Dog Walking Ybor City

About: I treat every pet like family and take the time to learn their unique personality, routine, and needs. I’m dependable, patient, and love keeping owners updated with photos and messages so they always know their pet is happy, safe, and well cared for. Pet care is something I truly enjoy and naturally make time for every day. Since I have a flexible schedule, I can give pets the attention, love, and consistency they deserve. I love going on walks, playing, cuddling, and making sure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and happy while their family is away. I know how much pets mean to their owners, so I treat every animal with the same patience, affection, and care that I would want for my own. My goal is for both pets and their owners to feel completely at ease, knowing they’re in loving and dependable hands. I care for every pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their family is away. I always follow each owner’s routine for feeding, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and any special instructions because I know consistency helps pets feel secure. I’m very active and love being outdoors. I walk my own dog every day, usually around the Riverwalk and Bayshore, and we average about 4 miles a day. Because of that, I’m happy caring for dogs that enjoy long walks, exercise, and plenty of playtime, while also understanding that some pets simply want companionship, cuddles, and a calm environment. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I make sure they receive lots of attention, affection, exercise, and regular updates so their owners can have peace of mind knowing their pet is happy and well cared for.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs/cats and have taken care of my neighbors or friends dogs for weeks at a time. I have extensive experience caring for dogs/cats, ranging from energetic pets to sweet senior pets. I’m good at managing them and attentive at reading their body language. I have been a passionate animal lover for over 16 years. I know how important it is to find someone you trust with your fur babies. I treat every pet in my care with the same love, patience, and attention I would give my own. I also volunteer at the humane society to be able to walk dogs. I work remote Mondays, Fridays, and sometimes Wednesdays, so your pet gets constant attention and frequent potty breaks. The days I don't work remote, Tuesdays, Thursdays, and sometimes Wednesdays, I am available in the evenings. You can reach out to me last minute and I can do my best to be available. I am available on the weekends unless noted on my calendar. When outside, your pet will always be securely leashed. I do not do off-leash walks or visit public dog parks unless explicitly requested and approved by you. My home is completely pet-proofed, with no exposed hazards and always keep doors secure. If you like your dogs crated at night I can do that as well. I also have one roommates who can also keep watch them if I ever have to run errands. I have a sweet resident cat who is very used to other animals. However, for total safety and comfort, I have plenty of space and can easily keep my cat in a completely separate room during your pet's stay. You will receive daily text and photo updates so you know exactly how your pet is doing, eating, and playing!

“Britni is super awesome!! Communicates super well and I feel confident my dog is well taken care of while I’m not there.”

About: Started dog-walking/-sitting in my pre-teens. Owned 3 dogs during this time (two part-Lab and one Great Dane. All rescues). Kept a small, growing business which consisted of walking or being paid to stay a week with a dog. This continued until early 20s. Have since continued to sit family's, friends', and family friends' dogs over the years. No matter the size or breed I always manage to find a friend in new dogs. Epileptic, old, and those requiring medicine are not a problem. Whether or not they adhere to commands isn't a problem. I've had very obedient dogs and known many that ran the house. Either way, we'll get along fine. I'm only out of the house for 6 hours at most. My old lady used to need a lot of attention, so I'm used to life revolving around a dog upon entry, before leaving, and taking a break every 30 minutes to give some love. Private back lawn. I have a designated spot in a public walkway for food and water but can move as needs depict. Doors to back rooms are shut when not being used. Nothing heavy or sharp that can fall or come in contact with your pet. I had a 17.5 year old so the house was made as safe as possible for her.

About: I've had fur babies for 14+ years now. Neighbors, friends and family members have trusted me with their love ones for periods of time and we have had an amazing connection and experience! I actually work from home with a very flexible schedule. This allows me to watch the furbabies closely everyday and help taking multiple breaks during the day. Also, very flexible on making visits during the day. I have big fenced yard where babies can run and enjoy time outside. Love walking, so if visiting your babies at your place, I'd more than happy to provide whatever amount of walking they need to reset. Happy to give them company and share trust with you that your babies and home will be safe once I leave.

