Dog Walkers in Morriston, FL

About: *I have been taking care of pets not only on a personal level for over 20 years but on a professional level as well for 10 years. I have prior experience as a veterinary technician assistant and can handle pets no matter what the situation may be. I have prior experience with senior pets or even pets with special needs. I of course have experience with pets that are full of energy and love to play. And we can't forget about the puppies who need help with socializing and potty training. I can also give baths, ear cleaning and nail trims as well just let me know. *All animals are unique in their own special way, they have things they like and things they do not like, while in my care I can promise that their care will be fitted to your fur babies needs while you are away. *I am always available to give your fur baby all the love and attention they need while you are away. I am available for drop ins, daycare, boarding just let me know the dates and times that you are needing and we can get it arranged. *I live in a house on a secluded 1.32 acres of land along with a large fenced yard. I have 2 small children as well but trust me I have experience with spicy animals as well as making sure safety is a priority. I have 5 friendly dogs that would love to have play dates or I can easily crate or separate my own personal pets or your pets (with your permission) if needed. If crating is not an option my house is set up to where I can keep my personal pets and your pets separated from each other without the need of crates. I also have plenty of toys and even a doggy pool to help keep your fur babies happy while you are away. I offer the option of pickup/drop offs being done but only by meeting outside, I do not want the fur babies to feel like I am taking them away from their owner. Thank you for your understanding and support in this matter! I am currently a stay at home mom. I have two beautiful children along with 5 very spoiled dogs that I consider my own children as well. I have a fenced yard and crates if you are okay with crating. I also have baby gates as well. If dogs need to have separation time that is understandable or if they need to be separated 100% of the time I can have that set up with no issues. Everyone's safety is 100% important no matter what.

About: I grew up in a family that adored animals. As far back as I can remember, we’ve always had at least two dogs in our lives.I’ve had the privilege of caring for puppies, taking care of our older dogs by giving them their medicine on time, and remaining patient and understanding with them. I’m currently not working, so I get up with my animals, my dog and cat. I feed the cat and bring my dog outside for a bit, then bring her inside and get her some food. After that, my dog and cat come into my room to hang out with me while I paint or sketch something. I also have the absolute privilege of having my parents look after my babies, so I have the ability to focus all my energy on your babies and making sure I give them the best care possible. Whatever your pet could need, I can do! If they have a certain routine, I will follow it. If they just need a human to keep them company and care for them, I can do that too, no problem.

“We would like to start by saying that she is really a ROCKSTAR here on Rover APP. We found Sonia almost by the last minute and we are so happy that we found her. On the meet and greet we were already really impressed with the good energy that she brings, and our dogs loved her at the first sight. SPOIL ALERT: She works on Animal Clinic and has rescued a few dogs to her own, but she can tell you more about it. Sonia showed up on time, gave our dogs all the attention they needed, sent us a lot of pictures, and give us the report we needed to feel comfortable while we were not there. And also our dogs smelled SO GOOD when we got back home, we are still trying to figure out what happened here for our dogs to smell so good. LOL We are really glad that we found Sonia and we wish to keep her as our dog sitter for as long she be will be willing to.”

“Courtney is absolutely wonderful and a true animal lover! She has such a friendly personality and is excellent with communication. Her updates are detailed and thoughtful, with plenty of great photos from her walks with my dog, Clifford. During our meet and greet, she was attentive, respectful of my rules, and very open to learning how to handle a prong collar properly. I highly recommend booking Courtney for any pet care services — she’s reliable, caring, and genuinely loves what she does!”

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.

About: Throughout my life, I have always gotten along better with animals. I love taking care of them and making them happy, I believe they deserve the best. And as someone with experience with both cats and dogs, I also understand how important routine is to their lives. I’m currently working part-time and have pretty open availability! I am easily able to prioritize your fur friends and attend to anything they might need! I give the pets their space but make sure to always be nearby and with them for anything they might need from me! I would never want to overstep any of the pup or kitty’s boundaries

“Great person and service”

About: Thank you for clicking on me, welcome! 🫶 My name is Suchitel but everyone calls me Suchi 😊 I have taken care of/owned dogs for over 9 years. Ranging from taking care of puppies right out of the womb to adult dogs. I have experience with handling up to 5 dogs at a time and being able to recognize a dog’s social cues. I can adapt to any type of dog.. if they are very active, I’ll run alongside them. If they are a couch potato, I’ll happily become one with them 🤗 I am currently a stay at home mom to my toddler and my 4 dogs! My day revolves around caretaking so I guarantee your pet will be in a home surrounded by the most love, attention and care while you’re away! We have 7+ acres of fenced land for your dog to run around and play, although no dog in my care (including my own) stay outside without my supervision. Our dogs frequently go outside for pee/play breaks. My dogs will have minimal interaction (unless you don’t mind a play date 😊) with your pets as mine are in a separate area of the house. A lot of my time and attention during the day, every day, is caring for my pets! I’ll put in the same amount of care and attention to yours, as if they are my own, receiving lots of love, cuddles, and of course, play time!

About: Hi I'm Gabby! Animals have been part of my life for a long as I can remember. I grew up a horse girl and while living in China finally got my own dog, Taco, who I ended up bringing back here to the states with me. Currently, my family is Taco and my two foster fail cats, Khinkali and Aeon. Before moving to Florida, I ran my own pet sitting business in Cincinnati and fell into the niche of working with animals who had behavioral issues- from cats who had severe fear of strangers to dogs who had to be specifically handled due to their aggression. Routine is so important to the well being of our pets and the ability to get out and live our lives is so important to the well being of ours. My goal is to make life easier for you and your pet and make finding a pet sitter the least stressful part of pet ownership. As a bonus I am also a professional photographer and love to send a few portraits along with my updates! I currently create my own schedule around pet sitting jobs so my availability is open and flexible! I am happy to work with you to make sure we come up with a schedule that is best for your pet. As I offer services in other people’s homes I want them to feel comfortable having me there! I am fine with any security measures such as cameras and like to discuss how often clients want updates for peace of mind.

About: I had a Schnauzer for 14 years. I’ve taken care of multiple dogs for about 4 years now. I love to share with animals of all kinds and give them my love and dedication. I work as a yoga instructor so I only teach for about 1-2 hours a day. So I have plenty of time to spend with your pet. If your interested in full time house sitting care let me know and we can discuss different pricing. I’d like to know how your pet is taken care of and have detailed instructions on any specific necessities your pet may need. I’ll follow the instructions as specified.

“Great communication and sent pictures. It was bad weather and she handled my sr dog appropriately. Was in great communication with me on both walks. I will definitely use her again when I’m in JAX. Thank you Christi!”

“My pups were in good hands and Montana was nice enough to do a meet and greet in advance. We will definitely book again.”

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.
