Dog Walkers in Fort Hamer, FL

“Patti was wonderful with my pup. He's often skittish around new people as we suspect he was abused before we adopted him but he warmed right up to Patti and was giving her kisses by the end of the visit. Patti was professional, kind, and patient with Nova and I would 100% recommend her to anyone who needs a trustworthy, experienced animal sitter.”

About: I’ve taken care of multiple dogs in my life. Friends and family have relied on me to care for their beloved pets. I grew up with Belgian Malinois, so I have had experience with highly intelligent, strong, energetic, large dogs for my entire life. I’m currently home from college! So I am available to work all day every day! I’m a college athlete so I do need to do my things to get ready for my upcoming season in the fall so please be a little flexible with me if you can BUT I will definitely help you’re dog let out lots of energy and get there daily exercise in running around either outside playing or on walks! In the clients home, I will play and engage with their dog, making sure they’re getting exercise, as well as feeding them, and walking them. I also like to spend time with the dogs to build trust between me and them, making sure they’re feeling safe!

About: I grew up with always having and taking care of 2+ dogs in my house. Since I always had many dogs in the house, I was asked to dog sit frequently, as well. This included over night stays, administering medications and food, potty breaks, and walks! I absolutely adore dogs and their different personalities. I I adopted a Jack Russel Mix that is now about a year old. She is my best friend. I would love to put my love for dogs towards any pups that might need some care while their parents are out and about. I recently just graduated from college and am starting a Master’s program shortly. I am free mornings and afternoons for drop-in visits and walks for your pup. I can easily walk dogs on a in a designated area or let them roam in a fenced backyard. I can crate them/make sure they are safe and secure before I leave.

“Fran has walked my Coco Chanel several times. She's extremely gentle with her as she's 15! Fran is patient as my little old girl walks show and loves to enjoy the sunshine. I will continue to use her.”

About: Hi! I’m a reliable and caring animal lover with a lifetime of experience around pets. I’ve been taking care of animals since I got my dog in middle school and have been taking care of other people’s dogs ever since I could start driving! Also, for the past year I’ve regularly dog sat for a police officer and her retired senior K-9, building trust and consistency with both owner and pup. I understand how important it is to keep pets safe, happy, and comfortable, whether it’s during a walk or while you’re away. I treat every dog like my own and always make sure they get the attention, exercise, and care they deserve. I structure my days around pet care, so I have plenty of availability for visits and check-ins. Along with my experience as a full-time caregiver, I bring patience, reliability, and a strong focus on each pet’s needs. Safety and trust are my top priorities. For drop-ins, I carefully follow your pet’s routine, including feeding, fresh water, litter box cleaning, and playtime, while making sure your home is secure. For house sitting, I maintain your pet’s normal schedule to keep them comfortable and stress-free, and I treat your home with the same respect and care as my own.

“Jill was wonderful with Milly! She was able to drop in last minute and immediately made us feel comfortable our animals in her care. She is trustworthy, communicated well and sent us great picture updates! It gave us a peace of mind knowing Milly was so well taken care of while we were away. I would highly recommend Jill and will definitely be booking with her again in the future!”

About: What sets me apart is my hands-on experience caring for a dog with Addison’s disease and Arthritis. I’m comfortable following medication schedules, monitoring symptoms, and responding to changes in a dog’s health. I understand how important consistency and attention are for dogs with medical needs. I provide patient, attentive care and I treat every dog as if they were my own—ensuring they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m currently in college at SCF while being a senior in high school. My classes are 7-10:50am Mon-Thurs. I also play lacrosse for my high school with practices 7-8:30 pm. I am available before, after and in between school and practice. I love playing with my dog anytime of the day to the point I get in trouble for playing with her😂. I have baby sat for many family members whether it’s house sitting or popping in for a quick walk. I love all dogs and sometimes give them more attention than those around me.

