“She was phenomenal!! Took care of my 3 babies and sent me the cutest photos while I was gone for 12 hours. She even went with their crazy dinner plan. Two of my dogs of sensitive belly’s. So pumpkin and salmon and hemp chews and joint supplements for my ol man 10/10 recommend. Thank you so much Kendall! Oh AND she picked up the mess from my puppy destroying a pillow. Total rockstar”

About: As a dedicated pet sitter with extensive hands-on experience, I bring more than just a love for animals—I’m equipped with specialized skills that make me uniquely qualified to care for pets of all ages and needs. My background includes training sessions with dogs, focusing on socialization and behavior, which means I’m adept at working with puppies to instill positive habits and older dogs who may need gentle patience and care. For senior pets, I understand the importance of providing a calm, comfortable environment, ensuring their routines are maintained while being attentive to any mobility or health-related concerns. Whether your pet needs basic training reinforcement, extra attention, or simply lots of love and companionship, I tailor my approach to meet their individual needs. My goal is always to provide not just care but also enrichment, ensuring your pet feels happy, safe, and loved while you’re away. Pet care is an integral part of my daily and weekly routine, seamlessly blending into my life as both a passion and a commitment. From early morning walks to evening playtime, I prioritize creating a structured, nurturing environment for every pet in my care. During the week, I dedicate time to activities like training sessions, socialization outings at dog parks, and tailored care for pets with unique needs, such as puppies learning new skills or seniors requiring gentle attention. Whether it’s preparing meals, administering medications, or providing mental stimulation, I ensure that every pet feels valued and cared for. My consistent schedule allows me to be flexible and dependable, making it easy to adapt to your pet’s routine and provide them with the stability they need. For me, pet care isn’t just a task—it’s a fulfilling and joyful part of my everyday life. When caring for pets in my home or my client’s home, my priority is always creating a safe, comfortable, and loving environment tailored to each pet’s unique needs. I ensure pets feel like part of the family. They have access to a clean, secure space, with plenty of room to play and relax. I maintain a consistent schedule for meals, walks, and playtime, keeping their routines as close to normal as possible. For pets with specific needs, I provide extra attention, whether it’s reinforcing training, offering enrichment activities, or providing a cozy area for rest, especially for senior pets or those requiring calm spaces.

About: I grew up on an a small animal farm in Florida. Growing up in this environment taught me a lot about hard work, dedication and responsibility. On our farm we had numerous animals, some including goats, donkeys, cow and chickens. In addition we had many horses, cats and dogs. I had many responsibilities on the farm such as feeding, mucking out and general care. I have also had many exciting experience such as helping give birth to foals and baby donkeys. Growing up on this farm helped me realize my love for horses. So I took it up as a full time sport the past 12 years and I loved every second of it. In those 12 years I have had the opportunity to work with different breeds, young horses and ride different disciplines. In addition to working with horses, I helped train and look after my two huskies. These two are very energetic and high maintenance so, it was a tough job at first but now they are very well behaved. Over the past few years I have taken up pet sitting as a part time job. I have been able to pet sit many different breeds of dogs and cats. Furthermore, I have had the opportunity to pet sit horses and other livestock. I currently am looking to take up pet care as a part time job as I am currently home for some time. Therefore, I have plenty time to spend with your pets. Currently I have two dogs and a horse at home. I spend most of my day playing, feeding and providing care to them. I hope to provide your pet and your home with the same exceptional care. With being attentive, responsible and caring. My extensive experience with all types of animals will have me prepared for any situation. I hope to leave you feeling confident and content that I will provide the best care for your pets and home.

“Very responsive and attentive! Highly recommend. Will be scheduling Courtney every time I need drop-in visits for my kitty.”

About: I have 3 dogs of my own and dog sit most of my coworkers dogs. I am reliably and dependable. I will do my best to make you and your dogs feel as comfortable as possible! I am available anytime Friday-Saturday. Sunday-Thursdays I can make accommodations depending on the situation and flexibility of both of our schedules if you need me. I am a very loving dog mom and I just truly enjoy being around animals and getting to know them. Dogs are my true passion and I will take care of your fur babies just like I do my own.

