“Ashley was so amazing and caring with our puppy! I highly recommend her to anyone needing a sitter for their fur baby. She made sure we were at ease by keeping us posted with comments and pictures.”

“Timmy, Tucker and Shelby’s stay was very good. Nina did an excellent job and always sent an email or text on how the dogs were doing with pictures. I would definitely use Nina again! Thanks again Nina.”

“Katrina and her girls were awesome! This was our first time leaving for a vacation since we adopted our dog so of course we were a little nervous. Katrina and her family immediately put us at ease. Our pound pup was nervous upon arrival but Katrina met us at the door with treats and knew just what to do to chill our dog out. She has a beautiful property with lots of room for our dog to run and sniff. While we were gone Katrina kept us updated with how our pup was doing and sent us plenty of pictures. If I could give more stars I would! We plan on trusting our Izzy with Katrina and her family from here on out.”

“We are so grateful even on last minute notice she took our booking for our sweet Lily. She made sure we are updated with pictures and also she accommodate when we got stuck in traffic and was not able to pick Lily on time. We cannot thank her enough for taking such great care for our furbaby!”

“Anas and Tate are the best! They took great care of Kaine and Lyuba like their own. We appreciate the cute pictures and videos to keep us posted. There's nothing like confidence and assurance that your dogs are safe, comfortable and loved when you're away from them and that's what Anas and Tate gave us. So thank you so very much. We truly appreciate you.”

“Our dogs came home healthy and happy! Annie was very responsive and sent us pictures and video of our dogs while we were away! I will definitely ask Annie to watch our dogs again!”

“My baby loves them!!! They treat him like their own! We appreciate the tips they give us on his care and the daily updates when he’s in their care.”

“Highly recommend! She gave me peace of mind with regular updates and photos. Afterwards, she gave me feedback on how to keep him happy and healthy. My first experience with Rover and definitely not my last! Thank you!!”

“Adam has friendly dogs that played with our Hayden.. We were updated with videos and pics several times a day. I think Hayden enjoyed himself as much as we did on our vacay”

“Again thank you for taking care of Arthur! Alexander & Josephine are such a wonderful sitter. I fell assured when Arthur is with them! Highly recommended !”

“Let me say that J.J. is amazing! My dog Navi, stayed with her while my family went on Christmas vacation. It was our fist time away from him in a year. JJ sent me pictures and videos of Navi, even on Christmas Day. Navi was well taken care of and loved while he was in her home. I highly recommend JJ!”

“I had an excellent experience boarding my dog, Bentley, with Elijah. From the very beginning, it was clear that Bentley was in great hands. Elijah provided daily updates with photos and detailed notes about how Bentley was doing, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. In every photo, Bentley looked incredibly happy and comfortable in Elijah's home. It’s clear Elijah truly cares about the dogs he watches. I will definitely be using his services again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable and communicative boarder!”

“Leah, dog, and family were awesome! Our dog loved being with them. We felt very comfortable leaving Bleue. We forgot his favorite ball at home and Leah ordered a new one for him. We will definitely leave Bleue with Leah again. Thank you for taking such good care of him!”


“Melissa is fantastic! She kept us informed with pictures and updates and made sure our boys felt right at home! They came home happy and well cared for and we couldn't be more thankful! We will definitely book with Melissa again soon!”

“When we boarded my dog cooper with Sylvia, he had an absolutely great time with Sylvia and her family !! She was incredibly caring and communicative with us !! Book without hesitation !! :)”

“Astrid loved her stay with Nautica and her 4 dogs (and cat, and chickens). She had tons of time playing outside in a big fenced in yard with other friendly playmates. She had a crate available for her to sleep in a long with a "private room" of sorts. Nautica kept me updated through the app with anything that happened and sent tons of pictures and videos showing me my baby while I was away. Would love to book again whenever we go out of town again.”

