About: I’ve taken care of dogs of numerous breeds since I was 12 years old. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to walk and feed their dogs. Dogs can sense my good nature, and feel safe and comfortably being handled by me, and they’re usually not reluctant to share affection with me. 😊 I have 4 days off per week to care for pets. The other 3 days I work 6 hours fairly close to my house so I can return home quickly. I have a large fenced yard with plenty of room for your pet to explore and release all of its energy. I also like going on walks. I’m happy to provide attention to a pet that needs it in the home. I will pet and play fetch or other games as needed.

“Hermun was AWESOME! My dog Periwinkle loved staying with her and didn't want to leave. Her beagle Max was such a beautiful and fun-loving companion for my beagle, making her feel right at home. Hermun was so flexible and kind. She sent me happy pictures throughout Periwinkle's stay, making me feel like I made the best choice in picking her. I would highly recommend Hermun as dog sitter. She made the weekend wonderful. 5 stars! No...make that 10 stars!”

About: I’ve been caring for dogs on and off since I was about 12 years old, from pet sitting for friends and family to helping care for dogs at my boyfriend’s family’s dog kennel in Virginia. I’m comfortable around dogs of different sizes, breeds, ages, and personalities, and genuinely love spending time with them. I’ll treat your pup like they’re my own and make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and love while you’re away!

About: I’ve had dogs for 20 years. I used to volunteer for the SPCA to help walk, bathe, clean and train dogs. I really enjoy working with dogs and figuring out what makes them happy! I’m currently taking classes and have loads of time for walking, boarding, or going to your house to take care of your animals. I look forward to meeting them!

About: I have been dog sitting since I was about for about 7 years for neighbors and friends. I have also walked my elderly neighbor's dog for them when they were unable to. I am currently working full time but I love to go on long walks in my spare time! I enjoy being outside and meeting new fur babies. Depending on how you request, I could meet you at your front door or come into your home to retrieve your fur baby to take them on a walk. I do understand that living in Florida where is mostly hot and humid and some dogs cannot handle the heat or become exhausted easily. However long you request to have your dog walked I will bring a water bowl for your pet to stay hydrated. :) I am currently working full time but I am trying to open up my schedule more by the end of summer. But I am currently available on the weekends and some days during the week. I can be flexible to just message me and I will let you know! Walking your dog around your neighborhood where your fur baby is familiar is important to me! I will make sure your fur baby has plenty of water and time to enjoy themselves on our walk. For drop ins I will sit with your baby as long as is needed. Making sure they get cuddles, stimulation, meds, and just some human time.

“Silvana was wonderful. I received daily pictures and updates and came home to happy cats. I was very comfortable leaving my fur babies in her care and would highly recommend her for pet sitting needs.”
“Katelyn did an excellent job taking care of my kitten Willow! Katelyn was very communicative and sent me updates with photos for each visit. Seeing Willow so happy and well cared for put me at ease on my trip. I would definitely recommend Katelyn and would book her again.”
About: I've been around dogs my whole life, not just as a sitter, but as someone who has shown up for them. I raised my own dog from puppyhood all the way through her senior years, and I was there for every stage in between. I also cared for my roommate's elderly dog who had one ear and cataracts, making sure he felt safe, comfortable, and loved every single day. Now I have a rescue pup of my own, so I understand firsthand the patience and heart it takes to care for a dog with a unique background. As a former D1 athlete, staying active is just part of who I am, which means your dog will always get a real walk, not just a quick trip around the block. Whether your pup is young and energetic or older and needs a gentler touch, I know how to meet them where they are. Your dog deserves someone who genuinely cares, and that's exactly what I bring every time! I recently moved to Tampa and love making pet care a core part of my routine here. My schedule is flexible, so I can work around your pet's needs, whether that's an early morning walk, midday visit, or an afternoon outing. I'm passionate about staying active, and getting outside with a dog is one of my favorite parts of the day, so the more time we get together, the better! When I'm in your home, I treat it with the same care and respect I'd want for my own. Your pet's routine, comfort, and environment stay exactly as they know it! I work around their schedule. I make sure they're secure, stimulated, and never left feeling unsettled. With experience caring for senior dogs with special needs, I'm attentive to the little things that make a big difference, whether that's medication reminders, mobility limitations, or just knowing when a dog needs quiet time vs. playtime. Your home and your pet are in trustworthy hands.
“Riley was awesome! We had a bit of trouble getting her keys to our apartment ( a huge miscommunication with our leasing office ) and she was flexible with helping us get a set of keys to her. We loved to see the pictures and the written updates about how the cats were doing! Would definitely book with her again.”
“Arlinda is amazing and took such great care of our three kitties while we were out of the country. She checked in with us each day and always made sure to communicate any changes around the house or with the cats. Would absolutely recommend her to anyone needing pet care in Tampa!”
About: I grew up having 3 dogs of my own. I have dog sat since I was a child and used to bike to houses around my neighborhood to take my neighbors dogs out on walks and to feed them. Growing up with dogs helped me understand their needs and wants. I had 2 Labrador Retrievers that were on different spectrums, one loved to be outside and only wanted to come in to sleep another used to lay around all day and hated being outside. My Puggle (pug and beagle mix) was a ball of energy and wanted to do and be wherever you were. I was the main person in charge of my dogs growing up, I took care of them majority of the time and considered them my best friends. My family currently has 2 dogs, a Labrador Retriever and a Puggle. When my parents are on vacation I happily take care of them. I work remotely during the work week, except for Mondays. I have a flexible schedule that allows walks throughout the day, along with all day care. I currently live in an apartment with a dog park right down the stairs. I do have an elevator if needed for less wear on their joints. My apartment is very spacious with a balcony for people watching.
“This was my first time utilizing this platform and for my puppies to be watched by anyone but family. I’m not going to lie, was initially nervous about it, however Anthony quickly squashed any reservations. Just from him taking the extra time a day prior to walk the home and perform a meet and greet with the pets, consistently staying in communication, providing pictures and asking for additional ways he could help ensure the puppies would not feel lonely. I fully recommend anyone that is very particular about there four legged family members :) give Anthony a chance, you won’t regret it.”

