About: I have a cat (Ricky) and a dog (Bella) of my own. I have been treating them like royalty for their whole lives and have been taking care of animals for as long as I can remember. I’m extremely knowledgeable about pets and am able to help you with anything from basic needs to medicine administration! I am a full time college student that has full night time and some daytime availability! I won’t be able to do full-time care, but would more than love to do overnights and check-ins or walks! I’m very attentive and can be flexible to all and any pets’ schedule. I understand that each pet is different and may need personalized care. You can trust me with anything you may need help with!

“Eva was so great! We feel so lucky to have a vet watching our babies and she was completely unfazed by are psychotic hyper dogs 😂 She has a great calming presence and our dogs just loved her. We felt so safe and comfortable knowing she was taking care of our babies. Can’t recommend enough!”

About: Hi there! My name is Jamaura, I’m 21 years old, and I’m currently a student at the University of Florida majoring in Animal Sciences on the pre-veterinary track. I’m deeply passionate about animal welfare and plan on becoming a wildlife veterinarian in the future! Over the past seven years, I’ve cared for dogs belonging to family, friends, and neighbors, as well as my own pets throughout childhood. In every situation, I prioritize each pet’s comfort, routine, and happiness, treating every furry friend like they’re my own. I make sure dogs get the exercise, playtime, and affection they need, while maintaining clean feeding areas, following meal schedules, and creating a calm, structured environment. I’m also comfortable administering medications and managing more complex feeding routines when needed. I love bonding with dogs and my goal is always to provide a positive, stress-free experience that leaves both pets and owners feeling at ease. I’m available seven days a week, any time of the day, and I’m committed to being there when you need me most. Whether it’s a last-minute walk, daily check-ins, or extended care, I’m here to provide consistent, loving, and flexible care for your pets whenever you need it! When I care for your pet in your home, whether it’s for a walk or a drop-in visit, I do everything possible to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in their familiar surroundings. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, needs, and routine, so I take the time to learn what makes your pet feel most content. From following detailed care instructions to noticing subtle behavior cues, I prioritize your pet’s well-being above all else. Whether your pet is shy and needs quiet companionship or full of energy and ready to play, I adapt my care to match their personality and comfort level. Most importantly, your pet’s welfare, safety, and comfort are always my top priorities. I’m here to give them not just supervision, but genuine care and attention, so you can feel confident and worry-free while you’re away.

I can easily crate your dog if needed. I have no little ones in the home, so my attention is strictly on the needs of our fur babies! I even have a guest bedroom, in case your fur baby is use to the good life of sleeping in a bed! Comfort is key to me!! I have the months of June and July wide open due to my summer schedule as a teacher. I plan on gardening, spending time in the hammock and watch out dogs roam!! I would love for your fur pups to join in on the summer hangs! ☀️ If you’re traveling, we have nothing but time to devote to you and your fur babies. **Please note that your booking may be modified if drop off is before 7am and pickup is after 9 pm.

Bedding is changed for each visit and their comfort is key! We will provide food in the absence you forget. We have plenty of treats, bowls for serving, and love to give ❤️
