Dog Walking Drew Park

About: I have a cat of my own that is a rehabilitated stray. She’s got a few medical issues, but having her has taught me a lot about anxious/aggressive animal tendencies and the best way to care for them. My friends and family also have a lot of different pets so I’ve been exposed to many different animal personalities/breeds. I have a pet bearded dragon as well! So even reptile care is familiar to me. My schedule changes weekly; I’m currently working a waitress job. My shifts aren’t very long, about 6 hrs - so I will be available sporadically throughout the day and evening, depending on what times I work. I can provide services inside my own home, or care for pets in theirs! Whatever works best. However I do have a pet cat of my own and I’m located in an apartment complex - just a heads up! Just provide any routines/care guidelines they need and I’m good to go.

“Johnny is always 10/10! Gives the dogs extra time!!! Plays with them and makes sure they are taken care of. Always on time and communicates effectively thank you so much for taking care of my Noah!!”

“David did an amazing job! He took excellent care of my dog while we were enjoying our vacation at Busch Gardens. He was punctual, communicated clearly throughout the entire process, and gave me complete peace of mind knowing my dog was in great hands. I would absolutely recommend David to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy pet sitter/walker and I definitely plan to use his services again the next time I’m in the area!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I can remember. Many people I know, don’t fail to notice how caring, gentle, and playful I am with not only pets but with everyone else as-well. I have experienced dogs who are old, anxious, energetic, weak, shy, lovey, and everything in between. Since I was two, I would take care of my childhood dog as if he were my own baby. I’m currently attending college classes and as of right now have extra time to make money and try new things! I am available everyday except Tuesdays or Thursdays! I live in a gated apartment, that has a walking trail within. There is lots of greenery and sometimes other dogs around. I also live 8 minutes away from a dog park where I spend lots of my time walking or running. As far as being in your home, I will abide by the rules and follow what I am being told, in terms for what is best for the dog and everyone else. I will also make the experience fun and your pet will be in great hands.

“Haley is great with our Lab! She is kind, patient, and communicative and London really likes her. She’s a great resource for pet care.”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and caring for animals has always been a huge part of who I am. I have experience caring for puppies, senior dogs, and a variety of breeds including Border Collies, Black Labs, Pit Bulls, German Shepherds, and smaller high-energy dogs. I’ve also fostered dogs, which helped me become patient, attentive, and adaptable to different personalities and needs. I truly bond well with animals and treat every pet like family, giving them lots of love, attention, playtime, and care while their owners are away. My schedule is flexible! I work part-time on my own schedule, attend classes, and an internship, but I’m free Monday/Tuesday/Thursday evenings. Thursday mornings, and all day Fri-Sun. I have plenty of time to dedicate to walks, playtime, companionship, and making sure your pet feels comfortable, cared for, and loved. Your pet’s comfort and safety are my top priorities. I always make sure pets feel secure, loved, and cared for while sticking closely to their routines and needs. I’m very attentive, caring, and communicative, and I love sending photo updates so owners can feel connected and reassured while away. I understand how important pets are because they truly are family, and they deserve the same love, attention, and care even when their owners can’t be with them.

About: Hi! I’m Nikki. I’ve lived with dogs of all sizes my whole life and have been providing pet care for several years. I’m a true dog enthusiast who also studies canine behavior and training—so I don’t just “watch” dogs, I focus on keeping them safe, relaxed, and set up for success while they’re with me. I’m experienced with puppies, adult dogs, and seniors, and I’m comfortable supporting basic manners and routine-based training during a stay (sit, down, leash manners, calm greetings, etc.). I’m also very familiar with crate training and can help keep your dog’s home routine consistent—whether they’re crated at night, have structured rest breaks, or need extra support settling in a new environment. My goal is simple: your dog feels secure, enriched, and cared for—and you feel confident they’re in good hands. Pet care is a consistent part of my weekly routine. I’m home most of the day and plan my schedule around feeding, potty breaks, walks, and supervised outdoor time. I’m able to accommodate most drop-off/pick-up times with a little notice, and I keep dogs on a structured daily routine. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I have a securely fenced front and back yard for safe outdoor time, and dogs are always supervised and brought inside as needed (weather, energy level, or comfort). My home is structured and calm. I can offer private time and separation at any point, and I’m happy to follow your dog’s normal routines and boundaries. Dogs can sleep crated, in a safe room, or in another arrangement you prefer. I also have two stable, friendly medium-sized dogs. If your dog enjoys social time, we can do carefully managed introductions and supervised play. If your dog prefers space—or does best as a solo guest—I can absolutely accommodate that too. I’m attentive to body language, stress signals, and anxiety, and I aim to make your dog’s stay peaceful and predictable.

