Dog Walkers in McIntosh, FL

About: I’ve been taking care of Dogs since I was 8 different types of dogs. This allowed me to understand different types of dog behavior. It's been a true passion of mine to take care of dogs. I'm currently free as of now. I have time to house sit just about anytime of the week whether it's a weekend or a weekday at any time scheduled. I have a fenced-in yard that sits around 2 acres which allows bigger or smaller dogs to be able to get their Exercise or space needed to play.

“Always on time. Kimberly treats my boy as her own and always lets me know how he is and makes sure to give him lots of love. She is great! I definitely trust her with my fur baby.”

“Madison's wonderful! She's a sweetheart with our dog, and super patient when our dog is slow to trust strangers coming in to walk her. Thank you!!”

About: I love Rover! I mean, what better job exists than to get paid to spend time with other people's animals? My name is Dan, and I have been around animals my whole life. Currently I am a cat dad of two girls, but I am also comfortable and familiar with dogs, rabbits, and other animals as well. I currently live in a large three bedroom. The property is out in the country, but only a few miles away from Gainesville, so it's far enough to be away from the sounds and stress of the city without really being in the middle of nowhere. It's not the fanciest place, in need of remodeling, but it is calm, comfortable, and pet friendly. There is no smoking inside. The property is not fenced, so I will be keeping everyone inside, except for supervised walks, etc. I am able to board cats, most dogs, and other animals as well. I work from home in addition to doing this, so when I do have a furry guest, I am home twenty four hours a day. I like to actually spend time with the animals I have visiting, so if you have a super playful dog- or one that just likes to hang out on the couch next to someone- I'd probably be a good match. If I am not boarding anyone at the moment, I can walk dogs, feed cats, etc, as well, as long as you are not too far away from where I live. Things I require: 1. I need to meet your animals first (especially for dogs). 2. If I don't feel comfortable , or I feel like an animal is not comfortable with me, I will not confirm the booking. Animals are just like people, we all have those we like and don't like, so don't take it personal if I decline a booking. 3. I do need emergency contact and vet information. I hope I never have to deal with any emergency, but it is better to be prepared and ready, than to be running around scrambling if something does happen. 4. Of course, I need as much food, etc, as is needed for the stay. Things I offer: 1. Lots of attention. Of course, some animals- especially some cats- aren't really keen on it, and that's okay! But if they are, I love to play with my guests! 2. I don't mix animals from different families. 3. I don't charge extra for extra cats, and I only charge a little bit extra for extra dogs. I have been doing this off and on for some time now, and while I don't have as many clients as I want to have, my reviews are good and solid for a reason. I have my own two cats who take up all my time when I'm not out taking care of other people's animals, or otherwise working. The only time I'm usually not available is if I have already made prior commitments. I treat animals like they are children, because to me, they are. My own two are my favorite people in this world, but I love animals in general. I especially enjoy cats, friendly dogs, and giant rabbits. 😃 I like to treat each cat, dog, rabbit, etc, as the unique personality they are. Some cats, for example, are a little more standoffish than others. The best thing to do with them is to not push them. Nobody cat or human likes someone standing in front of them demanding attention ! Some dogs, for example, are very laid back and really just want to lay next to you and snuggle. Others are always ready to play! I am knowledgeable about safety, and when I am doing a drop in visit, I always keep an eye out for anything that doesn't look right. When I am dog walking, I like to go places that are less traveled, I keep my attention fully on them, and on everything going on around us. When I am with your animals, they are my first and only priority.

“10/10 WOULD RECOMMEND!! Aniya was absolutely FANTASTIC!! Her customer service is top notch. She left detailed messages with fabulous pictures daily. Although I was far away from my baby girl, I felt that I knew exactly how she was feeling and how her day went thanks to Aniya! I would definitely recommend booking with her and I will do the same next time I’m in the area and need a sitter. ♥️??”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, fish, and even an axolotl. I had a senior dog up until last year, so I am very familiar with caring for older dogs.

I am highly communicative and trustworthy with numerous references. I care for your pets as if they are my own, and prioritize their safety and well-being.

“Bronwyn is amazing! When we did our meet and greet, she was heads over heels over Lucky and we already know she’s going to be a great sitter! She’s also a veterinarian, so that’s a HUGEE PLUS! We can’t wait to keep booking her!!”

About: I have TONS of personal experience with animals and I am great with them! My family has had numerous pets my entire life; I grew up with my step mom being a vet technician and was therefore always exposed to the deep details of pet ownership. Additionally, my family bred American Bullies for several years. From this, I gained lots of experience working with a wide variety of dogs - seniors, puppies, nursing and pregnant mamas, sick or injured dogs, aggressive dogs, etc. I have a complete understanding of boundaries with animals and have a very quick and accurate response to an animals’ mood swing or change in behavior. Additionally, I am capable and confident in administering medications to any pet! I am a Gainesville local and an elementary school teacher! I am available most weekends to come take care of your pets! I am happy to drop in and check on them or take them out for walks I am used to taking care of cats and dogs of any size, breed, or temperament! Additionally I am confident walking dogs of any kind.

About: What sets me apart is the level of personalized care and attention I give to every pet. I don’t just “watch” animals, I take the time to understand their routines, personalities, and needs so they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I have experience caring for both young and senior pets, including helping with basic puppy training like potty routines, leash manners, and positive reinforcement. For senior pets, I’m patient and attentive, providing gentle care, administering medications if needed, and keeping a close eye on their comfort and health. I also prioritize clear communication, sending regular updates and photos so you always know your pet is in good hands. My goal is to give you peace of mind and your pet a stress free, happy experience. Throughout the week, I stay flexible so I can accommodate different routines, whether it’s early morning visits, evening checkins, or multiple visits per day. I also build in time for updates, so pet owners always know how their pet is doing. Since I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, it’s not just a task, it’s something I look forward to, making it easy to give each pet the care and attention they deserve. I provide care based on what makes each pet most comfortable, whether that’s in my home or yours. In a client’s home, I stick closely to your pet’s normal routine feeding, litter box cleaning, playtime, and quiet companionship, so they feel safe in their own space. I’m respectful of your home and keep everything clean and consistent.

About: I've worked on farms growing up, everything from dogs, and cats to chickens, horses and cows. I, myself own a husky, boxer and a cavalier, so I have experience ranging from vastly different breeds and sizes of dogs as well as energy levels. I raised puppies and kittens, as well has fostered and adopted dogs and cats. I've taken care of both senior dogs and cats, as well as more trouble maker types too. I work as an assistant for a DVM and have lots of experience going around my neighborhood taking care of their pets as well, this can be anything from letting them out periodically, walking/playing with dogs, feeding them, and administering medicine. I've pet sat ranging from anywhere between a weekend to a few weeks. I would love to extend my service to others as well, as pets are my passion. I am a part time college student with a lot of free time, so overnight pet care or play time visits 2-3 times a day are not a problem for me. I have myself 3 very friendly dogs, my cavalier spends her night in her crate, an elderly boxer as well as a fun loving husky, about 6, who loves dog parks, dog beaches and most of all, dogs. Everyone is very friendly, spayed/neutered and calm. Our cats are very use to dogs and typically spend most of their time outdoors. They have a large outdoor play area, safely fenced-checked often. Based off preference, they are easily separated and do not need to make contact if desired.
