Dog Walking in DeBary

About: I am well versed on various training, dog sitting, boarding and walking methods for our canine family members. Gained hands on experience of training and handling with my 11 year old GSD. I personally researched for years and only then successfully trained my current 10 month old GSD, using my other 11 year old GSD as a control. I will offer free consults to clients in need of repeat services in order to determine the tailored needs for your dog. Always willing to go above and beyond for my love of dogs. Excel with all dogs and utilize communication with the client in order to fully understand the specific qualities, needs and wants of the dog in order to organize and manage effective walks/boarding/training. I have been living in the area for over 20 years and know all of the dog-friendly parks or areas that provide a clean and safe environment offering an array of enrichment. Knowledgeable in training and recognizing animal body language used to establish positive communication with the dogs. I can not only improve the lives of the dog, but also clearly communicate and empower the owner with training tips to continue effective conditioning for a well-trained dog. My remote position of over 5 years as a Sr Mortgage Underwriter was recently moved into the office (Tampa) and decided to take time off. Therefore, I am available 24/7 and mainly focusing on the transition into the Dog Walking/Boarding/Training business. *HOUSE SITTING SERVICE: Active as a less expensive alternative to booking numerous Drop-In visits with multiple dogs.

About: I love dogs (as well as cats, lizards, and all kinds of animals)! Your best buddy will be well taken care of, pampered and loved while you're gone. I like playing with our quests and like walks with them. I currently have one cat. I have a nice size fenced in yard for quick pee breaks but we will most likely be taking them out for walks around the neighborhood often. I am usually available everyday of the week and are usually home most of the day. At times, with your permission, I would take your best buddy with us to local park walks, pet friendly restaurants, or local festivals. I’m semi retired and can take care of your pet almost anytime. I’m not usually gone from home long, but if I am I usually will take your pet with me I have a large fenced yard, with plenty of chances to run and play. I will be out in the yard wherever they are, so they are away safe in the backyard

“Gisell was amazing with my little Bella. She sent pics and updates and communicated everything. Thank you Gisell for taking care of Bella while I worked.”

“Maricel did such a wonderful job! She took so many pics and was really detailed in her note about the dogs. Will most definitely use her again! Thank you! 😁”

About: Honestly, im not sure what would set me apart besides just knowing that I would do my very best to love and care for your animal/animals in every way possible just like you would. That means the most when pet parents can not be there! I love all animals. My life wouldnt be the same without my pets! I work part time and on my own schedule, which is convenient for pet parents that have to work by time restricted schedules. I can work around the time needed for your pet family! My dogs are leashed because at this time, i rent and my backyard is NOT fenced. Unfortunately I wont be watching animals in my own home. But I am down to pet sit in your home. I have a 17 year old son who watches my animals if im not home.

“Knows how to handle an excited husky. Need I say more?”

“Cydney is the best. My Georgie girl loves her. By the time my two-year-old Lab gets back from her walk with Cydney, she is pretty tired. this is such great exercise that I’m not able to get out and do myself (bad knees). I will be continuing to use Cydney for weekly walks and overnight sitter when needed. I trust her completely Thank you, Cydney !”

Myra P.

“MARIE! is the best. I stand by my last review. I trust Marie with my babies and she is so good with them. I'm using her name (Marie) so much because I messed up her name on my last review (as we've learned bc I cannot mutlitask.)”

About: I have been caring for dogs for over 20 years. Dogs intrigue me, their sweetness and curiosity make me giggle. Depending on your location I walk your fur baby 3-4 times a day. Feed them according to your schedule and spend time playing, snuggling and loving on them. I have wanted officially to start my own petting sitting business in the last year. I currently have 4 repeat customers that have me scheduled when they go on trips. I have references, let me know if your interested in seeing them. I have a full time job that is local so during lunch I walk your loved one. I am married (13 years strong) and have 2 awesome children. Please let me know if you have any questions.

About: I had been in the veterinary field from the time I was 20, knowing from a very young age...when I grew hat working wih companion animals was my calling. I started as a kennel attendant at 20, became a veterinary technician, managed a boarding kennel, teched again and then worked in a pet bakery. Having stepped away from the industry, I am missing the critters... I want to provide your baby with the best possible care in their own home. I will check in with you at each and every visit and even send photos! I will feed, walk, play or just cuddle with your baby when you can't be there I will also be happy to bring in the mail or any extras. Also, will travel further for additional cost. There arent any breed restrictions with me and i don't care if they jump as long as they can't knock me over I am available at just about any time. Just let me know what you and your pet needs from me. 🐾 🐾 🐾 🐾 🐾 🐾 I do not currently do sitting in my home. Since I am renting, it's against the rules. 🫤 I am happy to follow your pets schedule to help keep them stress free.

