“Nicole was polite, friendly, and professional. She inquired about the services we were looking for since it was our first time using Rover. We told here what we needed and she confirmed that she would be able to those tasks and even ones we had not considered. She had an immediate rapport with our pets and it showed when she provided reports about her visits. We give Nicole our highest recommendation.”

About: My dogs and I have been through AKC certified obedience training I'm experienced in walking multiple dogs at a time Can housesit and care for dogs with special needs Providing positive reinforcement and tasty bribes is my main method of gaining trust with a new dog friend. I'm open to meeting and discussing all forms of service ahead of time I have a flexible part time job that is generally from 9 - 4 Monday through Friday. These times are flexible so if you have a question about a particular day feel free to ask My 2 dogs and I walk almost everyday around our neighborhood just to get some adventure and smell some new fire hydrants. My house has a wood 6' privacy fence around the backyard and I have time to them out 5 or 6 times a day for bathroom breaks or to just run around an play. My dogs started being crate trained as a puppy but as they have grown older and more trusty we use them less and less. I use a lot of positive reinforcement and treat training to bond and build rapport. I feel comfortable around dogs of all shapes and sizes and would prefer to take care of new dogs in their home environment first. My dogs: I have a 6 year old 60lb female Portuguese water dog -- She's a big napper, cuddler and loves cats. My 3 year old, 30lb, male terrier mix is the feisty play pal that keeps everyone entertained.

About: I have lived with pets my whole life, ever since I was a kid I have had at times even 5/6 pets between cats and dogs of all sizes and ages. I have lots of experience with dogs that come from shelters but also with training puppies that come from breeders. I have a cat in my house right now but he has lived with dogs before so he won’t have any issues making new friends. I am a responsible and reliable person, always updating the owners of their pet’s wellbeing and making sure that they have the best time while staying with me. I am currently not employed and looking for a job from home to be able to continue taking care of other’s pets. I am very active so I will always make sure your pets get the right amount of exercise based on their needs. I have a fenced yard but I am also very active so I go on several walks every day. I will take your pet out daily but also give them the opportunity to play in the yard. I have a small pool for pets when it get too hot as well.

“My cats seem to be well taken care of while I was away, thank you for loving on them!”

About: Hi there! I have been a professional pet sitter since 2015 and have grown up with animals of all kinds since I was a young kid. I graduated from UNF with my Bachelors of Science in Coastal Enviornmental Science and love all types of animals. I am home most of the day (I work part-time remotely) so your dogs will have frequent potty breaks, sweet talk, cuddles, and playtime in and outside. I will always spoil your babies just like my very own. Currently, I offer housesitting in Fernandina Beach, Yulee, and Jacksonville. I will also travel to other locations if needed. I am only offering dog sitting at my home in Jacksonville, in the Murray Hill neighborhood. I have experience with a variety of dog breeds, big or small I love them all. I have vast experience with disabled and older dogs, including administering medication. Animals are a passion of mine and I find great joy in taking care of dogs. I send picture updates daily so you can have peace of mind that your dog is being well taken care of. I would love to watch over your four-legged family! I am home most of the day (I work part-time remotely) so your dogs will have frequent potty breaks, sweet talk, cuddles, and playtime in and outside. I will always spoil your babies just like my very own. I have a fully fenced in yard and always supervise any time spent outside. I always keep an eye on where the pets are at and make sure everyone is getting along. I give special attention during feeding time to ensure no aggression is displayed.

“Emma did a really great job looking after Florence and Reddington - this turned out to be a longer trip than planned at the last minute (almost 3 weeks) and she extended her visits with no hesitation, spending extra time with them to make sure they were well looked after and had the company needed while we were away so long. Her patience with Florence certainly paid off, I’m glad she finally warmed to her and got her head scrunches 🥰 Thank you Emma!”

About: I’ve been taking care of animals my entire life and have two dogs that are 10 and 4 years old. I have a lot of experience caring for dogs and cats. I understand the importance of having someone who not only takes care of your pets but treats them like family. I’m a full time college student home for the summer. I currently walk dogs every day. I also have extensive experience in overnight dog sitting. I enjoy spending time with pets including walking dogs and playing with cats. My first priority is to ensure that they’re well cared for.

About: Hi I’m Makenna, a full-time pet caregiver. I have dedicated over 15 years to caring for both dogs and cats ensuring they feel safe and loved while their owners are away. Having grown up with dogs my entire life, I have a natural intuition for animal behavior and take pride in being highly observant of their needs. I am a proud owner of two 100 pound great Pyrenees and several cats myself so I am very used to “big dog” energy and the unique dynamics of a multi pet household. Whether your pet is a high energy puppy, a curious kitten or a gentle senior requiring extra patience, I am fully comfortable with all life stages. From tiny Chihuahua’s to giant breeds, I understand the different handling and Care requirements for various sizes. I am excited to meet you and your fur family! I am full time doggy caregiver. I’m very flexible with my schedule as well as yours. I am here to help. Im a local here on the island of Fernandina beach Fl I have great fenced in backyard. Walking distance from the beach and downtown as well as great walking right here in my neighborhood. Your pets safety and security is most important to me.

About: Hi, I’m Madison and I’m 24 years old. I’ve had pets my entire life, so I’m used to potty breaks, dog walking, feisty kitties, playing with pets, cleaning up after them, keeping them entertained, and everything else to do with the everyday tasks of caring for and dealing with pets. I’m a hard worker, have a very flexible schedule, and love all types of animals, especially dogs and cats. I’m currently taking a veterinary assistant course at college, and aim to start a career working with animals. There have been multiple times I’ve found dogs roaming in my neighborhood and helped return them to their owner. I’ve even helped a stray kitten find a good home! I’m very passionate about animals and will show yours all the love, attention, and care it deserves. Me and my boyfriend have one dog that we take care of as if he was our own child, so my daily pet care routine is pretty generous. Of course our dog is fed twice a day, walked daily, and given a lot of love. And aside from my boyfriend, I have two other roommates who also have dogs, so there’s always some puppy playtime happening If I were to care for another dog in my home, I’d definitely be paying attention to the dog’s behavior to see how comfortable he is in the new environment, and with meeting the dogs in my house. If he were not comfortable, or if the dogs were to not get along, I’d of course separate them. I’d most likely hang out with the dog in our spare bedroom to make him more comfortable. On the other hand, if I were to care for a dog in his home, I’d try to follow his every day routine as best as I could to make him as comfortable and happy as possible

“So accommodating and thorough. Made sure I knew my kitties were getting great care. Goes above abs beyond for you. So grateful we got Katherine to care for our kitties.”

“Carrie was great! She watched my little guy Xander for a week and did drop-ins in my house. Carrie played with him and cuddled him and I was very happy with her service. She sent lots of cute pics! I will definitely use Carrie again in the future!”

Heather P.

“Summer was very timely in her visits and communicated with me as needed. I was comforted to know that Elvis was being cared for while I was away from my home for the day. I will use her services again.”

Deborah V.

“Deidra took amazing care of our little girl!! She worked with us to meet our pup’s normal schedule, and was sure to keep us thoroughly updated with check in reports for each visit! She also kept our pup active and socialized with her own wonderful pup, Teddy. We will look to have Deidra care for our pup again next trip and would highly recommend the same if you want total piece of mind and care for your special family member as well!”
