Doggy Day Care in Herlong, Jacksonville, FL

“Therisa has been keeping my Coco in doggy day care for 6 months now. I trust her like family! Coco can’t wait for her to pick her up. It’s been wonderful knowing she has someone caring for her while I’m at work. Thank you TJ!”

“They are amazing! Very flexible with the schedule and they take very good care of my puppy! Even giving a bath here and there and working with him on learning how to behave! She is my babysitter”

“My fur baby is very clingy and I was initially hesitant after a negative experience at a local boarding business. However, she adapted well to Chyna and I plan to use her services in the future.”

“Java started to trust Kenneth after 2 daycare visits, which is very rare. It means Kenneth did a lot of work with him. I feel very confident leaving Java with him, and I can focus on my work . Thank you 🙏🏽”

“Carole is overall a wonderful person. Loved interacting with her and she was also great with our puppy. My puppy is not an angel all the time since she is still learning, but Carole had great patience and understanding with her. Played with her plenty of time that she came home exhausted and slept past her dinner time. I highly recommend her if you had any doubts and your cherished baby will be in great hands.”

“We are so unbelievably grateful for Stephanie. This morning we were dropping our dog off at another persons house for a rover stay over, and it was not a good fit. We had limited time to find a new sitter as we had a wedding to get to. Stephanie responded immediately and took excellent care of our sweet pup. Truly so grateful for her ❤️ thank you for making us feel so comfortable.”

About: Big Star Pet Care was started after my beloved senior dog of 10 years passed. I referred to him as my “Big Star” and through caring for others’ pets shortly after his loss, I found comfort and companionship. That’s why I give everyone my Big Star Promise— to treat your animals like they are their own Big Star. After all, they are your Biggest Star and deserve to be treated as such even when you are away! I've taken care of many animals from: cats and dogs to ferrets, rats, snakes, geckos, birds, hamsters and most recently- toads. This makes my experience in animal care varied and diverse. I have experience with all sizes of pet and breed, as well as many different temperaments. I strive to follow instructions left by the pet owner and always send plenty of photos and updates. I am comfortable giving baths and can administer oral medication if needed. Thank you for considering Big Star Pet Services, I look forward to meeting you and your best friend(s). My pet services and one 3hr/day M-F babysitting job are my only sources of employment, so I have more than enough time to provide love, exercise and enrichment. I can make multiple drop in's per day at your home, stay at your home to care for and keep your animals company, or accommodate up to two pets from one family at my home. I do not accept more than one family at my home at one time in order to ensure your pet(s) receive the utmost care and attention while you are away. I live in a large townhouse with a fully fenced backyard, my wife who assists here and there with pet care (and is more than happy to act as a second set of eyes to keep watch and hands to pet), 3 cats who keep mostly to themselves but may befriend gentler dogs and a new puppy. I can create separated spaces if necessary, while still ensuring your furry friend gets the utmost care and attention.

“Kristall was so kind to take our 10 week old pup after a very last minute request. Our pup joined us only 4 days before we realized we needed a sitter for about 5 hours. And I forgot to make a request until the night before. Kristall was friendly, sweet, and immediately good with our pup. She obviously loves dogs. When we picked up our pup, he was happy and looking good. He enjoyed the yard and the love. Kristall was flexible with our a bit uncertain return time, too. I recommend Kristall highly and plan to request her again.”

About: I have 2 guinea pigs in open cages but they are in a room where I can close the door if needed. I have many years experience sitting dogs for many family and friends! I had dogs most of my life. My most recent dog passed away in 2024. No other dogs in the household I work from home Monday through Friday! I do have church on Sundays. Aside from that. I am almost always home unless I am on vacation, of course haha I have a large fenced in back yard. Plenty of room for your loved ones to run, play and potty! I have two guinea pigs in an open cage setting, however they are in a room where I can close a door if needed. If your dog is not potty trained I do ask for you to bring a kennel I can put them in for short times when running to the store.

About: My husband and I are empty nesters with 4 Husky fur babies. After our kids grew up and moved out, we decided to become parents to these 4 great Husky fur babies. We will open our homes and our hearts to your fur babies when you need us. My husband is retired and home all day to care for them. His favorite hobby is making home-made dog treats! I still work full time, but I am home spoiling our babies when I'm not at work. Our dogs get along very well with other dogs. We believe in lots of treats, loves, play, and petting! We will give your dog all the love you would in your absence! I currently work full time and my husband is retired and at home all day caring for our dogs. Because of our schedule, we have a lot of time to devote to your fur baby or babies! We have a fenced back yard where my dogs safely run and play. We also have a safe neighborhood with sidewalks that we can walk the dogs. Our dogs have a room where they stay if we leave the house. Their room has couches, a television, and windows for them to watch outside. If you prefer, we can also crate your dog at appropriate times as well.

“We needed someone to care for our puppy while we came to town for a funeral and Beverly provided great care! She was very communicative and reassuring as this was our first time using this service!”

“I needed someone to keep our very new puppy, without any experience with puppies I didn't want to put her in the little cage. So I searched on Rover and found this very wonderful family. They were very helpful, kind and accommodating especially since she hadn't completed her shots. If you are looking for someone to treat your furry family member like their own family you have found your sitter. They helped tremendously..... Thanks”

“Brenda is a sweet lady who really adores the dogs she cares for. I highly recommend!”

“Our two puppies came home happy after their day at Elaine's. You can tell she loves the dogs and takes good care of them.”

Robert R.

“Such a lucky find for me. Kerri loves dogs. My dog can be nervous when around strangers, not with Kerri. She was well taken care of, with pictures being sent often! In the past, if I had to use a kennel it took a couple of days for her to get back to normal. Not this time, because Kerri earned her trust. So happy to find this sweet family!”

About: Hello I’m Jordan, I’m a loving pet owner, have never been without a doggo in my life for very long, and have experience with small and large dogs, puppies, walking, feeding and training. I am a frequent foster care provider for the humane society, so have spent plenty of time caring for puppies, kittens and dogs. I work a hybrid work schedule so am often available for pop in visits and walking/feeding needs. I have worked for a similar service doing home and pet visits, so am able to cater to individual needs and requests. Currently at home, I have a friendly Cat Betty, who doesn’t mind hanging with dogs, but she can be separated if needed. My older dachshund Charlie Brown recently passed away so is no longer in the home. I do have a dachshund Nina the Wiena who is energetic and playful. I am always excited to meet new furry friends and can’t wait to meet yours! I am currently working a hybrid schedule and have flexible hours. I work from home most days, but typically go into the office Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday. I have a 3 bedroom house and a fully enclosed fenced yard. I currently have one cat and one dog, who are very friendly but can be separated if needed.

“They were so nice! My puppy had a great time and with my schedule they were so understanding! Will def be using them again if they will have my pup!! ❤️”