About: Someone in my family always had a cat, and I always wanted to be friends because I could never have one. I learned the hard way very young that cat trust is hard earned. Once I was old enough, cats in need of homes fell into my lap and they have taught me more patience than I ever expected, especially when handling introducing new cats to established homes. From fighting flying fur bunnies, to combating the endless litter boxes, cats after surgeries and on meds, I’ve had a lot of experience helping cats feel their most comfortable.
“Katie did an amazing job with my fur babies, I will totally be using her again. I came home to a clean house with everything done (food, water, litter boxes) even medication which not everyone can do. All kitties have 5 meows too! Great to be able to leave town and know your home and babies are safe and cared for just like you would.”

“Stephanie was so good with Nina. She definitely made me feel comfortable leaving her in her hands! She was also very accommodating and understanding.”


“Jonathan is the best! Each day he sent us photos of our sweet old cat Easy, and I could tell from the photos and accompanying messages that Jonathan was doing a good job and Easy was at ease.”
“Cheryl was great with my chocolate lab. She was very communicative with anything that came up. And even stayed little longer when she noticed Bailey was very anxious and seemed unwell. Thanks Cheryl for taking care of Bailey. Bailey had a great time with her too!”

About: What makes me different from other sitters is my genuine love for animals and my commitment to providing personalized care for each pet. I don't just see it as a job; I treat every animal as if they were my own, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and happy while you're away. My afternoons and evenings are quite flexible and perfect for pet care! After school gets out around 2 PM, I'm free to dedicate my time to your furry friends. My weekends are completely open, so I can offer full-day care, overnight stays, or even just longer visits to give your pet extra attention. I'm happy to tailor my schedule to meet your specific needs and your pet's routine! I'm also available for check-in visits before 2 PM, if needed, but my availability is limited due to school. General care: I always follow your specific instructions for feeding, medication, and exercise. I make sure your home is secure when leaving, and I'm always vigilant about potential hazards to keep your pet safe. Dog walking: I keep dogs on a leash at all times (unless otherwise instructed in a secure area), avoid busy roads, and am always aware of the dog's behavior and surroundings. Overnight stays: I maintain your pet's routine as closely as possible, provide companionship, and ensure they feel safe and comfortable. I also keep you updated with photos and messages. All services: I treat your home with respect, clean up after your pet, and leave everything as I found it. I'm also always available to answer any questions or concerns you may have.

I grew up with several pets who were part of the family, including a dog and four cats. Currently, I have a crested gecko named Savoofy 🦎 and a mixed Jack Russell dog named Taro 🐶 , whom I adore.

I truly look forward to every walk or jog, every drop-in, every moment with the pets. ◾️Outside of pet-sitting, I love hiking, photography, and art (often with my pup by my side! 📷🌳).

Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I have a flexible schedule and plenty of availability throughout the day. I’m able to provide morning, afternoon, and evening check-ins, walks, feeding, playtime, and companionship to make sure pets stay comfortable and cared for while their owners are away.

About: I have had dogs my whole life and love them all from the big lap dogs and small hand babies and a few in between. I have had all different breeds of babies with all different sad stories who are now just trying to live their best lives. I have raised puppies and cared for babies until their end of life and all the stages in between. I have raised abused babies, starved babies, drop offs, puppy mill babies and now some spoiled rotten babies. I am able to accommodate many different needs since I am a stay at home mom and I would love to help you give your babies their best life. Please feel free reach out and ask any questions. I am a stay at home mom so pet care, kid care, husband care is my routine. Most of my dogs eat 2x per day but 1 is on a special diet and has to eat 3. All of my dogs have different diet demands so I feed them all individually so adding another pup to the routine will be very simple so I can meet whatever meal time needs you have. I have a doggy door and fenced yard for potty trained pups and I still take 1 of my babies out through out the day and can help your pup with potty training if needed. My schedule revolves around whatever needs to be done. Since I am a stay at home mom most requests can be accommodated by just asking. I want your baby to feel as loved as mine. I have a LARGE fenced in yard and kids and pups for plenty of entertainment and snuggles. My big dogs are crate trained and crated at night or they would stay up ALL night playing. My little dogs sleep with me. My dogs are family so movie night and activities include everyone. I also carry pet care insurance to cover you and me.
About: I have owned cats and dogs all of my life and can't imagine my home without them. Animals give us unconditional love, and they deserve the same in return. I have given IV treatments to ailing cats with kidney damage and experience with dispersing meds/pills by mouth. I will treat all your loved ones with the same care that I provide my own. I am retired; I work independently from home and have a lot of free time. I am looking for some fur babies to take care of so their guardians can feel comfortable leaving them. I will treat all dogs and cats like my own and I take their care very serious. If that means sending daily videos or pictures to their guardians to put them at ease, I am happy to do just that. I am happy to feed, water and clean pet areas as part of my home visits. I will scoop litter boxes as well. I take their health seriously and fresh water/food is a very important part of staying healthy. I find no ask unreasonable and will check in with pet parents as often as requested.
“This was my second time with her! As always, she was attentive and caring. Strangely my fur baby eats well with her despite him being a picky eater. It feels really secured to have a day care where I can trust with confidence. Will continue to use her service going forward!”


