Cat Sitting South Sarasota

“First time having Kim for a cat sitter. The first day, my boyfriend & I met her she asked about getting the mail. Which,was nice so we didn't have to worry about canceling it. I told her that I chop my cat's food and she sent me some pictures of her sculptures that she did. They were very cute one of them was a butterfly. She also took the trash down on trash day. We will definitely use her again!”

“Carolina was wonderful again with our kitties. She was attentive and took special care to accommodate their picky eating habits. Her communication is also excellent. We would absolutely recommend Carolina to other pet parents!”

About: I have had dogs all my life and currently have 2 dogs. My dogs are my babies and I will treat yours just like my own. I have crate trained young dogs to caring for senior pups as well. I am reliable and trust worthy. I work remotely and can stop in or walk morning and afternoon during the week and anytime on Saturday or Sunday as needed for your pet. I have dogs of my own and need to come to your home to take care of your pets. My older dog is hit or miss getting along with other dogs so I will not be able to have your pets at my house.

“Brandi and Cayden have been doing drop-in visits with our dog Opal for a week now. Opal is receiving all of the care, loving, and attention she could need. Brandi and Cayden are communicative, prompt, and very easy to work with.”

“Stephany was so lovely to work with and got along great with Mishu. My cat came home well-groomed and calm as if she had had a wonderful time. I definitely recommend Stephany to care for any of your fur babies and would love to work with her again in the future.”

“Nicole is by far the best sitter that I have worked with on rover. She is extremely respectful and responsible but was also flexible to Mishu and I’s needs. She is very sweet and got Mishu to warm up to her a lot. I knew my cat loved her because when I came home she didn’t seem scared or anxious as if she had felt lonely while I was gone. The house was left absolutely perfect and spotless. What a wonderful experience! Thank you Nicole, you are welcome back anytime.”

About: In regards to my experience with personal pet care. From a young age, I have raised and help nurture animals in all stages of their life. Along with dogs I have provided care for other animals such as: Cats, Fish, and Horses of various shapes and sizes. LGBTQIA friendly 💖🏳️‍🌈 I am currently a Freelance Character Designer and Illustrator, so my schedule is pretty flexible. Let me know what's up and I'll probably be down. I care for your pets as if they were my own. Your pets wellbeing and comfort is a top priority! Also I maintain and keep schedules and plans in place for your pet; along with monitoring health, behavior and notifying pet parents of any change that arises while in my care. I want to be 100% transparent with everything that goes on in your absence to keep you at a peace of mind.

“Nicholas took care of my fur baby while I was out of town for a week. He gave me daily updates, and was very communicative. Nicholas is a true professional when it comes to pet care!”

“Tracy is top-notch. She has helped me out a number of times, is very reliable and Ginger loves her. As a cat Dad I am grateful and feel assured when I have to go out of town. Highly recommended and appreciated.”

“Our Coco thoroughly enjoyed her vacation with Stephanie, and we will definitely be using her again in the future. Her home was lovely and perfect for our cat. Stephanie kept us updated daily on Coco and how she was adjusting and also sent daily pictures. We felt very confident in leaving our "baby" with Stephanie. Coco requires extra feedings and medications and Stephanie was happy to accommodate us with those extra needs. If you're looking for someone dependable and caring Stephanie is your person!”

About: - Currently, I WFH part time so I have flexibility to take care of your fur baby. - I have a lovely bunny (Bunzo) that I had with me for 3.5 years and have treated him like a prince. He gets unlimited hay, greens, and a couple treats daily. He runs around inside the house from time to time, but likes to relax under my bed. - I have friends and family whom have dogs and cats that I have taken care of over the years. - Personality-wise: my friends and family would say I am very loving, caring, and bubbly so I will show that same love to every pet I meet and care for. Currently, I am a part time WFH accountant. I work 20 hours a week, that includes working one day in person on Thursdays 1-5pm. When I am home, I have the ability the take your pet for a walk or monitor them outside in the fenced backyard. I can bring my laptop/phone around to do work on the go too. We have a fenced-in backyard where your pet can roam around. I will have my bunny around in the house, but I can keep him in a separate room to roam around, if need be. I will be happy to walk dogs in nearby spots they enjoy.

“Briana always does an excellent job caring for our two cats when we go out of town. She’s been so easy to work with and delivers the utmost care to our cats!”

About: I specialize in shy, nervous, and sensitive pets who need a little extra patience and understanding. My calm energy helps animals feel safe and open up at their own pace. Even the ones who “don’t like people” usually end up loving me 🐾 I plan my weekly routine around my pet care commitments to ensure reliability and consistency. I’m organized, punctual, and mindful of each pet’s schedule, whether that’s feeding times, walks, or medication. I take this responsibility seriously and make sure every pet receives dependable, quality care. Your pet’s safety and emotional comfort are my top priorities. I create a calm, secure environment and take the time to understand each pet’s unique personality, especially those who are shy or sensitive. I’m very attentive, gentle, and communicative, so you can feel completely at ease while your pet is in my care.

