Dog Walking North Port

“Tara has been excellent with my timid rescue Chow Chow. She figured out how to charm her and more importantly to get her to trust that she could go for walks and enjoy herself. Tara has been very helpful to get her the exercise that she needs. More than that you can tell that she cares about our dog. Tara keeps me informed on every detail about Rosie’s walk and her visit.”

“Norah is truly the best! She goes above and beyond for our boys every single time. She even surprised them with their own balls for the dog park, which just shows how thoughtful and invested she is. Norah is always timely, incredibly communicative, and sends the best photos that clearly show how happy and well cared for our dogs are. We have total peace of mind knowing they’re with her. Thank you, Norah — we’re so grateful to have you!”

About: Your Pet's Home Away From Home with a Lifetime Animal Enthusiast I'd be honored to welcome your beloved pets into my home! My life has been devoted to animals, starting on a ranch where I gained hands-on experience with everything from horses, dogs, and cats to chickens and beyond. As a retired horse trainer and long-time dog breeder, I bring a wealth of knowledge in animal health, behavior, and communication. I've personally trained service dogs for mobility, and I'm passionate about helping dogs overcome behavioral challenges. With your permission, I can address specific training needs your dog might have, such as potty training, leash manners, or breaking other bad habits, ensuring their time with me is both enjoyable and productive. Rest assured, your pets will be treated as cherished members of my family during their stay. Our home is a calm, adult-only environment, providing a peaceful and safe space for your companions. I'm available at anytime to make sure your pet is well taken care of. I have dedicated my life to animals and I love it. With many years of dedicated experience across a diverse range of animals, I offer exceptional pet care grounded in health, compassion, and understanding. My extensive background includes not only general animal well-being but also specialized expertise in handling animals with specific needs and successfully training dogs and other animals through positive methods. We do not have any small children or any children. Just adults that love animals. I'm committed to ensuring every pet under my care feels loved, safe, and comfortable. My flexible availability means I can accommodate your pets' schedules and individual requirements at any time. For larger companions, I also have several giant crates to ensure their comfort if needed. Dogs will be crated at night only if they need to be. If your dog is potty trained and can be trusted being loose in a house overnight then they will not be crated unless the pet owner wants them to be crated. Pets always have fresh water and are fed as scheduled by the pet owner. We do board cats and they are kept in a seprate area of our home. We have a very large lani and pool. Your pets will never be unsupervised when they are in our pool area. I have a very large screened in lani that the dogs can run and play in. I do have a small fenced area for little dogs. I do not leave the dogs outside unattended due to risk of over heating, escaping, cane toads, poisonous snakes and fire ants. I walk the dogs as many times as they need to, to go potty. I've been told by multiple pet parents that other sitters just put their dogs out in a yard unsupervised and their dogs were attacked by other dogs. I'm always supervising your dogs.

“Connor has been wonderful with Chanel. He has been on time to each appointment and very kind and gentle with my baby. So thankful for him and recommend to all.”

About: I am such a happy person who LOVES all animals and the more they play they more excited I am! I am very adaptable to your dog/cat needs. If they like to play, I will wear out every toy they own! If your furry friend likes to lounge around, I am absolutely okay with being a couch potato for the day! I am able to match your dog/cat personality and daily activities and enjoy it every second of the day we spend together! I promise that if you hire me you will see how I get along with your furry family member and all your worries will be set to ease and you will be able to see first hand how well I handle all animals! I am a Nurse who has some extra time on her hands looking to play, walk, or spend quality time with your furry friend while you are away! I have a varying schedule but I am always up front about my availability! I always ask for detailed schedules or information about your pets so I know what they are used to and can keep things the same while you’re gone so it doesn’t feel like anything has changed and can keep their comfort level roughly the same