“Where do I begin? I don't think there are words that could describe the wonderful and amazing experience I and my puppy had with Ana. From the moment of our arrival, it was evident Ana's home is and all inclusive resort for all dogs of all ages and breeds! Ana, met me and my puppy outside and there was an instant connection not only between my puppy and Ana but the calming sense of she was someone I could trust with my baby. She took the time to answer my thousand questions, never once made me feel rushed or as if I was a bother. Her and her brother truly do adore all of the animals that are in their care and take all precautions to make sure that each dog that stays there is safe, happy, and has their time of their life while in their care. I got updated videos and photos of my pup while he was in Ana's care and it made all the difference. Ana communicate so well and it is so easy to talk to. We found our forever daycare/boarding place, I truly could not recommend Ana enough she is hands down absolutely the best!”

“Bud had a good day. This was his first doggy daycare, and it was a positive experience for Bud and his family. Haylie kept me updated throughout the day; she was kind and seemed to really enjoy taking care of him. It was nice for him to also have time with her golden doodle and child. Thank you Haylie”

“Dana is a lovely human being who “gets” dogs and has made her home into a place of comfort and flexibility in response to a dog’s needs. We looked a long time for a caretaker and place that our little Velcro pandemic pup responded to positively and are so happy to have found Dana.”

About: Animals have always been one of my greatest passions, and I have dedicated much of my life to their care and well-being. Throughout college, I worked at an animal hospital, where I gained hands-on experience assisting with the care of animals of all ages, breeds, and medical needs. That experience strengthened my knowledge of animal behavior, health, and compassionate care while reinforcing my commitment to advocating for those who cannot speak for themselves. Beyond my professional experience, I have owned and fostered multiple dogs at one time, providing safe, loving homes while helping prepare them for permanent families. I have also volunteered extensively with the nonprofit F.U.R., where I transported rescue animals across the state, fostered litters of puppies, and supported countless rescue efforts. These experiences have taught me the importance of patience, adaptability, and teamwork in animal welfare. I believe every animal deserves compassion and respect, regardless of breed, age, size, or background. I approach each animal without bias, focusing instead on understanding their individual needs and providing the care, advocacy, and second chances they deserve. My lifelong dedication to animal welfare continues to drive my passion for making a positive impact in the lives of animals and the people who care for them. As an elementary school teacher, I have a schedule that allows me to provide consistent care and attention to animals. My workday ends in the afternoon, giving me plenty of time each evening for exercise, training, and companionship. I also have weekends, holidays, and school breaks free, and I am home full-time during the summer. This flexibility makes it possible for me to meet the physical and emotional needs of the animals in my care while providing them with a stable, loving environment. I have a large fenced-in backyard that provides a safe, secure space for pets to play and relax. My home is near the water in a large neighborhood with sidewalks and friendly neighbors who also have pets, creating a welcoming and trustworthy environment for walks and outdoor time.
About: Calm, attentive care tailored to your pet. ☀️ Summer Safety Advisory ☀️ Due to Florida’s extreme heat and humidity, dogs are at serious risk of heat exhaustion and heatstroke in as little as 10–15 minutes of exertion during peak sun hours. Because of this, all walks during late spring through early fall may be shortened or adjusted for safety and replaced with enrichment-based activities, shaded sniff time, or indoor play when appropriate. Your dog’s health and comfort always come first. 🐾 Pet Care Experience I provide thoughtful, enrichment-focused care that’s tailored to each pet’s individual needs, energy level, and comfort. My goal is not just to “get through” a visit, but to make sure your pet feels safe, understood, and well cared for while you’re away. I have a background in wildlife sanctuary rehabilitation and have served as an adoptions director, which means I’ve worked hands-on with animals of all temperaments, ages, and medical needs. I’m comfortable administering medications ( just not injections), managing multi-pet households, and supporting shy, anxious, senior, or special-needs pets. My approach to pet care is informed by ongoing education in dog behavior, body language, and force-free, reward-based training. I pay close attention to stress signals, pacing, and environment, and I adjust each visit accordingly. Whether your dog needs structured activity, calm companionship, or space to decompress, I aim to meet them where they are. 🦴 Bonus Enrichment Option I also manage one of Gainesville’s top-rated private Sniffspots, The Zoomie Zone, located in Midtown. This fully private, reservation-only yard is ideal for dogs who benefit from off-leash play without the pressure of public dog parks. Many clients choose to incorporate Sniffspot visits into walks or drop-ins as a way to provide safe zoomies, sniff-based enrichment, or low-distraction decompression time. If you’re interested in adding a Sniffspot visit to your booking, feel free to ask. Returning clients can also receive discount codes for independent bookings. Whether we’re heading out for a structured walk, enjoying shaded sniff time, or keeping things low-key indoors, I focus on providing calm, attentive, and reliable care you can trust. 🗓️ Scheduling and booking process To make sure every booking is safe, smooth, and a good fit, I require a complimentary 15-minute meet and greet for all new clients. This takes place at the location where care will be provided and gives us a chance to review your pet’s routine, home setup, safety needs, and comfort level. **Meet and greet exceptions:** * Cats do not require a meet and greet unless there are medications, behavioral concerns, or a complicated home setup * Puppies under five months may be booked without a meet and greet when appropriate * Returning clients may fast-track future bookings Please schedule your meet and greet at least 72 hours before your first requested service so we have enough time to coordinate properly. After the initial meet and greet, you are all set for future bookings. If you move to a new home or apartment, you are welcome to schedule another visit so I can become familiar with the new layout, entry instructions, and pet-care setup. 