About: New to Jacksonville. I’ve owned plenty of pets growing up, experienced with dogs large and small. Very patient with animals in general. I own a French Bulldog, his name is Billy. He is very energetic, and gets along with everyone. I own a food business and bartend part-time, so my schedule is flexible. My mom will also be home around the clock, for extra supervision. There’s plenty to do around my neighborhood. Billy will also be there to keep them company whenever they want, and will respect when they just want to chill.

“Shaná, we are blessed having you care for our fur children! When we return home, they’re always so happy!

We look forward to booking your services again 💗💚🙂”

About: ✨A Pet Care Experience Rooted in Love & Trust✨ When you leave your dog with me, they’re not just watched—they’re deeply cared for, prayed over, and loved like family. I believe every animal is a creation of God, deserving of gentleness, safety, and joy. Whether it’s a peaceful nap, a playful walk, or a quiet cuddle, your pup will be surrounded by calm, loving presence. I specialize in caring for senior dogs and those with medical needs—this isn’t just a service; it’s a calling. As a dog mom to a senior pup myself, I understand the importance of patience, comfort, and consistent care. I’m confident in giving medications, supporting mobility, and reading subtle changes in behavior. I don’t just meet physical needs—I nurture the emotional and spiritual well-being of every dog in my care. I play worship music during rest time, keep a peaceful environment, and speak blessings over each furry guest. My goal is simple: that your dog would feel safe, loved, and completely at peace while you’re away. You can rest knowing that your best friend is being cared for with intention, compassion, and prayer. This is more than pet care-it's a ministry of love and peace. I offer flexible and dependable pet sitting services with a fully open schedule to accommodate your furry family members’ needs. Without current job constraints, I’m able to provide personalized care, medication administration, and attentive companionship for dogs and cats of all ages. Whether it’s regular visits, overnight stays, or last-minute requests, I’m committed to ensuring your pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. My adaptable availability means I can tailor my support around your schedule and your pets’ routines, delivering peace of mind with professionalism and genuine care. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and emotional well-being are my top priorities. I create a peaceful, grounded environment where animals feel secure and cared for, whether I’m stepping into their space or welcoming them into mine. With years of hands-on experience, especially with senior pets and those needing medication, I bring a calm, attentive presence that animals quickly respond to. You can trust that I’ll treat your home and your pets with the same respect, gentleness, and responsibility I give my own. My goal is to bring peace of mind—knowing your pets are not just safe, but genuinely cared for.

“Very pleased with the 2 weeks that she watched our 70 pound 9 month old puppy. Our return flights were 2 days late and she was very flexible and accommodated our needs. Several people in our neighborhood said they frequently saw her taking our dog for a walk and all seemed going well. She frequently sent updates and pictures.”


“Bailey is an absolute gem of a dog sitter! From the moment he met my pup, his energy put us both at ease. He’s reliable, communicative, and clearly adores animals. I came home to a happy, well-cared-for dog and felt totally at peace knowing he was in such good hands. Highly recommend Bailey to anyone looking for a trustworthy and kind sitter”


“Joanna was so wonderful petting sitting at our house while we were gone! She replied back to all messages promptly and friendly, sent me updates throughout her stay, left my house clean and sent me photos of our pets! She is extremely nice and I highly recommend her! :)”


“10/10 definitely recommend Ms.Sandra! I was told last minute about a deployment I had coming up and was terrified I wouldn’t find anyone to watch my pup last minute. I explained my situation to Ms. Sandra and she was more than happy to take me on as a client! Her and her daughter had came over to meet Bella two days before I left and Bella was comfortable with them. I knew my dog was being well taken care of and didn’t bother to stress about it while I was away. Ms. Sandra sent me photos every day of Bella just to make sure I was okay! I couldn’t thank her enough! Very sweet, respectful and trustworthy! I will definitely be using her again in the future to watch my pup! Again thank you guys for being amazing!”



“Becca demonstrated incredible maturity, responsibility, and compassion while caring for my dog. Her dog Boomer was also extremely friendly and patient. I felt so safe leaving my dog with her, and she regularly sent me photos and updates on how my dog was doing. Thank you.”


“Marie is AMAZING! My husband and I just moved to the area and we’ve always used boarding facilities for our pets but it’s usually such an anxious experience for us AND our pets. So when I found Rover, I was very hopeful but a littler nervous. Marie put all my worries to rest! Her personality is very warm and inviting and I felt right away that she would do great with my fur babies. Marie came over to my house and pet sit my four pets (three large dogs and a cat, so they can be a lot to handle) and I felt so at peace the whole time I was away. Marie gave me frequent updates with lots of photos, asked great questions, and gave my dogs and cat tones of attention and love. I couldn’t recommend Marie more! Definitely will be rebooking!”


About: I have been in love with animals since I could remember. I adore the love and loyalty they provide us. I honor every pet and I recognize the important role they have in your family. I have dedicated my life to pets and have all the time in the world for their needs to be met. The world is a better place because of our fur babies. Fenced in large yard. Friendly dogs of my own name Kan, stormi and nixie. You can trust that I will keep my eye on your fur baby.

Arlington Hills pet parents share their Rover experiences
Marilyn was amazing! We recently completed a 2.5 week trip out of the country and she went above and beyond for our 2 dogs and three cats. Dealing with our big dogs anxiety and keeping him calm and happy. And all the quirks that come with older dogs and making sure they eat well. Marilyn is truly the best and we are so grateful for her care!

Mark is amazing! He watched my dog and 2 cats for 10 days in our home and they were in amazing hands. He catered to my dogs health needs and treated them all as his own. He kept my house tidied and I came home from vacation to a freshly cleaned home. I am so happy to have found Mark and plan to rebook him in the future!

Kira was wonderful and took amazing care of my pets and home while I was away for the week. I received regular updates and photos, so I knew I didn’t need to worry at all! I came home to a clean house, happy animals, and am truly grateful for Kira’s reliability and kindness. Would absolutely book again!

We were out of the country for two weeks and very anxious about leaving our pets, especially our old dog who is having a lot of mobility and incontinence issues. We knew from previous trips (and other old dogs) that Layda would take excellent care and be able to handle any curve balls that Aster might throw her way. Layda cares for our pets like her own and we felt much more confident on this trip knowing that she was here with them.

This is the first time I've hired someone to care for my special needs Great Dane (genetically deaf & blind). Christy provides hands down, exceptional care. Both for him, and my own separation anxiety around leaving him. I can't say enough postive things. From asking clarifying questions, to providing updates, to being open and flexible, to just being a wonderful human (you know and so will your animal). 10 stars. Thank you, and bless you for helping me.
