“Virginia is hands down the best dog sitter ever! My pup Kiwi absolutely adored her—he was more excited to see her in the morning than me in the afternoon! 🐶 She sent tons of pictures and videos throughout the day, which made me feel so at ease. Kiwi also became best friends with her sweet dog, Cozy, and it was the cutest thing watching them play together in the videos she sent. It was clear she treated Kiwi like her own, with so much love and care. I would 100% trust her again and will definitely be coming back to her. Highly recommend!😊”


“Amanda and Matthew were excellent! When I dropped Xoey off, Amanda was welcoming and invited me to see her home where Xoey would be staying. Their pup is just the sweetest and got along great with mine! I could tell they provided great care to my baby and I wouldn't hesitate to book with them again next time we're in the Tampa area!”



“Lori is amazing as always! I have a new puppy and Lori took great care of her like she has her big sister for so many years. Both my older dog and my puppy literally drag me into Lori's house because they love her and her family sooo much! It's really great! Thank you Lori! You truly are the best of the BEST! 😊”


About: Hi, I’m McKay—lifelong dog-lover, proud pup parent (George, Golden Retriever, 80 lbs), and now working from home full-time. With 20 years of experience caring for dogs of all ages and sizes, I create a loving, structured, and fun-filled atmosphere in my apartment home. I work from home Monday - Friday and am available for drop in visits, daycare or boarding for your fur baby. As a dog mom myself, it's easy to incorporate another pup into my day-to-day. I’ll treat your fur baby just like my own: - Constant attention and supervision while working remotely - Frequent potty breaks (every 4–8 hrs) and daily walks/playtime in safe neighborhood or fenced area - Positive reinforcement and gentle handling - Regular photo updates and open communication so you’re always in the loop

They were so accommodating - and sent regular updates and pictures throughout their stay. Xena was in her glory as she got to enjoy the pool. The dogs all seemed to get along so well, and when we picked up the girls, they were very happy and very tired from an exciting day. We can’t wait to bring them back and we highly recommend them.”

About: With a lifelong love for animals and years of hands-on experience, I’ve been caring for dogs since I could walk myself. Growing up in a dog-loving home, I’ve raised and cared for pups of all sizes, temperaments, and energy levels—from high-spirited puppies to seniors needing extra patience and love. As a dedicated pet walker, I treat every dog like family—making sure they feel safe, exercised, and genuinely cared for. I understand canine body language, respect each dog’s unique personality, and prioritize their health, happiness, and routine. Whether it’s a walk, or just some reassuring company while you're away, your pet is in loving, experienced hands. Pet care is simply part of my lifestyle—it's how I start and end every day. As a pet parent to both a dog, my routine already revolves around feeding schedules, daily walks, playtime, and giving them the attention they need to stay healthy and happy. I wake up early to make sure my dog gets a good morning walk and my cat gets her morning care and stimulation. Caring for animals is second nature to me, and because it's already part of my personal life, incorporating other pets into my day is a seamless and natural extension. Whether it's walking, feeding, or just spending time with them, I truly enjoy every moment I get to care for animals. I completely understand that leaving your pet with someone new can feel like a big leap—that’s why I treat every animal in my care like my own. My home is pet-friendly, calm, and safe, with plenty of space, routine, and attention to make your dog or cat feel comfortable and loved. Having a dog of my own, I know how to create a peaceful environment where pets feel secure. I'm experienced in reading body language, managing introductions, and making sure everyone gets the care and space they need. Whether your pet is playful, shy, or somewhere in between, I tailor the experience to their personality. I also keep pet parents updated with messages, photos, and videos, so you’re never left wondering how they’re doing.

About: I grew up with dogs and I always love helping out my friends and family when they need pet sitters or walkers. I helped my parents' dog recover and rehabilitate from an ACL reconstruction surgery. I am a medical professional who is experienced in emergency situations. I am in an apartment near the Manatee River with my girlfriend and puppy, Flynne. Flynne loves making friends with new dogs and puppies. I work during the morning into the afternoons as of now. I'm pretty free most days after 1pm but would try to make things as convenient as possible for you and your pup. Near my apartment complex is a beautiful trail along the Manatee River. I have a lot of space to walk away from traffic and avoid the busy streets.

“Such a sweet person and will make sure you get updates of your dog!! She took such good care of my puppy I recommend her 100% with how caring she is to anyones dog!! She treated my puppy like her own!”


“Keith clearly loves dogs and did a wonderful job with my French Bulldog. Will not hesitate to utilize Keith again.”


About: I have been surrounded by dogs ever since I was young. I have experience with watching relatives dogs, and I take care of my dog everyday. I currently attend school and I don’t have class on Tuesdays and Thursdays so I will be very attentive to the animal. I also only have class for a couple of hours when I do. There is a play area for dogs because my apartment is dog friendly. The area is very safe and the dog will be taken great care of.