🚶♀️ Dog walks and drop-ins I organize dog walks and cat drop-ins into efficient daily routes using flexible arrival windows. This helps reduce unnecessary travel time while still allowing me to provide thoughtful, attentive care during every visit. Dog-care windows: * Standard visits generally take place between 11:30 AM and 2:00 PM * Morning visits may begin as early as 8:00 AM * Evening visits may be available for dogs who need additional flexibility **Cat-care windows:** * My preferred cat visit window is between 11:30 AM and 2:00 PM * Visits requiring medication or strict timing will be scheduled around those needs whenever possible Dogs are generally prioritized earlier because of restroom needs, but every pet receives the same level of care, attention, and communication. 🐾 Premium boarding Boarding is a high-touch, in-home service for clients who want a fully hands-off experience while their dog is away. At this time, boarding is available only to dogs who already have an established walking, drop-in, or daycare relationship with me. This helps ensure your dog is already comfortable with me, my home, my routine, and my resident pets before an overnight stay. While boarding with me, your dog will: * Live inside my home as part of the household * Be my only boarding guest and receive individualized attention * Receive daily enrichment, engagement, and structured downtime * Enjoy supervised access to my private Sniffspot for play, sniffing, and decompression * Follow a routine tailored to their age, energy level, temperament, and physical needs Enrichment may include: * Frozen meals or food puzzles using West Paw Toppls * Sniff-based games, treat hunts, and low-pressure training activities * Nature walks or hikes at San Felasco when weather permits * Visits to quiet recreational fields when no other animals are present * Indoor play and low-impact enrichment during extreme heat or storms Most dogs return home happy, fulfilled, and very ready for a nap. 🚨 Boarding behavior and safety expectations The safety and comfort of my resident pets are a top priority. Dogs boarding with me must be safe around cats and respectful toward my personal dog. Dogs showing aggression, predatory behavior, severe resource guarding, or repeated unsafe behavior toward resident animals may not be eligible for boarding. If a boarding stay must be ended for safety reasons, care may be converted to drop-in visits at your home for feeding, potty breaks, and companionship whenever possible. 🚗 Premium pick-up and drop-off For added convenience, I offer pet transportation as an optional add-on. I can personally pick up or return your dog along my existing daily route, allowing you to leave your dog comfortably at home without coordinating an in-person handoff. This service is priced accordingly to reflect the additional time, travel, and personalized care involved. ⛔ Important booking policies * One complimentary meet and greet is included for new clients * Additional meetings should be booked as a walk or drop-in to cover time and travel * Every pet receiving care must be listed on the Rover booking * Bookings should be confirmed within 48 hours of the meet and greet or the requested time may be released * House-sitting and drop-in bookings follow a seven-day cancellation policy * Availability is not guaranteed until a booking has been formally confirmed by you. through Rover. If you have questions, a complicated schedule, or a pet with unusual care needs, I am always happy to talk through the details before booking. Care philosophy and communication: In my home, pets and plants are family, and every animal in my care is treated with the same level of respect, attention, and consideration I give my own. I understand that every pet has an individual personality and different needs. Some thrive on companionship, while others prefer play, structure, quiet encouragement, or simply having a calm person nearby. My goal is to be a steady, reassuring presence your pet can rely on while you’re away. Whether I’m caring for your pet in their own home or taking them on an enrichment field trip to The Zoomie Zone, I focus on creating a safe, engaging, and low-stress experience that supports both their physical and emotional well-being. During each visit, you’ll receive a detailed Rover Card with notes about meals, potty breaks, mood, activities, and anything noteworthy from our time together. If your pet gives me an especially great photo opportunity, I may also send along a favorite edited image. Unless something genuinely requires your attention, I will not interrupt your vacation, work trip, or conference. My goal is to be both your pet’s advocate and your peace of mind while you’re away. 🚨 Safety and stress policy Safety is always my top priority, both for your pet and for me. If a pet displays aggression, extreme fear, severe anxiety, or behavior that makes a visit unsafe, I will still make every reasonable effort to ensure their essential needs are met, including food, water, medication when safely possible, and potty access. However, I may modify or shorten the visit if continuing would increase stress or create a risk of injury. This is never done as punishment. It is a safety decision intended to prevent escalation and protect everyone involved. Any significant concerns will be clearly documented and communicated to you. 🛏️ Crate or confinement requirement for boarding For boarding stays, dogs must be comfortable resting safely in a crate, exercise pen, gated room, or behind another secure household barrier. This is a firm boarding requirement. At night, during meals when separation is needed, and anytime dogs cannot be directly supervised, boarding guests will be safely confined. This gives every animal appropriate space to rest and ensures all pets remain secure while I am sleeping, showering, completing household tasks, or briefly away from home. Crates and gated spaces are always used as calm, neutral resting areas, never as punishment. If your dog normally uses a crate, pen, gated room, or another confinement routine at home, please share the details with me so I can keep their stay as familiar and low-stress as possible. Dogs do not need to love being crated, but they must be able to tolerate safe confinement without panicking, attempting to escape, or injuring themselves. If your dog is not currently comfortable with any form of secure separation, boarding may not be the right fit at this time. In that case, drop-in care in their own home may be a safer and more comfortable alternative. This is non-negotiable.
“She really helped us out in a pinch with last minute booking for an out of the city day care, we really appreciated it. Our puppy did great and had no issues. We appreciated that she had a fenced in back yard too that allowed our dog to run around. It wad a good experience.”

