“Our dog was so content and well cared for throughout her time with Nicole. To her, it was a fun vacation to hang out with Nicole. It was so great to have zero concerns, complete trust and a happy dog to return home to. Thank you Nicole!”

“Absolutely amazing!! I boarded my dog over Christmas, and I couldn’t have asked for better sitters! Great communication and pet care, great area (next to a dog park! And plenty of other sweet dogs to play with!), very kind! My puppy Reyna had an amazing time and I would 100% recommend to anyone looking to board their dog on their own doggy vacation!”

“My Senior Pup Odie spent 5 days with Eileen . She sent daily photos which made it so easy for me to be without him. I highly recommend a stay with her and will be booking again in the future.☀️”

“I cannot say enough good things about our experience with Maxine. The love & care she takes is evident the minute you walk through her door. The daily pictures & updates made it so easy to enjoy my vacation knowing that he was being doted on to the max. We will absolutely be repeat clients!”

About: I have cared for many dogs, including my own! I understand that each dog has a unique personality that I will honor with my care! I have a flexible schedule to spend time with your pet. Weekends, mornings and evenings are mostly free for me. I understand convenience is key! I have a fenced in yard, safe and cozy home, and reliable transportation to come to you. My place or yours! Honest and trustworthy service.
“Maddie was so sweet & amazing!! We received plenty of photo/video updates throughout the visit and she was really communicative on how our Biscuit was doing. Her home looked very clean & the yard was well maintained - Banks is adorable & so friendly, Biscuit had a BLAST playing with him! We would definitely use Maddie again!!”

“Joshua B. was absolutely amazing with Lobo! From the moment we connected, his communication was clear, timely, and reassuring. He treated Lobo like his own, and it was obvious our pup was happy, comfortable, and well cared for during the stay. We loved receiving updates and knowing Lobo was in such good hands. Joshua is reliable, kind, and truly cares about the pets he watches. We wouldn’t hesitate to book with him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and attentive sitter!”

“Kristin is amazing! She made Nori feel right at home. She sent pictures and updates every day and Nori looked so happy. We will definitely be using her again!”

“Sharii is a wonderful pet sitter. She took great care of my elderly fur baby and gave him extra special attention to make him feel at home. I highly recommend her!! Will definitely use her again and again!”

“We had a wonderful experience! They’re incredibly kind, caring, and flexible — which made the whole process so easy and stress-free. We felt completely at ease leaving Jax, in their care. He was so happy to be with them, and we could tell he felt right at home! We also really appreciated the updates and knowing he was getting lots of love and attention. It means so much to have neighbors we can trust with our dog. We’ll definitely be reaching out again in the future!”

“Lynne and her husband were excellent sitters for our dog while we were out of town for an extended weekend. Got daily updates and they looked after him as if he was their own. Our dog was sad to leave them.”

“The host id an amazing job with Okoye. Big back yard. Location was easy to get to. Sent pics and updates to let me know how my guy was doing. I would recommend her again and again.”

“Katherine is great. She went above and beyond to keep my Pitt happy and comfortable. Took him on long walks many times during the day. She's communicative and sends pictures throughout the day. Loved it! My Pitt will miss her and her adorable baby very much. Thanks for everything Katherine.”

“J’akeecia watched my dog while I was out of town and did an awesome job. Super easy to communicate with, sent me updates without me even asking. She was super reliable, and took great care of my pup. Pics walks, zero stress. Definitely recommend!”

“We had a fantastic experience and couldn’t recommend them more. We received lots of photo updates throughout the stay and it was clear Monty was getting plenty of walks, attention, and love. He came back happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for, which says everything. Communication was great the whole time and it gave us total peace of mind while we were away. We will absolutely be booking with Erika again.”

“Stevie and Richard were the ideal pet sitters for my Cooper. They provided a comfortable home environment and much love so that he hardly knew that I was gone. When my returning flight was delayed they worked with me to find a solution that would work for both of us. I would not hesitate to use them again the next time I'm in town. They provided me with regular feedback and pictures on how Cody was doing and their 6-month-old daughter Athena is precious as well!”

“Cece is one of the very few people I am willing to leave my pup Cash with. She treats him like one of her own and he has a blast with her pups and fenced in back yard!! She sends consistent updates, and I never have to worry about him when he is with her!”

“Shadow loves coming to happy tails! They are great at communicating and sending updates which is what I like the most about them.I would totally recommend using them”

“Fant has enjoyed a 10 day stay at Windelll’s place with lots of play, love and exercise in the large backyard. If you are looking for a safe place for your dog(s), I absolutely recommend Windell.”

“Haley was absolutely wonderful! We had to extend our time with her unexpectedly, and she accommodated us willingly—even on short notice. Her flexibility and kindness made a stressful situation much easier, and we’re so grateful for her support.”

East Tampa dog parents share their Rover experiences
This was my first time trusting halo with someone I’ve never met! I was soooo nervous but Ada eased all of my anxiousness! She’s absolutely amazing and I can tell halo had such a good time! The check ins and pictures helped me so much! I will be booking again! 10/10!

Lynne and her husband are very kind and welcoming. They took care of my baby Luna while I was gone on a little vacay with my family. They sent pictures of her while I was gone and let her roam around within their spacious yard. Hopefully I'll have another opportunity to have them take care of her again.
Delaney and Alex took excellent care of my senior dog for over 2 weeks. They took her on walks, gave her meds, and showered her with lots of individual attention. You can tell they are caring animal lovers. I would trust them with Lizzie any time. She came home happy and healthy.

Karlie was great! I could tell before dropping Stella off that Karlie would provide all the love and care Stella would need and she did! The pictures Karlie provided put my mind at ease and let me know Stella was adjusting well. I will definitely use Karlie in the future.

Elizabeth is super friendly and she was great with Kai! She took him on long walks and played fetch with him…his favorite! I got some of the BEST photos while I was away. I will definitely book with her again and will recommend her to friends. Thank you, Elizabeth!!

I cannot say enough awesome things about Stephanie & Rory (her sweet doodle)! They were both so awesome to Nicole, going on daily walks, giving her the favorite treats (apples and carrots) and sharing his bed when she wanted to lay on it ☺️. I received daily sweet pictures and very responsive communication. I goofed up the reservation and needed to extend by a day. Stephanie was incredibly gracious and immediately corrected my mistake. Thank you for taking such great care of our girl! 🫶
