House Sitting in The Cape, Jacksonville, FL

“After having a terrible experience with another sitter through Rover I cannot recommend Jeweliana & Riley enough!!!! They provided easy communication and lots of photos completely erasing the stress I normally feel when we are away from our pets on travel. We will definitely be using them again!!!”

About: I’ve spent over 15 years in the pet care world, gaining hands-on experience in a variety of settings — from veterinary clinics and kennels to long-term boarding facilities, doggy daycares, and canine training, including work with both gentle companions and those with behavioral challenges. At home, I share my life with two Australian Shepherds and three other wonderful dogs. To me, pets are far more than just animals — they’re family. The bond we share with them is one of life’s greatest rewards, and I believe their physical and mental well-being is the foundation for that special connection. Every tail wag, happy bark, and content sigh reminds me why I do what I do. Pet care is my passion, which means I’m available to meet your pet’s needs any time — day or night, seven days a week. My typical schedule allows limited weekday care, staring at 5pm. I am available anytime on weekends. I have a large, secure fenced yard and two friendly dogs who love to play and help keep visiting pups engaged and happy. If your dog prefers a quieter pace, I’m always ready for one-on-one time — whether that’s playing, going for walks, running, hiking, exploring, or simply snuggling. No pet should ever feel unwanted, and I treat every animal in my care as if they were my own.

“She is very nice.”

“Dillon is awesome! He was our house/dog sitter for six days while we were out of state. it was so nice to come home to a happy dog and a clean house! Dillon went above and beyond caring for our home and our Zeva. if I could give him 10 stars I would! I highly recommend Dillon to anyone looking for a reliable, caring pet sitter!”

“Stephanie is everything I wanted for my precious baby! She's a great communicator and sent me some great pictures on a daily basis. She's responsible and shows her love of dogs. Took the worry and stress out of leaving my sweet Bruster. I even think he'll miss her!”

“Laura was amazing as always with our girls! She takes such good care of them and communicates daily with us! Can’t wait to have Laura watch them again. 🩷🩷”

“10/10 Recommend. ShaRonda was wonderful to my fur babies, communication was excellent. Even my shy kitty came out to greet and get some love. I’m so happy with how professional and friendly everything went. I felt super at ease while away on my trip, especially knowing my dog Sunny has anxiety issues along with storm anxiety. Wonderful feeling knowing that she took care of my babies as if they were her own. Will absolutely hire again if I have another trip!”

“Ligia was an excellent choice for our fur babies . She sent photos of both dogs and kept us up to date with their care. She left our home clean and tidy and gave notice when she arrived and left . We are greatful for her care”

About: Pet sitting has always been a joyous hobby of mine, and I would love to take care of your animal. I have had pets my whole life, and have pet sat for many years. I’m primarily a student, and also work as a research assistant with one of my professors. My schedule is relatively open this semester though, and I should be able to adequately take care of any of your pets with ample attention given. I have a fenced in backyard, and a cat tower for any pets that come and stay in our home. I’m also happy to take any animals on walks.

About: Hi, you are looking at a lifelong animal love who just quit her corporate job to love on dogs full time! 🥰 About me: active, healthy, woman in my mid 40s with lots of love to give. My mom raised maltese pups since I was a little kid. I raised my own mini dachshund since I was 18 who lived a full life until she crossed the rainbow bridge at 16.5 years old. I also had many cats and rescued a pup that wandered into our front yard. Dogs are MY life, so I happily welcomed Jaxie (mini dachshund) into my family in Feb '20. He is such a sweet boy - loves belly rubs, hunting lizards, and playing with all his furfriends. If you have a friendly pup who enjoys the company of another friendly pup, come on over! Your pup will have so much fun. Jaxie plays very nice (very submissive, is always on his back, even with chihuahuas) and loves to get chased and be chased. Jaxie is not food aggressive. And, he's not toy aggressive either - he loves sharing his many toys with his furfriends! Or, if your pup doesn’t want to play, Jaxie is great matching his energy level to other pups. We’ve had many older pups here where Jaxie leaves them alone out of respect. On the other hand, he’s also amazed pet parents by getting their older pups to play! My 24/7 job is to take care of your furbaby I'll be home with your furbaby all day, watching over them, snuggling them, and making sure they stay safe and enriched with playtime. We have lots of toys here! House is organized and clean at all times. My fiance is a firefighter who works 1 day on, 2 days off. As such, on his off days, he's home all day. We live at the end of a cul-de-sac in a very small and quiet neighborhood. Backyard is fully fenced and backs up to a creek. No neighbors in the back. Whenever your pup is in the backyard, I am always out there. Your pup is never unattended outside. Your fur baby can sleep and hangout where ever they want (couch, bed, dog beds). If your dog loves walks, we'll go on walks. If your dog has a sweet tooth, we'll get pup cups! Or, if your fur baby just wants to chill, we can do that too! I sync my energy level to your dog's energy level. I do not take any other dogs during the same time period as I am caring for your pup. I can do drop in visits or walks if you live fairly close to me. Finally, I am a good communicator (can't you tell by this dissertation; ha!) and will send updates and pics at least 3 times a day. If you want less, just let me know. :) My daily routine revolves around my own dog, so rest assured your dog will be treated like family, and will be given the same amount of care and attention; dogs are #1 in my household! When I take care of your furbaby, ensuring your furbaby is happy, fulfilled, and loved is my number #1 goal! We can do meet and greets via Zoom or at my house. Your call!