“Izzy is the best! Very responsible, responsive and I can tell my pups love her. She showers them with treats (at my approval) and provides the best pics :)”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for decades and will treat your babies like the royalty they are. My home is their home when they are here. I’m home all day with my three babies, so I have the capacity to frequently take your kiddos on walks & playtime out in the fenced yard I have three dogs on my own that are friendly after getting acclimated to other visiting dogs. I have a completely separate room if needed for solitude while boarding.

“Kelsey was truly amazing! I hired her last minute after my previous walker moved, and she was incredibly accommodating, which meant so much since my dog is a newly adopted rescue. She was always on time, very responsive, and kept me at ease with her detailed report cards after each walk. It was clear that she treated Honey like her own dog and genuinely cared about her comfort and happiness. I’m so grateful to have found Kelsey and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate dog walker.”

About: My husband and I had a German shepherd for 13 years that we recently said goodbye to and have taken care of dogs/cats of all ages for friends and family. Great with seniors and big dogs. My husband grew up with 5 dogs in his household of all different breeds. Can administer medication and help with training if needed! I work from home twice a week and my husband is fully remote so between the two of us we will be home with your pup all day to watch them closely and ensure they are never alone. We live in a small pet friendly apartment in a walkable and pet friendly neighborhood. We have dog toys, enrichment toys, and dogs beds in the home but please bring your own if your pet prefers! We took our dog everywhere with us and know all the pet-friendly areas should your dog prefer spending most of their time outdoors.

I pay close attention to your pet’s individual needs and care routine. Their safety, comfort, and well-being always come first, and I’ll make sure they receive plenty of love, attention, and personalized care while you’re away.

About: I’m a huge dog lover with years of hands on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. I grew up around dogs (yorkies, maltese & pitbulls) and currently have a 9 year old Yorkie mix named Nori who is truly my world. Before moving to Florida in 2024, I worked at a doggie day camp for three years, where I cared for dogs in both group play and 1 on 1 settings. Their safety, happiness, and well-being were always top priority. Whether your pup needs a fun walk, feedings, medication taken or just some extra cuddles and attention while you’re away, you can count on me to treat them like one of my own. I look forward to meeting you and your furry best friend! I am a Pilates instructor who teaches mostly early mornings. Here is my current availability: Sundays & Wednesdays - mornings/afternoons/evenings Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays - late mornings/afternoons/evenings Saturdays - afternoons & evenings When caring for pets in my client’s home, I do my best to keep their routine as normal as possible.

“Nigel carried my "baby" home the other day because she couldn't make it back on her own. He let me know and checked back in with between visits to see if she was ok. I knew Nigel was special since he began helping me with my dog but he went above and beyond, carrying a 65 pound pit bull home instead of dragging her and using harsh commands. I'm so glad I found him! He is truly a gift.”

About: I’ve grown up around dogs and have years of experience caring for pets for my neighbors, friends, and family. I’ve helped with walking, feeding, playtime, bathing, and keeping pets company while their owners are away. I’m comfortable following specific routines and instructions, and I always make sure pets feel safe, loved, and well cared for. I’m dependable, patient, and will treat your pet like they’re my own.

I also make communication a priority and will keep you updated with photos and messages so you always know how your pet is doing. 🐾💕 Chanel is a big part of my daily routine! I make sure she’s fed, has a clean space, gets plenty of attention and playtime, and of course, lots of cuddles. She’s very social and loves being around people, so I’m used to having a pet as part of my everyday life. Caring for her has also taught me how important it is to be consistent with a pet’s routine and give them the attention they need. My apartment is a safe, clean, and comfortable space for pets. I’m very mindful about keeping doors and windows secure and making sure there aren’t things around that could be harmful to them.🤍🐈
