Dog Walking Lakes by the Bay

About: I have been around animals all my life. I grew up in a home where animals are treated like family. You have to show them TLC. I currently have five dogs and five cats at home. The majority of them are rescues. I have rescued many animals and foster them until i find a home for them. I am great with any animal and know how to take care of them in any certain situation. I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate quality time to the pets in my care. Whether it's a walk, a drop-in visit, or an overnight stay, I make sure each pet receives plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while maintaining their normal routine. I care for every pet as if they were my own. I follow each pet's normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and any special instructions from the owner. My goal is to help pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while keeping their environment clean and reducing stress during their owner's absence.

“Caesy has been a blessing in our life. Her attention and care with our two dogs is exceptional. We have a reactive dog who immediately fell in love with Caesy. She is kind, communicative, always on time and very professional. We highly recommend!”

About: I have owned dogs my whole life. My dog now gets walked 1-2 miles almost everyday. I also walk 4 miles about 5 times a week on my own for exercise, so I’m willing to walk short or long distances for your dogs. I have watched my neighbors’ and family members’ dogs multiple times, meaning I have experience with walking up to 4 dogs at a time! I’ve been a stay at home mom for the last 10 years, but I’m a recent empty nester looking to help others with their busy lives. I’m flexible throughout the week to walk dogs and can’t wait to get to know them! I know I am trustworthy with your dogs because my dog is well-cared for with a spacious backyard, daily walks, regular grooming, clean/filled water bowls, is always well-fed, and gets treats with tricks!

About: I grew up with both cats and dogs and since I started my own family have owned my own animals for the last 15 years. I have also done some short term fostering for the pet shelters when they have been busy over holiday periods. I currently have a Belgian mallinois dog aged almost 2, and 3 cats aged between 1 and 15, one of which came to Miami with us when we moved from England. I can’t wait to also meet and care for your furry friends. I have a part time office job but can be flexible and work from home when needed some days so have plenty of time to drop in and see your animals throughout the day while my children are at school. My 14 year old twins also love animals and May want to come with me sometimes. I can exercise your dog as much as you need me to! I love looking after animals and have a passion for fitness as I’ve so far completed 29 marathons.

“Stephanie was so friendly and helpful. She took her time with Beanie and was patient. I would definitely recommend her to anyone and book her again.”

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and truly love spending time with them. I currently have a playful 1-year-old Schnauzer at home. Over the years, friends and family have trusted me to care for their pets, and it’s something I genuinely enjoy. I have experience with special diets and can follow basic medical instructions with care. I always take the time to connect with each dog based on their unique personality. Looking forward to meeting your furry friend! I’m currently not working a traditional job, so I have all the time in the world to care for and play with your pet! I’m available 7 days a week and would love to spend quality time with your furry friend. I also have a fenced yard and my sweet Schnauzer can keep your pup company—if you’re comfortable with that. Your pet’s safety is my top priority

About: When needed, we foster animals through a rescue centre. Me and my family love animals and we genuinely care about their safety and wellbeing. We will treat your loved one as one of our own! I am currently working part time and my husband works from home 2-3 days a week. Our children are home from school early afternoon Mon-Fri and so we are home a lot and are able to proactively care for pets. We have a fenced yard and no other animals in the home. We have a play pen for smaller animals and a spare bedroom for pets such as small kittens who might get scared easily or puppies/dogs to have some quiet time from children’s noise (if needed).

About: In high school my community service was dog sitting homeless dogs. Then over summer break I’d train pets. I love it so much I’ll honestly do it for free. I’m currently working part time from home so I could pet sit full time. I’ve been dog sitting for a friend and decided that I would like to work full time. It brings me so much joy. Easy job for me. Usually, I would prefer to see the parent with their pet to understand the pet’s behavior. I enjoy one on one time with the pet.. whether they enjoy tummy rubs or playing w their toys. I would like to understand them.

“Stephanie you will be my regular here at Rover.”

About: As a lifelong lover of animals, I have years of experience in caring for and owning animals. I adore dogs and cats of any breed and size. I currently own a small Maltese dog who is friendly with other dogs. You can trust that I will care for your fur baby as if they were my own! I am a part-time college student, which means I have plenty of time to provide walks, playtime, and one on one time with your pet. I have a fenced yard with plenty of space for your pet to play. Animals are allowed on the couch, bed and are allowed to roam freely throughout my home. I like to give walks around the neighborhood and spend time with my pet on a daily basis.

“I can’t recommend Yesenia enough! She is incredibly professional and her communication is top-notch. From the moment she started taking care of my dog, it was clear that she genuinely cared. With our first meet and greet, she took the time to understand my rescue dog’s fears and anxieties around new people, and her approach was simply amazing. Not only did she flawlessly do her job, but she also built a bond with my dog which is not common being that he’s very scared of everyone. I was impressed by how great she was with him. Thank you for providing such exceptional care!!”

About: I have experience with young and older pets, such as newborns kittens, puppies, and older cats and dogs. I also have experience with reptiles too. I am currently in veterinarian school, so my schedule for pet care is limited but I am always open to trying to work around the client’s schedule. I cannot have free roaming animals in my current apartments but I am free to house sit/pet sit your animals in your home. I am a clean and methodical person, so I always leave the home I am watching for clean and I always make sure the animal I am watching over is taken care of and comfortable to the best of my ability.

About: I’ve always had a natural connection with animals, especially dogs. I grew up with a pup of my own, so I know how much they mean to you—and how important it is to find someone who truly cares. I’m super patient, gentle, and laid-back, which helps dogs feel comfortable and at ease around me, whether we’re on a walk, cuddling at home, or just hanging out. I also love going on walks and outdoor adventures, and I adjust to your dog’s pace—whether they’re energetic or just want to take it slow. I’m happy caring for all ages, from playful puppies to sweet seniors who need a little extra love and care Im currently working a part time job but am pretty flexible , so I’m able to give your pet the attention, love, and care they need without feeling rushed. Whether it’s a quick drop-in or longer visits, I always make time to show up fully for your pets When caring for pets in my clients’ home, I always aim to keep their routine as familiar and comfortable as possible. I follow any specific instructions you leave—whether it’s feeding times, walk schedules, medication, or favorite toys—and I pay close attention to your pet’s behavior and mood so they feel safe and loved. I make sure the space stays clean, water bowls are full, and your pet gets plenty of attention, playtime, and cuddles (if they’re into that!). Respecting your home and your pet’s space is a top priority for me