About: Growing up, I’ve always been and loved being around dogs, whether they were my neighbors, friends, or my own! I have years of experience taking care of pups of all sizes, and i’m a proud chocolate lab/pitbull mix owner! Before graduating college, I used to volunteer at the humane society every month, which is where I adopted my own, Cooper! I am currently working part-time, and available during the week, but can still pup sit on the weekends if necessary! My schedule is very flexible!! I love long dog walks to stay active, and I do have a lab that loves other dogs, but prefer to pup sit at the clients’ houses

“Chris stepped in and really helped me out. He's is excellent with dogs! My Willie really liked him. I highly recommend him. I will use him again when the need arises. Very prompt and professional.”

About: I’m a dependable, caring, and trustworthy pet lover who understands that your pets are family. I’m patient, attentive, and love giving pets plenty of affection, playtime, walks, and companionship. I currently own a cleaning business, so I am available several times throughout the day as they make my own schedule. I will always make time to take care of your dogs and cats. I will always follow your direction in caring for your fur babies. I do always have extra items on me and follow all leash laws and neighborhood guidelines.

About: I have had a cat my whole life, so having grown up with them, I enjoy taking care of them! I also have 3 dogs in my family, a Pomeranian, German Shepherd, and Aussie Doodle, and I periodically take care of all of them. I'm excited to learn about your pet’s individual needs, whether it be spontaneous playtimes, a relaxed brush/petting session, or their favorite foods and treats, I'll be happy to spend time with and get to know your pets. I’d love to walk your dogs as well! Having had pets with different illnesses, I'm familiar with and comfortable giving a cat or dog oral medicine if need be, and I'm used to the messes pets tend to make and am willing to clean up any messes I have pets with unique diets and medical histories, so I'm capable of working around your pet’s personal needs! As a college student who works in retail, pet care will be an as needed activity depending on my schedule for the week. I am willing to work around some schedule conflicts! I will treat your home with kindness and keep it clean for your return. If you have any rules on where certain items belong, please let me know!

“I honestly can’t recommend Samantha enough. She’s been walking my 5 month old Samoyed, Charlie, five days a week for about a month now, and she’s been amazing since day one. Charlie is still a puppy and has tons of energy, but Samantha is always so patient with him and you can tell she genuinely cares about him. She keeps me updated during their walks and always sends the sweetest pictures and videos, which honestly make my day while I’m at work. She’s been incredibly reliable, communicates clearly and gives me so much peace of mind knowing Charlie is with someone I fully trust. The best part is how excited he gets whenever he sees her. He always comes back happy and tired, and it’s made such a big difference in our routine. I’m really grateful we found someone who cares about what they do and our fur babies.”

“Nena was one happy pup when I came home from my trip! Lucas was very accommodating, easy to work with, had great communication throughout my trip. Every picture I got from him showed Nena smiling ear to ear! 😁”

