Dog Walking West Shore Palms

About: I have a cat of my own that is a rehabilitated stray. She’s got a few medical issues, but having her has taught me a lot about anxious/aggressive animal tendencies and the best way to care for them. My friends and family also have a lot of different pets so I’ve been exposed to many different animal personalities/breeds. I have a pet bearded dragon as well! So even reptile care is familiar to me. My schedule changes weekly; I’m currently working a waitress job. My shifts aren’t very long, about 6 hrs - so I will be available sporadically throughout the day and evening, depending on what times I work. I can provide services inside my own home, or care for pets in theirs! Whatever works best. However I do have a pet cat of my own and I’m located in an apartment complex - just a heads up! Just provide any routines/care guidelines they need and I’m good to go.

“Allexus always takes such great care of my fur babies! Definitely recommend her.”

“David did an amazing job! He took excellent care of my dog while we were enjoying our vacation at Busch Gardens. He was punctual, communicated clearly throughout the entire process, and gave me complete peace of mind knowing my dog was in great hands. I would absolutely recommend David to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy pet sitter/walker and I definitely plan to use his services again the next time I’m in the area!”

“Shelby was awesome. He took such great care of my chihuahua while I was away, even though my pup can be… A LOT. He kept me in the loop the whole time with photos and updates, which made being away so much easier. You can tell he really cares and knows what he’s doing. Super reliable, super kind, and honestly just great to work with. Highly recommend Shelby to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and phenomenal with pets. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I can remember. Many people I know, don’t fail to notice how caring, gentle, and playful I am with not only pets but with everyone else as-well. I have experienced dogs who are old, anxious, energetic, weak, shy, lovey, and everything in between. Since I was two, I would take care of my childhood dog as if he were my own baby. I’m currently attending college classes and as of right now have extra time to make money and try new things! I am available everyday except Tuesdays or Thursdays! I live in a gated apartment, that has a walking trail within. There is lots of greenery and sometimes other dogs around. I also live 8 minutes away from a dog park where I spend lots of my time walking or running. As far as being in your home, I will abide by the rules and follow what I am being told, in terms for what is best for the dog and everyone else. I will also make the experience fun and your pet will be in great hands.

“Valerie did a wonderful job walking Ruby. Very prompt daily and excellent daily reports. Excellent communication. Would definitely hire again.”

About: I’ve always been someone friends can count on when they need an extra hand with their pets, whether that’s going for walks, checking in, or keeping them company while they’re away. I have experience with dogs of different ages and energy levels, from walking and playing with puppies to looking after older dogs who need a little more patience and a slower pace. I grew up around both dogs and cats and am comfortable learning the routines and personalities that make each pet different. I don’t currently have pets of my own, so I love getting the chance to spend time with animals while giving their owners someone dependable and attentive they can trust. My schedule allows me to be flexible with afternoon (after 4pm) and evening walks, and I’m happy to accommodate both occasional help and regular weekly walks. I’ll keep my Rover availability up to date so you can easily see when I’m available! I’ll always follow the instructions you provide and take the time to get to know your dog. I’m attentive on walks, respectful of your home and belongings, and will make sure your dog is safely settled back in before I leave.

“Danielle did a fantastic job with Luna. She was timely, great with communication, and provided a lot of photos throughout their walk. She was very friendly and someone would I would definitely use again in the future! Would highly recommend!!”

“Jordan did a great job updating me and sending very cute pictures of my pup! Marlin is a ball of energy and she did a great job getting some of his energy out. She was very easy to work with as well :)”

About: I’ve always loved animals and have experience caring for pets for friends, family, and others who needed someone they could trust. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, litter box care, and giving pets lots of attention and affection. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I’m patient with animals who may be shy or need extra time to warm up. I’ll always treat your pet like they’re my own and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. My schedule gives me plenty of time to provide pets with the attention and care they need. I’m available throughout the week and can make time for walks, feeding, playtime, check-ins, and lots of attention. I’m also flexible and happy to work around each pet’s normal routine. I always make sure pets are in a safe, comfortable, and clean environment. I follow the owner’s instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any specific routines they have. I’m very attentive and will make sure your pet gets plenty of love and care while you’re away.

