Love, care and PLAYTIME

Pet care experience

I work from home part-time and can help you with whatever needs arise! We have a 40 pound lab/border collie mix who loves to play and cuddle. I’m originally from TX but am working here in Jax as a freelancer. We’ve had our adopted pup for 3 years, and we’ve fallen in love with the pet community and our favorite activities include pet-sitting for friends, neighborhood walks, and meeting new families at the local dog park! We’re here to learn from you and your years of experience with your pup while giving your pet a loving and exciting day. We know they’ll be sad to leave us but will have a very wiggly butt when they get dropped back off with you!

We recently entrusted Em to watch over our beloved dog, Ranger, for four nights, and the experience was absolutely fantastic. Our sitter, Em and her partner, was truly wonderful and took exceptional care of Ranger, leaving us with no doubt that he had an excellent time. Em displayed a high level of attentiveness to Ranger's needs, and her systematic approach to dog sitting was impressive. When we first arrived, she insisted on meeting both us and the dogs outside. After this introduction, she would take Ranger for a walk around the neighborhood, allowing him to acclimate to her and alleviate any anxious or nervous energy he had. This approach was a fantastic way to ensure that Ranger was comfortable before meeting other dogs. Ems large backyard was a paradise for our furry friend. It provided ample space for the dogs to play and run around. Ranger truly felt at home, and Em even let him join them on the couch for cuddles and allowed him to lay on her feet while she worked – something Ranger absolutely loves. One of the highlights of Ranger's stay was the berry peanut butter treats that Em prepared. She made sure to ask for our consent before offering them to Ranger, and he couldn't get enough of them. Em went above and beyond in keeping us updated with a daily photo and, if ever needed, was very accommodating if we wanted more frequent updates. She made us feel welcome and cared for, ensuring that we were comfortable throughout Ranger's stay. When Ranger returned home, he was thoroughly exhausted but had the most significant grin on his face in every photo Em shared. It was heartwarming to know that he had such a great time while we were away, and it felt like he had his own little vacation. We are definitely planning to use Em and her partner's services again to watch over Ranger. They are excellent dog sitters, and we have full confidence in leaving Ranger in their care. It was a delightful experience, and we highly recommend their services to any pet owners seeking the best care for their furry family members.

We ALWAYS start a non-house sitting service with a walk around the neighborhood. This lets me bond with your pup while also letting them sniff out their vacation home! Name game is so much fun to do with dogs! I love long walks as well as tug of war and long runs with the ball launcher, and of course lots of love and attention.
