About: Hii, my name is Stephany! I am a senior at the University of South Florida majoring in Environmental Science & Policy. I will be in Tampa during the entire summer for whatever pet services you need! I have many years of experience with dogs, cats, birds, and rabbits. I have volunteered before at the Humane Society of Tampa Bay and at a local animal rehabilitation center in Orlando. I have experience with responsibilities such as feeding, walking, cleaning, and providing love and companionship. I have also have experience in administering special diets to animals and enrichment. I always keep my home cleaned and tidy and make sure to always keep my space pet-friendly. I will provide regular updates including photos to the owner since I know it can be hard to be away from your little one! I can’t wait to meet your pets! I am currently working part-time but I am available anytime before and after work to care for your pets. Other than that I am always at home and available. I have my own room, bathroom and lots of space out in the living room. When caring for dogs I have a small dog park available and have lots of accessible walking areas.
“We booked Elona at the last minute, because we came in town for a Jennifer Hudson concert. And let me tell you, she was AMAZING!!! She sent several pictures and updates throughout our doggy stay. We could tell that our dog enjoyed herself based on her behavior. Elona gives off good vibes and positive energy, which translate to being a great caregiver for animals. I would most DEFINITELY use her again, and would HIGHLY RECOMMEND her to anyone looking for an attentive and caring sitter.”
“I was a bit nervous at first because it was my first time using this app or leaving Diamond with anyone outside of my family, but boy was I happy I picked Windell. Not only was Windell responsible, reliable and on top with the daily updates and communication but he was extremely resourceful, kind and patient with myself as well as my little guy. He addressed each and every question and concern in a timely manner and went on and beyond to assure the safely and well being of my little buddy Diamond! Thank you Windell!”

“Pierre has no nearby "friends", so he enjoyed the other dogs at Janet's.He seems to play more at home now, and since it's getting cooler, we may go to the dog park on West Blvd (West & South in Carrollwood).

About: I’ve been caring for cats and other pets for over 5 years through pet sitting for friends, family, and neighbors. I’m reliable, patient, and attentive to every cat’s unique personality. Whether your cat loves to play or prefers quiet company, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, well-fed, and cared for while you’re away. I can also administer basic medications, clean litter boxes, provide daily updates with photos, and give plenty of affection and attention.

About: Dogs have been a huge part of my life since I was a baby. I've raised and cared for four family dogs over the years: Nala (Black Lab), Holly (Golden Retriever), and my current dogs, Lucy (Golden Retriever) and Millie (Black Goldendoodle). Through caring for my own dogs, as well as dogs for friends and neighbors, I've gained hands-on experience with feeding, walking, bathing, playtime, overnight care, cleaning up accidents, administering oral medications, and keeping dogs on their regular routines. I've cared for dogs of all ages, from young puppies to senior dogs, and have experience with potty training, anxious or shy dogs, high-energy pups, and large breeds. I pride myself on being dependable, patient, active, and incredibly affectionate. I truly love spending time with dogs, and nothing makes me happier than seeing a happy, comfortable pup. My goal is to care for every dog as if they were my own while giving pet parents peace of mind through reliable care, regular updates, and lots of love. I currently have a part time job and am a student at the University of South Florida so I have a pretty open schedule, and plenty of time to play with your pups! I work Tuesdays and Thursday mornings as well as every other weekend right now :) During every drop-in visit, my goal is to make your pet feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away. I'll follow your pet's normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, walks if requested, playtime, and plenty of attention and affection. I'm happy to administer oral medications, follow special feeding instructions, and care for pets with different energy levels and personalities. I know how important it is to trust someone with your pet, so I'll treat them like they're my own. I'll also send regular photo and video updates so you can see how they're doing and have peace of mind while you're away. I want every visit to be a positive, stress-free experience for both you and your pet.
“Jordan did a great job with our kitty! She was very prompt, followed all of the instructions left for Ruthie wonderfully, and did an excellent job communicating. She even sent the cutest pictures of our very pleased cat who was insisting on more pets and cuddles. I was very confident that our cat and home were in good, reliable hands. Jordan was thoughtful, professional, and showed a really kind heart for animals. Will be hiring again!”
“Erin was great with my boy! She was super attentive to and provided updates throughout our time away. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for excellent care for their dog while they’re away from home.”