About: I have always had a love for animals. Growing up with many pets and working at a doggy daycare and animal hospital, I have experience with all kinds of breeds, big and small. I work a 9-5 Monday through Thursday and work from home on Fridays. I always take a walk before or after work and would love to be joined by a furry friend. I always make sure pets go outside at least four times a day and allow an hour a day for playtime/walks. I make sure to feed pets morning and night or follow special instructions left by the owner.

“Nena was one happy pup when I came home from my trip! Lucas was very accommodating, easy to work with, had great communication throughout my trip. Every picture I got from him showed Nena smiling ear to ear! 😁”

“If I could give more stars I would. Piercen came to walk my baby girl at a very short notice and I appreciate him so much for that. He kept me up to date on everything. He’s great!!”

About: I have extensive experience caring for dogs and cats of all temperaments and ages, I provide personalized care that meets each pet's unique needs. For Dogs: I'm passionate about long, engaging walks and active play that help your pup expend energy and stay physically and mentally stimulated. Whether working on training basics or simply providing adventure, I ensure every outing is both fun and fulfilling. For Cats: I create calm, nurturing environments where felines feel secure yet encouraged to explore. I understand cat behavior and body language, allowing me to build trust with even the shyest companions. I love animals and am committed to treating every pet as family. Your companion's safety, comfort, and happiness are my highest priorities. I am available on weekends and have flexibility with work since I work remotely for several days throughout the work week. Additionally, I am a morning person so I can take dogs for sunrise walks if needed. Your pet's safety and well-being are non-negotiable priorities in every aspect of care I provide. In Your Home: I maintain your pet's established routines, keep your home secure, and stay vigilant about potential hazards. I provide regular photo updates to keep you connected while you're away. On Walks: Dogs remain on secure, appropriate leashes at all times. I'm constantly aware of surroundings, traffic, and other animals, choosing safe routes suited to your dog's temperament. With Cats: I ensure all entry points are secure, respect their boundaries, and follow feeding and medication schedules precisely. I'm knowledgeable about feline safety and keep them away from any hazards. Emergency Preparedness: I have a clear action plan for emergencies and will immediately contact you and your veterinarian if any concerns arise. Communication: Transparency builds trust. I provide regular updates and openly discuss any behavioral observations or concerns. Your companion's safety isn't just a job, it's a promise to you.

About: I've had my own dog for 11 years now, before that I grew up with a family chocolate lab. I've always had dogs in my life and my sister is a vet so I've experienced a lot and learned a lot. I would never let a dog get hurt! I treat dogs like humans :) I know what to do in many different situations because I've had experience with dogs my entire life, big and small. My boyfriend and I have watched a dog overnight for 2 weeks before. Our dog, Piper is nice and relaxed and gets along well with others. She loves having a friend around like she did when I was in college living with my roommate who had a Maltese. Day to day: I wake up at 7, walk my dog, then feed her. We hang out, I might go run some errands and puppy proof the apartment before I leave. I'll come back and let her out again. At night I let her out once after I feed her at 7, so about 8:30, then once more before I go to bed. I play with my dog a lot and she likes to snuggle. I would do all these things for your dog and anything else you request! My schedule is flexible, so I can fit walks into your dog’s routine with ease. I’m based in South Tampa and happy to travel up to 45 minutes. I keep my bookings consistent and reliable, and I’ll always show up on time and ready to give your pup a great walk. Since I offer dog walking, I come to you and care for your dog in their own familiar environment. I follow your instructions on leashing, routes, and routine exactly. Safety is my top priority: I keep your dog leashed, avoid hazards, stay alert to their body language, and never put them in a situation that feels off. My sister is a vet, so I know how to spot when something is wrong.
