“Karen did a wonderful job walking our dogs. We have one very high energy dog that can be difficult to walk until he releases energy and she handled him with such ease! Both of my dogs came back from each walk completely exhausted, it was perfect and exactly what we wanted! Karen was so lovely and we look forward to having her walk our dogs again!”


“Shera was absolutely fantastic! She communicated with us, sent us photos and updates each day, which really put our minds at ease. Our dog Oliver was well taken care of. We highly recommend Shera and would definitely book her again!”


“Jada is FANTASTIC! I'm working night shifts as a medical student on an away rotation and was so nervous about leaving my dog overnight alone. Jada offered to come do a meet and greet the day before. She arrived promptly and my dog loved her. She came for an hour every night to walk him and hang out with him. One night I forgot to feed him and she gave him his dinner. She took lots of pictures and videos which I LOVE. Can't say enough wonderful things about her!”


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.

“Cassie is awesome! My dog loves her, and she clearly enjoys being around animals. She is great at communicating and updating us. We will definitely be using her for a long time!”


“Jenna does such an incredible job with my pup butts. I am so grateful for Jenna’s patience when I made a mistake to the schedule. 15/10 would recommend as my pups love her and she always does a phenomenal job communicating with me.”


About: Having multiple pets has been a part of my entire life, from the pets I had with my family to my own now. My first job ever was a professional care-taker at a boarding shelter for dogs. Now I walk and care for dogs part-time. My primary availability is during the week, with some weekend availability with enough advance. I work from home and am very flexible to accommodate changing schedules. I am comfortable crating your dog, taking them for walks, playing with them, providing basic care or anything else that you would like me to do for them.

About: My partner and I have been walking dogs and caring for cats since we were in middle school! We spent the entirety of 2023 staying in housesits and caring for lots of cats and dogs! (& always with 5 star reviews!) We are looking to make new furry friends. My partner and I both work remotely. This means we can be available to take your dog on a lunch break walk, work from home in your living room with your cat on our lap, etc.! Lots of availability with our schedule. Can do anything needed! We can cuddle your pets, walk your pets, crate your pets, etc.! We have done it all & are available to provide any level of care.

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.

About: This girl. I'm that person at your party that spends the whole night playing with your dog instead of socializing. And while it doesn't win me friends, it makes me a great dog sitter for your pup. I've got two little guys of my own, Chachi and Mac. I love rescues (and really all dogs tbh) and both my husband and I work from home so we spend a lot of time together. I believe that as much as dogs need food, water, and bathroom breaks, they need attention and love, as well. So, that means I'll be making sure your pets meet their maslow's hierarchy of dog needs. And if those needs include a lot of pets, playing, and occasional treats--I'm your man. I work from home and make my own hours so am available to work around your schedule. Please provide as much advance notice as possible and account for proximity when booking. While I have a fenced backyard, it isn't very large. I don't recommend large excitable dogs that need a lot of outdoor space to stay here. Additionally, as stated before, I have two small dogs. All dogs staying my house MUST BE FRIENDLY.

“Amazing would be an understatement. Maria’s love for dogs shined through from day one. My pet adored her, probably a little too much! Maria went above and beyond to help sit/walk my dog. She followed my instructions to the tee and helped bring packages in while I was away which was an added bonus to her awesomeness. Will definitely book with her in the future and encourage others to as well.”

About: I've taken care of numerous animals over the years & done everything from deep cleaning them in the bath to wrapping a kitty burrito to clip their claws! In recent years I've taken care of my senior dog, walking her up to 10 times a day and cleaning up after her when her stomach is acting up. It's hard work but worth it when you have a companion for life!

About: I've been surrounded by dogs my entire life since I was 8 years old. My first ever dog was a shihtzu named Dexter. I've cared for my cousin's 2 dogs (Rottweiler and Great dane.

Im dependable and can follow any specific instructions (if any). I have a very open schedule so if you or your pet need me in a moments notice I can be there! Im currently a part time student at Jacksonville University with a lot of time on my hands and one class im working on during this summer break. So my availability is very open. I can adapt to each animal's specific needs when taking care of animals in clients' homes.
