House sitting in Tampa 

Thinking about exploring Florida’s Gulf Coast and love the company of pets? You’ll love it here. Pet lovers connect with animals (and their humans), staying in homes around the world and caring for new furry friends along the way.

Yup, that means house sitting in Tampa could be just around the corner - by taking care of pets in the comfort of home, you’ll get a place to stay in Cigar City.

What’s house sitting like for our members? 

In this pet-loving community, travel means more than hotels and tourist traps. In fact, it’s the opposite. Animal lovers explore the globe, staying in local neighborhoods and making furry friends at every stop. Take a look at what our members Eion and Aislings had to say about their pet-filled travels.

“An animal makes anywhere feel like home and for us, when we are moving from place to place and country to country this feeling of home is so comforting.” - Eion and Aislings.

Wildlife and walkies 

If your Tampa house sitting adventure involves taking care of a new four-pawed, fetch-mad friend, you’ll be spoilt for choice when it comes to walkies. And if you love checking out local wildlife while you’re cat sitting, there’s nothing to stop you exploring the local spots perfect for strolling yourself.

With leashes on, head to Hillsborough River State Park for over 3000 acres of forest and river-side fun. Or if cycling is your thing, check out Flatwoods Conservation Park or Lettuce Lake Park if a dabble with canoeing sounds like fun. 

And naturally, say hello to the manatees, skates, rays and spinner sharks in the TECO station's warm waters via the boardwalk.

Tampa city life 

City exploring wouldn’t be complete without checking out your local dog-friendly spots (that’s if you’re taking after a doggo, or are simply a fellow canine enthusiast, of course).

You’ll be pleased to know that Tampa is packed with dog-friendly restaurants and cafes that’ll welcome your pooch pal with open arms, including SOG cafe, Ginger Beard Coffee and Buddy Brew Coffee. 

And after your refuel, why not head to a local dog park to let Fido run free and practice her fetch tekkers? Check out Picnic Island Beach, Rowlett or Queenie’s dog parks if you’re nearby. 

And if strolling local areas is your way to get a taste of the local culture, stop by the Ybor City neighborhood which is simply steeped in history.

Get your adventure started: house sitting in Tampa awaits
