“Joanne is great! She stopped in to see my 3 kitties while I was away for a week and my Axl followed her around like tail! He trusted her immediately from day 1. I felt so much better knowing my cats had plenty of food, fresh water, clean litter and were in good hands.”


“Ryane is a truly exceptional dog walker, exemplifying trustworthiness and professionalism. Her genuine affection for animals is evident. My pets, Grandpa and Meemaw, have established a heartwarming rapport with her, and we eagerly anticipate her return, impressed by her remarkable dedication.”


“We love having Vivienne pet sit our pups and kitty. She's very caring and conscientious- spending a good amount of time with our pets. She has gotten to know them and it shows!”


“Marissa was so great with our dog, Tanner while we were away. Her updates were so detailed and she sent several picks during every visit she made! I felt at ease, having used someone outside of family, with our old lil guy. I would definitely use her again!”


“Freya was very knowledgeable about dogs and I felt very comfortable leaving my pup in her care. During the visit she updated me often and even sent me lots of pictures of my Max playing and having fun. That really helped with my missing him. I will be calling Freya again for Max and would highly recommend her to other pet parents. I'm so glad I found Freya!”

“Kacey was absolutely great! This was our first time ever having anyone but family look after our dog Juke in 6 years and were nervous to do it initially but Kacey was on time for every drop in, sent us great photos and comments twice a day and was very easy to communicate with at all times! HIGHLY recommend Kacey for your pets needs, what a great experience!”


“Alannah was a terrific cat sitter - attentive, communicative, and caring to our pets! I appreciated her accommodating a somewhat last minute request and I came home to some happy cats :)”


About: I’ve had dogs my whole life from small to big, Terriars, Rottweilers, German Shepard, etc. I currently have a yellow lab named Rory. I have experience with all age dogs from puppies and elderly dog. I currently work full time 8-4:30 on weekday so I would be willing to come early morning, late afternoons, or nights. I am free anytime on weekends. I have an overly friendly Labrador at home who is very well trained. He goes on a walk at least once a day if not more but absolutely loves his big side yard where he gets to sunbathe! He has his spot on the couch where he naps most of the day away.

About: Having cared for many dogs throughout my college years, I’ve learned the importance of providing attentive, safe, and loving care to ensure your dog feels comforted and secure in your absence. My goal is to make the time apart as stress-free as possible, by maintaining routines, offering companionship, and keeping your furry friend happy until you return. I currently am working 4 days a week with availability Friday evenings and Saturday-Monday all day. I am willing to make multiple stops at your house or stay for a few hours if that makes your furry friend less stressed. I’ll take your dog on engaging walks tailored to their energy level and needs, allowing them to explore and stay active. Playtime is also a priority whether it’s tug-of-war, fetch, or other favorite activities. I’ll make sure your pup gets plenty of fun and mental stimulation. My goal is to ensure they feel content and cared for so they can relax and be comfortable until you return.

About: Hi neighbors! 🐾 My name is Matthew and I’ve been around dogs my entire life and currently have a 100lb Labrador who’s not just my pet—he’s my best buddy. We walk, hike, play, and explore every day, rain or shine! I understand how much your furry friends mean to you, and I’ll treat your dog like one of my own—with love, patience, and plenty of exercise. Whether you need regular walks, help on busy days, or just want your pup to get some extra attention, I’m here to help! Reliable. Experienced. Dog-obsessed. Let’s chat! 🐶💬 I currently work full time from home but I’m very active so I keep my dog active with me. We are up at 5am everyday going for runs/walks. On breaks we always get outside to enjoy the weather and allow him to use the bathroom if needed. After work if I’m not busy I love to take him to the dog park or on another walk around the neighborhood. So I’m available every weekday from 5am-8am and after work from 6pm-9pm I have a big open yard that I have an electric fence for my dog to go out as he needs with or without me. When leaving the yard he gets his harness put on and a leash with poop bags. We walk on the sidewalk at all times. We stop and sit before looking to see if we can cross the road.

“Lori is excellent! She is patient, kind, thoughtful and treated my pup and home as if it were her own. My boy loved his visit and I loved knowing he was in good hands when I was away from home. Highly recommend Lori as your pet sitter!”


