Safety, trust & environment

I live in a home with three large dog breeds and two cats who live harmoniously. I have a large crate if needed. I am versed in many types of collars, such a E-collars and prong collars + have experience walking large breeds.

Information Drue J. would like to know about your pet

Growing up with dogs with different personalities/behaviors, I am prepared to handle all situations. I would like to know if the dog is dog/leash aggressive or has any other behavior traits essential for caring for your animal.

A typical day

I love taking hot girl walks with my furry friends around the neighborhood. If my new furry friend enjoys dog parks I know of many very busy parks and some quieter options as well! I love a good game of tug-a-war and lick mat activities.

Pet care experience

Hi, I’m Drue L! I work full-time as a nanny in the Apollo Beach/Ruskin area, and in my free time, I’m passionate about caring for animals. My husband and I have rescued three hound dogs and two cats, so I have extensive hands-on experience with pets of all sizes, temperaments, and personalities. In addition to dogs and cats, I’m also comfortable caring for smaller pets such as guinea pigs, hamsters, and aquatic animals. Whether it’s a daily check-in or an extended vacation, I do my best to ensure your pets feel safe, loved, and well-cared for in your absence. My schedule allows for morning and evening availability, and I always strive to accommodate special requests when possible. I work from 8 AM to 4PM with a one-hour break midday, making me available for local lunchtime check-ins on occasion. I’d love the opportunity to chat about how I can help make you and your pet feel at ease while you’re away!

Drue was terrific! She arrived when scheduled, spoiled our boys with treats and outside time, and sent pictures with her report card for the boys. We will surely be using her services again in the future!

Drue is the best! Our pup loves when he gets to be watched by her. We love the touch base texts and photo updates!

I booked Drue for house sitting with an agreed arrival time of 6pm. She did not arrive until 8pm and only stayed for approximately 8 minutes and left. She returned around 10:45pm and stayed overnight, but left around 7am when agreed end time was 9am. When we came home at 4pm, one dog had multiple accidents (pee and poop) throughout the house, and our other dog—who was crated—had also urinated and defecated in the crate. We had to clean up a significant mess, replace the crate pad, and give our dog a bath outside in freezing temperatures. This did not meet the level of care, supervision, or schedule we agreed to and caused unnecessary stress for our dogs. Unfortunately, we would not book again.

Great experience! Drue took amazing care of Nitro and kept us updated the whole time. Nitro was happy, well cared for, and comfortable. We’d definitely book again and highly recommend them.
