About: Hi, my name is Noelle and I’m a paramedic and dog trainer-in-training who loves dogs and cats! I have a total of 14 years of experience caring for dogs, both my own and other people’s. In my time dog sitting I have worked with a variety of dogs from puppy to senior, low energy to high energy, special needs, and everything in between. I’ve had three dogs so far over the course of my life. I had one childhood dog from 9 months of age until she passed at 13. My other childhood dog had Cushing’s syndrome at the end of his life so I became accustomed to all those special needs. Nowadays I am solely responsible for my fur child, Jack, who is a rescue that I’ve trained and nurtured from a skinny and skittish stray to a confident and loving companion. The little man also has medical needs and quirks of his own. Jack is the light of my life and I take a tremendous amount of pride in the care and love I provide him. Whether canine or feline, I will love and care for your furry bestie just like my own! I am in between jobs at the moment and am grabbing at spare cash everywhere I can in this time that I don’t have a steady income, so my schedule is wide open! As I learn to train dogs, my primary goal is to build a positive relationship with your furry bestie so that they feel safe and cared for. Some safety guidelines I follow strictly include always leashing when off your property, not allowing your dog to meet other dogs unless given express permission ahead of time by you for your dog to meet a specific dog, and following any routines set by you so that your dog has a seamless transition. If you have any training you are working on with your dog, I am more than happy to help out with that. I follow a balanced training model that incorporates positive reinforcement first and foremost and then fair and minimally aversive corrections on an as needed basis. Corrections are tailored to the dog’s specific style of learning and I closely monitor feedback and body language to ensure that the dog is understanding what I’m communicating without enduring undue stress, and afterwards I direct the dog to the behavior I want and reward when they display it. When teaching humans, we teach them what to do as well as what not to do, so I do the same with dogs. If I find anything that happens to work for your dog and what you’re working on, I will communicate it to you so you can employ those methods yourself. Upon request, I would be happy to meet with you either in person or virtually to further demonstrate any techniques for no extra charge, as I find the experience as well as helping you foster a positive relationship with your dog infinitely valuable.

About: Hi! I'm your local Sanford pet sitter/walker. I have over 20 years of experience caring for dogs, cats, hamsters, small domesticated birds, and chickens. In my home, your dog will have a place to relax, play, and be happy. Your pup won’t just be a guest—they’ll be family. No cramped kennels or long hours alone. They’ll have the run of the house, plenty of outdoor time, belly rubs, treats, and all the love they could ask for. Need to book last minute? If I’ve got the space, I’m happy to make it work! I also offer house-sitting, drop-in visits, pick-up/drop-off, and dog walking, within range of service. A brief Meet & Greet is required prior to sitting for all new clients to assure compatibility. Every morning we take walks and frequently a second walk after work. Since I work remotely and am home nearly all the time, your dog will always have company and attention throughout the day. We have a limit of 3 dogs so your dog gets the full care and attention it needs. We have policies in place to make sure dogs, who are escape artists, aren’t able to make a run for it, we space feeding time and walking time as research has shown eating prior to a meal can cause bloating and other complications. It’s my mission your dog is safe at all times so you can worry less when your dog is not with you.

About: Hello! I’ve lived with and taken care of pets since I was a little kid. I currently have two orange boy cats that I take care of, and some weekends I will volunteer at the animal shelter. I am definitely free most evenings and weekend as well. On week days my work schedule is pretty flexible so I can make most days work. I take everything very seriously when watching pets and taking care of them. I hope to provide a safe and caring environment and demeanor for pets

About: I’ve always loved being around animals. I have two pets of my own and can assure yours will have a loving and caring environment when I’m watching them. I work from home so I am able to provide 24/7 care for your pet! I am also able to take my work with me if needed. While caring for pets at my home, I ensure they have an environment that makes them feel safe and loved. If I’m needed at your home, I do my best to make sure they have everything they need and provide as much interaction as possible.