I have had a house full of pets my entire life, and caring for animals is just part of who I am. My pets are family, and when your dog stays with me, they’ll be treated like one of our own - with love, attention, and lots of tail wags. I live in a safe neighborhood with miles of walking paths we explore daily, and I have a fenced-in backyard that’s been well-tested (and well-loved!) by my playful golden retriever & silly corgi, who are always up for a friendly romp or a game of chase. I have a flexible schedule, never away from home for more than a couple of hours, so your dog will have plenty of company and supervision throughout the day. I’m also comfortable administering medications if needed. Whether your pup needs playtime, snuggles, or a peaceful place to nap, I’m here to make them feel right at home. Pet care is a seamless part of our daily routine! We have flexible schedules with someone always present in the home, so we're able to give plenty of attention and supervision throughout the day. Our mornings usually start with a walk, and we take regular breaks to play in the backyard with our two dogs. We're used to feeding on a schedule, administering medications if needed, and making sure every pet in our care feels loved, safe, and included in the flow of our home. In our home, pets are treated like family. We stick to each dog’s routine as closely as possible - whether that means feeding on a specific schedule, giving medications, or maintaining potty breaks and playtimes. Dogs have full access to our fenced-in backyard for supervised outdoor time, and they’re welcome to relax with us inside as part of the family. We go on daily walks through our neighborhood and love giving pups plenty of attention, affection, and play. My goal is to make every dog feel safe, loved, and at home while you’re away.

