Dog Walking Sawdust

About: What sets me apart is the genuine love and care I have for animals. Ever since I was young, people have trusted me to look after their pets because they knew I’d treat them with patience, kindness, and attention. I’ve been an animal lover since I was about five years old, and caring for pets has always come naturally to me. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, so I take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their family is away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, overnight stays, or simply keeping them company, I’ll care for your pet as if they were my own. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I work part-time with a flexible schedule, which allows me plenty of time to provide attentive, reliable care for your pets. Whether it’s daily walks, drop-in visits, playtime, or overnight stays, I’m happy to work around your pet’s routine to make sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and loved while you’re away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to keep them on their normal routine so they feel safe and comfortable. I’ll follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, potty breaks, medication if needed, and any other specific requests. I’ll also make sure your home is treated with respect and kept clean while you’re away. My goal is to provide loving, dependable care so both you and your pet have peace of mind.

About: As retirees, Steven and I have reached a point in our lives where we have the time and freedom to pursue something we truly love...caring for our furry friends! We have 2 great guys of our own, Mac and Zac! Our flexible schedules have afforded us plenty of time to devote to those 2, providing them with the absolute best loving and safe home environment. In fact, we think they think we retired just for them! They have never been happier. And we know your pet (s) will love being with us too. We absolutely hated when we had to choose to lodge our guys in an impersonal setting, such as a commercial kennel. So we decided to "pay it forward" and offer others a much better alternative for their pets. Not to mention, the peace of mind of knowing that your pets are in the best of care. So whether it's walks, playtime or just good company, we are here to help! Being retired affords us the opportunity to be home daily. Therefore, our services are available 7 days a week. We love being outdoors but more than anything, we love pets! We've found that dogs have a sense of routine. Changes in that routine can be over-stimulating. Therefore, the preferred setting for dogs is to be either in their own homes or in a more personal home-like setting. That's why our services are so vital. Theirs definitely NO PLACE LIKE HOME (or HOME-LIKE) . We offer spacious climate controlled accommodations which include: 1. 2 - Generous size sleeping suite with room to move around and relax comfortably. 2. Comfy and clean doggie beds or you can choose to bring your own. 3. Individual feeding station which includes filtrated water dispensers 4. Personal Care - Individualized care catering to dog's unique needs and preferences

“I’m so grateful for Kelly! She’s helped me out twice in a last-minute pinch and was incredibly reliable, responsive, and kind. Lucy was well cared for and happy, and I had total peace of mind. Highly recommend!”

About: I grew up on a farm where I learned about the care for many different animals. I’ve pet sat for others since I was 16 and have been raising my own fur babies for almost 7 years now. I’m gentle, attentive, and value being on time. I’ll treat your fur baby like my own family with professional belly rubs and lots of walks! I am currently in nursing school, so when I’m not in class or at clinicals, I’m available to care for your pet however I am needed any day of the week. I am capable of tailoring care to your pet’s needs. Whether that means needing to be crated, given medication, bathed, or fed a certain way, I will do it. I know how important it is to want to be stress free when leaving your pet in the care of someone else which is why I want to create a safe and trustworthy environment so that you don’t have to worry while away.

“Tina is wonderful! My rescue pup felt comfortable with her and she’s usually scared of strangers. She went the extra mile & I highly recommend her!”

About: A loving teacher and transplant from Minnesota, I have cared for pets of all shapes and sizes since I was small! I'd love to meet and care for your fur baby! New to Florida, I am now a full time Band teacher in Bristol. I'd love to care for your fur babies if our schedules match up! I am compassionate and caring for pets but don't leave a trail when I've been in someone's space! I grew up a girl scout and we were taught to leave a place cleaner than when you've found it!

About: I love all animals and have experience with animals with minor medical needs (ie. pills, shots, creams, etc). I have 2 dogs and am a 4x foster with LCHS with three of them being medical foster puppies. I also have 6 cats who have all come from different situations and back rounds. I excel at following your pets schedule and needs. I commonly house sit for a 100+ lb dog and am more than willing to watch your dog at my home as long as they are good with other dogs and cats. I work a full time job M-F but am able to do lunchtime potty breaks. If you are interested in booking over weekdays it would be best that your fur baby can be alone for 4 hour increments. If your pet is people/pet friendly and you approve I am able to bring dogs to my office space. We do not have a fenced yard but live in a very walkable area. Our dogs are crate trained and we have no problem crating your fur baby or leaving them out per your preference.

About: I am new to the business of dog walking and dog sitting, but I have been around dogs the majority of my life. Growing up my family had three dogs, and currently I have a seven year old rescue dog, named Arya, whom I had adopted in 2019. I have lived in Tallahassee for almost 8 years now, so I am very familiar with the area. Looking forward to this experience! While I used to be employed as a TA at FSU when I was a graduate student, I am currently unemployed and searching for research positions as a biologist. My days consist currently of job applications, so I hace a flexible schedule. My own dog is a mutt, mixed with pitbull and Rottweiler, so I know there is no such thing as "a bad breed." I will treat all dogs with the same love and care.

“Thank you! I know Marley enjoys her walks with you!”

About: I’ve had animals my entire life and truly consider them family. I currently have two Labrador Retrievers and have cared for pets of all breeds, sizes, and personalities over the years.

Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in my client’s home, I focus on maintaining consistency so pets feel safe and comfortable. In my client’s home, I follow their established schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, litter box care, and medications. I make sure pets receive plenty of affection, exercise, and mental stimulation while keeping their environment clean and stress-free. I also provide regular updates, photos, and check-ins so owners feel confident and at ease while they’re away. When pets are in my home, they are treated like part of the family in a safe, loving environment. I ensure they get appropriate exercise, enrichment, rest, and supervision, while respecting any special instructions, dietary needs, or behavioral considerations. Above all, I care for every pet as if they were my own, prioritizing their safety, comfort, and happiness at all times.

I truly miss the animals I watch when I inevitably have to leave. I hope you will trust me with your baby soon! I currently work part time and I am in nursing school.
