Dog Walking Lakeshore

About: Hi! My name is Mariana. I’m a college student, and I’ve always loved dogs. Although I didn’t grow up with one, that only made me appreciate them even more. I have experience caring for dogs of different ages, sizes, breeds, and personalities through pet sitting and drop-in visits. I’m comfortable following feeding schedules, administering basic care, going on walks, providing playtime, and making sure pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. I also have experience caring for senior dogs, understanding that they may require extra patience, slower-paced walks, medication reminders, or additional attention to their comfort and routines. In addition, I have experience caring for brachycephalic breeds, such as French Bulldogs, and understand the extra precautions they may need, especially in hot weather and during exercise. My goal is to provide every pet with loving, reliable, and attentive care while giving owners peace of mind. I’m currently taking summer classes and they’re both online so I have a very flexible schedule for any pet care over the summer. I care for pets in my clients home by staying attentive and professional while also providing a level of care and affection. I also have respect for my clients home and their belongings.

About: I’ve been a lifelong animal lover and have experience caring for dogs of all sizes, including Rottweilers, German Shepherds, Pit Bulls, and smaller breeds. I’m comfortable with both energetic dogs and those who prefer a slower, more relaxed pace. Every pet has their own personality, and I take the time to get to know what makes them feel safe and happy. In addition to dogs and cats, I have experience caring for turtles and am happy to look after other small pets, including fish, birds, rabbits, and guinea pigs during drop-in visits. I understand that each pet has unique routines, and I’ll carefully follow your instructions to ensure they receive the same loving care they’re used to at home. As a former elementary school teacher, I’m dependable, patient, observant, and detail-oriented. I’ll treat your pets with kindness and respect, communicate regularly, and send updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to be available for walks and drop-in visits throughout the week. I enjoy building consistent routines with pets and can often accommodate weekday, weekend, and even last-minute requests. My goal is to provide dependable care so you can feel confident your pets are in good hands. I believe pets are happiest when their normal routine is maintained, so I take the time to follow your instructions carefully and provide the same loving care they’re used to receiving. During each visit or walk, I’ll make sure your pet has fresh water, potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and plenty of affection based on their individual personality and needs. I’m attentive to changes in behavior or appetite and will communicate with you right away if I notice anything concerning. I’ll also send updates and photos after each visit so you can feel connected and have peace of mind while you’re away. My goal is for your pet to feel safe, comfortable, and cared for until you return.

About: An FFA (Future Farmers of America) member who helped with our doggy daycare program for a year ranging from medium to small dogs. I also regularly volunteer at Humane Society caring for dogs, cats, guinea pigs, bunnies etc. I have plenty of experience with dogs and cats of all ages! As a full-time college student, I make sure to be able to focus my time on caring for your furbabies! Please contact me so we can schedule around my classes! I highly recommend a meet and greet so the pet(s) gets used to me and I get an idea of their personality. I will also do a quick briefing on any health problems I should know before hand, certain procedures that are common place for your pet to ensure they're comfortable with me and make sure we are on the same page for care.

“Christian was wonderful! Very friendly and patient with our dogs upon meeting them. Was able to help us with last minute walking needs. We will definitely continue to use his services and would absolutely recommend to others 😄”

“Sooo good with my dog and my cat. She always makes sure all 3 of us get attention! 😊 You can't hire a better sitter or walker for your pets.”

Darcee T.

“Camron is the sweetest person that you could ever use to trust your animal in her care! Her professionalism is top notch. If I could rate her more than 5 stars, I would! When I got home from my trip, I could almost see the disappointment in my dogs eyes when he saw that I was home and not his buddy Camron! Grateful to have found her.”

Susan M.

“Desiree has been great for Paco and a relief for Mom. Knowing she's there to take him out for sniffs and exercise has made a new dog of our aging boy.”

“Christine is a great communicator and makes sure I am aware of any adjustments to her schedule. Sasha has begun to know her and trust her; thank you, Christine.”

