Pet Sitting & Drop Ins in Royal Terrace, Jacksonville, FL

“I was so nervous having someone else in my home that I didn't know but Jada came and met me and my zoo ahead of time. She was great and sent me photos and messages at every visit! Definitely will book with her again!!”

“Katie was absolute perfection. Lena takes a long time to warm up to new people but she immediately attached herself to Katie. Katie was so patient and kind towards my dog and made me feel completely at ease. She took a multitude of pictures and updated me about how every visit went!”

Brianna H.

“We've hired Rae on multiple occasions to do drop ins to let our pup out. He has just a good time! And she's even brought rain jackets out when it was raining - it was adorable!”

Jessica M.

“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!”

Crystal A.

“Karen is amazing. Played with my two cats, showed up on time. Followed instructions to a "T", and my girls really appreciated her company and care. Made going out of town easy and stress free. I'll definitely book again when I need cat care, I cannot stress how amazing of an experience this was!”

Nicolas M.

“Mandy was AMAZING!!! She was very flexible to come help us on short notice. She took our dog on great walks, and stayed over to play fetch with her. She also takes amazing photos! We will definitely be using Mandy again in the future”

Maggie N.

“Went above and beyond for my sweet fur babies! She was constantly providing me with updates and pictures, I didn’t worry about my puppers when they were in her care!”

Catherine K.

“Came through for me and my boys in my time of need. Forever grateful!”

About: Hi friends! First let me say, thank you for considering me as a potential caretaker for your fur babies. I take my job very seriously with heart and compassion. I have had a life surrounded by pets ever since I can remember. I have trained German Shepards with my uncle, done volunteer work with kittens and care for three disabled pets of my own currently. I also work at the humane society with many animals in need. At home and work, I am relied on for bathing, feeding, walking, medication and more. I have experience with all ages and temperaments of animals. Thank you for taking the time to review my profile, I hope your needs are perfectly met! My schedule does vary but I am mostly available early mornings and late afternoons however I always keep my calendar updated for so you can get the most accurate bookings. I genuinely care for your pets comfort and believe in treating them with true respect. I am extremely patient and fantastic at deescalating tough situations. I am able to administer medications and crate dogs when needed.

About: What sets me apart as a pet sitter is my genuine love for animals and the personalized attention I give to each pet. I have experience with all types of breeds and personalities, from high-energy pups who love to play to more laid-back pets who just want companionship. I take the time to understand their unique needs, whether it’s extra belly rubs, long walks, or just someone to hang out with while you’re away. I also know how important it is for you to feel connected, so I always provide updates, photos, and videos. You can count on me to be reliable, trustworthy, and completely committed to your fur baby’s happiness and well-being! Me having two fur babies of my own, you can always guarantee I will treat your pets like family. Pet care is a big part of my daily routine, and since I’m currently unemployed, I have plenty of time to give your pet the attention they deserve! I’m able to be flexible and work around your pet’s needs. I’m also available to board on weekends and on weekdays after 4 PM, making it easy for you to find reliable care whenever you need it. I have a small fenced in area for your fur babies to run and play. I also have two friendly dogs of my own to keep your pet company. If your dog needs a break I can kennel them easily. Your pets are allowed to my home their home while you’re away.

About: I love all animals. I lost my bull mastif/lab mix, Honey Bear, in February 2018. She was 12 1/2 yo. As well as my tabby, Eli, who was 19y/o, in March 2020. I am not ready for a new pupor kitten, so I thought this would provide an avenue to express my love for animals as well as help others. One of my favorites is dog walking. Because I work from home I am able to invest more outdoor activities for your furbabies. I do not have a fenced yard, however I am close to areas that can accomodate. I am very attentive and experienced to handling larger dog breeds and cats. If you are looking for someome that will love your pets as her own, please contact me. I look forward to hearing from you. Thank you in advance for your consideration!

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. I currently work full time hospital hours (12 hour shifts, 3x a week) so on days I work it is hard to schedule walks, but I’m available pretty much all day any other days. I will keep my schedule updated so clients can see what days I’m available, as my schedule does tend to change around often. 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.

“This was our first time having Meghan care for our two kitties (big cats). My first comment is, she is a blessing. Due to unforeseen circumstances we were without a cat sitter shortly before going out of country for over 2 weeks and were more than a little stressed. Luckily, we found Meghan who not only was available but made us feel totally at ease. She is a great communicator and goes the extra mile. I can't say enough good things about her. We will definitely continue to have her care for our kitties for all of our future needs.”

About: My family and I love animals. I enjoy taking our dog to the dog park and cuddling with our kitten. They are both friendly with other pets. I will be sure to give your fur baby the attention and love needed while you are away. My schedule is quite accommodating for pet owners. I work night shift so I am able to take care of your pet during the day and I work in 4 day shifts. Meaning when I schedule for visits I am off for a specific number of days and can provide full time care. I have a large enough house and fenced in back yard to separate animals and give them the space and roaming freedom they need. I ensure safety and trust.

About: I own and run a grooming/boarding facility here in Jax. Petcare is my passion! Branching out to include petsitting as well, so as to offer a one-stop shop of sorts for all your pet care needs. I provide courier service to vet appts and can groom your pups should you need those services during your vacation! Being that I run my own business, I set my hours, so I can do the same when caring for your pets. I have vet tech experience and am a certified pet groomer. I can administer meds, assist with potty training needs, clean litter boxes, do light house cleaning and make your home appear lived in, ALL while entertaining your babies and keeping them safe. When I come to your home, your pets will be provided loads of love and attention, all while remaining where they feel most comfy, in THEIR home! Should grooming services be needed, I can provide that as well. All dogs will receive a free exit bath! This includes nail trimming and ear cleaning.

“We are so glad to have chosen Danielle to check in on our cat, Mo. She’s a really nice gal and more importantly Mo approved……and he’s not easy to please! She visited everyday and sent us pics. We’d definitely use her services again if we need to!”

“Erika is calm, trustworthy, and knowledgeable. She has been coming to my house to do midday drop ins for my two sighthounds. They are usually reserved around new people, but Erika won them over right away. Highly recommend!”

Andrea D.

“Would highly recommend. She was understanding, patient when I became sick and needed to be flexible. I believe she was fair and honest. I will definitely use her again in the future.”

About: I have cared for many animals over the past 18 years while managing a pet resort. I have also walked dogs during my lunch hour. I recently retired after 18 years in veterinary medicine and managing pet resort. I have always loved animals and have 6 dogs of my own. I have a 6 foot fenced yard and have 6 dogs of my own. My dogs are dog friendly and go to daycare often and play.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities since I was a teenager. From playful puppies to senior dogs who need extra patience, neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, and love their pets like my own. As a U.S. Army Veteran, I bring reliability, discipline, and responsibility to every booking. I also live an active lifestyle, so high energy dogs who need long walks or runs are a perfect match for me. I currently work part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility for pet care throughout the week. I’m available mornings, afternoons, and evenings, and I can accommodate overnight stays or daily walks. Since I stay active, I love giving dogs the exercise they need — from casual walks to longer runs for high-energy pups. As a U.S. Army Veteran, I bring discipline, reliability, and responsibility to every booking. Safety is my top priority. I always keep pets on-leash in public, double-check gates and doors, and follow each owner’s instructions carefully
