We've hired Rae on multiple occasions to do drop ins to let our pup out. He has just a good time! And she's even brought rain jackets out when it was raining - it was adorable!

Katie is so amazing with animals! My dog Charlie warmed right up to her on our first meet & greet and I felt comfortable leaving him in her care. I will forever request Katie any chance she’s available and would highly recommend her for your furry pet as well.

About: I’ve loved and cared for dogs of all breeds and sizes for years. As a former Doberman owner, I’m comfortable with large, high energy, or powerful breeds that need strong, confident handling. (But I love all doggos) Will do long walks around the neighborhood or visits! I make sure every pup gets exercise, affection, and attention. I’m super reliable, quick to respond, and dedicated to following your exact feeding, routine, and care instructions to keep your pet happy and safe! Pet care fits naturally into my day-to-day routine! Whether I’m boarding your pup at my place or house sitting and walking at yours, they’ll get tons of focused attention, regular potty breaks, and plenty of activity. Plus, I live within walking distance of Kanine Social for fun outings (with your permission, of course!). I’m always happy to adjust my schedule to match your dog’s specific energy level and daily habits. Your pet’s safety and comfort come first, period. Having owned a Doberman, I’m totally comfortable and experienced handling large, strong, high-energy breeds. I don’t have a fenced yard, so I rely on frequent/long walks . I strictly follow feeding and care instructions, send daily photo updates so you’re never wondering how they’re doing, and treat your home and pets with complete respect.

About: My day job is as a wildlife biologist, and I have worked with everything from Japanese giant salamanders to gopher tortoises. I have watched pets for neighbors and friends for years and love dogs especially! I am free in evenings (5pm or later) and weekends pretty consistently (I work full time as a wildlife biologist during the day). Happy with long or short walks, even on hot days. I don't have any pets at home right now, but I am comfortable with a wide variety of animals. I am skilled at reading animal body language and always strive to make pets feel safe.

I cannot recommend Patrick D. enough! From the moment we first connected, he was professional, kind, and clearly passionate about animals. He took care of my dogs as if they were his own — sending regular updates, photos, and even little notes about how the day went, which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. Kevin and William absolutely adored HIM (which says a lot, because they're usually a bit shy with new people). When I came home, everything was spotless, my pets were happy, and their routine had been perfectly followed. Patrick went above and beyond in every way. If you're looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and genuinely caring, look no further. I will absolutely be booking with him again!

About: I’ve grown up with dogs most of my life and have lived with multiple cat owners as well. I feel like pets like my calm and loving demeanor 😊 I enjoy the flexibility this profession allows and I love the outdoors. If your pet wants a long walk in the sun or just needs to stretch its legs in the backyard I’m down for either! 😁 I feel as though my laid back demeanor is great for working with animals and even the pickiest cats have fallen for me. I’m great at reading the body language of animals and know when they want a belly rub or when they want me to sit six feet away.

Erika is calm, trustworthy, and knowledgeable. She has been coming to my house to do midday drop ins for my two sighthounds. They are usually reserved around new people, but Erika won them over right away. Highly recommend!

About: Hello! Im a local native to Jacksonville, and i genuinely love dogs and cats. Having two of my own, I really know how to take care of them and go above and beyond to ensure my furbabies are happy, therefore, I’d do the same for you! I have an Australian shepherd and husky, and take pride in engaging in their crazy ambitions, having trained them since they were babies. I’m working on my own business and need some extra cash flow. Therefore, I’m very available during the day, I usually walk my dogs in the morning and workout. So anytime after 12pm works really well for dog walking. As for dog sitting/home sitting, my job is remote so I can do work from home! Typically, my home is fenced, therefore, I usually just let my dogs roam free in the back while I watch. We play fetch and doing training back there. But for clients with no fence, I have no problem walking dogs to go potty. As far as inside, I pay close attention to things. If the room is too quiet or gets to rough, I’m always on top of things. And if my dogs are acting weird, I ensure I’m on top of that before the problem gets worse.

There’s a reason Evan has a perfect rating. He was able to take care of my cat with only 12 hours notice. It was an unexpected/emergency trip so there was no advanced planning but Evan rolled with it, found everything - food, litter, the house key (!) It really was last minute. Evan even loaded and ran the dishwasher for us so that we didn’t walk into a disaster Highly recommend Evan!

Jenna was fantastic! Her love for animals shines through. She sent lots of updates and was super-flexible with our requests to accommodate our cats’ wacky feeding schedule — she even paid them an extra visit at the last minute when our return plane was delayed. We definitely will request her again to look after our guys!
