I'm still considering Tampa and doing all the research I can on pretty much everything! My question is what is the typical cost of pet care in the area. I tend to travel quite a bit so its actually important to figure out what things cost for my budget. I've paid as little as $45 up to $95 in different areas for pet grooming (small/medium size). Pet boarding has ranged from $35/night up to 60-$90/night(base prices) for a decent & clean place.


-Doggy Daycare daily cost? Does Tampa even offer good places for this?
-Over Night boarding cost?
-At home pet sitters per day?
-Cost of a dog walker? Per walk?
-Best places to get a pet groomed? Typical starting prices?

Thanks for any help

Home pet sitters from 17-25 per visit, that's what I have seen.
Doggy daycare, I have seen various places throughout the TB area but have no idea how much they charge since I don't use them.

There are quite a few places that offer daycare and boarding. This place has been around a long time and they charges are listed.
Tampa Dog Boarding and Daycare Prices at Camp Bow Wow® Tampa Airport

There are other places that are less some depending on the size of the dog. When I board my pets I usually take their food to prevent tummy troubles. I also usually pay less for taking their food so be sure to ask about that.

I took my yorkie to PetSmart for grooming but my vet also had a groomer.

My experience has been that most prices are comparable to those in VA (I just moved to FL in June). Daycare prices I have seen (and I have searched many places around Carrollwood, Temple Terrace, Forest Hills, etc) range from $20-30 per day. Overnight stays range from $30-40/night. Haven't tried grooming yet.
