Keeping Pets Happy & Safe!

Eighteen years of experience is what I offer clients who expect reliability, honesty, empathy and skilled care for their dogs and cats. In addition to those on my Rover profile, you can also read my "A" reviews on Angie's List. I am licensed with the City of Oldsmar and insured through Pet Sitters Associates. And, when I have a little down time, I write for a pet parenting blog site. I look forward to providing exceptional service for your pets in North Pinellas, Westchase and The Eagles. Thank you! For me, there is nothing more rewarding than giving love to animals and receiving their appreciation. I pride myself on the ability to adapt and meet a challenge. For example, care for a dog that is blind, dislikes the rain, and pretends it’s swallowed its meds! And a cat that is timid, deaf, and allergic to plastic. Some dog breeds I’ve cared for include Shih Tzu, Beagle, Spaniel, Boxer, Labradoodle, German Shepherd, Akita and St. Bernard; kitty breeds include Bengal and Devon Rex; plus many blends and rescues. I strive to provide mental stimulation and physical activity, especially outdoors whenever appropriate. And, finally, if pets are motivated and happy, I’m happy! I telecommute part time either from my home or any other location of choice. A flexible schedule allows me to undertake pet visits throughout the day and at night plus weekends and holidays. I am available for short and extended visits and often stay at a client’s home 24/7.

Regina was a joy to work with. I knew my dog was in good hands right from the start.

We are so happy with the care Regina gave our senior dog, Oliver. Oliver's dietary issues require patience and flexibility. Regina managed this with careful consideration each day. We greatly appreciated the daily communication via texts and videos. Regina did an excellent job taking care of Oliver and our home as well. She took several steps to ensure professional service before and during her stay in our home with Oliver.

BEST fur baby sitter ever! She’s stayed in our home and loved our two large huskies a couple of times now! She sends us pictures/videos daily, communicates with us letting us know how they are doing, and keeps our house immaculate- no small feat with huskies! Great lady, so thankful we found her!

Without exception, I always have a meet-and-greet with a prospective client to become familiar with all aspects of a pet’s needs, the home itself and the neighborhood. It’s important to start developing a bond with the pet and understand its personality as well as a have good rapport with the “owner.” This is key to a successful relationship. I have experience with a wide range of breeds, from small to giant, and have no preference. They just need to be accepting of my presence and care.
Each sitter joining Rover needs to pass a background check. And by booking on Rover, you can get photo & message updates, 24/7 support, and reimbursement for eligible vet care.
