About: I'm a transplant from the D.C. Area where I grew up with dogs. When I left home and started my career, having a puppy wasn't an option with my long work days. Now that I'm staying at home, I miss the love, entertainment, and energy that dogs give. I'd love to meet you, and your four legged babies! Does your pup have a special diet or require meds? That's no problem! I've done oral medications, and even had a family cat with diabetes that required twice daily injections. Regardless if it’s a walk, or caring for your four legged friend in your home, I will give them the love and care they deserve. Contact me for a free, no obligation meet and greet! I work from home, so it is my pleasure to break away as needed. This provides the freedom to make sure they don’t deviate from their normal daily schedule/routine. When providing in-home pet care, I will always focus on maintaining the pet's routine and well-being by ensuring they have food, water, and opportunities for exercise and play.

About: Hello! I am a responsible, energetic, and flexible young professional who loves meeting and caring for new dogs! After moving to Tampa from up north in Maryland, I was so sad to have to leave my labradoodle, Buster, at home. I have missed caring for a dog of my own, so what better remedy than taking care of new pups from around my neighborhood! I have several years of pet care experience, from the puppy stage all the way to adult. I love taking walks on Bayshore, and am close to several outdoor parks! I am available every day in the afternoon/evening, and generally in the early mornings. I can't wait to give your dog the best overnight experience possible, including walks in the fresh air, playtime, belly rubs, snuggles, and so much love!!!
About: Dogs, cats and all pets of all kinds deserve a compassionate care giver, and that’s me. I love adventure and cuddles. I look forward to meeting you and my next best friend! Pet care IS my daily routine. I look forward to spending morning walks with pets or feeding dinner to your furry one. Because parents need a date night, I can make sure your furry baby doesn’t notice your missing and is resting by the time you return. Safety first and foremost. Being aware of surrounds of not just other animals but also things is essential to ensuring pets have fun and maintain in peace.
About: I grew up assisting my mom with her petsitting business and I always knew I would work with animals. I started volunteering at my local animal shelter right out of high school, and went on to work at the SPCA full-time as an animal caretaker for several years. I started my own petsitting business in 2020. I provide care for animals of all sizes and species. I offer overnight stays, multiples visits per day, and in certain cases will bring dogs to my home. I have experience medicating animals such as giving insulin shots, “pilling” cats/dogs, etc. I work from home, so my schedule allows for full flexibility when it comes to petsitting. Your pets will always have my full attention while they’re in my care. If I stay at your home, I would follow whatever routine your pets have. I live in a gated townhome community with my boyfriend and our two very dog-friendly cats, Butters and Owen. Your pup would get several walks a day and is welcome to sleep in bed with us.
“Raquel was amazing with my dog! She was so patient with my dog (who is completely blind) and most importantly I could tell she genuinely liked her! I have already re-booked her and would honestly be heartbroken if she was ever not available.”

“Andrea has had three dogs in her life plus a number of cats. She has definitely loved her animals so much so that when they have died she gets very emotional. She has been very loving to all her pets but also knows how to be the pack leader and make sure they obey her commands so they stay safe. She would make a very good sitter for any dog, large or small. Our three were large breeds, and even as a very young child, Andrea did well with them.”
