Cat Sitting in Okeechobee

“From the time I chose Marnie to care for my cat Freedom for two days Drop-In Visits I knew beyond doubt I made the right decision. I especially appreciated her taking photos of my cat on each visit and sharing them to me as well as providing a brief narrative demonstrating the level of care she showed. I am a first-timer with Rover and this process lets me know they don’t just cater to the canines but also to the felines. I learned we both speak “Cat”. Thanks Marnie, it is my pleasure meeting you.”

“Lillie took wonderful care of my dog and cat during both drop-in visits and overnight stays with her. Lillie went above and beyond for my fur babies. They love her!”

“Kristina was exceptional with my fur babies. What started as a 2 day drop in visits turned in to 2 1/2 weeks. She was great in adjusting to my situation. Would highly recommend Kristina and look forward to booking with her again.”

About: I have extensive experience caring for both puppies and senior dogs. As a devoted dog mom to three pups who lived full lives into their senior years, I understand the love, patience, and special care dogs need at every stage of life. I’ve also fostered numerous dogs over the years and have adopted two senior dogs, giving them a comfortable and loving home in their golden years. In addition to my own pets, I’ve cared for many friends’ and family members’ animals—often on short notice—so I understand how important it is to have someone dependable and trustworthy when plans change. Your pet’s comfort, safety, and happiness will always be my top priority. I work full time during the week, but my weekends are dedicated to providing loving care and attention to animals. I have a busy household with three grown children, and there is almost always someone home to keep your pets company and ensure they receive the care, comfort, and supervision they deserve. Our home is a pet-loving environment, and I truly enjoy spending time with animals, giving them attention, playtime, and a safe place to feel comfortable while you’re away. I have experience working with strong and high-energy breeds, including Chow Chows and Pit Bulls. I’m comfortable managing dogs who may need extra structure, including those with food sensitivities, leash challenges, or who require separation from other dogs. I understand the importance of consistency, boundaries, and safety for everyone involved. At home, I have two dogs — an Australian Shepherd mix and a Boxer/Catahoula mix — so I’m very familiar with active personalities and the care they need to thrive.

About: I am a certified vet assistant and also fear free trained who has fed, walked and administered medications and taken care of alot of animals. I absolutely love every minute of it. I also have worked as a animal control officer and at a couple of vet offices. I love taking care of animals and believe I would be a good choice for the care of your animals. I am open throughout the week with no other commitment. Animal care is my main priority and I am flexible on anything needed for service. I provide care at the clients home and listen to their wishes for their pet. They will be well taken care of between being fed, walked, played with and let out to do their deed outside.

About: As a child raised on a farm, I developed a natural ability to nurture and care for animals of all kinds. For as long as I can remember, I have provided my pets with everything they need to thrive. I have owned several dogs and cats over the years. I make sure they remain happy and healthy. This includes administering treatments when necessary, bathing them regularly, trimming their nails, keeping up with vaccinations and medical checkups, and providing plenty of affection and companionship on a daily basis. Taking care of animals comes naturally to me. I not only provide for their basic needs, but I also establish a loving bond with my pets through consistent care, grooming, attention, and of course walks and treats. The wellbeing of the animals in my care is of the utmost importance to me. Pet care is completely integrated into my daily routine and responsibilities. From the moment I wake up, my focus is on ensuring the needs of my pets are met. Each morning begins with filling food and water bowls, cleaning litter boxes, and walking the dogs. My farm animals also require daily attention in terms of feeding, watering and letting them into their specific areas. Throughout the day, I am constantly checking in on my pets, refilling water, playing with them, and providing comfort and companionship. If any of my pets show signs they are unwell or need to see a vet, I make that my top priority and will rearrange my schedule accordingly to take them to appointments. Even during the nighttime, I am there for my pet and their needs and listen for any sounds that would indicate they want to go outside or need something. Their wellbeing and happiness comes before anything else in my routine. No matter what else is going on in my day, my pets always receive the time, care and love they deserve from me. As a dedicated pet caregiver, I provide for all the needs of the animals under my supervision. Whether at my own home or a client's residence, my focus is always on ensuring the pets remain happy, healthy, and well behaved. I allow the pets outdoor access at regular intervals, taking them for walks when needed. Basic hygiene is a priority, so pets receive routine grooming that includes baths and nail trimming. I play with the animals frequently to and provide lots of affection, hugs, and praise to make sure they feel loved. Their diet is closely monitored. I prepare fresh food and change water dishes regularly. I also secure away objects that could pose a hazard if left where a pet could access them. Regular vet appointments are scheduled to check them out and keep them up to date with everything. I take the pets to parks and other open spaces for fun. My role as a pet caregiver ensures all needs are met and the animals remain comfortable and content, whether at my own residence or under my supervision at a client's home. The pets' happiness and wellbeing are my top priorities.

