Pet Sitting Riverside

“Amber was terrific with my kitties. She sent lots of pictures showing what they doing and texts keeping us informed of their eating, drinking and playing. She is very conscientious and the house was in great shape when we returned. My cats warmed up to her quickly which is quite unusual and I have booked her for our next trip later in the month.”

“I cannot recommend Patrick D. enough! From the moment we first connected, he was professional, kind, and clearly passionate about animals. He took care of my dogs as if they were his own — sending regular updates, photos, and even little notes about how the day went, which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. Kevin and William absolutely adored HIM (which says a lot, because they're usually a bit shy with new people). When I came home, everything was spotless, my pets were happy, and their routine had been perfectly followed. Patrick went above and beyond in every way. If you're looking for someone trustworthy, responsible, and genuinely caring, look no further. I will absolutely be booking with him again!”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs most of my life and have lived with multiple cat owners as well. I feel like pets like my calm and loving demeanor 😊 I enjoy the flexibility this profession allows and I love the outdoors. If your pet wants a long walk in the sun or just needs to stretch its legs in the backyard I’m down for either! 😁 I feel as though my laid back demeanor is great for working with animals and even the pickiest cats have fallen for me. I’m great at reading the body language of animals and know when they want a belly rub or when they want me to sit six feet away.

About: I have been caring for pets for several years, helping close friends by providing dependable and loving care for their animals whenever they needed it. Through this experience, I've learned how important it is to be patient, attentive, and to follow each pet's unique routine. I'm also a proud pet owner myself, with one beautiful dog named Luna and three cats—Wedge, Benimaru, and Ainz. Caring for my own pets every day has given me hands-on experience with feeding, exercise, playtime, litter box maintenance, administering basic care, and recognizing when a pet needs extra attention. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, and I treat every animal as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I work Tuesday through Saturday from 4:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m., which leaves me available during mornings, afternoons, evenings after work, and all day on Sundays and Mondays. I make pet care a priority and ensure every pet receives the attention, exercise, affection, and reliable care they deserve while their owners are away. Whether I'm caring for pets in my home or in a client's home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I make sure they have fresh food and water, regular potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and plenty of love and attention. I follow any specific instructions provided by the owner, including feeding schedules, medications, and favorite activities. I also keep pet parents updated with photos and messages so they can have peace of mind knowing their furry family member is safe, happy, and well cared for.

“Margaret was easy to work with and did just as asked in coming to check on our cat and take care of food, water, and litter box. I recommend Margaret!”

“Thank you so much. You were so amazing with her and we cannot tell you how much it means to know our girl was taken care of. We will be booking with you again soon. Thank you !!!!”

“Christian was amazing! She was very patient with my spoiled only cat. She petted him when he let her and left him alone when he wouldn’t. I liked the pictures she sent at every visit and she had the great idea of leaving snacks around the house to keep him from being bored. I would love to book her again but sadly for me/lucky for Florida she is moving. Anyone who hires her would be very lucky.”

“Brooke was very attentive and responsive taking care of my cats while I was away for a couple days. She cleaned up after them rather than just doing the bare minimum. I would definitely book again! Thank you!”

About: I’ve been around pets (mostly dogs) since I was about 10. From family pets to friends pets, life is just better with them in it. I work a hybrid work schedule. Usually WFH on Mondays and Fridays, and in the office Tuesday-Thursday from 9-4 in Frisco. I can be pretty flexible within reason! I live in an apartment complex that has two dog parks, recently upgraded. I live off the Katy trail so I walk at least 3 miles nearly every day if your pup loves exercise!! I let pets on the furniture, and don’t mind sharing my bed. I want your pets to be as comfortable as possible while away from you.

“She was AMAZING!! So kind and the dogs loved her!! One of my babies sometimes is a little hard and she did amazing with him! So many pictures and even played with them so much! WILL HIRE AGAIN!!”

About: I have my own dog who I have raised since 7 weeks old (currently 8). Together we have spent way too many nights at PetSmart in training classes. Daily walks, fetch outside and a routine have helped us thrive together. Friends and family have recognized the special care their animals receive when in my care and continue to ask me to watch them. I have a pretty flexible week-day job and often times have the ability to work remotely. Most weekends have availability for check-ins, walks or boarding. I have a fenced in yard and safe walking path nearby. I have a gentle 8 year old lab that loves to play with humans and pets alike.

“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!!!”

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats for over 10 years. It’s a true joy and pleasure. Love spending my time with them as creating bonds I am available 2-8 hours a week. I work full time and miss having my own dog, so sitting dogs comes naturally and a is a joy. I can walk, board, and clean after dogs. With cats it’s the same and clean the litter box. Spend time playing with them and taking care of any anxieties.

“As always we appreciate Pam taking care of Cooper! She makes sure he keeps to his schedule, communicates and is always on time! Updates us with plenty of photos!”

About: I've loved and cared for animals for as long as I can remember. I grew up in a farm in PR. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to feed, walk, play with, and care for their pets while they were away. I understand that every animal has a unique personality, and I take the time to earn their trust at their own pace. I'm especially patient with shy, anxious, or senior pets and believe they deserve gentle, compassionate care. Whether it's keeping your pet active with walks and playtime or simply keeping them company and maintaining their routine, I'll treat them with the same love and attention I give my own. My goal is to make sure both you and your pet feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while you're apart. I also speak fluent Spanish, some Portuguese I do work a full time job as an optician (15 years) but looking into going to college for animal pshycology and behavior. Im available mostly weekends right now and some weekdays. My happiest is when I'm surrounded with animals since I grew up in a farm in PR it's been my dream to create a sanctuary for all animals. Right now not offering services in my home. I share my home with my sweet dog, Alice, who has taught me a great deal about patience, positive reinforcement, and understanding different personalities. And my beautiful affectionate senior cat, ophilia, who can't get enough cuddles and treats ❤️

“Outstanding! They were punctual, communicative, and followed instructions that were somewhat complicated. My kitties were well taken care of! they stopped by the day that the hurricane was passing near Jacksonville and were willing to bring in my couple of pieces of patio furniture and then place it back out (so the wind didn’t carry them away during the storm.) Highly recommend to others and would absolutely book again.”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs in the household my entire life! I volunteer with a dog rescue group as well as dog rescue transports. The safety and care of a dogs life is very important to me and my life wouldn’t be complete without them! I recently moved to Jacksonville, giving me full availability to take care of your animals and give them the love they need! I am able to do days and nights, depending on the care you need for them. I am kind and patient, allowing your animal to take the time they need to trust me. I have a few animals at home that are well spoiled and are very much given love!

About: I’ve loved animals since I can remember! I’ve rescued every pet imaginable at one point or another! I’ve volunteered at FCNMHP for over 10 years and I’m very active in finding every pet a forever home! I’ve worked at Publix for over 21 years and I am currently a manager on the south side of Jacksonville. I have a flexible schedule throughout the day and I’m able to take breaks when needed. I am free most evening during the week and weekend. I’ve never met an animal that I didn’t fall in love with! Every animal deserves a full bowl of food and water, lots of pets, an unconditional love. There’s no such thing as an ending to the game of Fetch!
