Cat Sitting in Placida

“Shari took excellent care of my two kitties when I had a last minute trip to take. She was on time and sent adorable photos during her visits. The ex-feral even came out to meet her which says a lot about her great kitty energy. I felt confident that they were safe in her care. It's clear she loves animals. Will be asking for Shari's help in the future!”

“We love Tammy. We have someone who loves animals and her job. Highly recommend.”

About: I’ve had pets most of my life, and my heart belongs to my two doodles—Phoebe, a 50lb labradoodle, and Faith, a 15lb mini goldendoodle. I understand the needs of both large and small dogs, including exercise, routine, and affection. What sets me apart is my calm, reliable presence and attention to detail—skills I honed during my career in law enforcement. I’m especially comfortable with dogs that need structure or a little extra patience, including seniors or those with unique personalities. Whether it’s a walk, drop-in, or extended stay, your pet will be in caring, capable hands. I'm retired, so I have a very open and flexible schedule. That means I can give your pet the time, attention, and consistency they deserve—whether it's early morning walks, mid-day check-ins, or overnight stays. Your pet’s routine becomes my priority. Safety and trust are top priorities for me. In your home, I always respect your space and follow your pet’s routine closely—feeding, walking, medications, and comfort needs. I stay calm and attentive, which helps pets feel secure and relaxed. You can count on me to show up, stay in touch, and treat your pet like my own.

“Bob was very attentive with caring for our cats. He provided pictures to us while we were away that gave us the peace of mind and reassurance that our cats were happy.”

About: With over 30 years of experience, caring for both cats and dogs, I understand that pets aren’t just animals – they’re family. I’ve cared for pets of all ages, sizes and personalities, including a beloved cat and dog with special needs. I’m comfortable giving medications, handling mobility challenges, and providing the extra patience and attention that some pets require. Whether your pup needs energetic walks, playtime, and belly rubs, or your cat prefers a calm lap, and gentle care, I tailor my approach to each pets needs. I treat every pet like my own because I know how much it takes to leave them in someone else’s hands. You can count on me for reliable, loving, and attentive care that gives you peace of mind and gives your pet a happy, stress-free experience while you’re away. Caring for pets is a natural part of my daily life. It’s something I genuinely enjoy and look forward to. Whether it’s morning walks to start the day,midday check-in for some planned attention, or evening cuddles, I’m used to building my schedule around the needs of animals. Now that I have more flexibility in my day-to-day life, I have the time and energy to dedicate to giving your pet the care, companionship, and consistency they deserve. Pet care isn’t just something I do-it’s something I love being part of my everyday routine. From keeping feedings on track to providing regular exercise and affection I treat each pet as a priority in my day. When caring for a pet in a client’s home, I follow their usual routine to ensure comfort and consistency. I provide fresh food and water, go for walks or playtime (as needed), give any required medications, and offer plenty of love and attention. I keep the environment, clean, follow all instructions closely, and treat your home and pet with the utmost respect and care.

About: I am a lifetime pet lover and have cared for my family pets and my own now for over 20+ years. I treat your pet like family while you enjoy yourself knowing your pet is in good hands. Throughout my life, my deep love for dogs has been a cornerstone of my experiences and relationships. Having cherished my 15-year-old Shih Tzu-Yorkie named Winston, and my 18-year-old Shih Tzu-Yorkie, Wee Maggie, I have developed a profound appreciation for the companionship and joy that these furry friends bring. Now, with Nike, our soon-to-be four-year-old Labradoodle, I continue to embrace the responsibilities and rewards of pet ownership. My dedication to animals extends beyond my own pets; I am available for dog walking, doggie daycare and overnight dog care. I have a flexible work at home schedule and am open to all opportunities to assist with your pet care needs. Please feel free to contact me with special requests. I would care for your pet overnight in my or your own home so it is at ease and is not further disrupted. My home is always available.

“Very attentive and loving towards our 4 cats, she tried to get the shy ones to engage as well.”

“Theresa took great care of our not-very-friendly cat. She visited him for a week we were out of town and kept in touch with us daily with notes and pictures. She soon found his favorite toy and won him over by the second day. Our cat (name OP) is not a great traveler, so he got a break from long rides in a car and we didn't have to worry about him having an "accident" in the car or wandering off when we had to stop. We intend to book her again.”

“Maureen did a wonderful job taking care of our cat G while we were away. She sent pictures each day and was very specific about how she was doing. I felt very at ease knowing she was well cared for! I will definitely be using her again when we travel.”

“We could not have been happier with Dana’s drop ins! We went on a trip and it was going to be the longest we had been away in a while so we were a little anxious about leaving our two cats . Dana sent pictures and an update every time she stopped by which was great. Our cats loved her and will definitely be in contact when we go out of town again . She also went above and beyond to bring in any packages we had received & offered to water our plants ! 10/10 she was great”

Daniella S.

“First of all my thanks for caring for my very spoiled cat-boy. He was happy and well groomed. Thank you for that. Gretchen made certain to attend to details and took great care of Biggie when we went on a cruise. She even left a note about his sneezing. Not unusual for him and I’ll take him again to be checked out. Absolutely wonderful care and no doubt she loves animals with all her heart.”

About: I have had both cats and dogs My entire life. After 16 AMAZING years with my dogs Axel and Lugnut, I have found myself with an empty nest. I'm not quite ready to adopt another yet, it is just too soon. However, I would love to hang out with your dog (or dogs!). I have experience with dogs both big and small, young and old, and my sweet girl who just passed was deaf, so I have experience with special needs. I have successfully fostered high risk dogs helping them find their perfect forever home. 🐾 I am a stay at home caretaker for my father-in-law, so I can provide around the clock care for your sweet puppers. I am also quite active, and love to take walks, so your good boy or girl will think they are on vacation! I have an unfenced yard, and I live within a 3 minute walk to a large park. My neighborhood is quiet and is sheltered from busy streets. I would love to have your dog come visit!
