Bre was absolutely great! I had a scheduling issue with my original plans, and she was incredibly flexible and accommodating. She adjusted the schedule to fit my family’s needs, which took a huge amount of stress off my plate. It was clear she genuinely cared about helping everything go smoothly. I really appreciated her communication, reliability, and willingness to work with us. I’d definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and understanding dog sitter/walker.

About: I’m an experienced dog sitter and active foster with a deep understanding of dogs who benefit from patience, consistency, and thoughtful, attentive care. Through fostering, I’ve worked with a wide range of personalities, including dogs adjusting to new environments, managing anxiety, or coming from uncertain backgrounds. I offer overnight boarding in my home, drop-in visits, and walks. My approach is calm, structured, and intentionally low-volume, allowing me to provide a higher level of individualized attention and a predictable, low-stress routine for each dog in my care. When dogs stay in my home, I’m intentional about introductions, supervision, and maintaining a peaceful environment. I limit the number of dogs I care for at one time and thoughtfully consider temperament and compatibility to ensure a safe and comfortable experience. I’m experienced with administering medications, supporting crate routines, reinforcing training cues, and following detailed care instructions. I pay close attention to behavior, body language, and subtle changes, and I communicate proactively with updates so you can feel confident and at ease while you’re away. Whether your dog is social and energetic or more sensitive and routine-oriented, my goal is to provide reliable, attentive care in a calm environment where they can feel safe, settled, and genuinely well cared for. Additional Note on Care Options: For dogs who are comfortable around other well-matched dogs, I offer a social boarding environment with thoughtful introductions and supervision. I also offer private, solo care for dogs who require or prefer being the only dog in my home. As this option reserves my full availability and limits additional bookings, a premium rate may apply. If your dog has specific preferences or sensitivities, I’m always happy to discuss the best fit to ensure an exceptional experience. Extended In-Home Care: For in-home visits or daycare sessions exceeding 8 hours, an additional fee may apply to reflect the extended attention and reserved time. This ensures every dog receives consistent, high-quality care throughout the day. I currently run my own business and have a flexible schedule that allows me to work from home or out of the house as needed. Because of this, I’m able to prioritize pet care throughout the day and provide reliable walks, drop-ins, and attentive supervision. I have a fenced in yard at my home, am able to walk dogs as needed and take care of dogs for drop in visits at any south Tampa home.

About: My first ever pet was a bunny when I was 8 years old, and after that I just loved having pets! I have had a family dog for 7 years, which we adopted from the SAFE Foundation in Jacksonville, FL! Porkchop has been a constant motivation for me and has made me such a dog-lover(especially big dogs!) Porkchop is an old man now, so I have experience with senior dogs. I also have experience with timid, shy, and also very hyper dogs! I can provide walks multiple times a day, I live near a big walking path next to the bay, so I am able to give long, quality walks. I also live near a dog park. I work part-time, but not all day so I am able to have a flexible schedule. I care for my pets and will absolutely care for other people’s pets as if they are my own. I am willing to follow a care plan to ensure that clients are more than happy with their pet’s experience in my care!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats for the last 2 years. I have cared for senior dogs and senior cats, as well as puppies. having to do daily walkings and daily medications, along with walking the senior dogs outside to make sure they were able to use the restroom and come back into the house with no troubles. Other tasks I have done are walking, sleeping over at the house for long periods of time, and keeping up with their feeding schedule. Every morning consisted of following the feeding schedule, along with medications and exercise! I want to be able to provide this service for your animal, so you can know and feel that your baby is being taken care of in a responsible and fun manner. I will be providing the services of walking, drop-ins and doggy day cares! As I am a college student working a full time job, these services allow me to drop in on your furr baby to make sure they’re get some play time/walks and feedings! If I were to open boarding or house sitting In my clients home, and in my own home, I will always make sure they know their furr baby and being respectful of the house is my top priority. Being able to care for pets at my apartment is my ideal scenario, I can assure you he/she will feel nothing but love and care being under my surveillance. In my home, animals are allowed on furniture and walks will be taken out at the dog park in my apartment complex. I also enjoy walking bayshore, so this would be a place I would take your dog as well to get out of the house and get fresh air!

About: My first job was at an exotic pet shop. I quickly learned how to care for a variety of animals and a passion grew for ethics in animal care. I love cats and dogs, I’ve had them my whole life. And I also have worked with animal rescue for birds, lizards, turtles, and many other kinds of animals. I am very passionate about two things. Fitness and animals. If your dog loves to go for walks I look at it as a motivation to get myself moving! If ur can’t likes the tiring string play all over I make sure to commit until we’re both panting! Hehe I work full time Monday through Friday with plenty of time in the morning and evening to make sure to spend a good amount of time with your fur baby! I treat others homes as I would hope someone would treat mine. I’m an honest woman, with morals guided by my faith. I treat animals with the utmost respect.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5/5 – Serena Is Wonderful! Serena has been amazing with our Lab, Rebel, and we couldn’t be happier with her! She’s incredibly patient, kind, and attentive, and Rebel absolutely loves his time with her. You can tell she genuinely cares about the dogs she works with and brings such a calm, positive energy. One thing we appreciate most is how dependable she is — Serena is always willing to step in and help whenever we need extra support, which has been such a lifesaver for us. Her communication and reliability are top-notch, and we always feel confident knowing Rebel is in great hands. We would absolutely recommend Serena to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring dog walker — we’ll definitely keep using her!

Ahmad was a true savior to step in with minimal notice and do a 23 day booking when Nena's primary caretaker had a medical emergency. Completely professional, great communication and every picture I received of Nena...she was smiling ear to ear!