About: I have grown up around animals, mostly dogs and cats from the age of 6-7 and have never been without a furry family member since, and I am now 28. I wouldn't have had it any other way! Growing up with these angels have only made my love and advocacy grow more and more. I am well equipped for basic care and needs such as, walking, picking up after with no restrictions, playing, following feeding schedules, routines, etc for all ages,(puppies-senior) and looking after furbabies that have also just has surgery. I have also frequently volunteered at the Miami-dade pet adoption & protection center prior to moving to central florida 3 years ago. I am fortunate to make my own schedule, so I will be able to fit your babies care into my flexible daily routine with little to no restriction. I have 2 loving furbabies of my own, Harley (6 going on 7) and Kiedis (1 1/2) and they are both couch potatoes to say the least. Yes, my dogs lounge and sleep on either our couch or bed EVERY day/night :) My next goal is for our next home to have a huge yard! I potty trained both of them (and one of my childhood dogs that Harley grew up with) but Kiedis still has his safe space/crate for when we are out of the house. They watch cartoons when we are gone and I have their nanny-cam in case i need to peek in on them!

About: Hi there! My name is Angie, and I’ve always had a deep love and connection with animals of all kinds. As a dedicated pet caretaker, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry (or feathered!) family members. That’s why I’m here—to provide dependable, compassionate care for your pets when you can’t be there. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, feedings, administering medication, or just keeping your pet company while you’re away, I treat every animal with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. I take the time to get to know each pet’s unique personality and needs, making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you're gone. Because for me, being a pet caretaker isn’t just a job—it’s a calling. Your pet’s well-being is always my top priority, and I’m honored to be a trusted part of their care routine. Pet care fits into my weekly routine as a part-time commitment that I genuinely look forward to. As someone who has always loved animals, I’ve made it a priority to carve out time in my schedule to care for pets in a way that is both consistent and compassionate. Whether it's morning walks, afternoon check-ins, or weekend sitting, I structure my availability to ensure that each pet receives the attention, affection, and care they deserve. Since I’ll be offering pet care on a part-time basis, I’m intentional about balancing my schedule so that I can focus fully on each pet without rushing or overlapping appointments. This allows me to give quality, personalized care to every animal I work with—whether that means sticking to their feeding routine, playing their favorite games, or just being there to offer comfort and companionship. For me, pet care isn’t just an extra job—it’s something I’m passionate about and committed to doing with heart and reliability. When caring for pets in their own homes, I prioritize creating a calm, safe, and familiar environment where they feel secure and well-loved. I believe that trust is at the heart of every great pet care relationship—not just with the animals, but with their humans too. That’s why I always take the time to learn each pet’s routine, preferences, and any special instructions from their owner before beginning services. During house visits, I ensure that your pet’s space remains clean, safe, and comfortable. I follow feeding schedules, administer any necessary medications, clean up after them, and provide plenty of playtime and companionship. I also do a quick check of the home to make sure everything is secure before leaving. For dog walks, I use only secure, well-fitting leashes or harnesses provided by the owner, and I tailor the walk to each dog’s energy level and comfort. I avoid high-traffic or potentially unsafe areas and always monitor the weather to ensure conditions are safe. Whether it's a short potty break or a long walk full of sniffing and exploring, I focus on keeping your dog both happy and safe at all times. My goal is to build a relationship based on reliability, care, and respect—because I know how much your pet means to you.

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life, starting with growing up in a house full of cats and litters to help care for. Over the years I’ve gotten to work with so many different animals—ferrets, bunnies, dogs, puppies, kittens, horses, goats, chickens—you name it. I’ve always been the one my sister called to watch her pets, so taking care of different personalities just became second nature to me. I also train dogs on the side, including big breeds like Cane Corsos, so I’m comfortable with dogs that need structure or a little extra understanding. Honestly, I just have a huge love for animals, and any pet I’m watching gets treated like one of my own. I’m currently not working right now so I have all the free time for your fur babies! I have very open availability. IM always up for snuggles and playtime! When I’m caring for your pets in your home, I treat them like family and follow their routine so they feel safe and comfortable. I give them plenty of love, attention, and reassurance, and I always respect your home and your space while I’m there. My goal is for you to come back to a happy pet and complete peace of mind.

About: I have 13+ years of experience as a vet tech, can handle your energetic 3 month old puppy to cuddle on the couch with your senior feline. I also have many years of experience with large animals. I am more then happy to give medications when needed. Keep your family member on a schedule. With being a vet tech those pets who need the extra care from being a diabetic, cardiac patient or other health problems I'm well educated to take care of them when you are away. My home is a pet home so you would find dogs and cats on the couches and in the bed at any given time. I also offer bathing, nail trims, ear cleaning. I believe our pets are our family members.

“Melissa did a great job with my two dogs. She did everything that was asked. I would definitely book her again.”

About: I always loved animals. I have owned cats and dogs in the past. Right now we have a labrador retriever and a cat, they are very adaptable. I am just starting on pet caring as a business, I truly believe your pet will be happy spending sometime at our place or going for a walk. We recently installed a fence for our dog to run free in our almost half an acre backyard, he loves it... I think other dogs would enjoy that too. We stay at home and homeschool our children. Usually we are at home except for fun outings or emergencies. We do go to church on Sundays. Sunday morning we will be leaving your pet at home alone for about 1 hour and a half. I don't accept pets for Sunday afternoon. I have a fenced backyard, but I never leave your pet in the backyard alone. Your pet will be happy with us when you can't be there.