She also kept us updated throughout the day with pictures which we loved! She was the first Dogsitter we’ve had since our pup is terrified of everyone and everything but she made us feel so comfortable and relaxed about everything!”
About: “I have experience pet sitting for friends and family, along with personally raising multiple dogs over the years. I’m familiar with daily care routines like feeding, walking, cleaning up, and making sure pets feel comfortable and safe. I’ve also cared for small animals, including a hamster, so I understand the importance of gentle handling and attention to detail. I treat every pet like family and make sure they get plenty of love, patience, and care.” “I have a pretty open schedule, so pet care fits easily into my day. I’m home most of the time, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention, keep up with their routines, and make sure they feel comfortable and not alone. I’m also home in the evenings, so they’ll have consistent care throughout the day and night.” In my home, pets are cared for in a safe, clean, and comfortable environment with plenty of space to relax and play. I have a large indoor area where pets can move around freely and comfortably, as well as a spacious back patio for supervised outdoor time. Pets will have access to regular potty breaks and exercise throughout the day, and there is a nearby dog park and walking trail for additional outdoor activity when appropriate. I provide cozy bedding, toys for enrichment, and treats (with owner approval). I also make sure pets stay on their normal feeding routine and follow any specific instructions given by the owner, including dietary needs or restrictions. If caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their established routine closely to help pets feel safe and maintain consistency in their environment. My priority is always to ensure pets feel comfortable, secure, and well cared for at all times.

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life and genuinely just love being around them. I’m very active, love going on walks, and your dog will definitely get plenty of attention and exercise with me! I’ll treat your pup like my own and make sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and loved while you’re away. I am currently a graduate student at USF with a consistent schedule.

About: I’ve had dogs since I was a little girl, and we got our first cat just a few years ago but they’ve seem to have fallen in love with me lol. My main concern is making sure your pet is happy and comfortable, doesn’t matter the situation. I’m very gentle with them and I always make sure to communicate or ask when necessary, I don’t want to assume and be wrong or not inform you if something happens. I am in college, I have classes 3 days a week, so I’m home quite a bit. I do not currently work so I’m typically free the remaining days. I volunteer/workout in my free time so I can be flexible! Just ask if a day/time works, I’ll do my best to accommodate! I’m in an apartment so I don’t have a lot of space inside. The complex does have a little fenced in dog area, and there are some dog parks in the area that I would be willing to go to if you have a more active pet. I don’t have anything toxic in the apartment, or in a place they could reach at least (medicines/rubbing alcohol, that sort of stuff). I also like going on longer walks, 20-30 min if the weather is nice.
“Christian was wonderful! Very friendly and patient with our dogs upon meeting them. Was able to help us with last minute walking needs. We will definitely continue to use his services and would absolutely recommend to others 😄”
“AJ has been walking both of our cane corsos for a few months - they are large and one of them takes a while to warm up to people. Through the whole process he has been patient, kind, and respectful and has gained the full trust and friendship of my big pups. He goes out of his way to make them comfortable and they just LOVE his walks, visits, and belly rubs. I couldn’t recommend AJ more.”
About: I’ve loved animals ever since I was little. I have a mischievous rescue chihuahua named Bolt and a sweet hearted chiweenie named Louie. They’ve been family members for over 7 years now. I have also volunteered at the SPCA taking care of their puppies and older dogs. I am currently working part time and am available to care for your animals most mornings and afternoons. I am usually available weekends as well! I live in a townhouse with plenty of room for animals with a park nearby. Most of the services I offer are drop ins, but I am very attentive to the details and instructions provided by my customers.

About: I've been caring for animals my entire life and have experience with pets of all ages, sizes, and temperaments. Through pet sitting, rescuing, and fostering, I've learned that every animal has unique needs and deserves patient, compassionate care. Whether I'm caring for a playful puppy, an energetic dog, a shy cat, or a senior pet, I make sure their daily routine stays as consistent as possible. I provide fresh food and water, clean living spaces, exercise, play, enrichment, and plenty of affection while always paying close attention to their comfort and well being. My goal is to help your pets feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away, giving you peace of mind that they're in caring hands. I work part time with a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide pet care seven days a week. Whether you need daytime visits, overnight stays, or even late night check ins, I'm happy to work around your pet's routine to make sure they receive the care and companionship they need. Your pet's safety, comfort, and well being are always my top priorities. I understand how stressful it can be to leave a beloved pet, so I also make it a priority to earn and maintain your trust. I'll follow your pet's routine, respect your home, and provide the level of communication that makes you feel comfortable. Whether you prefer regular photo updates, detailed messages, or even video calls, I'm happy to keep you connected and give you peace of mind while you're away.
“Nigel carried my "baby" home the other day because she couldn't make it back on her own. He let me know and checked back in with between visits to see if she was ok. I knew Nigel was special since he began helping me with my dog but he went above and beyond, carrying a 65 pound pit bull home instead of dragging her and using harsh commands. I'm so glad I found him! He is truly a gift.”
About: I always make sure the dogs feel loved whether it’s playing with them outside, taking them for walks, or just cuddling with them. I’ve always loved dogs and I will always make sure they’re safe. I am a college student so I do have classes but for most weekends I am free and I do have days off of classes. I always show them love with cuddles, I will play with them with their toys, take them for long walks, make sure they’re fed, give them treats if they’re being good or did tricks.

