Dog Sitting Jacksonville

About: I’ve never known life without a furry friend by my side! Growing up, my family always had pets of our own and regularly fostered dogs and cats from our local animal shelter. Through fostering, I’ve had the opportunity to care for animals of all ages, personalities, and backgrounds, from energetic, playful pups to shy animals who need a little extra patience and love. I’ve always been a huge animal lover, and caring for pets has been a natural part of my life for as long as I can remember. I recently graduated from college and moved to a new city to begin my career. For the first time, I don’t have a pet of my own, and I miss having animals around! Pet sitting is the perfect opportunity for me to share that love while giving pet parents peace of mind. I’m responsible, dependable, attentive, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or just having someone nearby to keep them company, I’m happy to accommodate their individual needs and routines. I understand that pets are family, and I promise to treat yours with the same love, patience, and attention I would give my own. You can also count on plenty of pictures and updates while you’re away! I currently work in sales, which gives me a flexible schedule and the ability to accommodate different pet care needs throughout the week. I love staying active and spending time outdoors, so incorporating walks, playtime, and quality time with your furry friends into my routine is something I genuinely look forward to! I’m happy to coordinate with pet parents to find a schedule that works best for everyone. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pets and home in someone else’s care, and I don’t take that responsibility lightly! I’m very respectful of others’ homes and always make sure to leave spaces just as clean as I found them. I carefully follow each pet’s individual routine, feeding instructions, and any special care needs. Having grown up fostering animals, I understand that every pet has a different personality and comfort level. My priority is making sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m also happy to send pictures and updates so you can have peace of mind!

About: I have about three years of hands-on pet care experience, caring for dogs of different sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. I’m patient, attentive, and very mindful of routines, feeding schedules, and safety. I understand how important trust is when leaving your pet with someone new, and I treat every animal with the same care and respect I’d want for my own. I also have a son so I know how important it is to be able to trust someone to care of your loved one(s). I have a flexible schedule that allows me to be present, attentive, and consistent with pet care. I plan my days carefully around my work schedule and my son’s daycare so pets receive proper attention, walks, playtime, and calm companionship without being rushed. Safety and trust are my top priorities. I follow all care instructions closely, keep pets in clean and calm environments, and make sure they’re always supervised appropriately. I respect each pet’s routine and temperament and communicate clearly with owners to ensure peace of mind while they’re away.

About: I have years of hands-on experience caring for both cats and dogs, including multi-pet households where cats and dogs lived together successfully. I understand the different needs of each species and follow all feeding, medication, and care instructions precisely. My focus is always on creating a calm, consistent environment so every pet feels safe and owners can leave with complete peace of mind. I work a remote Medicare sales job that gives me flexible hours and the ability to set my own schedule. This means I can easily plan pet care visits, drop ins, or overnight stays around my work without conflicts. I treat every pet with complete focus and responsibility. I follow all feeding and medication instructions exactly, keep litter areas clean and odor free, monitor for any changes in behavior or health, and maintain a calm, consistent routine that prioritizes the animal’s safety and comfort at all times.

About: Dogs are also family wouldn't you say they deserve the best care from the best dog caregiver!? With me your fur baby will receive attention through play time, be given time to run and play and have the love and care to continue to thrive. The Services I do provide are feeding, walks to keep your fur baby happy and healthy, fun time to keep them stimulated, to continue to build on their social skills and so they can routinely be working on their bonding with family, new faces and other dogs. Dogs are constantly growing and learning so the proper sitter is needed. My schedule is flexible, so it’s allows me to be available for any type of service that may come up. Around Special events and holidays I have more time to play with your fur baby and be more active. Making sure your dog is secure in my home or yours is my first priority. Because dogs are just like babies they can get into things so double checking doors and Gates is a must.

