Cat caregivers near you - Cocoa
“We went away on a long 4 week trip and Jennifer took care of our 2 cats (1 indoor,1 outdoors). She did a wonderful job looking after them both and when the outdoor cat stopped showing up she went above & beyond and set up her own camera to assure Silky (outdoor cat) was okay and eating. Turns out a possum was stealing her food. I’d rehire Jennifer anytime and absolutely recommend her for anyone needing quality care for their pets”
“My kitties love Melissa! She takes great care of them and goes the extra mile giving them treats and their special medicine. She has been so kind to water the plants, take in the mail, and tidy the house while we’re gone as well. She rocks!”
“Carla was exceptional with my 2 cats for drop in visits. She is very thorough and communicative. One of my cats takes oral medication and she was able to successfully administer it every day! The cats looked very happy and content in every photo update she provided.”
About: When I was 8 years old, my mom had me start cat sitting to ensure I was capable of caring for my own. Once I proved myself, I was given my best friend, Roxy. I’ve always been drawn to cats and their vast range of personalities. I’ve worked with spunky cats, shy cats, lazy cats, and so much more. It is truly my mission to make every cat my friend! With me, you can feel safe to leave your baby while you’re out and come back without any worry!
“Priya provided excellent care for my cat while I was out of town. Her attention to detail, thorough care, great communication, and flexibility made such a difference while being away. Prior to booking, she took the time to fully understand my cat’s needs, typical behaviors, and preferences. She provided consistent updates on my cat’s behaviors and feeding schedule and followed everything to plan, with photos. Arriving home, my cat showed no signs of anxiety and everything in my home was taken care of. I highly recommend her and look forward to utilizing her again, knowing my cat’s care is in great hands!”
About: I've owned cats since I was a child, but I first started working with them in a more professional setting when I started volunteering at the Hornell Humane Society. Since 2023 I've rescued 6 cats, and have successfully found loving homes for all of them. It all started with a young grey tabby cat named Katherine, who currently lives with my mothers partner. Last summer I rescued a litter of 5 kittens, 3 boys and 2 girls. I hand raised them from 4 weeks until I found them good homes. I currently own 2 cats, 2 girls named Juniper and Olive Oil! Both were adopted from the Hornell Humane Society in late 2024.

About: I’ve been caring for animals from cats to dogs to fish and turtles since I was young. I love animals and can’t wait to ease your travel or emergency worries while you are away. I work from home and will follow your schedule to the best of my ability, so your pet will be looked after during the day! I work from home so I am available all day everyday typically. It’s so fun to learn each pets quirks and personalities. Pet care helps me get out and get my steps in. House (Day) Sitting: Since I have a fur baby and family of my own, I generally provide early morning-late evening services following your schedule. Of course, if your pet needs special attention, this can be accommodated for overnight care. Please disclose all indoor cameras. Boarding: For their safety and little piece of home, please bring your baby’s kennel/cage/carrier and something that smells like you along with food and water bowls.
“Pepper loves spending time with Mia! She responds quick and my dog is always extremely excited when she sees we are at their home. We love using Mia for daycare and would 100% recommend booking!”

About: Hi! We’re a husband-and-wife team who have been caring for pets for most of our lives. Between the two of us, we’ve had hands-on experience with dogs in every stage of life—from energetic puppies learning the ropes to seniors who need a slower pace and a little extra care. We truly enjoy hosting pets and making them feel safe, comfortable, and at home while their families are away. We pay close attention to routines, personalities, and comfort levels so each pet gets the care that fits them, not a one-size-fits-all approach. Our home includes a fully fenced backyard with artificial turf, which means plenty of space for running, playing, and fresh air—without the mud and mess. Whether your pet loves active playtime or prefers lounging and quiet companionship, we’re happy to match their energy. We treat every pet like part of the family and understand how important trust and peace of mind are when you’re away. We’d love to care for your pet as if they were our own. Our schedules give us a lot of flexibility when it comes to pet care. One of us works days and the other works nights, which means there is often someone home or available to check in throughout the day. This allows us to accommodate a variety of needs, including frequent potty breaks, playtime, feedings, and medications. We’re happy to work with your pet’s routine and adjust as needed to help them feel comfortable and well cared for while you’re away. We promise to follow your safety preferences, using a leash when needed, securing doors and taking extra precaution at all times. Your pets safety will always be a top priority for us

About: I am a retired CVT with over 25 years of experience in small animals, emergency medicine, and teaching future veterinary technician students. I retired 5 years ago and began traveling. Both myself and my husband have been pet sitting full time all over the country. We are home in Florida for an extended amount of time and wanted to expand our services locally. I am comfortable giving medications. It is important to us to maintain a consistent stress-free experience for both the pet owner as well as your family member. I am retired so my schedule is open. I do provide pet sitting via another site so I tend to book up quickly from there. I prefer when pet sitting in clients homes that they provide me with their expectations. For cats I do prefer inside cats only because I don’t want to be responsible if your indoor/outdoor cat doesn’t come home.
“Shelly has a great set up at her home for dogs to freely play including a large screened patio and fenced backyard. Shelly is very accommodating and pleasant. Our dog had an enjoyable stay at doggie daycare over the weekend.”
About: I'm the family member everyone calls when they need a dogsitter. I've been around dogs my whole life & wouldn't have it any other way. I am currently unemployed and have an open schedule. I'm a mother of 2 kids so looking to make extra cash and still have an open schedule for my kids. My house has a fenced in yard and a HUGE screen patio. I can easily crate your dog when needed. I have plenty of play toys and space.
“We came to the area on vacation and needed a sitter for one of the days. When we arrived, we realized our pup wasn’t excited about hiking and Christine was able to take him for two days last minute. Christine, her husband and and their pup are awesome and I’d absolutely recommend booking with them!! Manny was so excited to be back for a second day and slept the rest of the evening when we picked him up ? We will definitely book them again if they’re available next time we’re in town.”