“Aspen is amazing! My dogs love her and I love that they are getting the exercise they deserve when I’m at work! I really appreciate the pictures from each walk and the updates on how far they walk! This is the beginning of a beautiful relationship 😊”
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for pets comes very naturally to me. I grew up in a home with multiple dogs — many of them rescues and foster dogs — so I’m very comfortable with different personalities, energy levels, and routines. I also helped raise and train puppies, giving me experience with younger dogs and basic training reinforcement. I’ve also helped care for senior dogs, including my own dog who lived to 17, so I understand the extra patience, attentiveness, and gentle care older pets may need. In addition to caring for my own pets, I’ve house sat and pet sat for families and friends for years, caring for both dogs and cats. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, cuddles, or simply keeping pets company while their owners are away, I always make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I treat every animal like they’re my own. I’m a recent college graduate and have a very flexible schedule this summer, so I’m available for pet sitting, drop-in visits, walks, and overnight care throughout the week. I currently work at a Pilates studio on Tuesday and Thursday evenings, but outside of those hours I’m available and able to give pets plenty of attention, care, and companionship. I always try to keep pets comfortable by maintaining their normal routines and giving them lots of attention, patience, and care. In a client’s home, I make sure pets are fed on schedule, get plenty of exercise and playtime, and feel safe while their owners are away. I’m attentive to each pet’s individual personality and needs, whether that means high energy walks, extra cuddles, or a calmer environment for senior pets. I also make sure homes are kept clean, secure, and respected at all times. My goal is to make both pets and owners feel completely comfortable and confident while in my care.
About: I’m a dogs best friend, I like walking and being outside as much as they do! I grew up in a dog household and then began caring for dogs in clients homes for over 15 years now. I’ve taken care of 5 dogs, 5 cats and 15 rabbits at one time in one household before! I’ve never trained my own pets but I’ve assisted with training by enforcing the clients training commands and wishes. Im in good shape and can hike or go for extra long walks if you have an active animal. I’ll love and treat your dog as if it were my own. I think dogs are the best listeners and I love to mirror their unconditional love. I have several references to put you in contact with per request. I have a flexible schedule right now and would love to fill my open hours with pet visits and dog walking. I’m often available for last minute bookings. I have a fully fenced in backyard available for your dog to run. I do not have my own crates so a crate would need to be provided if necessary.
“James did great with our anxious pup Baloo on their first walk. Baloo usually takes a bit to warm up to new people, but James gained his trust almost immediately. We did the walk together to help Baloo get acclimated, and I know they’ll have a blast alone on future walks!”
About: I grew up with having three dogs. And my job was to take care of them with my moms help. I also rescued the dog that I currently have.

I have a completely separate room if needed for solitude while boarding.
“Marcus is great with Ziva, my Belgian Malinois. He is very accommodating and I can tell she enjoys her stay! He sends updates and is always available to let me know how she is doing or answer questions. He is our go to local sitter after moving here this year. I am very careful who I leave with her with- her last sitter was our go to for 5 years before we moved to Tampa. I am glad we found him!”
“Gloria is a dog whisperer. From the looks of the pictures our little one has learned to get along with bigger dogs and is not so much afraid little kids anymore. He definitely had fun and he looks well cared for, never had to worry. We will book her again.”
“Thank you again for taking in Griffin on a last-minute request. It was awesome to receive daily pictures and it was the first time from any sitter receiving video of my dog. It was funny watching him play fetch with a new fur buddy. Thank you again, Ashley! Definitely recommend and will use again in the future.”
“This is my second time booking with Victoria and Mocha loves her! She’s super communicative and responsive. Friendly and professional which makes me feel comfortable leaving my baby with her. 10/10 would recommend to everyone!”
“This was the first time we used Ashley’s services and she was incredible. Lots of pictures and regular updates throughout the day. She help customize a plan that works for us. She communicates well and regularly, she is attentive and caring towards our pets, she arrives as agreed, and she is a kind person. 100/10 would recommend. Already booked her for additional services.”
“Our girl Lisa had a great time with Trevor. We had a meet and greet and the place was very clean. He's a great sitter. Trevor sent us frequent updates with pictures Lisa having a fun time, which put us at ease during our trip. He took very good care of Lisa and we'll definitely book him again next time”
“My little Jax is a non-street-smart explorer, so I really appreciated Sharii's fully fenced yard. Sharii sent me daily photos and a video, which was so comforting. It was clear that he felt happy and secure with Sharii!”
“Chante was great with the fur baby. She was in constant contact and very attentive. Communication was great and she took great care of my baby. Would definitely use her again.”
