House Sitting in South Poinsettia, Sarasota, FL

“I have two large dogs - Siberian husky and a German shepherd. Kimberly responded quickly to my request. She was prompt showing up for a meet and greet with my two girls. She took pictures during her stay at my house to show me how they were doing. Kimberly confirmed her appointment with me the day before the booking.”

“I was so impressed with Kim. She took care of my dog, Nala, for the weekend. It was the first time leaving her with someone she really didn’t know, so she was a little hesitant at first, but Kim was patient with Nala and they soon became good buds! Nala is as Kim says ‘a unique bundle’ and she is completely right and really took great care of her. Kim put me at ease with daily pictures and updates. Also, when I came back home, I really appreciated how it looked just like how I left it. Thank you so much Kim! Will definitely use her services again!”

“Jamie took wonderful care of my aging Molly. I’m not so sure she missed me that much 😊 She sent me text and videos every day. I would certainly call her again when I need a sitter.”

“I've known Christine for many years, and for the past decade, she’s been the only person I trust to care for my golden retrievers when I travel for business—which is often. Christine is not only reliable, but genuinely loving with animals. My dogs light up when they see her, and I leave town with total peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. She’s consistent, caring, and treats them like her own. I couldn’t ask for a better dog sitter.”

“Carolina’s positive attitude and passion for animal care is so refreshing! She loves our dogs like they are her own, and has always gone above and beyond with caring for them. She’s loyal, dedicated and always available when we need her. Truly the best!”

“Kathy was really great and very personable. She followed the instruction sheet to the letter. My pups loved her! When I got home, you couldn't even tell someone had stayed there. She cleaned up after herself and kept the dogs happy. Kathy is flexible and I really felt confident about leaving her in my home with my dogs. She is super! I would highly recommend her to anyone.”

“Ruth was amazing with our dog and cat. She was prompt and very communicative throughout the visit. Our dog required eye drops and medicine and she was able to administer them with no issues. She also cleaned up after the pets and ensured our sheets were clean and ready for us when we came back home on a late flight. Lastly, she even coaxed our very shy cat out from hiding! We appreciate her professionalism and taking such great care of our pets!”

“Sophia is ***** a five-star Dog Walker and caregiver to many dogs, including walking my high strung maltise mix and also a poodle mix. She is also great with large breeds. Lots of care and strong, and can handle any situation with large and small dogs. I highly recommend her for anyone interested in a punctual, faithful, caring and attentive dog walker. She is also excellent with cats and their well-being and care!”

“She took very good care of my little girl.”

“Genesis was so helpful, when my pitbull had 11 puppies. She had four years on animal shelter behavior and knowledge. I would trust her with any of my pets. I would highly recommend her with my eyes closed!”

“I had a great experience with Danielle during her stay at my home watching my dog and cat while I was away. The animals were well cared for and she went above and beyond making sure the house was neat and organized upon my return. Thanks again Danielle for allowing me to have my mind at ease while traveling, knowing the pets were taken care of.”

“Our first experience with Rover, and with having someone -other than family- care for our (very needy) bengal kitty. I’m happy to say, Erin was great! She made us feel completely at ease leaving her alone in our home with Desmond. Desi loved her and looked for her after she left :( She is intuitive, cares a great deal and was super communicative, sending texts regularly, which was very much appreciated. We would absolutely call on Erin any time we need a sitter!”

“We have used Makaila multiple times now to house sit and watch our three dogs and she is the best dog sitter ever!! She’s taken special care of our pups and it truly shown us that she cares. She has always has been attentive and respectful to our home too. Highly recommend.”

“Danielle was amazing! She kept me informed on how my dogs are doing and she made sure to give my elder dog her medication in the mornings and at night and sometimes during the day if she needed it. Danielle was very responsive and she kept my house, clean and tidy, definitely use her again”

About: What sets me apart as a sitter is the genuine love and patience I bring to every animal I care for. I take the time to get to know each pet’s personality and needs, whether that means helping a puppy learn good habits with gentle, consistent training or giving extra love and comfort to a senior dog who just wants a calm, cozy space. I treat every pet like family, and my goal is always to make them feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Pet care is a very important part of my daily and weekly routine. I organize my time around their needs, making sure to include walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of love. I enjoy adjusting my day to give them company and attention, whether it’s for scheduled visits or longer stays. For me, it’s not just a task—it’s one of the best parts of my week! When I care for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I follow their usual routines as closely as possible—whether it’s feeding schedules, walks, playtime, or medication—so they feel at ease. In my home, I provide a calm and pet-friendly environment with plenty of space to relax and play. When I’m in a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and make sure their pet gets personalized care and attention, just like they would if their family were there.

“Cher is wonderful! She provided lots of pictures and communication. She even took care of a few household items for us while we were away. I’ve already booked her for our next trip. ?”

“Nicole was amazing! She cared for our two doxies overnight and have them the best experience! She was on time, communicative and planned a lot of fun activities for the girls. 100% will book her again!”

“Isabelle is wonderful!! She sits for my fur baby Jenson, he loves her. She is kind, and caring and makes animals feel safe and comfortable.”

“Gina is great. She has watched my dogs and cats and is great with them. Had to move and wish I had someone as good as her here.”

About: With me coming to your home your pet is able to stay in an environment they are comfortable with and they will not be stressed out. I can spend as much time as you want with your pet. I have four in my pack, they are rescues, Bassett hound, beagle/lab, pointer, and pom. I am a volunteer for the Suncoast Bassett Rescue and do their home visits here in Sarasota. I can be as flexible as needed. My work with rescuees has allowed me to work with many different breeds. There are breeds that are misunderstood, I want to make sure that our pet and I work well together. It is important that we communicate well while you are away, I look forward to meeting.
