“Jennifer was great with our kitties! They were all well taken care of, happy, and relaxed when we returned. We especially appreciated the pictures and narrative texts she sent us that kept us from giving into our separation anxiety 🙃. We were just so pleased overall with the entire experience.”
“Sara is AMAZING I had so much peace of mind knowing she was going to check on my cats. She gave me detailed reports and even brought in my amazing packages. She’s the best!!”
“We had a great experience. Dennis and his son were wonderful through out the boarding. We had regular updates which included videos and pictures daily. Our Aslan was well cared for. We will be definitely chose you for our upcoming plans. Thank you”
“Isabella was wonderful, I showed up late from my original drop off time and she was very understanding. I was also provided some towels to clean up a bit of a kitty mess made on the car ride over there which I really appreciated. Absolutely would recommend her to watch your pets if needed. ✨”
“Emily was SUPER attentive and very good at communicating. We got a ton of good photos. Our cats litter was perfectly clean and bowls full when we arrived back home. I think they thoroughly enjoyed her popping in for them! Thanks Emily! 🫶🏼”
“Tanya is extremely professional, has a great memory, very reliable, and is super patient with new animals. She watched our three cats while we were out of town for the week and gave them some company. On first meeting her, she asked great questions regarding personality types and general instructions, and talked us through her soft approach to meeting our animals. She assured us that she’d devote her whole reserved time to sitting with them and letting them get to know her presence. Her notes were thorough and reassuring. We were very happy with her and even our shy cats liked her and allowed her pets. Would highly recommend.”
“Becky is a trustworthy and competent catsitter. We hired her to drop in and take care of our two cats while we were away for a weekend and we came back home to happy and healthy cats. Thank you Becky!”
“Danielle is the very best! This is the 3rd time we've asked her to dogsit Riley, she takes such good care of her! She sends pictures and videos each visit, and Riley absolutely loves her!! ❤️”
About: I’ve taken cared of my neighbors , family , and friends pets. I love animals of any kind. I will gladly take care of them with what you want. Give me instructions and I’ll do it. I’m willing to do evening walks after 5:30pm on weekdays if anyone needs I know it’s not set on my calendar. I also love photography so if you’re wanting me to take a couple of pictures for you, I sure can do that. I need to practice so the photos would be free of charge :) I currently work at Merritt Animal Clinic in Eustis from 8 am to 5pm on weekdays except Thursdays and weekends. I can do walks after 5:30 on weekdays but anytime on Thursdays and weekends if I’m not too busy. I will be happy working with your fur babies 😁 I have a male dog. I cuddle with Toby everyday. My yard is fenced and they are watched 24/7. I will wrestle and play with dogs bigger than me as if I’m a dog. Cats are amazing to lay with as well. I only now have a Chihuahua and he’s very needy so any needy animal won’t be a problem for me at all. I love you snuggle up and play with the pets.
“Rachel was fantastic! She took excellent care of my dog and kept me updated with photos. It's clear that she is an animal lover; she took her time and never rushed. I didn't have to worry about anything while I was away. My dog was happy and well cared for, and I will definitely be using her services again!”
“Rinske watched our 3 cats for a couple days while we were away. She showed up on time each day and sent us pictures of our cats. She was very respectful to our personal space and our kitties. She was also very understanding towards my cats routine and how shy my cats can be. Definitely will be using her in the future if we need someone again!”
About: I have loved animals since I was a young child and currently have a mini zoo at my home! I am great with kitties and senior dog care - I love showing your pets the care and affection they need while you're gone. I currently work from home as a researcher so I am more than happy to get some fresh air with some pet cuddles or to check on your little one! I follow strict instructions from the client and will honour whatever they like for their furry babies. Walks with extra long sniffing time? Say less!
About: I have over 20 years of dog sitting experience and rescued my first dog with my parents at the age of 14 when volunteering at an animal shelter. I then rescued my Duke almost 12 years ago and have been caring for my and other fur babies ever since! I have experience in administering oral medications, senior dog care, physical disabilities and extensive puppy care! You deserve to live your life with the peace of mind that your fur babies are in good hands. Receiving over the top love and care that you expect and they deserve! I currently work from home with a laptop that allows me the freedom and flexibility to provide around the clock care for your pets. I typically bring my 12 year old Weimaraner with me who gets along with all dogs, though this can be adjusted depending on you and your pets comfort level. Allowing someone into your home is a big deal. I vow to earn your trust in caring for your pets and your home while you're away. I send at a minimum of 3 updates a day in the form of photos and videos. This can also be modified to suit your communication styles. Let me know your trash days, and other minimal tasks that need to be performed and trust they'll be taken care of!
“Liz is amazing! She is reliable, punctual, communicative, and meticulous with all pet instructions. All of my animals love having her around. She also cares for my extras (bunnies, chickens, fish, and snake). I will definitely use her anytime I am out of town.”
