Dolphin watching & sunsets on Old Tampa Bay

Introduction

Hi I'm Cathi. I live in beautiful Tampa Fl. I'm an Event Operations Manager & with face-to-face meetings returning. I'm finding that I'm needing to travel again. I have plenty of friends that will watch Petey (Petey's my dog). But would much rather have him stay at home with someone, than drop him somewhere. So that brings me here to THS.

Home & location

I live on the water in old Tampa Bay. The neighbor is called Bay Crest. It is a beautiful amazing friendly, boating community. The condo community is old, built in 1970. But well maintained. My Condo is not fancy. But the dock and the channel are about 8 ft from the screened patio and the pool is about 100 yards away. The condo is a 1st floor, 2 bedroom 1.5 bath, with a full-size washer & dry. When I moved back to Tampa a few years ago, I sold everything. So I'm still replenishing. I have the basics, sofa, chair big screen TV, I stream everything, so not cable box) and the guest/sitters bedroom is fully furnished and has a queen-size bed. But I don't not a lot of pictures or nik-naks. I do have a really great paddleboard & you are welcome to use it. Just ask that you please wash off the saltwater when you done. My place is 12 mins from Tampa International airport. About 20 mins from Raymond James Stadium. (Go Bucs) 20 mins from downtown Tampa, 20 Mins from Safety Harbor. (one of my favorite places) and about 45 mins to Clearwater & St Pete.

Responsibilities

Petey is the best boy. He super popular in the neighborhood & everyone loves him He is SUPER laid back, unless he sees a dolphin. I work from home so Petey gets more walks than most dogs. He gets a good long walk in the morning & will wake you up around 6:30 - 7am. We usually walk about 45 mins. Sometime longer depending on who we see on the walk. He gets breakfast after the morning walk. Then he gets a noon walk down the seawall. He will walk up & down the docks and lay under the oak tree for a few mins. (he's looking for dolphins). He gets treat after this walk. Then he take a another "business" walk around 5:30 - 6:00. Dinner around 6:30 - 7 and a final pee walk around 8:30 - 9:30 and gets a small cookie before bed. He also loves to play tug-war with rope toys. Remember he's a beagle so his only jobs are shifting, which is why his walks are so longs.. and he will eat ANYTHING he can so you have to watch what he's sniffing. Should you leave him to go explore. He's good for 6-7 hours on his own.
