“Kelly was great!! We just boarded our pup with her for the first time and couldn’t be happier - we received daily updates, he was well cared for and truely surrounded by love. We are so excited to finally have a good spot that we can trust to watch our pup and a great overall place that our baby enjoys!!”
“I always prefer a sitter over a boarding facility because I hate the idea that my dogs will be locked up all day. Well, we could tell by how tuckered out they were that they had ALL THE FUN at Larry’s place! He sent pictures of them playing which really put my mind at ease while out of town and he had their things all ready to go at pick up. Thank you, Larry! Bowser and Peaches say thanks too!”

“I’m so happy to have found Uriaha and his wife to watch Cooper. They took wonderful care of him and sent me updates and photos every day. Cooper has so much energy, and Uriaha made sure he got his daily walks and plenty of playtime. Having them care for Cooper gave me peace of mind whenever I needed to travel. I'm so happy to have found a true home away from home for Cooper. I highly recommend them and would gladly book with them again!”
About: Recently moved here from our family farm in central Minnesota, I have experience in working with a multitude of animals. Any animal from dogs to cattle, poultry to pigs and cats to horses! I have experience in dog sitting for neighbors, friends and family with or without being paid. I have a walker hound back home on the farm who loves to run around the farm and lives to hunt so changing his environment from the farm to an apartment didn’t seem fair to do. I miss him dearly, and have such a love for dogs, I would take them all home if I could! I also have experience working on a pig farm as a farrowing technician (assisting in birthing) and all the daily cares and medications from the time they’re born until they are weaned to another farm - also medication administration for sick pigs, including injectables. I have experience and training done on caring for elderly horses. I have experience milking cows and caring for young calves. I have fostered and cared horses until they were able to find homes, which is always tough having to say goodbye and trust they are going to a good home. Out of all the animals in the world, my heart will always love dogs the most. I do enjoy having cats around, unfortunately I am allergic so I can’t have any of my own. But I love dogs with all my heart, I think it’s safe to say I love them more than people! I may be new to the state of Florida, but I have a lot of time and dedication to offer as I am a “stay at home wife” to a husband in the Navy. We will be in the area for the next 5 years, and I would love to meet some people and help with their pets in anyway I can! Even if it’s just a drop in visit so they don’t feels so alone for such a long stretch of the day. I am ready, able and willing to love and care for your dog just as you do! I have TWO letters of recommendation I can share from my previous employers as well. I am a wife to a husband is in the Navy, so anytime he’s gone, I would really love the company!! Currently looking for a part-time job here so I can easily accommodate to pet owners who need boarding services! I live in a secure apartment complex that has a gated parking lot and sidewalks, and a fenced in dog park. It’s very peaceful and quiet here but there’s other dogs to play with as well! I also spend a lot of time walking the beach on the Mayport Naval base and would be more than happy to get your dogs steps in somewhere besides the hot concrete! I don’t have any children yet, and my dog is back home on the farm in Minnesota - not pets here. Just my husband and I!
“Charlatan was amazing! She made Finn feel right at home, sent a lot of photos and videos, and her dog Cocoa and Finn got along great! I will definitely rebook with her if I can in the future!”
“Skylar really enjoyed her time with Kaitlyn and Andrew. She was well cared for and I received frequent picture updates. I will definitely use them again when the need arises. Thank you so much.”
“Shannon was wonderful for our first time dog boarding experience. We received updates and multiple pictures every day! Very prompt and courteous and our Sayla loved it! Highly recommend!⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have cared for pets belonging to family, friends, and neighbors over the years. Through those experiences I’ve learned that every dog has a different personality, routine, and comfort level, and I always try to make them feel safe and at home. I’ve also cared for senior dogs, including administering injectable medication to my own dog when she became diabetic, which taught me patience, attention to detail, and the importance of following care instructions carefully. Whether your dog is energetic or prefers a quiet environment, I’ll provide attentive care, regular walks, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of updates so you can feel confident while you’re away. My schedule allows me to provide pets with plenty of attention throughout the day, so they won’t spend long periods alone. I plan my schedule around each booking to maintain your pet’s normal routine, including feeding times, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and rest. I believe consistency helps dogs feel comfortable, especially when they’re away from home, and I’ll always keep you updated with photos and messages during their stay. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a clean, calm, and organized home where every pet receives individual attention. Before each stay, I take time to learn your pet’s routine, personality, and any special needs so I can provide the best possible care. Since I don’t have a fenced yard, every walk and potty break is supervised, and I never leave pets outside unattended. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages throughout their stay so you always know how they’re doing.

