House Sitting in Terra Ceia

“McKayla was absolutely amazing while house-sitting and caring for my dog, Mable, and my cat, Kaiah. Mable is still a puppy with a ton of energy, so she can definitely be a handful, but McKayla was incredibly patient, attentive, and wonderful with her. She also took great care of Kaiah and made sure both pets were happy, comfortable, and well cared for while I was away. What really stood out was her communication. She sent so many photos and updates throughout my trip, which gave me complete peace of mind knowing my pets were in great hands. She was always easy to reach, quick to respond, and kept me informed the entire time. Since she stayed in my home, I also appreciated how respectful and responsible she was. Everything was clean, tidy, and exactly as I left it when I returned. Coming home to happy pets and a well-cared-for house made all the difference. I would absolutely book McKayla again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, communicative, and caring pet sitter. She went above and beyond, and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience.”

“Christine house sat for our 2 dachshunds and was wonderful! She kept us updated with photos and messages, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. We really appreciated how clean and well cared for our home was when we returned. She even cleaned the linens, which was very thoughtful and one less thing we had to worry about when we returned. It was also so sweet to hear how much she enjoyed spending time with our pups. We would definitely recommend her and would choose her to dog sit for us again in the future!”

About: I've taken care of cats, dogs, and exotics for many years. Well versed in pet care for any breed and kind of animal. Big fan and friend of all pets alike. I am currently an online college student, so I have plenty of time to play and care for your furry family members, with extra love! I have a very friendly but shy chihuahua who would be separated from your furry friend in my home. I can uphold any rules you may follow in your own home for your pets as need be.

“We love Mihaela, she was very loving and patient with both our senior dogs. Our border collie is deaf and needs lots of patience and reassurance. She was awesome with him, they were taking selfies by day 2. We have already booked her for an extended sit.”

About: I am a teacher and over the summer am home and open the a free schedule all day. I also love dogs and love to get exercise in like taking a long walk. I am a teacher who is on summer break and will be home to care for dogs of all sizes. I have 1 dog who is friendly and loves to play. He loves his Daily walks. Pets are welcome to roam in a huge fenced in backyard with plenty of shade. They are open to roam free in the house and snuggle up on the coach when in the home.

“Michael and Shanna took care of Renny while I was gone all week. I really appreciated the updates and peace of mind while I was traveling. They remembered to leave lights on for him before I got home too.”

About: My name is Rachel and I am a college graduate of RU. I earned a Bachelor's degree in Marketing with a minor in Business Analytics. I am currently in the process of studying for my Florida Teaching Certification. I am a Pre-K teacher at the moment. My love for teaching young children and education is something I pride myself on. With that being said, the school year wraps up May 21st, so I am looking for summer work while I have time off from school! For the entirety of my life, I have been around dogs. My family has had two miniature pinschers and a Jack Russel. I have dog sat for families with Golden Doodles, Australian Shepards, Golden Retrievers, Daschaunds - the list goes on! I am open to staying the night to watch dogs while their owners are away, coming to walk dogs during the day or even just keeping them company when need be. I would love to learn more about how I can provide help with watching your dogs in the future. I am currently off for the summer! I will possibly be getting a part time job in addition to dog sitting, but my schedule is super open and flexible! I treat your dogs just like mine - with lots of love and respect! I always make sure to keep the dog’s schedule on track in terms of eating, using the potty, playtime, etc.

“We are very pleased with Karen and her pup sitting at our home, for our two Yorkie pups, Daisy and Snickers, she did an amazing job, and also went out of her way to water my wife’s plants, get our mail, take in our garbage pails from the street, and provide us with many photos and updates, we came home to two very happy and well taken care of pups most of all, we would definitely have Karen pup sit in our home again and recommend her to anyone, Thank You!”

About: I grew up with a variety of pets. As a kid we had cows, horses, ducks, chickens, cats and dogs, as well as many more. I am in school working on my prerequisites for a Veterinary Sciences degree, so you can be sure that your best friend will be in the best care available!😁 I work full time from around 9am-5pm and can work outside of those hours, I wake up around 5am every day so I can be with your pet early and late. I am available for overnight appointments as well. Generally for pet sitting, before I go to work I’ll feed your animals, take them on a walk and prepare for when I’m gone, when I get off work around 2-3pm, I’ll come back and take them out for a run or play with them, and stay with them for a while for some cuddles or just for company. For drop ins I can do 3 per day, one at around 5am, one at 3pm, and one at 9pm. For walks my schedules the same. I have a blue Doberman and Shepard/Cane Corso mix so I can be comfortable around every breed no problem. I love hanging out with animals and having some playtime or going on runs with them. If they aren’t that social I can still let them outside and just be there as company for them while I do my schoolwork.

