“Crystal is very accomodating when caring for our senior dog. She helps her navigate the stairs, ensures she gets all her medications and genuinely cares for her. You can be assured your pet is well taken care of while with Crystal.”

“Johana responded very quickly to my booking which I really appreciated and communicated easily with me! She gave me peace of mind while I was out of town that my kitty was taken care of!”

“Divina does such an amazing job with our pets. She has done dog walking/sitting, cat drop-ins, and full home stays with plant care as well. Our animals love her, and she is always so responsive, goes above and beyond every time, and is our obvious choice whenever we need this service. Highly recommend!”

Kevin D.

“We had a great experience with Mandy! She stayed in our home for five nights to care for our pack—two dogs and two cats—and when we got home, everyone was happy, healthy, and well cared for. She sent frequent updates and tons of adorable photos, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. Our home was in good shape when we returned, and we appreciated her thoughtfulness and communication throughout the stay. We’d work with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a kind, reliable sitter!”

“Ligia was fantastic watching our pets and house while we were out of town! She is very nice, all our animals loved her and she is very communicative!”

“Jamie was quick to fill in on a last minute request. She did a same day meet n greet and the dogs were immediately comfortable with her. She sent photos and updates the entire time she was housesitting with our 2 dogs and gave us peace of mind that they were in great hands while we traveled. Will be reaching out to her again when we travel.”

About: Pet sitting has always been a joyous hobby of mine, and I would love to take care of your animal. I have had pets my whole life, and have pet sat for many years. I’m primarily a student, and also work as a research assistant with one of my professors. My schedule is relatively open this semester though, and I should be able to adequately take care of any of your pets with ample attention given. I have a fenced in backyard, and a cat tower for any pets that come and stay in our home. I’m also happy to take any animals on walks.

“Shana was fantastic! She took great care of our dogs and house while keeping us updated the whole time. Our pups were happy when we got back. Highly recommend Shana – 5 stars across the board!”

About: Hi there! I have over 3 years of hands-on experience working at Pet Paradise and Dogtopia, where I cared for dogs of all sizes, temperaments, and needs. On top of that, I’ve been a lifelong pet owner—dogs, cats, hamsters, and even snakes! I know how important it is to trust someone with your pets, and I treat every animal like they’re my own. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or snuggles, your pets will always feel safe and loved with me. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine! I start and end my days with my own two cats, Anais and Cleo, so I’m already in the rhythm of feedings, walks, and playtime. I’m available mornings, evenings, and weekends for drop-ins, walks, or sitting, and I can adjust my schedule to fit your pet’s needs. When caring for pets in your home, I respect both your space and your pet’s routine. I’ll follow your instructions closely, from feeding schedules to preferred walking routes. I take extra care with things like locking up, cleaning up after pets, and making sure they’re comfortable in their own environment. You can trust that your home and pets will be safe and well cared for.

“Pam is just the greatest. She took awesome care of our home (9 acres, pool, etc.) and pups (2 large malamutes) while we were out of the country for two weeks. Normal household issues occurred and she promptly notified us and handled them. She coordinated with contractors. She went the extra mile with our pups and with us, leaving the house very clean and with a few romantic gifts from my boyfriend for my birthday. We could not recommend her more highly and were thrilled to have such a trustworthy and detail-oriented person in charge.”

“Sandra and her daughter were great with my dog! They kept me updated and made sure he got lots of love and playtime. I felt at ease the entire time. Would definitely book again!”

“Vannia was awesome. I felt so comfortable knowing she was caring for my little girl, Piper. She is accommodating and communicates regularly. I will most definitely use her again.”

About: Hi! I’ve grown up with animals my whole life and have always had a passion for them. I’m so passionate, in fact, that I’m in my gap year before I start veterinary school next year! I have fostered over 20 dogs, so I am familiar and comfortable with a variety of breeds, sizes, and ages. I am currently the mom to a 1 year old dog and a senior dog, so I have first hand experience on the different needs and requirements for a happy and healthy dog! Additionally, I have personal experience in beginner puppy training, senior care, and handling reactive dogs. I am available 7 days a week at all hours. I just moved to Jacksonville a few weeks ago so am hoping Rover can help me meet some furry friends and create forever bonds! As a dog mom, I know first hand the anxiety that comes with having someone watch your pets, so I make sure to provide plenty of pictures, videos, and updates. I am very active and love to be outside so I can take your dog on as many (or as few) walks/runs as they want! Or if your dog isn’t active, we can chill in the AC! Due to my flexible schedule, I can provide both dog walking services and house sitting services (as well as overnight visits if needed)! My schedule allows for me to make your dogs comfort and safety my #1 priority! Due to having a reactive dog myself, I do not allow your animals in my own home for your dog’s safety and comfort! I am very tidy and organized, so I will treat your home with respect, and leave it cleaner than I found it!

About: I have two rescue dogs. Their personalities are opposite as night and day. One is very energetic and the other is a couch potato! Whether you have a high energy pup or calm one, your dog will find a friend here. My energetic pup knows when to stop playing if it’s not reciprocated in the first 15 minutes. I have a giant playpen and crate for dogs who need their alone time or is required by the parents. Those doors are always open. No need to bring yours. I separate all dogs while eating and let them out when they’re done. We mostly stay in the living room watching tv or outside. I have grown up with labs, chihuahuas and pit bulls. I have been dog/cat sitting for years for family and friends. I am fairly new to Rover. My fur family enjoys hiking and going to the park. We walk the neighborhood for 2 hrs a day. I am comfortable giving medicine. My dogs are my children and I take care of other animals like their mine. I worked as a manager for large department stores so I am very dependable and responsible. Thank you for your interest in me! I am currently working part time. My job is flexible. However, if you’ve booked me less than 48 hrs, we will have to agree on a good time for a drop off. I am able to be present with my animals majority of the day. If you request to board, make sure you bring everything your dog needs for a successful stay. Appropriate size collars/harness, training pads, etc. If your dog is an escape artist or doesn’t walk on a leash well, disclose that to me. So I can prepare myself before each walk and not be caught off guard. I also provide a quiet relaxing space for dogs. If your dog barks excessively and not the casual barking here and there, I would not be able to babysit them. Feel free to reach out to me at any time. I will do the same if there’s a question I’m not sure of.

“Sarah was awesome with my cat! Super friendly, reliable, clean and asking if any additional help needed. I loved getting little updates while I was away—it gave me total peace of mind. Definitely would have her pet sit again!”

About: I grew up on a small farm where my family bred, and raised deer dogs. I have been caring for animals my whole life, and dogs are my favorite. I am very respectful, and responsible. I have reliable transportation, and can travel in the greater Jax area. I cannot currently have a dog of my own so this is a great way for me to connect with animals while also helping you out. Additionally, my best friend is a professional dog trainer. I have learned alot from her over the years. So if your dog is trained, or training I am well versed in commands, and how to maintain their progress. I’m happy to hop on a phone call prior to care as I want you to know your animal is in good hands! I am single, child free, and animal free. I am a business owner, and artist. Therefore, I am self employed and my schedule is quite flexible. I am happy to provide service during weekdays, evenings, overnight, or weekends. I will be caring for your pets in your home, and will adhere to all instructions meticulously. I understand that your pet is part of your family, and I will always treat them with care and respect. I do my best to create a bond with your pet so that they feel comfortable, and to ensure they feel safe. I am extremely reliable, accountable, and responsible.
