Dog Walking in Fort George Island, Jacksonville, FL

“Katie did an amazing job with my pups. It was the first time leaving them with someone else taking care of them. She made me feel so comfortable about it and gave me updates and photos to let me know they were ok. On top of that the pups loved her. She did a meet and greet with them before hand and they picked her basically out of others I met. They wouldn’t leave her side when they first met her. She is such a sweet heart and I will definitely being using her again in the future. Thank you again Katie. You’re the best!”

About: I have years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior dogs needing extra love and attention. I’m especially skilled at establishing routines, managing medications, and understanding different pet temperaments. I always approach every pet with patience and care. What sets me apart is my attentiveness and reliability. I treat every pet as if they were my own, keeping their well-being and happiness as my top priority. I also keep pet parents updated with regular photos and notes, so you feel confident and connected while you’re away. I have a Yorkshire Terrier named Rosie. She and I are best buddies. From the moment I brought her home, she has been my unofficial child. I completely understand how hard it is to trust someone else with your best friend so anything I can do to make you feel comfortable, I would. I feel at ease with cats as well! I wake up and immediately let my dog Rosie out of her kennel to do her morning zoomies and good mornings throughout the house. While she’s checking for intruders (and crumbs), I give my cat Lolli some pets. Following this, I check my chameleon Wilbur’s enclosure to make sure his temperature and humidity levels are just right. Rosie and I go outside for our morning walk around the neighborhood, where she says hello to every object in our vicinity. I feed all of my pets and make sure they have plenty of water. I take Rosie to potty every hour or so, ensure lolli’s litter is clean, and check Wilber throughout the day. Rosie and I finish up the day with an evening walk before bedtime. I have a friendly doggy to keep your baby company. Rosie and I go outside numerous times a day and I’ll take yours out as often as needed.

About: Hi there! I’ve had dogs in my life for over 20 years and started pet sitting professionally about a year ago. I’ve cared for both dogs and cats. I’m reliable, easy to reach, and happy to keep you updated with photos and check-ins. Can’t wait to meet your furry friend! Pet care fits easily into my day, I work part time, just three days a week, so I have plenty of time and flexibility to care for pets. I’m used to planning around feedings, walks, and check-ins. I’ll always make sure your pet feels loved, cared for, and well looked after! Whether I’m caring for pets at my place or yours, their safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I do my best to follow their usual routines and make sure they feel secure and well cared for. I’m always mindful of special instructions, and I ensure that meals, walks, playtime, and any other needs are handled just the way they’re used to. If they’re staying with me, they’ll enjoy plenty of love, attention, and a cozy space to relax in.

About: Currently, I have two energetic Australian Shepherds. My experience with them and other animals has given me strong understanding of needs and behaviors, especially when it comes to managing high-energy breeds. I am very comfortable and confident in providing attentive care. I’m available for boarding on the weekends, and before 8:30 am after 5 pm on the weekdays. I am flexible on my availability on Thursday-Fridays since I WFH these days. I have a fenced backyard and 2 friendly Australian Shepherds ready to make new friends! Our home is spacious and we can separate dogs, if needed to provide a calm environment

“Sherri is such a delight to have as our dog sitter. She cares for our pets as if they were her own. I’m never worried about leaving them while I’m out of town, and she makes my time away much more relaxing as I never have a concern. She’s attentive and keeps me updated on each visit! Highly recommend!”

“Martha does such a great job with our dog Cody. She is kind, caring and always going above and beyond to be sure he is taken care of. I don’t know what we would do without her!”

Tiffany B.

“Mare was great, she was at my house a few minutes early so she could meet the dogs and get to know them before her first walk with them. I ask her to take the park and play tug of war and fetch. The dogs came home nice and tired. Definitely using her again.”

Kyle Ryan M.

“This young lady is the best help you can get when it comes to dogs. She went above and beyond with helping us. Very kind compassionate and helping. She made sure the pups were clean, and cared for. Thank you for everything you did for us. If there were more than 5 stars we would give them to you!”

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 10. I grew up a military brat, have worked with all different kinds of dogs. Even fostering around 10+ dogs and taking care of them. I have had 2 dogs in my life personally. Grew up in a household where we always had a pet and how to take care of animals. I am very adaptable and hardworking. I don’t judge animals based off breed. I like to be outside and would be available to take your pet out happily. I do work a job so some days I am available to do same day bookings. I had a small senior westiepoo who has a crate that sits under the table. She was trained by me. Now, I have welcomed a new little small dog in my life over the last year he is crate trained my me as well. Along with all the other basics. If you have a crate trained dog I understand how that works or a fenced in yard to where they can’t escape from . I also have a cuddle dog so if your pet is a cuddly that’s no problem with me! Recently, with my new dog I’ve been learning how dogs deal with separation anxiety as he is a needy little guy. If your furbaby is anxious or attachment driven I feel pretty confident I’m having the patience to help them.

