Pet Sitting 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.”

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 have worked at an animal hospital for 14 yrs. Taken care of family and friends animals for years, also have had pets for my whole life. I’m currently working part time I have plenty of time to spend on caring for pets, this would wonderful job for me do to I love dogs and cats. I have a one year old Yorkie and he is leashed walking several times a day, and loves playing outside at the doggy parks daily.

About: I've been caring for my family's and family friends' dogs ever since I was 10 years old; I've learned what to do in all kinds of different situations and I always make my animal's safety my first priority. I've administered medicines and applied creams to my animals. I am very safe and cautious with the animals I am watching and I remember rules and guidelines that have been established. I am a certified pet groomer so I can bathe, give a haircut, or do your pets nails as well. :) I currently work a mix of at-home and out, but I'm able to leave anytime. I'm off Sundays and Mondays so those days are completely free. I live in an apartment with no other animals. There are dogs parks and lots of grassy areas in my neighborhood. I have pet beds and food/water bowls for pets that I sit.

“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: Hi! My name is Chandler and I am currently still in college. I have the pleasure of caring for a dog and two cats all of whom were rescued when they were young so I have experience with training, crating, and all things that come with overly excited puppies and kittens. Shimmer is an indoor/outdoor cat so I am way too good at removing fleas and ticks. Jingles is a super friendly, Heinz-57, small dog who wanted to walk with three of his friends everyday so I have no problem handling multiple dogs of multiple sizes. I first got introduced to watching over other people’s animals about five years ago. My neighbors, who are snowbirds, had two dogs who were getting older and had a hard time traveling back and forth so they stayed with my family a couple months while they were up north for two years. I understand how every pet has a unique personality and I am committed to getting to what is necessary to keep yours happy and healthy. I really miss interacting with animals so I’m hoping you’ll allow me to give some love to your furry family members!!! I have in person classes on Thursday night. I am also working part-time Friday-Sunday. Each shift is between 4-5 hours and my schedule changes weekly. If needed I can make a set schedule with my job to accommodate your pets! Typically when I do walks, I play and make sure they had something to eat/drink before we go out. I don’t time restraint the animals unless set forth by the owner. I bring a water bowl, a toy, some treats, and doggy bags with me when I walk. If you live near a park I will most likely take your dog there if they are comfortable being around other people and dogs. If boarding in my home or yours I perform the same care as my own furry friends: probably giving them two much attention but I will follow your guidelines for when/how much food, whether or not they are allowed on furniture or should be in a crate, and any other special instructions.

About: I decided to start taking full-time care of our love ones by the minute I saw myself boarding family and friends pups. I educated myself to be prepared for unexpected situations like CPR Certification and I keep educating myself to provide the best care. Caring for your pets is my full time job 365 days a year, so yes I am home running around with the pups around the clock! My property have fully privacy fenced backyard that is cleaned and check twice daily for your pet safety. Your doggie will be free to spend as much or as little time outside as he wishes. I offer a wide assortment of dog beds to accommodate any size pup. Everyone is also allowed in the furniture, these are our kids, right?! And the hot Florida weather doesn't keep us inside all day. I also let them play with doggie pools as soon as you allow it. Feel free to contact me with any accommodations questions or Ask me about your pups day to day schedule while they stay with me! I am home all day long! My schedule starts at 6:30 am, pups and snack breaks. I work from home so I’m always on the lookout. Giving them activities to keep them entertained. I have a fully privacy fenced backyard that is cleaned and check twice daily for your pet safety. Your doggie will be free to spend as much or as little time outside as he time as he wishes. I owned two friendly female dogs to keep your fur baby company. I can easily create accommodations, crate or not crate!
