Dog Walking In Lido Shores

“Highly recommend her! She communicates and arrives on time. Our dog must have really enjoyed his time with her because he was napping when I got home and was tired. She updated me with great pics of their walk.”

About: I have always had a dog in my life since I was born but my caretaking journey started when a little corgi entered into my world. She was an escape artist, food fiend, she couldn’t be left for too long and she battled anxiety her whole life, but she brought me the most joy. She taught me attentiveness, and limitless love. She recently crossed the rainbow bridge so I have been missing the presence of my fury friend but am excited to hang out with doggies again!!! Skills include: puppy care, senior care, special needs. This summer I will be in a production at the Asolo Repertory Theatre but before that I am looking to spend as much time with pups as I can. During the school year, I am a grad student and my weekends are usually free. I have class 9-5:30pm tue-fri. Mondays are always free. I appreciate a list of instructions specifically stating your pets schedule and needs. The more detailed the better:) I love to take videos and pictures to keep you updated through the process. I know how important it is to have peace of mind when leaving your baby with a stranger.

“Connie is the best! Prompt, personable and good with my labs. Couldn’t have asked for anything more.”

About: Since I was 9 I’ve raised and handled all sorts of pets- dogs, cats, budgies, hermit crabs, you name it! I’ve always had a passion for animals, especially dogs, and throughout my life have researched much about their behavior and how to train them. I’ve owned a number of different dog breeds, each with their particular personalities and needs, such as bullmastiffs, German shepherds, labs, and the dog I currently own, my little old Brussels griffon named Willie. I’ve also taken care of cats from a young age, and understand their unique temperament compared to dogs. Currently, I own two cats, Bisa and Alice. Currently, I am on summer vacation, with only one online engineering class. I’ll be in Sarasota until June 21, but before then I can work any time! Days, nights, weekends, no problem. When I’m in my own home, I am very patient with my own pets, watching their behavior to know what they want and what they don’t want, while also keeping them from getting into trouble or hurting themselves. I would treat other pets with this same patience and understanding if I house-sitted. Additionally, I’ve found that a healthy dose of snuggles, treats, and exercise usually helps animals to feel at ease.

“Daelia took such good care of my baby! She was communicative, followed instructions, and sent photos. She even took care of her in the days following her spay surgery. Thank you again!”

About: I’ve been an animal lover my entire life. In high school, I fostered dogs, which gave me hands-on experience with different breeds, temperaments, and energy levels. Since 2017, I’ve also had a dog of my own, so I understand the daily responsibility, structure, and attention pets need to feel safe and happy. I’m comfortable with everything from energetic pups who need stimulation to more laid-back pets who just want companionship and consistency. I treat every animal like they’re my own. Real estate gives me a flexible, self-managed schedule, so I can easily fit pet care into my day. I’m often out and about locally, which makes drop-ins and walks convenient. I can accommodate mornings, midday visits, evenings, and weekends depending on your pet’s needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize keeping their routine as consistent as possible. I follow all feeding, walking, medication, and care instructions closely to make sure your pet feels comfortable and secure in their familiar environment. I provide plenty of attention, playtime, and affection while also respecting your home and keeping everything clean and tidy. I’m happy to send photo and video updates so you can feel confident and connected while you’re away.

“Tenezee is beyond the best! She's flexible my dog loves her and even my neighbors have commented how amazing she is when I'm not home. You can't do better than her!”

About: I have years of personal and volunteer experience caring for both dogs and cats. I raised and cared for two small Schnauzers, and I’ve also looked after about three medium-sized and two large dogs, taking them on walks and making sure they got plenty of exercise and attention. I volunteered at a dog shelter where I helped feed, walk, and care for the dogs regularly. I also cared for the cats at the shelter, ensuring they were clean, fed, and happy. At home, I’ve taken care of my grandmother’s cats—brushing them, feeding them, and spending quality playtime with them. I’m comfortable with pets of all sizes and always treat them with love, patience, and responsibility. My schedule is very flexible, as I run my own business and manage my own time. I spend a lot of time at home, which allows me to give pets the attention, care and companionship they need throughout the day. I’m available for walks, feeding, playtime, and any other specific routines your pet may have Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I create a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment where animals can feel safe and relaxed. I always follow any specific instructions from the owner, including feeding schedules, medications, and routines. I take the time to build trust with each pet, going at their pace and making sure they feel comfortable around me. Whether it’s keeping dangerous items out of reach, supervising outdoor time, or simply providing a quiet, cozy space to rest, I’m committed to creating a safe and loving atmosphere. Communication with pet owners is also key — I always keep them updated and informed.

