Meet Maxine

After spending more than two decades caring for dogs of my own, I created Bajan Paws to offer the kind of boarding I would want for my own pets: quiet, personalized, and genuinely loving.

Every dog who stays here is treated like family because that's exactly how I believe boarding should feel.

I am fully insured and Pet CPR & First Aid Certified.

Where Dogs Feel at Home in Tampa

At Bajan Paws, we offer exclusive, in-home dog boarding designed to feel just like a second home. Located in Tampa, Florida, we specialize in small to medium dogs 40 pounds and under, offering a calm, low-stress environment where your pet can relax and be themselves.

Your dog isn't just another reservation—they are a welcomed guest in our family home.

Why Pet Parents Choose Bajan Paws:

  • One Family at a Time: Your dog(s) will never share a stay with unfamiliar dogs, ensuring 100% dedicated care and safety.

  • Tailored Routines: We follow their exact daily habits, from meal times and potty schedules to favorite sleeping spots.

  • Full Attention & Peace of Mind: Enjoy individual play, abundant affection, and daily photo/video updates while you're away.

Unlike traditional commercial kennels or high-volume boarding facilities, we prioritize intimate, personalized care so your best friend receives our complete, undivided focus.
