Dog Boarding In Gandy-Sun Bay South

“Hermun took great care of Teddy over the weekend. I really liked how she requires a meet and greet ahead of time. She is very professional, asks great questions, and takes notes during the meeting to ensure that she knows all of the dog’s information before boarding. She was very responsive and sent photos during her time with Teddy which I really appreciated. Teddy loved her outside patio! I highly recommend booking with Hermun.”

“Tucker had an amazing time while staying with Margarita and Carissa. We are pretty sure that he had as good vacation as we did. Their son was Tucker‘s best playmate. We would highly recommend Margarita and Clarissa for anyone in the area needing a safe and loving home for their pet. Thank you again for the love and care.❤️. Bonus, they have an amazing backyard!”

“There are sitters who are doing this to make a living, and there are sitters who take care of pets because they love and care for pets. Shayna does love and care for pets under her care. We got daily pictures, updates and our dog was happy, happy all the time. We absolutely will take Rosie back to Shayna and we totally recommend her.”

“Our sweet girl is not used to not being around us and we do not leave her often. Ania was the perfect person to take care of her!! She understood her little quirks and made her feel at home. I honestly think by the time Chloe left she felt like she was part of the family and she was only there for 3 night! I would choose her again anytime I need someone to look after our sweet girl. I can not thank her enough.”

Susan E.

“Valeriia was a fantastic sitter! She was very accommodating when our travel plans had to be extended because of weather. Our dog looked like she was having a great time in all the pictures and videos Valeriia sent. They really went above and beyond and walked our dog everyday on top of letting her play outside. Valeriia's daughter looked like she really enjoyed having our dog there and was very friendly and sweet with her. Over-all we had a great experience and we will definitely be using them again. Highly reccomend!”

“Linda was fabulous. We had never left Joey before with someone new and he had the best time. Linda always sent updates and pictures of Joey which made me feel at ease that he was having fun. Linda also taught Joey new tricks! We will definitely book again”

About: With 12 years of experience and a household that has always revolved around animals, We are well-versed in managing a busy, happy home. Our experience includes years of caring for large breeds and maintaining consistent training and boundaries. As parents of two young children, we are naturally observant and detail-oriented when it comes to safety and routines. We understand the level of trust it takes to leave a pet in someone else's care, and we treat every guest with the same dedication we’ve given my own pets over the last decade. Your pet will rarely, if ever, be alone. Both my wife and I are home throughout the day—she manages our household with our two young children, and I work from home with a very flexible schedule. This 'double coverage' means we can easily accommodate mid-day walks, frequent potty breaks, and plenty of companionship. Whether your dog prefers to nap under my desk while I work or play in the yard with the family, they will have constant supervision and engagement. Your pet’s safety and comfort are our top priorities. Since I work from home and my wife is a stay-at-home mom, we provide 24/7 supervision and a highly flexible routine. We are active daily at Gadsden Park and MacDill 48 Park, and guest dogs become a full part of our family outings and neighborhood walks. Our home features a large, fully fenced yard for secure play. We have two resident cats who have grown up with dogs and are very calm and 'dog-savvy.' They are comfortable coexisting with canine guests, but our home layout also allows us to easily keep them in separate areas if your dog is shy or needs a slower introduction. Because we have two young children, we are a perfect fit for gentle, socialized dogs who enjoy a lively, loving family environment.

“Cece was a wonderful sitter for Benito. Drop off went very smoothly with a meet and greet with her dogs in their nice big yard they get to play in. Cece kept me updated with pictures and videos and was very responsive within minutes anytime I messaged her. Thank you Cece, I knew Benito was in great hands!”

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.