About: With over 5 years of experience as a veterinary technician, I bring a level of medical knowledge and hands-on care that goes beyond typical pet sitting. I’m trained to handle pets with special medical needs, from administering medications and injections to monitoring chronic conditions and post-surgical care. I also specialize in both puppy training and senior pet care, offering structured routines for young pets and gentle, attentive support for older companions—including mobility assistance, pain management routines, and dietary adjustments. Whether your pet is a playful pup, a senior with special needs, or requires medical attention, I provide reliable, compassionate care tailored to their unique needs—so you can have peace of mind while you're away. I’m now focusing full-time on pet care, so my schedule is flexible and designed to prioritize your pet’s routine, comfort, and well-being. I plan my days around walks, feedings, enrichment activities, and one-on-one attention. I also include time for health monitoring, special care instructions, and personalized updates for pet parents—so you’re always in the loop. Whether it's daily drop-ins, extended stays, or last-minute needs, pet care isn’t just something I fit in—it's my daily rhythm. When caring for pets in their own home, I follow your specific instructions closely to maintain their familiar routine and environment. I provide feeding, walking, playtime, and medication as needed, and keep your home secure and tidy while you’re away. I also provide regular updates with photos and notes, so you feel connected and confident that your pet is happy and healthy. No matter the location, my priority is your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness, tailored to their unique personality and needs.

About: I used to walk, shower, and train my own pets as well as a few neighborhood animals. I worked in a pet store so I have lots of animal care training. I understand body language of the animals to prevent accidents. I have potty trained puppies as well as taken care of senior dogs. I currently am a full time college student and a seasonal worker so I will have plenty of time to take perfect care of your pets. Pet sitting and/or walking will fit perfectly into my schedule. I will always make sure that your pets are on leashes when they are being brought outside as well as paying careful attention to any other animals that could possibly come out as I walk out of the house. I will pay attention to my surroundings and make sure that your pets are safe and never feel threatened.

About: I started caring for dogs over 20 years ago when I was working with a vet in Colorado doing a pet nutrition study with her. She was just starting a doggie daycare and I fell in love with the whole concept. When I moved back home to Ocala in 2007 there were no dog friendly places like there were in Colorado so I decided to open an in home dog daycare. I’ve been doing that for the last 18 years. I have years of experience in dog nutrition, dog boarding and daycare as well working with dogs with special needs whether emotional or due to abuse. I have experience with many different health issues in dogs such as epilepsy, diabetes, megaesophagus, and more. I’m am qualified to give injections, medication, and specialized care for dogs recovering from surgeries, injuries, and physical disabilities. I also have experience with pregnant and nursing moms and their puppies. Pet care is my full time job and life. I do not have any other job. I do have to keep a pretty organized schedule :) My home has a 6’ privacy fence and is set up for dogs to feel that they are at their second home. All dogs coming into my home are fully screened and temperament tested. All vaccinations, recent negative fecal, and proof of preventatives are required before staying. I do provide puppy care in owner’s homes, but not in my home until they are fully vaccinated. I do stay pretty full with boarding, but I am looking to expand and add the service of in-your-home visits mid-day during the week for dogs that have to stay home all day while mom and dad work.

About: I’ve taken care of multiple breeds of dogs and have always had a special place in my heart for them. Having a job like this is a dream of mine as I would like to open a rescue of my own one day. I have open availability and I’m open to discuss any time you might need! Whether it be dropping by and feeding or just checking up on your furry family. I can care for your pets in my home or yours. I have an averaged size yard, three boys, and a chihuahua here who love to play with new friends!

About: I have had many many exposures to animals. Including family pets, my own pets, and even working in a doggy daycare center. I believe I have a big heart and would be the most loving and compassionate towards your pets :) I have three beautiful dogs in my home. I take care of them daily mostly by myself. This includes feeding, walking, grooming, and of course loving! My parents have had three or more animals in the home ever since I was born. And there was a period of time in my adult life where I was taking care of five dogs in one home all at once. And multiple senior dogs with medications and special needs. I would love to watch your kiddos (pets are kids too ;)) when you are away. Giving lots of love, walks, feeding, letting them outside, and even brushing/ trimming nails if you needed! Spending time with animals is my biggest stress relief, so really you would be doing me a favor by allowing me to hang out with your pets!

“Pam D was awesome! We had a death in the family and had to leave the next day for a trip that would have us away for 14 hours. Our sweet cat Simon is not used to being alone for more than a few hours. Pam came the same day I contacted her to meet Simon who took to her right away, just as did we. Pam is very nice and obviously responsible. She was here when she said she would be, she sent us photos of Simon playing and eating and an adorable selfie of the two of them (I don’t know how she got him to pose for that one! Lol). Anyway, we were so relieved knowing Simon was okay while we were away. We absolutely highly recommend Pam. We were totally comfortable trusting her in our home and with our dear Simon. Thank you again Pam. 😊”
