Dog Walking Virginia Gardens

About: My family has always had pets of all types and they are family to me. I have two small friendly dogs and walking, and playing with them is just what I love! I’ve taken care of many neighbors/ friend’s pets as well, at my house and theirs. Being a working from home mom I can also do drop ins at your home to check your pup is ok and let out during the day. I also offer doggy day care at my home, so your pup never needs to be alone. I live extremely close to Miami International airport and will happily work with you to coordinate drop off/ pick ups to make it hassle free. Working from home allows me to provide your pet with love and care all day. I have two small friendly dogs that love to play with other dogs, so your pup will enjoy lots of playtime and walks! There is no shortage of attention and love! My home provides a safe and secure environment for pets, complete with a fenced yard. I have two friendly dogs to play with and two children who love pets as much as me!

“Arianna is very sweet and caring with Ginger. She was patient to allow Ginger to warm up to her, and we greatly appreciate her cleaning up our home if there was an accident left behind. We do recommend her absolutely.”

“Priscilla was the best! She always answered my texts and sent pictures about what Nova was doing. She was always prompt and super flexible with time. I definitely recommend her!”

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have always had a natural love and connection with them. My experience includes walking and caring for dogs at an animal shelter, working at a dog hotel where I was responsible for the daily care and supervision of multiple dogs, and raising and caring for puppies and dogs of my own. I’m comfortable with dogs of all different sizes, personalities, and energy levels, and I understand how important it is for each dog to receive patience, attention, exercise, and individual care. I treat every dog as if they were my own and always want them to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they’re in my care. I have a day job from 9-5 but I’m flexible and am able to make pet care a consistent part of my daily routine. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting throughout the week after 5, and I’m happy to work around each pet’s individual routine and needs. I enjoy staying active and spending time with dogs, so caring for pets fits naturally into my day. I’m also reliable with schedules and make sure each dog gets the attention, exercise, and care they need. I am mostly available on weekends at any time. I care for every pet as if they were my own and always try to keep them comfortable and on their normal routine. In a client’s home, I follow their instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medication if needed, playtime, and any specific habits or preferences their pet has. I make sure they receive plenty of attention, exercise, and affection while also respecting their space. I’m responsible, attentive, and always make sure pets are safe and well cared for before I leave.

“Jaclyn was amazing, I could tell she really cared for my pets felt very safe leaving them in her hands. She was always very on time and sent me so many pictures 💗 We also had a large storm which caused some property damage and she kept me informed so we could start to handle from a distance. Would really recommend Jaclyn, I hope she is available for my times away in the future 💗”

About: I have experience with many different size and age dogs, since I have a big dog family at home. This comes with a lot of training as well. I’m very active, so I love to go on walks and runs with my dogs. I am a student, but my schedule is mostly flexible. I do spend some time at home and the time I’m not home, I’m in class. The weekends are free for me. I live in a pet-loving home, so there is no stress having a guest over! Dogs can be in their cage or if it is more comfortable to be without a cage that is perfectly fine as well. I also have the option of boarding or day care without my dogs.

About: I've shared my life with dogs and cats for as long as I can remember and currently have a young puppy after recently saying goodbye to my two beloved senior Bulldogs. Caring for animals has always been part of my daily life, and I genuinely enjoy spending time with pets of all ages and personalities. While I'm newer to formal pet sitting, I've cared for neighbors' dogs while they were traveling and understand how important consistency and trust are. As a registered nurse and self-employed professional, I'm dependable, detail-oriented, and respectful of your home. My focus is on drop-in visits where I can provide companionship, fresh food and water, potty breaks, walks if requested, medication when appropriate, and lots of love and attention. As a self-employed entrepreneur, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide reliable drop-in visits throughout the day. I can accommodate up to three visits daily for feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, medication (if needed), and plenty of attention. At this time, I specialize in drop-in visits and am not available for overnight house sitting. our pet's safety and comfort are always my priority. Since I specialize in drop-in visits, your pet can remain relaxed in the familiar surroundings of your home and maintain their normal routine. I carefully follow your instructions for feeding, medications, walks, litter box care, or any special needs, and I'll always make sure your home is secure before I leave. You'll receive updates and photos after each visit so you can have peace of mind while you're away.

“Excelente experiencia! Fue una persona muy responsable, amable y cuidadosa con mi Barney. La trató con mucho cariño, cumplió perfectamente con el paseo y me mantuvo tranquilo sabiendo que estaba en buenas manos. Sin duda volvería a contratarla y la recomiendo totalmente.”

About: I have taken care of both dogs and cats for family and friends for many years. I love being with animals and will do everything I can to make them comfortable and happy. I’m available for pet boarding daily all weekdays and weekends whenever I’m not at school. I’ll be sure to provide the best care that I can! I have a fenced yard and I live nearby the park so I can exercise and walk your dog however much they need. I also provide care for indoor cats and will keep them safe in my room until they’re confident that they can walk around. I give lots of treats, make sure all of their facilities are clean, and feed them as directed by the owner.