About: I have always owned dogs and considered them as family. I have taken care of family and friends' dogs for about 20 years now and I have always treated them as if they were my own. I work full time, but only 2 or 3 days a week depending on the week. Therefore I'm free about 5 days a week and my schedule is flexible. Also, I live with my parents and sister and whenever I need to run errands, the pups never stay alone. I have a 20x30 yards, fenced back yard. I make them play for a while, feed them as instructed per the owner. If small enough, I let them sleep with me, if allowed by you.

“I would highly recommend Hailey to anyone, she was great. My dogs were very happy and taken care of exactly the way I would’ve wanted them to be. She communicated and sent pictures for each visit. I have two Australian shepherds one is 13 years old and one is 6 and she gave them each the attention that they needed. this is my first time using Rover and I will definitely use Hailey again.”

About: I have two beautiful dogs and a gorgeous kitty at home. I love taking care of animals and enjoy walks as well. I am open to house sitting, drop ins, and walks. I regularly take my pups for walks and occasionally my feline friend as well. My senior dogs love the dog park and my cat loves her balcony time. I currently work at a daycare with infants and will soon work at an infant center. I hope to start EMT school in the spring and begin my journey of helping others. Pets should be treated just like people, with respect and understanding. I believe in firm boundaries with all animals. I respect your pets and your home and I will take as many steps as I can to make them feel comfortable around me.

“Lauren did a great job at updating me about my pets and their care. If she ever had any questions she wasn’t hesitant to ask. I can tell that my pets were well taken care of while I was away. I will definitely be using her again in the future!”

Gina H.

“Lorianne did a great job taking care of our cat, Winnie, while we were away for 5 days. Winnie can be anxious, but Lorianne was patient with Winnie. By day 2, Winnie was rubbing on her. Lorianne sent daily pictures and updates. Highly recommend!”

About: My Dad grew up in a farm, his love for animals I have inherited wholeheartedly. I have taken care of a range of animals altogether. I work from home so I have a lot of flexibility and time to provide care and support for your fur babies. I am available on the weekends too. At my place I have a dog park and a very cute grassy area for the dogs to play in. At the clients home I will make sure I have a clear understanding of the routine.

About: Hi! I’m Amanda Briggs, and I have extensive experience caring for and training dogs. I’ve raised and trained my own dogs from puppies, including helping care for litters until they were ready for new homes. I’m patient, attentive, and truly love working with animals. I’m happy to walk, feed, play, and work on basic training if desired. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved. If I’m caring for your pet in your home, I can also help with light cleaning if requested. Your pet will be in caring, experienced hands — I look forward to meeting you both! Pet care fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I plan my schedule to ensure I have dedicated time for walks, feeding, play, and individual attention. I prioritize consistency and reliability, making sure each pet’s routine is followed closely so they feel comfortable and secure. For in-home care, I follow each pet’s routine closely to maintain comfort and consistency. This includes feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and providing companionship and supervision. I keep the home clean and secure and make sure pets feel safe and relaxed in their familiar environment. For dog walking, I focus on safe, attentive walks tailored to each dog’s energy level and needs. I reinforce good leash manners, remain aware of surroundings, and ensure dogs get both exercise and mental stimulation. I always prioritize safety and reliability while providing regular updates to owners.

About: I’ve had dogs all my life since I was a little girl. I’ve taken care of newborn puppies to old age dogs & pregnant mommas dogs. I’ve learned how to train them to walk on leashes how to crate train them and train them on command. I’ve worked with dogs Who’ve had many health issues as well. I have plenty of patience for happy, excited puppies, and plenty of love for calm lap dogs (even if they aren’t really lap dogs). I am a stay at home mom of 4 & im in school part time, so my schedule is pretty flexible. I’ll be free mostly anytime. I have a fenced in back yard with plenty of space . I do have dogs on my property, they have their own rooms for sleeping and playing . I live on an end street so not much activity happens on my street, so we’ll be able to talk walks as well . I also can crate them if needed .

About: I have experience working at a doggy daycare, where I cared for dogs of all sizes by supervising play, walking, and bathing them! I’ve also been dog walking and pet sitting for the past 5 years. I’m comfortable with different temperaments and energy levels, and I focus on keeping every pet safe, happy, and well cared for. I stand out for my reliability, attention to detail, and the extra effort I put into learning each pet’s routine and personality so they feel comfortable while you’re away! Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine since I work from home and have a flexible schedule. I’m able to give pets consistent attention throughout the day, whether that’s walks, playtime, or just keeping them company. I also live an active lifestyle, so I enjoy staying active with dogs through regular walks and exercise, making it easy to keep them happy, engaged, and well cared for. I provide care based on each pet’s routine, whether in my home or my client’s. This includes feeding, walks, playtime, and lots of attention, while keeping their environment clean, safe, and comfortable.

“Glenn is FAB! Our pups love him - and I’m pretty sure Glenn has a sweet spot for the pups. I trust him in our home and with our pups. No way we would have survived puppyhood without his help.”