About: I’ve been pet sitting for 3 years now. I’ve done a wide variety of jobs. I have worked on a long term schedule, stayed overnight, and handled last minute care situations. Every single time I have met both the fur baby and owner with care, compassion, and trust. I have always loved caring for pets and love to tune in with each of their personalities! From hyperactive pups to our elderly babies who just want to watch tv together. It’s amazing to bring out the personality in each one and give them the opportunity to be in charge! If they want to walk, we walk, if they want to play, we play, if they want to chill all day, we chill! I can ensure that while you’re out, your pet will be taken care of and loved so you can remain stress free. I’m currently working part time so I’ll have plenty of time to work with you and your pet. I love getting out of the house and would love to spend the day with your fur buddy! I currently have one large dog and one cat in my home. I plan to only work within the clients home. I believe it’s best to keep pets in their safe space so they can remain stress free while you remain stress free as well. I’m accustomed to house sitting, house care, and staying overnight if needed. I can assure you that I will abide by the campsite rule and always leave things better than how I found them!

About: I had a reactive dog for the last 18 years. I understand the quirks and behaviors of dogs very well. I will always listen to the owner's advice and not assume that I know best.

I was a helicopter mom with my dog. I took him to the vet pretty quickly. I will notice any change in your dog and notify you right away.
“I’m so grateful for Ja’Ravia’s help these past two weeks. She’s reliable, attentive, and clearly cares about the pets she works with.

“Monica is so friendly and has been great with our two pups! We have a large German Shepherd that can be a bit reactive in sporadic instances and a mini Goldendoodle who likes to be the leader of the pack. She knows how to handle and interact with both of them, is always very sweet and kind to them and understands their individual temperaments well. Monica is also great with communication and keeps us up to date on our pups over the course of her time with them as well as if there’s any schedule shifts that might need to happen. It’s nothing but happy tails when Monica comes by!”

I’m available Monday through Friday after 4:30 p.m., with early morning walks also possible, and all day and overnight on weekends. My husband and I coordinate our work schedules so your pet can receive more frequent attention and companionship. For boarding, pets are typically alone for no more than 4–6 hours at a time. We’ll confirm our schedules before booking to ensure we can meet your pet’s needs. I’m easy to reach and happy to follow your pet’s routine and specific care instructions. I look forward to meeting you and your pet! I work full time, but I make time before and after work for attentive care, playtime, and companionship. I’m flexible with pet sitting in your home and happy to discuss a schedule that fits your pet’s routine. For boarding, my husband and I coordinate our schedules so pets are typically alone for no more than 4–6 hours at a time. I’ll confirm availability and time away before each booking to make sure we’re a good fit for your pet’s needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my priorities. When caring for pets in your home, I’ll follow your care instructions and make sure doors are securely locked after arriving and leaving. During walks, I’ll keep your pet leashed and maintain a safe distance from unfamiliar animals. I’ll also pay close attention to your pet’s behavior and surroundings to help them feel safe and comfortable while you’re away.
“Lindsey was amazing treated my 3 dogs like her own. They had such a good time and were exhausted when they got home. Lindsey sent daily pics and videos so we could see them playing and having great time. Would highly recommend.”
About: I fortunately have 6+ years experience working in the veterinary field and I’ve also been pet sitting for 10 years, for close friends, family, neighbors, and colleagues of mine. I can take care of special needs pets, giving oral or injectable medications and changing diapers or applying creams. I got you covered! I’m currently part-time at my job so I have ample time for play dates, walks, sleep overs, whatever your pet care needs may be! I have a large fenced in yard, treats for both dogs and cats, toys for both dogs and cats, and a medium size crate if needed I can provide for those of our furry friends who are crate trained.
“Lauren was a fantastic dogsitter for Maggie (50-60 Lb German shepherd mix). She has 2 dogs about Maggie’s size that were very friendly and played well with her. She was very accommodating to pickup and drop off times, and made sure to respond to messages quickly. She provided photos and videos throughout the 7 day stay to calm our nerves about our dog, and made sure that our dog felt very at home the whole time. I will absolutely use Lauren for any future dog sitting!”
“Ms. Christine took such great care of Blue while I was away. Christine was adapted to my travel schedule with her availability as well as sent pictures and videos of Blue enjoying himself during his stay. Will definitely book again”
“Melissa is so good with our boy, Otis! She is friendly and responds quickly. She sends lots of photos and updates during a long stay, which is much appreciated. We will be using her services in the future!”
“Lori is professional, courteous and extremely responsive. I received pictures daily of activities and on goings with my dog. I have never boarded my 15 year old senior maltipoo before and Lori's care put me at ease while I was away. I love the service she offers of picking up and dropping off which allowed my to deal with the chaos I had to prior to helping a family member move to another state! I highly recommend her and already have her booked again real soon!”
