Pet Sitting & Drop Ins in Northeast Macfarlane, Tampa, FL

“Ryan was so great! I have three dogs. Two pits and a rotty. My rotty is 13 and limps. He is who I worried about the most but Ryan was so patient with him, helped him up and gave him all the pets.”

About: I’ve cared for family pets and pets of friends for decades. I have a genuine love for dogs and animals in general. I know my dog would be much happier with a friend to play with during the days while I work and I’m sure your pup would love a friend too! I also enjoy dropping in to check on your beloved dogs and cats while they’re comfortable in their own home. I work from home and am able to watch after and care for your pet throughout the day. My dog is very friendly once she stops barking and loves to play with friends when they stay in our home. Potty breaks in our backyard are frequent. Your dog will be showered with lots of love in our home. I have a fully fenced yard with well maintained grass (no pool or other vegetation). I keep a clean house, and have a friendly (although loud at times) dog who loves to play. I can crate your pup as well if you wish. Animals are welcome on our furniture. When boarding small dogs that prefer sleeping in the bed, I have a bedside sleeper I can put them in with the side down. This lets them have the comfort of sleeping in the bed/with the humans and also provides them a safe space of their own. I do ask that your dog be up to date on their vaccinations and their tick and flea meds, potty trained and that you have a complete Rover profile. I provide attentive care for your animals and therefore I limit the amount of animals I will board. Dogs must be flee and tick free. I cannot board a dog at my house if they have flees or ticks. I will rarely accept daycare requests or drop-off/pick-up times outside of business hours, 7am-8pm. If you have an extenuating circumstance or are an existing client please reach out so that we can work on a mutually beneficial accommodation. I will be flexible for existing clients. If your daycare request is longer than 14 hours, I kindly request that you consider having your pet stay overnight via a boarding request. For new clients, an initial meet and greet will take place at a local dog park. This is for the safety of the animals as well as the safety of us individually. If you are not comfortable with an initial meet and greet in a public place, then I will not be able to do business with you. If we choose to work together I will provide you my address at that time. I am more than happy to have you swing by and check out my place where your beloved family member will be staying for boarding or daycare if you wish. I’m also more than happy to swing by your place if you wish prior to drop-ins to get the ‘lay of the land’. Thank you for understanding.

“Johnny truly goes above and beyond for your pet and the whole family. He is the best sitter we have ever had by far, there is no comparison. He pays attention to detail and truly does the best job.”

“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!”

“Shelby is an incredible sitter! He sent great updates and pictures of my sweet kitties and made sure to give them equal attention since they can be jealous. He was great about keeping their litter clean as well which is not an enjoyable job - I would recommend him to anyone looking for pet care!”

About: I’ve grown up around animals my entire life, and caring for pets has always been second nature to me. From an early age, my family had dogs of many different breeds, sizes, and personalities, which taught me how to adapt to each pet’s unique needs. Today, I’m a proud pet parent to a French Bulldog and a Bengal cat, so I truly understand how important it is to leave your pets with someone responsible, attentive, and loving. I know every pet has their own routine, quirks, and comfort zones; and I respect those fully. I treat every animal in my care as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, relaxed, and well-loved while you’re away. I believe pets thrive when they feel safe, understood, and loved. Whether it’s a long walk, playtime, quiet companionship, or just sticking closely to their routine, I tailor my care to what your pet needs most. My goal is to provide loving, consistent in-home pet care so your pets feel comfortable, secure, and happy in their normal routine. Pet care is already a natural part of my daily routine. I structure my schedule to make sure pets receive consistent attention, proper care, and quality time throughout the day, not just quick check-ins. I plan my days around feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and companionship, and I make sure each pet’s routine is followed as closely as possible to what they’re used to. Because I’m already caring for my own dog and cat daily, adding pet sitting fits easy into my routine. I’m dependable, organized, and intentional about being present, so pets in my care feel comfortable, secure, and well looked after from morning to evening. When caring for pets in their own home, my priority is keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow all feeding schedules, walk routines, playtime, and care instructions closely so pets feel comfortable and secure in their familiar environment. I provide attentive companionship, regular potty breaks or walks, fresh food and water, litter care for cats, and plenty of affection based on each pet’s personality. I also keep an eye on behavior, appetite, and overall well-being, and I communicate clearly with updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing. I’m respectful of your home, dependable with schedules, and committed to providing calm, reliable, in-home care while you’re away.

“Danielle was fantastic. Went above and beyond with communication and did a wonderful job with our pup. We will definitely keep in mind for future care and couldn’t be happier!”

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.

“Rachel was awesome! Had something pop up super last minute she was quick at responding and then most importantly was amazing with Enzo! Will 100% use Rachel again!”

“I would highly recommend Kelsey to care for your pets! She is extremely thoughtful in her care and went above and beyond, playing, and making sure my two cats were happy and loved while I was away. She provided photos and always kept us updated, so I had complete peace of mine while I was out of town. She is communicative, and was so caring with our cats!”

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.

“Ben was easy to communicate and coordinate with on a last-minute trip out of state. My newly adopted cat was not used to a visitor in the home and hid under the bed, but Ben talked with him about his day and brought him favorite treats to the edge of the bed, helping to familiarize himself and gain trust over the week.”

Charles H.

“Great experience! She was on time, communicated very well, and sent plenty of photos during the walk. I’ll definitely be booking with her again.”

Genesis D.

“Katie took such wonderful care of my cat, Nala! When I first left Nala in her care, she was incredibly shy and hesitant, but Katie's patience and attention really made a difference. By the time I came back, Nala had become so much more affectionate and trusting, which means the world to me. Katie went above and beyond in making sure Nala was comfortable, well-fed, and loved. I’m so grateful for the care she provided and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!”

“Matt is so amazing ! He’s been taking such good care of my pup and updating me constantly I’m so grateful for him. He was able to come the same day of booking and has giving me so much help with vet recommendations and any other questions I’ve had.”
