NEVER ALONE & ALWAYS LOVED!
Pet care experience
My husband is semi-retired/works from home, and I have a hybrid work-from-home/in the field job so we can promise you your pup will never be alone when they stay at our house. In March 2023 we lost our beloved English Mastiff. He weighed 170 pounds so we are knowledgeable and experienced in caring for giant breeds, in fact we love them. However we love dogs of all shapes, sizes, ages, and breeds. We are not yet ready to get a new dog of our own, but we greatly miss having a dog in our home, which is why we would love to open our home to yours. We loved and spoiled our boy with everything we had, and we will treat your dog just the same! Prior to our English Mastiff, we had a French Mastiff named Louie, my parents have a British Cream named Samson, growing up I had three Golden Retrievers named Honey, Casey, and Doc. Before I was married, my roommate and I shared a King Charles Cavalier/Poodle mix named Sebastian, and before I moved to Florida I used to dogsit via Rover for many different breeds including a Staffordshire Terrier, Shetland Sheepdog, a Bulldog, Pitbull, and two Shih Tzus just to name a few. The list goes on and on, but the bottom line is that your dog will be loved, nurtured, and made to feel at home when he or she stays with us. We have plenty of references including neighbors with dogs who can attest to how we treat our pets. We would love to meet you and your dog, and show you our home so that you feel safe and confident your pet will be in great hands.
Reviews
Julie and Edward were the best caretakers for our pups! They went above and beyond! We received a steady supply of pictures and videos to keep us constantly assured of our pups comfort and happiness! The dogs were spoiled with treats, burgers, toys and plenty of love! Your furry friends may end up having more fun on their vacation than you! Would definitely recommend.
These two were absolutely fabulous!! I cannot say enough good things about them. Duke can be a handful and I felt so at ease dropping him off. The pictures they sent made my day. It really showed just how much fun he was having and how absolutely great they were at making him feel at home and apart of their family. It’s a miracle Duke even wanted to come home with me after special Easter treat and all the loving he got from the two of them! I would definitely recommend and so wish we lived closer to use them more often!
Julie and Edward are amazing. They were so welcoming. Julie and Edward were wonderful with Buddy. They kept me posted and sent many photos throughout Buddy’s stay to assure me he was having a great time. He had so much fun I worried he may not want to come home LOL. I will never use anyone else. I will recommend Julie and Edward every opportunity. Thank you both so much for taking such great care of Buddy.
Julie and Edward were great caregivers for our older dog. They sent pictures throughout the stay and kept us up to date on how he was doing. He got a lot of attention and seemed very relaxed and comfortable with the environment. We really appreciated the time and energy they spent making sure our dog was well cared for.

We do not have any animals in our home at this time. We live on a quiet residential street with a fenced in backyard that backs up to a park. Your dog will enjoy some quality people-watching as passerbys jog or walk by frequently with their own dogs. We do have a few bunnies that graze on our grass sometimes, but there’s lots of shrubs and bushes for them to hide in if your dog has a prey drive. Inside our floors are all tile so they will be cool and comfortable, and of course you are welcome to bring beds and blankets and toys to make them feel more at home.

Information Julie & Edward Z. would like to know about your pet
We do not allow dogs on our bed, no exceptions, so please consider this when thinking about where they will sleep - we want them to be comfortable. The rest of the furniture and house are free reign. We keep the couches covered in blankets that get washed after each fur guest. ** We only take more than one dog at a time if they are from the same family
A typical day
We live right next to Eagle Lake Park which is a wonderful place to go for walks. We would love to take your dog for a drive and some sightseeing, let them sniff around our backyard, and take them out to Safety Harbor or Dunedin for some hang time if you think they’d like that.

Availability
Your dog will never be alone when they stay with us, and our schedules are very flexible. We’ve always had a dog of our own until recently so we are experienced and knowledgeable, especially in older dogs and also dogs with special needs like skin care or medications. On weekends if we go out, we will take your dog with us based on your comfort level. If you prefer they don’t leave our property, then one of us will stay home with them. We will never leave your dog by themselves when they stay with us.
