I drive an hour just so Ellie can stay with her, trust me she’s worth it”

“Would recommend Jesse as a sitter for ANYONE needing one. This family will go out of their way to ensure your beloved four legged family member is happy, healthy, safe, and loved while in their care. Jesse’s attention to detail dispensing medication is stellar!! She treats my 13 year old doodle pup like one of her children. She went above and beyond to ensure I was fully informed and comfortable during the first few visits, which was a total godsend for this fur-mama. She even sends wonderful happy images frequently while my pup is in her care. I’ve NEVER been concerned about my baby while she’s in Jesse’s care. I truly can not say enough wonderful things about Jesse and her family.”
“Andrea and David are outstanding!!!! They truly show their care and love for animals. My Lolo abd Charlie were sooooo happy during their 16 day stay with them!!!!

“Kaitland watched my dog for over a week and the experience couldn't have been better. She had a great environment to board with 2 really friendly dogs and very friendly kids! She was knowledgeable and excellent with new animals and I am 1000% going to use her again as my go to sitter.”
“Megan is the best dog sitter we’ve ever had. We were away for 4 nights and had looked through all the Rover sitters around town, did various meet and greets, and tried to put our trust in the right fit. SO glad we went with Megan because our girls were so well taken care of! She sent updates each day and night, photos and videos, and made us feel so at ease.

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 !

“Lana was responsive and warm from the start, took care of my baby at the last minute for us and it went great. First time using a dog sitter but we will be repeat customers.”
“Wendy was awesome! Her place was perfect for my two dogs. Had a nice fenced back yard, lots of toys and safe neighborhood. She sent daily updates with lots of pics! Which we really liked. Highly recommend. Thank you!”
“Tannia and Chris went above and beyond my expectations when caring for my senior girl. They are very accommodating and their knowledge of animals is impressive. They took alot of time listening to my concerns/instructions and followed them carefully. Thank you guys for loving on and caring for my baby.”
“Cannot say enough good things about Lesly and Josh! They took such special care of my Lily. They were able to work with me and be flexible when I was stuck at work and couldn’t collect her right away. You can tell they truly care about the babies in their care ♥️”
“Took great care of my dog! She has her own large Great Dane who had a lot of fun with mine (about 50 lbs, a pit mix) and a Boston Terrier she was watching for someone else. Huge size differences but they all had fun together!”
“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!”
“Excellent!!! Fozzie's behavior when I picked him up spoke for the great time he had. Fozzie said hi to me in usual happy fashion, yet did not want to leave. Normally, Fozzie is ready to leave wherever he is and doesn't speak to me. He actually ignores me until we get into the car. Her big brown lab was a sweet heart and her cats let Fozzie sniff them, too. Adriana, welcomed me all the way inside her home. The living room was set up for a place for pets to lay & relax; there were multiple cushions on the floor. Her back yard is fenced with ample room for running & playing, with a good size pool for pup swimming. When I came in to pick him up, she didn't rush me out. I bonded with the big guy with lots of rubbing & scratching; Fozzie wasn't his usual jealous self, getting between me and the pet I was petting. This was a very unique experience; it was great. Anytime we are in Jacksonville, FL, I know where Fozzie is going.”
“I really appreciate you guys watching striker it looks like she had a great time and she was well taken care of. Thank you so much for the photos and the great communication. I will definitely be reaching out in the future! I hope you guys have a great rest of your week! Thanks again!”
“Laura was great. I was nervous about leaving Bella and she assured me she would be fine. Bella warmed right up and they had a great first day. I received pictures and videos of how Bella was doing throughout the day.”
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!
“Kaitland is so amazing. She’s responsive, so gentle, and her communications is always on point. We baby our 10-year old frenchie, and Kailand and her daughters are the most amazing and trusted pals we could have had asked for. 10/10 - would definitely book again”
“Savannah takes such great care of our dog he actually cries when he has to leave! He bolts out of the car and loves being with her. She takes wonderful care of him, he's a very happy pup!!”
“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!”
“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!”
About: When it comes to dogs, I’ve done it all! I’ve cared for puppies, seniors, high-energy pups, couch potatoes, and dogs who need a little extra love and support. No matter their age, size, or personality, I treat every dog like they’re part of my own family. Dogs have always been a huge part of my life. Growing up in a family of dog lovers, I learned how to care for, train, play with, and understand dogs from an early age. As I got older, I became the go-to dog sitter for friends and family. Before long, coworkers began trusting me with their pets too, thanks to my experience and genuine love for animals. Whether your pup loves long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply sticking to their normal routine, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away I work remote and can be very flexible not only with the time you need me but with the location. I’m available 7 days a week. I have a fenced yard and 1 senior dog named Junior. Junior has been around a plethora of other dogs in his 15 years and is very friendly. Don’t his age discourage you, he still loves to run around and play. I can easy crate your dog if needed. I have a fenced yard and 1 senior dog named Junior.

