About: *Dog Trainer in training* -Certified in Pet CPR and First Aid from American Red Cross -Medication experience including pills, eye drops, syringes, injections, and subcutaneous fluids -Reactivity experience towards both humans and other dogs or small animals including on leash, with crate, new people, noises, and other triggers -Experience preventing escape and applying muzzles & various harnesses/collars/cones -Exotics experience including birds, reptiles, amphibians, inverts, rodents, rabbits, pigs and many other species -Genuine love and passion for ALL animals and a strong willingness to always put pet safety first Currently, I have 2 cats, 2 dogs, and several geckos that I rescued (my mom cares for them in my home when I am sitting so your pets have my full attention). One of the dogs was still a puppy who I trained myself, so I am quite comfortable and patient when it comes to all of the fun (and not so fun) side effects of puppies still learning. The other dog was incredibly reactive and I've been able to teach her to trust again and continue to work with her everyday. Trauma never goes away, so I fully understand that traumatized and reactive dogs will always require a special, attentive level of care. I have absolutely no fear of animals and will immediately put myself in the middle of a fight or potentially dangerous situation to save your pet. I'm not going to quit because your pet growled (although I will respect their space of course). Safety is my #1 priority. No one gets out of the front door (my cat is an escape artist so this is normal to me). I use a high quality professional dog utility belt with reinforced bungee leashes that attach to the belt to guarantee your dog can never escape while on a walk with me. I've learned so much patience, vigilance, and the ability to read dog body language very well. My energy is calm but confident, and pets tend to trust me quickly. I am open to caring for high needs babies that other sitters aren't equipped to handle. I know how stressful it is worrying about your babies when you're trying to enjoy a trip, so my goal is to make you and your pets 100% comfortable and confident with me. Now I have all of the flexibility and help with my own pets to be able to care for yours! I work from home with flexible hours and have the ability to take breaks whenever needed. I can flex my schedule to fit yours or your pet's! I am seeking regular walk clients throughout the week 😊 For dog walks, I have handled and walked dogs that weigh more than I do. I'm very active and while calm in nature, I can give verbal commands to make sure your dog doesn't do or eat anything they are not supposed to! I am flexible and can follow any route and/or special requests you have. And I always pick up the poop, of course. I've invested in a high quality dog walking belt with pull absorbing leashes that keeps your pups attached to me and makes it much easier and safer to walk multiple at a time. There is no possibility of them getting away on my watch! For drop-ins, I am extremely respectful of others' privacy and space. I am flexible and can meet your requirements of a perfect home visit for your furbabies while you are away. I will take plenty of photos and videos for you at each visit (20+) and I am known for providing at least few high quality framable professional photos. I can feed, water, let out, play with, scoop litter, and any other animal care that you need! I can even water your plant babies and bring in your mail too.
About: I grew up with dogs of my own, my daughters are just like me, and each one has their own dog and even sometimes more than one. I am the backup force when they are not available. Now that I am retired, I have time to enjoy with those lovely dogs. I am retired, and besides some routine grocery shopping and cooking, I am pretty much free on time and available to take care of the pets. I have a fenced backyard, your dog can run free, and I live alone with friendly neighbors used to pets around. I have an air-conditioned porch in case a crate is needed.

“I had so much fun with Alexandria! He is an energetic one and she makes sure that he gets to exercise that out when he’s with her. Whether it’s time in the dog park, laps around the complex, or even just playing inside the house. He definitely recommend her and will keep her in mind for the future.”

“Melissa T was just wonderful with Taco Bell She was very punctual on each visit, took Taco on some great walks and always sent photos & how he did on each walk Very friendly & professional We would have no problem highly recommending her for you pet needs”
“She is always great with my dog and sends lots of pics. Very good at communicating too. Informs me of my dogs interactions/behavior or if anything seems off. Been on a weekly schedule for 3 months now. She’s the best!”
“This was our first time using Rover and Elise was amazing! She kept great communication throughout both walks we scheduled for the day and sent us pictures to show us how happy the dogs were afterward. Great experience with Rover and with Elise!”
About: I’ve had my own dogs since I could remember. I absolutely love them and spending time going on walks or taking them to the dog park. I have free time on my hands now so what better way then to spend it with some sweet babies who need caring for. I used to take my dogs to boarding places when I left town and I hated it every time, so I hope I can give other pet owners a peace of mind knowing they are in good hands. I typically work about 7-3 and come home for my lunch breaks every day. I work 8 minutes from my house. Available for late afternoon walks and weekends I live in a 3 bedroom house by myself with a fenced in yard so there is plenty of space, I am located near downtown St. Pete.
“Lainey was wonderful at walking (and wearing out) both of active our labs! She sent photos and they loved her! Also she was able to be there for us to book last minute. Highly recommend her!”
About: As a dog owner myself, I strive to provide the best care for any animal! I love dogs and so does my 4 year old Dalmatian. I’m home all day and can provide whatever care your pups need. I have my own 4 year old Dalmatian, so I am used to and familiar with the time, effort and love it takes to care for your fur babies as well. I have a 4 year old Dalmatian who is very friendly and loves other dogs. We have an unfenced backyard for easy access to outside but also have a fenced dog park in my community.

“My dog adored, Julie because she sensed that Julie loves pets. Julie always went above and beyond in her service, and I highly recommend her to care for your pet.”
West and East Lealman dog parents share their Rover experiences
During our stay in St. Petersburg in an Airbnb, we sought a reliable dog care provider to assist us during our day-long absence. Daniel exhibited exceptional responsiveness, kindness, thoughtfulness, and care. Our pups thoroughly enjoyed their time under his supervision.
Lia is amazing!! She was super flexible and able to help me out with a very short notice request. It’s hard finding good, reliable, trustworthy help and after chatting with Lia, my mind was instantly at ease knowing I was leaving the care of my sweet pup in her hands—highly recommend!
Victoria provided exceptional care for my dog and consistently demonstrated reliability and professionalism. My pup was always genuinely happy to see her, which reflects the level of trust and attention she gave each visit. It was reassuring to know my dog was in capable and caring hands. I highly recommend her to anyone seeking a dependable and compassionate dog walker.
Tammy is AMAZING!!!! My dog Athena, absolutely LOVES her. She sent me multiple pictures everyday. Tammy also changed up Athena’s walk each time to keep her interested. One night Athena got sick and Tammy immediately jumped into action as well as calling me. That night, it really felt like she truly cared about her and wanted to help however she could. It made my trip a lot easier, knowing that Athena was in good hands. I am incredibly grateful to Tammy for everything she did and I look forward to using her again in the future.
Kylie and her business partner are warm amazing, people who really love animals. They walked my dog sasha daily for 2 weeks, as I recovered from surgery. They were highly responsive and communicative, and made sure sasha got taken care of and walked and return back very happy. They were also extremely responsible, because sometimes i'd have to adjust times and they would be diligent to make sure I am getting the correctly allotted time for each walk. I i highly recommend them.
