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!

“Absolutely LOVED knowing our fur baby was so well taken care of. Already making plans to continue to have weekly daycare. Great communication!”

“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: 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.

By working from home I am here all day to make sure your dog is fully taken care of. I am available whether it’s multiple bathroom breaks, walks, dietary needs, special medication times, or even just to spend some time playing.

“Lucy seemed very happy at Charlayda's home. She enjoyed playing with the other dogs and greeted Charlayda happily each day. All her basic needs were taken care of. Charlayda is a very pleasant person who worked with me and my ever-changing schedule. She gave Lucy loys of affection and attention. I will use her again.”

“Marilyn provided amazing care and comfort for Leo. I would definitely use her services again. Marilyn shared pictures and videos of Leo through the boarding time. Leo looked happy. Thank you again Marilyn & family!!!”

Sushma U.

“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!”

Bri J.

“For parents of a shy and anxious dog, finding daycare is next to impossible. Marissa, her pups and family have been a blessing to our dog (and us)! We worry not at all with Zoey in Marisa's care. We couldn't be more grateful!”

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.

“We love Amelia! Archie is always so happy and stress free!”

About: I have a soft spot for lap dogs disguised as big dogs. No difference between a puppy and a pit bull to me, I’m always happy to provide a second home! On weekdays I work from 9am-5pm but otherwise I have full time availability to play with your pups. Weekends and holiday stays aren’t an issue! Just send me a message and I’m happy to help! I live in a comfortable and clean apartment on the Southside of Jacksonville. Beach trips, park play or even in door stays. Happy to help :)
