About: Hi! I’m a veterinary professional with over 12 years of hands-on experience in animal care, and caring for pets is truly what I love most. With my background in veterinary medicine, I’m comfortable handling everything from healthy, active pets to those who need a little extra support. I have experience caring for geriatric pets, special needs animals, and those requiring complex medication routines, including diabetics and other medical conditions. You can feel confident knowing your pet is in knowledgeable, capable hands. I offer: • In-home boarding in a safe, structured environment • Drop-in visits in your home • Care tailored to your pet’s specific needs and routine For in-home boarding, I use a “crate and rotate” system when needed. This simply means pets take turns having free time to ensure everyone stays safe, stress-free, and comfortable—especially important when pets don’t already know each other and is very helpful for rescue pets , high anxiety and elderly animals as it offers a more relaxed and one on one environment where they can be as stress free as possible while in my care. During their time out, your pet will get plenty of one-on-one attention, playtime, and enrichment, so they’re not missing out on love or activity. I do have children in the home who are taught to respect animals and understand boundaries. For everyone’s safety and comfort, they have little to no direct contact with boarding pets. My priority is maintaining a calm, controlled, and safe environment for every animal in my care. My goal is always to provide a safe, low-stress, and loving environment while keeping your pet’s routine as consistent as possible. If your pet has special needs or you just want someone with a trained eye looking after them, I’d love to help! I am employed full time but currently on maternity leave and looking to move to pet sitting full time if possible. If I am unable to currently accommodate a request I will be transparent as I believe every pet should have the care they are accustomed too and deserve ! In my home, I provide a safe, structured, and low-stress environment tailored to each pet’s needs. I use a crate and rotate system because my personal dogs are not always social with others. This ensures that every pet stays safe and comfortable while still receiving plenty of one-on-one attention, playtime, enrichment, and proper rest. I follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, potty breaks, exercise, and any medications or special care they require. In your home, I offer drop-in visits designed to keep your pet comfortable in their own space. During each visit, I provide feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, playtime, affection, and medication administration if needed. I also keep an eye on your pet’s overall health and behavior, so you have peace of mind while you’re away. With my veterinary background, I’m experienced in caring for senior pets, special needs animals, and those requiring more complex medical care, and I always prioritize safety, consistency, and a calm environment.

About: I am a huge animal lover, who enjoys spending time with dogs and cats of all kinds, I have a couple of cats at home, but I’ve always had a special love for dogs too. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or just some cuddle time, on the couch, I love making pets feel happy and cared for. I currently work from home and make my own schedule. I also have a very reliable car so I am very flexible with a schedule. I can care for your pet in the comfort of your home, keeping their routine, just the way they like it. From feeding, playtime, and walks to cuddles and companionship, I make sure they feel loved and secure while you’re away.

About: Wilbert and I have cared for animals our entire lives, from small pets like rodents and birds, dogs and cats to horses and livestock of all sizes. Our goal is always to make every pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. We both hold bachelor’s degrees in Animal Science and have hands-on experience working in veterinary settings, which allows us to provide attentive and knowledgeable care. I provide dedicated, focused attention during each visit and treat every pet and home with respect and responsibility. I keep routines consistent and make sure pets feel secure and well cared for. When caring for pets in your home, I strictly follow house guidelines and I’m very mindful about cleanliness and organization, I make it a priority to leave the home tidy and in excellent condition after each visit. Visits are typically extended and can be scheduled multiple times per day or customized based on your pet’s needs. During visits I handle feeding, enrichment, companionship, cleanup, and well-being checks. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I schedule my days around the pets I’m caring for to make sure they receive consistent attention and timely visits. I plan my calendar carefully so I’m not overbooked and can give each household focused, reliable care. I’m available for extended daytime and evening visits and can provide multiple visits per day based on your pet’s needs. Safety and trust are my top priorities. I follow all owner instructions closely and keep routines consistent to reduce stress for pets. I remain only in authorized areas of the home and am very mindful about cleanliness and security, I make it a point to leave the home tidy and well maintained after each visit. With my Animal Science background and veterinary setting experience, I’m comfortable monitoring behavior, appetite, hydration, and general health. I take precautions with doors, gates, leashes, feeding instructions, and medication directions. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners feel confident and informed while away.

“Salena has been consistently available, responsible and on time. My dog really does love her and Salena gives her a lot of love. While it’s not easy having someone in my apt while I’m at work, I do feel comfortable with Salena. Thank you!”

“My dog is fearful of any new people and Lorraine was so patient with him! She knew just what to do and is truly a dog lover. It is such a relief to know we have someone willing to work at our pups pace and comfort level.”

