“This was our first time using James’s for our fur babies and both Winston and Bella just fell into a routine and made themselves right at home! He did a great job entertaining both of our dogs at the same time and loving them equally. They have different foods, and he was able to take care of each of them as they needed to be taken care of. Also, he mentioned that he would keep in touch and send pictures. He absolutely did a great job letting us know how our babies were doing even within a couple hours of dropping them off, and letting us see that they were getting the love and attention they needed. I highly recommend him, and we will use him again in the future!”

He is attentive, extremely patient and will consistently keep you updated about your pet’s wellbeing. I would suggest Christian to look after your pet.”

“Cherisse was a home away from home for my three dogs. They loved her and her pups! She was extremely attentive and responded to all of my questions almost immediately. She also sent high quality pictures and videos every day so I could see their beaming smiles?. I could not have asked for a better sitter and will most definitely rebook!”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Ruth was wonderful with our three cats! She took the time to learn their routines and made sure each of them was comfortable and cared for during her visit. She was very communicative, sending thoughtful updates and photos that gave us so much peace of mind. It’s clear she truly cares, and we came home to happy, relaxed cats. We’ll definitely be booking Ruth again.”
“Thank you Jennifer for agreeing to take care of my cats on short notice. You were so kind to them and seemed to genuinely love them; even my two ferals and the cat who lives across the street who comes over for snacks. You truly love our furry babes.”
About: I am experienced, responsible, friendly and loved by pets of all ages. Get reliable pet sitting from someone who’s raised a Westie and wrangled puppies. I live and work locally in Lakeland.

“My boys were well taken care of and I got some cute photos on my trip for peace of mind. Her response time was excellent and I didn’t have a second of worry about my boys. I was able to enjoy my vacation with the knowledge my kitties were shown love and care the whole time. Will definitely book again.”

“Yan is an AMAZING cat sitter! She kept in daily communication in a professional and upbeat way; it's such a relief to find a sitter who sends a detailed report with plenty of adorable photos. She very smoothly handled some hiccups when my lively kitties got into some mischief. She seemed to care for them in a way that really put me at ease. Would definitely book again!”
“I cannot recommend Ashlei highly enough! She did drop-in visits for my two cats over a long weekend, and she provided amazing care. Both of my cats have medical needs (one needs eye drops and the other needed pills mixed into her food) and Ashlei handled their regimens perfectly, including navigating our sneaky, picky eaters! Her daily reports were detailed and reassuring, and I looked forward to reading them knowing that my kitties were in her capable hands. Ashlei is professional, highly attentive to instructions, and clearly loves cats! She gave us the priceless gift of total peace of mind while we were away, and we will absolutely be booking with her again!”

“Pennie was very professional at our meet & greet. Sent pictures of both my cats with updates. She also did additional things for me—getting mail & watering tomato plant.”
About: What sets me apart is my lifelong experience caring for animals and the genuine love and patience I bring to every pet. I’ve been around both dogs and cats my entire life and have experience caring for them for family and friends. I currently have a puppy that I’ve raised since she was just 8 weeks old, so I understand the time, consistency, and attention young dogs need. From potty training routines and reinforcing basic commands to providing plenty of exercise, playtime, and affection, I’m comfortable caring for puppies as well as adult pets. I treat every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away.
“Sunni is an angel and I am extremely grateful for all her help! The fact that my shy cat came out during her visits tells me a lot about how kind of a person she is! I would not hesitate to request her again and I absolutely recommend her for anyone wanting first-class care for their fur babies! Thank you Sunni!”
About: I am able to fully tend to your cat and understand what they need based off behavior and body language. I am here to keep your cat comfortable, and on schedule whether it is a tiny sick baby, or old cat who needs diapers and a bath.
About: what sets me apart is my genuine love and respect for animals. I understand that every cat has a unique personality- some love attention while others prefer their space- and I’m committed to caring for them in a way that makes them feel safe and comfortable. I always respect their boundaries, follow their routine, and make sure they receive plenty of care, patients and affection on their terms. As someone who hopes to become a veterinarian, I am passionate about animal health and well-being. I treat every cat and animal as if it were my own. My goal is to give you peace of mind, knowing your furry family member isn’t a caring, trustworthy hand while your way!
“Bridget was FANTASTIC! She came over the day before we left to meet us and our cats. Every day we received an update and lots of pictures. We came home to happy and well cared for kitties. We will definitely use Bridget again!”
“Micah was amazing! She came and met my cat and was so good with him (he was a little shy). Her rover reports were excellent and very comforting. She added 16 photos over 2 visits. I love seeing photos of my cat especially since he looked very calm and content. She came around 6 pm both days like I requested and only had a 5 day notice that she would be watching him. I really hope she can watch my cat next time.”

