as my own. I currently work part time. I am available throughout the day for any needs your pets may have. Walks can be arranged either morning or evening for pets comfort. I like to know your pets routine (feeding/exercise/play/sleep) so we can maintain their schedule. Generally wont do walks midday due to heat but can do play sessions outside.
About: Owner of Panhandle Pet Care & Waste Removal. I offer professional pet care services to include POOPER SCOOPER services. I am licensed, insured and bonded for everyone's protection! I would love to meet you and discuss your family's needs! Pets are like children! it is my second nature to make sure those fur babies are well taken care of and need NOTHING! Your pets needs, wants and current routine is my top priority! While I cannot board your pets in my home, I am more than happy to visit your pet where they are most comfortable, IN THEIR HOME!!! This begins our relationship with safety and trust as they are in an environment where they are familiar. If your pup is extra skittish I will more than likely request to stop by a couple times before your departure date. This lets your pet know I am allowed to be in their home and I can be trusted. I will NEVER force myself on any animal, I ALWAYS let them come to me!
“Rebecca, did an outstanding job! She stopped by the house the day before to see if the dogs and her would get along, and they loved her. The next few days she came by and walked them while I was at work and sent pics of the pups on the walks. I will definitely recommend her to anyone in need of a dog sitter. James”
“Gabriela was fantastic and flexible with my schedule when I needed last minute walks! She was thorough with documenting happenings along the walk as well as posting several photos and videos throughout! Mia loved having her over! Highly recommend!!”
About: I grew up in a household with at least 3 dogs at a time and they all held special places in my heart. I highly value treating animals as one of our own, so your babies will be safe and well cared for with me 😊 I currently work part-time with a flexible schedule, which usually involves working nights. We can very easily figure out a schedule that works for everyone! I highly value kindness, patience, and compassion. My pets are very well taken care of and I will take care of yours as if they were mine! While we’re able to explore the world, we are the world for our pets! This means lots of playtime, cuddles, little treats, and clean litter boxes.
About: We absolutely love caring for dogs and treat them like family just like we do with our own two sweet pups (🐶🐶). Your dog will be in loving hands, spoiled with attention, belly rubs, and plenty of playtime! Since I work from home full-time, I’m available every day to give your dog the care and companionship they need throughout the day. Whether it’s active play, calm snuggles, or keeping up with their routine, I’ve got it covered. I’m also very flexible and happy to work with your schedule and preferences because I know how important it is to make sure your pup is happy, safe, and loved while you’re away. 💕 Pet care is a natural part of our daily routine and something we truly enjoy. I have the flexibility to give pets the attention and care they deserve throughout the day whether that’s regular potty breaks, playtime, walks, or just some snuggles and companionship. I love incorporating pets into my schedule; they bring joy and structure to my day. Making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved is always a top priority for me. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I always aim to create a safe, loving, and stress-free environment. At home, pets are treated like part of the family lots of cuddles, playtime, regular walks, and a consistent routine to help them feel comfortable and secure. I make sure they have a cozy space, fresh water, and follow any specific instructions or feeding schedules. When I’m in a client’s home, I maintain their pet’s usual routine as closely as possible to minimize anxiety while they’re away. I’m respectful of the home, keep everything clean, and ensure the pets receive all the love, attention, and care they’re used to. Communication is also important to me. I always provide updates photos, and videos, so fur parents have peace of mind while they’re away.

“My dog (Ruthie) is a high energy dog that needed more than a simple walk. I scheduled one hour for three weeks while I healed from a broken leg. I asked Angela to try and "wear her out". Andrea took time to play with her, took her to the water and found dogs she could visits for play dates. She was good with Ruthie. Ruthie learned several new commands and Andrea kept her training fresh and improved Ruthies response to her recently learned advanced level commands. Andrea was an excellent choice.”
About: I have two fur babies of my own at home! A beagle and a kitten. I’ve always been the girl in the neighborhood that would watch over the animals when someone goes out of town. I’m an animal lover (cats, dogs, you name it!) and I just want the best for your baby(s). I love taking dogs on walks and playing with cats for enrichment. I’m extremely good with following instructions when it comes to feeding, exercise, bed time, etc. Just let me know how you would like it to be done and it will be! I am also skilled at giving baths and any other needs your baby has. I currently go to school at UWF and graduate this December. My schedule can vary throughout the week since my part time job does not schedule me consistently. When school starts, I will mainly be available later in the week (Thurs-Sun). I would love to work with someone on a schedule! Communication is key and if anything changes I will always contact you first:) I currently live in a house without a fenced yard. Therefore, I am always willing to come to you! I will make sure that I treat your baby(s) just like I treat mine- with immense amount of love and care. Pets take patience and love and I am here to ensure that is all you will get from me! If you have any questions at all please let me know!
About: I Have taken care of pets all my life. My family and friends have always been surrounded by their presence. I enjoy taking care of them and giving them all the love that they deserve. I know all pets have different personalities, some are more playful, some are more peaceful. Some trust more than others. Whatever the case is, I am patient to get to know them and understand their needs. I am very blessed to have my wife next to me always loving the pets that surround us. We have pet sitter many times together and is just a bunch of love around. We love that! It makes us more happy than we already are! One day even our future babies will enjoy that with us too! I am currently only attending college online so I have plenty of availability. I have time throughout the week and sometimes the weekends too. I will always try to work it out. Plus my wife is always there for me, so she can always take the times that I cannot. I do not have any pets so if I was to receive pets in my home they do not have to worry about other pets. That way they are more comfortable!
