Dog Sitting Tamarac

About: I work at a veterinary clinic as a receptionist and I have volunteered at the humane society and the K-9 unit. I am very passionate about cats and dogs and is working on my certification as a veterinary technician! I know the basics on taking care of animals especially since I have a cat of my own! I also know how to administer medications if needed! I currently work full time at a vet clinic but I am still flexible enough to do drop-ins to feed and walk your pet! I will always treat your pet like how I treat mine. Give them some love and attention as well as walking and feeding them! With cats, I will clean their litter while they eat. If your pet has medications I can assure you I will be able to administer it to them just like how I do it to my cat!

About: I understand how difficult it can be to trust someone with your pets. This is why I focus on building trust with both you and your pets through patience, reliability, and consistent care! I am currently in nursing school and just a few months away from achieving that goal! Sundays and Mondays are my days of open availability and the rest of the week I work from 8 AM - 4:30 PM. Tuesday through Friday I could commit to anything before 8 AM or after 4:30 PM, and Saturdays would be the same with an added availability from 12 - 2 PM. I prioritize keeping pets comfortable in their own environments and follow regimens clearly. This includes maintaining their regular feeding schedules, keeping areas clean, providing fresh water, going on long or short walks, administering medications if needed, and offering playtime and companionship.

About: I’ve worked in caregiving roles that required patience, attentiveness, and understanding different behaviors and personalities, which naturally carries over into pet care. I’m calm, reliable, and detail-oriented, and I genuinely enjoy making pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I pay close attention to routines, feeding instructions, energy levels, and body language to make sure each pet gets care tailored to them. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, affectionate, or needs extra patience, I focus on creating a stress-free and loving environment while keeping owners updated for peace of mind. I currently work a 9–5 job, so I’m available for pet care in the evenings after 5 PM on weekdays. I’m reliable with evening walks, feeding, playtime, and check-ins, and I make sure pets still get consistent attention and care after their daytime routine. I’m also available on weekends with flexible scheduling, which allows me to provide more extended care when needed, including multiple visits or longer stays. I prioritize following each pet’s routine closely and keeping owners updated for peace of mind. I live in an apartment complex it’s not allowed for pets to stay the night but walks are allowed the area is very safe and pet friendly

About: I’ve cared for dogs, cats, and other pets for about 3 years. Also, I have a dog and cat of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you trust. I’m nurturing, attentive to each pet’s routine and needs, and committed to making your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. As a part-time worker, I have plenty of time to integrate visits or house sitting into my day. I’m attentive and flexible, making sure each pet gets the time, care, and attention they need, whether it’s a quick check-in, play session, or overnight stay. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their routine and instructions closely to ensure consistency and comfort. I provide feeding, playtime, walks, litter box maintenance, and any medications needed. I give pets calm, attentive companionship, keep the space clean, and provide regular updates so owners feel confident their pets are safe, happy, and well-cared for.

“Finding Bianca was truly one of the best things that happened to us. Having her take care of our babies gave us so much peace and ease. She handled absolutely everything we needed, even the unexpected, with so much care. We are so incredibly grateful for Bianca and want her to be the first person we go to for all our future trips. Thank you again, Bianca. 💛”

“Lori has watched my cats several times now and she does an awesome job. My cats love when she comes to visit them. I know when I leave them for her to visit they will be taken care of with care.”

About: The queen of last minute bookings… and I don’t charge you extra for it. Being surrounded by animals after a hard day at work as an EMT is very therapeutic to me. Your pet won’t just be another animal I take care of or walk, your pet will become my friend, and honestly pet friends tend to be a lot more trustworthy than human friends these days. I own 4 dogs, 2 German shepherds, a mini Aussie and a Boxer. Age ranging from 2 yrs old to 13 yrs old. One of them was rescued as a senior the other 2 I’ve had since they were 8 weeks old. I also grew up with hound dogs in the country. I also have experience with horses and other livestock. I have a wide range of experience from different breeds young to senior animals. Super hyper dogs do well with me and I have great experience with them being as I have very hyper dogs as well. Don't let my rates scare you, I work with everyone's budget. I primarily work night shift as an EMT giving me a lot of time during the mornings and afternoons to create this small business. This will fit perfectly into my schedule I will care for your pets with instructions from my clients on how they want their pets taken care of. I will never ever mistreat any animal I ever come across.

