Dog Walkers in Brooker, FL

About: I go by He/him and It/its! I've been looking after dogs as soon as I turned 8. I have experience with high-energy animals, as I take care of two at the moment. I have experience administering medication, bathing, walking and tending to the needs of those with skin issues. I am fully available any day of the week, including the weekend, starting 10 AM. However, I am not open on Thursdays until after 5 PM. I do not take requests for boarding at the moment due to the unpredictable nature of my own animals. Though I am open to walking, visits and overnight stays.

About: I have owned cats and dogs all of my life. My last dog was 18 and 1/2 yrs old when I lost her. She was my best friend and I still miss her 9 yrs later. Animals give us unconditional love and they deserve the same in return. They communicate with us if we keep our minds open to it. I am semi retired, I work independently from home and have a lot of free time. I am looking for some fur babies to take care of so their guardians can feel comfortable leaving them. I will treat all dogs and cats like my own and I take their care very serious. If that means sending daily videos or pictures to their guardians to put them at ease, I am happy to do just that. My cats are on a timed feeding schedule of prescription cat food and 3 weekly feeding of fresh wet cat food with no by products, just protein, rice and broth. I check their weight weekly and they receive vet visits quarterly like clock work. I take their health as seriously as I take my own. I find no ask unreasonable and will check in with pet parents as often as requested.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats for the last 18 years, since I was six years old! I understand that pets are members of the family, and I will treat your pets with care and compassion! I can walk, run, play or do whatever is necessary to make your pets happy! I work from home with flexibility, so I am available at most hours of the day to walk. In the evenings, I am free whenever for home stays. I can care for pets in my clients homes. There is a potential they can stay in my home for short stays as well, which is in a peaceful, residential neighborhood.

About: Hello! My name is Lauryn and I’ve always grown up with pets. I’ve grown up with both cats and dogs and have experience in grooming them and taking care of them. I’ll be working M-TH 0700-1700. I’d be more than happy to stop by before and after work if I needed to, plus F-SU I’m free! I’m currently not working and do online school! I have a lot of free time! I would prefer weekdays, but I don’t mind weekend sitting. I have experience waking dogs that range from Chihuahuas to English Mastiffs. I would prefer an environment that is closed off; however I do have experience walking dogs in an open area. When caring for animals I have a lot of knowledge. I helped my retriever/beagle mix give birth to her puppies, and I have helped her many times with storm anxiety and ptsd.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs ever since I was born and I take care of my moms, grandmas, and best friends dogs while they’re away! I’m currently working part time but I’m mostly available after 12pm. I’m in nursing school so Mondays I won’t be available until after 2 as I’m at the hospital but weekends are fully open! I cannot care for your pets at my house unfortunately at the moment. But at your house I would love to go on long walks with your dogs if you have them or hang out with any cats and of course feed and play with the animals!

“Paige has been walking my two dogs and I am so grateful! She is punctual, communicative, compassionate and loving. I always know that, when my dogs are with her they are safe and having a great time walking. I highly recommend her to all Rover People!”

“This is Richard’s second time watching our dog and he is absolutely amazing! He keeps us updated , sends us pictures and also sends a summary of his visit to let us know how Brentley did throughout his time with him. Richard is absolutely amazing and would definitely recommend him to anyone that is seeking a dog sitter for their time away!”

About: I love animals, I had so many cats and dogs. I am always there for them you won’t regret it I promise, it will be like they are home. I am doing online studies so it fits perfectly, everyday. I am free on my weekdays and also my weekends. And watch Netflix so this is perfect. Whatever is asked, will be served. I am always punctual, I listen what the owner wants and provide exactly that. It will be worth it.

About: My name is Lacey! I’ve been working with animals since I was 11, beginning with special needs cats. I grew up with many pets, but this was when I first realized what I could do to work for animals to better their lives. When I was 15, I worked more with exotic birds and lemurs at an animal sanctuary here in Florida. I’ve since graduated from the Santa Fe Zoo program and have experience with animal management, enrichment, and training. More recently, I just finished working at an elephant sanctuary in Thailand, where I was studying animal behavior and working with the local community to educate tourists. I have a passion for working with animals of all shapes, sizes, and breeds and would love to make sure your babies are cared for so you can work worry free! I’ve recently come back from working abroad at an elephant sanctuary where I studied animal behavior. Since graduating from the Santa Fe zoo program, I’ve begun taking online classes to work toward another animal care related degree, so I have plenty of time to care for your babies! I am there to follow whatever instruction you leave! Trust between me as the caretaker and your pet is important, but so is the trust between me and you. I trust you will always know and want what’s best for your pet, and following a routine is so important to reduce their stress and yours. I am there to ensure you can work worry free knowing your pet is in good hands and will be enriched and well cared for with me.

