“Isabella is an absolute gem when it comes to pet care. She was prompt, professional, and showed genuine enthusiasm for taking care of my furry companion. Throughout my time away, Isabella kept me updated with regular photos and messages, which provided great peace of mind. It was clear that my dog was not only well taken care of but also genuinely loved and pampered during their time together. Upon my return, I found my dog happy, healthy, and well-adjusted, which speaks volumes about Isabella's dedication and expertise as a dog sitter. I highly recommend Isabella to anyone in need of trustworthy and loving care for their furry family members. She is truly a standout in the world of pet sitting.”

About: Hello! I'm Nilka, and I am thrilled to offer top-notch pet-sitting services in Auburndale, FL. With a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degree from the University of Sydney and nearly a year of experience as an official veterinarian in Australia, your furry friends couldn't be in better hands. I also hold a Bachelor’s in Animal Sciences from the University of Puerto Rico at Mayagüez. Having recently moved back to the States to be closer to family, I'm now preparing for the NAVLE exam to practice veterinary medicine in the U.S. Meanwhile, I'm excited to provide loving and professional care for your pets. Why Choose Me? - Veterinary Expertise: My background ensures I deeply understand your pets' health and well-being. - Extensive Experience: Over 10 years on Care-.com and Madpaws-.com, earning stellar reviews and building lasting client relationships. - Comprehensive Care: From caring for pets to babysitting children and caring for elderly people, I provide attentive and compassionate care. - Diverse Animal Care: I have experience with domestic, large animals, wild/marine, and exotic species, having performed many placements. - Lifelong Animal Lover: Caring for pets has been my passion from a young age, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. - Pet Parent: I have a 5.5-year-old female desexed cat named Motita, a domestic medium-haired tortoiseshell who gets along well with other pets. Your pets will receive not just basic care but also the love and attention they deserve. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! Pet care is an integral part of my daily routine. Each day, I dedicate specific times in the morning, afternoon, and evening to tend to pets, ensuring they receive consistent and attentive care. I structure my day around these times to include feeding, exercise, playtime, and any special care needs. Since I will be home studying and preparing for my NAVLE exam, I have plenty of time to arrange my schedule around pet care appointments, making sure each pet gets the attention they deserve. In my home, I provide a safe, clean, and pet-friendly environment where pets can feel comfortable and secure. I have designated areas for feeding, sleeping, and play, ensuring that each pet's specific needs are met. Safety is a priority, so I ensure all areas are pet-proofed and free from hazards. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their routine closely to maintain consistency and reduce stress for the pet. I ensure the environment is secure, follow any special instructions provided, and maintain open communication with the pet owners. To build trust and transparency, I regularly provide updates with photos and videos of their pets, so owners can see how their pets are doing.
17. Sheryl Lynn W.
“When you have pets like mine who are family, it is not even an option to board them at a facility. They do not like their routine disrupted, loud noises or to be left alone. In fact, it would be very traumatic for my dogs, who probably don’t know they are dogs. So, I have been planning trips around Sheryl Lynn’s schedule for years now. Their little tails wag 100 miles an hour as soon as they see her and I know that they are in the best hands.”
18. Laurie E.
“Laurie made it very easy to communicate what I needed from her as she was visiting my home. Laurie’s ability to come at a short notice was the peace of mind that I needed while I was away.”
19. Mason & Kassandra F.
“I can’t recommend Mason and Kassandra enough! They’ve been lifesavers for me and my two dogs, Max and Ruby. From the moment we met, I could tell they genuinely love and understand animals. They kept me updated with pictures and messages, and when I got home, my dogs were happy and relaxed, which is always the best sign. Mason’s knack for training is incredible—Max learned new tricks while I was away! Kassandra’s gentle care and attention, especially for Ruby’s special dietary needs, were beyond expectations. They’re trustworthy, kind, and simply the best sitters I’ve ever had. I wouldn’t go anywhere else!”
20. Megan R.
“Super impressed with Megan's first drop-in visit for out puppy! When we got home 2 hours later, he was still tuckered out! She is timely, thorough, and truly cares about her cilents' well-being. We'll be rebooking immediately!”
