Dog Walking Myakka City

About: I’ve taken care of and had dogs my whole life. I’m the first person my friends and family go to when they need dog care. I’ve been a sitter for many people for many years. Animals have been my passion for many years. I work in the evenings so I have the free time to look after your precious pups. I am willing to travel as far as you need to make sure you have no worries while you’re gone. I live on 5 acres of fenced in yard to have plenty of space for your fur babies. I also have two sweet pups if your puppy wants friends. I have the ability to crate your babies if you prefer that aswell.

“Susan was wonderfully patient with our very fearful dog. She worked to gain his trust and now he is happy to see her and go for a walk with her. Very glad we found Susan!”

About: I have been working with pets since 2023! I have done everything from walking dogs at the Humane Society to pet sitting to working at my current job which is a Pet boarding facility! I love animals and am so excited to get to know your pets! I work part time at a dog boarding facility so I’m available most weekends and most weekdays to walk dogs and do drop ins! I have experience walking dogs of all shapes and sizes! I love all breeds as well as all cats! Pets are my passion and I’d love to meet your pets!

About: I have a 11 year old Aussiedoodle who is full of energy, character, and bouncy. We both like to stay active whether that is going for a run or long walk, attend local events, explore new areas, play with toys, continuous enrichment and training. I would like to offer my time to care for dogs when their owners are away on vacation or just need someone to check in on their fur baby. When you leave your fur baby with me he or she will be in the best care and treated as if they were my own. I work remote Monday to Friday with a flexible schedule that I can rearrange or drop in your home between meetings while caring for your dog. I will text you upon arrival and text you upon departure as I am strictly in your home for your dog’s needs, play time, feeding, and walking. I will send you pictures throughout the day and/or when I drop in.

About: Animals aren’t just pets to me. They are individuals with emotions, personalities, and needs that deserve to be understood and respected. I do not just watch them, I connect with them! I genuinely care for them and treat them like they matter, because they do. You can feel completely at ease knowing their happiness, comfort, and safety are always my top priority. As an animal rights advocate, I approach every animal with genuine compassion and awareness, tailoring my care to who they are, not just what they need on paper. Whether they are energetic, shy, playful, or sensitive, I meet them where they are and give them the attention and love that helps them feel truly safe and seen. You can trust me to show up consistently, follow routines closely, and create a calm, caring environment while you are away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I structure my schedule to allow consistent time for walks, feeding, check-ins, and companionship. I generally maintain a flexible routine, which allows me to adjust based on each pet’s needs and the specific care plan we agree on. I’m intentional about not overbooking so I can stay attentive and responsive while pets are in my care. My availability can vary slightly week to week, but I prioritize clear communication and planning in advance to ensure expectations are aligned and your pet’s routine is supported as closely as possible. I aim to create a calm, safe, and comfortable environment based on each pet’s routine and personality. Whether I’m in your home or mine, I follow your instructions closely while staying attentive to how your pet is feeling. In your home, I keep things consistent with their normal schedule so they feel secure. In my home, I maintain a clean, low-stress space with close supervision and attention to safety and care. I stay mindful during walks and interactions and avoid anything that could feel overwhelming or risky. I also provide regular updates with photos and check in if anything seems off so we can decide what’s best together. **I do not have pets of my own, but my roommates have pets in the other part of the home. They are well-managed, and I take care to ensure safe, controlled interactions. I can also keep pets fully separated at all times if preferred, using multi-barrier safety measures.

About: I've grown up with a large variety of pets my entire life, ranging from dogs (big, medium and small), cats, fish, beared dragons, chinchillas, and hamsters. Therefore I am very comfortable when it comes to handling varying types of pets and their personalities. Currently a full time college student and also looking for a part time job, but all my classes are online so my availability is pretty flexible. I walk 2 of my dogs daily as well as play with them in my backyard for at least 15 minutes a day since they are younger and need the enrichment. I also feed all my pets daily and provide them with clean water and litter boxes for those who use it.

About: I will treat your babies just like mine. I will take them to dog parks, on my boat, or adventures if you'd like and if theyre adventurous. I have lifejackets for all sizes. Also, I'm amazing with senior dogs if they just want to relax at home. Currently, my dog is 13 years old that I've had since she were puppy. The most important would be away from your pups are 4.5 hours. I own and run a boat tour business in the area. Most of my trips are 4 hours max. Whatever your rules are at your home is what I do. When I take them out on adventures I always keep them on leash unless it is gated. Even if they have recall, I don't chance that.

About: I have cared for animals my entire life and will care for yours as if they are my own. I also have experience with senior and special needs pets and medication administration I'm semi- retired and have extra time to do something I love and care for your pets while you are away, take your dogs for walks, or stop by to feed and play with your kitties I will take care of your pets in your home and follow your instructions as to walks, feeding schedule and anything else I can do to provide love for your pets and peace of mind to you Will send you photos while you are away so you can see what fun we are having!

