Meet Savanna, The Savvy Sitter

Hello!

I am Savanna, Owner and Founder of The Savvy Sitter, Pet Sitting and Dog Walking, LLC. I have grown up with animals all my life and enjoy spending time with them. I have lived in the Winter Garden and Windermere Area for over 30 Years. Though I do not have any animals myself, I love taking care of them and giving them the cuddles, playtime, and treats they deserve. I am an active equestrian, big dogs and horses do not frighten me. When I am not taking care of your Fur Friends, you can find me reading, practicing archery, riding, and figuring out ways to provide additional and great services to our clients!

AMANDA

Throughout my life I have owned and cared for many dogs, cats, hamsters, parakeets, and guinea pigs. Currently, my husband and I are the proud owners of BoBo, our rescue chihuahua mix. He along with my children keep my days full of adventure. I became a pet sitter because of my deep love for animals and I’m excited for the opportunity to meet and care for your fur babies as my own. I am responsible, dependable and passionate about animals and their care and truly believe they are a part of any family.

NORA

I have been a happily married mother of 3 grown children. Lifetime equestrian and animal lover. A recently retired tack shop owner in Winter Garden, I have always had animals in my life and can’t imagine a world without them. I love taking care of and spending time with all the fur babies no matter their age or size. Currently own 2 dogs, a cat, and a retired horse. I volunteer at local Equine Therapy organizations in my free time. I hope to meet some of you and your pets someday soon!

I grew up always having cats and dogs and, of course, horses. I have taken care of dogs, cats, horses, goats and other animals. I enjoy working around animals and can’t imagine doing anything else. I worked at Winter Garden Feed Store for 15 years, helping customers with their animal needs, including horses, dogs, cats, birds-you name it!

Aside from loving on animals, I am also a children’s swim instructor. I have a fur baby named Luna, she is an adopted mix and I love her more than anything!

I live on 3.5 acres in Lake County. During the 22 years I’ve lived here I’ve owned and cared for numerous horses, dogs, and cats. I currently live with 5 dogs and 4 cats. I’ve loved caring for animals all my life. After I retired from the insurance industry I wanted to do something I really enjoy and found a great opportunity with The Savvy Sitter caring for pets when their pet parents are out of town. I look forward to meeting you and your pets!!!!

APRIL

I have shared my home with cats, dogs, fish, and birds throughout my life. I recently welcomed “Moo,” a beautiful, but shy, tabby cat after my 20-year-old kitty, Tank, crossed the Rainbow Bridge. Having attentive, loving care for my pet when I am away is very important to me and delivering the same is my promise to you as I care for yours. I live in Windermere, and I am a National Parks Service Volunteer, serving at Canaveral National Seashore on the Wilson’s Plover shorebird monitoring team, and an avid birder and gardener.

NATALIE

Hi, I’m Natalie! As a dedicated pet sitter and dog walker with The Savvy Sitter, I love building relationships with the pets I care for and always strive to provide the best service possible. I share my home with my two cats, Athena and Sherlock, and my beloved dog, Josie. Being a proud mom of two, I know how important it is to have someone you trust with your furry family members. I enjoy dog walks not just for the companionship, but also as a great way to get extra exercise and strength training. I’m always eager to learn and grow in this field so I can continue giving pets the love and attention they deserve.