“I can’t say enough good things about Michelle. My dog is super anxious, so I was really worried about leaving her in someone else’s care—but the minute Michelle opened the door, Mabel ran right in. It was an instant bond. Both Mabel and I could immediately feel Michelle’s warmth and kindness. I felt completely at ease knowing she’s an experienced dog sitter and that Mabel was in such good hands. When I picked Mabel up, she was calm and happy. Now, whenever we go back, Mabel runs straight through the door, so excited to see her—which says everything.”

About: We are lifelong animal lovers with over 30 years of combined experience caring for pets. Jeni grew up with German Shepherds and has always had a dog in the home.

About: I am an absolute pet lover! Any time I see a dog, I stop and bond with it. We had a miniature poodle for over 17 years, who I miss daily. I have a special way with animals and shower them with love! I work from home, so I have flexibility! Because I create my own schedule, I can make sure to prioritize a pet’s needs and give them my full attention! I am very devoted to all animals I care for. They have my full attention and become my priority for the time I care for them.
About: Dogs have been part of my life since the day I was born. There’s never been a time I didn’t have one by my side. I’ve cared for dogs of all ages, from playful puppies to sweet seniors, and every stage in between. I also have experience with dogs of all sizes, from tiny puppies to 110-pound gentle giants. My dogs have always meant the world to me, and I bring that same love and attention to every pet I care for. When your pet is with me, they’re treated like family. Pet care fits into my everyday life pretty naturally because I genuinely love being around animals. I’m used to regular walks, feedings, playtimes, and nap times. It never feels like a chore it’s just a regular part of my day! I always want to ensure the best possible care for your pup so if there is anything I should know prior to a visit that would be very useful!
“Voici une version corrigée : Kierra was absolutely amazing with Lucky! She took such great care of her and kept us updated with photos and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind. It was clear that Lucky was happy, comfortable, and well loved while he was with her. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter and would definitely book with Kierra again. Thank you so much!”

“Jennifer was a life saver after there was a maintenance emergency / apartment was not safe to leave my dog in for the day, and I had to be at work on short notice. Jennifer and her partner were so sweet and loved on Milo while I was at work, sending picture updates throughout the day. Thank you both so so much.”
“Kiley was amazing and took such good care of my dog Nike! We met her dog Skylar right out the gate and I could already tell Nike and her were going to get along just fine.

“Sydney was the absolute best with our little cockapoo baby, Lia. I was nervous coming from NY, not knowing anyone in the area. She reassured me Lia would be in great hands and did not disappoint. She gave her walks (they saw dolphins 🥰), potty breaks, helped our Lia become comfortable around another pup and new surrounding. Checked in and sent pics throughout the day. If you are ever in the area, I highly recommend her. Lia will definitely be back to visit ❤️ thank you so much Sydney”

About: I’m a recent graduate from the University of Tampa! All my life, I’ve loved animals—they bring so much joy and happiness into our lives, and I’d love the opportunity to give that same love and care to your precious pup! 🐾 My family and I have two French Bulldogs, each with completely different personalities—one is full of energy, while the other is more relaxed and laid-back. Having experience with both has taught me how important it is to understand each pet’s individual personality, routine, and needs. I’ve been providing pet care for several years and have had the opportunity to build lasting relationships with many wonderful pets and their families. I know how difficult it can be to find someone you truly trust to care for your pets while you’re away on vacation, traveling, or simply out of town. Don’t worry though, you came to the right person! 🥰 I’m available throughout the week and on weekends, and I’m happy to provide plenty of photos and updates so you can feel comfortable knowing your pup is happy, safe, and well cared for while you’re away! I currently have a 2 French bull dogs who are two are just 2 different characters! One is less maintenance, living to sleep and hang around all day while the other is super rambunctious. He loves belly rubs, frequently gets bursts of energy w/ the zoomies , loves treats and lots of attention so my family and always do our best to keep him active and in shape; Walks, Carrides, Jazz Music, Tv and Activities with toys tend to tire him right out. With a puppy, I know it can be a struggle but with the right methods, everything will slowly fall in to place. We of course always make sure he is well fed and constantly taken out.

