Pet Sitting & Drop Ins In Jacksonville Heights South

About: Hi! My name is Jasmine, and I’ve been around animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up, I was surrounded by both large dogs and cats, which helped me become comfortable caring for pets of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. Over the years, I’ve also cared for the pets of family, friends, and neighbors, providing feeding, walks, playtime, companionship, and plenty of love and attention. I am a responsible, dependable, and compassionate caregiver who genuinely enjoys spending time with animals. My experience growing up with big dogs taught me how to confidently handle larger breeds, while living with and caring for cats has helped me understand the importance of patience and respecting each pet’s unique personality. I know that trusting someone with your pet is a big decision, and I treat every animal as if they were my own. My goal is to provide a safe, comfortable, and stress-free experience for both you and your pet, along with regular updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! 🐾💕 As I work toward my goal of becoming a nail technician, I have the flexibility to provide attentive and dependable pet care. I’ve always loved animals, and pet sitting is a rewarding way for me to spend my time while building my career. I make it a priority to keep pets on their regular routines and give them plenty of attention, companionship, and care. I provide loving, reliable care tailored to each pet’s routine and personality. Whether I’m caring for your pet in your home, hosting them overnight in my home, stopping by for drop-in visits, or taking them on walks, my goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for. For boarding and overnight stays in my home, pets will have a clean, pet-friendly environment with plenty of attention, playtime, and exercise. My apartment community includes a dog park and a dog washing station, which are great amenities for active dogs. I also have two cats, so any pets staying with me should be comfortable around cats. For drop-in visits and house sitting, I follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding, walks, potty breaks, litter box cleaning, playtime, medications (if needed), and lots of affection. I understand how important consistency is for pets, especially when their owners are away. I also provide regular photo and message updates so you can relax knowing your pet is happy, safe, and receiving the care they deserve. I treat every pet like family and strive to make their time with me a positive experience.

About: Hi! I’m Alisha — a reliable, detail-oriented animal lover who treats every pet like they’re my own. I understand how important it is to feel completely comfortable leaving your pet in someone else’s care, and that’s something I take seriously. Whether it’s drop-in visits, feeding routines, playtime, or just giving them some extra love and attention, I make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. I’m very attentive to details and will always follow your pet’s routine exactly as requested — from specific feeding instructions to medications or preferred walking routes. I’m also happy to provide updates and photos so you can have peace of mind while you’re gone. I am typically available after 3pm on weekdays and open on weekends! Feel free to reach out and I can let you know my availability! I have a fully fenced back yard, and a pretty spacious home. I have two dogs, to ensure your peace of mind if I host your loved one in my home, my two fur babies will be on the second floor completely separate.

“I'm very pleased that Jamalia attends to my cat's needs, like providing Ruby with fresh water and cleaning her litter. She also spends time playing with Ruby before leaving my house. Ruby appears relaxed around her and seems to like her.”

About: I have always had pets growing up, including birds, tortoises, cats, and dogs, so I am familiar with a wide variety of needs and temperaments. I am responsible, punctual, and committed to following any special instructions your pet may have, whether related to diet, exercise, medication, or daily routines. My goal is to make your pet feel loved, safe, and happy while in my care. :) I look forward to providing top-notch care for your fur, feathered, or scaled baby! Monday – Friday: My wife works full time from home and is able to provide attentive care for your fur baby throughout the day. In the evenings, both of us will be home to give your fur baby all the love, attention, and care they need. Saturday – Sunday: We do not work on weekends, so your fur baby will enjoy fun filled days with plenty of attention and activity. From walks around our neighborhood near the park to playtime in our fenced backyard, we make weekends exciting and engaging for every pup in our care. We have a fenced backyard and one (1) miniature Golden Retriever who can either play with your fur baby or be separated if requested. We are very cautious and will always ensure your fur baby is safe and well cared for. We are the type of family that loves providing daily updates and photos because we understand that leaving your fur baby in someone else’s care can feel intimidating. Our goal is to help you feel comfortable and reassured while you’re away.

“Sarah is an absolute gem! We had our regular cat sitter cancel at short notice (less than a week before our holiday!). I frantically went on Rover and found Sarah. I chose her because she had glowing reviews, responded promptly and was very warm during our meet and greet. This was our first holiday away from our cat and for over 2 weeks so I was an anxious mess! During our time away Sarah communicated regularly with us and sent photos everyday and videos too. She really helped to calm my nerves. Our cat is anxious and skittish by nature. She is the sweetest cuddliest bug with us but she wasn’t nice to Sarah at all! There was a lot of hissing, growling and swatting. But Sarah was patient, gentle and persistent with our grumpy gremlin. She had great strategies she employed to keep our cat entertained, fed and content. We returned home to an excited, well fed and happy cat. It’s a testament to Sarah’s skills, temperament and love of animals that our cat was totally unfazed being left alone at home for the first time. I will not hesitate to use Sarah again and recommend her to others. She will be a regular sitter for us now & hopefully our cat will be better behaved in future!”

