“I am so grateful for her services. She has been a blessing to me and my animals. She is honest and thorough and goes out of her way to make sure everyone is taken care of. She has a genuine love for animals.”

“Jeweliana and Riley provide loving care to our pets as if they were their own. Very responsible, on time, and great communication! Will definitely request them again!”

“Marilyn was always prompt when visiting with my pups. You can tell she genuinely loves animals and cares for their wellbeing. I would totally book with her again and I’m actually looking forward to it. Thank you for everything!”


About: I treat every pet as if they were my own and strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I naturally connect with animals of all personalities, including shy, anxious, senior, and high energy pets. I believe every pet is unique, and I take the time to learn their routine, preferences, and individual needs. I have experience caring for: • Dogs of all sizes, breeds, and ages • Senior pets requiring extra patience and attention • Cats with a variety of personalities and care needs • Rabbits and other small animals • Pets requiring oral medications and routine care • High-energy pets that need exercise and enrichment I also volunteer with the Jacksonville Humane Society on weekends, where I continue learning about animal behavior, handling, and enrichment while helping care for shelter pets. More than simply feeding or walking pets, I focus on building trust and creating a calm, low stress environment so they feel secure and happy while you’re away. You’ll receive regular updates, photos, and clear communication throughout each visit, giving you peace of mind that your pet is receiving attentive and compassionate care. As a college student with a flexible schedule, pet care is one of my favorite ways to spend my free time. I enjoy staying active with dogs on walks and spending quiet time with cats and other small animals. My schedule allows me to be available throughout the week, including many evenings and weekends, and I do my best to accommodate last minute requests whenever possible. I’m organized, dependable, and committed to providing consistent, loving care that fits seamlessly into your pet’s routine. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, and it’s a rewarding part of my day. I live in a spacious apartment that provides plenty of room for pets to relax and feel comfortable during their stay. I also have a friendly pet rabbit who is accustomed to being around people and other animals. For the safety and comfort of all pets, my rabbit stays in his own private room whenever I am boarding or caring for another animal. My apartment community also has a fully fenced dog park where dogs can enjoy supervised off leash playtime and exercise. Safety is always my top priority, and I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, preferences, and any special needs to help them feel secure, loved, and at home while you’re away. I provide regular updates, photos, and open communication so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is receiving attentive and reliable care.
“Charlayda is AMAZING. My 7 fur babies loved her and were very well taken care of. She helped with multiple house related things including dealing with the police when my alarm went off in the middle of the night. She’s been a wonderful addition to my family care routine and I can’t imagine anyone else in my home or taking care of my fur babies.”


“We love Emily! Our doggies love her more! She has taken very good care of our dogs when we are away and we feel at ease knowing that. She is reliable and caring-- extremely trustworthy and kind.”
“Steven did a great job communicating with me before, after and during the visit. He was very patient with my old boy,Domino giving me great peace of mind. Will definitely book Steven again when the need arises.”

“Karen was great with my new puppy. She was kind, considerate, responsive and caring and followed all instructions well. Will definitely be using her again soon!”


“Ashley was great. This was our first time leaving our kitty and using a pet sitter. We were anxious leaving her but Ashley gave us detailed updates every visit and pictures. She also answered any questions we had. We will definitely request her services again.”

About: I have my own doggies, they are both 3! I’m used too picking up the pet care when parents leave to go out of town and just take stress off their shoulders! Friends and family, cats and dog i’ve always been the one they call. I’m used to very strategic routines with my baby’s so i’m willing to do the same for yours. Doing the best in every way to make my stay with them as comfortable as possible! I currently work 5 days a week 8-2pm and i’m looking too pick up something i’m actually interested in, We all know how a high school job can last after high school when it wasn’t planned and i’m very interested in baby sitting and pet sitting for people and just giving back the love i share with my animals where it’s needed! I have a fenced in yard for both of my puppies and everyday i come home and make sure they get plenty of play time with me. They have a routine with me, I feed them every evening at 5pm and give them supplements for their health so they live the longest and happiest life !