About: I’ve always been naturally inclined to understanding animals and have been empathetic towards them and people. I love helping and I have been pet sitting for over 4 years. I am very organized, punctual, caring, patient, a good communicator, and hardworking. I am also a diabetic so I am used to all different kinds of medical procedures and treatments! I can’t wait to share the love with all the social fur friends! I am currently working part and am a part time student, so I have a good amount of time to be able to help out and provide care. I also am good at planning and scheduling my time out well. I care for pets in my clients home by following the proper instructions provided, making sure it is a safe clean environment for the animal, communication with the client, and keeping watching on the animal to ensure its safety. I also ensure that everything I used is cleaned before the pet owner returns. Please be advised that I will not accept a job found through rover and would like to take it off. I’m only willing to do that if we have worked through Rover before and want to continue outside of it.

About: I have owned 2 dogs of my own, as well as sitting for many friends and family. My very first job at 10 years old was requested by my neighbors to watch their dogs while they were away. I have experience with all ages, including senior dogs, as my own both required a lot of hands on care in their golden year, including bi-weekly fluids, medications and special diets. I work part-time, sometimes in the morning to late-afternoon or late-afternoon to evening, usually 4 days a week. This schedule is not the same every week but I usually know 2 weeks ahead of time. There is someone home everyday after 5pm and all day Friday-Sunday as well. I have a townhouse with a fenced in yard. No ability to crate at the moment but plenty of space to crate if one can be provided. There are currently no other animals in my house, as my Biscuit cross the rainbow bridge last year. Both people in the home have owned pets, and have experience with care. Someone is home most of the time, minimal hours alone if any. Weekends will have someone home all day. House has step that can easily be blocked off by a gate if needed.

“Payton was great! Very communicative and took wonderful care of Riley.”

“Allison was great! Super friendly and communicative. My plans changed but she was super flexible and understanding and she was great with my hyper puppy. We would definitely have her back!”

About: Hi, I'm Rob. I've taken care of my own four-legged kids for the past 20+ years, and I understand just how much our pets mean to us. I'll treat your fur-baby like my own. I recently started volunteering at the Tampa Bay Humane Society, where I've spent time walking dogs and working the Adoption Desk getting to know shelter dogs and helping them find their forever homes. It's honestly one of my favorite parts of the week. I'm comfortable with dogs of all sizes and would love the chance to help take care of yours. For groups of 3+ dogs, please reach out beforehand so we can chat about logistics. As a new provider on Rover, I'm currently offering introductory pricing to new clients. I currently have a flexible schedule that allows me to prioritize your dog's care and give them the attention they deserve. I know how much our pets love their walks and visits from their favorite humans, and I'll make sure your baby gets all the love, exercise, and joy they need each day. I'm generally available for visits and walks between 6am-3pm daily excluding Sundays. For groups of 3+ dogs, please reach out beforehand so we can chat about logistics. I also believe it's important for you and your dog to feel completely comfortable with me, so I'm happy to offer a complimentary first visit...just let me know, and we'll make sure it's the right fit for everyone. Our dog is our child and the most important person in our lives. He gets three walks a day, including an early morning mile walk before the heat kicks in. He has a fenced in backyard to explore, lounge and chase the squirrels. He is treated like a king at our house, and I wouldn't have it any other way.

“Thank you again for everything.”

About: I’ve been pet sitting over 40 years. With over 19 years experience in the Vet tech field, I began pet sitting for extra income. From cats, birds, rabbits, turtles and numerous dog breeds. I absolutely love pet sitting, fostering relationships and meeting new pups and ppl. I’m relocating to the area and expanding my pet clientele. I’m on your schedule but more importantly I make your pets schedule the utmost priority. I have two beautiful dogs, one senior and the other quite rambunctious. We enjoy long walks, cuddles, bones and barking. Also sunbathing in our grassy fenced in yard on sunny Florida days.

About: I grow up with pets, almost all my life, and I did the same with my kids, have pets since the were young. So now they are grown and gone, so I would like to do something I enjoy. I’m not working at the moment and I would like to work from home and this opportunity it’s just perfect for me being at home and spend time with animals. When I had my last dog, I take her out every hour to make sure she can use the bathroom. I’m moving this month to a house with 2 acres aren’t fence yet, so it’s plenty of space.
