Dog Walkers in Summerfield, FL

“Earnest was here on time, greeted Wookie and charmed him. The walk was documented, as were bathroom behaviors, and a picture of happy Wookie was sent. Earnest said he might wear sneakers next time as Wookie wanted to go fast. This person will be called upon again.”

About: My favorite pastime is walking with the dogs. In your neighborhood or in mine, we can go fast or we go slow, just as long as we go! No day is complete without some wags and walks. Does your fur baby need a special day or time for a walk? We can go on a morning run, afternoon walk, or an evening stroll. I do sleepovers! Does your pup want to stay at your place or mine? Either is fine. I have extra room on my couch and a comfy bed for your fur baby to lay their head.

“Sarah was amazing with my dog while I was away for a few days. She was extremely prompt on her timing and gave detailed reports on how my dog was doing after every visit. Sarah went above and beyond to go through all the details of feeding/schedule and my dogs likes and dislikes. I was at ease immediately after meeting Sarah at the meet and greet. I would 100% use Sarah again in the future!”

Bonnie P.

“We LOVE Sarah! She always stays on top of communication with texts and photos and goes above and beyond in every way. You can tell she truly loves dogs and what she does. Our fur baby adores her too and we know he’s always in good hands. Highly recommend her!!”

About: Since I was a child, I have always had pets in my house; dogs, cats, rabbits, birds, fish, etc. I have experience in basic training, working with senior dogs, medicating dogs, puppies (both caring for and potty training), and body language in dogs. I know much about mannerisms and behavior in dogs as well as how to combat the bad ones. I have worked with all types of dogs, as I have worked in the pet food industry before. I have volunteered with multiple dog rescues in Florida including The Animal League and Hound Haven. I am a certified Canine Training & Behavior Specialist as of 2021. I am currently half way through a pet nutrition course as of 2022. I am currently working at a pet store from 10am to 4pm everyday, except Wednesday and Sunday. They are pretty flexible however and I would be able to take a lunch to let out the pups if needed. I have recently moved to a 3 acre plot, in which we are currently building a doggy haven with tons of fenced in running area and in the future pools and play equipment. If a VIP (very important pet) doesn't have access to a backyard I like to walk 3+ times daily depending on the dog. I feed my dogs twice a day on the best food I make myself. I have literal baskets of dog toys as well as safe chews for the dogs who like to chew. I'd rather not take dogs to a dog park as of the safety issue. I have two horses and 18 chickens that roam on my 3 acres and can take dogs as long as they are on leash to meet them. I live with a roommate who also helps take care of any pets in the house. I have five pets in the house; my pigeon, Sterling who 'rules the roost'; my two ferrets, Dobby & Dougal who love to play; my large (75lbs) dog, Blake who is excited at first then is calm; and my medium (30lbs) dog Akira who is most playful of the bunch. I watch all interactions with my pets and do have 'safety' crates for my pets if any issues of socialization.

“Derek was great! Sent pictures everyday. Communicated wonderfully.”

“Jennifer is amazing and takes care of my Lacey as if she is her own! Lacey actual makes gleeful noises when she knows Jennifer is about to arrive! Jennifer was also so kind to make last minute arrangements for Lacey to stay with her parents when we had to head out of town. She’s a marvel, she is trustworthy- & comes & goes from our home when we are not here. Jennifer gets 10 star rating!”

About: I love owning and caring for animals! I've owned quite a few animals in my lifetime and have cared for animals with varying personalities, ages, and medical requirements. I have a lot of experience with very large dogs including a 150 lb Labrador and German Shepherds, but I have cared for dogs of all sizes and breeds! I do NOT discriminate with any breed including Pit Bulls and Rottweilers. I will take animals that may have aggressive tendencies but none with a history of physical attacks. My biggest concern is making sure your animal is as comfortable and happy as can be while you are away! I am open to check-ins; Having an animal is like having a child so whenever you want to check in on your buddy, don't be afraid to call. I have open availability right now. When your animal is under my care they will be with me 24/7 meaning frequent walks and bathroom breaks, trips to the park, and any activities your pet enjoys to do with you! Right now I have open availability so whether it’s in the morning or evening just a check in or an overnight stay, I can accommodate! It’s important for me to make sure your pet his giving the attention and love he needs while you’re away! I will always make sure they have plenty of potty breaks and play time! Or snuggles and relaxing, whatever you and your pet prefer.

