“Absolutely amazing pet sitting experience! My pets were happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for while I was away. Communication was excellent with regular updates and photos, which gave me complete peace of mind. Reliable, professional, and genuinely caring — I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy pet care. I’ll definitely be booking again.”
“Christine was amazing! Accommodated a last minute boarding for my 2 year old pug (Luna) — which was a life saver! She sent frequent updates of her snuggling with Luna, playing with her, and even napping with her. Highly recommend 😊”
“Cindy was amazing!! My dog took to her quickly and I was very comfortable leaving my pup with her. She communicated with me whenever she had a question and sent pictures and text to let me know how the day went. Will use her again for dog sitting soon!”
“Highly recommend Charlayda. I was so worried leaving my baby for over a week but she quickly put my helicopter mom mind to rest. As soon as I left she sent me plenty of pics and videos. Infact she made sure she kept updating me for the whole week I was gone. She has a nice yard and spacious house enough for my big baby to move around. She was flexible too and was good on follow ups. Will be using her services again. Thank you so much! ❤️”
“Always a great experience when Emma watches Margie! She always sends pictures and keeps us updated on her stay! Margie always looks so happy and cared for! ❤️”
“Wendy was the best pup sitter we’ve had. She took great care of Willow and sent me pics so I could see her. Willow had a blast in their fenced in yard and got great exercise! I will definitely be bringing Willow there again!”
“So very thankful to Randy for watching our furbaby for us! They have the perfect yard for him to run around and we felt completely at ease with the frequent videos and picture updates.”

“Tannia and her husband were wonderful with Dustin! She sent lots of photos and updates on his visit. They made me feel very comfortable leaving Dustin in their care. I will definitely be calling them the next time I need a sitter.”
“Rachel was a godsend. She took my 90 lb. puppy for 3 days after I was injured. Aldo and her dog played for 3 days straight, she said, and he came home exhausted, clearly happy and in love with Rachel and her daughter. I cannot possibly give her a high enough recommendation. Of course I will hire her again.”
“I would definitely recommend Patti to any pet parent that wants their fur baby taken care of like they were family. Patti had great follow up & made sure I had plenty of photos and videos of my boy Flex. She made sure to communicate anything he needed promptly. Top of my list if/when I need someone to watch him in the future.”
“Andrew and Kaitlyn are amazing! They did a fantastic job watching Frankie all weekend! They were super reliable and kept me updated with frequent messages and adorable pictures, which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. Frankie was clearly well cared for and happy. Pancake was so sweet with Frankie! We’ll absolutely be using them again—highly recommend!!!”

“Laura was so sweet with our dog! She was very responsive, took lots of pictures, and most importantly we felt comfortable leaving our dog with her! Thank you Laura!”
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.

“She is super sweet, very communicative which I really appreciate. My dog was super happy, like at home. We felt so relieved that our dog was in good hands. Thank you so much, we will definitely go back to her every time we have to go out. Thank you so much again :)”

“Marilyn is such a great sitter for my Mason! He has some quirks when I’m out of town and she catered to all of them. He was so happy in the photos she sent.”
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life. I am very patient and loving. I know everyone might say that, but I really do love animals 🥰 I have my dog Kota who’s been my best friend for 10 years now, he’s super sweet and friendly with other animals. I have a huge backyard with a pool where your furry friend can run and swim. I also work from home so they will always have someone there. I work from home so my schedule is pretty flexible. My mornings start off with feeding my animals and going for a morning walk with the dogs. During my lunch hour that’s when I let the dogs outside to run around and swim for an hour, and then again once my work day is done. We also take potty breaks in between. When my friends and family leave their dogs with me I follow the same schedule and make sure the dogs get plenty of exercise, tired dogs are happy dogs :) since I’m home all day me and Kota can provide companionship all day long for your furry kid :) I live in a house with a huge fenced in yard and a pool. Dogs are allowed on the furniture. I’m always around to make sure that they’re not eating things they’re not supposed to.
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 loved cats my whole life and I think they’re are truly the best! I have three kitties - Dodo (8y, Siberian, adopted in 2021), Rexi (2y, shorthair, adopted in 2024) and Vision (1y, shorthair, rescued in 2025). I also take care of the stray cats in my neighborhood and participate in TNR (trap-neuter-release) programs. I often look after my friends cats when they are out of town. People love to say I’m a cat lady, and I take it as a compliment. Vision is blind so I have experience with taking care of cats with disabilities, as well as can give oral medication. I would love to take care of your kitties!
About: I’ve been caring for cats for around 15 years and truly enjoy spending time with them. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to feed, play with, clean litter boxes, and give their cats plenty of love and attention while they’re away. I understand that every cat has a unique personality, so I take the time to make them feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. Whether your cat is playful, shy, or a senior needing extra patience, I’ll treat them like they’re my own and make sure they stick to their normal routine.
“Alivia went above and beyond taking care of our sweet fur baby, Nutmeg - She took tons of pictures for us, cleaned her space up, and played with her with all her favorite toys! Will definitely be looking back at her whenever we need someone to drop in again 🥰 Highly recommend~”
“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.”
“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!”
“Corey did an excellent job taking care of our cats while we were gone for a week. She came at the agreed upon time everyday, followed our instructions perfectly and sent pictures!”
“I don’t even know where to start. I had to go to the hospital unexpectedly and was panicking about my cats and my apartment. Illeana responded right away and stepped in when I really needed someone. She met me at the hospital to get my keys and took such good care of my babies, sending me pictures and updates that gave me so much peace of mind. But what she did beyond that completely shocked me. I came home to a clean apartment. She took out all my trash, cleaned my kitchen, washed dishes, bought bowls for my cats, left cleaning supplies and even flowers on the counter. She showed me so much kindness during one of the hardest weeks I’ve had. I have no family or friends in this country so she’s the only one I had during that time. She is compassionate, trustworthy, and truly goes above and beyond. I will never forget what she did for me and my cats. If you’re thinking about booking her, please do. She’s amazing.”
“Karen looked after our 5 rescue kittens that we found 2 weeks before our vacation. She took photos on each visit which definitely it made it easier for us to relax knowing they were being well looked after while we were away. We will definitely trust her again to look after the two that we are keeping in the future. Thanks so much Karen ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Stacey did an amazing job taking care of my 4 cats! I received pictures and communication every day. By the end of her 5 days of drop ins, all 4 of my cats felt comfortable enough with coming out from hiding and would even take treats from her hand.”

