Dog Walkers in Tavernier, FL

About: Recently moved back to Islamorada. 6 years I used to work as a Kennel Attendant, and Groomer's Assistant. Supervising and cleaning up after dogs big and small, While I know the job can sometimes be challenging, I also know how rewarding it can be. I walk daily on my own so exercise and being active would be no problem to incorporate, I have experience working with even the biggest of dogs and letting them know who's Alpha. I am sensitive to dogs needs regarding hot pavement, and would work to do my best to keep them in shaded or softer areas for walking. Since I worked as an attendant and bather, a simple bath and brush would be easy to arrange if shampoo and towels are available and your pet feels safe having a stranger do it. I would love being able to provide that little extra to make your dog feel like a personal client and special friend. I work a rather unpredictable schedule, but often have off weekends, where I'm home almost the entirety of the day if you check with me I can best let you know if I can host your pup. I care for a very very nice dog named Finley who would love a friend to hang out with, we have an outdoor porch and a big grassy yard, and I stay close by, playing with toys between chores or cuddling while watching a movie. There are also parks around if you feel comfortable having your pup come with me on a longer walk or to socialize with others. I am looking for more even tempered dogs to host but good playful energy is welcomed if they get along with others.

About: Hi!!! I have years of experience being around dogs and cats! I have a 3 year old hyper pitbull and an older kitty myself. My dog Lucy has severe allergies so I give her daily medications, feed her a special diet, bathe her often, exercise her, and I make sure she is healthy. In between all that there’s lots of playing and love sessions. I have experience pet sitting other doggies, kitties and guinea pigs as well. I also have experience working in a pet daycare. I love animals and I love being around them. Animals love me and feel very comfortable with me as well. I currently have two pet sitting clients in my neighborhood. My schedule is pretty flexible. I prefer to work during the weekdays but i don’t mind weekends either! I always make sure to check with the owner for all instructions and schedule for the pet’s feedings, medications, grooming, potty time, and exercise. I also make sure there’s playtime and lots of love!!!

“Lovely young lady! Patient, flexible and very knowledgeable. My new rescue is not an easy pup. He has trust issues and can be intimidating but she handled him like a real pro! Walking two dogs together is always a challenge for me but she did it beautifully. I trust her fully and highly recommend her.”

About: Hello! Are you looking for an experienced pet sitter/ walker? well I’m that person! I’ve work with a variety of different animals, in ERs, surgery, internal medicine and in zoos and aquariums as a licensed vet tech. I am the friend everyone calls when they need animal advise or help. I would love to be able to care for your pets as well. Sorry I don’t book more than 2 months ahead of time. Let me know if you need a last minute walk or pet sit and I’d be happy to see if I can help. I currently have a flexible schedule but do work shifts that are 6-8 hours long. I do not provide constant care, I will only be able to care for dogs that can be left alone for at least 6 hours. Let’s chat and figure out what you need and how I can help you and your pets! I can not currently watch dogs in my own home but am able to come stay with them in yours. I can stay overnight and be there for them or come for long visits throughout the day which is better for you and them.

“Lauren was great! She walked my pup for multiple days in a row, had great communication throughout. I definitely recommend Lauren and will absolutely book with her again!”
