“Sofia is fantastic to work with. She was very flexible when I arranged an initial meeting with her and she was very prompt. She was also very sweet with my dog. I look forward to working with her in the future.”

“Jewels was wonderful. She did a meet and greet prior to the actual dog walking appointment. That really impressed me. She also faced numerous challenges with my condo complex and access. But she overcame them with no problems. She also kept me informed about everything with my dog. Cant say enough good about her. I highly recommend Jewel.”

“Nevaeh was great. Extremely reliable and consistent. She helped us for a week for morning and afternoon dog walking/feeding. She has a positive personality and our dog responded very well to her. Highly recommend!”


“Nicole is the best! So sweet and patient but also knows how to handle difficult cases :) She was accommodating, prompt and efficient. The doggies loved her and you will too!”

“Highly recommend her! She communicates and arrives on time. Our dog must have really enjoyed his time with her because he was napping when I got home and was tired. She updated me with great pics of their walk.”

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 part time and enjoy a flexible schedule. I know that we can find a schedule that works for all of us. I am an empty nester with a longtime boyfriend; we have been in Florida for almost two 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’ve grown up with dogs, always at least 3 at a time and all sizes and shapes. What else to say… I just love dogs. 😊 I’m working nighttime and ready to take care of your pet every day after 9 am. I can come morning and/or afternoon, once or twice a day. I will come and look around first to make sure it’s clean and I will check the water and the food. Then I will take your pet or a walk and play a bite with his own toys and I’ll have some with me.

“Ellen is great! Super conscience and thoughtful- she comes prepared with her own poop bags, a portable water bowl and bottled water for a break for the pups in this FL heat. Much appreciated. Ellen filled in while our regular walker was unavailable this past week and both my labs loved her and enjoyed their morning walks with her. I will definitely reach out to her again if I need a walker and highly recommend her to anyone.”


“Ashton was so nice and patient with my dog, he is very anxious and not always the friendliest but she did a great job with Apollo, and Apollo seemed to also be very confortable around her, we will continue to use her services as we were very pleased!!!😄”

“Highly recommend Crysta’s services! Took great care of my pup! She was punctual, and spent at least 30 minutes with him with his daily walks for the week. I will definitely use her again when I need her services in the future.”

About: Hi! I’m a reliable and experienced pet lover who has been caring for animals for as long as I can remember. I have experience with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and energy levels. My goal is always to make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I understand that every dog has their own routine and personality, so I always take the time to learn what works best for them. Whether your pet needs long walks, playtime, lots of attention, or a calm and relaxed environment, I’m happy to adjust to their needs to make sure they are happy and stress-free. I also have a dog of my own—an Australian Shepherd—so I’m very comfortable handling energetic dogs and making sure they get the exercise and attention they need. I truly enjoy spending time with animals and treating them like part of the family. I’m currently home full-time, which allows me to be very flexible with scheduling. I’m available for dog walking, drop-in visits, and house sitting, and I can often accept last-minute bookings. When caring for pets in your home, I make sure to follow their normal routine, including walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and any special instructions you provide so they feel comfortable and secure. Your pet’s happiness and safety are always my top priority, and I’ll make sure they get plenty of love, attention, care, and pictures while you’re away. I work remotely, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to be available throughout the day for pet care. I’m able to accommodate morning, midday, evening, and weekend visits, as well as last-minute bookings when needed. Because I’m home-based, I can give pets plenty of attention, stick to their routine, and be consistent with walks, feedings, and check-ins. I’m happy to work around your pet’s specific schedule to make sure they stay comfortable and well cared for. When caring for pets in a client’s home, my top priority is keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and any specific preferences your pet has. I make sure your pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, and companionship while you’re away, and I always respect your home by keeping things clean and tidy. I also provide regular photo and update messages so you can feel confident that your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for. Every pet is different, so I take the time to adjust to their personality—whether they’re energetic and playful or more calm and independent.

About: I’ve been around animals since I was a baby. I’ve begun taking care of my neighbor’s pets when I was in middle school. I’ve seen all species of animals from dogs to fish to even lizards! I am not afraid to get down and dirty if need be! Currently looking for a job, so I am available anytime any day! No need to worry about a job getting in the way! I will be available until further notice While I cannot provide board at this time, I can come to your home, clean and take care of the house if need be. I can handle any situation
“Stephany has been coming over for walks with my senior pup for a few weeks now. A couple of the requests were short-notice and she was still able to help. She’s very responsive, gives great reports on how the visit went and always includes lots of pics. Her love for animals is so apparent! Thank you Stephany!!”

“Devynn is an exceptional dog walker. Her passion for animals is evident, making her more than just a walker – she's a trusted companion. Always punctual and reliable, Devynn ensures my dog gets both physical exercise and mental stimulation on every walk. Devynn's communication is excellent, providing regular updates and cute photos. Highly recommended!”

By far, Penelope’s favorite! Kim was very sweet and communicative, sent me pictures the entire time. It is clear that she really values what she does and goes the extra mile to make sure the pup is happy and the owner has peace of mind. I will continue to book Kim every chance I get!

Jewels was wonderful. She did a meet and greet prior to the actual dog walking appointment. That really impressed me. She also faced numerous challenges with my condo complex and access. But she overcame them with no problems. She also kept me informed about everything with my dog. Cant say enough good about her. I highly recommend Jewel.

She was absolutely amazing with my girl! She went on a nice walk, played with her, and showed so much patience—especially in the beginning when my pup was scared and nervous. She was super professional, kind, and truly caring. I would trust her with any dog. Highly recommend Camilia!
