Dog Walking in Lakewood Ranch

Where Master-Planned Streets Meet a Dog's Daily Routine

Lakewood Ranch was designed around community, activity, and a high standard of living. Its wide sidewalks, trail systems, and parks make it one of the best environments in the state for a daily dog walk — but only if your walker knows what they're doing. Thom Ellis drives from Sarasota to serve Lakewood Ranch families because the demand is there and the community deserves a walker with genuine credentials. His U.S. Army handler training and Ringling Circus background give him an edge no app-matched dog walker can replicate.

Lakewood Ranch Dogs Get Full-Service Professional Care

From Main Street Lakewood Ranch to the newest villages in Waterside, T&TK9 provides 20, 40, and 60-minute walks, drop-in visits for busy working households, pet taxi runs to the Lakewood Ranch veterinary clinics and groomers, and by-appointment dog training for families dealing with specific behavioral challenges. Every visit is handled personally by Thom — no subcontractors, no strangers.

A Standard of Pet Care That Matches This Community

Lakewood Ranch homeowners put thought into every choice — their neighborhood, their builders, their schools. They deserve the same intentionality when choosing who enters their home and handles their dog. Thom Ellis has built his career on earning the trust of animals and the people who own them. Every visit includes a post-walk report, and every dog is handled with the calm, structured authority of someone who learned his craft at the highest professional levels.
