Pet Protector, Here to Serve!

Pet care experience

I have taken care of pets for 45 + years. I have the energy to follow thru on the training exercise and clean-up for puppies and the patience and heath care needs for our more senior friends. I am extremely dependable, have my own home, transportation and most importantly an enormous amount of time and love to share on an open schedule.

First walk with Nala went great! Debbie was right on time and took all the precautions to safely walk our 86 lb lab Nala, and Nala was happy too! So happy we found someone we can trust. Thank you Debbie, see you again soon!

We are so happy we found Debbie!!! She is the kind of dog walker that you want. Our dogs have a lot of anxiety with new people and Debbie did everything she could to make our dogs feel comfortable! We will definitely be using her for future walks and visits!

I have a grassed 3/4 fenced yard in a pet friendly neighborhood. I can crate and transport your fur baby to the Fred Howard Park or your choice of dog parks for some fresh air and exercise. I also love to snuggle and play indoors if your pet prefers peace and quiet. I have a valid Florida Driver's license with a "Safe Driver" designation. I have also administered medication to both my pets and friends' pets when needed.

Information Debbie F. would like to know about your pet

Please let me know each and every one of your pets needs so that their experience is everything both of you will deem safe and fun. If your pet has special needs, I am a quick and empathetic student.

A typical day

I love to go for long walks thru the state parks that have both shaded treelined areas and spots for the more adventurous pets to jump into water and cool off. Sometimes our fur babies love to play with special toys, fetching and searching to keep them attentive and fend off boredom.

Availability

I am retired and available for all schedules. Throughout my life I have had usually 2 dogs, fish & a turtle. I moved to Florida 3 years ago and finally moved into my own single-family home with a grassed yard in a wonderful neighborhood so that I can now start looking for my own furry friend. I am healthy and love to walk 2 to 3 miles a day. I have worked with professional trainers when raising my own dogs.
