Dog Sitting Palm Harbor

About: I am Marine Mammal Animal Care Professional. I have been in the animal care field for over a decade. During that time I have worked with animals of all ages and abilities, including but not limited to animals with vision and hearing impairments, senior animals, and animals with physical disabilities. I am responsible for paying very close attention to all details of facets of animal care, including but not limited to training and maintaining behaviors using positive reinforcement and other operant conditioning techniques, noting physical changes, appetites, managing food/caloric intake, and medication administration. A huge part of my job is reading and adjusting to animal behavior, and I am well versed in listening to animal body language. I am an animal care professional by trade, and though most of my experience is with exotic animals the care, passion, and expertise translate directly to pet care! Though I work 40 hours per week I work 4-10 hour days, leaving me with three full days off per week! I have very few other commitments outside of work, and live only a few miles from home. I live in a house with moderately sized fenced in back yard. I currently have a very friendly, well socialized tuxedo cat who gets along well with dogs and other cats. Though he usually has access to the entire house, he is also comfortable spending time in just my room if separation from other animals were to be needed or desired. I enjoy spending time with my or friends pets in my down time. My entire career is in animal care, so I am very used to adapting my routine and needs to fit the animals I am caring for. I will happily curl up on the couch with a furry friend or spend hours playing or walking, whatever suits each individual animals needs!

“Dylan was a wonderful sitter for my kitties. She was very communicative and did a great job. Everything looked great upon my return and kitties seemed very content and happy. Will definitely ask for her service again!”

About: Hi! I’m Rachel, and I’m an animal lover who genuinely believes pets are family. 🐾❤️ I know how stressful it can be to leave your furry babies with someone else, so my goal is to make the experience as comfortable and worry-free as possible for both you and your pets. I’m patient, attentive, and happy to follow your pet’s normal routine so they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. Whether your pet wants lots of cuddles and attention or prefers a little space, I’m happy to meet them where they are. I’m especially comfortable caring for cats and love getting to know each one’s unique personality — including the shy, sassy, and slightly spoiled ones! 🐈‍⬛💕 I’m also very responsible when it comes to feeding schedules, medications or special instructions, litter box care, playtime, and keeping you updated while you’re away. Your home and your pet will always be treated with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I’d love the opportunity to meet your pets and help give them a happy, comfortable experience while you’re away! 🐾 Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I’m able to build visits and pet care into my daily schedule and make sure each pet gets the attention, care, and consistency they need. I’m very comfortable following established routines, including feeding schedules, medications, litter box care, playtime, and other special instructions. I also understand that pets thrive on consistency, so I make it a priority to be dependable and keep their routine as close to normal as possible while their owners are away. 🐾💕 I care for pets in their own home by keeping their routine as consistent and comfortable as possible. I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, fresh water, litter box care, playtime, cuddles, medications, and any special treatments they may need. 🐾 I’m respectful of my clients’ homes and treat them with the same care I would want someone to show my own home. I also make sure pets receive plenty of attention and companionship while their owners are away, while respecting their individual personalities and boundaries. I’ll provide regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing your fur baby is happy, safe, and being well cared for. 💕

About: I will love your pet and care for it as much as my own. I have worked professionally with large and small breed animals. Animals warm up to me quickly, and we become good friends. I will care for your pet with pride and give it the attention it needs. Safety is always a priority. I have pet-sat and dog-walked for years. I volunteer with Pinellas County Animal Shelters, and I am certified through IAP Career College for pet sitting and am experienced in administering medication. I am flexible depending on your location. I live in North Pinellas County and prefer to stay there. My business offers a range of pet services. I have a large-breed dog and have cared for cats and dogs. I take lots of pictures of my clients' pets and require written safety protocols before each job.

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, as well as cats. I’m currently a proud dog mom to a 3-year-old German Shepherd, so I’m especially comfortable with large, energetic breeds and understand the importance of exercise, patience, consistency, and lots of attention. I know every pet has their own personality and routine, and I’m happy to follow your instructions closely to make sure they feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. Whether your pet needs a walk, playtime, feeding, or simply some extra love and company, I’ll care for them like I would my own. 🐾 I currently have a very flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of availability for walks, drop-in visits, and quality time with your pets! I’m available throughout the week and can accommodate a variety of schedules and routines. I live in an apartment community with plenty of space for walks and a dog park for exercise and playtime. I also have my own German Shepherd and am experienced with balancing exercise, play, structure, and downtime throughout the day. In a client’s home, I’ll follow your pet’s usual feeding, walking, potty, and play schedule as closely as possible. I’m happy to provide walks, playtime, feeding, fresh water, cuddles, and plenty of photo updates so you know how your pet is doing!

“Anastasiia was a total life saver. I had a last minute biz trip out of town and she came through. Not only that but she took great care of our doggos. Gave us daily updates with pics. Would recommend her!”

About: Hello! I’ve pet sat for a variety of pets for 7+ years with different weight and medical needs. I also used to work at a Veterinary Hospital in kennel and boarding services. Washing and nail clipping services are available upon request. I love pets and will treat them as my very own spoiled child with lots of pictures, love, and allowed treats. I’m available to petsit throughout the week. Dog walking will be limited during weekdays. Longer stays gets an extended discount. I request all pets to be on regularly treated with flea medication. Let me know if your pet is leash broken and if they’re socialized! There’s multiple dog parks around the west coast for Florida and I’d love to be able to get your lovelies the best care possible. If you have any further questions, please feel free to send me a message! I currently work from home 8:30 am - 4:30pm and can adjust scheduling when needed. Please feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions or concerns. I am unable to house pets in my home but am happy to make frequent visits or stay in the clients home if required. I take pet safety and care seriously as there's nothing in this world more precious than ensuring pet comfort and care.