We told here what we needed and she confirmed that she would be able to those tasks and even ones we had not considered. She had an immediate rapport with our pets and it showed when she provided reports about her visits. We give Nicole our highest recommendation.”

“Larry is just great. He's a really nice guy and a gentleman, which is nice to come across these days. We talked to him for 2 minutes and it was clear to us how much he loves the dogs he cares for. We were totally confident leaving our little Sushi with him. Larry sent some terrific photos and touched base throughout the day. We visit the area pretty often and Larry's now our go to sitter in NE Florida. Nice to know that Sushi has a loving family to visit when we're here. Thanks so much, Larry. See you soon.”

About: I have had the joy of having dogs and cats as my companions my entire life! Including 2 painted turtles and fish. I've always had a love for animals and nature. I absolutely enjoy meeting new pet friends of all kinds. I have been pet sitting here in Jacksonville for 3 years now and have had the pleasure of caring for parrots, fish, cats, and dogs. A client of mine has a cat that needs medication as well as my own dog with allergies. I've done pet sitting for my own veterinarian's small farm with ducks, chickens, mini ponies, and mini donkey's as well. I now basic training as my own dog attended puppy classes at the K9 Obedience Club of Jacksonville. In my younger years, I worked in a veterinarian clinic for 2 years. I took a different path and started a career in the medical field in a sleep lab and am now getting back to what I truly love. Pet care! Either way, I have a nurturing nature and will treat your pets just like my own! I am a stay-at-home mom currently. I pick my daughter up from school weekly and am unavailable from 1pm-2:30pm due to the commute. Otherwise, I'm available to care for or play with your pet any other time during the week. I am available anytime on the weekends. I have a large fenced in yard with two friendly dogs for your pets to play with. I crate my own dogs and can do the same for yours if need be. I give my own dog medication for her allergies and can do the same for your own. I never leave outdoor play unattended as I do have a pool. If feeding time is needed, I separate all so as to not cause issues. I give lots of love and attention!
“Katya was great! She stayed in contact and progress updates on how Smokey was doing! Smokey came home exhausted from all the fun and in great shape. Highly recommend! Thank you!”
About: I’ve been caring for animals for about 10 years and grew up around both dogs and cats, so caring for animals has always been a big part of my life. I have experience with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I also have a one year old dog of my own, so I’m very familiar with daily routines, exercise needs, playtime, and providing attentive care and updates. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine since I’m home most of the day and already structure my schedule around caring for my own dog. I’m able to provide frequent potty breaks, walks, playtime, feeding, and attention throughout the day rather than leaving pets alone for long periods. I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to accommodate different routines and give pets consistent care, supervision, and companionship. I live in a pet-friendly apartment community with access to a dog park that I take my own pup to daily for exercise and play. Because my yard is unfenced, all outdoor time and walks are closely supervised and dogs are always kept on leash for safety. I’m home throughout the day, which allows me to provide frequent potty breaks, walks, attention, and companionship based on each dog’s individual routine and needs. I create a calm, clean, and loving environment where pets feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away.
About: I grew up in a country area, we had a lot of animals growing up. We had to take care of chickens, bunnies, roosters, horses, cows, guinea pigs and dogs. I think I have a strong base to take care of a pet appropriately. Plus we are a military family l, most likely you will find us on base! Currently I am employed full time in a working from home environment, at times I can be called in to deploy out of state but I will let you know in advance! Mostly I am available during weekdays in the morning before 8am and in the afternoon after 4:30pm. I can also be available on Saturdays with prior notification/plan. We have a fenced yard, lots of green areas,trails that we can walk to, a dog park and well lit areas. For me this is as serious and delicate as taking care of a child, I will ask owners if treats are allowed or anything that is allowed/not allowed.
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 at the meet and greet. Have a fenced-in yard at home with a security system. Located around animal treatment/medical facilities. I have a 5-year-old German Shepherd who is calm and well-trained.
“I needed a sitter extremely last minute for Butters (the day camp I originally booked was not able to accommodate him since he’s recovering from TPLO surgery) and Lesley responded ASAP. She was so caring and made sure he was comfortable with plenty of potty walks and pets! She also sent lots of updates and photos of how Butters was settling in. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a safe, calm, loving home-away-from-home place for their pup while away.”
“I have never met such a professional and loving dog carer as Suilen. My Teddy simply adored her during his three days staying with her. She sent pictures and videos and I must say it was a pleasure working with Suilen. I would only leave Teddy with her from now on…he had the best time!”