About: Hello 👋 all! I'm Elie. I've taken care of and raised several dogs in my lifetime. I currently own 4 dogs a shi tzu, Catahoula Cur, a chocolate lab and our newest edition Pit bull terrier. All are softies. They are all crate trained and spaded/neutered. I have a huge backyard.

I work Full-time so I am available most Mornings for pick-up, drop-off and meet n greets. I am available most weekends as well. I want to advise that even if I am not home there is always someone available to help. Just let me know and I can arrange something. I have a fenced in back yard and have 5 dogs currently in my care. I have crates of all sizes and toys. I only request that food or snacks be provided and any special bedding or toy your babies can't live without.

About: Hey there, my name is Brianna but most people call me Booey. I own a home in the Springtree neighborhood in NW Gainesville. I live here with my husband and a pack of three pups: Koda, a 15 yr old miniature dachshund, Harper, a 4 yr old plott hound mix, and Lupe, a 1 yr old “Florida brown dog” until we get her embark results back! We enjoy long walks throughout the neighborhood and spending time outside in the yard (open in front/fenced in back). Koda is getting a bit confused with her age, she normally finds her preferred dog bed for a nap. Harper loves just about everything, especially food and playing in the backyard. Lupe is high energy and anxious with strangers, but she LOVES dogs and makes fast friends. They will be an excellent companions for your pup while you are away. This home is full of plenty of windows and natural light for your dog to enjoy. I take pup care very seriously and can assure you that they would be treated as if they were part of my own pack! I send at least 3 photo updates per day (morning, afternoon, and night) happy to send more/less on request. My husband and I are full-time PhD students. We often work from home unless we have an appointment on campus. This also means we are quite the night owls so never hesitate to reach out, no matter the time. We love all animals, but pups especially! We typically like to introduce new dogs to ours either in the front yard or in the back yard so that it is not too overwhelming for your pup. We have three dogs that are accustomed to being around lots of different dogs. Harper and Lupe especially love playing “host” and playing/cuddling as much as is accepted by your pup. We do not like to leave the dogs unattended so either myself or my husband will be home during the pup visit. If absolutely necessary that we both be out, we will separate the dogs for just-in-case safety reasons.

About: I have been a pet care provider my whole life and am excited to meet your furry friend! I am always happy to watch others pets and make sure they are well feed and well walked! I can make anything work. Just let me know your schedule and I will make it work, I am very flexible and would be happy to adjust to anything you may need. I give my pets two meals a day and I re-fill their water fountain twice daily. I also make sure their beds are always freshly cleaned and they get lots of cuddles!

About: I care very much for the well being of animals and want to make sure that the pets waiting for their owners feel safe with me. After work is usually when I will be able to, my work schedule is pretty random so I would work with the pet owners depending on how long they need me for. My backyard is nice and big enough to run around, but not secure enough for me to leave the pet alone back there. My front yard is nice too but needs the front gate fixed.

About: I’ve grown up with pets all my life, ranging from house pets to farm animals. I’ve helped care for friends and family’s pets while they are away- feeding, bathing, walking, and playing with pets. I’m currently working on getting back into school so my schedule is open for pet care. I am available week days and weekends- open to your pet care needs. I am able to do drop in visits, all day care, or walking during the day. I’m willing to do visits and care until 8 PM on week days and weekends.

About: We are a dog loving family of 4, and stay very active. We enjoy all dogs, and make them feel like part of our family. Your pup will get lots of love and attention, as well as outside play time and walks around the block. Our family dog, Bruce, enjoys having friends to play with, and we will go above and beyond to make sure your pup is happy and stress free while you are away. We used Rover several times before deciding to host ourselves, and we know that you will be happy leaving your baby with us! We will send lots of pictures, and keep you updated as much as you prefer. Your furry friend will have the time of their life in our home!
