“Jennifer was great! I would definitely recommend! My pug and cat were well looked after and Jennifer was communicative daily with great pics. Appreciated Jennifer’s flexibility at short notice too.”
“Naomi was wonderful! We have a senior dog and she absolutely made him comfortable while we were away! We were thankful to have her watch our fur babies and would absolutely book Naomi again. She came on time, ensured they were fed/happy/pottied and communicated effectively! Thank you Naomi!”
“Bekah was a star sitter!! The best we've had so far. You could tell she really cared for Diesel and spent her time playing with him and giving him so much love during her visit. She followed everything I had asked her to do & more. She cleaned up after Diesel and made sure he had everything he needed. She locked up afterwards and made sure Diesel was set before leaving. I couldn't have asked for anything more. Hoping to hire her again!”
“Summer took wonderful care of our kitties while we were away on a holiday weekend. We were able to relax knowing they were in good hands. Highly recommend Summer for your pet sitting needs.”
About: Tampa native that has been around furry creatures my whole life. I would love to fill my free time with carrying for your furry friends! I have a 90 lb. golden retriever back home as a reference. I’ve been pet-sitting for friends and neighbors since before I could drive. I’m available most weekday evenings, and all day weekends, including Fridays. Your dogs and I are going to get along so well they might be asking you when I’ll be back. I’m definitely on the smaller side stature-wise, so I would prefer small to medium size or easy-to-handle larger to dogs. I am also able to spend time at your dog’s home which you are graciously allowed to occupy, for home visits and house sitting as needed. I’ve always been around animals, so it’s always been a part of my routine. I make sure to give my furry friends love every day so I can happily add yours to my rotation! I do offer overnight house-sitting if your pets are more comfortable with a companion. Let me know your pet’s preferences, needs and routine and I’ll keep it up while you’re away!
“Olivia was great with my dog Penny, she is very sweet. She was willing to do what was needed to get her to take her medicine when not feeling good. She also took the time to come meet us before the weekend walks. Would definitely use her again.”

“Katie has been wonderful with my Mocha kitty and became good friends over the long couple weeks stay. She sent pics every day and kept me up to date with thorough details, so I was comforted knowing my "baby" was in great hands. Definitely recommend Katie for your pet sitting needs.”
About: I’ve owned and cared for dogs my entire life, and love being around them! Long walks are never a problem with me and I’ll make sure your furry family member is happy, exercised, and well taken care of. I always have time during the mornings as I don’t leave for work until around 1:45pm. I’m typically done around 7pm-8:30pm so I’ve got time in the evenings to check up on them and get a nice long walk in before bed. I’m all about adapting to your pet’s routine. If there’s a certain structure to their day that they’re used to, I do my best to stick to and and replicate it so they’re comfortable and happy.

“Our pups and cat love Christi. She takes such good care of them. Our little girl chihuahua was so sad when she left the other day. She will be so happy to see Christi the next time!”
“Laura took such great care of Toast! She provided lots of cute pictures, was on time and made sure he got the care he needed while I was away! I will definitely book with Luara in the future.”
About: Experience dog sitter with an overflowing love for all pets. I would love to help you take care of your pet and love them as if they were my own! I've owned and cared for dogs from a very young age and love being around them. I am located in the downtown/channelside area, so I can get to wherever in a pinch! I also work remotely with flexible work hours, so I am looking to fill time throughout my week caring for your pet or house sitting. My fiancé and I aren't quite in the point of life to have our own dog, so I get my fix of pets and cuddles through the pets of others! I work remotely Monday-Friday with flexible hours that allow me the ability to be active with your pet throughout the day, take them on multiple walks if needed, and offer extra cuddles/play time! I will ensure that your pets are taken care of as if they were my own! I love to provide clients with daily photo and text updates, especially if owners are on vacation or away for multiple nights. As mentioned, I have a very flexible work schedule with very few meetings, so I can provide your pet the necessary attention and exercise during the day! This also allows me to stick to your dog's routine if they have a certain structure they are used to.

