Dog Walking University Square

About: Since childhood I have always been the one tasked with taking care of the family pets and then the neighborhood pets. I am an attentive walker and can't wait to sit your pets! I do gig work so I am available to whomever reaches out first. I have used dog walkers for many years and would love to provide the same service back for others! I pay attention to details and any notes or directions you leave. I have reliable transportation and plenty of experience with dogs. No pet will be left unhappy in my care.

“C.C was right on time and very easy to communicate with,shes kind and seems extremely knowledgeable about animals, I’d highly recommend her! She was very patient with our senior dog.”

“I highly recommend Ava! She was punctual, communicated well, and gave me peace of mind knowing my pet was in great hands. I wouldn't hesitate to use her services again or recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy dog walker.”

“Jamie is absolutely amazing! My dog absolutely adores her and she goes above and beyond to provide the best care. She is great at communicating and is incredibly professional. We have used her for dog walking services and I can't recommend her enough!”

“AJ has been walking both of our cane corsos for a few months - they are large and one of them takes a while to warm up to people. Through the whole process he has been patient, kind, and respectful and has gained the full trust and friendship of my big pups. He goes out of his way to make them comfortable and they just LOVE his walks, visits, and belly rubs. I couldn’t recommend AJ more.”

About: I started caring for dogs by the age of 13. Since then, I have been a reliable and safe pet sitter. I have grown up and taken care of larger dogs, which is where most of my experience has come from. I have cared for little and medium-sized dogs. I love quality time with the animals. Pet-sitting isn't just about letting them out and feeding them; it's about quality time. All dogs have a unique personality, and I love learning about who they are. That way, even when you're away, they are not alone. Hi Tampa furry pet owners! I am transitioning to college within the next month! I will be a full time college student, but i have a lot of open time between classes and only have two classed per day. That being said, I have plenty of time in the in-between of other activities to spend time with the animals. I will be looking at getting a job eventually, but until then, I have a lot of time for your furry animals. I work and live my best life with a schedule, so its no hassle to add in a furry animal in the mix! In the client's home, I will make sure all doors and fences are locked before and after my time over at the place. Lights will be off unless told otherwise. It will only be me in your home with your pets for safety purposes. All rules and directions will be followed, and I am not hesitant to reach out and ask questions because your pet's well-being and safety is important to me.

“Annaliese was so patient with me! After a last minute cancellation she was able to provide care for my puppy. Super understanding and seemed like my pup really enjoyed her time with her. Thank you!”

About: Hey everyone! I have always loved animals of all varieties since a very little girl. I've had a lifetime of experience around animals & pride myself of giving them as much love & care as I can. I grew up in the UK where my dad owned a farm... I would spend my days taking care of our pets, farming duties etc. I have experience from cats, dogs, sheep, chickens, horses, bunnies, rats and everything in between... they were our family, not food! I even studied animal care for a while & got to work with many exotic animals, caring for Tigers, Cheetahs & other big cats, reptiles, amphibians, snakes and more. I have 3 cute kitties with my husband here in Tampa (A tuxedo "Pudge", Orange Tabby "Louie" & Grey Tabby called "Rex/Noodle". But I adore all animals & pets with all of my heart! I have some certificates in Pet Sitting, Dog Walking, Pet Nutrition, Pet Psychology, as taking care of pets & wildlife has always been a passion of mine. All pets deserve the very best! I would absolutely love to be considered & help you in your daily life to care for your precious babies! 💕🐾 I am very flexible, available 7 days a week & would love to help care for your babies no matter their needs. Always available to discuss any schedule needs you may have! :) I always strive to provide the very best care possible for all pets and wildlife under my care & responsibility. I will always go above and beyond to make sure they are happy, loved & their everyday needs are met.

“Cheyanne is just amazing, Kylo is such a high energy handful and she knows just how to handle him. Always thankful for her”

About: I’ve had dogs since I was a little girl, and we got our first cat just a few years ago but they’ve seem to have fallen in love with me lol. My main concern is making sure your pet is happy and comfortable, doesn’t matter the situation. I’m very gentle with them and I always make sure to communicate or ask when necessary, I don’t want to assume and be wrong or not inform you if something happens. **Please do not book boarding for the weekend if your pet cannot handle being alone for 12-13 hours (in regards to going to the bathroom), as I work every weekend** I am in college and I work full time. I typically work 3-12 hour shifts a week, but my class schedule is more flexible. Please just ask if a date/time works and I will let you know! I’m in an apartment so I don’t have a lot of space inside. The complex does have a little fenced in dog area, and there are some dog parks in the area that I would be willing to go to if you have a more active pet. I don’t have anything toxic in the apartment, or in a place they could reach at least (medicines/rubbing alcohol, that sort of stuff). I also like going on longer walks, 20-30 min if the weather is nice.

