Dog Walking Historic Ybor

About: I’ve always been a huge animal lover and have experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages and personalities, including puppies, senior dogs, anxious pets, dogs that need medication, and dogs with seizure disorders. I also have a dog child that is a mini Goldendoodle, Clover, so I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pet. I’ll treat your pets like my own and make sure they get lots of love, attention, and care while you’re away. I work from home while going to school full time, so I have a pretty flexible schedule that lets me give pets lots of attention throughout the day. Whether it’s potty breaks, walks, playtime, medication, or just keeping them company, I’m happy to stick to their routine. I truly enjoy caring for animals, and my goal is to make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I believe pets do best when they can stick to their normal routine. Whether I’m caring for them in my home or yours, I’ll follow your instructions closely, from feeding and walks to medications, crate time, playtime, and any other preferences you have to help them feel comfortable and at home.

“Addison is the best! So sweet and caring for my dog. Shes attentive, prompt, on time, and communicative. Would highly recommend Addison for your pet care needs :)”

“An absolute God-send! I live about 3 hours away and was coming to town for an event. Summer met me at Ulta to take my dog while I got my hair and make up done. Because I went to the wrong Ulta, i was late and she was so accommodating (I communicated for her, so do the same!). She even helped me keep my appointment there while she waited for my dog and I. My dog came back tail wagging and so happy she got to play ALL the fetch!!! Couldn’t recommend her more.”

About: Coming from a family that loves animals, I’ve always been around and taken care of pets. My experience has been walking/petsitting for family and friends, mostly dogs but occasionally cats. I have experience with dogs of all shapes and sizes, and I have a very flexible work schedule. I am currently a student in flight school, which only requires short daily in-person commitment, so I am very flexible with timing. Most of my studying is done online so I am able to care for your pet at any time it is convenient for you. I am unable to provide care in my own apartment due to its size, but I am very clean and respectful of clients homes when visiting for care. I am a great communicator and will respond quickly as well as follow any requests or instructions you make.

“Did great work especially in a pinch! Thanks so much!”

About: What sets me apart is the level of care and attention I give every pet as if they were my own. I’ve been caring for friends’ and family members’ dogs for the past few years, so I’m comfortable with a variety of personalities, sizes, and energy levels. I understand that every dog has their own routine, and I do my best to keep them comfortable by following their normal schedule for walks, feeding, playtime, and rest. Whether your pup loves long walks, playing fetch, or simply relaxing with company, I’m happy to adapt to their needs. Pet care fits seamlessly into my routine because I currently have a flexible schedule and plenty of availability throughout the day. This allows me to provide consistent care, whether that’s morning, afternoon, or evening walks, drop-in visits, or overnight stays. I enjoy staying active, so daily walks and playtime are something I genuinely look forward to. I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine to help them feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I believe pets are happiest when they can stick to their normal routine, so I take the time to learn each pet’s schedule and preferences. In a client’s home, I’ll follow your instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, medications (if needed), and any other routines that help your pet feel comfortable.

About: I treat every pet like family and take the time to learn their unique personality, routine, and needs. I’m dependable, patient, and love keeping owners updated with photos and messages so they always know their pet is happy, safe, and well cared for. Pet care is something I truly enjoy and naturally make time for every day. Since I have a flexible schedule, I can give pets the attention, love, and consistency they deserve. I love going on walks, playing, cuddling, and making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and happy while their family is away. I know how much pets mean to their owners, so I treat every animal with the same patience, affection, and care that I would want for my own. My goal is for both pets and their owners to feel completely at ease, knowing they’re in loving and dependable hands. I care for every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their family is away. I always follow each owner’s routine for feeding, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and any special instructions because I know consistency helps pets feel secure. I’m very active and love being outdoors. I walk my own dog every day, usually around the Riverwalk and Bayshore, and we average about 4 miles a day. Because of that, I’m happy caring for dogs that enjoy long walks, exercise, and plenty of playtime, while also understanding that some pets simply want companionship, cuddles, and a calm environment. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I make sure they receive lots of attention, affection, exercise, and regular updates so their owners can have peace of mind knowing their pet is happy and well cared for.

“Parker was so wonderful and really helped out in a pinch. She came through when our other walker fell through and ended up being so much better. She is sweet and thoughtful and so responsible with our boy. Will definitely seek her services again and would highly recommend her for any kind of pet care you need.”

About: Started dog-walking/-sitting in my pre-teens. Owned 3 dogs during this time (two part-Lab and one Great Dane. All rescues). Kept a small, growing business which consisted of walking or being paid to stay a week with a dog. This continued until early 20s. Have since continued to sit family's, friends', and family friends' dogs over the years. No matter the size or breed I always manage to find a friend in new dogs. Epileptic, old, and those requiring medicine are not a problem. Whether or not they adhere to commands isn't a problem. I've had very obedient dogs and known many that ran the house. Either way, we'll get along fine. I'm only out of the house for 6 hours at most. My old lady used to need a lot of attention, so I'm used to life revolving around a dog upon entry, before leaving, and taking a break every 30 minutes to give some love. Private back lawn. I have a designated spot in a public walkway for food and water but can move as needs depict. Doors to back rooms are shut when not being used. Nothing heavy or sharp that can fall or come in contact with your pet. I had a 17.5 year old so the house was made as safe as possible for her.