About: I've raised and trained a guide dog, and I've been a frequent volunteer at the local animal shelter since I was 16. I'd be thrilled to come hang out with your pets! I'm currently on the job hunt, so most times work for me! I'm pretty flexible with days and times, just feel free to message me! I'm a very experienced pet owner- I'm comfortable and confident handling all sorts of animals, and you can absolutely trust me to take care of your furry family

“I’ll start by saying that before choosing Megan we looked at quite a few of the sitters on this site. We left on 22 December and return on January 3. That being said it was a lot to ask of any sitter to babysitter over the holidays on such short notice. When I met Megan, I felt so comfortable with her. She stayed for a meet and greet for quite a while to get used to our animals. She accepted our timeslots, even though it was over the holidays. We felt like she was more than worth what she was charging as she was losing time with her family over the holidays and offering to stay with our pets so that we could go out of state to spend time with ours. It was very important to us that we had someone we could trust she was staying in our home to sit for our animals, I can say that I am so happy that we chose her. She was amazing. Gave us daily updates videos and made us comfortable. We were able to enjoy our visit without having to worry about our animals. They are not enough stars to rate for the job that she did and the peace of mind that we had. I would highly recommend her and would definitely use her again. Megan thank you so much. We appreciate everything that you did for us.🦮🐈‍⬛ Buddy and Zoie miss you ❤️❤️❤️”

About: Your pet(s) will be treated and cared for like family, and the environment is calming, secure, and quiet to assist with comfort and boarding stay. I'm currently part-time, however, I can make adjustments as necessary and can board daily and on weekdays, weekends, and holidays. We can discuss the details of the care for your fur baby. Have a fenced-in yard at home with security system. Located around animal treatment/medical facilities. I have a 4-year-old German shepherd who is calm and well-trained.

About: Before moving, I use to work at UF vet hospital as an assistant and technician. While working there I would house-sit and pet-sit for the doctors I worked with. I have been in the animal field for at least 3 years and continue to be in this field. I also have experience in primary care. I have two pups of my own. I currently work part-time and would have plenty of time to watch over your loved fur-ones. I’m free majority of weekends and mostly the week days. I live in an apartment so having them over will be a little challenging but I’m happy to work with it. I have two dogs who are friendly and love making friends. If your pet is more comfortable in their own home, I am happy to keep them all the company.

“Darby was amazing! She communicated perfectly, gave us updates everyday with pictures and our dogs loved her! Highly recommended and will definitely be using again.”

About: Over the years, my love for animals has grown immensely. Dogs are cute and cuddly little furries that will never grow up and will give you unconditional love. I am currently available for a wide variety of options as I do not have a job and don't having one for the foreseeable future. I have a screened in porch, a big back yard and one small Maltese to keep your dog company. It is a very quiet neighborhood.

About: I’ve loved animals since I was little and have always wanted to work with them. I may be new to pet sitting, but I’m caring, responsible, and excited to give your dog and cat lots of attention and love. I’m currently available for pet care during the day, from 9 AM to 2 PM, which makes me a great fit for mid-day walks, check-ins, or keeping your pet company while you're at work or running errands. Your pet’s safety is my top priority. I’ll always follow your instructions closely and make sure your furry friend feels safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away.

About: I have taken care of all kinds of animals since I was very young. I have always been passionate about caring for animals and getting to know the creatures I encounter. I work from home with a pretty flexible schedule. I can pop over to take the dogs out for a walk or be available for feeding or whatever your pet may need. My pets are my life and I do anything I can to make their lives as wonderful as it can be. I would love to help other pets live their best lives.

“Angie and her daughter came to our home several times per day to care for our 4 furkids. They were SO amazing and went above and beyond to make sure that they were getting lovins and well cared for; they also looked after our home bringing in the mail and taking out the trash while we were gone. I’d highly recommended them!!”
