Dog Walkers in Homosassa Springs, FL

About: I have a special place in my heart for animals! So NO mistreating or NO neglect, is tolerated! Not everyone can be there to walk or feed their pets (due to everyday tasks), and my goal is to make sure your 4 legged family member is safe and sound while youre gone!! Growing up ive had everything from Hounds to Pits an Jack Russell's! So big or small wont turn me away. Exercise, nutrition, and saftey are my priority! So regular walks and a close watch will assure your pet comes back to you with a 4 paw rating! On call 24/7 and always ready to make sure your pets are treated to your highest standards! (Walking, boarding, feeding, play dates, bathing.) I own an homemade dog food and delivery service so I’m always up for the pups! No matter how picky they may be! Caring for animals is my passion! I have been a sitter for 6 years now and still have clients that call me first. All about trust :) When taking care of any animal I always treat them with respect and that goes for a client's home as well. If something needs attention, or if plants need watering? I'm on it!

I have a fenced in shaded yard perfect for small sunbathing and rolling around in the grass. Great for doing zoomies and playing ball lots of fun!!

“Jennifer is great. She came for a Meet & Greet and spent time getting to know Colt. For his first walk, Colt was confused at first when I didn’t go with him. Once he realized it was just the two of them he was fine and went down the driveway wagging his tail. Jennifer took pictures and told me all about their walk. I have booked Jennifer for weekly walks and look forward to our vacation next month.”

“My fur child Ben loved Cheryl! She walked a 100 lb lap dog weekday mornings for two weeks, and he was very happy. Cheryl was prompt, reliable, affectionate and attentive to our boy. I will check her availability again in June when I will need a couple more days. Thank you Cheryl!”

About: I have been around pets of all kinds since I was 4 years old. I’ve taken care of kittens, adult cats, puppies, adult dogs of all breeds, pigs, chickens, rabbits, turtles, fish, and even crabs! 😂 My neighbors have always relied on me to watch their various types of pets while they are away. This is what led me here! I have moved and am looking for some new opportunities! I work almost 40 hours a week at my part-time job. I could have two days a week completely open. Most days I don’t go in until the afternoon and I am never off later than 9:30. I also typically have hour lunch breaks. If you decide I’m the right match for you, just know that while my schedule may be unpredictable, I always get my schedule a week and a half to two weeks ahead of time. My puppy honestly lives in the house as if she owns the place! She is absolutely the biggest sweetheart and veryyyy spoiled! I love to love on dogs, give them treats for tricks, getting physical exercise in and out of the house, and especially snuggling! (When I know the dog and the owners are okay with that of course). However, I also have no problem sticking to their everyday schedule (if they have one). I can feed, walk, and crate your pet as scheduled. Honestly I’m just such an animal lover, nothing involving the care of animals bothers me. I believe it is our duty to return the unconditional love and support our pets provide us with!

About: I have been around my family's pets since birth-dogs of all sizes and cats-but my journey with caring for them began when I was 14. I helped birth, raise, and train three litters of great dane puppies over the course of a few years and have loved and advocated for them ever since. I still petsit the dogs in my family household in their senior years. I understand that all animals have unique body language and I strive to pay great attention to this. As a house and petsitter, I will always adhere to your personal advice, if you have it: how to interpret your dogs' unique behavior, how to engage with their personality, and how to make them the most comfortable. I also trust my intuition and will always prioritize their safety. I look forward to being a great friend and caregiver to your furbabies! I am a student; From January to March I attend physical classes two days a week and I will be available on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fri/Sat/Sun. I cannot care for pets in my own home, however, I will travel up to an hour to care for them in your home. I have a driver's license and vehicle. I will provide the play and exercise per your pet's individual needs, feed them and keep water fresh, administer medication if needed per your instructions, and drive them to their favorite park or vet appointments.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a child. My friends and family have trusted me with their furry best friends for over 10 years. I’m great with puppies and can teach them commands quickly! I can’t wait to meet your fur baby!! I’m currently a stay at home wife, and I’m pregnant with my first baby. I have open availability to keep your fur baby happy and healthy while you’re away or do drop in visits in your home if you prefer! I have 2.5 Acres of fenced in land with 1 fur baby of my own to keep yours company. He is excellent with other dogs, and loves to play. I can keep yours in a crate if that’s what you prefer, or he/she can sleep anywhere in my home. I’m able to take your fur baby out for potty breaks as often as necessary and we will get a ton of play time together if he/she wishes. I also love a good lazy day, so your lazy mutt is welcome as well! If you and your pet prefer the comfort of your own home, I can do drop in visits for feeds, walks, play time, you name it!

About: I grew up on a small farm, so I have experience with all kinds of animals. I started off by raising and taking care of rabbits and ducks when I was 4 years old. We also had a horse, a pony, a donkey, dogs, cats, chickens, goats, birds (parakeet, conure, dove, and pigeons), hamsters, gerbils, guinea pigs, fish, ferrets, a squirrel and geese. I am self-employed as a graphic/web designer, so my schedule is extremely flexible and I can work from anywhere so I can be available last minute if needed. I am unable to board pets in my home due to having 3 dogs here but I can come to your home and provide whatever service is needed. I have both small and large dogs with different attitudes so I am cautious when taking them on walks to make sure they stay safe and secure. I also crate trained my dogs so I know what to do if that is required. When I take the dogs out to potty, I make sure that they do both to ensure there will be no messes in the home. I also keep an eye out for the Bufo toads that are poisonous.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since the day I was born. I’ve grown up around hunting dogs and cared for a dog with severe health issues including epilepsy. I’ve never met a dog that doesn’t like me. I’m home full time, able to provide pet care whenever. I’m currently searching for a job so this may change in the future, but for now I am an open book. My dogs ran our household, one of my dogs was missing a leg and still needed to play frisbee and run every day. I like to stay active with my dogs and my clients’ as well!
