THE FROG HOP🐸 Drive the Frog.
Spend your shifts on one of the best beaches in America, meet people from everywhere, and get paid in tips by riders who are glad you showed up. No personal car needed — you drive ours.
Why drivers love it
Our vehicles, not yours
Vans, extended vans, trolleys and carts are company-owned and covered by our commercial insurance. No wear on your car, no gas out of your pocket on the island.
Shifts that fit your life
Mornings, afternoons, evenings or late nights in the Village. Tell us when you can drive and we build the schedule around it.
Tips, plus commissions
Riders tip in cash, by card and by app. Drivers also earn commissions on travel packages and sponsors they bring in.
Island life, every day
Beach, Village, sunsets and happy people. You are the friendly local face of Siesta Key — locally run since 2017.
What the job is
- Door-to-door rides anywhere on Siesta Key's 8 miles — the Village, Siesta Beach, Crescent and Turtle Beach.
- Airport (SRQ) runs and private charters for drivers who want them.
- A quick safety check on the vehicle tablet at the start of each shift; the tablet handles your route and pickups.
- Friendly service: help with bags and coolers, a few local tips, and a smile.
