About: I've been taking care of pets for family and friends since I was 16. I truly love spending time with animals and giving them the love and attention they deserve. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or just keeping them company, I always treat every pet like they’re my own. I'm home in Jacksonville for the summer and taking online classes, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to give your pets the love and attention they need. I always try to make pets feel safe and comfortable, whether I’m in my home or yours. I stick to their routine, give them lots of love and attention, and make sure they’re well cared for. I’m also super respectful of your space and treat your pet like part of the family.

About: I have taken care of my brother’s dog and his fiancé’s dog when he’s out of town. One is a lab mix and the other is a Doberman. We’ve also gone on walks and played frisbee. I have walked some of our neighbor’s dog. I have babysat another dog and cat at other people’s house. I have recently taken care of 9 month to 10 month puppies. I also have been taken dogs to BrewHound if the owners want the dog to get out for a while. I am free anytime right now. I am looking to get a job at the beginning of February and I need to fill up my time until then. I can still continue after I get job and figure how to work around it. I can walk your dog and play with it or just chill out in the house with it while reading a book or working on my laptop. I can spend a few hours here and there to make sure the dog has some company throughout the day. I also have been taken dogs to BrewHound if the owners want the dog to get out for a while.

About: My interactions with pets came in the form of an 8 week old puppy named Lola gifted to me for my birthday. Lola is now turning 10 years old and having her has gifted me the experiences of interacting with other pets. I have had the pleasure of dog sitting, play dates, and dog walking pets of various sizes and ages for the last 10years! I truly love the bond that dogs hold with humans and as someone that’s looking to turn a passion into a career, I’m so excited to have the time to take this opportunity to start. I currently work a part time job with a flexible schedule which is the perfect scenario for pet walking and pet sitting! I live in a home with a fenced in back yard. I have a lot of experience with bringing dogs to public dog parks as I know the signs for high stress situation. I have a very large fenced in backyard with a large oak tree that provides shade and places for dogs to sit and relax. Plenty of room for fun games! I I have the ability to keep my pets separate from others if that’s needed! I also live across the street from a nature preserve that’s walking distance fora change of scenery and more exercise.

They told me how much they loved your walks together and Okee even said she thought about bringing the ball back to you a few times. Lol. Knowing they were in great hands helped us be able to enjoy our time away, with family. Thank you again!!!!”

Meggie played with Emmie, fed her, snuggled her, cleaned up numerous messes, spent hours keeping Emmie company, and even got up during the night to take her to potty.
