House Sitting in Port Saint Joe

About: Accepting 2025 Holiday Clients! Book early to avoid blackout dates. Animal care has always been a part of my life. I volunteered at my local humane society for 10 years fostering and doing admin work, even vetting potential new adoptive pet parents. In my home I have my chow/golden mix dog, Baylee, and my indoor farm cat, Iris. They are wildly spoiled. I joined Rover because when I really needed it for a trip there was no one in my area. I offer true in-home boarding, your pet will have the same day they would have at home, no kennels, no crowding, just my home with a fenced yard and a comfy sofa. I am based in Port St. Joe, but please inquire for rates in more distant locations. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, cats, and can handle medication. I have a fully fenced back yard and the ability to keep boarded dogs in a separate bedroom from my own pets. I have experience with all pets including fish, birds, reptiles, and smaller pets such as hedgehogs and sugar gliders. I know how to handle these pets and can follow your specific instructions so your pets receive the care you want.

About: I have owned cats and dogs my whole life. From raising newborn kittens, to feral cats and shelter dogs, I've made sure that every pet that has come into my life has been well cared for and loved. I will care for your pet in the same manner and help out when life gets hectic and you need to call an extra hand in to help out with animal care! I currently work full-time Monday through Friday. I get off of work around 4:00, and will be available for afternoon walks and care for your pet! I am also available on the weekends as I do not work then. I will respect the home property of my clients and make sure that the place looks as clean, if not cleaner, than it did before they left.

About: I’ve had animals my entire life and truly consider them family. I currently have two Labrador Retrievers and have cared for pets of all breeds, sizes, and personalities over the years. As a big dog lover, I’m especially comfortable with large breeds, energetic pups, and strong walkers—but I also provide gentle, patient care for seniors and pets who need a little extra attention. What sets me apart is my lifelong hands-on experience and genuine love for animals. I understand pet behavior, routines, and the importance of consistency, exercise, and affection. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual needs, whether that’s puppy playtime and basic training reinforcement, medication administration, senior care, or simply providing companionship and reassurance while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and comfort are always my top priorities, and I care for every animal as if they were my own. I am currently working from home. I have ample time to fit your loved furry family member into my schedule. I am very flexible throughout the week and weekends. I provide attentive, personalized care based on each pet’s routine, needs, and personality. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in my client’s home, I focus on maintaining consistency so pets feel safe and comfortable. In my client’s home, I follow their established schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, litter box care, and medications. I make sure pets receive plenty of affection, exercise, and mental stimulation while keeping their environment clean and stress-free. I also provide regular updates, photos, and check-ins so owners feel confident and at ease while they’re away. When pets are in my home, they are treated like part of the family in a safe, loving environment. I ensure they get appropriate exercise, enrichment, rest, and supervision, while respecting any special instructions, dietary needs, or behavioral considerations. Above all, I care for every pet as if they were my own, prioritizing their safety, comfort, and happiness at all times.

About: What sets me apart is that I have cared for pets my entire life, so being around animals comes very naturally to me. I am patient, attentive, and make sure every pet feels comfortable, safe, and loved while in my care. I also understand the importance of keeping pets on their normal routines and maintaining a clean environment for them. I'm currently going to school part-time, so I'll have plenty of time to play and take care of all your pets. I'm available for boarding on weekends at any time. I provide attentive and reliable care by making sure pets are comfortable, safe, and well cared for in both my home and my client’s home. Since I have an indoor dog, I have experience maintaining a clean and organized environment while staying on top of feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and giving pets the attention they need.

About: “With over 15 years of hands-on experience in dog care, I bring both professional expertise and genuine love to every pup I care for.

Caring for pets at home or in a client’s home depends on the type of service being provided.

About: I haven’t had the opportunity to take care of pets that weren’t mine. However, I do currently have two dogs and in the past I had a cat, ferret, yorkie, and pitbull. I’m currently in college, so I have time after classes and on the weekends and if planned ahead of time I can also do between class time. I would care for your pets the way I would want someone to treat and care for mine. I would listen and learn if they need any special care or diets they might need. I would try my best to build a trusting relationship with your pets so everything runs smoothly.