“Amber is very attentive to Beau. She prepares his food with attention. Great dog sitter”

About: I have owned and taken care of pets since a young age. Even through college, I cared for a hamster and a hedgehog! Ive always had dogs, cats, and small animals in my life! I have been around all sorts of breeds of dog, large dogs, small dogs, and everything in between. I understand and respect the temperament of different breeds and do not expect all dogs to have the same personality! I have also had cats most of my adult life and have helped take care of family pets throughout my years when in need. I currently work from home - So pet care is all day, especially when they want to cuddle near my work space! Pets get plenty of daily attention and love! We live next to a pet friendly park where I currently walk my own dogs and will get plenty of walking time. I also have a bedroom that can be used as a "safe haven" if needed where they can be fed and sleep if they're not comfortable out in the open space of the home. Your pet will be treated like family and I will ensure your pet is as comfortable as possible!

“Ariella was such a sweetheart and did very well with my two cats. I have one who is notoriously difficult and ran away from the last petsitter (not a Rover sitter), but she was able to get him to eat and he didn’t hide the entire time. I highly recommend her to anyone in need of someone to care for their pets while they’re away. They’ll be in good hands with Ariella!”

“Connie did a great job with my dog, including giving him eye drops during each visit (which he hates). Always on time and a great communicator. I would definitely use her again”

“Kianna was great. She interacted very well with our cat and took great care of her. We also appreciated the instant and super friendly communication with Kianna. We highly recommend Kianna.”

About: I have grown up surrounded by dogs from a chihuahua to an Australian shepherd, I was able to walk them multiple times, schedule feedings accordingly, and always schedule in playtime. I enjoy spending time with animals and like to make sure they are happy and keeping their tails wagging! I also have dog sat my neighbors dogs numerous times, making me trustworthy in handling multiple dogs at once. Overall, I will provide great care with up to date communication to give your pets a happy and welcoming stay! Pet care easily fits into my week as I am currently off of school for the summer and my part time job is very flexible, allowing me to pick up any sittings needed no matter when. I own one cat who is very friendly and can keep your pets some company and I also have a large backyard area (not fenced but will keep pets on leash) for your pets to run around. Just a short walk is a dog park that is not too crowded and can also give your pets some playtime. I also make sure to keep a schedule on all walks and sneak in some cuddle time with lots of petting!

About: What sets me apart is the genuine love and empathy I bring to every walk. I had my own dog for five years, and losing him early due to complications deeply shaped how I care for dogs. Walking dogs now is my way of honoring him—by giving each dog patience, joy, and the attention they deserve, ensuring they feel happy, safe, and truly loved. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I’m currently a UF student taking online classes, which gives me a very flexible schedule. I’m available throughout the day for walks, drop-ins, and check-ins. While I occasionally have meetings or dance practices in the evenings, I plan ahead and communicate clearly, making sure every pet still gets consistent, reliable care and attention. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I bring the love and experience I gained from having my own dog for five years. Losing him early due to complications taught me how important it is to give dogs attention, care, and consistency every day. I follow each pet’s routine closely—feeding schedules, walks, and any special instructions—while making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages so they know their pets are in good hands.

“Carla was great. She was very responsive and sent me all the details, pictures and communicated well. I would definitely recommend and will be hiring her again.”

“Omer & Diana were great! This was our first time using Rover and they reassured us, addressed any questions that we had, and communicated frequently. Our dog was stressed with us being away and they made sure to spend quality time with him and made sure that he was eating and drinking enough. I felt very comfortable with them being in our home and taking care of our dog. Would definitely use again!”

“Marilyn does it again! She was amazing with our three cats and attentive to their needs. We had a change with one of our cats and Marilyn understood how to take care of him right from the beginning. We love having Marilyn take care of our babies, she treats them like they are her own!”