About: I had the joy of growing up with a dog from childhood through college and also caring for birds. I’ve always loved seeing animals feel safe, cozy, and free to play. Every pet has their own personality, and I truly enjoy getting to know what makes them light up. It’s a joy to offer this service not just to care for animals, but to serve people by giving their pets the love and attention they deserve while they’re away. I'm a freelancer with a flexible schedule, so I'm home often and available for frequent walks or check-ins. I live near parks and dog parks and love exploring safe, fun spots where pets can play and enjoy fresh air. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, and I’d love to include your pup in my daily rhythm while caring for them. I don’t have a fenced yard, but I live in a quiet, pet-friendly area where many neighbors walk their dogs. I’m near a couple of lakes and peaceful paths, perfect for safe, leashed walks. Even if a dog is well-trained, I prefer to keep them on a leash to ensure their safety. My goal is always to create a calm, trusting environment where pets feel secure and cared for. I hope your pet friend will feel at home!

About: Everyone has that friend that when they have a get together, the friend is playing with the kids and pets. I’m that person. I grew up with both cats and dogs. I currently have two dogs - a rescued springer spaniel and her puppy (springer/lab mix) that I rescued a few years later when he was returned to the rescue. I also have experience with large breed dogs (Great Pyrenees). I have experience with young and old dogs, along with distribution of medicine. I will only ever board/do doggy day care with one family’s dog(s) in my home. I do not like to mix family’s dogs since I don’t know how they will react to new friends. I’m not the person that will go on a run with your dog, but I will play with them. I will walk them. I will give lots of scratches and play with toys with them. I’ll treat them as my own very spoiled dogs! I’ll make sure that they are well loved and cared for when you’re busy! I’m currently working from home but have a flexible schedule. I am free any time on nights and weekends and can usually adjust anything as needed during the day! I have a fenced yard and two friendly pups who love to play. I keep my dogs crated when I’m not home. If I’m coming to your home, I’ll follow any rules you have for pet care!

About: I have grown up around animals, mostly dogs and cats from the age of 6-7 and have never been without a furry family member since, and I am now 28. I wouldn't have had it any other way! Growing up with these angels have only made my love and advocacy grow more and more. I am well equipped for basic care and needs such as, walking, picking up after with no restrictions, playing, following feeding schedules, routines, etc for all ages,(puppies-senior) and looking after furbabies that have also just has surgery. I have also frequently volunteered at the Miami-dade pet adoption & protection center prior to moving to central florida 3 years ago. I am fortunate to make my own schedule, so I will be able to fit your babies care into my flexible daily routine with little to no restriction. I have 2 loving furbabies of my own, Harley (6 going on 7) and Kiedis (1 1/2) and they are both couch potatoes to say the least. Yes, my dogs lounge and sleep on either our couch or bed EVERY day/night :) My next goal is for our next home to have a huge yard! I potty trained both of them (and one of my childhood dogs that Harley grew up with) but Kiedis still has his safe space/crate for when we are out of the house. They watch cartoons when we are gone and I have their nanny-cam in case i need to peek in on them!

About: I have cared for dogs and all animals my whole life. Giving back and helping furry friends is something that truly makes my heart happy! After rescuing my now pup from off the streets, my goal is to make every furry friend feel safe, loved and all the joy they deserve. Im currently in a school program that makes it a bit hard to have a regular job I can attend. My schedule can possibly change every so often, so I am able to dedicate the time to your pets needs! I have a pup myself that is crate trained and well behaved! I love spending my time with him and making sure he is never alone for long periods of time and I would make sure to provide the same to your furry friends as well!

Hannah K.
“I wholeheartedly recommend my best friend as a pet sitter. For the past 8 years, she has helped raise my own fur babies with the same love, care, and dedication as if they were her own. Her experience raising her two pets, makes her exceptionally trustworthy and dependable. She's not only attentive and responsible, but also deeply compassionate. Any pet would be lucky to be in her care.”


Naomi W.
“My friend is truly amazing with animals. She’s cared for dogs, birds, and pets with special needs—always with patience, love, and responsibility. She once helped care for a dog with a liver condition who needed daily meds and frequent walks, and the owners were so thankful for her dedication. Her experience, calm nature, and genuine love for animals make her someone I’d trust with any pet. I wholeheartedly recommend her as a pet sitter or dog walker!”
