Rooted in Expertise. Growing with Care.

About Us

Our Founder, Kathy, brings over 20 years of horticultural and landscape expertise to every project. With a B.S. in Horticulture from Iowa State University and credentials including:

  • ISA Certified Arborist (#FL5272A)
  • FDACS Certified Pest Control Operator (2004–2024)
  • Former FNGLA Certified Landscape Contractor & Horticultural Professional

Kathy has walked the walk from driving an F350 flatbed and learning to reverse trailers, to building a business from the ground up through persistence and pride. Her background is rich with technical knowledge, but it’s her genuine love of people and the outdoors that clients notice most.

As a female-led company in a traditionally male-dominated industry, Kathy has forged her own path with strength, grace, and good humor. Clients often say she brings a fresh perspective, and it’s not uncommon to see her chatting with other local landscapers—supporting the community, not competing against it.

Led by Experience and Heart

Since 2004, Tampa Bay Landscaping has provided full-service landscape management with a rare mix of technical expertise, reliability, and a personal touch. We specialize in maintaining large residential estates in South Tampa, delivering exceptional results that make outdoor spaces thrive year-round.

What sets us apart isn't just our attention to detail... it's the heart behind the work. We're not a massive operation churning out cookie-cutter services. We’re a close-knit team that truly cares: about our clients, about our craft, and about the people we work alongside.

Our Approach

Outside the [outside] Office

When she’s not managing landscapes, Kathy enjoys spending time with her husband and their extended families.

She fosters dogs through Hillsborough County Pet Resources Foundation, and loves cheering on the Lightning and Bucs.

Her guilty pleasures? Netflix binges, fashion blogs, tacos, pizza, mojitos, and her own home herb and vegetable garden.
