Dog Walking Siesta Key

“Taylor did very well with Teddy. He is a little skittish, but she was able to get him to trust her. I will use Taylor again when I have the opportunity to go out to dinner or to a ball game. She was very attentive to the dog and played with him to make him feel more comfortable.”

About: - Currently, I WFH part time so I have flexibility to take care of your fur baby. - I have a lovely bunny (Bunzo) that I had with me for 3.5 years and have treated him like a prince. He gets unlimited hay, greens, and a couple treats daily. He runs around inside the house from time to time, but likes to relax under my bed. - I have friends and family whom have dogs and cats that I have taken care of over the years. - Personality-wise: my friends and family would say I am very loving, caring, and bubbly so I will show that same love to every pet I meet and care for. Currently, I am a part time WFH accountant. I work 20 hours a week, that includes working one day in person on Thursdays 1-5pm. When I am home, I have the ability the take your pet for a walk or monitor them outside in the fenced backyard. I can bring my laptop/phone around to do work on the go too. We have a fenced-in backyard where your pet can roam around. I will have my bunny around in the house, but I can keep him in a separate room to roam around, if need be. I will be happy to walk dogs in nearby spots they enjoy.

About: I've had pets in my home as long as can remember, I love animals. I love going on walks, playing ball or tug of war, or just a belly rub and snuggle. I treat every pet as if it were my own and enjoy figuring out what makes them tick. Your pet's peace of mind and happiness are always a priority. I would gladly provide updates and photos while you are away, rest assured they are in good hands. I am currently working and enjoy a somewhat flexible schedule. I know that we can find a schedule that works for all of us. I can’t wait to meet you and your pet. I am an empty nester ,I have been in Florida for almost 4 years and have recently settled in Sarasota. I have enjoyed getting to know different parts of the state and look forward to more exploring.

About: I will treat your babies just like mine. I will take them to dog parks, on my boat, or adventures if you'd like and if theyre adventurous. I have lifejackets for all sizes. Also, I'm amazing with senior dogs if they just want to relax at home. Currently, my dog is 13 years old that I've had since she were puppy. The most important would be away from your pups are 4.5 hours. I own and run a boat tour business in the area. Most of my trips are 4 hours max. Whatever your rules are at your home is what I do. When I take them out on adventures I always keep them on leash unless it is gated. Even if they have recall, I don't chance that.

About: I am a dedicated and dependable pet care provider with over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for animals independently. I have grown up around pets my entire life and have cared for a wide variety of animals, including dogs, cats, chickens, rabbits, rats, fish, and turtles. This diverse background has given me strong instincts, adaptability, and a deep understanding of individual animal needs. I currently own a cat who is a cherished companion, and caring for her has reinforced my commitment to providing patient, attentive, and high-quality care. I treat every pet as if they were my own and understand how important trust and communication are when caring for someone else’s beloved animals. My goal is to ensure that every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved, whether through daily care, companionship, feeding, or maintaining routines. I take pride in being reliable, gentle, and attentive, and I am passionate about helping pet owners feel confident and at ease while they are away. I work as a server, so my schedule can vary from week to week; however, I typically work evening shifts from around 4:00 PM to 9:00 PM. This makes me most available for pet care during morning and early afternoon hours (approximately 8:00 AM to 2:00 PM), which works well for daily visits, walks, and check-ins. I am happy to accommodate overnight pet sitting, and I always communicate my work schedule in advance to ensure it aligns with both the pet’s routine and the owner’s expectations. Clear communication is a priority for me, and I strive to make sure every pet receives consistent, reliable care while their owner is away. I understand that every pet and owner has unique needs, routines, and expectations. I am committed to working closely with pet parents to ensure all care requirements are met, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and daily routines. Whether a pet thrives on a structured schedule or prefers a more flexible, relaxed routine, I am happy to accommodate what works best for both the pet and the owner. My goal is always to provide consistent, attentive care while making the experience as stress-free and comfortable as possible for everyone involved.

“Susan was wonderfully patient with our very fearful dog. She worked to gain his trust and now he is happy to see her and go for a walk with her. Very glad we found Susan!”

About: I have always had a dog in my life since I was born but my caretaking journey started when a little corgi entered into my world. She was an escape artist, food fiend, she couldn’t be left for too long and she battled anxiety her whole life, but she brought me the most joy. She taught me attentiveness, and limitless love. She recently crossed the rainbow bridge so I have been missing the presence of my fury friend but am excited to hang out with doggies again!!! Skills include: puppy care, senior care, special needs. During the school year, I am a grad student and my weekends are usually free. I have class 9-5:30pm tue-fri with a 2 hour break 12-2pm everyday. Mondays are always free. I appreciate a list of instructions specifically stating your pets schedule and needs. The more detailed the better:) I love to take videos and pictures to keep you updated through the process. I know how important it is to have peace of mind when leaving your baby with a stranger.