“I’m super grateful she was willing to take my pup on such short notice — her flexibility made things a lot less stressful for me. I would’ve felt even more at ease with a few updates or photos during the day, just to stay in the loop. Thanks again for helping out!”
“Renee was an amazing sitter for our pup! She was kind, attentive, and truly treated him like one of her own. A great bonus was that her dog was nice playmate, which kept our pup happy and entertained. She sent photos and videos throughout the stay, which we really appreciated. We also ended up needing a little extra time for pickup, and Renee was incredibly accommodating and flexible. We’re so grateful for her care and would definitely book with her again!”
“Kaitlyn and Andrew were great with my Dustin boy! They kept me informed all day of his activities and how he was coming along! Highly recommend and I’ll definitely use them again! Thanks for caring for my Dustin!!”

I am currently working part time and my only set hours are Friday, Saturday, and Sunday from 8am to 12pm, outside of those hours my time is free to be spent with your pets! I am very active and love to go for walks or runs if that is something your pup would like to join me in (usually in the early morning or evenings to avoid that Florida heat!).

About: I've been an animal lover for as long as I can remember. Growing up I had two Lhasa Apso pups and two cats so caring for pets has been a big part of my life. As they got older, I helped give them their medications and make them feel comfortable. Over the years, my family has added three pups - two Toy Poodles and one Shih Tzu, who I have helped raised since they were puppies. I also have two of my own: an Australian Shepherd and a Bernese Mountain Dog, both whom I have raised since they were 8 weeks old. Through them, I have lots of experience in puppy training and recognizing that each pup is unique and has different needs. I also have experience caring for cats. My childhood cat developed health issues in her senior years, and I helped care for her through monthly vet visits and multiple medications, giving me first hand experience with the extra patience and attention senior cats need. My family also added a friendly tuxedo kitten to the bunch and my boyfriend has a shy cat as well. So I am comfortable caring for cats with outgoing or more reserved feline personalities. I understand that every pet has different needs, and I always strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they're in my care. Whether your pet is energetic and playful, shy and cautious, or a senior needing extra patience, I'll care for them as if they were my own. I have plenty of time to look after your pup or feline! While I prefer to watch your pet between 8-5 so I can also spend time with my own pets, I understand there are times after work or on the weekends when you need to leave your furry friend to go and enjoy yourself without feeling guilty leaving them behind. In these cases, I can absolutely make exceptions. Every pet has their own routine, preferences, and unique needs so I will take the time to follow your care instructions closely. Whether that's sticking to a feeding schedule, administering medications, or going on walks, I will make sure your pet's routine stays as consistent as possible. My goal is to help your pet feel safe and give you peace of mind knowing your pet is cared for and loved while you're away. I'll care for them the way you ask while also treating them with the same affection and attention I give my own pets. I understand how important it is to trust someone with a member of your family, so I will do everything to care for them!
About: I’ve always lived with many cats and dogs my whole life. I’ve had a variety of pets of all ages including rabbits, snakes, bearded dragons, hamsters. I’ve also fostered many kittens and puppies and I currently have 2 dogs and 2 cats, the majority rescues. I’m a huge animal lover! I am mostly a stay at home mom with 4 pets. We take the dogs on daily walks and sometimes to the park. We are always spending time outdoors in our spacious back yard with our dogs running around and cats climbing trees and roofs and such! I have 2 dogs and 2 cats both very friendly if spending time together! I also have a fenced in yard with a garden. I have a separate indoor petroom stocked with a couple crates (if needed for my big dog), enclosed cat litter boxes, a large cat climbing tree, plenty of pet food and treats, many water bowls and toys for all! And a very family friendly neighborhood for walks and a spacious (not fenced) park as well.
“Ashley is very prompt and dependable. She is a very sweet person and took good care of our CKC Spaniel while we were in Jacksonville for a medical procedure. I recommend her and will use her in the future.”
About: I love dogs of every kind, they’re all so fun to learn and play with. I’ve been around dogs my whole life and have two of my own. I specialize in giving medication, snuggles and play time. I also love a good puppy challenge! I work at a vet clinic four days a week, I also dog sit on the side all the time! I love being available when pet parents need it most ! In my home or yours all is the same. The fur babies are treated like family and are never not loved. Mine are spoiled at home and I hope to spoil yours at your house if need be. Love and safety are the top priorities

