House Sitting in Wakulla Springs

About: On a mission to become a star sitter! - About me - People have always described me as an animal whisperer, because so many animals I’ve met in my life loved me at first sight! Even exotic pets. 💕 That’s why I started pet sitting. I’m 20 years old and I’ve been pet sitting as a side gig for a few years now! Pet sitting is something I absolutely adore, as I am a huge animal lover. - More about my experience/expertise - • I’ve taken care of many special needs animals over the years, so I’m very knowledgeable regarding animal disability and senior care! • I have lots of experience in medical administration and care! A lot of practice and patience comes through that process so I’ve learned just about everything there is to know about body language and trust. • I’ve taken care of sooo many puppies and I can very much keep up with play time and puppy needs! - What sets me apart from other sitters - • I make sure to take silly and cute photos all throughout the visit for you to save/post to your socials! 💕 • I make sure to follow every step you make for me perfectly. No steps forgotten, no steps skipped! • If the pups make any mess within the house, I have a tendency of sweeping before I leave. So technically you’re hiring a pet sitter and a house cleaner? 👀 If you have any general questions for me don’t be afraid to ask! I’d love to hear from you. Rest assured all fur babies are always safe in my presence. 💗 I look forward to meeting with you! I update my profile every day so no worries on incorrect information! If you book with me, I’ll make sure to work out a time that works for both me and you! Lots of gaining trust during our first session and onward! Allowing them to sniff me, get a feel of me, no overly pushy or obnoxious behaviors that will set off fear/anxiety. I am very gentle with people as well as animals and I intend on doing the best I can for their needs. Lots of love and pets, understanding of anxiety/fear, offering treats and praise, patience is key. ☺️

“Camille is wonderful! We're very pleased she is able to take care of Cooper while we're away.”

“Kayla was very communicative and proactive about updates, and she left my home cleaner than it was when I left town. Thanks for the great job!”

“Aaliyah is the best and very easy to get along with! She stayed the night with my pup for two nights. She was extremely responsive and sent me regular pictures + updates. She was SO flexible with me pushing the dog sitting back one day and then later asking to extend it another day. She spent a ton of time at the house with Bowie and was intentional about giving him enrichment and playtime. She left the key exactly where I asked her to and locked all of my doors. She was respectful of our home and left it exactly how it was before she got here. She is my new go to pet sitter!”

About: I have taken care of friends and families pets since I was 11 and love sharing my love for other fur babies! Growing up with what seemed like a zoo of animals gave me my love for animals- also giving me an extra 8 years of experience. I am currently a full time college student at FSU and am off of school until August. Please message me if you have any questions! I will follow all directions you provide for your pet: feeding times, scheduled walks, playtime, safety, medications, etc. My goal is for you to receive updates and get the best care for your pet(s) without any worry on how they are doing! I hope you consider me to look after your fur babies!

“I would recommend Andrew to anyone and have no reservations booking him again. My two adult pitbulls adore Andrew. I'm borderline concerned that they like him more than me. Andrew was in contact with me everyday I was away. He sent videos and photos as well as exact times when they started and ended walks. Additionally Andrew asked permission before doing things. Despite being a fairly relaxed person with people using the amenities, I truly appreciated Andrew asking for my consent prior to using them. Definitely give Andrew a call and see if he's available to watch your fur babies. I'm glad I did.”

About: I have taken care of all kinds of cats and dogs. From family and friends to just neighbors. I love taking care of people’s pets because it allows me to get to know them and enjoy them from a far. I am currently finishing up my senior year in high school. I am available most weekends for now, but will be looking for more opportunities over the summer. I am very trustworthy and care for peoples pets as if they were my own. I am also very careful when in others peoples homes because I would expect the same treatment if they were in my home or taking care of my pets.

About: I have owned or cared for my own dogs my entire life. Having lost my senior 'Stanley' last year I find myself longing for a dog's company and spirit. My own dogs have lived long lives - two for 18 years, one for 17 so I know how to give meds and care for their special needs. Stanley's petsitter recommended I try Rover - so here I am! I can come to your house, or bring your dog here to my 1/2 acre fenced in yard, with a dog door to the house and lots of time to share with your pet. I am retired and in Tallahassee or the vicinity walking or meeting up with friends. I have lots of free time to share with your pet. I have a 1/2 acre fenced in yard and a dog door to the house. I have a pool. I can come to your house if needed, or care for your dog here.

About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats of all ages and personalities, and I always make sure they feel safe, loved, and well-looked after. I have experience house sitting, cleaning up the home before owners return, and sticking to daily routines. After work I would head straight over to let the dogs out, keep them company, and make sure they got plenty of attention. On weekends I enjoyed taking them on long walks around the neighborhood. I’ve also cared for three dogs and two cats at the same time, including baths when needed. On top of that, I’ve raised a rescue kitten from just one week old—bottle feeding every two hours, teaching him to walk, use the litter box, and transition to solid food—so I’m very comfortable with pets who need extra patience or special care. Since I have a flexible work schedule, I am able to plan my days around pet care. I’m available most afternoons, evenings, and weekends for walks, check-ins, or overnight care. I keep pets safe by following your routines closely and maintaining a clean, calm environment. I’m careful with doors, crates, feeding schedules, and any instructions you leave for me.

“Lacy and Tally took wonderful care of our fur babies for a long stay over Christmas and NYE! They sent regular updates and photos that made us feel like the babies were getting lots of snuggles and being well taken care of. It was great to have that peace of mind over such a long trip. And the house was in great condition when we got back. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Lacy and Tally or to book them again.”