“Megan is heaven sent! My dog needed day care where he was getting the same love as if he was home and Megan provided that plus more! Our work hours are from 8-7pm between us both and we felt Neeko needed to get out the house to not be cooped up all week. I’m so happy that I chose Megan for this and the fact she provides updates and pics throughout the day is amazing and warms my heart! She treats our dog like it’s his second home! Book her!”

About: I’ve taken care of friends and families dogs my whole life, I am a pet lover and very gentle with animals. I have a large Great Dane at home so I am also familiar with large dogs. I am currently a college student-athlete living in Lakeland, not as busy as you think! I take mostly online classes and have a perfect schedule for check-ins, and walks! I’m always looking to help take care of animals because I have a passion and love for them, especially pups🐾💛 I am just looking for check ins and dog walking, I live in an apartment so I most likely won’t be bringing a dog back home.
“Being our first time little our little pups for the first time, we were quite nervous and worried about leaving them for the day in a new environment. We were very quickly put as easy with Karla's amazing, calm and caring nature and obvious genuine love of animals. Our dogs took to her straight away and not only were ok for the day, but had an associate blast with Karla and her little Coco. She sent us updates, photos and videos that made us feel beyond at ease, but so happy that our little ones were having a great time! ☺️ We are delighted to have Karla as an amazing person to look after our pooches at times we need to be away in the future as we know they will have the best care and it actually be an enjoyable, fun adventure for them! Cannot recommend and thank Karla enough for her brilliant care and genuine love and gift she has for animals ☺️?”
About: I have had a big passion for animals since childhood. I grew up with many animals and always dreamed of working with animals. I graduated from university with an associate in veterinary technician. I been working for several years in veterinary medicine and doggy daycare i really have fun and enjoy all my time with them. I’m currently working 3 days per week, usually I’m off on Sunday and the rest of the time at home. My schedule rotates, I do not always have the same days off. I have an empty room only for them, small cage if needed and a porch that they can be around. I’m a pet friendly and I always walk my dog around so he can enjoy the complex.
About: I have two cats and a dog of my own that I have been taking care of since they were babies. I have cat sit and dog sit since I was 10. Although I am in college I have tons of free time almost every day of the week except for Tuesdays! I almost have my own transportation and have tons of free time! I walk, feed and play with my dog! My dog and I have morning and nightly walks! I also clean my cats litter boxes as well as play with them!
“Ms. Vely rocks! This was Coco's first full Day with Ms. Vely, so when she took command right away I was glad for that since she was a fresh face for my Coco to get used to over a long period of time. She is so wonderful and kind with doggies, I had no doubt she'd get my boy out of his shell. She updated us with photos and short videos throughout her time with Coco to show our little man was doing just awesome..... And the tongue hanging out the side of his mouth with a big toothy grin showed that she sure did get him out of his shell! Coco was even a gentleman doggie and made sure to follow her inside after every jaunt outside! Glad to have found Ms. Vely and glad to have her watch him again! You cannot go wrong with Ms. Vely!”
About: I have been caring for dogs and cats for neighbors, family members, and friends since I was 10 years old. Through this experience, I have developed strong animal care skills and a genuine passion for working with pets. I am comfortable around animals of all temperaments and enjoy building positive relationships with them. I have a flexible schedule and can provide consistent, dependable care for your pets throughout the week, giving them the attention and affection they need while you’re away. I have a secure, fenced-in yard and do not currently have any pets of my own, allowing me to provide focused attention to your pet. I am also happy to crate your dog if that is your preference.
About: Firstly, I will listen to your pet's needs that you have, and follow them accordingly. Secondly, I will play with your babies and pay attention to them, with love and affection. I will walk with them around the Lake's, and engage them, by talking to them, so that they know they are loved by me. Thirdly, I do like to play catch and engage them in different games, so their time away from you will fly by for them. Lastly, I am not trained in the Heimlich for dogs, nor CPR, but I have had to do the Heimlich on my own dog, whom was choking on food, to save her life. I look forward to playing with your babies. Thank you so very much.