About: My family has always had at least 2 dogs at any given time so I feel like I have extensive experience. I currently have 2 dogs of my own who I walk regularly, give medication to when needed and snuggle with (as much as they let me). I have handled dogs with a wide variety of temperaments and sizes so I do not discriminate. I currently have a very flexible schedule so I am available for drop in visits and I can do extended in home visits up to 4 hours daily. I'm a reliable person who loves dogs and understands that everyone has to go to work. I'm unable to bring any additional animals into my home but I am available to come to you. Since I have animals of my own at home I am also unable to do any overnight stays.

“Mary and Gabrielle were fantastic and very communicative the whole time. It was great getting updates with pictures included, and they were awesome about any questions I had or they had. Would definitely book again when needed!”

“Quick to respond, super accommodating, very sweet. I messaged her the day before I needed a sitter and she made time to come for a meet and great with Bennie that night. She kept me updated and sent tons of cute photos of him.”

“Stephanie was so good with Nina. She definitely made me feel comfortable leaving her in her hands! She was also very accommodating and understanding.”

About: Animals truly are a phenomenal blessing and I strive to ensure quality care, safety, and wellness with every animal I encounter! Pet care as if you were there! Family and friends have entrusted me with their pet care since I was 16, during college, and even the military. I have experience with puppies, middle age, and senior dogs as well as small, medium, and large dogs. I’ve house trained as well as taught tricks to four dogs so far. In addition to that, I have experience with healthy dogs as wells as those with medical needs (I.e. drawing and administering the correct prescribed amount of insulin for diabetic dogs). I aim to take care of any and all pet needs whether it’s taking them on a run/walk, going to the beach, preparing meals, or just providing company. All pets are treated with love and respect just like I would my own sweet boy, Bentley. Thank you for your time and have a great day! I currently work full time, however, I’m remote and able to be flexible to provide the best care for your fur family. I’m free in the mornings, midday, and the evening after 5:30pm for feedings, walks/runs, providing company, or taking them out to do an activity. Your pet’s safety is my utmost concern! There are multiple rooms in the event your pet likes to wander or prefer a little space to themselves. If they love making friends, then I have a sweet Cockapoo named Bentley who would love to keep them company and share his treats. If your pet requires to be caged at any point during the day, then that can be accommodated. Lastly, I have video surveillance to keep an extra eye on the animals in addition to me being vigilant and attentive.

“She’s very reliable and was great with my dogs! She made sure to send me pictures and kept me updated when she went over and let them. She helped me very last minute!! I will definitely rebook with Alexandra!”

“Kiana was a life saver! I was out of town and my internet shut off so my cameras weren’t working for me to check on my cat. She was so sweet and made sure she was safe and sent lots of pictures. I would definitely use Kiana again in a heart beat. Thanks so much! 🐾”

About: I’ve always had a love of life since I was young. Whether insects, animals, or humans, I care for all the same. I’ve watched , helped raise, and babysat for dogs since I was 17. I’ve had many different experiences with animals from small dogs like Yorkshire Terriers to large dogs like English Mastiffs. I’m hoping to be able to connect with people and their animals for lasting relationships. It work full time as a teacher’s assistant and have summer vacation off. While the school year is ongoing, I’m able to care for pets after 3:30pm and during school vacations and weekends I’m more flexible and available. Sundays are more restricted as well because of my church schedule, however, I am still available afterwards. As of right now I am not able to care for any animals in my home. That being said, I do my best to keep with a consistent lifestyle for your pets. If there are rooms or furniture that you don’t want them to have access to then it will be so. Whether you want them to walk around the neighborhood, run around the yard, or be brought to a park we can make it happen. Personally, I enjoy being able to take animals into the world to get treats or to interact with others.

“Nautica was wonderful!! She is very attentive, knowledgeable, and kind. Our girl loved her, and we will definitely be scheduling with her again in the future!”

“Lindsey and Jose were amazing! I can't thank them enough for the way they took extra special care of our dogs. Their patience, communication, attention to detail, and willingness to go above and beyond were impressive. We are so grateful and appreciative of them. Being away from my dogs caused me anxiety; Lindsey absolutely took the time to make me feel at ease and provided a ton of updates and pictures. We are excited to have people we can trust with our dogs moving forward and look forward to booking them again....thanks Lindsey and Jose!!!”
