Dog Walkers in Port Leon, FL

About: I’m a veterinary technician at Viscaya Prado Veterinary Hospital in Cape Coral, I volunteer weekly at the Tallahassee Animal Shelter on the vet team, I volunteer at AVS Equine Hospital, and I also used to work at The Barker Lounge Doggy Day Care! Through my experience, I’m comfortable administering medications and handling pets of all sizes and temperaments! I currently serve as the President of the Pre-Veterinary Club of Florida State University. Taking care of pets is a regular part of my week! As a Pre-Vet student animals are a major part of my academic and personal routine! I have a dog of my own, so pets in my care become part of our little pack while they’re with me. I follow each pet’s specific routine, whether that’s feeding, walking, or medication and I do everything I can to make them feel safe and at home. In my house, pets get plenty of attention, playtime, and rest. I also offer care in clients’ homes, where I maintain their normal routine and provide regular updates with photos and messages!

About: I've had dogs for nearly my entire life and enjoy being around and spending time with all dogs I've ever met. When you have to be away or just need a caring pair of hands I can be there for you. I'm looking to make this a part time effort to help out people who need caring hands. I am typically available just about anytime night or day. We have 3 cats at our home (Beef Broccoli and Brisquette) as well as a German Shepard Husky mix (Moxxi). While Beef prefers to live outside and passively engages with us the way outside cats tend to do. Our indoor buddies are happy playful and surprisingly talkative, they get their flea meds bimonthly as we rarely have flea issues.

About: I’ve been a dog (and occasionally cat) owner for over 30 years. I’ve raised puppies and cared for them in their senior years, as well. My latest rescue, Darcy Grace, passed away this year. I work part time close to my home. I have flexibility to leave and return to work when needed. I look forward to having dog smiles and cat purring in my life again. I have a fenced in yard with plenty of shade trees for outside lounging. I have a doggie door that can be open or closed whichever you prefer. I will follow your instructions for care and give lots of love while you are away.

“Destinee has been so wonderful helping to walk my two large golden retrievers! She has always been prompt, communicative, and very friendly. My dogs love seeing her and going for walks with her! I would reccomend her to anyone! She has been such a huge help for me while I am healing from an injury.”

About: I love all animals, all shapes, sizes and colors. I have experience in every animal kingdom. I have a very safe and large fenced in oasis for your child to play in. I could talk your ear off about my own schedule and routine but that would be less time for walks! I work from home at my “real job” and have a part time job in retail. I manage both of these schedules and can fit you in! I find a happy dog is a dog on a schedule. I prefer to have specific instructions on any schedules for special pets. Pets will not be left unattended for extended periods.

About: Hi, I’m Kayla! I’m a full time student at FAMU and I double major in animal science and agriculture. I own a 5 year old Rottweiler named Nyema, she’s very mild mannered and mostly stays in her room, so you shan’t worry if you have a smaller dog or a cat. I often volunteer at the local animal shelter and I’m currently in training to become a vet technician. I love animals (obviously) and I’ve been pet sitting for the past 6 years and I’m experienced in sitting dogs and cats, but I’m open to sitting exotic animals. Being a full time student I have very flexible availability. I’m always available to sit overnight, and on weekends. During the week, I’m free on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Monday, Wednesday, and Friday I am available after 3:45 p.m.

About: I’ll treat your family members like my family members. Thank you for trusting me with your loved ones when you are temporarily out of town. I am available full time on weekends and have some availability between 9am and 4pm Monday through Friday. Your loved ones are always my top priority. Lots of attention and care. Your home or mine. They bring so much joy to us, I love providing love and comfort when you are not available.

About: Been around dogs, cats, gerbils, and birds throughout my life. All pets are considered family. They need love, respect, and guidance, too. I have walked dogs, groomed cats, cleaned out kennels, cages, and cat boxes, and play is important even for older pets. Most of my days have availability for pet care. A good time for care could be early morning, mid day, or late afternoon/evening just keep communication clear and timely. I have two cats who require biscuit making cuddles and play everyday. I groom their fur and shorten their nails as needed. Feeding for them is twice a day and their play incorporates exercise.

About: I have five cats and a dog of my own. I love exploring new trails and finding new places to walk. I also have experience administering medication to pets. I grew up with a dog that needed lots of medicine. I have plenty of experience with injections, pills, and liquids. I will treat your baby like my own. I truly miss the animals I watch when I inevitably have to leave. I hope you will trust me with your baby soon! I am able to move my schedule with notice. I typically have school Tuesdays in person every other week. Just let me know in advance and I can make it work! I am very careful with making sure harnesses are on and safe. I make sure the water and food bowl are full and nothing is out that is dangerous.