About: I might be just as excited to see your dog as they are to see me! I've spent years caring for my own dog, helping with foster dogs, and pet sitting for both dogs and cats. I love long walks, playtime, and cuddles, and my gentle, patient energy helps pets feel comfortable and cared for while their owners are away. Caring for animals fits naturally into my routine because it's something I genuinely enjoy. I work part-time and attend college, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to be available most days with notice. Whether it's walks, playtime, feeding, or overnight care, I love making pets feel comfortable and cared for. In my home, pets have access to a secure fenced yard, a doggie door, and plenty of natural light through large windows. I also have a great walking area right behind my house for safe, enjoyable walks. When caring for pets in a client's home, I follow their regular routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and lots of affection to help pets feel comfortable and secure.

“Sandra was a huge help for us when we went out of town. Our dogs were well taken care of and we super appreciate it!!”

About: Since I was a kid, I’ve been growing on a pet friendly environment, I remember having our first dog at home when I was four, was a Cocker Spaniel, then, as a Mexican in our household we had a couple of chihuahuas and since around five years, whenever we got the opportunity to bring dogs home and adopt them, we do it, if not, we serve as bridges to place them with a family that will loved them, as much as we would if we had a huge land to bring them. Currently I have my 9-5, I would definitely be around after work or during weekends to take care of the furriest one at home. Currently I live in an apartment and not sure if I can bring dogs here, if possible, I would love to have them around but if not, happy to be where I’m needed.

“Nancy did an excellent job dropping in to take care of my cat, Arthur, for six days while I was out of town. She was also able to accommodate me on extremely short notice, as a sitter that I had lined up had to cancel just a few days before the trip due to a family emergency. Nancy stopped by at the right time every day to give Arthur consistent care, which is important for a cat that can be fussy and relies on routine. She told me that she enjoyed brushing cats' coats when I first met her, and when I got back, Arthur's coat was beautiful! Arthur clearly enjoyed Nancy's visits, and I'll be sure to call on her again the next time I take a trip.”

About: I have almost 2 years of professional experience working with dogs and cats. I am experienced with pets from around 3 months up to 15+ years. I am experienced in feeding, as well as administering both oral and topical medications to both cats and dogs. I have experience with shy, timid and anxious pets, and I have dealt with aggressive/reactive behavior. I have experience working with multiple pets at one time, walking up to 3 dogs at one time, and monitoring up to 25 dogs in a play setting at one time. I have administered first aid to dogs with clipped nails, scratched paws, minor bites from other animals, and other various small injuries, as well as sickness. I currently have 2 cats of my own, and I’ve had family pets ever since I was a little kid. At one point there were 7 cats and 4 dogs being taken care of at my home, and I was relied on to help feed, bathe, and walk them. I’m an animal lover. Sometimes I feel I connect better to animals than people themselves! I can bring the energy, but I’m also responsible, patient, and can remain calm when dealing with animals that are in distress or are very hyper. I will always follow how the owner of the pet wants that pet to be treated, trained or disciplined. Currently a full time student looking to fill my free time with taking care of your fur babies. My schedule does fill up quick with school activities, hobbies, traveling, etc, but I will keep my schedule up to date as much as possible 🩷 I currently do not have the proper equipment or means to board any animals at the moment. However, I will follow anything the owner needs me to do when it comes to care of their animal in their own home, as well as offering all of the love I can! I will ensure the animals are fed, walked/ let out to play, and bathed if needed.

“Tania did an amazing job watching over our pets the 4 days we were away. She had great attention to detail, checked in regularly with updates, and followed the instructions perfectly. Aspen seemed to love Tania! We would definitely recommend her to anyone and we plan on having her watch our pets again in the future!”

“I loved Kiah! Very professional. She sent me a detailed update of how my cat was doing during each of her visits with many pictures to go along with it while I was on my out-of-state vacation. I asked her to bring in mail while I was gone and she gladly did that for me as well! My Nola seemed so happy when she was around and I would definitely rebook with her when I’m not in town again.”