“Jordan always does am amazing job with Daisy. She's so kind and flexible, and Daisy loves seeing her. I also love all the pictures from the walk 😊 Thank you Jordan!”

About: Hello, potential new friend, I have extensive experience caring for dogs of different ages, sizes, temperaments, and training levels. I regularly puppy-sit guide dogs in training and have been educated on the specific standards and routines they must follow. This experience has strengthened my understanding of positive reinforcement, consistency, patience, and responsible pet care. Dogs and pups will always have close supervision, which is why I only like to pup sit two dogs at a time for an intimate sitting experience. I know all the nearby dog-friendly places to go. At night, I love cuddling up with pets. Our neighborhood is very pet friendly. I am ready and prepared to host your puppy. I even have a puppy first aid kit in our house, and our vet is less than a 5 min drive away, just in case. As you can see dogs are my passion and I will care for your pooch with love and kindness. Choose Sully & I Pet Care* for the trusted love and care that you know your dog deserves. *Sully from “Sully & I” has crossed the rainbow bridge I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to make pet care a consistent part of my daily routine. I am available throughout the week for walks, drop-in visits, house sitting, and plenty of one-on-one attention. Because my schedule is flexible, I can closely follow each pet’s normal feeding, exercise, playtime, medication, and rest routine. I also have availability for daytime, evening, weekend, and some last-minute requests. My home is currently pet-free, so visiting dogs and cats can enjoy a calm environment without having to adjust to resident animals. Pets are welcome on the sofa and are encouraged to relax and make themselves comfortable. I provide close supervision, keep doors and entryways secure, and carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, walks, playtime, medication, sleeping arrangements, and household rules. I also prefer to care for a limited number of pets at a time so each one receives plenty of individual attention.

Your dog will be welcomed into a safe, comfortable, and positive environment where they’ll never feel alone. I have a friendly lab mix named Cash, who loves keeping other dogs company and naturally adapts to their energy.

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5/5 – Serena Is Wonderful! Serena has been amazing with our Lab, Rebel, and we couldn’t be happier with her! She’s incredibly patient, kind, and attentive, and Rebel absolutely loves his time with her. You can tell she genuinely cares about the dogs she works with and brings such a calm, positive energy. One thing we appreciate most is how dependable she is — Serena is always willing to step in and help whenever we need extra support, which has been such a lifesaver for us. Her communication and reliability are top-notch, and we always feel confident knowing Rebel is in great hands. We would absolutely recommend Serena to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring dog walker — we’ll definitely keep using her!”

Friday-Sunday are my easiest days to work. Willing to take care of any pups any day! I have plenty of neighbors and I am surrounded by a few dog parks! I plan to smother each dog with love and comfort in their stays with me.

I am looking to make some extra money on the side doing something I love! I have experience watching dogs of all sizes and ages, and have years of experience pet sitting my family dogs, as well as dogs on rover, and dog sitting for friends. My apartment is in a walkable area and surrounds plenty of dog parks! I truly do love dogs and I promise to ensure your pet is treated like one of my own and to make them as comfortable as possible during their stay. I like to keep my dogs back home active by taking them on walks and playing with them around the house! I look forward to meeting all your beautiful pups!

About: I’ve grown up with dogs/cats and have taken care of my neighbors or friends dogs for weeks at a time. I have extensive experience caring for dogs/cats, ranging from energetic pets to sweet senior pets. I’m good at managing them and attentive at reading their body language. I have been a passionate animal lover for over 16 years. I know how important it is to find someone you trust with your fur babies. I treat every pet in my care with the same love, patience, and attention I would give my own. I also volunteer at the humane society to be able to walk dogs. I work remote Mondays, Fridays, and sometimes Wednesdays, so your pet gets constant attention and frequent potty breaks. The days I don't work remote, Tuesdays, Thursdays, and sometimes Wednesdays, I am available in the evenings. You can reach out to me last minute and I can do my best to be available. I am available on the weekends unless noted on my calendar. When outside, your pet will always be securely leashed. I do not do off-leash walks or visit public dog parks unless explicitly requested and approved by you. My home is completely pet-proofed, with no exposed hazards and always keep doors secure. If you like your dogs crated at night I can do that as well. I also have one roommates who can also keep watch them if I ever have to run errands. I have a sweet resident cat who is very used to other animals. However, for total safety and comfort, I have plenty of space and can easily keep my cat in a completely separate room during your pet's stay. You will receive daily text and photo updates so you know exactly how your pet is doing, eating, and playing!

“Everything was great! I’ll book again :-) thank you!”