“Cynthia was great walking Kobe. Kobe gets really excited when he sees her for his walk. I would highly recoomond her to my friends.”

“Angela has been very patient with me trying to learn how to use Rover. She's done an excellent job with my little Yoshi. He can be a bit of a wild card out on walks and she has handled him very well and he enjoys his walks very much.”

About: Myself and my wife have taken care of dogs ever since we were children we watch Neighbors dogs friends, dogs the kids dogs. We just love having dogs around. They get walked twice a day. We have a dog door that they can go in and out of our fenced yard whenever it suits them I am semi retired, so I have plenty of time to take care and look after your dogs. It gives me great pleasure watching them I have a dog door which enables the dogs to go in and out at their own pace. I generally can train them to use it within 10 minutes and then the yard is fully fenced in nice and big. We have water outside for them. Dogs tend to have a great time here

“Ona has been wonderful. I needed to find someone to help my father with his dog because of some health issues and she has been simply GREAT!! Her communication and reliability has been outstanding - especially because I’ve set this up from Colorado. It offers us so much peace of mind knowing we have someone to help walk Jax while my father recovers.”

About: I’ve been dogsitting since I was 18 years old. I love dogs of all sizes, and cats too! I’ll love them like my own fur baby ❤️ any questions feel free to ask! I’m currently working Wednesdays-Fridays from 7a-7p but open to other days! I like to live an active lifestyle and would love to bring your pet along with me to get a walk in during the day :) I have my own furbaby at home that loves walks, and would love to take yours on walks as needed. I can also pop in to play with them!

About: Whether it’s high energy dogs who need extra playtime, shy pets who need patience, or special needs animals who require careful attention, I adapt to meet them where they are. On top of that, I’m extremely communicative. I will send regular updates, photos, and am always responsive so you never have to wonder how your pet is doing. I know how important it is to feel at peace when you’re away, and I take that trust seriously. I will be in Summerfield, FL for the summer while home from college (up until August 15). I will be available Monday through Sunday 9am-9pm. I aim to maintain your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible — meals, walks, playtime, and even bedtime rituals — so they feel secure and relaxed while you're away. I treat your home with respect and keep everything clean, tidy, and just as I found it. I’m mindful about locking doors, managing lights, and following any specific instructions you leave.

About: Im in my 50's but Ive always loved animals since i was very young.. i was in 4-H as a teenager & thats when I started petsitting. When I was 28 i started my petsitting/housesitting business. I had that business for 20 years in Ohio. We moved here in 2019. I have continued my petsitting here & love what I do! My visits are about 30 minutes. I do feeding, watering, litter boxes, medications, insulin is okay also. I will bring in the mail and newspaper and water plants & fill birdfeeders. I enjoy walking dogs as well as playing with them in their yard. I am comfortable with many other pets including cats, Birds, fish ()I have a 40 gallon aquarium, & a 10 gallon) hamsters, gerbils (& other rodents) guinea pigs, ferrets, rabbits, iguanas and other lizards. Thank you so much! I also have experience with horses, ducks, goats & a few cows lol! Petsitting is my career so thats my priority. Visits are tailored to your pets needs. I like to schedule as far in advance as possible so I work my days off around what I have in the book. I tailor my visits according to your pet's needs. I can do as many visits per day as you would like. I can also stay longer if you need. When I do "housesitting " , its a bedtime visit, sleepover & morning visit before I head out for other clients. I will do as many drop-in visits as you would like during the day before I return for the overnight (housesit).

About: My life has always been surrounded my animals. They are my passion and they bring me pure joy! I have experience working with senior animals and puppies/kittens. I will treat and love your furry family members like they are my own. I also want to make your animal as comfortable and stress-free as possible, so your routine is very important to me, and I will stick by it! :) Im currently available to drop in for mornings, afternoons, or evening visits. I can board your animals at my house or I can do overnight stays so your animal is not out of their environment. I have a fenced in medium-sized yard. I own two medium sized dogs and one cat, which are up to date on their vaccinations and are very friendly. I have a dedicated spare room for your animals if they need to be in a crate. I also have a doggy camera if you would like to see your animals throughout the day. Let me know how I can accommodate your animals needs, I’m very flexible!
