House Sitting in Osprey

“Libah was incredible with our 2 golden doodles! I have always been anxious leaving my babies when we go out of town but I didn't feel that way at all with Libah. She sent me regular updates and pictures and took care of them like they were her babies. Finding a sitter we trust has been so difficult and we are so relieved to have found Libah!! Would 100% recommend her to anyone needing a sitter!”

“Monica was incredible! She truly went above and beyond to take care of our pup while we were out of the country. The worst part of any vacation is leaving Nori but Monica kept our minds at ease. Highly recommend!!”

“Extremely grateful for Carolina. Worked around my schedule last minute to watch my dog in my house for a week. Dependable, responsible, and trustworthy. Added bonus of also being very communicative. Highly recommend”

“Megan is a lifesaver! We have never left our puppy before and wanted to travel for our daughter’s graduation in NYC. We never had to worry for a minute. So grateful she stayed at our home with both dogs. We highly recommend Megan to home sit.”

About: Hi, I'm Miranda, a lifelong animal lover with over 20 years of experience in pet care, including in-home sitting and drop in visits for cats and dogs and even the occasional exotic fish or bird. Based in North Port, Venice and Sarasota areas. I believe pets thrive best in their own familiar environment—free from the stress of kennels or boarding facilities. That's why I specialize in personalized, overnight in-home pet sitting, ensuring your furry family member gets the love, exercise, and routine they crave while you're away. I've fostered many rescues in my home. I have skills in everything from oral medication administration to basic behavioral training. Whether it's daily walks in the neighborhood, playtime with toys, or cozy cuddle sessions on the couch, I tailor my care to your pet's unique personality and needs. I also provide daily photo and video updates so you can stay connected! Past clients rave about my reliability and the peace of mind I bring. When I'm not watching fur babies, you'll find me at the beach, hanging out with my 2 rescue pups or adventuring. Ready to book a meet-and-greet? Message me! Let's keep your pet happy, healthy, and home—where they belong! 🐾 Looking for a reliable sitter in Gulf Gate? I work locally Mon–Thu and can easily swing by for drop-ins before, during, or after my workday. I’m also happy to stay at your place! I’ll be out of your house during the day for work, but I make it a priority to come home at lunch to check on your fur babies and make sure they’re doing great. I’ve been a dedicated animal lover and sitter for over two decades! My journey began on a Colorado ranch where I looked after everything from pups to poultry (and the occasional iguana). Since then, I’ve spent years fostering dogs and building a loyal base of repeat clients who trust me with their homes and 'fur babies.' You can count on me to provide the same love and care I give my own pets, while always leaving your home exactly as I found it—clean and tidy

“Amanda was incredible with our pets! She took them on walks and sent us multiple pictures of them while we were gone. If you are looking for someone to care for your pets while house sitting I strongly recommend reaching out to her! I know I will next time we need a sitter!”

“Best rover we have ever had. We have two older dogs with some incompetency problems and when we got home, everything was super clean. The dogs were super relaxed and happy and she even left on jazz music for them to chill too when we got home. 10/10 no notes she’s amazing”

“Noelle was an amazing dog sitter for our active English Bulldog! She came for a meet and greet, and we hired her on the spot! Her communication was amazing throughout the process and the trip, and we could really enjoy our time away. It was a great feeling coming home to a pup that was happy, loved and comfortable in our home rather than in a kennel. We highly recommend Noelle!”

“We greatly appreciate the loving care Katie provided for our puppy recently - while we were out for the day. She is a delightful person and our boy responded to her very positively from the minute she arrived. I will definitely contact her again.”

Kathryn W.

“Genie did a great job taking care of Susa. She very kindly arrived earlier when we realized the concert started earlier then we had thought. We recommend Genie and will use her help again!”

About: I have had all kinds of pets my entire life. My grandfather was a dog breeder and boarder long ago so my care of animals started at a young age. I have taken classes on dog training and dog psychology. I currently only have 2 cats in my own home. I currently do not work much due to my health so I am around a lot to sit and care for animals. I am able to do short walks with dogs. I am willing to care for any type of animal. I currently only help out some of my friends with their businesses so I do not work full time. My schedule is typically very flexible so it is easy to fit in dog or cat care or sitting. I am willing to come to your home and keep things as normal as.possible for your pets or I am happy to bring dogs into my home. If the dog is not comfortable with cats, I keep the visiting dogs confined to our living and dining rooms so they still have enty of space. I can make room for crates if needed but am also fine with letting them sleep on the furniture at night. I have a large screened lanai with plenty of room to chase a ball or run around. I enjoy spending time outdoors so I am often out on the lanai most of the day.

“PRO: Seth arrived 20min early, dogs welcomed him. He was good at informing me of there activities. CON: No pictures taken until requested”

About: I have owned pets all my life from cats, dogs, Guinea pigs. I currently have helped my neighbors walk their dogs when needed. I did an internship back in the at a dog care and went to pet grooming school as well. I am available Monday through Friday open availability and available on Weekends . I’m flexible with scheduling in clients around my work schedule to walk or care for your fur baby I used to own pets. I currently help my neighbors walk there dogs when needed. I feed , play , walk there dogs and any other instructions given

About: I grew up in a household with eight cats and four dogs, my parents were big into animals. I had my own bulldog for a number of years (she passed away recently) and currently have two cats of my own. I’ve picked up more dog poop and cleaned out more cat litters than I can count over the years.. I work entirely from remote, so my availability is always open to housesit or pet sit. I can be gone weeks at a time without it being a real burden. My cats have an automatic feeder and automatic litter cleaner so I don’t have to worry about them when I go away. I also have two roommates so they help take care of them when I’m out so they don’t get lonely. I walk, clean up after, feed, groom, even bathe, client’s animals. And I have it pretty easy with my current cats, they have an automatic feeder and a litter box that cleans itself automatically. So they’re pretty easy-going.

“William was very impressive. He sent me photos and updates on how my dogs were doing while I was away. He left the house cleaner than when I left it! Highly recommended!”