“This family is amazing at what they do. They are quick to respond to your booking request and they have accommodated me on several occasions when my schedule has changed. I couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter while I’m in Florida for the holidays. They send soooo many pictures and videos. It’s wonderful!”
“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 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!
“Chrissy and fam were great. Ellie was quick to warm up and by the second day, she was already pawing at their front door to go inside. Chrissy made sure I was up to date on her day and she was excellent at communication. Highly recommend and definitely will return once the occasion arises.”

“Ellie is always happy going to and coming home from Emma’s, which says everything. She’s comfortable, excited, and clearly trusts her. It gives me so much peace of mind knowing Ellie is in such good hands.”
“My kids (huskies) absolutely loved their day out and can’t wait to play again. Layda is absolutely wonderful. She has such a wonderful tone with my hooligans. I loved the pupdates throughout the day. 100% will be booking with again and again (next time … promise they won’t smell like lake #momfail ?). Thank you!”

“Hunnyhad an amazing day making new friends.. This was the best experience I have ever had being new to the area and I would most definitely recommend Marilyn if you want your baby safe and well taken care of. Hunny will only be going to Marilyn Q.”
“Wendy was super awesome to accept my last minute booking for my baby's evening care. I have never left my Squiggle with a pro-sitter, so I was apprehensive about the experience - but I had to try it out, knowing I would probably need sitting services in the future. Wendy was on time picking up my little guy, and even went above and beyond when she went by the pet store to pick up Squiggy's fave brand of food at my request. Thanks, Wendy. She was responsive, quickly answering when I messaged to check on my baby. She even sent me pictures, and although he looked miserable BC he missed me (we are VERY attached), I was comfortable knowing he was well cared for while with Wendy. I had appointments until later that night and Wendy was very accommodating and dropped him off right when I asked, and she gave me a full update via Rover - right down to how many times Squiggy made poo. That is some serious awesome. And although very excited to see me and be home, Squiggy wasn't traumatized I left him with a stranger. Now that he has met Wendy, I wont hesitate to book her again, should we need her. Squiggy made a new friend, and I am now totally cool with Wendy watch my little guy again.”
“Yekaterina and her family are amazing! They watched my 8 week old puppy whitney for several days and treated her like family. She sent videos and cute pictures throughout the day and the kids played with my pup and were so good to her. My puppy loved it at their house! 🩷💕”

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.

I am available for drop-in visits, overnight stays, hourly day care, as well as around the clock constant care.

I follow your exact instructions and routine to keep your pet happy and stress-free in their own environment!
“Very communicative! My dog was extremely happy and calm when I got home. Trust worthy and very thorough when reporting about how he did since he is older with health issues. Will definitely invite her back.”
About: I have cared for cats since I was about 10 years old and dogs since I was 15. I have volunteered in shelters for over a decade and have worked for a veterinary clinic for the past 4 years.

I currently work part time in the evenings and will be in college in the spring/fall time. I am available during the summer most hours and am happy to make things work as best as possible. I do not have a yard but live in a smaller HOA with areas to take longer walks and many grass spots for potty breaks. In my home the fur baby will have free rein of the upstairs and downstairs as long as I am home or will have the second bedroom to their selves. In the clients home I love a detailed list so I can do whatever the fur kiddo is used to on a daily routine.
“Amazing would be an understatement. Maria’s love for dogs shined through from day one. My pet adored her, probably a little too much! Maria went above and beyond to help sit/walk my dog. She followed my instructions to the tee and helped bring packages in while I was away which was an added bonus to her awesomeness. Will definitely book with her in the future and encourage others to as well.”
“Macy is punctual and wonderful with my dog. I appreciate the effort she puts into each walk and really makes the most out of the time. Highly recommended her.”

