Dog Walking In Bay Isle-Siesta

About: I've taken care of dogs for the last eight years, including puppies and energetic dogs. I've got lots of toys, treats, and time to give your best friend :) and honestly I love dogs so much I would do this just for the joy of seeing dogs. I'm free every week day after 2, and all day each weekend. If boarding is needed during weekday mornings, they can be taken out at least every three hours. Otherwise, I can spend as much time with your pup as needed I usually play a lot with the pup, or take it on a walk. I love a good cuddle session, or even just hanging out together on the couch. Personally I feed my dog every morning and evening, and provide plenty of time in our fenced-in backyard to explore and run.

“Wonderful walker who was chill around my energetic Golden and was able to manage his excitement. Carolina took great pics of Captain and really captured who he is on his walks, happy with a stick and running joyful. That let me know he enjoyed his time with Carolina and was comfortable with her — we will be rebooking!”

“Highly recommend her! She communicates and arrives on time. Our dog must have really enjoyed his time with her because he was napping when I got home and was tired. She updated me with great pics of their walk.”

“Jewels was wonderful. She did a meet and greet prior to the actual dog walking appointment. That really impressed me. She also faced numerous challenges with my condo complex and access. But she overcame them with no problems. She also kept me informed about everything with my dog. Cant say enough good about her. I highly recommend Jewel.”

“Nevaeh was great. Extremely reliable and consistent. She helped us for a week for morning and afternoon dog walking/feeding. She has a positive personality and our dog responded very well to her. Highly recommend!”

“Kim is the best. She is always on time, reliable, and my dog loves her. She's been walking my dog daily for three months, and I don't have a single complaint. Thanks again Kim! :-)”

About: "Experienced Dog Lover & Doberman Enthusiast | Providing Expert Care for Your Furry Friend. I have raised two Dobermans on my own. I can tend to your dogs needs weather it just be a walk or to help make sure they have their medicine. I have provided advanced care for Dobermans with DCM, from admin of medicine orally and injectable to monitor heart monitors etc ’m a self-employed consultant who works entirely from home, which means I have genuine flexibility throughout the day. Pet care fits naturally into my routine — walks and visits aren’t a disruption, they’re a welcome break. I’m available most mornings and afternoons and can work around your pet’s existing schedule rather than forcing them into mine. I’m a lifelong dog lover and Doberman owner — I’ve raised two Dobermans of my own, including one who was diagnosed with DCM (dilated cardiomyopathy), a serious cardiac condition. That experience taught me how to manage medication schedules, monitor health signals, and provide calm, attentive care for dogs with complex needs. I treat every dog with patience and respect, whether it’s a routine walk or medication-assisted care.

About: I have always had a dog in my life since I was born but my caretaking journey started when a little corgi entered into my world. She was an escape artist, food fiend, she couldn’t be left for too long and she battled anxiety her whole life, but she brought me the most joy. She taught me attentiveness, and limitless love. She recently crossed the rainbow bridge so I have been missing the presence of my fury friend but am excited to hang out with doggies again!!! Skills include: puppy care, senior care, special needs. This summer I will be in a production at the Asolo Repertory Theatre but before that I am looking to spend as much time with pups as I can. During the school year, I am a grad student and my weekends are usually free. I have class 9-5:30pm tue-fri. Mondays are always free. I appreciate a list of instructions specifically stating your pets schedule and needs. The more detailed the better:) I love to take videos and pictures to keep you updated through the process. I know how important it is to have peace of mind when leaving your baby with a stranger.

About: As a dedicated pet sitter, I bring a personalized approach to every furry friend I care for. I specialize in working with all ages—from playful puppies needing training and structure to senior pets requiring extra patience and attention. With a keen understanding of animal behavior and years of experience, I ensure your pet feels loved, safe, and stress-free. Whether it’s administering medications, reinforcing positive training habits, or providing plenty of playtime and cuddles, I treat your pet as if they were my own! I currently work as a registered nurse so I am available 4 days a week all day long! I am an active person who enjoys walks and spending time outside in my free time. In my home or yours, I create a safe, loving, and stress-free environment tailored to your pet’s unique needs. I stick to their regular routines, including feeding schedules, exercise, and potty breaks, to ensure they feel comfortable and secure. In my home, I provide plenty of space for play, cozy areas for rest, and constant supervision. If I’m caring for your pet in your home, I go above and beyond to maintain a clean and familiar setting while respecting your space. From daily walks to cuddle sessions and updates with photos and messages, your pet will feel loved and cared for every step of the way!

About: Since I was 9 I’ve raised and handled all sorts of pets- dogs, cats, budgies, hermit crabs, you name it! I’ve always had a passion for animals, especially dogs, and throughout my life have researched much about their behavior and how to train them. I’ve owned a number of different dog breeds, each with their particular personalities and needs, such as bullmastiffs, German shepherds, labs, and the dog I currently own, my little old Brussels griffon named Willie. I’ve also taken care of cats from a young age, and understand their unique temperament compared to dogs. Currently, I own two cats, Bisa and Alice. Currently, I am on summer vacation, with only one online engineering class. I’ll be in Sarasota until June 21, but before then I can work any time! Days, nights, weekends, no problem. When I’m in my own home, I am very patient with my own pets, watching their behavior to know what they want and what they don’t want, while also keeping them from getting into trouble or hurting themselves. I would treat other pets with this same patience and understanding if I house-sitted. Additionally, I’ve found that a healthy dose of snuggles, treats, and exercise usually helps animals to feel at ease.