“Sulien did such an amazing job. She was able to accept my booking last minute when another Rover canceled. She truly saved the day and made me and my dog feel comfortable.”

About: I have taken care of family pets, pets of colleagues and friends, with different sizes, temperaments, handicaps, and needs. I have had to dispense medication, stayed overnight, done frequent checks, and am here to fulfill your companion's needs. Just got laid off and have an open schedule. I do participate in martial arts for a couple hrs a few days a week but it is flexible and at my discretion I have a dog park membership, a big neighborhood behind my complex to walk them in, grassy area at my apartment for a quick potty break, love to take beach walks, and there are other parks and options nearby

About: Do you have a dog that understands your words so now you have to spell them out when talking? Haha if so I totally understand, having been a dog owner or had a family dog since I was 13 I am all aware of a lifestyle with a dog. I am familiar and comfortable with potty training, potty pickup/clean up and positive reinforcement. I can feed whatever diet no matter how many steps it involves for your pup. I enjoy play time and walks if that is part of their regular routine. I am not breed specific as I believe all dogs are born good dogs and I love meeting new breeds. I am also familiar with caring for females in heat and diaper care. I will use any commands you wish so all training doesn't skip a beat in my presence. I also Excell at relating to and caring for CATS! They will stay so entertained with me and will recieve all the pets, lap time and behind the ear scratches that they will allow me to give. I am extremely comfortable caring for cats and making sure they are well tended. I am a stay at home mom with 2 cats and a dog, the humans are in school now during the day so I am free most days. At my current home I cannot offer inhome care but I am free to visit your pets. I am very comfortable with you having in home cameras and I can/will offer video chats anytime I am in your home.

“I had a great experience having Portia walk my dog. She was on time, professional and very helpful. Plus my dog loved her. She sent cute photos along the way. Will defiantly be working with her again!”

“I can’t say enough positive things about Denise! I reached out for a last minute booking and she responded within minutes and offered to come and meet my senior dog that night. She instantly connected with my dog, which is difficult given his old age and associated medical issues including blindness and partial hearing. Denise arrived on time both days, took multiple pictures and provided detailed updates from her time with our dog. I would highly recommend Denise to anyone looking for someone to care for their furry babies, particularly if there are certain concerns with old age or dog aggression which is my situation.”

About: Pets have been family to me. Choosing me to care for your pet would be an honor and like having family there. I have had pets since I was a kid and have dealt with dogs large and small. I'm currently working part time with flexible scheduling. I can be available any day of the week and would like to increase my own exercising with dog walking. A win-win for me to work with pets and help me too. I have two large senior dogs that stay indoors. I have a fenced back yard. My pets are family and are spoiled rotten by my family. I prefer to do drop in visits, dog walk, and house sit.

About: Hi, I’m Kelly – a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for cats and dogs of all ages and personalities. I’m the proud dog mom of two senior pups—a sweet basset hound and a lively black and tan coonhound—and cat mom to two beloved senior cats, an American Shorthair and a Maine Coon. Caring for aging pets has given me a deep understanding of their unique needs, from administering medication to providing extra comfort and patience. In addition to caring for my own pets, I’ve been the go-to pet sitter for friends and family for years. I treat every pet like they’re my own, making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, mealtime routines, or just being a calming companion, you can count on me to be dependable, communicative, and fully dedicated to your pet’s well-being. Aside from caring for my own dogs and cats, I am fully available to help make sure your pets get the dedicated care that they need. I am available to care for your pets in your home where they are most comfortable. I do not have a fenced in yard so I currently do not provide in-home boarding.

“Jessica did a great job with my wild dog, Zulu! I was very happy to come home and find a tired pup waiting for me. Thanks Jess!”

About: I am a recent college graduate from Florida Institute of Technology and I majored in marine biology. I am good with time management, always have a positive attitude, and love dogs. I have always grown up with dogs so I understand them very well. I’ve had different breed of dogs from small Maltese’s, large Australian Shepard’s, and active golden retrievers. I played collegiate soccer and I am a very active person, getting my exercise with dogs seems like the right way to do it. I have plenty of experience watching dogs for rover. I can’t wait to build relationships and meet some amazing dogs and people. I will love your fur babies as if they were my own! Your dog(s) will be in good hands.

About: My first “baby” was when I was 22 yrs old. I got myself a pit bull mix of Graig’s list, and he was just the best. He wasn’t great with other dogs, but loved other people. I managed to get him all the way until he was 13 yrs old, despite many many health issues. I then got an English bulldog and now I have a 5 year old French bulldog, so I know all about dogs with “special needs”, especially in this hot Florida summers. No overheating on my watch!! I work full time from home 730am to 4pm Monday thru Friday, so I’m always home and if you live close by, I don’t mind last minute plans. I don’t mind doing in my home care or overnight boarding, but I have a dog and a toddler, so it would be situation dependent.
