Dog Walkers in McIntosh, FL

About: I have had and taken care of dogs of all age ranges over the years. I used to foster and take in rescues, so I’m used to all types of doggie personalities, sizes and ages. My dogs are like my children, and I will treat yours with the same love and care as my own. I am experienced with smaller and bigger dogs, and am adaptable to whatever their routine and needs may be! I want you to feel comfortable, knowing your babies are being taken care of while you’re at work or away. I usually work Thursday through Saturday, but sometimes that changes. Even if I have something planned on a day off, it’s something I can usually work around a walk or drop in easily. I live in a home where my fur babies have a fenced in area, as well as a free roam area. Im okay walking your pup or letting them out into a fenced area, whichever you prefer. My pups are crate trained so I am happy to make sure yours is safe and secured in theirs before I leave if that’s something that you use for their safety. Each pet is different, so I will look to your instructions for specifics on how to handle your fur baby and make the visit most enjoyable for them.

“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.”

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.

“Poseidon had a great time and burned a lot of energy walking with her. She mixed it up well between walks and a visit to the dog park, and gave good reports on the walks.”

About: I currently don't have much professional experience with pet sitting, but I do have experience with being around others' pets and taking care of my own. Most of my real experience comes from taking care of my family's Australian Shepherd since I was a kid. We have gone on regular walks, maintained routines, and had plenty of playtime together. I'm currently working part-time and a full-time student. However, I still have plenty of time on my schedule throughout the week. I'll be able for walks or check-ins any time Tuesday-Friday. For boarding, the only set time that I have would be Fridays, but my schedule is always fluctuating and other days could also work. I provide attentive, personalized care based on each pet’s routine and needs. For boarding, I make sure to keep it as safe and comfortable for the pet while following their normal schedule. I also keep in mind the cleanliness of the house to ensure that it's kept as a pet-friendly space. During drop-in visits, I make sure pets are fed, have fresh water, get their neurons active, and look for any possible things I need to clean up. For walks, I focus on keeping your pet safe and engaged. I take into account how your pet reacts with other pets (or how you like to deal with it) and adjust the pace based on how they react to their surroundings. I understand the importance of following instructions carefully, so I can also provide updates to keep you at ease!

About: I have been caring for animals my whole life, including having had cats, dogs, fish, and as a pet. I am familiar with caring for older animals that have lost the ability to fully care for themselves, caring for puppies or kittens, and pets with disabilities (blind, or sick etc.). So I am qualified to care for a pet at any age and just about any level of health! I work my own hours at my job and I have no scheduled weekly activities so I am free to come by and help at almost any day/time! I care for my cat at home by spending time with her playing and cuddling when I am free, letting her curl up with me in bed, and having her sit with me while I cook or do homework! In a client's home I would be interacting with the pets, feeding them, walking them to give them good exercise (for applicable pets), giving them cuddles and love, and providing a safe, clean space for them!

About: I have an extensive background with all types of pets, even owning 15 types of big and small animals growing up myself. I’ve watched numerous breeds of dogs and cats for neighbors, family, and friends and I am dedicated to treating each pet with individuality tailored care. I have a flexible schedule as a part time barista and college student, and the earlier my notice is the more I can do for your furry friends. I make it my priority to check on my own furry friends as much as possible. Health is a top priority, but cuddles are always added if the pet permits them.

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.

In my care, pets are always supervised, and I ensure a clean, secure, and pet-friendly environment.

About: Growing up on a farm I've learned over the years how to properly care for a wide variety of animals. Being raised in a household with dogs and cats my entire life, I'll provide the same love and care you do for your fur babies, ensuring they feel just as comfortable with me when you're away.

I am home for winter break until mid-January with absolutely no plans, so I am available most days and nights for dog walking, house sitting, etc.! 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.