About: I've been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. Growing up in the country, I had the opportunity to care for a wide variety of animals, from beloved family pets to more unique companions. My experience includes dogs, cats, guinea pigs, birds, chickens, turkeys, ducks, a degu (yes, they're real!), a tortoise, snakes, and lizards. Today, I share my home with our rescued Lab/Pit Bull mix, whom we've loved since she was just a few months old. We recently said goodbye to our senior dog after a courageous battle with cancer, which only deepened my appreciation for the special bond we share with our pets. I truly love animals of all kinds (with the exception of spiders and cockroaches!). Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers quiet companionship, I'll care for them with the same love, patience, and attention I'd want for my own. With my husband serving in law enforcement, safety, trust, and integrity are values we live by every day. You can feel confident knowing I'll treat not only your pets with exceptional care, but your home with the utmost respect, responsibility, and security while you're away. I'm a wife and mom of two teenage boys, and I work as both a paralegal and a real estate agent. Because I work primarily from home and have the flexibility to set my own schedule, I'm able to provide attentive, personalized care for your pets. Whether your furry family member needs a walk, playtime, companionship, or simply someone to keep them company while you're away, I can easily accommodate their routine and give them the time and attention they deserve. I understand that every pet is unique, and I'll treat yours with the same love, patience, and care that I give my own. While I'm not currently able to host pets in my own home, I'm happy to care for them in the comfort and familiarity of theirs. I understand how important it is to keep your pet's routine as consistent as possible while you're away. I'll carefully follow all of your instructions—from feeding schedules and medications to walks, playtime, and bedtime routines—to ensure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for. My goal is to provide loving, dependable care that gives you complete peace of mind, knowing your pet is happy and your home is being treated with the utmost respect while you're away.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and other animals for as long as I could remember whether it’s bathing them, walking them, or even just being there next to them I currently work part time at night time so I’m available every day until about 4 and Monday’s and Wednesday’s I am available all day I provide a safe, clean, and loving environment for every pet. I follow their normal routines, including feeding, walks, playtime, and medications. I treat each pet like my own, keep owners updated, and make sure they feel comfortable and cared for while they’re with me.

About: I have taken care of a dog and cat my whole life and currently I only have 1 cat who is my baby, Falafel. She is 6 months old. I have my degree in marketing and work from home so I can tend to your babies and I am flexible. I work from home so I have a lot of spare time throughout the day. I have my own car and live by a park that I take your babies to. I am pretty flexible when it comes to hours as I do not have any human children or a partner. I would love to spoil your pups! I have tons of grass and areas to go walking in my area and I know exactly what to do to keep your dogs happy and entertained! I have treats here as well.

About: What sets me apart is that I genuinely treat every pet like they’re my own. I understand that every animal has a unique personality and routine, so I take the time to make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. I’m patient with puppies who are still learning and can help reinforce basic training, potty routines, and good manners. I’m also attentive to senior pets who may need extra care, slower walks, medication, or simply a little more patience and comfort. My goal is to provide reliable, personalized care so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and well cared for. im currently a working part time mom who is pregnant with a 3 year old as well but my 3 yr old is in school so im available during the day after 1 and at night time i have a fenced yard! but with my 3 year old id prefer if i was able to have your babies in my home to make things easier

About: I have experience in taking care of the smallest of critters to large beasts. I grew up on multiple acres and had the chance to take care of cats, dogs, horses, chickens, everything and anything. I am a kind soul who will do anything I can for any furry guests. I have watched dogs and cats all over the states. I watch them in my home and also don't mind being mobile if needed. I am currently working from home. I am able to take care of animals needs throughout the day or night. I am able to engage all hours of the day. I am on an .50 acre. I have a very large front yard. That includes some grass and some shell. I am a street away from the celery fields.` I am open to having animals in my house and traveling to others if needed.

“Alana was fantastic. Punctual and very caring. Highly recommend!”

About: I walk dogs, cat sit, and house sit around my neighborhood and it’s my favorite part of my week. I have fostered around 150+ animals! I once fostered a momma dog and helped her birth her babies and nurse them to health! I couldn’t imagine myself doing anything else! I currently work part time as a dance teacher but when I am not teaching I am either dog sitting or house sitting, if there is a family in need of a sitter I can make it work! I easily can follow direction on security of the home and the dogs. The animals are my number one priority and focus when I’m on the job.

About: Hello! My family has had pets (cats and dogs) my entire life. I currently have two cats of my own- Nova and Arrow. I am very responsible and know how important pets are in one's life- they are family too! I enjoy running and would love to take your dog on a run with me! I can also play fetch for hours. I have experience dog-sitting for many of my friends when they are out of town, as I am almost always here during the holidays (my family lives out of state). I'm unable to have a dog of my own right now, so I would love to spend some time with yours! Whatever special needs your pet requires, just let me know I will happily oblige! I can be available on short notice and am around most weekends and holidays! I'm also hoping to meet new people through this that share a similar passion for animals :)
