Best Friend of Man's Best Friend

Hi! I am a lifelong animal lover, newish to Tampa. I have grown up with dogs and cats and have many, many years of experience as a reliable pet and house sitter. My favorite hobby is taking long walks and I absolutely love when dogs can tagalong! I have a soft spot for cats and they (mostly) like me too.

Drop-In Visits • Dec 09, 2025

This was Allison's first time caring for our fur family and she did a great job. We had a very positive experience with her from our initial meet and greet to the end of care. Allison worked her magic with our girl who is terrified of new people. She warmed up to Allison on the first visit. This has never happened before. Our feline boy also felt very comfortable with Allison. She was very loving and patient, showed up on time, communicated well keeping us updated with each visit and followed my detailed care instructions very well. We will definitely use Allison's services again.

House Sitting • Dec 30, 2024

Allison was fantastic. Kind enough to accommodate us on short notice, really cared to make sure he knew his routines, diet, and how we normally take care of our pup. She sent detailed updates and photos regularly and was a great caretaker for our little guy. Thank you!!

Allison always takes care of our old doggie as if it were her own. We trust her with our pet. We really appreciated her extra care and attention to meet our doggies needs.

This is our second time leaving our Weimaraner with Allison and she could not have made us feel more comfortable! She makes sure to send frequent photo updates and goes above and beyond!

Allison took great care of our dog Maggie while we were out of town and sent us pictures everyday. She played with Maggie, took her to the park and walked her. She communicated with us and let us know how Maggie is doing, we really felt at ease knowing our dog was getting such good care. Thank You Allison!

Schedule

I work a fulltime remote job and make my own schedule. I typically take a long walk before I start my work day and a lunch time walk as well. Since my schedule is so flexible, I am able to accommodate just about any request for pet care.

Safety, trust & environment

I’ve done Rover when I lived in both New York City and San Francisco and have met some incredible people and pets. My goal is to make your pets feel safe and comfortable and enjoy their time away from their owners. I’m quite tidy and will take care of your house as if it were my own.

Pets

I like to go on a few walks throughout the day. My home is close to several parks and playgrounds and I am happy to give your dog any amount of exercise he or she requires. Pets are allowed on all furniture and I have plenty of toys for them to enjoy.

I love all breeds of dogs and know that each one has their own quirks and personalities! Just let me know what special care you pup requires and I’ll make sure they’re cared for in the best way I know how.