Former animal rescue volunteer, previous dog-sitting, breed-specific training. Why I love dog sitting I've loved dogs since I was a little girl! When I was growing up, my grandmother and extended family took in rescue pets; so I learned to love and appreciate animals from a young age! I work 9am-5pm, hybrid remote. :) Non-profit HR is my field, but I have quite a bit of free time out of office when I decide to take it. I will reach out for an initial visit/consultation in your home or in a public place so that you can get to know me, ask me questions about myself and my experience, and develop a rapport that you can feel good about. My goal is to put your mind at ease, whatever that looks like for you.

About: I grew up in a house full of dogs and I learned from an early age, what responsible, attentive animal care truly looks like. My mom is a retired veterinarian, and I worked as a veterinary assistant in her practice throughout my teenage years and into adulthood. Through that experience, I became comfortable and confident with administering oral medications, giving injections, monitoring, recovery, and recognizing signs of illness or discomfort. I understand how important routines, safety, and communication are when caring for someone’s dog. Whether your dog is young and energetic, senior, or requires medication, I am able to provide knowledgeable, attentive care with a calm and compassionate approach. Your dogs, health, comfort and happiness are always my top priorities. I work part time in the mornings, which means most of my afternoons and evenings are free and flexible for pet care. This allows me to provide consistent attention, timely walks, drop ins, feedings, and medications administration as needed. When caring for pets in their home, my priority is maintaining their normal routine in a safe, calm, and low stress environment. A carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding schedules, medication, exercise, and household rules, so your pet experiences as little disruption as possible. With my veterinary assistant background, I’m comfortable monitoring behavior and recognizing early signs of stress or illness. I will always communicate promptly if anything seems unusual and provide regular updates with photos, so you can feel confident and at ease while you are away.

About: I’ve taken care of my dogs and cats since I was 15. I am able to walk, feed, bathe, and play with tour loved ones! I have never had any issues with my animals nor my friends animals either! Your animals will always have a fun time getting to play with me and constantly entertained. Due to being in healthcare, my schedule is different every week but I’m usually free at least 4 days a week, but you can find available days on my calender. But, I also work night shift so I am able to have some additional flexibility on shift days, especially in the morning! I live near a dog park and have a large neighborhood for long walks. I currently live in an apartment complex with a dog park and there is plenty of space around the complex to spend time and let energy out. My boyfriend is also home with me every third day due to his rotating paramedic schedule but he has cared for his two family dogs most his life and thoroughly enjoys spending time with animals.

About: I’ve worked professionally and personally with dogs of all sizes. I grew up with 2 large dogs and have cared for chickens, cats, dogs, horses, and more as a pet sitter! I adore animals of all types, and I would love to help out with your furry family members! I work 8 hours Monday-Friday, but I am able to take an hour lunch break on weekdays. My weekends are free, and my schedule is flexible, so I’m happy to figure out what works best for you and your pet! I live in an apartment with no other animals. The apartment is in a gated community and has lots of room to go for walks. There is an unfenced yard outside and plenty of safe sidewalks for walks. I also have a car (and lots of experience driving around my lab, Tucker), so I’m more than happy to take your pets to parks or trails for some outdoor time. I also have experience house sitting. I respect your privacy and clean up after myself and your pets, so you can rest assured you’ll come home to a house in order.

About: I hold such importance for animals in my heart. They are so pure, and so easy to care for and be kind to. Honestly my favorite living things on earth. I’ve owned dogs and cats my entire life, and I find that paying attention and giving them lots of love is all they need to be their happiest. I don’t have a fenced in yard, but I am good with leashes (even bigger dogs) as long as they are provided. I live in a large home with plenty of space for the animals to play and relax in.

About: For starters, I should clarify that I'm only here until the end of February. I've had pets most of my life (dogs, cats, rats, hamsters, gerbils, rabbits), and have had many roommates that had pets. I've had a life-long love of animals of all kinds. Probably because I'm a natural caregiver. I was a Nursing Assistant for over 20 years, and of all the jobs I've had in my life, caring for others, human or not, have been the most rewarding. I feel that helping others helps ME even more than the person or animal for whom I'm caring. Caring for others, ESPECIALLY animals, is so therapeutic for me. My spirits are lifted the second I even SEE an animal, no matter what kind. I hope you'll entrust the health, safety, and happiness of your babies to me! I'm currently not working, so my schedule is very flexible. I have most weekends and holidays free. I also have no children to care for. I am unable to care for animals in my home, as it's not allowed. When caring for animals in your home, I would make sure all phone numbers are written down, including any allergies your pet may have. I would verify that all doors, windows, and fences are secured, as well as cupboards with any harmful chemicals. I would need to know what to do if they experience anxiety when there's thunder and/or other sounds to which they are sensitive. There's no such thing as TOO much information when it comes to your furry family members!