About: With over 12 years of petcare experience and multiple indoor pets myself, I think it's safe to say that I love animals! Situated on a 1 acre property, with a fenced front yard, this could be your pets getaway while you get away! Because I have grooming and training experience, I could be your one stop drop! I am a freelance pet artist, therefore I have plenty of time to have fun and interact with my animals! We enjoy walking in the lovely Baldwin bike trial and playing in the yard! I'm practically available all day any day! I have a fenced front yard and 4 lovely rough coated collies! My dogs are very social and love to play! Fun in the sun during the day and crated at night! For pick ups I currently have a Ruffland intermediate kennel for car rides to keep your dog as safe as possible!
“Duchess really seemed to enjoy her stay. Reanaleena made the drop off so easy. Duchess is not accustomed to being in daycare so it was a little scary for her but it seemed to have gone well. I will be using this day care again in the near future.”

About: I go by He/him and It/its! I've been looking after dogs as soon as I turned 8. I have experience with high-energy animals, as I take care of two at the moment. I have experience administering medication, bathing, walking and tending to the needs of those with skin issues. I am fully available any day of the week, including the weekend, starting 10 AM. However, I am not open on Thursdays until after 5 PM. I do not take requests for boarding at the moment due to the unpredictable nature of my own animals. Though I am open to walking, visits and overnight stays.
“Ansley was so helpful walking my fur baby while I was out of town. She updated me daily with breaks and pics, which made leaving my pup behind so much easier for me and for him. She even alerted me to a potential issue with my dog so I could look into it quickly. Would definitely recommend her service to anyone.”

I will treat all dogs and cats like my own and I take their care very serious. If that means sending daily videos or pictures to their guardians to put them at ease, I am happy to do just that. I am happy to feed, water and clean pet areas as part of my home visits. I will scoop litter boxes as well. I take their health seriously and fresh water/food is a very important part of staying healthy. I find no ask unreasonable and will check in with pet parents as often as requested.

“Katrina is an excellent dog walker. She is experienced and knowledgeable about dogs and dog behavior. She is also kind and smart. My 2-year-old Myka loves her!! Myka does a full body wag when she sees Katrina (not just her tail), which she only does for her favorite people.”


About: I have been around animals my entire life and grew up caring for dogs, cats, fish, chickens, goats, and horses. My family has always had dogs, so I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities. Before focusing on college softball, I trained and showed dogs as well as competing in Western Pleasure and barrel racing with horses. These experiences taught me responsibility, patience, and how to confidently care for animals. I will treat your pets like my own and make sure they feel safe, happy, and well cared for. Pet care fits very easily into my weekly routine since I’m currently home for the summer and have a very flexible schedule. I’m taking online summer classes, but I’m able to adjust my study times and work around pet care needs, including mornings, afternoons, and evenings. Almost any time of day works for me, and I’m very open to compromising and coordinating with clients to fit their schedule. I’m used to managing busy routines, so I stay organized, communicate clearly, and am reliable with consistent pet care times. I prioritize safety, consistency, and respect for every pet’s environment. I’ve grown up around animals my whole life, including dogs, cats, horses, and more, and I’ve also helped train and handle dogs in different settings. I pay close attention to behavior and body language, use secure leash handling, and follow any owner instructions carefully.