“Lauren did a fantastic job with walking my pet and she made me feel at ease. I loved how well she communicated with me. The most important impact was how she interacted with my dog. Her calm spirit helped my dog so much! Thank you for helping my precious dog and our family. 💯 appreciated this wonderful experience using Rover for the first time.”

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 10. I went through the vet program in high school where I learned how to professionally take care of unfamiliar dogs. I have also owned my own pups too. For my services i also have the additions of baths and training which can be arranged and the meet and greet. The baths include nail clipping/grinding, teeth cleaning and ear cleaning. I’m currently working part time so I have plenty of time to walk and play with your furry friends while they are in my care. Safety is the main priority. When it comes to walks, drop ins, and house sitting I make sure to leave your home and your pet exactly how I found them (or better!) When your pets are in my house I never leave them alone uncrated or without water.

“Jasmine has been AMAZING with taking my dog baby on walks during the week when I work! It has been such a help since I have longer work day. She is trustworthy and always gentle and caring of my dog. She goes above and beyond to even defend and make sure she is safe!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for over 2 years, but truly my love for animals started as a kid. Neighbors, friends, and family have always trusted me to walk, feed, and bathe their pets. I’m comfortable with puppies, senior pets, and even pets with special needs. My goal is always to make your furry family member feel safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. I’m available on weekends and weekdays. perfect for boarding, walks, or drop-in visits. I love making time every day to care for animals, so your pets will always get the attention they deserve. I provide a safe and loving environment with a fenced yard and my daughter loves pet. I’m happy to crate your pet if needed and always supervise outdoor playtime. Whether in my home or yours, I make sure every pet is treated like family, with lots of love, play, and cuddles.

About: I’ve loved animals ever since I was little. I have a mischievous rescue chihuahua named Bolt and a sweet hearted chiweenie named Louie. They’ve been family members for over 7 years now. I have also volunteered at the SPCA taking care of their puppies and older dogs. I am currently working part time and am available to care for your animals most mornings and afternoons. I am usually available weekends as well! I live in a townhouse with plenty of room for animals with a park nearby. Most of the services I offer are drop ins, but I am very attentive to the details and instructions provided by my customers.

About: I’m a dogs best friend, I like walking and being outside as much as they do! I grew up in a dog household and then began caring for dogs in clients homes for over 15 years now. I’ve taken care of 5 dogs, 5 cats and 15 rabbits at one time in one household before! I’ve never trained my own pets but I’ve assisted with training by enforcing the clients training commands and wishes. Im in good shape and can hike or go for extra long walks if you have an active animal. I’ll love and treat your dog as if it were my own. I think dogs are the best listeners and I love to mirror their unconditional love. I have several references to put you in contact with per request. I have a flexible schedule right now and would love to fill my open hours with pet visits and dog walking. I’m often available for last minute bookings. I have a fully fenced in backyard available for your dog to run. I do not have my own crates so a crate would need to be provided if necessary.

About: With a lifelong passion for animal welfare, I bring extensive, hands-on experience to pet care. Having personally raised two cats and two dogs from their earliest stages as kittens and puppies, I possess a deep, intuitive understanding of the unique developmental needs, patience, and specialized attention required at every life stage. Beyond my personal experience, I have long served as the go-to pet sitter for my family and friends, building a reputation for reliability, compassion, and unwavering dedication. Whether navigating complex feeding routines, managing energy levels, or providing gentle, nurturing companionship, I treat every animal as if they were my own. My approach combines professional diligence with the heartfelt devotion that comes from a genuine love for animals, ensuring that every pet in my care feels safe, happy, and truly cherished while their owners are away. As an active online student, my schedule is naturally flexible, allowing me to provide high-quality, on-demand pet care. I specialize in one-time, high-attention visits that offer families total peace of mind when their regular routines are interrupted. Because my academic workload shifts weekly, I am excellent at communicating my upcoming openings and maintaining a reliable, professional standard for every single visit. I am eager to provide tailored, loving care for your pets whenever your needs arise. My care philosophy is centered on consistency, safety, and individual connection. Whether I am in my own home or yours, I maintain a structured, calm environment that prioritizes the pet's well-being above all else. For Client-Home Visits: I prioritize keeping the pet’s routine exactly as they know it. Before any visit, I conduct a thorough 'pet briefing' to understand their unique personality, favorite play styles, specific dietary needs, and any health protocols. I treat your home and your pet with the utmost respect, ensuring that I am not just 'checking in,' but providing meaningful enrichment and companionship. With experience raising my own pets from infancy, I am highly attentive to environmental hazards and subtle changes in behavior. I am dedicated to maintaining a clean, secure space and providing undivided attention throughout my time with your pet.My goal is to provide a seamless experience where your pet feels safe, engaged, and truly loaded even if it is just for a single, high-quality visit.