“The best decision we could have made! I had never left my baby with anyone before, and I did it with Mauricio. He's incredibly good, and communication is excellent. I recommend him 200%. THANK YOU!! I'm sure we'll be back.”

About: I’ve always had animals around at home, through fostering, and from volunteering at our local shelter, so pet care is just part of my life. I’ve handled everything from goofy, high‑energy pups to shy cats who need a slow, gentle approach. My fiancée worked at the same shelter for years, so I picked up a ton of hands‑on tips from her too. I’ve cared for all kinds of pets like my fiancée’s sister’s Frenchie and Lab, lots of cats with big personalities, and plenty of shelter dogs who just needed a confidence boost. I’m comfortable with shy pets, excited pets, nervous pets, and the ones who need a little extra patience. I’ve also given medication, done enrichment, and helped pets settle in when they’re unsure. Whether your pet wants couch cuddles, a walk, or even a silly dog birthday party (yes, we’ve actually done one), I’m here to make them feel safe, happy, and loved. I treat every pet like family. I work from home, so it’s easy for me to fit pet care into my day. I keep a steady routine with time set aside for feeding, walks, playtime, and check‑ins. Even on busy days, I make sure every pet gets attention and consistency. When I’m house sitting, the only thing I need to work from home is a spot where I can plug into a hardwired internet connection. I bring my own portable desk, cords, and equipment, so I don’t need anything else from you. It never gets in the way of pet care. I’m still around all day for cuddles, walks, and company. I keep things calm and pet friendly with cozy spots, enrichment, and plenty of supervision. I’ve worked with all kinds of personalities like shy, energetic, nervous, or pets who need medication, and I always go at their pace. In your home, I follow your routine closely so your pet feels secure. In mine, I keep the environment relaxed and predictable so they can settle in easily. My goal is always the same. A stress‑free, loving experience where your pet feels safe.

About: I’ve taken care of my dog of 6 years since we got him as a puppy. I trained him to potty, do tricks, and play. I walk him 2-3 times a day and take him to the dog park, dog beach, and other dog social settings. I’ve also taken care of other dogs for multiple days. I work part-time during the weekends so my availability is during the weekdays! I am also a full time college student studying Biomedical Sciences but I’m fully online during the summer. I’m very playful with pets but I always make sure to put their safety first. I also always follow special instructions for each unique pet!

About: I’m a hockey player at day and a pet lover 21/7. I am a very disciplined worker person who is a meticulous planner. I love pets and I will go above and beyond to make sure your pet is treated like a princess/ king. I am available during week days anytime after 3 some days earlier depending on my schedule. Open only some weekends. I am available for boarding but very rarely. I have trained my dog to be able to walk off leash during walks and will always make sure their little paws are clean by the end. Your pet will always have fun with me.

“Very quick to respond and sent updates with the pups daily. It was such a relief to have someone so kind and caring with our pups when we are out of town!. Shes the best!”

“Very professional, we will definitely utilize Hailey’s services again.”

About: I’ve lived with animals all my life, my family has had dogs, cats and birds. I’ve lived in a farm for a few years, and learning about animals and their behavior has always been a hobby of mine. I’m currently attending USF full time for my bachelors degree in Psychology. I’m a homebody, and am free for drop ins and walks in the mornings from 8:00am to 12:00pm and after 3:00pm to 7:00pm all days of the week. I let my cat out my front porch almost daily, since she seems to enjoy just listening to nature and having a good time hunting bugs and other small critters. I stay in the living room until she’s ready to come since she doesn’t really like to have other people out there with her. I’ll follow your house rules strictly, and make sure you fur baby stays safe.

About: I’ve been dog sitting and house sitting since 2021 and have cared for dogs of all ages, personalities, and energy levels. I have experience with puppies under one year old, senior dogs, and dogs with specific routines and care requirements. I’m comfortable administering oral medications, following detailed feeding schedules, and maintaining the routines that help your pet feel comfortable while you’re away. Whether your dog loves long walks, dog park adventures, or simply relaxing at home, I adjust my care to fit their needs. One of my top priorities is communication. I provide regular updates, photos, and messages so you’ll always know how your pet is doing and what they’ve been up to. My goal is to make sure both you and your dog feel happy, comfortable, and stress-free during every stay. Pet care fits naturally into my routine, allowing me to give dogs plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship throughout the day. Whether your pup enjoys long walks, trips to the dog park, or relaxing at home, I love keeping them active, engaged, and comfortable while you’re away. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities. I take the time to learn each dog’s individual needs and follow owner instructions carefully, whether that means maintaining a specific feeding schedule, walking route, administering oral medications, or accommodating special routines. I understand how important consistency can be for pets, so I strive to make their experience as comfortable and stress-free as possible. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for while you’re away.
