House Sitting in Normandy Estate, Jacksonville, FL

“I can't say enough about how AMAZING Robyn and Steven are!! All around!!! I am a VERY overprotective cat mom and my baby jc had never been at home by himself for more than 12 hours in the past 4 years and NEVER overnight lol. I had to unexpectedly go out of state for reasons concerning family, so I contacted them last minute and they were here right away. jc is also very shy because it is only me and him and we very rarely have company, so I wasn't sure how he was going to react with new people...he LOVED them!!!! It made me sooo happy and I felt VERY comfortable with them in my home, taking care of my baby. They were in constant contact, sending me lots of pictures of my baby. I just really can't say how much I appreciate them and will definitely be contacting them every single time I go out of town!!! If you want your babies taken great care of, you should most definitely contact them!!! Thank you so much Robyn and Steven!!!”

“We couldn’t have asked for a better house and dog sitter than Crystal! She took such wonderful care of our home and, most importantly, our Frenchie while we were away. It was clear from the start that she genuinely loves animals, and she treated our pup like her own, giving us complete peace of mind. She kept us updated with messages and photos daily, which made being away so much easier. We returned to a spotless home and a happy, well-cared-for dog. We highly recommend Crystal to anyone looking for a trustworthy, responsible, and caring sitter!”

“Divina is truly the best! Took outstanding care of our elderly pup and home while we were away. Excellent communication, very tidy and went the extra mile to make sure our old man was comfortable throughout her stay. She exudes kindness and is clearly passionate about caring for animals. Can’t recommend her enough!”

Jaime C.

“We had a great experience with Mandy! She stayed in our home for five nights to care for our pack—two dogs and two cats—and when we got home, everyone was happy, healthy, and well cared for. She sent frequent updates and tons of adorable photos, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. Our home was in good shape when we returned, and we appreciated her thoughtfulness and communication throughout the stay. We’d work with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a kind, reliable sitter!”

“Rose stayed with our pets while we were gone for 7 days. Everything that we asked of was done and more! I would recommend Rose if you’re looking for someone to care for your pets.”

“Jamie was quick to fill in on a last minute request. She did a same day meet n greet and the dogs were immediately comfortable with her. She sent photos and updates the entire time she was housesitting with our 2 dogs and gave us peace of mind that they were in great hands while we traveled. Will be reaching out to her again when we travel.”

“Sidnee was more than a dog sitter for us! We had a few house issues arise while we were away and Sidnee helped us take care of the issues while we were out of town. She stayed at our house for 4 nights watching our two active dogs! She took great care of them and left the house just as clean. We appreciate Sidnee so much!”

“Stephanie was AMAZING! She was very proactive in setting up a meet and greet beforehand and asked questions that helped us get to know her. She kept us updated the whole time on how he was and sent photos and pictures to us. She even filmed our pup opening his Christmas gift since we were away for the holiday. Went we came back our house was just as we left it and clean. She even put our recycling and trash at the curb for us. She also left a note and cute little chalkboard for when we got home. We will definitely be using her again!”

“Stephanie did awesome with our babies - she quickly learned their schedule and stuck to it. She let me know when she was leaving and when to expect her back, they were never alone very long. Already booked her for our next trip!”

Ashley T.

“Pam does a wonderful job taking care of Archie and Cooper! Very attentive and providing us plenty of updates and photos while we are away! We appreciate everything she does and know our dogs are in good hands!”

“Therisa stayed overnight for us to keep an eye on our 3 dogs and 4 cats. Two of the dogs are pretty high maintenance and one of the cats has to take meds. Everyone seemed happy and taken care of when we returned the next day! I also received many pictures which I so appreciate. Therisa has great communication. We will definitely be requesting her for future sits!”

Kalin B.

“Jessica was outstanding! She took great care of our girl and was excellent with communication! She left our home exactly as we left it and we were so appreciative of her stepping in last minute! We would 100% use Jessica again. Thank you so much again!”

Kate S.

“I travel frequently for work and added stress of worrying about my dudes is not something I want! Karla is terrific and the boys love her! She’s stayed with my babes a few times for almost a week at a time. She’s incredible about sending messages and photos, is easy to get in touch with and I know when I get home the boys will be happy, healthy, and taken care of (as well as my excessive amount of plants) Thank you!”

About: I love doggies! I always have and always will. I work near my house, so I get to visit home in the afternoons. I walk my fur-baby in the mornings, afternoons and at night. I communicate with clients throughout the day when pets are in my care. I can text photos of your fur-baby during the day to let you know that they just finished a walk. All in all, just know that your fur-baby will be in great hands and will receive great love and attention. I do ask for drop off time 6am to 7am on weekdays, weekends are flexible. I get lunch breaks about 2pm to 3pm. Monday through Friday I'm home by 7pm. Mostly, all my weekends are open. I have a fenced in yard, plenty of outdoor space in my small neighborhood. One 5lb shitzu who is very vocal and playful. Zora is sweet and shy; sometimes nervous in the first hour or so but once she is comfortable she is very loving. I have an empty spare room for privacy if needed for your fur-baby.

About: With over 12 years of petcare experience and multiple indoor pets myself, I think it's safe to say that I love animals! Situated on a 1 acre property, with a fenced front yard, this could be your pets getaway while you get away! Because I have grooming and training experience, I could be your one stop drop! I am a freelance pet artist, therefore I have plenty of time to have fun and interact with my animals! We enjoy walking in the lovely Baldwin bike trial and playing in the yard! I'm practically available all day any day! I have a fenced front yard and 4 lovely rough coated collies! My dogs are very social and love to play! Fun in the sun during the day and crated at night! For pick ups I currently have a Ruffland intermediate kennel for car rides to keep your dog as safe as possible!

About: I have tons of experience with animals, some of which have been my own. I currently own a black lab and German shepherd and have owned a Pekinese and tabby cat in the past, meaning I’m comfortable with all sizes of pets! I have pet sat for both family and friends, with no problems each time. I have worked with dog trainers at my previous job as a pet store manager and am aware of dogs’ body language and how to properly interact with them. I am in a very unique position where I work a remote, work-from-home job. This makes me available all days except Wednesdays. This allows me to be able to work around pet parent schedules and stay longer with animals! As already mentioned, I have some dog training knowledge. I have trained both of my dogs and even my horse. I’m comfortable around any size dog and would treat each one as my own. I am well versed in handling multiple situations. I follow directions very well and will do as pet parents wish.

“Mia was great with our dogs and was very responsive, honest, and flexible. We appreciate her time!”

About: Hello! I own a large dog and am comfortable all sizes and breeds. I'm okay with nervous dogs, and those that aren't perfect on leash. I love walking, and nothing beats walking with a dog! I'd be honored to meet your pup. I have flexibility in scheduling, and can do early mornings, late evenings, weekends, or other depending on the needs and my existing schedule. Please reach out with your request and I'm sure we can figure something out. I make sure my pets have a safe and comfortable environment to sleep, eat, play and live. I like to take my dog to see new things, and recognize that mental stimulation is important. I am familiar with dog etiquette and will keep your pet safe

“Marie was great! She came over to meet us and our pups before the booking, and we got to meet her dog Jules who is adorable. She was super helpful and took great care of our babies, and even helped out with a task our landlady needed. Thanks Marie!”
