Dog Walking Gulf City

About: I’ve grown up caring for animals my own, friends, and family Will go above and beyond to satisfy both you and your pet. I have always found the love and nurturing of an animal. If i ever saw an animal hurt I would always try and rescue it. I’m a stay at home mom. I am always home besides when I need my morning coffee from Dunkin. I can always make sure you pet will have the time they need to go to the bathroom. Give your pup the walk he or she may need. I have a fenced in yard. Brand new house that was just built and safe environment. Plenty of kids that will love you play fetch or give belly rubs or hugs.

About: I’ve been a pet owner my entire life and have watched neighbors pets quite often. I want to help pet owners in need of dog care. Dogs tend to flock to me whenever I interact with them and I enjoy taking my own dog on walks in my spare time. I’m currently working from home and have a flexible schedule during the week. I do not work on the weekends and can make myself more available during those days. I have a fenced back yard with gate and I am also located near a huge dog park which is walking distance from my home.

About: Hello! My name is Sasha, I’m a 25 year old zookeeper living with my family in Ruskin. I have experience with all kinds of species including birds, dogs, cats, primates, hoofstock, and reptiles. I’ve loved working in the animal field for the last several years at ranches, shelters, zoos, sanctuaries, and doggie daycares. I have experience giving oral and topical medication, vaccines, and more. My background has given me lots of experience creating various types of enrichment as well. If you need help curbing your animals’ boredom during the summer, I’m your girl! My end goal is to open a sanctuary for wild cats, hyenas, and bears (so if you have big dogs, I will immediately be accepting 😂). I’m excited to love and care for your animals, and I promise your fur babies will be in the best, most loving hands possible! If you’d like to discuss adjusting rates, please just shoot me a message! I try to be as flexible as possible. I work 4 days a week for 10 hours each day and my schedule is relatively predictable, so I can be as flexible as possible! My home will be unavailable as it is my family’s house and I’d rather not intrude on them like that, but caring for animals in their original home helps reduce anxiety for the pets and makes it easier for me to gain their trust anyway so I hope this isn’t an issue!

About: My extensive professional training in animal handling and behavior sets me apart. While many sitters enjoy pets as a hobby, I have dedicated my career to their welfare. I am a National Animal Control Officer (Level II), which provides me with advanced training in safe animal handling for both dogs and cats, as well as emergency response protocols. My Special Skills Include: Certified Behavioral Knowledge: I hold a certification from Jackson Galaxy (since 2016), allowing me to manage anxiety and behavioral issues with a fear-free approach. Senior & Medical Care: Through my non-profit rescue work, I am highly skilled in caring for senior animals, including administering varied medications (injections, fluids, pills) and managing mobility issues. Trust & Reliability: I run a professional organization, so you can expect the highest level of communication, punctuality, and attention to detail. My schedule is entirely flexible because pet care is my professional focus. As the founder of a non-profit rescue, I have the autonomy to adjust my daily workload to ensure I am available for early mornings, critical medication times, and unexpected last-minute needs. Reliability is guaranteed. I care for every pet with the rigor of a professional rescuer and the heart of an advocate. Safety First: My background as a National Animal Control Officer (Level II) influences every decision I make. I am trained in risk assessment, meaning I proactively identify hazards (loose screens, toxic plants, escape routes) before they become problems. I am also fully trained in pet CPR and First Aid. Building Trust: Trust is built through consistency. Running a non-profit organization requires impeccable ethics and reliability. Whether in my home or yours, I adhere to strict feeding and medication schedules. A Low-Stress Environment: Using my Jackson Galaxy certification, I prioritize the pet's emotional well-being. I don't force interaction; instead, I use positive reinforcement and body language cues to build a bond. I am experienced in maintaining a sterile, healthy environment, ensuring that food bowls, litter boxes, and living areas are kept to rescue-grade standards of cleanliness.

About: I bring years of hands-on pet care experience, starting with my own senior dog who’s now 14 and still living his best life. Caring for him has taught me patience, gentle handling, and how to adapt routines for pets of all ages and energy levels. I’ve also spent plenty of time around cats and guinea pigs, giving me a solid understanding of different personalities and needs—from playful or shy kitties to small pets that require calm, careful attention. Whether it’s a walk, a cuddle, or a check-in, I make sure every animal feels safe, respected, and well cared for. Even with a full-time job, caring for pets fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine. I’m already up early for my own senior dog, so morning check-ins or feedings are easy to incorporate. I often use my lunch break for midday visits, giving pets a chance to stretch, potty, play, or simply enjoy some company. After work, I’m available for longer visits, walks, or evening drop-ins. Weekends are even more flexible, allowing me to spend extra time with pets who need longer outings or multiple check-ins. Supporting other people’s pets feels like a natural extension of my day, and I’m committed to making sure every animal gets the care, consistency, and attention they deserve. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I focus on creating a safe, calm, and comfortable environment that matches each pet’s routine. In a client’s home, I follow their preferred schedule for feeding, walking, playtime, and any special instructions to keep things consistent and stress-free. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and comfort level, whether that means giving extra cuddles, keeping things low-key for shy animals, or offering plenty of play for energetic ones. In my own home, pets have designated spaces for rest and play, regular potty breaks, and supervised time to explore. No matter the location, I treat every pet with the same care and patience I give my own, ensuring they feel secure, happy, and well looked after.

I have "grandpup" named Jax who I love and take care of at times. At this time, I am not working full time as a babysitter/nanny, so I am on this site in search of helping out other pet owners who are finding someone to trust with their fur kids. I am known around my neighborhood to be the animal lover. I will listen to your pet care instructions and follow through. Love sending you updates and pictures to keep you posted and guilt free! I am currently unemployed and have a lot of time in my hands at this time. I do not have places to be and if i leave, it's mostly for groceries or something quick. I have a fenced yard that is very spacious. Live in gated neighborhood that also has dog poop bags to keep neighborhood clean and nice.

“New to the area and I am VERY skeptical about strangers watching my dogs. Let me just say how thankful I am to have met Carolina! She has been such a life saver, and she spoils & treats my boy as if he is her own. She is Reliable, great at communicating, sends updates (photos) and overall a very sweet person. I will definitely continue to use her for all of my weekly walks/stays. Thank you for watching my Buddy ?❤️”

“Charmaine was absolutely amazing with Charlie! From the first meet-and-greet, it was clear she has a passion for animals and care. Charmaine communicated clearly, asked specific questions for care, and followed up and kept me updated throughout the walk. I would highly recommend Charmaine and Charlie is looking forward to more walks!”