“Holly was always very diligent about updating to walks and providing pictures. Her and our puppy got along great. Appreciated the reliable check ins while we were gone. Will definitely seek her out again.”

About: As a lifelong dog lover and owner for 10 years, I’m now embarking on a new chapter after 24 wonderful years in Chicago. Following a long career in advertising sales, I’m seeking a slower-paced, more fulfilling path — one that lets me combine my reliability with my love for animals. At 49, I bring maturity, responsibility, and genuine care to every pup I watch, ensuring your they are looked after as if they were my own. Also, the doodle you see in some pics is my amazingly chill, gets along with every living thing, sidekick Lambeau. So please note your dog(s) must be okay with other dogs. I'm currently taking some time off and won't be going back to remote work until the fall '26, at the earliest. So I'm very flexible with my time at the moment. I live in an apartment complex (2 bed / 2 bath) with a huge unfenced grassy area off my lanai, that Lambeau and I call our own backyard. I also live across the street from John Chesnut park, in the Tarpon Woods area so Lambeau and I spend lots of time at that huge dog park and/or exploring the various trails. So if you're open to that as well, I'll gladly take your pup(s) over there for some adventures.

About: I’ve always had a dog around growing up as well have my own. I’ve also been caring for dogs for the elderly, family and friends for my whole life as well. I’m currently a stay at home mom with children in school so I have plenty of time to take your dogs on long walks as well as play endlessly with any animals at home. I currently have a dog and two bearded dragons. I walk my dog 30 minutes a day three times a day. For my dragons, I take them out for exercise and feedings.

I’m home all day so I can take care of your pets all day. I can offer baths and nail cuts also for an additional fee. Tips are very much appreciated ❤️🫶🏻 P.s I do NOT have any pets of my own. Please let me know if your pet is not fully potty trained, please bring pee pads if so. Also, if your dog is in heat, there will be an additional fee that will be incurred. I do local pick up and drop off within 5-10 miles for a small fee. Longer distances are open to discussion but do incur a fee for gas/wear and tear. Let me know if you are looking for over 2 weeks and we can adjust pricing for long term. Please be aware there are times I may have other dogs from another family or families. I take great care towards your pet and their safety and happiness is top priority. If your animal is not ok with others, please let me know and confirm with me that I don’t have others during that time. I work from home so I have flexible availability. I can watch pets in my home, during the week or weekends, or in your home for daily walks, care etc. I do not have any pets of my own. Drop off/pick up hours are between M-F 7 am-8 pm.

About: While earning a B.S. in Animal Health and Behavior from Unity Environmental University, I had the opportunities to work in a variety of animal care positions. I have experience working as a kennel attendant (dogs, cats, and exotics), dog bather, animal shelter technician, animal nutrition intern at Zoo Tampa, and pet sitter for dogs and cats (2 years). I have volunteered in veterinary clinics, animal shelters and aviary hospitals. I have a genuine passion to care for animals, treating each animal as if they are my own. I am available to pet sit in home for any period of time but will be at work from 10am - pm on Monday, Thursday and Friday. Pet Sitting - 7 days a week Dog Walking - 7 days a week Limited Hours/ Days - Monday, Thursday, Friday 10am - 4pm Pet Sitting: I find it of utmost importance to stick to an animal's routine as closely as possible while their owners are away. Leaving your pets while you go out of town can be stressful, I aim to alleviate any concerns by maintaining proper communication, and by caring for your animal as if they were my own girl, Sadie. Each animal is different in so many ways, I aim to touch base with clients regarding medication, allergies, likes and dislikes, weekday/weekend routine and more. I am a simple person, either reading a book, studying, or going on a walk. I am trained in dog walking techniques and feel comfortable walking reactive dogs, as my dog is reactive herself.

About: I have been pet sitting and walking for a decade now and have my own pets. I can handle small and big dogs as well as young and old dogs. I go at their speed with a gentle push so we get some distance in too. I work from home most days and that allows a flexible schedule to get plenty of play time and walks in throughout the day or I care for them like my own and cuddle as much as possible if they like that. If not we just chill and keep each other company

About: I love dogs of all kind. Big, small, old, young. I have 3 babies of my own who mean the world to me and I would love to be able to take care of your as they are my own. I’m currently available all day on Wednesdays and Sundays. Available for early mornings on Saturday and after 4 on Saturdays. I can do evening walks any day of the week. I’m currently only available for dog walking and potty breaks and/ or feedings. Im not currently available for any type of boarding or overnight visits.

About: I’m a hardworking and caring person who absolutely loves animals, especially cats and dogs. I’ve had plenty of experience caring for pets and pet sitting in the past, and I truly enjoy spending time with them. Dogs bring so much joy into life, and I’d love to bring a little joy into theirs while you’re away. I enjoy running and taking long walks, so if your dog loves exercise, I’d be more than happy to join them. Every dog deserves love, no matter their age, and it would be my pleasure to care for them. Cats, with their calm and unique personalities, hold a special place in my heart too. I’ll make sure your cats feel loved, respected, and cared for while you’re away. Thank you for considering me to look after your furry family members! I currently on a teacher on summer break and have open availability! So take that mid week trip to Disney or to a water park! I will respect the space that I am in. This is your pets territory so I will ensure that it is well respected. Making sure they feel comfortable and safe is my number one priority.

“So sweet and responsive. Has done great with the dogs and is very kind and patient towards them. She was very understanding of my dog’s reactivity and we worked together to find a solution where everyone was comfortable. This has been a such a relief knowing I have someone set up to watch the pups even for just a little bit during the day.”