“My boys LOVE Shafika! They go on their weekly walks and it's our favorite day of the week!”

About: I'm basically your pet’s fun aunt—snacks, snuggles, and all the love! I’ve got experience with wild little puppies who think everything is a chew toy, and sweet seniors who just want a slow stroll and a cozy nap. I’m super in tune with each pet’s vibe, whether they need a play buddy or a calm companion. I keep things fun, safe, and stress-free—for both you and your pet. Plus, you’ll always get updates because I know being away from your furry BFF is tough. Think of me as the next best thing to you! Caring for pets fits into my routine naturally—I love it. Whether it’s a walk, some playtime, or just keeping them company, I make sure they feel safe, seen, and loved. I’m happy to work around their schedule (and yours) to make things easy and comfortable for everyone. I am also a local Realtor, so i do majority of my work from my home office, so it allows more time for my pets to be out of crates and more play time! When I care for pets in my home, I create a calm, welcoming space where they can feel safe and relaxed. I stick to their usual routines as much as possible—feeding, walks, playtime, and plenty of cuddle breaks. I keep things cozy and make sure they get lots of attention, so they never feel alone. If I’m caring for pets in their own home, I treat their space with respect and follow their usual schedule closely to keep things familiar and comfortable. Whether it’s sticking to feeding times or favorite walking routes, I aim to make the experience as smooth and stress-free as possible for both pets and owners. No matter where I’m caring for them, I focus on building trust and making sure every pet feels happy and secure.

About: I come from a family of animal lovers — both furry and with scales! I have 2 dogs of my own, Memphis and Luna. I also am I reptile keepers, and have 3 geckos! If you’re also looking for someone to look after your exotic animals, I am your girl! Due to working in education, I have a lot of time during the summer. I enjoy the flexibility of pet and house sitting because I can still be committed to my college studies. I provide pet care for my animals daily and look forward to meeting your animal's and family's needs! While in a client's home, I respect every set rule and expectation. I will strive to stick to your animal's natural routine and do anything to ensure they are most comfortable.

“Fel was wonderful! I came home to happy puppies after she walked both my sweet babies 😊”

About: I love being able to leave my dog ​​with someone I trust without the worry of being left alone at home I do not like to leave him alone they need constant care. I love doing everything in his company to play, walk around, give him his food. They are like people they know a lot more than what you imagine, sometimes they even seem to want to talk or at least my husky wants to talk ... The truth is that everyone is precious and each one is a different world but everyone has something in common and they would give anything for their owner I can only say that I love dogs since all my life I have had puppies with me !

About: Ever since I was a little girl I’ve always been in love with animals. I never saw them as just pets, I saw them as family. My first experience with animals started at the age of four when I wanted to ride horses. This activity grew my love for animals and eventually directed me to volunteering at freedom ride. Freedom ride allows disabled children to ride horses as a therapeutic exercise in order to build their confidence and sustainability. Once I was able to work, I was offered a position as a kennel technician at paws & play resort for dogs. This job allowed to me work with different types of dogs while tending to their needs. Whether it was walking them, bathing them, feeding them, playing with them, and even cleaning up after them. I always maintained a smile on my face. I am currently a veterinary assistant at petco & a college student who is able to give my full attention to any pet that is apart of my care in my home. While I don’t have a backyard, I allow my cats Acorn and Twix to roam around the apartment and on the balcony. Bathing animals is never a problem for me so don’t be afraid to ask.

About: Beginning in my preteen years, I have cared for various breeds of dogs, from newborn puppies to full-grown dogs. I'm confident in understanding what your furry friend needs or wants, whether a bath, bathroom break, playtime, dinner, or snuggles. I’m a travel nurse with Fusion Medical, and I recently decided to move back home to Tallahassee. As of now, I can accommodate any scheduling needs. I am taking a break from fieldwork and will focus on advancing my career. Sadly, I can’t accommodate your furry friends in my home at this time. However, I can accommodate their needs in their own safe place. I can also continue and maintain their care plan according to your wishes.

About: Something that sets me aside from other sitters is that I really like to get time to know the pet I’m sitting like knowing what’s there’s favorite toy and which one isn’t Pet care fits my daily routine because it’s a pretty great job to have , especially since I love a animals , and that i really love doing I first try to build a trusting relationship with the pet because every pet isn’t the same so you have to sometimes take your time with different pets.
