The nation's largest network of 5-star pet sitters and dog walkers

My name is Sharon McAllister, and I live in east Bradenton near SR 70/SR 64 and I-75. Like everyone on DogVacay, I'm a total dog lover and a real sucker for their furry little faces. I have had a dog in my life since I was a teenager and currently have 4 of my own that range from 9 pounds to 60 pounds (ages 6 to 14). And if it wasn't for my husband putting his foot down, I'd probably have one or two more. Like most dog owners, I feel like my dogs are part of the family (because, of course, they are!), and if they could talk--I mean, if we could understand them--they'd tell you that they're treated that way. Truth be told, though, they're probably treated better than family, and whenever we bring a new one into the fold, you'll even hear my husband telling them, "You don't know it yet, but you just won the doggy lotto."

I have decided to dog sit outside my home only because my husband and I believe it would be easier on not only your dog, but on ours, as well, since we have so many. But please rest assured and know that just as I'll treat your dog as if he were my own, I'll treat your home the same way. I guarantee that your property and your privacy will be completely respected. I don't smoke, so you don't have to worry that I'll try to corrupt your baby. ;) I do work a full-time job during the week off Fruitville near I-75, but if you're close enough to my office, I'd be able to head home during my lunch hour to give your little one some attention, some time to see to his personal needs, as well as a midday snack. And when I'm not working, my time will be spent doing everything I can to make sure your dog dreads seeing you come home, but only because he's enjoyed his time with me so much! But seriously, I know it's never easy to go away and leave your pet, especially if you're looking at boarding him someplace where he'll be caged up the better part of the day. I hope you'll feel better about leaving him knowing he's happier being in his own environment surrounded by the things that he loves and that comfort him, and that he's in excellent and loving hands.

So whether you have a dog who suffers with separation anxiety and you just need someone to calm him with a little Rescue Remedy and some attention while you go out for a few hours, or whether you need someone to stay with him while you go on a much-needed vacation, I hope you'll give me the opportunity to meet you both so that I can put your mind at ease about leaving him with me. I promise that as soon as you do, you will know he couldn't be in better hands.

If you decide to book with me--and I hope you do!-- and you have more than one dog, be sure and contact me before booking so that I can send you a custom quote. I only charge $5 for each additional dog, whereas DogVacay is going to charge you $35 for each dog.

Thank you so much for reading my profile. If you have any questions or concerns at all, please don't hesitate to share them with me. I look forward to meeting you and your pooch or pooches soon!

I have one dog, Lily, who just turned 11. She is very friendly and quite energetic for her age. I do have experience with multiple dogs. One of my dogs passed away 1 year ago so would love to care for you pets and I am sure Lily would love to have some dog friends again! Lily has a lot of anxiety, so I am very comfortable with special needs and administering medicine. Let me know if you have any special requests and I will try to accommodate them! Look forward to hearing from you and your pet!

When I was a teenager, I frequently walked dogs and dog/cat sat for friends. My church members always chose me to take care of their pets when they went away.

I've had the pleasure of being owned by several cats and dogs since I was a child. I have recently had the privilege of working as an Animal Care Specialist at a non-profit shelter in Manatee County. I plan to stay in the field as a volunteer dog walker and cat cuddler. I have also volunteered as pet transport for various dogs.

Additionally, I have stayed overnight at several coworkers' homes and watched their dogs, cats, and even rabbits!

I enjoy being outside and would love to take your dog to the dog beach and to various nature trails, such as Robinson Preserve and De Soto Point. I also enjoy the air conditioning on these humid Florida days and would love to snuggle up on the couch and watch a good movie with your dog!

My name is Heidi. I'm 32 years old and a mother to many; including my 6 year old son Caleb, two dogs Penny and Betty, and two cats Sephia and Skittles. All the animals get along with each other famously including the little human :)
Our pets also are very good with other animals as well.
I am a very loving, compassinate and gentle person and have had animals my entire life. I do have a full-time job at a pediatric dental office, I have been employed there for 8 years. I work Monday-Thursday 7:30am to 5:00pm (I can make a stop to check in on your pet during my lunch break if distance allows) and I work Fridays from 8:00am - 12:00pm. I'm off from the dental office on the weekends.
If your pet(s) were to come and stay at my house I have a 3 bedroom house (1,200 Sq. ft.) and a HUGE backyard! They are free to roam the house and sleep wherever their little hearts desire unless you prefer otherwise.
I am looking forward to this new journey and making new friends along the way!

My husband and I have both taken care of dogs our entire lives. We know it's difficult to leave your furbaby in someone else's care.

That's why we do our very best to make you and your pup feel completely comfortable in our care. We both work from home- so we take lots of walks and have lots of cuddle & doggy play time.

We have a super-friendly miniature Australian Shepherd who loves to play with new doggy pals. If your dog is shy, we can gate our dog off until they make friends. Also, we know what it's like to miss your pooch and wonder how he or she's doing while you're away, so we send photos and quick videos as often as you'd like. While we certainly can't REPLACE you, we do make sure your pup is as happy and safe as possible while you're away!
