Dog Walking in Swannanoa, Lakeland, FL

“Sue has been talking excellent care of my dog Hines while I am at work, he loves going on walks with her and seems very happy when I get home!”

About: My name is Kat and I’ve been taking care of pets since I was around 10. I care for all animals small and large and I have two dogs and a cat of my own! I am a college student wanting to spend more time with animals as I’m away from my own fur babies. I am free on most weekends and every Tuesday and Thursday. I love being around animals especially that I’m in college and away from my own animals. I have always been a firm believer to let pets approach you first. I know there are many gentle giants out there and I don’t want to scare anyone’s fur baby! I have been a sitter for animals that are crate trained and not, so it’s up to the owners preference and the animals needs.

“Steven is the best person to have as your pet caretaker. Very responsible and an outgoing person that is ready for any thing brought his way. No challenge with deter him away from what is needed of him. A great person with the best smile on his face at all time :D”

“Melanie is doing an awesome job and Bella loves her!”

About: We always had 3 dogs in the house growing up. Everything from jack russells, labs, Rhodesian ridgebacks, and yorkies. I currently have 2 border collies of my own. My old man is 9 and my baby is 1. I am currently in between jobs so I have plenty of time to play with your pups! I am available weekdays 7am-5pm and by appointment on the weekends. I have a fenced yard and 2 fur babies to keep your pup company! My pups are well mannered, social, and love company. The more dogs the merrier!

“I have known Debra for over 10 years. She loves animals and nature. She takes exceptional care of her fur babies. I would highly recommend her to anyone who loves their pets!”

“Briane is a compassionate, loving, strong and very dependable individual, She has animals of her own and I can tell you that she works and lives for them, they are her family.”

“I’m Tyler’s wife and his love for pets has always been so evident. He’s watched dogs ever since high school and misses being able to do so. Since being married we’ve wanted to get pets of our own so badly but want to spend a little time caring for others’ pets before we adopt our own! If you give us the opportunity to shelter/care for your pet, we promise they’ll be our best friend and that we’ll be theirs during their time.”

“Great response time and professional communication. My dog and I were very happy.”

About: I take care of all sorts of animals. I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, fish, turtles, and even snakes! I love caring for sorts of animals. I attend FSC. I do babysitting in the community as well so the earlier the requests the better! I am available everyday except tuesdays and thursdays until after 6 I love cuddling and giving pets. I’ve trained dogs in basic commands, such as sit or lay, before and find it fun. I’m no stranger to crates or kennels.

“Cyd was great with Lucy, Cyd took one of lucy's toys on the walk with them. I am overly protective of Lucy and I know Cyd will take care of my precious Lucy.”

“Jennifer (JJ) is an animal whisperer. My cat normally doesnt like anyone but me, but even she lets JJ love on her. Animals just seem to be very comfortable with her. She is very organized and dedicated to anything she does and would be a great fit for caring for your fur babies.”

“Over the years of knowing Abby I have seen her do great things with all animals and is very trustworthy to watching your animals. Dogs cats horses fish etc etc”

“McKenna has watched my 2 puppies and did a fantastic job. She kept me informed and sent me pictures while I was gone. I did not have any stress at all leaving them with her. I will be booking her again in the future. She is also great with cats / kittens, can administer medicine and more. She does a great job!”

About: I’ve taken care of my dog for the past 11 years, and I’ve also done dog-sitting for my neighbors, as well as for family and friends. I can administer medication to most dogs if they need it. I’m currently a college student working a part-time, but I have a lot of free time throughout the day. My availability is mostly mornings and early afternoons. My sister (Annie) and I are both using this same account in case one of us has a different availability :) I have a fenced backyard and lots of greenery in my front yard as well as two dogs, a Rottweiler and a mixed chihuahua dog! They’re well-behaved, and have their own beds/cages if you’d feel more comfortable they don’t interact with your pups.

“Kathleen has been caring for my 8 year old pug, Bella, for two years now. Kathleen watches her while I"m at work, as I work very long hours, and also on the weekends for overnights if need be. Bella loves being at Kathleen's house and I'm positive it is a reflection of all the love, care, and inclusion that Bella receives when she is there. It is hard for me to leave Bella with just anyone because she is a diabetic. She eats special food, can't have treats, and needs insulin injections twice a day. Kathleen handles all of this with grace and I feel completely confident that Bella is safe with her! I am confident she would be amazing with the care of anyone's pet because of the love and care she has shown my Bella.”

“Ashley was always our “go to” pet sitter. We have a “special needs” cat and 2 others that are on medications. Her experience as a Registered Veterinary Technician, along with her strong work ethic and compassion for animals, made leaving home for a few days so much easier.”

“Amber is an overall good person. She loves animals. She treats them as if they are her own pet. If Amber has a goal in mind she accomplishes it.”

“Stephanie G is an animal lover and is great with them. She has a big heart and is very trustworthy and caring. She will give your babies the same care as you would give them yourself. She has stayed in my home and taken care of my “zoo” and I have no complaints. I have dogs, cats, Guinea pigs, birds and a turtle. She had no problem following all of my feeding instructions for each of them. They were very happy and healthy when I returned. I would definitely recommend her and call on her again to care for my babies. Patty Y”
