Responsible & loving dog parents

Hello! Our names are Alanna and Mark and we are both huge animal lovers. We have experience in caring for both large and small dogs, growing up with both. We currently have two senior dogs, one who is blind and deaf and a bunny! We are very used to administering medications and dealing with special needs dogs. Mark is Pet CPR certified. We will will happily take your pup for a walk, to the park, and provide tons of love and snuggles while you’re away! We will be happy to send you updates and keep you informed on how they are doing while you are away. We typically divide and conquer with one of us staying home with our pets while the other gives 100% attention to yours! We look forward to meeting you and taking care of your furry best friend.

Alanna is the best. Our puppy Mahi had a great stay. Communication is always easy; dog is well-loved - situation is ideal and we will continue to rebook.

Alanna took great care of LJ. She regularly kept me updated on how he was doing and sent lots of pictures of him enjoying her fenced in backyard. We will definitely stay with her again!

Alanna did an amazing job watching our dog Barnacle for a little more than two weeks during a recent vacation. Communication was great and Barnacle clearly had a great time during her stay. But more than that, our trip occurred during hurricane Milton. We were across the ocean and could not return and Alanna was excellent about taking care of Barnacle through the evacuation and return to a house with no power and all of the stress etc etc. It was extremely comforting for us to know our dog was in such capable hands while watching the whole thing play out from far away with no idea what would happen. I would recommend Alanna to anyone and we’ll definitely be rebooking her services in the future.

Alanna took such great care of Bodhi, providing him a fun and enriching stay while thoughtfully managing his unique needs as a rescue. We're grateful for her clear communication, kindness, and the safe environment she created for him!

Safety, trust & environment

I have a dog of my own as well as having grown up with dogs. I am an active foster for the Tampa Bay humane society as well as several other organizations. I am experience with puppies through senior dogs as well as giving medication and special accommodations. My back yard was designed with dogs in mind. We have a huge fully fenced turf outdoor area as well as a separate fenced dog park with a fire hydrant to allow us the ability to separate the dogs during outdoor time if needed.

Pets

A typical day

We have lots of play time in the yard during the day and go for walks in the evening. But if your dog is just a couch potato theres plenty of time for that too.