About: I've been a dog owner for my entire life! Growing up, my family always had dogs. It was always my responsibility to feed them, take them outside, and make sure they got plenty of exercise! Shortly after graduating college, my husband and I adopted our sweet boy Cody in December of 2020. He was a 1 year old (very well behaved) rescue when we first got him, and he has fit perfectly into our family since day one. We were living in an apartment at the time, so he required frequent walks and trips to the dog park. This helped him become very used to playing with dogs and humans of all sizes! In August of 2021 shortly after moving into our new home in Jacksonville, we decided there was room in our family for one more! We adopted our girl Pepper at 7 weeks old. She is a little ball of energy, but has grown into the sweetest little pup. Her and Cody love to play and run around in the back yard, but they are often content with laying on the couch for a nap or chewing on their favorite toys. Adopting Cody as an adult dog and Pepper as a tiny puppy has helped us learn how to care for and train dogs of all ages. We utilize positive reinforcement with lots of rewards for good behavior to not only train our dogs, but also to maintain a strong and trusting relationship! I work from home full-time, so I will be able to care for your pet 24/7! Pepper requires frequent potty breaks due to her age, so the dogs typically go out every 1-2 hours. If we leave the house on weekends, we never do so for longer than 4-5 hours. If your puppy loves play and attention, we would be a perfect fit for him or her! Both of my dogs love to run and play both inside and outside. We have plenty of toys to share, and a large fenced yard for play. Pepper naps in her crate throughout the day and sleeps in there overnight, but Cody does not have a crate. If your pup is crate trained, I would be more than happy to keep up that routine!

About: I have 2 dogs and have raised animals my entire life. My dogs currently live on my property in upstate NY. My full attention goes into playing and watching the safety of my clients pets. I Worked as a dog handler in NYC at Bath & Biscuits. I love doing this. Currently working part time. I make my schedule and have amazing availability. I can do pretty much anytime of the day that a customer may need. I listen very carefully and make sure that no matter what I provide the correct service that's needed. I make sure the customers pet is comfortable and well taken care of. A pet isn't just a pet but family.

About: I have been caring for dogs since as long as I could remember! As a child my family had 4-6 dogs at all times! Lots of experience with Small & Medium stature pets. My husband & I also have a 10 year old, 45lb, Mini Goldendoodle who is sweet as pie & who we adore! I am able to take your dog to the park & for walks, play with them at my home & take on frequent potty breaks since I am always home watching them. I have lots of toys here for them to play with & treats (if allowed by owner). I can administer the required medicine for your dog as well. Experience in giving pills and giving insulin shots to diabetic pups! I’d love to watch your fur baby! I have two young children ages 5 and 2. Dogs must be able to get along with children. I am a stay at home mom to two young kids and I am available during the day while they are in school or even before and after school drop off! As long as they are well behaved I allow dogs on furniture and they would receive lots of love and attention here! We love animals!

“Kora is an excellent sitter for our dog, Ginny. She is always willing to stay longer to provide comfort to our pup, send photos, and keep me updated. I’ve used Kora each time we’ve gone away for the last 2 years and she is just wonderful. This past trip we took she noticed dishes in our sink and did them. It wasn’t even necessary but she went the extra mile to provide incredible service. We feel so confident leaving our pup home, as we can’t board her due to her anxieties around other animals, and we are able to enjoy our trip. She is always available even last minute and she is dependable. Recommend Kora 100x over!”


About: I’m currently building my clientele list as a dog trainer, so I have experience with all different breeds, temperaments, leash etiquette, and energy levels, I also have experience caring for a senior dog, so medications or cleaning up accidents are no problem either I don’t start training other dogs until 12 or 1 most days, sometimes later, and I am available every morning after 9 for walks or drop ins. I am very familiar with all the dog parks in the area, and my dog is a licensed therapy dog and has spent thousands of hours socializing at parks and with other dogs in general.

About: Throughout my life, I have been blessed to have rescued numerous dogs from various situations. Since I was a child, my family has had over eight dogs that I loved and cared for with my whole heart. At times, we have had four dogs in the house at once so I am capable of handling any type of stress with animals. I truly love dogs so much and want to spread my love to other animals in my community. I currently have two boys named Googz and Bubba who are both rescues. They are my life. I’d love to spread some more love to your pups! I am a gigging musician so my week days are my best times to check in or walk your pets but I can make anything work. I can also occasionally spend the night with your dogs with enough notice. Caring for my dogs is my biggest priority in life. They are the center of my day everyday and I go above and beyond to keep them safe, happy and healthy. I’d be willing to walk your dog, take them to the park, or just hangout on the couch if they are the potato type! No dog is too big for me to handle and I have tons of experience with anxious/fearful dogs.
