House Sitting in Saint Teresa

“Shafika took amazing care of our dog and home. She was super communicative and went above and beyond to take care of Lucca (deshedding!) and our house (washed the sheets!). Would absolutely hire again!”

About: I’ve been a dog (and occasionally cat) owner for over 30 years. I’ve raised puppies and cared for them in their senior years, as well. My latest rescue, Darcy Grace, passed away this year. I work part time close to my home. I have flexibility to leave and return to work when needed. I look forward to having dog smiles and cat purring in my life again. I have a fenced in yard with plenty of shade trees for outside lounging. I have a doggie door that can be open or closed whichever you prefer. I will follow your instructions for care and give lots of love while you are away.

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.

“Andrew is great! He really cared about our dog and frequently updated us on how the dog was doing. He also left the house spotless. We will definitely hire him again.”

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is a lifelong bond with animals and years of hands-on experience that began when I was just 4 years old. I grew up living with my grandfather, who always had five dogs at a time. Being surrounded by animals from such a young age taught me the importance of consistent, compassionate care. Over the years, I’ve been trusted by family, friends, and neighbors to care for their pets, and I treat every animal like part of the family. When my parents gifted me my own puppy, I took formal puppy training classes to better understand behavior and effective training techniques—skills I still use with every dog I care for. Beyond puppy care, I have extensive experience with senior and special needs dogs. I helped care for my grandfather’s dog who was blind, deaf, and had a tumor, making sure he felt safe, loved, and comfortable every day. Currently, I’m caring for my own senior dog who has cancer. I manage her treatment, including chemotherapy appointments and administering medication, with patience and dedication. This experience has deepened my ability to care for aging or ill pets with empathy and attentiveness. Whether it’s basic training, special medical care, or just keeping them company, I’m passionate about making sure every pet feels at home, safe, and well cared for. I’m currently waiting to start college and will be home for the next month, which gives me a very flexible schedule. I’m more than happy to adjust my routine to fit your pet’s needs—whether that means walks, playtime, feedings, or just keeping them company. Your pet’s comfort and care are my top priority, and I’ll work with you to make sure they get exactly the attention they need while you’re away. When caring for pets—whether in my home or a client’s—I make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for at all times. I'm highly attentive and have no problem going the extra mile, whether that means long walks, park visits, beach outings, or just lots of playtime and companionship. If caring for pets in my home, I offer a secure and comfortable environment. I have a fenced-in yard for safe outdoor play and live in a neighborhood with a dog park just minutes away. I’m happy to take dogs on walks, jogs, or runs, and I’m always ready for a good game of tug-of-war or fetch. If I’m caring for your pet in your home, you can count on me to be reliable, punctual (I aim to arrive early), and respectful of your space. I can quickly get to your home in case of emergencies and will follow any specific instructions you provide. I'm comfortable with crate training and can easily manage routines around feeding, medication, or special care. No matter the location, my goal is to ensure your pets feel happy, safe, and cared for 24/7.

About: I offer flexible availability to fit your schedule, including mornings, evenings, and weekends. I work part -time for JC Penney Portraits. (We photo dogs toooo) Whether it’s routine care or last-minute needs, I’m happy to accommodate your pets. I’ve cared for pets at every stage of life — from tiny, wobbly newborn pups to my own 18-year-old beagle. I understand the gentle, patient attention that young puppies need, and I’m experienced with the special care, comfort, and understanding that senior dogs deserve. Whether your pet is just starting out or enjoying their golden years, I’m here to give them the love and support they need. I offer flexible availability to fit your schedule, including mornings, evenings, and weekends. Whether it’s routine care or last-minute needs, I’m happy to accommodate your pets. I make sure they have consistent routines — regular meals, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of rest. Animals thrive on structure, and I bring that same reliability when caring for others’ pets too. Pets need more than just food — they need stimulation, love, and fun! I make time every day for walks, play, and cuddles. When I care for your pet, I’ll make sure they’re not just taken care of — they’re also happy. I understand how much you love your furry family. When I care for your pet, I’ll treat them like my own — with kindness, patience, and attention. You can count on me to give honest updates, follow instructions, and truly care.