About: I've had my own dog for 11 years now, before that I grew up with a family chocolate lab. I've always had dogs in my life and my sister is a vet so I've experienced a lot and learned a lot. I would never let a dog get hurt! I treat dogs like humans :) I know what to do in many different situations because I've had experience with dogs my entire life, big and small. My boyfriend and I have watched a dog overnight for 2 weeks before. Our dog, Piper is nice and relaxed and gets along well with others. She loves having a friend around like she did when I was in college living with my roommate who had a Maltese. Day to day: I wake up at 7, walk my dog, then feed her. We hang out, I might go run some errands and puppy proof the apartment before I leave. I'll come back and let her out again. At night I let her out once after I feed her at 7, so about 8:30, then once more before I go to bed. I play with my dog a lot and she likes to snuggle. I would do all these things for your dog and anything else you request! My schedule is flexible, so I can fit walks into your dog’s routine with ease. I’m based in South Tampa and happy to travel up to 45 minutes. I keep my bookings consistent and reliable, and I’ll always show up on time and ready to give your pup a great walk. Since I offer dog walking, I come to you and care for your dog in their own familiar environment. I follow your instructions on leashing, routes, and routine exactly. Safety is my top priority: I keep your dog leashed, avoid hazards, stay alert to their body language, and never put them in a situation that feels off. My sister is a vet, so I know how to spot when something is wrong.

About: I’m a dogs best friend, I like walking and being outside as much as they do! I grew up in a dog household and then began caring for dogs in clients homes for over 15 years now. I’ve taken care of 5 dogs, 5 cats and 15 rabbits at one time in one household before! I’ve never trained my own pets but I’ve assisted with training by enforcing the clients training commands and wishes. Im in good shape and can hike or go for extra long walks if you have an active animal. I’ll love and treat your dog as if it were my own. I think dogs are the best listeners and I love to mirror their unconditional love. I have several references to put you in contact with per request. I have a flexible schedule right now and would love to fill my open hours with pet visits and dog walking. I’m often available for last minute bookings. I have a fully fenced in backyard available for your dog to run. I do not have my own crates so a crate would need to be provided if necessary.

About: I’ve grown up around all types of dogs and have over 10 years of experience dog-sitting, walking, and providing in-home care for different breeds, including German Shepherds, Dobermans, Corgis, Labs, Doodles, Pomeranians, and more. I enjoy keeping dogs happy and entertained through walks, playtime, and basic training. Most of all, I give every animal I care for plenty of love, attention, and patience. Pet care fits perfectly into my schedule. I have a flexible lifestyle, and can be available to take care of any and all dogs from 8AM-8PM, or other times if that is what is needed. Before I moved out, I had two corgis that I took sole care of. Now I have taken in a Pomeranian that I care for. Before I got to Florida, I babysat two labs at least one weekend every month. This included feeding, walking, giving medicine, playtime, training and endless hugs and kisses. As well as taking care of the labs, I cared for a German Shepherd for years that I trained, walked, fed, gave medicine and took to vet appointments. I know how and what to do in a lot of different stressful situations with dogs and all different habits and personalities. Most of all, I love all dogs and treat them all as my own.

About: Hi, I’m Geilynn. I bring six years of experience as a Rover sitter, along with a lifetime of caring for both cats and dogs. I grew up with two dogs and adopted my cat, Mila, when she was just six weeks old, giving me firsthand experience with young pets and their unique needs. I’m comfortable caring for kittens, puppies, senior pets, and animals with shy, anxious, or high-energy personalities. I can follow detailed feeding routines, clean litter boxes, administer basic medication, and provide walks, playtime, affection, or quiet companionship based on each pet’s preferences. As a pet parent myself, I understand how important it is to find someone dependable and attentive. I’ll treat your pets like family, respect their routines, and send plenty of photos and updates so you can relax while you’re away. My flexible schedule allows me to accommodate morning, afternoon, and evening visits around your pet’s usual routine. Whether your dog is ready for a fun walk or your cat is happiest enjoying playtime and cuddles at home, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of personalized attention. I can help with feeding, fresh water, litter-box care, medication, and more, and I’ll work with you to create a schedule that keeps your pet comfortable, happy, and excited for our visits. In your home, I’ll follow your pet’s usual routine and care instructions so they feel safe, comfortable, and right at home. Dogs can enjoy walks, playtime, fresh water, meals, medication, and plenty of attention. Cats receive fresh food and water, litter-box care, medication, gentle playtime, and affection on their terms. During every visit, I’ll carefully check doors, windows, water bowls, and favorite hiding spots, then send you photos and updates for peace of mind. I’m also happy to bring in your mail and water your plants while you’re away, so you can return to happy pets and a well-cared-for home.
