Wedding Dog Handlers

on October 15, 2020 at 4:20 PM Posted in Planning 1 3
I’m actually shocked that I have not been able to locate as many vendors about this type of service as I hoped for. Most of the people I talked to are just dog sitters and looking for some extra income but I’m a little wary that they may not have the experience. While dog sitting is one thing, being a dog handler requires really great communication skills with other vendors (specially your photographer), requires dealing with anxious dogs and owners (and guests), etc. In my mind, I would prefer someone that has done a couple of weddings before and has reviews to show. Someone that can provide transportation for my dog to and from the venue.


I’ve only found two companies that actually only do weddings in FL but their pricing is really hard to compare.
Any recommendations for a wedding dog handler in Florida? Preferably someone in the Northeast part of the state (think St. Augustine)? Wedding Dog Handlers 1

    Hmm... are there any breed specific interest groups near you? I’m wondering if someone who handles dogs professionally might be interested in bidding on this work. They’d certainly have the skills, I’m just not sure what level of interest, comfort or pricing you’d get.

    Oh that’s a great idea! I didn’t think about it!


    My dog is a Dachshund mix so not a huge dog but I’ll definitely check on those groups 😁

    Ok! Definitely take a look on Facebook for a dachshund club near you! I’m thinking anyone who shows dogs professionally or for fun could be a good wedding day handler. 😁 We have a corgi and there’s a corgi club for our state and they’re pretty active on the Facebook group.
