“Suzanne is awesome! Our dog Daisy is so excited to see her every time. She does a great job keeping me updated of how Daisy is doing with her walking on leash. She is timely and professional. We are lucky to have found her.”
“Thank you for all you do with Winnie! We can see how excited she is to see you and how sweet and gentle you are with her. We have seen a real impact with her mobility when we take her in her evening walks - she is so confident on the sidewalks now!”
About: I have been around animals my whole life. Mostly cats and dogs. I have learned to understand their behaviors really well. I even have a special place in my heart for the seniors & the sassy ones. I am happy to help! I work from home part time so I can be flexible with pet care & have time to play/give attention to your pet. I am available for boarding after 3 pm on weekdays & I am pretty flexible for weekends. I work from home and am able to walk your dog as much as they need should you need to board them at my home.
“Summer is the absolute best. She was such a god send for us when moving to Tampa and finding someone to take care of our boy, Louie. Super reliable, communicative, responsive. Just the absolute best. Can’t recommend her enough for your pet care needs!!”
“I was gone for the weekend and Desiree walked my dog Buddy multiple times! She has a calm presence and did wonderful with my large pitbull mix. I definitely would recommend her!”
“Shawn is excellent! She takes the time needed to make sure your pet has had a nice break from his/her crate. My fur baby stopped having accidents in his crate because of her consistency and time with him!”
“Amanda is such a pleasure to work with! Our dog loved her from the second she walked through the door- she ran right up to her and wagged her tail- and she loved going on walks with her. We were so happy to find Amanda and would recommend her to anyone for any doggie care!”
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: 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.
“Another successful trip with help from Amanda’s excellent service! This was my second time hiring Amanda and she delivered the same patient and professional dog care I’ve come to expect. She remembered all the visit instructions without reminder, making a busy travel week that much easier. I ended up having to extend my trip a full day and Amanda graciously took on two additional walks on very short notice. Plus, my dog Cleo absolutely loves her. Best dog care professional I've ever hired!”
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.
About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong animal lover with 15+ years of experience in pet care. Growing up surrounded by animals, I helped my sister care for them and even taught my own puppy fun tricks like shaking paws and sneezing on command! While I don’t currently have a pet of my own, I cherish the opportunity to give your furry friend the love, attention, and care they deserve. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or cuddles, I’m here to make tails wag and keep everyone happy! When im not at work I love to set time aside to take care of your furry friends. My work schedule changes so we can discuss times that work best. R.E.S.P.E.C.T! Especially when it’s the first time meeting. I love meeting pets and respecting their boundaries is super important. Everyone is different so I always like to watch for signs to keep tails wagging.
