About: I’ve had a dog ever since I was 12 and want a dog of my own someday. My family and friends over the years have trusted me to walk/feed/play with their dogs when they are away. I have also volunteered at animal shelters in TN to tend to dogs in need and to give them love while they wait for their forever home. As far as cats go I was raised around cats and have a cat of my own. I’m currently working a full time job but with open weekends when I’m not traveling myself! Tuesday-Thursday I can do dog walks in the early morning or evening. On Mondays and Fridays I can check in whenever needed. On the weekends I am available whenever you need me. When all else fails just message me and we can work something out my work is flexible:) I love to play with animals or just hangout/chill with them based on their personality and your preference. I’m respectful of their space and play within their rules whether that’s fetch, tug of war, or with their feather cat toy etc. making sure they are comfortable and safe while their best friend is away.

“Kelsey is amazing! We’re new to the area and are so happy we finally found a pet sitter we can trust! Our kitten liked her right away. Kelsey is accommodating, respectful, and someone you can 100% trust to take care of your pets. Highly recommend.”

About: I began dog walking for my neighbors at 8 years old and helped take care of my family’s french bulldog throughout elementary, middle, and high school. Given her high care needs, I have experience in caring for senior dogs and am able to give them medication. I have pets-sat for families with dogs, cats, and bunnies. Growing up I also had a hamster and guinea pigs of my own! I love doing the “Doggy Day Out” at my local shelter where I get to care for a shelter dog for the day and would love to give your furry friend that same experience. I’m currently working a part-time job and am a full time college student. My busiest times are between 10am-2pm but I can easily fit your pet into my schedule aside from that. I have no classes Tuesdays and Thursdays so if those are your preferred days I will be sure to arrange my work schedule to cater to your furry friends needs! Weekends I am fully free and during the summer/school breaks will be a prime time for pet care considering I am staying in Tampa while most college students go home! I cannot currently board pets until May 2026 as I am still living on campus but once I have a home of my own, I will update this section!

“Extremely reliable and spectacular communication. No doubt our puppies will miss her until we book her again for our next out-of-town travel :)”

“We love Salina. She has taken care of our grumpy old Siamese several times now and always does an excellent job. She also provides detailed reports and pictures of her time. Extremely dependable and goes above and beyond.”

“Jennifer was awesome! We had a very last minute work schedule conflict and my boyfriend and I both weren’t going to be able to feed our dog at his normal breakfast time. Jennifer was so flexible and awesome and pulled through with a last minute booking for us to give us peace of mind that his normal feeding schedule wouldn’t be impacted by our crazy work schedules. 10/10 service and would book again!”

About: Hi everyone, My names Ellana! Im currently 20 years old and absolutely adore animals! I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 7 years old and currently have a frenchie of my own back in MN! Being away from home can be tough at times but spending time with animals is really an escape for me. I love all dogs from big to small, I do have a little bias for all breeds of bulldogs though, they are my fav! I am currently looking into going into canine physical therapy as a full time role for my future:) I’d love to help out as needed so please send me a message! I am a very active student so I love being able to give dogs the time outside that they need. That being said I am always willing to stay in for some cuddles. I have weekends off from all class and job requirements so I like to fill those times with some furry friends! I have my own room and plenty of space and capacity to take dogs on adventures via car or walk! I love spoiling pups when they are with me.

About: I am an avid volunteer at the humane society, and have owned many pets in my life. I love animals and now that I am pet less, I would love to interact with others pets! Looking to work part time, primarily available thurs-sun, but super flexible for the rest of the week! I can accommodate to your needs! Reach out I’d love to chat! I love walking, playing, or just relaxing. I am attentive to your pets needs. I spend a lot of time at the humane society so I am versed in all different energy levels, and care needs.

“You can tell Summer really cares about animals and she had so much patience with my senior dog! She did a great job with updates and checking in with any questions!”

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and caring for them has always come naturally to me. Growing up, I was the first person my parents’ friends trusted to watch their dogs, and that hasn’t changed as an adult—I’m still the friend who’s always excited to dog-sit. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and temperaments. My family currently has a mix of breeds, including French Bulldogs, a Bernese Mountain Dog/St. Bernard mix, and a Bernese–Mini Poodle–Swiss mix, so I’m used to both high-energy playtime and calmer, structured care. I treat every dog like they’re my own and focus on making them feel safe, cared for, and comfortable while you’re away. My main availability is weekends and Friday nights. I work 9:00–5:30 on weekdays but am happy to help with morning or evening care when needed. I focus on providing a calm, relaxing environment and building trust with every dog I care for. I like to take time getting to know each dog and letting them settle in at their own pace. Once we’re both comfortable, we spend time hanging out, playing, and going for walks based on their energy level and routine.

About: I have provided professional loving care for all breeds of dogs and cats (and other animals) of all ages for decades! I am very patient, trustworthy and reliable and as a Florida native I can handle anything that comes up! You will have peace of mind that your pets and your home will be well taken care of. I keep your house meticulously clean and love to bond with your fur babies and send gorgeous portraits of them to you while you are away! I am a traveling dog and cat sitter which allows me to give full time loving worry free care to your beautiful pets while you are out of town. I stay at your home while you are away which allows me to provide full time care and companionship to your pets while caring for your residence.

“Absolutely amazing! Natalie did more than asked and followed instructions perfectly. She was very communitive while I was away for a whole week. She played with kitties and they loved her!! Recommend.”

“Chloe watched my 2 kitty babies while I was out of town and she was absolutely incredible! They’re usually really shy and hide but they warmed up to her right away. She always fed them on time and took the time to give them extra pets and treats. She’s super communicative and very friendly and professional. Highly recommend and will definitely be hiring her again!!”

“Daphne was fantastic and kept us up to date on our dog while we were gone! We even had a vase of flowers that somehow got spilt while we were gone and she cleaned all the water up without even saying anything to us. Thank you so much!!!”

About: I have been a sitter for neighborhood dogs (from puppies to seniors) for over 5 years now. I have also had experience with shy dogs that are not always energetic and willing to be patted but with time those dogs have also been amazing to work with. I owned a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel for 14 years (who passed away from old age), whom I loved dearly. I have a pretty flexible schedule. I wake up early to go swimming every morning but am otherwise available for daytime and afternoon walks and doggy daycare. I live close to Riverwalk which is a great place for walks with your furry friend. I am always cautious about the heat during the summer when walking dogs so I will always bring a water bottle on our walks.