“Yanci took really good care of my baby while I was at work and he had a great long walk! She kept me informed and at ease the entire time too ☺️”

About: I truly love animals, especially the snuggly ones! I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and personalities, from tiny Chihuahuas to Great Danes and Bullies, and I love getting to know what makes each pet unique. I’m also comfortable caring for cats, including hypoallergenic and lower-allergen breeds. My daughter is allergic to cats, so I’m familiar with being thoughtful about allergy-friendly environments and routines. I have experience giving pets medication and following specific feeding and care instructions. I previously made homemade dog food for a Bully using organ meats, vegetables, and grains, so I’m very comfortable with special diets, meal preparation, and pets who need a little extra attention. Birds are close to my heart as well. I’ve cared for parrots and had my own cockatiel for 18 years. He lived to be 21 years old, so I understand the patience, consistency, and specialized care birds require. One important note: I have a severe flea allergy, so pets must be current on appropriate flea prevention before staying with me or receiving care in my home. Most of all, I want pets to feel safe, comfortable, loved, and spoiled while their people are away. Whether your pet wants walks and playtime or would rather curl up next to me for snuggles, I’m happy to follow their lead. I’m a self-employed single mom to a 13-year-old, so I have a flexible schedule and can easily work pet care into our daily routine. Animals are very therapeutic for both of us, and having them around feels natural and comforting in our home. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, medications, playtime, and any special instructions. I keep the environment calm, clean, and comfortable, and I always take time to let pets adjust at their own pace. Safety is very important to me, so I pay close attention to doors, gates, leashes, food restrictions, and anything else specific to your pet. I also believe in good communication and will keep you updated so you can feel comfortable knowing your pet is being well cared for.

“Maya is thoughtful and compassionate! I am glad she is able to walk Halas. Maya is communicative and keeps me posted regarding her schedule and how my little guy is doing!”

About: I've been a dog owner for my entire life and have learned how to care for them in a way that best supports their needs and happiness. Not all dogs are created equal which means not all of them have the same needs and I understand that as a dog owner myself. I have experience taking dogs on walks, bathing them, playing with them, feeding them to meet their individual dietary needs, and responding to their body language to better help make them comfortable. As a dog owner, this is a role I have taken on from a very young age. Besides being a dog owner myself, I've provided pet care for family members pets of all ages and sizes! I see dogs as part of the family and understand they need love, care, and attention! I am available to care for pets throughout the week and the weekend. Whether you need a pet sitter to walk your dog in the middle of your work day or while you're on a day trip on a weekend! I care for pets in your home by staying as close to their routine as possible so that trust can be built with them and me. This means, staying on schedule for feeding and walking times and playing with them in the same ways that you would!

About: I’ve been around pets my whole life. I’ve been caring for cats and dogs since I was a child, and they’ve always been a big part of my family. Over the years, friends, family, and even people I didn’t know at first have trusted me with their pets after hearing about me through others. Taking care of animals truly brings me joy, and I love making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and, of course, get plenty of love and cuddles! My schedule is very flexible. I've time to take care of your pets whenever you need it. I'm always available during week days and some weekends I have many things to play with them, your pet will never be bored! I will always follow the instructions given on how to feed your pet and each of them will have a container to eat in the case is needed it. In any case, if there is any other specific instruction for your pet needs please let me know in advance.

About: I have had pets in my home my whole life until my dog recently passed away. I was reluctant of letting in another because I didn’t want to go through the grief all over again. Recently, I have had a feeling to help out as many animals as I can. Don’t be sad it’s over, be happy it happened!!! I want to give these babies love and support no matter the cost. I do this by volunteering at the shelter, and hopefully being able to take care of your pets through Rover!!! I am available whenever needed! I am a full time student with a flexible schedule. I will work around the times that fit your needs. I take dogs out for walks, babysit, and take them on day trips to stimulate themselves. I know bigger dogs especially get stressed out so I like to get them moving. I have toys available and a big land for them to play.

About: I’ve been around and cared for animals for most of my life. In high school, I was part of the Veterinary Science Magnet Program at Felix Varela, where I earned my CVA certification and studied veterinary science and animal care. I also spent around three years training dogs through the program. During my senior year, I completed an internship at a veterinary clinic, where I got about two years of hands-on experience working as a vet tech. I fostered throughout high school and for a while after, which gave me experience caring for pets with different personalities, behaviors, and needs. I have experience with pets of all different sizes and ages and I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, bathing, basic training, and of course giving them plenty of attention and love. Having pets of my own, I know how important it is to have someone you trust taking care of them. I currently work part-time and am also in school, but I have a flexible schedule that gives me plenty of time for pet care. I’m available throughout the week for walks, drop-ins, feeding, playtime, and other care depending on what you and your pet need. I always follow each pet’s normal routine and any instructions provided by their owner. I pay close attention to feeding schedules, medications, leash safety, doors and gates, and any behavioral or medical concerns. I’m comfortable caring for pets with different personalities and needs, and I make sure they feel safe and comfortable while in my care. I’ll also treat your home with the same care and respect I would my own.
