“So communicative and really made sure my babies felt loved while I was gone.Sent pictures with every visit while keeping me informed of their behavior/mood. Wonderful! Will book again ☺️”
“Aaliyah is amazing with our young puppy! She is always on time, communicates very well, and we totally trust her. You can tell she really cares and has a passion for what she does! Would recommend 100%!”
“Olivia was reliable, communicative, and clearly very caring. I really appreciated the updates and photos — it gave me peace of mind knowing my dog was in good hands while I was away. She was attentive to instructions and made sure my dog was well taken care of each visit. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for dependable and kind pet care!”
“Rebekah was wonderful with our dogs -- one puppy and one 4 year old. She was very communicative, sent great photos, and was responsive to questions. I highly recommend her.”
“Ashlyn was so communicative and good with our difficult kitty. I felt so comfortable knowing she was with Ashlyn, I was actually able to relax on my vacation! Literally a lifesaver.”
“Cannot stress enough how reliable and communicative Erin was for my cat. She was in constant contact and kept me assured at all times. Even when there was a malfunction with the app, she made sure to keep a timestamp for her time with my cat. I highly highly recommend you work with Erin to take care of your pet, I know I will for my next travel.”
“Thank you so much for taking care of our boys! We’ve caught up after returning from our cruise and wanted to give you our heartfelt thanks. Your comments and photos during the week were really comforting.”
“I cannot recommend Deborah enough. My husband and I left for 6 days and I was very nervous. I have five inside cats and three neighborhood cats I take care of. Not only do I have a lot of mouths to feed, but one of my fur babies is very special needs with FIV and IBD. I left very detailed notes laying out instructions for multiple types of foods and meds for all that I'm sure would have scared off other sitters. During her time watching them, we even had to make a few adjustments but it was no problem for her. Deborah went above and beyond to make sure everyone was happy, healthy, and taken care of. I was so relieved to see they were in such capable hands! We have another trip coming up in a few months and will definitely be rebooking!”
“This is the 2nd time we’ve hired Alivia to look after my cat Feni and are super grateful. She took my request last minute when I had a family emergency and had to travel the next day. Alivia was always on time and an expert on giving medication that Feni needs. She always leaves pictures which we enjoy looking at knowing our cat is taken care of.”
“Haleigh is awesome. Too bad for us we are moving out of her service area. She did a great job with our feathered flock. Fresh food and water with their morning pistachios! Highly recommend.”
“We love working with Kristin. Our kitty requires medication twice a day. She is an excellent communicator, who reaches out to us with any concerns and we troubleshoot any issues together. Our kitty really enjoys her company. We will definitely work with Kristin again😎”
“Ruby did an awesome job taking care of our Theo while we were away on vacation. She spent time with him morning and night feeding him his meals, giving him some treats and love while we were gone.”
“Margaret was very responsive and took the cutest photos! All instructions were followed and my kitties were very comfortable around her. Definitely will be using her for every visit needed in the future!”
“Michelle was outstanding! She is very responsable, kept us updated and did such a great job pet sitting our dog. We’ll highly recommended her and will for sure ask her to pet sit for us in the future.”
About: I own my own cats & dog. My experience with pet sitting & walking is just my own personal experience with my pets. I have done some sitting for friends when they go out of town. I also live with a reactive, high energy dog - so I am used to this behavior. I always want to have a meeting ahead of time to make sure that I feel comfortable with dog, as well as them feeling comfortable with me. I work a full time job 8-4:30 in the Jacksonville area. I'm open to walk dogs or pop in to take care of cats after work. I also work from home on Mondays & Fridays - so I am available for mid day visits or walks. I will always treat clients pets just like my own, as well as respecting pet parents homes & rules. I want the pet to feel as comfortable as possible and make your time away be the least stressful on them.
Deerwood pet parents share their Rover experiences
Hannah did an amazing job with virtually no notice. A medical appointment out-of-state and an unexpectedly closed kennel had us trapped. Hannah graciously stepped up from a few drop-ins for the cat to multiple visits for the dog AND the cat. She is someone our animals love and we can trust.
Here’s a short Rover review you can post: Leslie was phenomenal with my dog, Newman, while I was away. She provided excellent care, kept me updated, and gave me complete peace of mind throughout my trip. Newman was happy, well cared for, and clearly comfortable in her care. I highly recommend Leslie to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy pet sitter!
Deborah was absolutely fantastic! My cat is a new rescue and is incredibly shy and wary of people but Deborah took exceptional care of her and it was such a delight to hear about how my cat was coming out of her shell more and more! I was nervous about leaving as this is my first time being a cat mom but Deborah answered all of my questions and always communicated brilliantly. It was so lovey to be able to see photos everyday and get updates on how my cat was eating and getting on. I would highly recommend Deborah and will definitely be using her again for any future travel!
Erin was an outstanding pet sitter! Her communication was spectacular, she always sent plenty of photos of my kitties, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. She followed every instruction perfectly, made sure my cats got plenty of playtime and attention, and clearly cared for them as if they were her own. I highly recommend Erin and will absolutely be booking her again for future trips!
Ruth was amazing with our babies 🥹🤍 She was very kind, patient, and communicative throughout the visit. We felt so comfortable knowing our pups were in caring hands 🐶✨ Thank you again for taking such sweet care of them 💕 We truly appreciate it and would absolutely book with her again!
Harrison is highly recommended. I needed three drop-in visits in a single day on short notice. Went off without a hitch. I told him Keelie might take a bit to warm up to him, but she was looking for pets right off and even pulled her signature lava rock for treats maneuver. He was great with her. I also owe him an apology because he picked up after her, even the ones I meant to get before I left. 😀 Thanks, Harrison!
Kelsey took the best care of my cat while I was away! She left thoughtful notes with sweet photos after every visit. She was punctual, responsible, communicated well, and followed all instructions exactly as I had shared them. I will definitely be asking her to care for my fur baby again!
