“Wonderful walker who was chill around my energetic Golden and was able to manage his excitement. Carolina took great pics of Captain and really captured who he is on his walks, happy with a stick and running joyful. That let me know he enjoyed his time with Carolina and was comfortable with her — we will be rebooking!”


About: Looking to provide excellent care to your beloved pets. I have had pets all my life, and previously worked in the veterinary field. I currently pet sit for my friends and family. I am currently working a flexible part time job, due to early retirement. Wanting to fill my time proving love for pets in need of care. I love to provide walks, playtime or quality time for pets. I am flexible and able to stay in owners homes to allow the pets to be in a more natural setting.

“Rylee saved me so many times with the last minute requests. She is very patient and affectionate. Arfie now waits for Rylee eagerly and enjoys walking with her. I can’t thank her enough! Thank you, Rylee and see you soon! Happy New Year from all of us!”


“Devon is amazing! She is very good with dogs. She took the time to learn how I walk Scottie so that everyone felt good. I can't believe how quickly she picked up how to do the training exercises with him! Scottie loves her and we are lucky to have such a great dog walker/pet sitter!”


“Brandon and Katie are the ultimate professionals! We have used them many times for the past year and have been extremely happy. We think Zoey loves them more than she loves us.”

About: Professional, kind, mature woman to assist you with dog walks and home visits as needed. I am reliable and experienced. I have many years as a volunteer with animal shelters and in my younger years assisted at a dog groomer’s, as well as at a vet’s office. I have two dogs of my own and many dogs who call me their friend. I work part time in a local cat shelter providing care, food and meds, as well as lots of love. I also have two cats and the occasional foster. I have lived and worked in Venice for over 20 years. I’m eager to help you out and meet your animals. I am human cpr and first aid trained. Animals love me and I assure you that yours will too. You can relax knowing that your loved ones are in good hands when they are in my care. I currently work locally with a very flexible schedule so I am always able to arrange things to meet your needs, even sometimes at the last minute. I follow all of your instructions to the letter but am able to improvise if needed. Your animals will be well loved and well taken care of in your home.

About: Hi! I’m Ashlee — I recently moved to Venice, Florida and while I normally work as a hairstylist, I have time off this month and would love to spend it caring for your pups. I’m a proud dog mom to a golden retriever who is 4 (Beau) and a lab who is 9 (Addie), so I understand how much trust it takes to leave your dog in someone else’s hands. My yellow lab is in the Carolinas right now with my family until August! I’ll treat your dog like my own — with patience, love, and attention to their needs and quirks. I live in a pet-friendly apartment near walking paths and I’m home during the day, so your dog will never be alone for long. I’m happy to send picture updates, keep you posted, and make sure your dog is safe and loved. Whether you need a walk, drop-in, or a cozy home for daycare, I’ve got you covered! Right now, I have a flexible schedule and extra time since I’m off work until the 14th. I’m a dog mom to two sweet pups (a golden retriever and a lab), so pet care is already part of my everyday life — from morning walks to playtime and cuddles. I’m home during the day, live in a pet-friendly space, and love being outside, so adding more dogs into my routine feels natural and fun. Whether it’s a walk, drop-in, or daycare, I make sure each pet feels safe, loved, and cared for like they’re my own. I’m a dog mom to two sweet pups — a golden retriever and a lab — so caring for dogs is second nature. At my home, your dog will have a cozy, pet-friendly space, plenty of walks, and lots of love and attention. For drop-ins and walks, I stick to your routine and make sure your dog feels safe, seen, and happy. I’m big on communication, always send photo updates, and treat every dog like they’re part of the family.

“Allison was so amazing with my dogs! She is super sweet, thorough, responsible, communicative. I will definitely be going to her first for my next dog care needs!!! 10/10”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a child! We have always had dogs in our family! My husband and I recently moved to Venice and we are not allowed to have dogs at our condo 😞. We miss having a dog soooo much! We want to show your dogs that they are loved and treasured by playing with them and caring for them! I’m available Mon through Sun until 5 pm to care for your sweet dog 🐶 by walking, playing, feeding or just cuddling with them. I can also care for them in your home while your on vacation! I will care for your dogs as if they were my own, with love and kindness and I will follow your house rules in the process... My husband and I are retired so we are available to take care of your sweet baby anytime you need us! We're here to love on them!!! We will need to care for your pets at your home as we live in a condo that does not allow pets...sad by true :(

About: I’ve always had a deep love for animals, and I feel truly lucky to have the time to care for them. Over the years, I’ve had both dogs and a cat (though not all at once!), and I’ve come to really understand the unique personalities and needs of each. Whether your pet needs a walk, some one-on-one playtime, or overnight care, I’m happy to help in whatever way works best for you and your little one. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I’m always open to special requests or routines that help them feel safe and loved ❤️ I currently work part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility throughout the week. I have several completely free days, and when I do work, it’s just a short daytime shift. That means I can be there for your pet as often as you need — whether it’s for regular visits, extended stays, or anything in between. I understand that letting someone into your home to care for your pet is a big deal, and I don’t take that trust lightly. I treat your space with the same respect and care I would my own, and your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. Whether I’m there for a quick visit or an overnight stay, you can count on me to be reliable, gentle, and fully present with your pet. I’m always happy to follow your instructions closely and keep you updated, so you can have total peace of mind while you’re away.

About: I’ve always grown up with dogs. Small and large I’ve worked with them. I walked dogs for my neighbors when I was in high school. I truly believe There is no greater joy than the joy brought to you by a dog. I hope Ripley and I have the privilege of spending quality time with your best friend.

Teresa has helped us out when our dogs needed to be walked during the day or if we were on an extended vacation. In any scenario, my pups are always well-attended too and they are never anxious. Teresa is an absolute dog lover and my dogs can sense that. If you are in need of capable, genuine loving care and attention for your pups, you will be very glad to have Teresa caring for them.”
