How we do pet visits in Tampa Palms
Tampa Palms in New Tampa (Tampa, FL 33647): Tampa Palms is the original New Tampa master-planned community, opened in 1986 along Bruce B. Downs Blvd and I-75, with 28 villages, a private Arthur Hills golf course, five resident-only parks, an owners association and a community development district. Dogs walked on the boulevards and park trails; River Park along the Hillsborough River is the cool-weather walk, and summer walks run at sunrise and after 7 p.m. We live a few streets over in Cross Creek, on the same side of the county line.
A pet visit here is a full 30 or 60 minutes: out, fed, watered, walked, played with, and a photo sent before we leave. In summer the walks are at sunrise and after 7 p.m., because the pavement on a New Tampa sidewalk at 2 p.m. in July is too hot for paws, and in the rainy season the storms come through between 3 and 6 in the afternoon, so afternoon visits are timed around them. A midday visit in summer is a shaded potty break and fresh water, not a long walk. The community trails give the 60-minute visit somewhere to go.
Tampa Palms is 28 villages and is not gated as a whole; The Reserve has the only 24-hour manned gatehouse in Tampa Palms. Tell us your village at the meet and greet and, if it has a gate, add us to your guest list before the first visit. The amenity center is resident-fob restricted, so if you want us at the pool or clubhouse with your kids or your dog, we need your fob. Overnights in your own home ($95/night) keep the routine intact when you travel, and multiple drop-ins on the same day cover a long workday.

Yes. Book multiple drop-ins on the same day and space them however the dog needs. Puppies get extra potty breaks, and senior dogs get a slower pace and a check on water and comfort. Medication is given only as you have pre-portioned it.

Yes. New Tampa (Tampa, FL 33647) is where we live and Wesley Chapel, FL is where most of our visits are, so Tampa Palms sits inside the area we cover every day.
