Safety, trust & environment

My home is on a quiet street with a large fenced in backyard with plenty of room inside and lots of windows for your pet to find the perfect napping sun spot. I am also available to come to you for day visits and/or walks. I prefer doing a quick meet and greet with you and your dog (no charge of course!) before providing services so we can make sure we all get along together.

I'm your dog's new best friend

Pet care experience

I've grown up with dogs my whole life up until I moved down to Florida. Since living in St. Pete for the past two years I have been dog sitting for my friends' dogs every chance I get. I'm excited that I can now watch their dogs in my quiet neighborhood home and let them roam free in my fenced in backyard. I treat all dogs as if they were my own! I make sure to give them plenty of attention, belly rubs, walks, and high fives. It's hard having to leave your dog home alone to go to work or find someone trustworthy to watch him or her while you're out of town but I'm excited to become your new trusted dog sitter! Whether it's a quick check in, a walk around the block, or a weekend hang I'm ready to become BFF with your pup.

Francesca was amazing! She provided consistent updates and pictures during my dog’s first time boarding with her. Would book again! :)

I always feel guilty leaving Zoey but there was no need for that. I I felt so comfortable with Francesca watching her. We got photos and updates throughout the stay. I know Zoey felt perfectly at home. Couldn't be happier with Francesca's care of Zoey.