About: I have 3 dachshunds at home. Two are seniors and one is a puppy. I also cared for my senior cat up until she was 17. 🤍 My animals are my babies. At home, I am described as a helicopter parent...(always hovering) making sure they are happy & safe. I have pet experience with medical conditions such as IVDD, diabetes, cushings, asthma, etc. I am familiar with all of the poisonous plants, foods, toxins in your home and dangerous wildlife in our area. I take the safety of your baby seriously, just as if they were my own. I am new to creating a Rover profile, but not new to pet sitting. I've been watching friends, family & neighbor's fur kids since I was in high school. work from home as a social media manager, so my schedule is fairly flexible. I rarely am ever out of town (away from my kids)- so more than likely I can look after your kids! 🐾🐶🐱 I like to treat animals as if they were my own. How would I want a sitter to be with my baby? Kind, patient, fun, and always safe. I don't mind texting check-in photos or a short summary of my visit. I am easy to communicate with and will be happy to keep a routine and do my best to follow instructions for your kids.

“First day had little concern as our Bhairava is big. Hailey took care of him well and we are very happy. Thank you Hailey, see you later.”

About: Hi! I’m a stay-at-home mom and lifelong animal lover, which means your pup will receive plenty of love, attention, and supervision throughout the day—never long hours home alone. I only accept a limited number of dogs at a time so I can provide personalized care and make every guest feel like part of the family. My home has a secure, fully fenced yard where dogs can safely run, play, sniff, and enjoy plenty of outdoor time. Inside, they’ll have a clean, comfortable environment with lots of cuddles, playtime, and opportunities to relax. I do my best to keep your dog’s routine as close to home as possible, whether that means sticking to feeding schedules, administering medication, or providing extra potty breaks and exercise. I know how nerve-racking it can be to leave your pet behind, so I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages throughout their stay, giving you peace of mind while you’re away. My goal is simple: for your dog to have so much fun that they’re excited to come back for their next visit. I can’t wait to welcome your furry family member into our home! My boys are now in elementary school, so I have extra time on my hands & wanted to help my husband financially. I also don’t travel much for holidays as I have a large family, so I am around for all your Holiday vacation needs! I follow good instructions, so whatever you say is whatever I do! Guaranteed! I have a big dog and a medium sized dog so I am comfortable with all types & sizes of dogs. I will also leave you a note in regards to everything that happens with your furry love.

About: My husband and I love animals and have both owned pets our whole lives. Currently we have a one year old cat named Jackson. I grew up on a farm in Ukraine and was around different animals like cats, dogs, cows, chickens, pigs and other animals since I was a baby. When I was in middle and elementary school I would help take care of the classroom pets we had like fish and hamsters. Throughout Highschool I volunteered at our local animal shelter and took care of the cats and dogs. My husband also grew up in a family that has always owned both cats and dogs. Currently I’m a stay at home mom to our two daughters, which allows me to provide your pet with the best and continuous care through the whole duration of their stay. My husband owns a floor installing company with his brother and because he can chose his own hours, he will also be able to help me provide care for your pet throughout their stay with us. My husband and I own our own house with a spacious backyard and screened in lanai. Our house is the only one on our street so we don’t have neighbors to worry about, expect for our backyard neighbors who are snowbirds. The backyard is not fenced in yet but we plan to have a fence installed this year. Your pets will be free to roam around our whole house as well as the garage without any limitations. We have also set aside an empty room that can be used to separate pets if needed. We will be able to provide pet day care as well as boarding. Both my husband and I own vehicles and will also be able to provide driving services like pickup and drop off as well as client in home care.

“Haley was absolutely wonderful! She was punctual, friendly, trustworthy, and kind to my dog. She always took him for the full amount of walk time and was great about letting me know if he went to the bathroom. I would highly recommend her!”

About: I am currently at Unity College majoring in Captive Wildlife Care and Education, and I’m taking online classes and one of them is called Animal Care and Basic Training. I enjoy wildlife. I do have a part time job at Metro Diner in Port Charlotte. I work at Metro Diner - Monday to Thursday 8:30am to 3:30pm. They might ask me to cover for some other co-workers but I will let you know ahead of time. For pet sitting I am available Monday - Thursday 3:45pm to 8:30pm. I’ve always had trouble with getting paid on Rover. I prefer Venmo, Paypal or cash. I take out my dog frequently, I feed him 3 times a day breakfast, lunch and dinner. I give him baths. And I take advice from my classes.