“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 grew up surrounded by animals on my Granny’s farm, so caring for pets has been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. In my own home, we had three dogs and four cats, and animals were never just pets, they were family. My mom was a veterinary technician for 15 years, and she regularly brought home injured or recovering animals that needed rehabilitation. Through that experience, I learned how to safely handle pets in all kinds of situations and environments. She passed down extensive hands-on knowledge to me, including how to recognize warning signs, respond calmly in emergencies, and administer medications. I’ve even assisted with IV fluids for a dog when needed. Because of this background, I’m comfortable caring for pets who may need extra patience, medical attention, or routine based care. I bring more experience than the average sitter and take your pet’s safety, comfort, and while still giving them plenty of love, attention, and reassurance I have an open and flexible schedule, so I’m able to give pets plenty of time, attention, and consistency throughout the day. I’m available for early mornings, mid-day visits, evenings, and weekends. I provide care exclusively in my clients’ homes so pets can stay in the environment where they feel safest and most comfortable. I follow your pet’s established routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications, and any special care instructions. I’m attentive to behavior changes, health needs, and comfort levels, especially for pets who may be anxious, senior, or require medical care. I keep the home clean and secure, ensure doors and gates are properly locked, and respect household rules at all times. I prioritize communication and send regular updates and photos so you can feel confident knowing your pet is well cared for while you’re away
“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.”

“Erika was great and so reliable during our vacation. John loved his walks with her, and we really appreciated the updates she sent while he was out on his walks. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands.”
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.
“Steven was an absolute joy to work with today and absolutely LOVED on our dogs Scout and Seven. Very professional, reminded me i needed poop bags (just moved into a new neighborhood), and knew just how to handle our dogs untrained behavior. Poor Seven got pooped about 15 min in and Steven even just carried him home. We have fallen in love and DEFINITELY will be using Steven again!”
About: I’ve feed and taken care of stray cats since I was about 9 years old and I currently have 2 kitties of my own that I love as if I’ve birthed them! But it has always been a passion for me to take care of animals of all kind! I’ve been also taking care of my sister’s dog for the past few months she is a pit lab mix and I’ve taken her for walks, I feed her, taken her out for the bathroom, I give her baths,buy her treats and toys,I play with her and give her all the love and affection she can have! I currently work full-time so from 7:30am -4:30pm Monday through Friday. So time that I have available would be weekends all day Saturday and Sunday! I will always make sure your fur baby’s need are met. In my care they will be given the best care they can get with love and admiration!
“Stephanie is amazing! During our meet and greet she made me feel so comfortable leaving my babies in her care. Love all her experience she has with animals and my pups loved her! She even got to meet my cat the day she came to walk my pups. Great experience and loved all the pictures! Thank you Stephanie, will be booking again for sure!!!!”
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.
About: Hi! Im Danielle,! I grew up around a variety of animals- horses, bunnies, parrots dogs and cats! My dream is to open up a rescue/shelter because no animal deserves to go without a loving home. My boyfriend and I have 5 cats -3 boys and two girls as well as our pit mix which we rescued who are our heart and soul and they truly saved us. We both grew up around animals and the love we have for all walks of life is what drives me to give your pets the best care possible ! What sets me apart from others is the genuine love and kindness I have for animals because each and everyone has a back story and they all deserved to be loved the same. Our pets aren’t just friends, they are family and that’s why I take pride in helping other owners like myself find someone who they trust to help them one belly rub at a time! I am available during the week before 7 and after 5:30pm and on weekends ! I love giving the chance to provide owners with comfort and stress free care because your fur babies mean just as much to me as they do to you! When caring for your pets in your home, I treat your space how I would expect mine to be treated and that’s with respect. By ensuring that I keep same routine that your fur baby is used to will make sure that they feel comfortable because meeting someone new can be nerve wracking. I make sure pets get plenty of love, attention, and are loved as if they were my own — and I keep you updated with messages and plenty of photos so you know your pet is happy and safe. I stick to your pet’s usual schedule for walks, feedings, playtime, and potty breaks to keep things familiar and stress-free. I follow all instructions provided and always double-check things like food portions, medication (if needed), and security (locked doors, gates, etc. Clean-up and tidiness are a priority too; I leave your space just as I found it, or better.
“Izel is excellent! He is such an easy going person, great to talk to, and great with our dogs! My youngest pup has high anxiety, but he sat down on the ground with her and she started to warm up to him. He is accommodating and understanding, definitely recommend him!”
About: I’ve been looking after pets my whole life, dogs, cats, chickens, goats, geese, and even a peacock one time! Right now I have two lil kitties of my own that are the light of my life. I am available at anytime to play with your pups and kitties! I can visit at least two- three times a day to look after your babies! I will do my best to send a picture or fun video every visit for you and your families peace of mind. Please give list of instructions for me if you have specific preferences on how to care for them.
About: Dogs have been a part of my life since I got my very first puppy at six years old. From that moment on, I wasn’t just “around” dogs, I grew up learning how to understand them, love them, and communicate with them. What truly makes me different from other sitters is that I care for dogs emotionally just as much as I do physically. Your dog won’t just be fed, walked, or watched, they will be loved, seen, and heard. To me, dogs aren’t “just animals.” They are family members with feelings, personalities, and needs. I make it my priority to make every dog feel safe, appreciated, and understood, giving them the attention, affection, and companionship they deserve. My goal is for your pup to not only be cared for, but to have an experience they’ll remember, one filled with joy, comfort, and connection. Over the years, I’ve trained all my own dogs and even worked with professional trainers so I could learn the right techniques and bring them home. I’ve gained hands-on experience with: • Potty training • Door manners & boundaries • Feeding routines & food discipline • Socializing with other dogs I’m fully committed to the well-being of every dog I look after, and I genuinely look forward to meeting new pups and adding more furry friends to my life. When your dog is with me, they’re treated like my own , with patience, structure, safety, and endless love. I’m currently home from college for the entire summer and pet care fits perfectly into my schedule because I have plenty of free time and no other jobs or major commitments while I’m here. I spend most of my time at home with my family, so I’m available throughout the day to give your dog the attention, love, and care they need. Any small activities I have during the day usually last only 1–2 hours, and I’m very flexible and great with communication. I make sure to plan around my bookings so your pup’s routine always comes first. Your dog will have someone who is present, reliable, and fully available to care for them. When I care for a pet, I don’t see them as “just a dog.” I see them as a member of the family, just like I would treat a younger sibling. That mindset guides everything I do. In the morning, feeding them is my first priority, just as I’d make sure any family member eats. I also make sure they get outside for bathroom breaks right away, because their comfort always comes first. I genuinely enjoy being outside, no matter the weather, and I love taking dogs on walks. Fresh air and movement are a gift, so I make sure each pup gets regular walks, bathroom breaks, and plenty of time outdoors. When a dog signals that they need to go out, whether they walk to the door, ring a bell, or give me a look, I don’t make them wait. I respond right away. I keep each dog’s routine consistent, especially feeding times and potty schedules, because structure helps them feel safe. When we’re out walking, I sometimes take different routes so they can experience new sights and smells. I never walk dogs off-leash outside of fenced areas for safety reasons, both for the dog and others around us. At home, I like to include dogs in what I’m doing throughout the day. I don’t believe in locking them away unless absolutely necessary. If I’m cleaning, folding clothes, or moving around the house, I let them follow me so they feel involved, loved, and part of my world. I also have a secure patio play space where dogs can run around freely while staying safe. My goal is always to make every dog feel cared for, seen, safe, and appreciated, like they are truly part of the family while they’re with me.
“My first impression of Carrie was very positive- she frequently communicated, was personable and punctual. Carrie immediately bonded with my dog, and took extra time with her to make sure she was well exercised. I highly recommend her services and will definitely be a repeat customer.”