“I chose Lia as my sitter the fist time I used Rover and will always choose her. She was fantastic. She took my last minute booking request and Sharon loved her. She was very loving and very communicative, she sent me many photos and videos!. I would choose Lia's services for sure. I felt 100% comfortable leaving Sharon in her care!”
About: Hi there! As an experienced caregiver and the owner of two dogs, Willie and Lily, I understand how deeply important your pets are to your family. My home is a safe, attentive environment tailored to meet the unique personalities and routines of different animals. Whether your pet needs high-energy playtime, structured walks, or just a quiet place to relax, I am fully prepared to provide a secure and reliable home-away-from-home experience Pet care is seamlessly integrated into my daily and weekly routine because my own two dogs, Willie and Lily, keep me on a structured, active schedule every single day. I have a fenced yard and 2 friendly dogs to keep your dog company. I will keep an eye on your dog(s) the entire time.
About: I have fostered for the SPCA since I was 12 and have owned pets my entire life. I have a passionate love for animals and recently discovered a new passion for pet sitting! I STRICTLY KEEP ONLY ONE PET FAMILY AT A TIME - so I can focus on their personal and familiar schedule, happiness, and safety. I ALSO WELCOME SPECIAL NEEDS PETS, as I have owned and cared for many myself. Keeping your pet is a privilege and brings me great joy, it is not a primary financial stream. (If you need a recurring or long-term sitter who will build a loving relationship with your pet, please contact me for discount.) As for my background and experience, as a youth, I began fostering animals for the SPCA at 12 years old, and then at 16 began raising and training guide dog puppies for Southeastern Guide Dogs. I have been awarded volunteer and foster of the year both by the SPCA. As I got older. I saw a great need for foster parents who could bottle feed abandoned puppies and kittens, could care for older pets needing extra time and expertise, and pets with a wide variety of special needs. After adopting several special needs pets who would otherwise have difficulty finding a forever home (the last two passed away last year), I found myself wanting to adopt every animal I fostered. knowing that wasn’t realistic, I realized pet sitting might be better outlet for me to direct my love for animals (Without the pain of not knowing if the pet I fostered would eventually find a loving home). And I have loved hosting happy pets ever since! My children are now in college, and after losing my precious older dog and cat a couple years ago, I now only have one cat we rescued during a storm. My ultimate goal is for both you and your pet to be comfortable and have peace of mind before and during the time you are away, and I strive to love and entertain them so much that they feel at home (or on vacation) until you come back for them. I work from home, allowing me to be available for your pet at almost all times - which is especially helpful with puppies/kittens, older, or disabled pets that need to be closely watched. (I have many years experience with disabled, sick or elderly pets). I am experienced with giving both oral and injected meds, expressions, helping them eat, exercise, etc. Because I only pet sit one animal family at a time, I am able to adjust to your pet(s) schedule. Whatever makes him/her most comfortable! I take the trust and safety of pets very seriously, only keeping one pet (or family of pets) at a time. I also document a daily diary of their experiences, and send pictures on a daily basis (unless requested otherwise). You can review the daily diary document (as well as information I prefer to obtain before pet sitting), in my photos section. This document includes the preferred vet and emergency center I utilize, although I am happy to contact your preferred vet if provided to me. I also have multiple friends who are veterinarians, and I never hesitate to contact them if I am at all concerned about any pet in my care. I prefer dogs be crate trained if they are young and active, but while I have a large double-sized crate, it is only used if we are all gone for a short time (for the dog’s safety and comfort). The rest of the time pets are welcome on the bed to sleep with us, on furniture, etc. If there is a reason the dog can’t be crated, please discuss it with me and we can come up with safest and best plan for your pet! I also have a room set up for pets in case they want to be alone or have quiet time. It is also helpful if you bring a blanket from home, so s/he is comforted by the familiar smells of you and their loving home!
“Christian is amazing!! Our dog is a bit nervous and Christian calmed him down. He is a dog lover and you can tell he genuinely care about the dogs. Thank you so much Christian!! We are so glad we found you! My brothers a”