“Kathy took great care of our pup and was prompt with her walking times. She was quick to respond to messages. She sent updates and pictures and we will definitely use her again in the future !”

About: As a massive animal lover myself, being able to love and care for your animal is my top priority! So excited to meet your fur adorable baby! As a part time jobs what is better than sharing that time with a happy fur baby! Taking time to pay personally attention to the each and every pup! Making sure the animal is safe and taken care of with food, water and proper attire for the walks. Using any specific tool you like to use with your pet to insure proper handling!

About: With over three decades of pet‑care experience while working in corporate positions, I bring a calm, steady presence to your home. I’ve raised and cared for both dogs and cats — including my Yorkie and British Shorthair — and I understand the unique needs of different ages, personalities, and routines. I’m very observant and proactive, especially with senior pets or those who need a little extra attention. I communicate clearly throughout the day, sharing updates so you always feel informed and reassured. Your pets will be safe, comfortable, and genuinely cared for while you’re away. Some housekeeping…I hold dates for 4 hours. Please complete the booking and payment through Rover within that time so I can confirm your reservation. If you need more time, just let me know — otherwise the request will expire and the dates will be released. Currently, working part-time. So, I have plenty of time to fit into your routine. I am able to work between mornings and evenings each day of the week. Mid-day depends on the weekday schedule. I would like to drop-in daily vs. stay over or have your pet at my home. Living in an open concept home that is not big enough for many pets. Currently, the cat tolerates the Yorkie dog, so I like to keep the peace at home.

About: I’ve taken care of many different pets for many years! Family, friends and neighbors have trusted me with all of their pet care needs, from overnight care to daily walks! I have lots of availability to look after your animals and would love to meet them! I love mid day walks or drop in visits! I can adapt well in any environment but would also love to have them stay with me! I have no pets at home so no need to worry about them fighting for my attention

About: I'm a lifelong pet lover with 20+ years of experience caring for both dogs and cats. I spent 18 years as a cat owner and currently share my home with Willy, my 5-year-old English Bulldog, and Lilly Grace, my 3-year-old French Bulldog. I work remotely from my home in Sarasota's Gulf Gate East neighborhood, allowing me to provide attentive care, frequent potty breaks, playtime, walks, and lots of love. I'll treat your pets like family and keep you updated with photos and messages while you're away. 🐾 Around here, the dogs have me on a pretty reliable schedule! Since I work from home, my days naturally include potty breaks, walks, playtime, treats (when approved!), and belly rubs. Your pet will have company throughout the day and won't be left alone wondering when their humans are coming back. I know leaving your pet with someone new can be stressful. That's why my goal is simple: make your pet feel safe, loved, and spoiled in all the right ways. With over 20 years of pet-parent experience, I'll keep routines consistent, provide plenty of attention, and send updates so you can enjoy your time away knowing your furry family member is in good hands.

About: Hi, I’m Valerie! Born and raised in New York, I’m almost 30 (not the podcast 😉) and currently living between Florida and the Northeast. I work remotely in design and marketing, which gives me the flexibility to pet sit between work, cafés, and yoga. I’ve cared for pets in both Williamsburg and Sarasota — from plant sitting to dog sitting. Most recently, I looked after two amazing pups, a Rottweiler named Jono and a Scottish Terrier named Murphy. I completely fell in love with them! That experience opened my eyes to how much joy (and care) goes into looking after dogs, and it made me want to continue doing this whenever I’m visiting friends and family in the Northeast this fall (a perfect escape from hurricane season). I’m attentive, active, and love spending time outdoors — so your pup will always get plenty of walks, play, and love. I’m comfortable with medium-to-large dogs, but I do have a cat allergy, so I focus solely on dog sitting. If you’re looking for someone reliable, caring, and flexible with scheduling — I’d be happy to help care for your furry family member! I work full-time remotely Monday–Friday as a Social Media Manager, which gives me plenty of flexibility to be with your pets throughout the day. I can step away from my desk for walks, playtime, and snuggles in between meetings, lunch breaks, and coffee runs — so your pup won’t be left alone for long stretches. I can walk them, say hello, feed them or have a pup sleepover for a short-term and/ or long-term stay to keep them safe at home.
