Our Services: Holistic, Homestyle Pet Care for Dogs and Cats

At TheDoodPack, we believe in offering more than just a place for pets to stay. Our services are designed to create a home away from home, where each dog and cat receives personalized, loving care in a nurturing environment. By focusing on homestyle care, we avoid the traumas and stressors often associated with traditional kennel and pound environments. Our services include:

• Daycare: A safe and fun environment where your dog or cat can play, socialize, and stay active throughout the day.
• Boarding: Cozy, comfortable accommodations for overnight or extended stays, ensuring your pet—whether dog or cat—feels at home rather than in a sterile, impersonal space.
• Dog Walking: Whether it’s a stroll around the neighborhood or an adventure throughout Tampa Bay, our walks are tailored to your dog’s energy level and preferences.
• Drop-In Services: Quick visits to check on your dog or cat, provide feeding, ensure a bathroom break, and offer companionship, all in the comfort of their familiar environment.
• Training: Customized training sessions for dogs that promote positive behavior and build confidence, all within a supportive, stress-free setting.
• Rescue Relief: We provide temporary care for rescue animals—both dogs and cats—helping them transition smoothly into their forever homes with minimal stress and maximum comfort.

Our Commitment to Animal Rescue & Welfare

TheDoodPack Rescue’s nonprofit efforts go beyond basic care. We are deeply committed to ensuring that every rescue pet, whether dog or cat, receives holistic care that addresses their physical and emotional needs. Our approach minimizes the stress associated with traditional rescue environments and includes:

• Health Care: We partner with Veterinary Hospitals like the Animal Health Center and Gulf Coast Veterinary Center to address any health concerns, ensuring every pet is in optimal health, up to date on vaccines, and spayed/neutered before adoption.
• Socialization and Training: We provide essential skills to help pets integrate smoothly into new families, focusing on creating positive, enriching experiences.
• Background Checks and Home Studies: To guarantee each pet finds the best possible forever home, we conduct thorough background checks and home studies, ensuring a match that promotes long-term well-being.

Our Story: The Inspiration Behind TheDoodPack

TheDoodPack Rescue isn’t just fueled by the passion of our team but by our pack members as well! Parker, our rescue Husky who narrowly escaped euthanasia after several returns to the pound, Rory, our first foster-turned-family member, and Gus, the goofy orange tabby who inspired our DoodCat program are living proof of the power of second chances. Their stories, along with the dozens of other successful adoptions, drive our dedication to rescuing and rehabilitating both dogs and cats in need, ensuring that every animal that comes through our doors receives the compassionate, homestyle care they deserve.