I’ll treat your dog with the same patience, attention and care I give Moon and Pearl—and make sure you can feel confident they’re in good hands. Although my wife is in my profile photo, I will be taking care of your pups independently. My wife and I have two dogs of our own, Moon and Pearl, so caring for dogs is already a big part of my everyday life. I have a flexible schedule and am available for walks and drop-in visits throughout the week. I enjoy being active and outdoors, and I’m happy to tailor walks to your dog’s normal routine, pace and energy level. Although my wife is in my profile photo, I will be taking care of your pups independently. As a longtime dog owner, I know how much trust it takes to put your dog—and access to your home—in someone else’s hands. My wife and I feel the same way when someone cares for Moon and Pearl. I’ll take the time to learn your dog’s personality, routine and your specific instructions, and I’ll always treat your pet and home with respect. On walks, I stay attentive to your dog, our surroundings, traffic, other animals and anything that could affect their safety or comfort.
About: I've been caring for dogs for years and understand that every dog has a unique personality and routine. Im patient, reliable, and attentive to each pets needs, whether thats long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply providing a calm and safe environment. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I'll care for yours with the same love and attention I give my own dog. My schedule is flexible, allowing me to provide reliable walks, drop in visits, and plenty of attention throughout the day. I always do my best to accommodate each pet's routine and keep owners updated while they're away. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always follow each pets routine, respect the owner's instructions, and make sure they have plenty of attention, exercise, fresh water, and a safe environment. I understand that every pet is unique, so I take the time to make them feel comfortable and cared for. I'll also provide regular updates and photos, so you can have peace of mind while you're away.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of numerous breeds since I was 12 years old. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to walk and feed their dogs. Dogs can sense my good nature, and feel safe and comfortably being handled by me, and they’re usually not reluctant to share affection with me. 😊 I have 4 days off per week to care for pets. The other 3 days I work 6 hours fairly close to my house so I can return home quickly. I have a large fenced yard with plenty of room for your pet to explore and release all of its energy. I also like going on walks. I’m happy to provide attention to a pet that needs it in the home. I will pet and play fetch or other games as needed.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs on and off since I was about 12 years old, from pet sitting for friends and family to helping care for dogs at my boyfriend’s family’s dog kennel in Virginia. I’m comfortable around dogs of different sizes, breeds, ages, and personalities, and genuinely love spending time with them. I’ll treat your pup like they’re my own and make sure they get plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and love while you’re away! When I’m not traveling for work, I work from home full-time, so I’m able to give your pet plenty of attention throughout the day! My schedule is flexible for walks, potty breaks, playtime, feeding, and lots of company. I only accept bookings when I know I’ll be home and able to give your pet the time and care they deserve. I live in a spacious apartment in a gated community with plenty of room for your pet to feel comfortable and at home. Since I work from home, pets are rarely left alone for long periods. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine, feeding schedule, walking schedule, and any specific instructions you provide. Their safety and comfort are always my priority.
“Our dog, Archie, had a good time at Michael's when we left him for the weekend, and Michael was easy to communicate with and sent us updates and pictures on how things were going over the weekend. I'd recommend!”
“Emory and Quinn were fantastic. They are great with our older but energetic dog and provided lots of pictures and updates throughout the stay. They went above and beyond for us when we had delays getting back home on time.”
“Pleasant and cooperative. My dog enjoyed hanging out with other dogs. We came home early and he asked Rover for a refund for us. Which was not necessary but was kind.”
“Samuel took wonderful care of Coco. Communication was great from the start, and he kept me updated with photos and videos, which I really appreciated. His home and location were perfect and made drop-off easy, and Coco was comfortable right away. She’ll definitely be back—she already misses him!”
“Silvana and her family took great care of Pilot! She was very flexible and available. Updated us on his care with texts and photos. Took him on daily walks. Special thanks to her son, who shared his bed with pilot;)! Would definitely use her again. Thank you!”
“Matt watched Luna for 10 nights while my family and I traveled for the holidays. Luna was well taken care of and came home happy and healthy. We would definitely consider using Matt again for overnight pet sitting.”
“Viviana was great with Milo! They had a routine down and she treated him like her own. Milo sometimes won’t eat in new places and she did her best to get him to eat. She even used some wet food she had, which was really appreciated. Will definitely book again with Viviana when we need it!”
“Madelyn watched our dog over the long weekend and was great! Our dog is a bit nervous but warmed up quickly and had a great time playing in the backyard with Madelyn’s dog! She sent lots of pictures each day to check in too which was great!”