“After being away in a challenging situation , I was so relieved to find my pups happy, and my house in great shape- ThankYou Abby!!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 10. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk, feed and bathe their pets. I’ve work with dogs in the professional field training dogs for 5 years now. I’m currently working part time, so I have plenty of time to play and take care of your pets . I am always available throughout the week. I take care of the client pet by giving them attention, playing with them feeding them , taking them for walks , and most importantly keeping them healthy and hydrated.

About: Been around dogs, cats, gerbils, and birds throughout my life. All pets are considered family. They need love, respect, and guidance, too. I have walked dogs, groomed cats, cleaned out kennels, cages, and cat boxes, and play is important even for older pets. Most of my days have availability for pet care. A good time for care could be early morning, mid day, or late afternoon/evening just keep communication clear and timely. I have two cats who require biscuit making cuddles and play everyday. I groom their fur and shorten their nails as needed. Feeding for them is twice a day and their play incorporates exercise.

About: Beginning in my preteen years, I have cared for various breeds of dogs, from newborn puppies to full-grown dogs. I'm confident in understanding what your furry friend needs or wants, whether a bath, bathroom break, playtime, dinner, or snuggles. I’m a travel nurse with Fusion Medical, and I recently decided to move back home to Tallahassee. As of now, I can accommodate any scheduling needs. I am taking a break from fieldwork and will focus on advancing my career. Sadly, I can’t accommodate your furry friends in my home at this time. However, I can accommodate their needs in their own safe place. I can also continue and maintain their care plan according to your wishes.

“Jordyn took excellent care of my dog while I was out of town and sent picture/video updates all throughout. I would definitely recommend her to others!”

About: Pet sitting is more than just taking care of an animal for a few days. It's about giving the pet love, attention, and trust while their owners are away. In my 5+ years of experience as a pet sitter, I understand the importance of maintaining the pets' routine and treating them with the same care as their owners would. I have looked after pets of all shapes and sizes from dogs to cats, to fish, and even exotics such as geckos and bearded dragons. I am well aware of the different personalities, temperaments, and needs of the various animals I have cared for. My responsibilities during pet sitting include feeding, watering, walking, playing, and administering medicine if needed. I am dependable, dedicated, and will go above and beyond to ensure my furry clients' happiness while their owners are away. I pride myself on going the extra mile with healthy activities like long walks or games of Frisbee to stimulate exercise and excitement. My love for animals is what initially brought me to become a pet sitter and guardianship of their well-being is my top priority. You can trust that your pet will be in capable and caring hands. I work a full time job, but I always make the time to take care of the furry friends who need it. I make sure to spend extra time when I have it available. I make sure to follow the instructions provided, as well as handle anything that needs taken care of such as cleaning up messes when there is an accident. I always take the time to take pictures to send to show your furry friend/child is doing alright while you’re away.

About: Although most people see this as a job, i see pet-sitting as a fun and exciting opportunity to make new friends all with their own personalities:)! Seeing as i don’t really find myself going out much now-a-days, pet sitting seems like the only right option needed to be taken way sooner. I believe in everyone having their own schedules for their babies, so i try to keep their routines to allow more comfort for all parties.

About: I’m experienced and very caring for a variety of pets, including cats, dogs and fish. I currently have two German short haired pointers so I know how to handle energetic dogs. I provide reliable, loving care tailored to each pets needs like feeding, walking, playtime, medications, and lots of attention. Your pets comfort and safety always comes first. I currently have an internship only three days a week,but will be available in afternoons. We can work together to figure out the schedule you need for your pets. I have two German shorthaired pointers which I love with my whole heart. I feed them regularly, let them outside in our backyard and take them for walks.

“Lauren was great!! Very communicative and flexible. She was fantastic with our pup and is very knowledgeable when it comes to care and training of dogs. Highly recommend using Lauren for everything from dog walking to house sitting!”