“Kelly was great!! We just boarded our pup with her for the first time and couldn’t be happier - we received daily updates, he was well cared for and truely surrounded by love. We are so excited to finally have a good spot that we can trust to watch our pup and a great overall place that our baby enjoys!!”

I'm so happy to have found a true home away from home for Cooper. I highly recommend them and would gladly book with them again!”
About: Recently moved here from our family farm in central Minnesota, I have experience in working with a multitude of animals. Any animal from dogs to cattle, poultry to pigs and cats to horses! I have experience in dog sitting for neighbors, friends and family with or without being paid. I have a walker hound back home on the farm who loves to run around the farm and lives to hunt so changing his environment from the farm to an apartment didn’t seem fair to do. I miss him dearly, and have such a love for dogs, I would take them all home if I could! I also have experience working on a pig farm as a farrowing technician (assisting in birthing) and all the daily cares and medications from the time they’re born until they are weaned to another farm - also medication administration for sick pigs, including injectables. I have experience and training done on caring for elderly horses. I have experience milking cows and caring for young calves. I have fostered and cared horses until they were able to find homes, which is always tough having to say goodbye and trust they are going to a good home. Out of all the animals in the world, my heart will always love dogs the most. I do enjoy having cats around, unfortunately I am allergic so I can’t have any of my own. But I love dogs with all my heart, I think it’s safe to say I love them more than people! I may be new to the state of Florida, but I have a lot of time and dedication to offer as I am a “stay at home wife” to a husband in the Navy. We will be in the area for the next 5 years, and I would love to meet some people and help with their pets in anyway I can! Even if it’s just a drop in visit so they don’t feels so alone for such a long stretch of the day. I am ready, able and willing to love and care for your dog just as you do! I have TWO letters of recommendation I can share from my previous employers as well. I am a wife to a husband is in the Navy, so anytime he’s gone, I would really love the company!! Currently looking for a part-time job here so I can easily accommodate to pet owners who need boarding services! I live in a secure apartment complex that has a gated parking lot and sidewalks, and a fenced in dog park. It’s very peaceful and quiet here but there’s other dogs to play with as well! I also spend a lot of time walking the beach on the Mayport Naval base and would be more than happy to get your dogs steps in somewhere besides the hot concrete! I don’t have any children yet, and my dog is back home on the farm in Minnesota - not pets here. Just my husband and I!
“Charlatan was amazing! She made Finn feel right at home, sent a lot of photos and videos, and her dog Cocoa and Finn got along great! I will definitely rebook with her if I can in the future!”
“Shannon was wonderful for our first time dog boarding experience. We received updates and multiple pictures every day! Very prompt and courteous and our Sayla loved it! Highly recommend!⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”
“Our dog enjoyed another great week-long stay with Hannah! From the moment we dropped her off, our dog was so excited to come stay with them again that she didn’t even look back. She seemed completely at peace with the love and treats she got at her home away from home for the week. They sent pics and funny updates throughout her stay and we wouldn’t hesitate to board her again with them. Highly recommended!”
“Lexi provided such loving care for our Sophie girl over the course of a week. Every day she sent photos, updates, and sweet videos. Meeting Lexi, you automatically can sense how wonderful of a caregiver she is to her own pets and how great she’d be with your own. We were so thankful to her: Sophie came back tuckered and happy, and we loved that she made some new friends too! We’d love to book her again!”

“Highly recommend Marlena! She was great about making my BIG babies feel comfortable (my female has really bad separation anxiety & immediately connected with Marlena!) She was great about sending updates and very communicative, it was so nice to leave my pups (without worry) for a weekend out of town! We will definitely be booking with Marlena & Phil again! Thanks so much for loving my babies & making them feel safe.”
“"Fantastic dog sitter! They took wonderful care of our dog, provided regular updates and photos, and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. Our pup was happy and well cared for. Highly recommend and would gladly book again!"”