“Paula did a most excellent job taking care of the kitties. I will definitely use her again. She was more reliable than the family I had over during the weekend”

About: I've owned a variety of dogs of every breed and size, (Gr8Danes, pekingese, doodles, terriers, the list goes on) all from a very young age. I've had puppies, to special needs seniors... All of whom have different skills sets required for their care. Im currently a stay at home Mom. One of my children is a 2 time cancer survivor and requires a flexible schedule due to her weakened immunity. My schedule is pretty packed as a busy mom before and after school... but my availability during the day and on weekends is usually fairly open for visits, walks, cuddles or any type of care. I'm more than able to follow any schedules you may want to follow. Including eating/medication times as I know and respect how sensitive some animals are.

“Denise was prompt and quick to answer. She did great taking care of our dog!”

Briana N.

About: I’ve always been an animal lover and have experience caring for pets of different personalities, ages, and needs. I understand that every pet has their own routine, preferences, and quirks, and I’m happy to follow their normal schedule as closely as possible. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, giving lots of attention and affection, and making sure pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I’m also a big believer in communication, so I’m happy to send regular updates and photos so you know your pet is doing well. Whether your pet is energetic and loves to play or prefers a quiet day with lots of cuddles, I’m happy to give them the attention and care they need. 🐾❤️ My schedule varies, but I have flexibility throughout the week and can work with your pet’s routine. I’m available for daytime walks and drop-in visits, and I’m happy to coordinate a schedule that gives your pet the attention, exercise, and care they need while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’ll follow your instructions carefully and keep your pet in a safe, comfortable environment. I understand every pet has different routines and needs, and I’m happy to accommodate feeding schedules, medications, walks, playtime, and other care instructions. I’ll treat your home and your pet with the same care and respect I would want for my own.

About: I’m a certified Veterinary Technician with hands-on clinical experience, which sets me apart from most sitters who don’t have a medical background. I can recognize early signs of illness, injury, or distress that an untrained eye might miss — and I know how to respond calmly if something comes up. Specific skills I bring: • Medication administration — comfortable with oral and topical meds, including multi-pet or complex schedules • Senior pet care — experienced with mobility issues, medication timing, and the extra patience older pets need • Puppy care — house training reinforcement, socialization, and safe exercise for growing joints • Anxious or special-needs pets — calm, patient handling for pets who need extra reassurance • Health monitoring — tracking eating, energy, and bathroom habits so you get an accurate picture, not just “they’re fine Pet care is a consistent, reliable part of my week, not something squeezed in around other plans. Monday through Thursday, I’m available after 4:30 PM through 7 AM the next morning — perfect for evening walks, overnight stays, or early morning visits before your day starts. Friday through Sunday, I’m open all day and night, so weekend trips, full-day pet sitting, and last-minute weekend bookings are easy to accommodate. This schedule means your pet gets steady, dependable care on a routine they can count on — whether it’s a weekday evening walk after work or a full weekend of overnight sitting. Overnight & House Sitting I stay in your home so your pet keeps their normal routine, environment, and comfort — no stressful car rides or unfamiliar spaces. I follow their existing feeding, walk, and medication schedule exactly as you’d do it, and I spend real time with them (not just quick check-ins) so they get companionship, not just care. I also keep an eye on the house — bringing in mail/packages, watering plants, and making sure everything’s secure while you’re away. Dog Walking & Drop-In Visits I arrive on schedule and give your pet my full attention for the visit — fresh food and water, a walk or bathroom break, and playtime or affection depending on their energy level. For pets on medication, I handle that at the right time with the right dose. I always do a quick health/behavior check while I’m there, since my vet tech background means I notice things like changes in appetite, energy, or mobility. Every visit, regardless of service • Daily photo and video updates so you can see exactly how things are going • Care that matches their routine, not a one-size-fits-all approach • Attentiveness to health and behavior, not just supervision I don’t currently offer boarding in my own home — all my services take place at your home, so your pet stays in their own familiar space.

About: Growing up will all kinds of pets taught me early on just how much I truly loved animals. I have experience not only from caring for my own pets in the past but also pet sitting for friends and family over the years. I understand how worrisome it is leaving your furry best friends behind when needing to travel and ensure you I will provide nothing but the best care and update you every step of the way. If you are a previous client and see my calendar shows as unavailable please feel free to message me - as sometimes I do block off dates of tentative plans and may in fact be available! I work remote from home M-F. Generally speaking my schedule is extremely flexible. I am home all day other than going to the occasional appointment or gym for about 1-2hrs. Weekends don’t have a schedule however I obviously will be around as needed when scheduled to care for you pets. I tend to think of animals more highly than people. I ensure their safety in any way possible from basic common sense to special requests from owners.
