Pet Sitting Colony Cove

“WOW! I mean wow! We went on a trip and left our fur baby behind for the first time. Hesitant about leaving him behind but Jeweliana made sure all of our worries were addressed. She sent plenty of updates via messages, pictures and videos. Absolutely wonderful communication and replied incredibly quickly. After the first day I knew we picked the right person to watch our baby. Absolutely going to be a return customer!”

“Charlayda, or “Layda” recently took care of our 4 dogs—2 11-mo olds, who sleep in the garage, are trained to bathroom on puppy pads, and a 4 and 5 year old who are totally family members who sleep on beds, love the outdoors, and live to please people! We went away for a military graduation for 6 days, and were nervous to use a “service” but our friend could not stay here, so we took a leap of faith with Rover and Charlayda. When she came for a Meet and Greet 4 days before we were leaving, we immediately could tell we were with a lover of dogs, someone knowledable who all 4 dogs quickly “took to.” All of our fears about leaving went away as she asked questions and took the time to get to know specifics about all 4. While away, we received photos, videos, and texts as requested. When we returned home, all the dogs were calm, happy, sat for treats better than before!, and we could just tell that Layda had earned an A++++ in every way. We never thought we could leave all of them. We were proved wrong!! She’s superb. We’re now thinking about a weekend away, something we considered impossible before!! We’re so grateful!!”

About: I’ve been a passionate dog lover my entire life, and most of my expertise comes from the rewarding experience of raising my own two dogs from the time they were puppies. Because of this, I am incredibly comfortable with puppy energy, establishing routines, crate training, and positive reinforcement. In addition to caring for my own pets, I have experience housesitting and doing drop-in visits for friends and family. I know how stressful it can be to leave your furry family members behind, which is why I prioritize clear communication, daily updates, and plenty of love and attention. I treat every dog in my care with the exact same patience and dedication I give to my own! I am currently off work and at home full-time, which means your dog will have my undivided attention! My schedule is incredibly flexible, allowing me to easily maintain your pup's regular feeding, potty, and exercise routines. Because I'm home throughout the day, your dog will rarely be left alone and will get plenty of companionship, frequent bathroom breaks, and playtime. Safety is my top priority. My home features both a fully fenced-in front yard and a fenced-in backyard, providing plenty of secure, enclosed space for your dog to safely explore and play. Inside, I have two large crates available if your pup prefers or requires crating for meals, bedtime, or quiet time. I am highly experienced in managing a structured environment, and I strictly follow all of your specific care instructions to ensure total peace of mind.

About: I have a wide range of experience with animals! I am comfortable with dog sitting or cat sitting. I feel comfortable giving baths, taking walks, puppy, play dates, cleaning up messes, and all the fun in between! I have been around animals my entire life and I’m a firm believer that they are the best part of our world. I have an open schedule! I am pretty flexible and can drop in anytime, so if you have any questions, just feel free to message me. I will provide a loving and caring approach to taking care of your pet! I am comfortable pet sitting, cleaning up messes, going for walks, and providing lots of love.

“Risa has been wonderful! I had to leave my Rocket for a short trip and she took care and attended to his needs while I was away. Will definitely book her again. :)”

About: I treat every pet as if they were my own and strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I naturally connect with animals of all personalities, including shy, anxious, senior, and high energy pets. I believe every pet is unique, and I take the time to learn their routine, preferences, and individual needs. I have experience caring for: • Dogs of all sizes, breeds, and ages • Senior pets requiring extra patience and attention • Cats with a variety of personalities and care needs • Rabbits and other small animals • Pets requiring oral medications and routine care • High-energy pets that need exercise and enrichment I also volunteer with the Jacksonville Humane Society on weekends, where I continue learning about animal behavior, handling, and enrichment while helping care for shelter pets. More than simply feeding or walking pets, I focus on building trust and creating a calm, low stress environment so they feel secure and happy while you’re away. You’ll receive regular updates, photos, and clear communication throughout each visit, giving you peace of mind that your pet is receiving attentive and compassionate care. As a college student with a flexible schedule, pet care is one of my favorite ways to spend my free time. I enjoy staying active with dogs on walks and spending quiet time with cats and other small animals. My schedule allows me to be available throughout the week, including many evenings and weekends, and I do my best to accommodate last minute requests whenever possible. I’m organized, dependable, and committed to providing consistent, loving care that fits seamlessly into your pet’s routine. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, and it’s a rewarding part of my day. I live in a spacious apartment that provides plenty of room for pets to relax and feel comfortable during their stay. I also have a friendly pet rabbit who is accustomed to being around people and other animals. For the safety and comfort of all pets, my rabbit stays in his own private room whenever I am boarding or caring for another animal. My apartment community also has a fully fenced dog park where dogs can enjoy supervised off leash playtime and exercise. Safety is always my top priority, and I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, preferences, and any special needs to help them feel secure, loved, and at home while you’re away. I provide regular updates, photos, and open communication so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is receiving attentive and reliable care.

“When you go away you want someone who you can trust and someone who will take care of your fur baby. Daisy was all of those things! Highly recommend!! Come back again:)”

“Emily did such an awesome job dropping in to take care of our two cats while we were away for a long weekend. My husband and I had been hesitant to travel the last year since they both had health issues and required daily medication. Emily restored our confidence that we can travel again and know our babies are getting the best care even when we're gone. She is wonderful! We will definitely book in the future”

Tara T.

“Alexis was literally so wonderful. We had a trip planned for months, and one of our cats was diagnosed with pneumonia right before we were set to leave. Alexis was comfortable administering medication, and sent such good updates about how everyone was doing. I was actually able to relax and focus on the tasks I needed to do on the trip. Will one hundred percent be recommending her to others!”

Ashley E.

“She really loves the animals.”

John Z.

“Dogs loved Maggie. She’s really sweet and cares about your pets and sends updates and pictures! Thanks Maggie!”

About: I have had a pitbull for about 4 years now and my girlfriend has a Maltese. I have yet to meet a dog that is not completely in love with me. I’ve fed, walked and cared for puppies all the way to 15 year old dogs. I am well rounded in caring for pets. I’m in the military and I’m currently off work for about 2 months. I’m available all day every day, 24/7. You can schedule anytime, don’t feel like you’re being a bother! I typically take my girlfriend and I’s dogs out in the morning around 7am, lunch time, dinner time and before we go to bed. Depending on the how the pups feel, we can go for mile walks or just a short trip around the block

“Samantha is a very respectful and polite lady. She asked me some of the relevant information I forgot to mention and asked what I'd like her to do to make sure we had the same goal. She checked in and out when coming and going and provided me with how the dog did. Great pick!!”