“Chloe was friendly and took great care of my kitty! I got multiple cute pictures of him getting treats and played with as requested. I would definitely book her again!”
About: I have been a sitter for neighborhood dogs (from puppies to seniors) for over 5 years now. I have also had experience with shy dogs that are not always energetic and willing to be patted but with time those dogs have also been amazing to work with. I owned a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel for 14 years (who passed away from old age), whom I loved dearly. I have a pretty flexible schedule. I wake up early to go swimming every morning but am otherwise available for daytime and afternoon walks and doggy daycare. I live close to Riverwalk which is a great place for walks with your furry friend. I am always cautious about the heat during the summer when walking dogs so I will always bring a water bottle on our walks.
About: I recently graduated USF with an animal biology degree and have been around animals since I was little. I have been petsitting for several years. I have experience fostering puppies and kittens for the Humane Society of Tampa Bay. I was also a puppy raiser for Southeastern Guide Dogs. I have my own pets as well. So I have experience with all different animals and ages. I have a very flexible schedule. I am typically available any times throughout the week and most weekends. Let me know what times you would need and I am happy to accommodate. I am able to take your dog on however long of a walk you’d like. I can play fetch/games or cuddle with them. Whatever they need.
About: I’ve had multiple dogs (all rescues so I’ve had experience with all sorts of behavior) since I was born. I love all pets, and am incredibly patient. Your pet is your baby, and no one gets that more than me! I’m very available for pet care! I am staying at home this summer and have a pretty free schedule that is edible to your needs! I prefer keeping your pet in your own home, where they are most comfortable. Playtime, multiple walks a day, feeding schedules, etc. are very important!
“Becky was very attentive to our pup and communicated any concerns.”
About: I’ve had and taken care of dogs my entire life, from puppies to elderly dogs, from 10 pounds to 150. I’ve learned to take care of dogs of all mannerisms and health issues. I’m currently working part time at a coffee shop with a schedule that’s very easy to work around. On days that I am not working I can take care of pets full time, and days that I am I can still make stop in visits multiple times. I currently can’t house pets in my own home due to my apartments rules. I can be there to let your pets out, give them a chance to play and let their energy out or just spend time with them if that’s all that they need. Just let me know what your dog needs and I can help

Drew Z.
“Just to be honest, Drew is my grandson. But he has kept my dog Arnold for me many times. Drew knows that my Arnold is very important to me. But I know even if Arnold was not related, Drew would take very good care of him. He spends time, follows his schedule and is gentle and kind. Knowing Drew it would not matter if he was caring for a dog or a cat, fish or bird. He’ll always do his best to care for your family pets.”

Emily is the absolute best! I just went to Europe - absolutely terrified she would bring up random BS that she couldn't walk Dallas etc. when I had no options to do anything when I was that far away She handled everything seamlessly! Book her immediately! Shes a college student thats on point!
Always trust Christine with my little one! The updates and pictures are just perfect and always put me at ease when I’m away!
Samantha was A-MAZ-ING! One of our two cats had a health issue while we were gone. Samantha contacted me about taking her to the vet, and she came back for an additional visit to get my cat to the vet at the correct time. She had great communication with me throughout, and added extra visits to accommodate the medication schedule the vet prescribed. She did a great job giving the cat her medicine and giving both cats love and attention (brushing, petting, special treats) throughout the week that we were gone. I would not hesitate to book Smanatha again.
Amanda did an amazing job! My cat tends to be mean to people but she did a great job of understanding her and giving her space. Will be booking again!
Amazing as always this is probably my 4th time booking with Maddison! She is amazing and definitely has become my go-to Cat sitter!
Kel is always well-taken care off. Grateful for all the TLC Carolina provided him while we were away.

Amanda took such great care of our kitties while we were away! I highly recommend her and will definitely book with her again in the future. Wish I could give more than 5 stars!!!
Excellent, as always! Emrick is such a great pet sitter. She cares for our pets as if they’re her own. She is responsible and conscientious, and goes above and beyond to make sure our pets are happy. And, the house is always clean which is amazing. She’s really the best!
Ashley did an incredible job dropping in on our two cats for a long trip! She made sure both of them were doing okay, fed them, made sure all their litter and water was okay, and spent plenty of time playing with them and sending us pictures! Even though we missed our cats while away, we were so happy to know that they were in great hands. I would highly recommend Ashley for drop in cat services!
So glad I have been connected with Sydney! She is great, extremely caring, and loves my boys like her own. I highly recommend her!!
Re-booked with Samantha for daily drop-in visits to take care of my two cats while on a two week trip and she took phenomenal care of both! Plenty of treats and play time, they barely knew I was gone, would highly recommend her for your pet needs!
Karin is amazing, we had a last minute change and she was awesome and accommodating. She is great with the cats and the pictures are always amazing. Highly recommend she will love your pets as much as you do
Jaclyn was great with our cats! She arrived on time for visits and even got our shy cat to play! Highly recommend and will use again!
This is Nicholas fourth visit with Fiona. He is so sweet and spends a lot of time playing with her. She just loves him and I will call him again. Thanks so much!
Very happy I chose Hannah to take care of my kitties while I was out of town. She did an awesome job making sure my cats had everything they needed while I was gone. Will definitely book with her again!
