“Tyler was the first person I used on this app to come walk my dog while I was at work. She took so many pictures while on the walk and gave me a very detailed report on how it went! I’m very happy that she’s the first (and hopefully the only ?) person I chose for this job!”

About: I love to go on long walks and love being outside as often as I can! I have a dog as well and love cuddling with her and playing with all of her favorite toys. I have walked and watched dogs for about 15 years now. I’m good with all types of personalities from calm and sweet to very hyper. I’m so excited to meet your dog and help out as much as I can! I just moved to Fort Myers from NY and currently in between jobs right now, so I am very flexible with my schedule and availability I have a 10 lb bichon frise/shih tzu mix who loves to cuddle. I also have 2 cats and they all love each other. I make sure to keep my dog active as well as take time for cuddles. My dog deals with kidney stones so her diet requires lots of water so I make sure to take her outside often.

About: I’ve always been an animal person, from dogs to fish I have a genuine love for every animal for as long as I can remember. I have a deep passion for animal care, and I find it extremely rewarding doing pretty much anything. I would love to have a million dogs, but of course that isn’t possible so meeting and caring for other peoples’ is the next best thing to me. My schedule is typically flexible, I work part time as a barista. As much of a notice as possible is always appreciated, but at least a few days in advance typically. I will always do my best to make it work so as long as you work with me I can definitely work with you! I love to play with dogs, mine lack in playing skills so I would love to be around an energetic playful dog. I can be very proactive with potty breaks, and can handle a dog on a leash. I can do anything from sitting on the couch petting to walking around the neighborhood. Unless preferred otherwise, I would never crate a dog while i’m in their presence - there’s no reason for that when i’m there to take care of them.

About: I've been pet sitting for about 10 years, I have experience with large and small breeds, young and old. I just enjoy helping pets feel happy and loved while their owners are away. I work part time and have flexible hours in the afternoons and evenings. I am also very flexible with staying at client's homes for pet sitting especially on weekends because I don't work those days. Every pet has their specific routine and needs, I am very detail oriented and will make sure that their routine will carry on just like you would do for them.

“I couldn't recommend a better dog walker. Her photos and summary of each walk were fun to read. My pup loved her. She was flexible on the time schedule. We occasionally called her to modify the scheduled times and she was very flexible. I was very thankful.”

About: Majored in vet tech, I’ve had animals since I was 7 years old. My oldest dog I have is 13 years old and the youngest is two years old. I have a huge heart and passion for animals. I believe animals are angels on earth and deserve to be cared for and loved on. I enjoy taking them on long walks, or just sitting with them and giving them comfort. I am available weekends from 6am-10pm. Weekdays I am available after 5:30 am-10:00am & 9:30pm-10:00pm. This year I will be available for almost every holiday as long as I am notified a head of time, I will accommodate to the best of my ability. I have a huge backyard and two fur babies to keep your fur baby company. I have experience in crate training and I will safely crate your fur babies.

About: As long as I can remember I have loved being able to help others out by watching their babies. What sets me apart is my patience, reliability, and genuine care for every child I work with. I take the time to understand each child’s personality and needs, while keeping them safe, engaged, and comfortable. I’m dependable, communicative, and always aim to give parents peace of mind. While my kids are at school, I have plenty of time to provide attentive and loving care for your pets. I understand that some pet owners may feel more comfortable having their pets cared for without children around, especially if their pet is nervous or fearful of children. During school hours, I’m able to focus completely on your pet and make sure they receive the care, attention, and comfort they need in a calm environment. I always follow the care instructions and routines provided by each pet owner. If you have a specific list of rules, feeding schedule, medications, activities, or boundaries for your pet, I will make sure to follow them carefully. I’m happy to play, cuddle, and spend extra time with your pet if you’re comfortable with that. However, if your pet prefers their own space or you would rather I only provide the care they need, I will completely respect that and never force interaction. For overnight care, if your pet is comfortable staying in their own home, I can travel back and forth as needed to let them out, feed them, and make sure they’re doing well. If you’re comfortable with your pet staying with me instead, I can bring them into my home and keep them completely separated from my children so everyone stays safe and comfortable. My priority is always following your preferences while making sure your pet feels secure, cared for, and respected.

About: I’ve loved cats and dogs my whole life, caring for pets since I was a child. For the past two years I’ve worked as a vet tech, combining that lifelong passion with hands-on medical care, and support for pets and their owners. My experience blends deep affection for animals with practical skills in their health and well‑being. I usually work at a vet clinic from 8:00 AM–5:00 PM with a lunch break at 12:00 PM. During my shift I check on the animals, feed and water them, and let them out. After work, I get home, the animals are free for the rest of the night. I prioritize maintaining the specific rhythm and comfort they’re used to at your home. I strictly follow your feeding schedules and medical routines, ensuring they have a dedicated, cozy space to retreat to whenever they need a nap. For dogs, this means plenty of structured walks and backyard playtime, while for cats, I provide vertical perches and dedicated one-on-one enrichment to satisfy their curiosity. Above all, I keep a close eye on their body language to ensure they feel secure and loved, and I’ll send you regular photo updates so you can see exactly how much fun and relaxation they’re having while you're away.
