Default need dog sitter

Am new to the Villages and have twin mini-beagles (20-24 pounds each) who have never been with anyone but family. Extremely friendly, no howling, seldom bark. Need to go north June 23-27 and need really good loving care for them, preferably at your home but will consider here (Rio Grande). Email me at cdsjoan@sbcglobal.net with experience, fees and all your details. Thanks!

Default Pet Sitter

I HIGHLY recommend Yvonne and her number is 352-250-1560...I believe she is away on vacation that week because someone else I know tried to get her... however, for any future dates you definitely want to try her!!! She has been Dog Sitting in the Villges since 2006 and is very well known and adored around here. Best of luck to you!!

Default Dog Watcher

Highly recommended Dog Sitter...Yvonne 352-250-1560...can't say enough good things about her. She will watch in your home or if your dog does not need someone there overnight, visits to your home as often as you prefer.

Can you give me an idea as to the price range for dog sitting?

Check out Bone Crazy on 466A, just past the intersection of Hwy 139. We used to use sitters, but are much happier leaving our dog with Jessie. It is a grooming shop, but she also takes in a few boarders. Her rates are very reasonable. We recently left Rusty for seven weeks and he had a great time. He loves going back.

Denise Kinsey 233-9932 is the best pet sitter we have ever used. She treats our dogs like royalty. You can be away on vacation and not have any concerns about your pet. She will even send you videos.

My dog is diabetic. Is there a pet sitter who can administer insulin?

Charlene and Steve Manieri (352) 633-5063, they go by The VILLAGE SITTER. They even do overnights if requested. Just the two of them, Village residents, also insured and bonded.