“Amelia was such a pleasure to work with! From the meet n greet and throughout her stay our pup was so happy! Amelia communicated with us as well as sent pictures throughout her stay! We can’t say enough about Amelia and the care she provided. We will definitely book with her again in the future!”
“As always, AMAZING. I will plan my vacations around her. If she can’t watch Ellie.. I ain’t going. Best dog sitter there is. When we turned into her neighborhood Ellie already knew where she was and got so excited. She loves going over there. I highly recommend and will scream to the rooftops … chose Charlayda. I drive an hour just so Ellie can stay with her, trust me she’s worth it”
“GREAT sitters, would recommend! I dropped my senior pup off for a week at their house and she had a great stay. Got daily updates and photos to keep me in the loop during my vacation. thank you so much!”
“Andrea and David are outstanding!!!! They truly show their care and love for animals. My Lolo abd Charlie were sooooo happy during their 16 day stay with them!!!! Excellent communication and accomodating to our senior doggie. When we picked them up, they had gifted them cute bandanas and treats!!! Definitely will use them again whenever we’re out of town!!!!”
“Kaitland watched my dog for over a week and the experience couldn't have been better. She had a great environment to board with 2 really friendly dogs and very friendly kids! She was knowledgeable and excellent with new animals and I am 1000% going to use her again as my go to sitter.”
“Megan is the best dog sitter we’ve ever had. We were away for 4 nights and had looked through all the Rover sitters around town, did various meet and greets, and tried to put our trust in the right fit. SO glad we went with Megan because our girls were so well taken care of! She sent updates each day and night, photos and videos, and made us feel so at ease. She truly is a gem and will def be booking with her again for future needs!”
“Terrific experience with boarding Obi! Viji was so kind to send several photos and videos of Obi during his stay there! Very good communication and we felt Obi was very well taken care of. Highly recommend her! Will definitely use her again!!!”
“Rosangely is amazing. She communicated through the entire stay, kept me updated when anything was going on, and overall just a very calm, sweet person. Your pets will enjoy their time with her.”
“Edward took excellent care of our dog, providing us with near daily updates, including pictures and videos. He was flexible with our uncertain travel circumstances and early pick ups/drop offs. I couldn't ask for anything more!”
“This was the best experience I’ve ever had. I went out of town for a couple of days . And she stay in contact with me the entire time sent pictures and responded back fast. I really appreciate how caring she is when I comes to pets. She is literally the best. Book with her assp !”
