“Sam is an absolute gem!! I have worked with pet sitters for decades and never had as positive an experience as we did with her. She is not only punctual, thorough, communicative, and an absolutely lovely person, but she went above and beyond spending time with our cat Daisy, sending pictures and videos for each visit, and ensuring that she did everything she could to make our sweet girl feel loved and cared for in our absence. This is definitely a calling for her and we are so grateful to have met her. I would highly recommend Sam to anyone with any pet needs of any kind! She’s as good as it gets 🐾❤️”

“Brianna was wonderful for my dog Cody. He was peaceful and happy with her. She provided a safe environment. Cody is a nervous little guy and it is important to me that he is cared for by someone who is patient and understanding. I will definitely book with Brianna when I need a dog sitter again.”

About: Home away from home level love. Expect expert level care, with lots of love, play and snuggles! I only take a few dogs at a time, so that it doesn't get too crowded and everyone gets plenty of attention. We take puppies, seniors, cats, dogs, guinea pigs...you name it! I work from home, so I am rarely away from the pups on weekdays. Drop off times are pretty flexible. Pick up time ends at 8pm. I love when I have conference calls at home and the dogs make a cameo appearance. It makes everyone's day! I have a nice fenced in yard with shady spots throughout. There is a pool that the dogs can swim in if they want. I also have security cameras inside so I can check in when we are not home. Dogs love our doggie door for the freedom to come and go.
“To say Kratos had a great time with Venus and fur friends is an understatement ! I received updated statuses regularly and never once wondered what my lil land shark was up to. She gave him such a great balance of play time and quiet time. Her dogs are very kind and gentle with play time with my puppy. She was incredibly attentive and kept a watchful eye on our crazy pup. Kratos was heartbroken everyday to leave his fur friends behind when it came time to me picking him back up. I would request her to watch him again in a heartbeat ! Her place is his home away from home 💕🐶 I can’t thank her enough for the pawesome pet sitting she provided !”

“Julie + Brian are SO nice! Super sweet, kind, caring, and 100% dog lovers! Appreciate you and can’t thank you enough for taking such great care of my dog-ter!”

I'm on the first floor of an apartment complex with access to great walking routes and a minutes walk away from a great dog park. As a dog owner, I know how important play and exercise are and will make sure they're having a good time!

“Brittany and Stephen are very caring and did great with our 2 older pups. We appreciate them and they have made our pets feel safe and comfortable. We would recommend them to anyone for dog sitting or daycare.”

About: Hello! Our names are Alanna and Mark and we are both huge animal lovers. We have experience in caring for both large and small dogs, growing up with both. We currently have two senior dogs, one who is blind and deaf and a bunny! We are very used to administering medications and dealing with special needs dogs. Mark is Pet CPR certified. We will will happily take your pup for a walk, to the park, and provide tons of love and snuggles while you’re away! We will be happy to send you updates and keep you informed on how they are doing while you are away. We typically divide and conquer with one of us staying home with our pets while the other gives 100% attention to yours! We look forward to meeting you and taking care of your furry best friend. I work from home so your pup will almost never be alone! I go to the gym for about 2 hours in the evening but other than that I am home with them. I have a dog of my own as well as having grown up with dogs. I am an active foster for the Tampa Bay humane society as well as several other organizations. I am experience with puppies through senior dogs as well as giving medication and special accommodations. My back yard was designed with dogs in mind. We have a huge fully fenced turf outdoor area as well as a separate fenced dog park with a fire hydrant to allow us the ability to separate the dogs during outdoor time if needed.
About: I have owned eleven dogs in my lifetime, I have personally hand-delivered a litter of seven purebred puppies, raised and showed an AKC Champion.

About: Your pup is important! I want to make sure they are smiling and getting what they need. Walks, love, pats, food to make you comfortable while away. I am vigilant with walks and the heat. Always bringing water, finding the shade, and testing the ground to make sure it is safe for your pup. I can walk more than one dog at a time and if we need to avoid other dogs we do. I was a corporate girlie, now a WFH dog mom. I know how it feels leaving your pup while at work and getting home later than expected. I am taking pups (limited spots) for all day care in my home. I am also available for walks (morning, midday, and evening) and overnights everyday! I look forward to meeting you and your pup soon giving them lots of pats and love while you’re away! And photo updates of your fur baby are a must!! I’m in a house (with my 6 year old goldendoodle). He is well trained. Energetic. We go on multiple walks a day and when it’s cool outside play in the fenced in backyard. I make sure they are well hydrated, fed, and played with.

“Alyssa and Ace are so good for Bailey! Alyssa is so patient with her since she is very sensitive. Ace is great at showing Bailey how to 'dog'. I am so glad we found Alyssa & Ace to help us thru this journey with our sweet girl Bailey. :-)”


“Dian is fantastic. Responded quickly, made everything easy, and our pups loved each other. Nancy Drew didn't stop smiling from her big visit with Dian until she fell asleep. Will definitely use Dian again.”

“Karen has been dog walking for my handsome ol' man Chewbacca for a while now. It is easy to tell he is happier on the days she comes over. She is also thoughtful to get helpful feedback on how he is doing for the day, which is important as he is older and has had some illnesses. Karen also spends the time to give attention to my cats as well, including photos. I'm lucky to have her to take care of my Chewesph!”
“This was our second time using Stephanie as a dog sitter. She was accountable, trustworthy, and responsible. She sends the BEST pictures of our pets and they obviously love their time with her on walks. She is a pro at expressing our paralyzed dog’s bladder and fearlessly pushes him around town in his stroller. She is the best! I think my dogs love her more than me at this point.”

About: I have grown up on a farm in NC and have a lot of experience with large animals. That includes farm dogs, like my cattle dog Bill, and barn cats! I have raise Bill since he was a puppy during High School and it taught me a lot about animal training. So I have a good understanding of animals emotions and how to reciprocate to them effectively. I have also been a dog walker in my neighborhood for many year in middle and high school, so I understand how to respect others homes. I’m currently working in the mornings at my schools bike shop, but other than that my summer is wide open! My dog Bill lives with me and he’s an active dog but I tend to run with him in the morning. I have had experience dog walking and house sitting so my understanding of how to respect others homes when they are not there is well established.

About: I provide reliable, loving pet care with experience in dog walking, drop in visits and cat care. Your pets safety and happiness is my top priority. I am currently not working so I have open availability. Anytime of the day works for me. I also do not need much notice before a pet visit. I do not take pets to my house because I am currently living with a friend. In the future I will be doing pet sitting at my house or a clients house.
