Cat Sitting Winter Haven

“Bonnie has been my saving grace this past week. This was my first time away from my kitten Jade and it was tough, but she sent me adorable pictures everyday and took such good care of my baby. I will definitely recommend her to everyone I know, and I will definitely be rebooking with her too.”

About: I have years of personal experience caring for my own fur babies, as well as experience working in an emergency vet. I am comfortable handling pets who need a little extra TLC due to their health or personality, and nothing makes me happier than giving owners the assurance that their fur family is in good hands💜 I currently have two cats, Dobby and Chai, and I have experience with all ages of pets :) I can care for exotic pets as well (I personally have several invertebrates as well as a blue tongue skink and an African house snake!) I do work full time, so I am not currently able to provide 24/7 services. I currently work overnight (usually Monday and Thursday) but also work Saturday during the day almost every week as well. Please reach out to me with any questions regarding my schedule and how I can best accommodate your babies! I will follow any and all instructions left for me to the letter, as I would want someone to do the same for my pets.

About: I love dogs of all kinds I've had multiple pitbull mixes and even helped care for abused and sick strays. I have a passion for animals and plan on building a career around training and caring for them. I have over 3 years experience of training animals, doing everything from basic obedience to specialized service dog and reactivity training! I love working with and caring for all animals of different kinds and sizes! I am currently working on building my own training business for dogs but my schedule remains open and flexible for any and all of your needs! I treat all dogs in my care as my own as a pet owner myself I understand how hard it can be to trust someone else to care for your babies but rest assured in my care they will be well cared for and I will send regular updates (if requested) about your pets! Any and all instructions left will be followed to the T from play time to walks to cuddles on the couch and maybe even a few treats your pet will be safe well cared for loved and happy in my care

About: I have always loved being surrounded by animals: dogs (greyhounds/dalmatian), cats, horses, guinea pigs, hermit crabs, and even chickens!! I am passionate about learning about what each individual pet needs and their unique personalities! I truly believe that every single pet deserves the best care, love, and attention and I am the best person to provide that care to your pet while you’re away. I am currently raising a 9 month old puppy (Lunaria aka Luna) that we adopted from a shelter at 6 months! I also have 4 guinea pigs that I love and care for! Feel free to reach out! I am pretty flexible with all schedules. The majority of my availability is in the afternoons or evenings, but anytime of day can be scheduled! I have experience with crate training dogs and do keep my puppy in a crate when I have to leave the house due to her age. I enjoy taking Luna on long walks at local parks and have a back of seat system in place to protect her and my car during travels! It is up to you how you keep your fur babies at home and I am flexible to a variety of approaches!

About: I would love the opportunity to meet with you and your fur babies to see if we would be a good fit.I love dogs and cats so much,my life would not be complete without them. I have been in a position that I had to leave my babies at home all day by their self and felt so guilty. So I understand how comforting it is to know,someone can come in and take care of them, and give them the love that they deserve when you cannot. I am very knowledgeable about dogs and their specific needs based on what their particular breed requires. I would provide the best care possible based on their needs and your wants. I have not met a dog that that I didn't love! I love cats too!I have had several dogs over the years that I successfully trained to be well behaved and have been able to correct unwanted behaviors. Many have been rescues.I have helped friends and family anytime they have needed me to over the years. Anything I can do to make your life easier is what I want to do for you.😊 I am retired and would love to take of you best friends at your home. I have to dogs and a cat as well as twin grand babies at my home so I think it's best I sit for you in your home. I can feed, walk and play with your baby or babies. I can bath them and brush them.I will keep them safe at all times.I am good at doing basic training and teaching dogs tricks,(that is most dogs)😊 I will find out about what they like and what they don't like. Their needs depending on their breed, age and health.Depending on your circumstances we will discuss your wishes and I will adhere to them as well as always keep an eye on them, keep them on a leash when outside. Make sure they have everything they need and lots of loving on them if they like to be loved on. I will play with them and make sure to let them outside as often as they need.

About: I’ve always been an animal lover and have experience caring for a wide variety of pets, from dogs and cats to farm animals. I’m comfortable with pets of different ages, personalities, and energy levels, and I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine so they feel comfortable while you’re away. I have experience with feeding, walks, playtime, giving pets attention and companionship, and keeping up with their individual needs. I’m also comfortable caring for multiple animals at once and have experience with livestock from showing sheep, so I’m not afraid of a little extra work! I’m dependable, attentive, and will treat your pets and your home with the same care and respect I would want for my own. My goal is for you to feel completely comfortable knowing your pets are happy, safe, and well cared for while you’re away. My schedule is flexible, and I enjoy making pet care a regular part of my day. I’m able to dedicate plenty of time to walks, playtime, feeding, and giving your pets the attention they need. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness will always be my top priorities. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family members, and I want you to feel completely at ease while you’re away. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality, routine, favorite activities, and any special instructions so I can provide care that feels familiar and stress-free. In your home, I will respect your space, carefully follow your instructions, keep food and water areas clean, maintain litter box cleanliness, and make sure doors and windows are secure. I’m mindful of potential hazards and will never take unnecessary risks with your pet’s safety. I also understand that cats need patience and space to adjust, so I’ll let them approach me at their own pace rather than forcing interaction.

I want you to enjoy your time away knowing your cat is safe, comfortable, and receiving attentive, loving care. My goal is to treat every pet as if they were part of my own family and every home with the same respect I would expect for my own..

About: Dog sitting is more than a job for me- it’s a passion! I’ve spent time with dogs of all sizes, from tiny Terriers to gigantic Great Danes. I’m not just your average sitter; I bring a knack for understanding doggy body language, a talent for getting even the pickiest pups to swallow their pills, and I always carry a bag full of treats (of course!). Whether your dog needs a running buddy, a snuggle partner, or just someone to toss the ball again and again- I’ve got it covered. I pride myself on keeping tails wagging and owners stress free, knowing their fur babies are in the best hands. Since pet sitting is my primary job and I’m currently a college student, my schedule is quite flexible. I can easily incorporate pet care into my daily routine, offering plenty of time for walks, play sessions, and any special needs your dog may have. My evenings and weekends are also free, so I can provide consistent care and attention throughout the week. Safety and trust are crucial when caring for pets in your home. I make sure to follow your specific instructions to the letter, from feeding routines to exercise needs. I will keep your home secure by ensuring all doors and gates are closed and never leave your pet unattended in potentially hazardous situations. I also maintain a clean and organized environment, respecting your space and belongings. Your pet’s well-being is my utmost concern, and I strive to provide the same level of care and attention that you would.

“As a fellow pet parent, I know how nerve-wracking it can be to trust someone else with your furry family member. That’s why I can’t recommend Jessica enough. One of the things that stands out to me about Jessica is her genuine love for animals. She doesn’t just “watch” pets—she takes the time to understand their personalities, routines, and what makes them feel comfortable and safe. Whether your pet is energetic, anxious, shy, or somewhere in between, they’ll be treated with patience, kindness, and so much love. One thing I think every pet parent looks for is someone they can trust, and Jessica is exactly that person. She’s dependable, responsible, communicative, and truly treats every pet as if they were her own. Knowing your pet is with someone who genuinely cares brings a level of peace of mind that’s hard to put a price on. If you’re looking for someone who will provide updates, pay attention to the little details, and make your pet feel loved while you’re away, I wholeheartedly recommend Jessica. Your fur baby will be in amazing hands.”