About: I specialize in shy, nervous, and sensitive pets who need a little extra patience and understanding. My calm energy helps animals feel safe and open up at their own pace. Even the ones who “don’t like people” usually end up loving me 🐾 I plan my weekly routine around my pet care commitments to ensure reliability and consistency. I’m organized, punctual, and mindful of each pet’s schedule, whether that’s feeding times, walks, or medication. I take this responsibility seriously and make sure every pet receives dependable, quality care. Your pet’s safety and emotional comfort are my top priorities. I create a calm, secure environment and take the time to understand each pet’s unique personality, especially those who are shy or sensitive. I’m very attentive, gentle, and communicative, so you can feel completely at ease while your pet is in my care.

About: I grew up in a house full of dogs and I learned from an early age, what responsible, attentive animal care truly looks like. My mom is a retired veterinarian, and I worked as a veterinary assistant in her practice throughout my teenage years and into adulthood. Through that experience, I became comfortable and confident with administering oral medications, giving injections, monitoring, recovery, and recognizing signs of illness or discomfort. I understand how important routines, safety, and communication are when caring for someone’s dog. Whether your dog is young and energetic, senior, or requires medication, I am able to provide knowledgeable, attentive care with a calm and compassionate approach. Your dogs, health, comfort and happiness are always my top priorities. I work part time in the mornings, which means most of my afternoons and evenings are free and flexible for pet care. This allows me to provide consistent attention, timely walks, drop ins, feedings, and medications administration as needed. When caring for pets in their home, my priority is maintaining their normal routine in a safe, calm, and low stress environment. A carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding schedules, medication, exercise, and household rules, so your pet experiences as little disruption as possible. With my veterinary assistant background, I’m comfortable monitoring behavior and recognizing early signs of stress or illness. I will always communicate promptly if anything seems unusual and provide regular updates with photos, so you can feel confident and at ease while you are away.

“Review in one word: PERFECT Review in paragraph: When I first reached out to Caroline she set up a visit to meet our girl and get an idea of our expectations as well as our home (impressed - no one else did this). She is available at a moments notice, spends more time than expected, walks, plays fetch, sends numerous pictures (loveee) and last but not least writes the most AMAZING stories about their time together. Currently trying to convince her to write a book....long story short - she's the best dog sitter I've ever had and I won't use anyone else. She goes above and beyond and always makes us more than thrilled that our pup spends time with her.”

About: I have watched pets of friends and family for over eight years now. I will be happy to give company and care for your pets while you are away too! I have two Dobermans of my own who keep me busy walking in the mornings but I have lots of time available to look after other pups too during the day! I hope to accommodate the care and company that your pet needs while you are away :). I am able to do pet visits in your home during the day or over night and I can take pets for walks. I am a very active person and can provide the best care for pets with high or low energy.

About: Been taking care of animals since I was a kid. I’ve had cats and digs growing up my entire life! I love to be active and walk and have free time and would love to be around animals I am Flexible all week and weekend when in town. I do travel often. Want to stay busy when I am in town and love animals! I can do whatever is needed. I have a fenced in yard and crate of my own. I only crate mine now when needed but that is not often as he is older. I only have one of my dogs with me at my home as my other dog is with my mother in my home town.

About: I’ve cared for small to medium-sized dogs in home settings, including overnight stays and multi-day visits. My experience includes feeding, walking, and keeping pets comfortable in their own environment while their owners are away. I’ve also managed multiple dogs at once, so I’m attentive to different personalities and routines. I focus on providing calm, consistent care and making sure each dog feels safe and supported. Pet care fits into my routine outside of my school hours, so I’m able to be present and focused during walks and visits. I plan my time so I’m not rushing and can give each dog proper attention “I’m respectful of your home and your dog’s routine. I follow any instructions you leave and keep things calm and consistent so your dog feels safe while you’re away. I pay attention to their behavior and make sure they’re comfortable and well cared for

About: Aloha, My name is Sierra and I’m a huge animal lover! I have grown up with animals my entire life. I’ve had dogs, cats, birds, lizards…you name it. I’m comfortable with any kind of pet. Being surrounded by animals has really sparked a passion in me and even led me into my career. I used to work full time as a veterinary technician, so you know your fur babies are in good hands with me! I can’t wait to meet your adorable pets! I am currently a stay at home mom with my almost 2 year old daughter so I will have plenty of time to give your fur baby all the love and attention they deserve! I have a fully fenced yard so you never have to worry about them getting loose. I have 3 cats of my own who are all very friendly and do well with other cats and dogs, however accommodations can always be made and my cats can be confined to a certain area of the house.

About: I was an animal rights activist in LA for many years. My love for animals started as a small child; I grew up on a farm and have owned and cared for any kind of animal you can possibly imagine(even pet skunks). I have experience working in animal rescues, veterinary offices, and dog daycares. I started having my own pet sitting business in college called 'Fuzzy Buddies'. I am extremely in tune and sensitive to each individual animal's needs. My downfall is I will completely baby your beloved fur-children. I can do house sitting visits or stay overnight with your babies. I can also administer medications along with meal plans or take to and from the vet. I very much look forward to spending time with your beloved angel-babies!

“Erica was amazing taking care of Winston! She was very communicative, sent lots of pictures and updates, was on time, and really took care of him. I really appreciated being able to leave him all day knowing he would get a good walk with her. I would definitely use her again. Thank you so much!”
