Doggy Day Care Downtown

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 love dogs so much and would love to walk any pups in the Channelside/Water Street/Harbour Island areas! I’m always happy to watch my friends pets and treat them like they’re my own. I would love to walk your pups on both the weekends and weekdays. I work remote so I am flexible! I’d be happy to schedule reoccurring walks as well. I love dogs so much and would be doing this for pure enjoyment! With that being said, I will take care of your pup like they are my own. I am a very cautious walker just because I used to have a small senior dog and will walk your dog with the same care.

“Samuel has watched Shadow twice now while I run errands. His communication is great and he’s very accommodating. I highly recommend him.”

About: I have been dog walking and pet sitting since 2015, it started out looking after my neighbor’s 2 dogs and before i knew it, the good word spread around in my neighborhood and i became the local pet sitter, everything grew after that. Not to mention i have been around dogs my whole life, my mom had 3 growing up. i realized that although im able to make money from this, it doesn't feel like a job to me at all because i absolutely love animals and i feel good taking care of them. i can say that i have found my passion in the process. i provide 5 star service and keep great communication with the owners. i am very trustworthy, and have many references to support my claims which are available upon request. i love what i do and if you allow me the opportunity to show you, i will provide great value to you and your pet’s needs. i am able to fulfill custom requests as well. anything else you would like to know just ask me, i am very transparent and personable. Thank you for the opportunity! God bless. i left my former job in 2019 to become a full time pet caretaker. my schedule is flexible, and i will most likely be able to meet your availability needs. i have set up my home to be a very safe and pet-friendly environment, they have space to roam around inside and outdoor availability as well. There is also a very nice dog park in my neighborhood. i am very respectful when entering other people’s homes and i view it as a privilege that they trust me in their home. i mind my own business and only do what the owner asks of me. i treat other’s homes as i would want mine to be treated.

“Danielle was incredible! I am always nervous to leave our dogs somewhere new, but Danielle truly went above and beyond. We got so many pictures and updates throughout their daycare. She was so incredibly sweet and communicative. We found our new favorite Tampa sitter!”

About: I’ve spent my whole life caring for animals and understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. As a pet owner myself, I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your animals. I have experience caring for pets who need extra attention, including senior pets, anxious pets, and animals with medical needs. I’m also comfortable giving medications and following specific care routines, as I have my own pets who require daily medication and extra support. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine, and I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide consistent attention and care throughout the day. I enjoy planning my time around each pet's needs, whether that means walks, playtime, feeding, or simply keeping them company. My biggest priority when caring for pets is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I’m very attentive when it comes to feeding schedules, medications, behaviors, and changes in mood or energy. Having pets of my own, including ones with health needs, I understand how important it is to follow instructions carefully and notice when something seems off.

About: Hi I’m Zoë! I work from home full time, so your pup will get consistent attention and company throughout the day, including frequent potty breaks, playtime, and cuddles. I have a Golden Retriever named Goose who is almost 2 years old, and basically incapable of meeting a person or animal he doesn’t immediately love. I know firsthand how much our pets become part of the family. I understand what it’s like to treat your fur baby like your own child and want them to receive the same love, attention, and care you would give them yourself. I absolutely love giving pets lots of attention, cuddles, playtime, walks, and of course, plenty of love. I’ll treat your pet like they’re my own and make sure they feel happy, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away! You can expect lots of updates, photos, and a calm and attentive home environment. I also have a fully fenced in backyard, so they can get plenty of off leash time too. I work remotely full time, and I have a flexible schedule with plenty of time to give your pet the attention and care they deserve. I’m available any day of the week and flexible with scheduling. I’ll make sure your pup gets plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and love while I’m with them. I’m happy to accommodate special requests and will follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible. I have a fully fenced yard and a sweet, playful Golden Retriever who loves making new friends. I work from home and am home most of the day, so your pup will get lots of attention and won’t be left alone for long. My goal is to make sure your baby feels comfortable, happy, cared for, and loved while they’re with me!

About: I am a dog lover with lots of love and care to give ! I have had animals all my life and currently have a sweet senior dog. I am comfortable with taking care of dogs of all age ranges. I work fully remote which makes me available during both the day and the evenings. Both my dog and I are active , so we enjoy our walks. Because I am home during the day, I am able to offer lots of love and attention. I have a senior dog who is unbothered by most things , but still enjoys her walks. We are often out and about getting exercise. I live in a very dog friendly area so there are a lot of new things to sniff and check out.

“Evgenia was able to watch Shadow on very short notice, and I really appreciate it. She is nice, communicates well, and most importantly, she took great care of my baby. I will definitely book with her again in the future!”

Jazmine L.

“Chante is so reliable! Our plans had a last minute change and the morning of, Chante was able help us out and watch our girl for the day. Nola loves playing with Makeda and I know I can always count on Chante to be attentive and keep us in the loop throughout her care!”

About: I grew up around dogs and cats, mostly German Shephards, and I currently have a 2 year old cat named Willow and a 9 year old scruffball named Pichu. I also have experience with axolotls, turtles, rodents/rabbits, and fish, in case you have other pets that also need attending to while you are away. I am also happy to do additional tasks like collect mail, water plants, and other small things you may need done in your home while you are away from it and your pets. I work part time at Health Mutt in Seminole Heights and have extensive knowledge and connections in the holistic food and grooming world. Let’s talk! I work from home and can take breaks as often as needed to take care of any animals in my care, especially for walks and play time I have one dog that loves to play with any other dogs, and my cat can be secured as necessary. I am happy to let dogs out or take them for walks.

“Nemo had so much fun with Margarita and Clarissa! I loved seeing pictures of him throughout the day. Great yard as well!”

Samantha J.

“Honestly, the most amazing pet sitters ever! I’ve used them many times now, and every single experience has been incredible. They always go above and beyond, even accepting my last-minute booking requests whenever they can. They send frequent updates and lots of pictures, which gives me complete peace of mind knowing my baby is safe, happy, and well cared for. He absolutely loves staying with them, and I never have to worry while I’m away. It’s such a relief to have people I completely trust to care for my dog. I couldn’t recommend them more, and they’ll always be my first choice for pet sitting!”
