Dog Friendly Homes Are Driving Homebuying Decisions in East Pasco County, Florida
More homebuyers are choosing where to live based on their dogs, not just square footage, finishes, or floor plans. Across East Pasco County, including San Antonio Florida, Dade City Florida, and Wesley Chapel Florida, dog friendly homes are in higher demand than ever.
In this video and blog post, I explain how owning a dog influences homebuying decisions and what buyers should think about before choosing a home. Your dog is not an afterthought. For many buyers, they are family.
Why Dogs Are Changing How People Buy Homes
Homebuyers are no longer just asking how many bedrooms a house has. They are asking real lifestyle questions like whether their dog will have room to run, if the yard is secure, if there are sidewalks and walking paths nearby, and if the community is truly pet friendly. These factors often matter more than cosmetic upgrades. A beautiful home that does not work for your dog usually does not work for you either.
What to Look for in a Dog Friendly Home
If you are buying a home with a dog in San Antonio Florida, Dade City Florida, or Wesley Chapel Florida, here are some of the most important features to consider: fenced or fence friendly yards, durable flooring such as tile or luxury vinyl, walkable neighborhoods with sidewalks, nearby dog parks or open green space, larger lots or quieter streets, and pet friendly HOA rules and community features.
I help buyers evaluate these details before they fall in love with the wrong house. That saves time, money, and frustration.

Meet the Puppies in the Video
Yes, the puppies absolutely steal the show. The dogs you see in this video are fosters, and all of them will need homes. The seven puppies were temporarily named after places and landmarks on and around the Saint Leo University campus. Living in San Antonio Florida next to Saint Leo and being a proud Saint Leo alum, it felt like the perfect way to give a little local love to both the pups and the community.
