About: I’ve had dogs in my house since I was born, they’re a natural element of the home. I’d love to cater to your pups needs & give them the best care while you are away! I am currently a nighttime bartender part time, my shifts are from 4-9 pm in the Atlantic Beach area. It’s a short enough shift that I’m able to pet sit & pay visits before & after my job! They’re also pretty flexible with me if I need to leave earlier. I do not have space to house your pet, as I unfortunately live in an apartment complex. But I can assure you I will keep your pet company, and can do any house chores if you need while you’re away! I also have my phone on me at ALL times!
“Karianna, is amazing! Her 1st time with my Heaven was impressive, especially after the first walk she told me Heaven was a dominant dog and I never share that with her. 😇 There’s a lot more but all I would say is… I recommend her to everyone. 🥰”
“I can’t think of a more loving and capable caregiver than Brittany! Brittany did an amazing job with my Scarlett! My dog took a liking to Brittany immediately and she just connected with her so well. Brittany was extremely communicative, friendly, and very professional. We will be using Brittany regularly in the future for all our pet caregiving needs, and we would recommend her to anyone!”
“Erin was great with Roman! She sent pictures with each visit and was sure to tell me how he was doing each day. I will definitely be using her again! Thank you, Erin!”
“Stephanie was AMAZING!!! Best cat sitter I’ve ever had by far. She was communicative in just the right way, and I loved how she showed you each drop-in when she started and stopped. She went above and beyond, even bringing a small bag of treats over when I told her I didn’t get around to buying any before my trip and felt bad about it! So sweet, I would DEFINITELY recommend her!!💕🥰😻”
About: Love for animals has been a part of my life since early childhood. We were taught compassion and kindness for every kind of animal, big and small. I know that a pet is cherished as a part of a your family, as they have always been a part of mine. My current lifestyle allows me to be available to you most days. I am extremely flexible and looking forward to being there for your pet care needs. It’s my mission to give you a little piece of mind that your pet is loved and cared for just as carefully as when you are home.
“Chelsea is amazing with my cats! I have a very skiddish cat that doesn’t let people pet her or get near her much, including me, and my cat let her pet her! Chelsea was communicative, on time, and very sweet! She’ll be my go to person for my kitties!”
“Scott was so helpful while I was away for this weeks’ work travel, dropping in a few times each day to feed, walk and play with the pups. He's always on time as agreed, gives them lots of activity and attention, and they love his company.”
About: I’ve taken care of small, medium and large dogs. I’ve been doing it for 4 years, I can also bathe and train the dogs to sit, paw, and lay down. I work as a receptionist at a veterinary clinic, so I’m around pets all day and love every second of it. I have dogs and cats of my own, so I know how important it is to have someone trustworthy caring for your furry family members. Whether it’s playtime, cuddles, or walks, I make sure every pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. My availability: 🐾 Monday–Thursday: After 6 PM 🐾 Friday–Sunday: Available anytime I provide a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment where your dog can relax and feel at home. Whether we’re going for a walk, playing, or just hanging out, I always make sure your pet is secure, loved, and well cared for.
