House Sitting in Eastport, Jacksonville, FL

About: I’ve spent over 15 years in the pet care world, gaining hands-on experience in a variety of settings — from veterinary clinics and kennels to long-term boarding facilities, doggy daycares, and canine training, including work with both gentle companions and those with behavioral challenges. At home, I share my life with two Australian Shepherds and three other wonderful dogs. To me, pets are far more than just animals — they’re family. The bond we share with them is one of life’s greatest rewards, and I believe their physical and mental well-being is the foundation for that special connection. Every tail wag, happy bark, and content sigh reminds me why I do what I do. Pet care is my passion, which means I’m available to meet your pet’s needs any time — day or night, seven days a week. My typical schedule allows limited weekday care, staring at 5pm. I am available anytime on weekends. I have a large, secure fenced yard and two friendly dogs who love to play and help keep visiting pups engaged and happy. If your dog prefers a quieter pace, I’m always ready for one-on-one time — whether that’s playing, going for walks, running, hiking, exploring, or simply snuggling. No pet should ever feel unwanted, and I treat every animal in my care as if they were my own.

“Jeweliana and Riley did a wonderful job taking care of my two dogs, Ruby and Sydney. Jeweliana communicate with me daily through text and pictures. We were very happy with their care that they provided for the dogs.”

“Dillon is awesome! He was our house/dog sitter for six days while we were out of state. it was so nice to come home to a happy dog and a clean house! Dillon went above and beyond caring for our home and our Zeva. if I could give him 10 stars I would! I highly recommend Dillon to anyone looking for a reliable, caring pet sitter!”

“I was a first timer on Rover and with Brianna. So big choice(s) for me! She had a 5 star review and more than half of her clients have rebooked. This is why I felt comfortable selecting her. We did a pre-meet and it went well. While I was gone, Bri was great to send daily pics and videos! HUGE! Thank you for loving on my awesome dog son Daniel and allowing me to exhale regarding his care while I was gone.”

About: Growing up in a home full of animals and with my parents being veterinarians, I truly believe that our pets are not just pets, they are family. You can rest assured that with my experience caring for my own family's pets, shadowing at my parents' vet practice on my pre-vet path, and with my master's degree in animal behavior your four-legged family will be safe and comfortable under my care. I am currently in between work after finishing graduate school, so my schedule is very flexible to give your pets the care and attention they need. It’s easy to worry about our pets when they’re out of our sight. Under my care, you can rest easy knowing that with my knowledge of animal health and behavior from my education and shadowing experience at a veterinary practice, I keep a keen eye out for any health or behavioral issues which may be affecting the comfort of your pets.

About: Pet sitting has always been a joyous hobby of mine, and I would love to take care of your animal. I have had pets my whole life, and have pet sat for many years. I’m primarily a student, and also work as a research assistant with one of my professors. My schedule is relatively open this semester though, and I should be able to adequately take care of any of your pets with ample attention given. I have a fenced in backyard, and a cat tower for any pets that come and stay in our home. I’m also happy to take any animals on walks.

“Roni was absolutely amazing. I would highly recommend her. I have 2 large dobermans and she disciplined, cared and loved on them with ease. She is brilliant! She was constantly in contact with me sending images etc and she is a wonderful person.”

About: Hi there! I have over 3 years of hands-on experience working at Pet Paradise and Dogtopia, where I cared for dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and needs. On top of that, I’ve been a lifelong pet owner—dogs, cats, hamsters, and even snakes! I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I treat every animal like they’re my own. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or snuggles, your pets will always feel safe and loved with me. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine! I start and end my days with my own two cats, Anais and Cleo, so I’m already in the rhythm of feedings, walks, and playtime. I’m available mornings, evenings, and weekends for drop-ins, walks, or sitting, and I can adjust my schedule to fit your pet’s needs. When caring for pets in your home, I respect both your space and your pet’s routine. I’ll follow your instructions closely, from feeding schedules to preferred walking routes. I take extra care with things like locking up, cleaning up after pets, and making sure they’re comfortable in their own environment. You can trust that your home and pets will be safe and well cared for.

About: Hi, you are looking at a lifelong animal love who just quit her corporate job to love on dogs full time! 🥰 About me: active, healthy, woman in my mid 40s with lots of love to give. My mom raised maltese pups since I was a little kid. I raised my own mini dachshund since I was 18 who lived a full life until she crossed the rainbow bridge at 16.5 years old. I also had many cats and rescued a pup that wandered into our front yard. Dogs are MY life, so I happily welcomed Jaxie (mini dachshund) into my family in Feb '20. He is such a sweet boy - loves belly rubs, hunting lizards, and playing with all his furfriends. If you have a friendly pup who enjoys the company of another friendly pup, come on over! Your pup will have so much fun. Jaxie plays very nice (very submissive, is always on his back, even with chihuahuas) and loves to get chased and be chased. Jaxie is not food aggressive. And, he's not toy aggressive either - he loves sharing his many toys with his furfriends! Or, if your pup doesn’t want to play, Jaxie is great matching his energy level to other pups. We’ve had many older pups here where Jaxie leaves them alone out of respect. On the other hand, he’s also amazed pet parents by getting their older pups to play! My 24/7 job is to take care of your furbaby I'll be home with your furbaby all day, watching over them, snuggling them, and making sure they stay safe and enriched with playtime. We have lots of toys here! House is organized and clean at all times. My fiance is a firefighter who works 1 day on, 2 days off. As such, on his off days, he's home all day. We live at the end of a cul-de-sac in a very small and quiet neighborhood. Backyard is fully fenced and backs up to a creek. No neighbors in the back. Whenever your pup is in the backyard, I am always out there. Your pup is never unattended outside. Your fur baby can sleep and hangout where ever they want (couch, bed, dog beds). If your dog loves walks, we'll go on walks. If your dog has a sweet tooth, we'll get pup cups! Or, if your fur baby just wants to chill, we can do that too! I sync my energy level to your dog's energy level. I do not take any other dogs during the same time period as I am caring for your pup. I can do drop in visits or walks if you live fairly close to me. Finally, I am a good communicator (can't you tell by this dissertation; ha!) and will send updates and pics at least 3 times a day. If you want less, just let me know. :) My daily routine revolves around my own dog, so rest assured your dog will be treated like family, and will be given the same amount of care and attention; dogs are #1 in my household! When I take care of your furbaby, ensuring your furbaby is happy, fulfilled, and loved is my number #1 goal! We can do meet and greets via Zoom or at my house. Your call!

“Sandra and her daughter were great with my dog! They kept me updated and made sure he got lots of love and playtime. I felt at ease the entire time. Would definitely book again!”

“I’ll start by saying that before choosing Megan we looked at quite a few of the sitters on this site. We left on 22 December and return on January 3. That being said it was a lot to ask of any sitter to babysitter over the holidays on such short notice. When I met Megan, I felt so comfortable with her. She stayed for a meet and greet for quite a while to get used to our animals. She accepted our timeslots, even though it was over the holidays. We felt like she was more than worth what she was charging as she was losing time with her family over the holidays and offering to stay with our pets so that we could go out of state to spend time with ours. It was very important to us that we had someone we could trust she was staying in our home to sit for our animals, I can say that I am so happy that we chose her. She was amazing. Gave us daily updates videos and made us comfortable. We were able to enjoy our visit without having to worry about our animals. They are not enough stars to rate for the job that she did and the peace of mind that we had. I would highly recommend her and would definitely use her again. Megan thank you so much. We appreciate everything that you did for us.🦮🐈‍⬛ Buddy and Zoie miss you ❤️❤️❤️”