About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life. I have three sweet, friendly dogs of my own, and I truly treat them like my children. In my home, dogs are family—they’re welcome on the furniture, can sleep in the bed if that’s what they’re used to, and get plenty of love, attention, and playtime. We have a large yard where the dogs love to run and play, and they’re just as happy relaxing inside together. I understand that every dog has their own personality and routine, so I do my best to make them feel safe, comfortable, and right at home while you’re away. My goal is for you to have complete peace of mind, knowing your pup is being cared for just like one of my own. Pet care is already a big part of my everyday life because I have three dogs of my own. I work part-time with a flexible schedule, and both my significant other and I work just five minutes from home, so the dogs are never left alone for long. My daily routine revolves around feeding, exercise, playtime, and lots of attention, so welcoming another dog into our home fits in naturally. I make it a priority to ensure every dog feels safe, loved, and cared for as if they were my own. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. My home has a large, fully fenced yard where dogs can safely run and play. I also have a dedicated dog room, as well as kennels available if a dog needs their own space for meals, rest, or if separation is preferred. My home is clean, pet-friendly, and free of hazards, so you can feel confident that your dog will be in a safe environment. Whether your pup loves to play or simply relax, they’ll receive plenty of love, attention, and personalized care in a secure, welcoming home.
About: What sets me apart is my lifelong experience caring for animals and the genuine love and patience I bring to every pet. I’ve been around both dogs and cats my entire life and have experience caring for them for family and friends. I currently have a puppy that I’ve raised since she was just 8 weeks old, so I understand the time, consistency, and attention young dogs need. From potty training routines and reinforcing basic commands to providing plenty of exercise, playtime, and affection, I’m comfortable caring for puppies as well as adult pets. I treat every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Pet care fits very well into my daily schedule. I have a flexible routine that allows me to dedicate time to feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and giving pets the attention they need. Since I already care for my own puppy every day, I’m used to planning my schedule around a pet’s needs and making sure they receive consistent care. I’m dependable, organized, and committed to following each pet’s routine so they stay happy and comfortable while their owner is away. I care for every pet as if they were my own. I make sure they have fresh food and water, get plenty of exercise and playtime, and receive lots of love and attention. I follow each owner’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications, potty breaks, and any special routines their pet is used to. I also keep a close eye on their behavior to make sure they’re happy, comfortable, and healthy. My goal is to help pets feel safe, relaxed, and cared for while their owners are away.

I’ve had experience in the veterinary field and want to pursue the veterinary field and become a licensed veterinarian! I am free for whenever is needed!

Currently own 3 dogs, one is a 6 year old pit bull, the others are a 3 year old lab and a 6m old corgi. As your sitter you can expect your dog to play, run and be tuckered out by the time you come home. I also offer baths, nail trims and minor grooming. I am studyinging to get my ADT for dog training, I can offer some training in leash walking, manners and a few comands now but hope to expand that in the future. I look forward to meeting you and your 4 or 3 legged companions. Thank you for your consideration in you pet sitting needs. Im home all day except for school drop off and pick up for my kids. Weekends are always available unless my slots are full. If your dog has separation anxiety please inform me before booking so I can make arrangements for school drop off/pick up so your baby wont be left alone. With on demand potty breaks and play time your fur baby will have a ball here. Water is filled hourly or as needed and food is offered on the owner's schedule, 2am feedings for fluffy? Not a problem!
“Micah is always so helpful when we are out of town. She takes our sweet pup on daily walks and send lots of pictures. She always responds quickly and often on short notice. She really does make our life easier and makes being away less stressful knowing that our pup is in great hands!”
About: I have owned dogs since was 9/10 years-old, and enjoy playing with dogs and love keeping them occupied espically puppies. For puppies, I like to help potty-train them by offering treats to understand that "outside is where we use the bathroom not inside". I also pay really close attention to due to possible getting into things. I watch out for things that could possibly hurt your dog. As a dog owener myself I will treat your dog as if it was my own dog at home, giving all the attention and play time there hearts desire. I’m currently not working so I am available during select times. I also know what it is like to need a caregiver for your pets while you are away on a business trip or just a quick get away from reality. I live in an apartment complex where everyone keeps to themselves but as for any home I would treat it as if it were my home and how I would want to make sure things are in the right place