About: I love Rover! I mean, what better job exists than to get paid to spend time with other people's animals? My name is Dan, and I have been around animals my whole life. Currently I am a cat dad of two girls, but I am also comfortable and familiar with dogs, rabbits, and other animals as well. I currently live in a large three bedroom. The property is out in the country, but only a few miles away from Gainesville, so it's far enough to be away from the sounds and stress of the city without really being in the middle of nowhere. It's not the fanciest place, in need of remodeling, but it is calm, comfortable, and pet friendly. There is no smoking inside. The property is not fenced, so I will be keeping everyone inside, except for supervised walks, etc. I am able to board cats, most dogs, and other animals as well. I work from home in addition to doing this, so when I do have a furry guest, I am home twenty four hours a day. I like to actually spend time with the animals I have visiting, so if you have a super playful dog- or one that just likes to hang out on the couch next to someone- I'd probably be a good match. If I am not boarding anyone at the moment, I can walk dogs, feed cats, etc, as well, as long as you are not too far away from where I live. Things I require: 1. I need to meet your animals first (especially for dogs). 2. If I don't feel comfortable , or I feel like an animal is not comfortable with me, I will not confirm the booking. Animals are just like people, we all have those we like and don't like, so don't take it personal if I decline a booking. 3. I do need emergency contact and vet information. I hope I never have to deal with any emergency, but it is better to be prepared and ready, than to be running around scrambling if something does happen. 4. Of course, I need as much food, etc, as is needed for the stay. Things I offer: 1. Lots of attention. Of course, some animals- especially some cats- aren't really keen on it, and that's okay! But if they are, I love to play with my guests! 2. I don't mix animals from different families. 3. I don't charge extra for extra cats, and I only charge a little bit extra for extra dogs. I have been doing this off and on for some time now, and while I don't have as many clients as I want to have, my reviews are good and solid for a reason. I have my own two cats who take up all my time when I'm not out taking care of other people's animals, or otherwise working. The only time I'm usually not available is if I have already made prior commitments. I treat animals like they are children, because to me, they are. My own two are my favorite people in this world, but I love animals in general. I especially enjoy cats, friendly dogs, and giant rabbits. 😃 I like to treat each cat, dog, rabbit, etc, as the unique personality they are. Some cats, for example, are a little more standoffish than others. The best thing to do with them is to not push them. Nobody cat or human likes someone standing in front of them demanding attention ! Some dogs, for example, are very laid back and really just want to lay next to you and snuggle. Others are always ready to play! I am knowledgeable about safety, and when I am doing a drop in visit, I always keep an eye out for anything that doesn't look right. When I am dog walking, I like to go places that are less traveled, I keep my attention fully on them, and on everything going on around us. When I am with your animals, they are my first and only priority.

“Colleen was super sweet and very dog savy. She took great care of my baby! I would highly recommend her for anyone to use as she is a very trust worthy and sweet doggy care giver!”

About: I’ve taken care and owned all kinds of animals since I was young, from hamsters, fish & birds to cats and dogs. I have several years experience dog and cat sitting alike and currently have a cat of my own. I also have experience administering oral and topical medication if needed. No ask is too much! I work from home, so house-sitting is no problem as long as I have wifi! I’m also flexible with drop-in visits because of my job. I’ve had several cats of my own and have lived with various dog breeds/sizes. I have experience with crate trained dogs as well.

About: I’ve always had pets growing up. Sometimes up to 5 dogs at a time and horses too! So I have lots of experience with animals of various sizes. From chihuahuas and cocker spaniels to German Shepherds and poodles. I currently own a very friendly sterilized full sized golden doodle. He loves all dogs, humans and human puppies and he is down to play non-stop or nap all afternoon. Either one is fine with him. My dog is up to date on vaccines and flea + tick medication. I live in a house on .25 acres with 6ft fenced back yard. Large couch with pup-covers. Kiddie pool available for those who like to swim. Whether your pup is staying with me, or we are going on a walk, they are sure to have fun and I will spoil them just as I would my own! Looking forward to meeting your furry friend! I’m home most of the day. Lots of time for pets and walks. Happy to adapt my schedule to your pups needs. Let me know what the ideal day looks like for them. I have a 1/4 acre yard with a 6ft privacy fence. I also have a large doggie door where my pup can go in and out when they please.

About: I’ve been taking care of Dogs since I was 8 different types of dogs. This allowed me to understand different types of dog behavior. It's been a true passion of mine to take care of dogs. I'm currently free as of now. I have time to house sit just about anytime of the week whether it's a weekend or a weekday at any time scheduled. I have a fenced-in yard that sits around 2 acres which allows bigger or smaller dogs to be able to get their Exercise or space needed to play.

“Great with Zulu! Nadia has been absolutely wonderful walking our standard poodle, Zulu. She keeps a great pace and covers a solid distance on every walk—which is exactly what Zulu needs to stay healthy and happy. You can tell she truly enjoys being with dogs, and Zulu always comes back from their outings relaxed and content. Nadia is punctual, professional, and communicative. Highly recommend her if you're looking for someone who treats your dog like their own and actually gets them moving!”
