Nita Furbaby Sitter began with a first house-sitting gig on August 3, 2022 in Daytona Beach, Florida. The business has grown through hands-on care, real client relationships and a love for keeping pets comfortable while their people are away.
Now proudly serving Springfield, Illinois.
A growing client history built on comfort, consistency and treating each pet like family.
Sweet Maltese mix who enjoyed outdoor sniff time, cozy naps and peanut-butter enrichment. He settled in well and became a repeat favorite.
The pet-sitting job that started the journey on August 3, 2022 — comfortable, low-stress care in the pet’s own home.
From tiny seniors to big personalities, multi-pet visits and cozy overnight stays — care is tailored to the pet in front of me.
Kind words from pet parents who trusted Nita with their animals and homes.