About: I have over 6 years of experience as a veterinary technician and am comfortable caring for dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I have experience administering medications (oral, topical and injectable), recognizing early signs of illness and maintaining structured, low stress routines. I do best with dogs that are comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time and thrive on consistency. I take a calm, patient approach and tailor care to each dog’s individual needs, whether that’s relaxed companionship, routine potty breaks or extra attention for seniors. My goal is to provide reliable, stress free care while keeping your dog safe, comfortable, and on their normal routine. I have a flexible schedule and structure my day around pet care visits, drop-ins and overnight stays. I’m able to provide consistent morning and evening care, along with mid-day visits when needed. For house sitting, I provide overnight care and routine check-ins throughout the day, while maintaining a realistic schedule outside of the home. I prioritize keeping pets on their normal routine to reduce stress while you’re away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize maintaining a calm, clean and secure environment. I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, medications and household routines. With my background as a veterinary technician, I’m trained to recognize early signs of illness or stress and respond appropriately. I take a low stress, patient approach and respect each pet’s comfort level, especially with shy or sensitive animals. I’m reliable, detail-oriented and treat every home and pet with the same level of care and respect I would expect for my own.

About: I grew up on a farm where I learned about the care for many different animals. I’ve pet sat for others since I was 16 and have been raising my own fur babies for almost 7 years now. I’m gentle, attentive, and value being on time. I’ll treat your fur baby like my own family with professional belly rubs and lots of walks! I am currently in nursing school, so when I’m not in class or at clinicals, I’m available to care for your pet however I am needed any day of the week. I am capable of tailoring care to your pet’s needs. Whether that means needing to be crated, given medication, bathed, or fed a certain way, I will do it. I know how important it is to want to be stress free when leaving your pet in the care of someone else which is why I want to create a safe and trustworthy environment so that you don’t have to worry while away.

“Louisa did an amazing job! I have a kitty with special care/feeding instructions that require attention to detail that she followed perfectly. She also took great care of my home and provided updates on everything as I away. I could tell she genuinely cares about animals just from our initial meet & greet too. I always get so nervous leaving my cat when I go on trips but Louisa absolutely earned my trust and I will be booking with her again in the future for sure as long as she’s still pet sitting. Thank you so much again :)”

About: Been around dogs, cats, gerbils, and birds throughout my life. All pets are considered family. They need love, respect, and guidance, too. I have walked dogs, groomed cats, cleaned out kennels, cages, and cat boxes, and play is important even for older pets. Most of my days have availability for pet care. A good time for care could be early morning, mid day, or late afternoon/evening just keep communication clear and timely. I have two cats who require biscuit making cuddles and play everyday. I groom their fur and shorten their nails as needed. Feeding for them is twice a day and their play incorporates exercise.

About: I’ve personally kept animals of all sizes and breeds for family members and myself. I currently have a mixed breed dog I rescued and kitten I rescued. I am extremely passionate about animals and I love helping people in any way I can. I am currently working a full time job on weekdays but my weekends are free to walk, stop in, or house sit for your pups or kitties! I am very good at following instructions so I usually take care of pets as closely as the owner would, with specific details on how you take care of them. I am very careful with the animal as well, speaking calmly and interacting sweetly.

“Elizabeth did a great job taking care of my two boys! She communicated well and sent pictures, which gave me great peace of mind! Will definitely book with her again!”

About: I’ve taken care of every kind of dog since I was about 10 years old. Throughout the years I have cared for my neighbors and family friends pets along side my own pups. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine because I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate time and attention to the pets I care for. I plan my days so that walks, feeding times, playtime, and check-ins are done consistently and on schedule. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, my priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while maintaining their normal routine as much as possible. I carefully follow the owner’s instructions for feeding schedules, medications (if needed), potty breaks, and exercise so their pet experiences as little disruption as possible. In my home, I provide a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment where pets can relax, play, and receive lots of attention. I make sure they have a comfortable place to rest, regular potty breaks, supervised playtime, and plenty of affection. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat their space with the same respect I would my own. I stick closely to the pet’s usual routine, provide walks and playtime, keep food and water fresh, and make sure the home stays tidy. I also provide updates and photos so owners can feel reassured that their pets are happy and well cared for while they’re away. My goal is always to make pets feel loved, safe, and stress-free while their owners are gone.

About: My family has owned dogs my entire life - I grew up learning how to best care for them. Very trustworthy, kind, loyal, and loving! I’ve had dogs through all the stages - puppy through senior care. (currently in film graduate school, so my availability reflects mainly weekends. BUT - I am willing to make weekday hours work as well, so please feel free to still reach out to talk about that!) I’m currently a graduate student - but i’m willing to make my schedule work to accommodate your needs! Whatever you need, i’m here to make it work for you, guaranteed! I’m great at following rules and instructions. Whatever your pet needs, I’ll be able to give them guaranteed. I’ve had experience with many breeds also!

“Isaac was an absolutely amazing dog sitter! Super caring, attentive, and really took the time to understand our dog’s needs. He spent the whole weekend playing with him and making sure he was happy and comfortable. On top of that, he surprised us with a beautiful sketch of our dog, which was such a thoughtful touch. We came home to a very happy pup and couldn’t recommend him more!”

About: I’ve been a dog and cat groomer for 4 years. I grew up on a farm taking care of all the animals from horses, cows, pigs, chickens , dogs , cats , turkeys etc. I’m very patient with animals who take more time to get to know new people who come into their lives and I love my senior animals who take a little longer on our walks :) I just moved to Florida from Arizona. This will be my full time job for now until I am able to save up to start my own mobile dog and cat business and hopefully be able to provide grooming services to all my lovely clients I am very reliable and flexible. I have always been the neighborhood help for pet care when my neighbors went on vacation. I’ve helped with feeding their farm animal and their indoor animals . I always follow the instructions giving to me and I always show up on time !