“Jada is the only person I trust to watch my pup. I was very nervous to leave him home as a 13 week old puppy; but I felt so much better knowing that Jada was taking care of him. She was very responsive to all of my requests and communicated with me throughout their walk. I could not recommend more!”

About: I've taken care of pets, mostly cats, since I was 8. My mom's side of the family were vet techs and farm kids, so I've grown up knowing how to take care. I've also handled multiple special needs animals, both dogs and cats with skin and diet issues. I understand how animals can be with new people, and take the time and energy to let them trust me. I will be working and going to school in the upcoming spring semester. I like to travel so certain dates may be unavailable, however, I love to take care of animals and will dedicate my time to their care. I follow instructions that the owner would like, and supervise their fur-baby to keep them safe from eating things they shouldn't, staying within their allowed area, and most importantly, being able to be themselves and play or relax. I understand how to give medications, even to those pets that do not like taking them. I want to give the care that I would want my pets to have.
About: I have been caring for dogs and cats for over 27 years. Having grown up with pets and assisted neighbors, friends, and family since childhood, I’ve developed a naturally calming presence that animals truly respond to. I specialize in making pets feel secure and relaxed, which is especially helpful for animals that may get anxious when their owners are away. My care is thorough and heartfelt. I’m experienced with everything from high-energy play and long walks to the "spoiled" side of pet life—plenty of back and belly rubs, baths, and quality companionship. I also have extensive experience with cats, including maintaining strict feeding schedules, refreshing water, and ensuring litter boxes are kept perfectly clean. Whether your pet needs an active buddy or a quiet, gentle soul to keep them company, I treat every animal with the same love and attention I give my own. I am available for morning and afternoon care to ensure your pets get the attention they need throughout the day. I have a very flexible routine that allows me to prioritize drop-in visits and walks when you need them most. Whether it’s an early morning check-in or a mid-day walk to break up their day, I am consistent, punctual, and dedicated to keeping your pet on their preferred schedule. My goal is to be a reliable and calming presence in your pet's life. When I enter your home for a visit, I prioritize safety and security, making sure your pet feels comfortable and your home stays secure. I am highly vigilant during walks and play sessions, ensuring a stress-free experience for your furry family members. I pride myself on following instructions to the letter—from feeding routines to ensuring your house is locked up tight when I leave.
About: I like to update you on your pet/s every day, how they did and how they played. I also like to send pictures to you of your pet/s and videos for you to enjoy! I'm here to help right when you need me. I enjoy caring for all pet family and updating you with photos or calls of our time together. Reach out for more info. Pet care is heavily dependent on owner instructions and my own care experience. My attention is based on scheduled care and includes daily walks, proper meal preparation and admission, medications as necessary and active/brain play and independent settling.
“My pups loved Nicole! And I loved meeting Nicole. She sat with me and listened to my concerns and care instructions for the pups. It was a huge peace of mind knowing that they were excited to see her and she was taking care of them like her own pups:). Will definitely use Nicole again.”
About: I’ve taken care of a few dogs in the past few months, I’ve also help master some of the basics training. I keep the pet entertained and read body language to respect boundaries! I have also volunteered at Jax humane society. My schedule is pretty flexible. I work from home so it’s not much of a hassle for me to make time for your fur baby! I have a long side walk to take long walks. I have a nice sided yard so they can run around and play. There will be other dogs around the area when we go on walks so they will have some type of interaction.

“Absolutely amazing pet sitting experience! My pets were happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for while I was away. Communication was excellent with regular updates and photos, which gave me complete peace of mind. Reliable, professional, and genuinely caring — I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy pet care. I’ll definitely be booking again.”
“Cindy was amazing!! My dog took to her quickly and I was very comfortable leaving my pup with her. She communicated with me whenever she had a question and sent pictures and text to let me know how the day went. Will use her again for dog sitting soon!”
“Highly recommend Charlayda. I was so worried leaving my baby for over a week but she quickly put my helicopter mom mind to rest. As soon as I left she sent me plenty of pics and videos. Infact she made sure she kept updating me for the whole week I was gone. She has a nice yard and spacious house enough for my big baby to move around. She was flexible too and was good on follow ups. Will be using her services again. Thank you so much! ❤️”
“Always a great experience when Emma watches Margie! She always sends pictures and keeps us updated on her stay! Margie always looks so happy and cared for! ❤️”
“Wendy was the best pup sitter we’ve had. She took great care of Willow and sent me pics so I could see her. Willow had a blast in their fenced in yard and got great exercise! I will definitely be bringing Willow there again!”
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.

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.