About: ◾️ When people ask if I'm a dog or a cat person, I say, "I'm an animal person!" I have a lifelong passion to care for nature and animals, whether cats, dogs, or other critter friends! I grew up with several pets who were part of the family, including a dog and four cats. Currently, I have a crested gecko named Savoofy 🦎 and a mixed Jack Russell dog named Taro 🐶 , whom I adore. I'm also looking for a cat to adopt to join the crew soon! 🐈 ◾️ For many years now, I have been pet-sitting for family and friends. Last year I started pet-sitting professionally, and I have loved getting to meet so many incredible pets and spending time with them 😄 ◾️ I have had the joy of caring for a variety of pets of all ages, breeds, medication needs, and energy levels ⚡️, ranging from young to old, from chihuahuas to mastiffs to mixed dogs, from domestic shorthair cats to Maine Coons, and also including reptiles, birds, and fish. I truly look forward to every walk or jog, every drop-in, every moment with the pets. ◾️Outside of pet-sitting, I love hiking, photography, and art (often with my pup by my side! 📷🌳). Can't wait to meet your furbaby! 💕 ◾️ I am a full-time pet-sitter with flexible booking times, so I can accommodate a variety of times to best maintain your pet's/pets' routines! 🗓 ◾️ In-home pet care can work best for many pets, since they are in their most comfortable environment. I am happy to help care for your pet/pets in your home in the best way possible, depending on their needs and personality. I have fun taking dogs for short walks or for longer adventures 🌎, at a slow pace or jogging. I also always enjoy playing with dogs or cats 🎉, or just hanging out with them and checking on them if they're in a more chill mood. I walk dogs rain or shine and will dry their fur afterwards (as long as you and your pup are comfortable with the rain!) I always love getting to see multiple animals at once, and other cute critters like birds, rodents, reptiles, and fish are always welcome too! I am experienced in administering a variety of medications as well. ◾️ Boarding pets in someone else's home can be a great option as well in some cases. I am unable to offer boarding at this time since I live in a small apartment, but my dream is to board all the animals once I have a house with a backyard! 🏡
About: I care very much for the well being of animals and want to make sure that the pets waiting for their owners feel safe with me. After work is usually when I will be able to, my work schedule is pretty random so I would work with the pet owners depending on how long they need me for. My backyard is nice and big enough to run around, but not secure enough for me to leave the pet alone back there. My front yard is nice too but needs the front gate fixed.
About: What makes me different from other sitters is my genuine love for animals and my commitment to providing personalized care for each pet. I don't just see it as a job; I treat every animal as if they were my own, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and happy while you're away. My afternoons and evenings are quite flexible and perfect for pet care! After school gets out around 2 PM, I'm free to dedicate my time to your furry friends. My weekends are completely open, so I can offer full-day care, overnight stays, or even just longer visits to give your pet extra attention. I'm happy to tailor my schedule to meet your specific needs and your pet's routine! I'm also available for check-in visits before 2 PM, if needed, but my availability is limited due to school. General care: I always follow your specific instructions for feeding, medication, and exercise. I make sure your home is secure when leaving, and I'm always vigilant about potential hazards to keep your pet safe. Dog walking: I keep dogs on a leash at all times (unless otherwise instructed in a secure area), avoid busy roads, and am always aware of the dog's behavior and surroundings. Overnight stays: I maintain your pet's routine as closely as possible, provide companionship, and ensure they feel safe and comfortable. I also keep you updated with photos and messages. All services: I treat your home with respect, clean up after your pet, and leave everything as I found it. I'm also always available to answer any questions or concerns you may have.

She has a beautiful property with lots of room for our dog to run and sniff. While we were gone Katrina kept us updated with how our pup was doing and sent us plenty of pictures.
