Dog Walking in Eastwood Oaks, Sarasota, FL

“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!”

“Evelyn got back to me quickly and came for a meet and greet right away. My baby Cooper had a rough puppyhood and is afraid and reactive.He’s very strong and can pull me down. I am always worried that a new walker might not be able to handle him. Evelyn was confident putting my mind at ease. She is wonderful and sweet to Coop , who loved her immediately. I am so lucky to have found her. Evelyn is kind and calm and I believe she could handle any situation. Cooper and I are so happy.”

About: I have taken care of pets and been around them since I was 5. My family and friends usually rely on me to watch over their pets when they are gone. I am currently in high school and I also play sports. I am free on weekends (Saturday and Sunday). I can most likely make my schedule a little more flexible if needed. I have a fenced in yard and a VERY friendly dog that will he keep your furry buddy company. I am also able to commute very easily.

“Michelle was a great dog walker and helped out when we were in a real pinch to get Maggie walked. She was professional, on time and it was so nice to know Maggie and I could count on her. And Maggie loved Michelle too! Excellent dog walker!!”

About: Animals run my world to say the least. Starting young and bringing everything home as a child. Snakes, turtles, ferrets, stay dogs. Everything became part of the family. As I got older the passion grew even further. Expanding to wolves, tigers, lions and more. Now also having a pack of 4 pups at home and a very spoiled kitty. Along with a few reptiles. Currently working part time having plenty of time to help take care of yours companions. I have a flexible schedule and I’m happy to work around you and your pets needs. Crating available if need for transport. Also along with chew proof leashes originally build for wolves with steal cables for even the most talented escape artist your pet is safe.

“I knew our pup was in the best hands with Annie. She is incredibly kind and reliable. We are lucky to have met her, and I know our boy looks forward to future walks with her.”

“Emma is wonderful! She took great care of our dog while we were out of town. She’s punctual and responsive! While we were gone our dog had a little accident and she cleaned it up for us and made sure there was not a stain left on our new rug! We would definitely recommend Emma and plan to use her services again!”

About: I have owned and cared for dogs my whole life. I also know how important it is to be able to leave my pets with someone who is caring, kind, and safe. Pets are family but sometimes we need to leave them with sitter. I will care for the pups I care for as my own. I have a fenced yard where they can play. Arlington Park a few blocks away for walks. I am recently retired RN. I wake looking forward to care for my two small dogs and am available to open our home to another small dog. I keep my boarding to a single dog or will care for two from same home. I have a complete fenced yard and will be able to crate dog if necessary. Constant care. Never leave them outside by themselves. My dogs are allowed on furniture and sleep with me. The visiting dog will be able to as well if ok with owner.

About: Hello! My name is Brooke. I work full time in health care but have also been working as a part time pet sitter for Rover for over 4 years now. Outside of Rover, I have pet sat for 10+ years and have a lot of experience with pets of all breeds/sizes and pets with specific individualized care and/or medical needs. I also have two kitty fur babies of my own, Potato and Charlotte. I would love the opportunity to care for your pets while you're away or in need of extra help! =) I pride myself on caring for your fur babies the same way that I care for my own. I always provide daily updates with multiple photos (unless you prefer not to receive them) and am quick to respond if you need anything or just want to check in. I am proficient and comfortable administering medications including insulin injections, oral medications, and breathing nebulizer/inhaler treatments for pets. Please message with any pet sitting requests or questions you may have. I am currently also accepting requests for Thanksgiving and Christmas week if you are planning on traveling for the holidays and need a petsitter while away. I am a resident physician completing my medical residency currently. My schedule varies week to week based on which service I am working. Drop in visits and dog walking requests during the week days are limited to early morning and evening times only (no midday visits available). That same availability applies to any weekend days that I am working or if I am off, then I am able to provide up to 3 visits (morning, afternoon, evening). Please reach out with any scheduling requests or questions. I care for all animals the same way that I care for my own, with lots of attention and love =). I also try to keep all animals routines as consistent as I can while you are away so I aim to do feedings, walks, bathroom breaks, etc around the same schedule that they're used to when you're with them.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs, always at least 3 at a time and all sizes and shapes. What else to say… I just love dogs. 😊 I’m working nighttime and ready to take care of your pet every day after 9 am. I can come morning and/or afternoon, once or twice a day. I will come and look around first to make sure it’s clean and I will check the water and the food. Then I will take your pet or a walk and play a bite with his own toys and I’ll have some with me.

“The dogs loved Craig ( although my little Havanese was jealous that only Toli got to go on the walks). That didn’t stop Craig from loving on him though!”

About: I have had dogs my entire life, but recently got my own dog 3 years ago. I have mostly had medium to large dogs, but also have zoo keeping experience. I work as a server, usually my shifts are 4-9. I am available most afternoons, and can go see your fur baby after I get off work. I am willing to follow any instructions you may have about your pet. Whether that be crating or certain dietary restrictions, I am more than happy to help.

“So thankful for Nicole! My dogs had such a great time with her! She was incredibly professional and punctual. She communicated with me very well which gave me a lot of reassurance.”

About: I’ve taken care of my own pets and know that every pet is different! Whether it’s lots of exercise or lazy days, I’ve always been around animals and care deeply for their health and happiness! I have a dog that needs a lot of attention and care at this point in her life, I have had her since I was in about 3rd grade and I always make sure she is the happiest pup. I also take care of my friends dogs on occasion to let them run in the yard and eat their breakfast/ dinner! Make sure they get lots of exercise or whatever their specific needs are like giving them medications / pills or even stopping by to make sure they get their stretches and companion time in!