About: Hi! I’m Tyler! I’m a calm, detail oriented, and animal loving person who finds joy in caring for both cats and dogs. As a proud pet parent to two cats, I understand just how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family. I’m the kind of sitter who notices the little things; like when a pup seems a little more tired than usual or when your cat’s whiskers twitch just before they pounce. Whether your pet is shy and needs a gentle presence or full of energy and ready to play, I adjust my care to meet their needs and personality. With years of hands on experience and a true love for animals, I make sure every visit or walk is safe, engaging, and stress free for your pet (and for you!). From belly rubs and fetch to quiet cuddle time and careful medication routines, I’ve got it covered. Let’s set up a meet & greet, I’d love to learn more about your pets and how I can help! I make sure to feed, play with, and care for pets every day, paying close attention to their needs while giving them plenty of love and calm time. When caring for pets, whether in my home or yours, I focus on creating a safe, comfortable environment tailored to each pet’s needs. At your home, I follow your routine closely, including feeding, exercise, playtime, and any special care like medication or grooming. In my home, I provide a calm, loving space where pets feel relaxed and engaged with plenty of attention and affection. My goal is always to keep pets happy, healthy, and stress free while you’re away.

“She was absolutely incredible! I felt so much peace of mind knowing Madalyn was in charge of my baby. She was very communicative and hands on”

About: I’ve trained and cared for my own dogs and cats for many years. I enjoy relating to each dog or cat to meet their needs (which is why I like to meet owners and pets before the engagement to ensure we connect). I also have experience training & caring for dogs & cats at a Lakewood Ranch “No Kill” shelter prior to the pet’s adoption. Walking and sitting dogs and cats allows me to have fun with your pet but allows my family the flexibility to travel in between engagements. I always view time spent with a dog or cat as an opportunity to care and relate to your pet to continue whatever program or behaviors you want to encourage. It’s important to understand a dog or cat’s nature and their natural behaviors of the pet.

“Bethany is great! Reliable. Friendly. And when we met her she knew exactly who needed to like her most and snuggled right up to our dog! Who did love her ❤️🐶🐾 Would recommend 100%. And we will use Bethany again without hesitation!”

“Ellen is great! Super conscience and thoughtful- she comes prepared with her own poop bags, a portable water bowl and bottled water for a break for the pups in this FL heat. Much appreciated. Ellen filled in while our regular walker was unavailable this past week and both my labs loved her and enjoyed their morning walks with her. I will definitely reach out to her again if I need a walker and highly recommend her to anyone.”

About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was 12 years old and have lifelong love for pets of all kinds. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family members. I provide attentive, reliable care including walking, feeding, bathing, and plenty of affection. I treat every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Staying connected is important, so I always send photos updates to keep you reassured and let you see how much fun your pet is having! Pet sitting fits naturally into my daily routine. I plan my schedule around visits to ensure pets are cared for on time, with flexibility for feeding, playtime, and check-ins. I care for pets in my home or clients’ homes by maintaining routines, providing feeding, clean spaces, playtime, and attention, ensuring they feel safe, comfortable, and loved.

About: Loving animals is what I am passionate about because I grew up on a farm surrounded by them. Starting at 15, I volunteered and fostered kittens which taught me patience, responsibility, and how to care for animals with different personalities and needs. I learned to bottle feed and stay up all night making sure my foster kittens were my top priority and had everything they needed. I fell in love and have since adopted two of my own cats who are my world. In high school, I worked at a doggy daycare where I gained hands on experience caring for dogs of all sizes and temperaments. Over the years, I’ve also dog sat for many families and truly enjoy making pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. I have experience in caring for young puppies as well as elderly dogs and administering medication. I am very responsible, reliable, trustworthy, and loving with each and every animal. Each pet, I will care for them like they are my own. I am a little entrepreneur so I do a couple things like thrifting, personal training and dog sitting. I mainly work from home so I have a flexible schedule and I am available for drop in’s or house sitting when needed. When in your home and around your space and fur babies I will take the utmost care. I am very attentive and pay attention to small details and changes with all my animals. I love to be out in nature, go on walks and go to the beach in my free time and I can’t wait to make your fur baby happy! I am a little entrepreneur so I do a couple things including thrifting and personal training. I have a flexible schedule and work from home. I am available when you need me and take last minute bookings as well. I stay dedicated, responsible and reliable. My two cats are my actual babies so I know very well how you feel as a pet owner.

About: I walk dogs, cat sit, and house sit around my neighborhood and it’s my favorite part of my week. I once fostered a momma dog and helped her birth her babies and nurse them to health! I couldn’t imagine myself doing anything else! I currently work part time as a dance teacher but when I am not teaching I am either dog sitting or house sitting, if there is a family in need of a sitter I can make it work! I easily can follow direction on security of the home and the dogs. The animals are my number one priority and focus when I’m on the job.

“Shes been awesome. Comfortable with my dog which is no small thing for a young Belgian. Communicates well and has been a lifesaver as a regular with my firefighter schedule.”