About: I’ve taken care of my personal dogs as well as family dogs for years. I love to play with them and just sit and cuddle with them as well. I am currently a graduate student at Jacksonville University. I am available after 2pm everyday, and on the weekends I can do all day! I am also usually up pretty late at nights so can do late night walks/sitting as well. I am a very trustworthy person. On walks I will make sure they don’t get into anything that may be harmful and always be prepared when in contact with other people/animals.
About: I might not have ever owned dogs myself, due to allergies within my family, but don’t fear! I have always been first choice amongst my parents friends/family to dog sit! I’ve always done a great job & felt confident in my care giving, instruction following, and love and play giving. 🤗 I decided to lean more into my side hustles, and this would be a great additive to keep me moving, having an extra dollar in my pocket, keeping me involved and present with animals, and to be of service to my community. All which I value greatly! My side hustles include running Markets (Mom’s Elderberry booth at the Riverside Arts Market), Basketball/Sports photography, home/kitchen/fridge/depression room cleaning services + energy cleansing, Social Media Managing, creating/selling my own art, and a bunch of other random stuff along the way! I include this information to benefit your understanding of me as a person as well as just in case you have a need for any other service and would like to see if I’m fit for the job :) I am cleanly, careful, and I won’t creep around in your space. I will make our interactions quick, easy, and painless. I will do my very best to consistently keep you in the loop, send you picture updates of your babies, and follow your instructions just as they’re given. If I have questions or would like further direction, I will not be afraid of asking you. I’m a team player and would like to make this service to you feel like a breath of fresh air.
“Cheyenne was absolutely amazing with our three dogs! Before her week-long stay, she took the time to do a meet and greet, and it was obvious from the start that she genuinely cared about getting to know them and their individual needs. Throughout the entire week, she kept us updated with daily messages and pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. When our youngest pup developed an upset stomach, Cheyenne went above and beyond by cooking her rice, making sure she was comfortable, and keeping us informed every step of the way. Not only did she take exceptional care of our dogs, but she also treated our home with incredible care. She cleaned up after them, and on her last day she even cleaned our carpets and mopped the floors so we could come home to a spotless house. That level of thoughtfulness is something you just don’t expect. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter, and we’ll absolutely be booking with Cheyenne again. As much as I want everyone to know how incredible she is, part of me wants to keep her our little secret! 😂 Highly, highly recommend!”

“Samantha is a very respectful and polite lady. She asked me some of the relevant information I forgot to mention and asked what I'd like her to do to make sure we had the same goal. She checked in and out when coming and going and provided me with how the dog did. Great pick!!”

“There’s a reason Evan has a perfect rating. He was able to take care of my cat with only 12 hours notice. It was an unexpected/emergency trip so there was no advanced planning but Evan rolled with it, found everything - food, litter, the house key (!) It really was last minute. Evan even loaded and ran the dishwasher for us so that we didn’t walk into a disaster Highly recommend Evan!”
About: I’ve always had dogs in the family to take care of, but I have had a personal dog for about 4 years now. I’ve been working as a vet tech for almost a year and working with animals has always been a passion! I currently work a full time job, 40 hours in four days. I am more than happy to take care of dogs in the evenings Monday- Thursday, but I am available full time Friday- Sunday! I love to take pups out on long walks to get the energy out. I love playing with toys or chilling watching Netflix with snuggles! I am very open to getting to know each and every pup and personality and finding a routine that works best for them!
About: I've grown up with dogs always around, and until recently my wife and I had multiple large dogs (they have since passed due to either old age or cancer). I have a LOT of practice giving dogs medication, and generally taking care of older dogs. I have done some house training of young dogs for friends and family, but definitely would not say I am an expert. However, patience and consistency are key and I am able to provide those. I currently work full time with an unusual schedule, but am able to do a midday drop in or walk during lunch (which is somewhat flexible for timing) or any time after 3:15PM. I can also be available very early (before 0545) but that would require extra notice. I am happy to follow any and all rules you have, & have no issues if you have pet cams or similar. I will gladly play and interact with your pets as much as either you or they want, in whatever way you think is best.

On short notice, I appreciated that Amelia was so generous with her time. I was pretty harried with an unusual morning but she was calm and attentive to my dog. I felt comfortable leaving her in my home with Rusty and I couldn’t have chosen anyone nicer. We’d love to have her again
