“When my AC broke in the middle of the night, I had to find last-minute daycare for my dog. I sent Clayton a message at 4 in the morning for a 730 drop off, and he replied and accepted my request within 5 mins. My dog is almost 13 and has been nervous around other dogs ever since he was attacked a few years ago. I was really hesitant about leaving him somewhere new, but Clayton’s reviews gave me confidence. And when we arrived, my dog walked in calmly and didn’t seem scared at all even with other dogs around. Clayton’s own dogs were so gentle and sweet, and mine quickly made a new best friend. Clayton stayed in touch throughout the day and sent lots of photos. My dog looked relaxed, happy, and like he was truly having fun. You can tell Clayton genuinely cares and treats your pets like his own. I won’t trust anyone else with my dog from now on.”


About: I’ve helped my dogs as a teenager birth a few litters, walked and ran with dogs for 15 years. I’ve taken care of three elderly dogs and helped them be as comfortable as possible before dying at home. Even bathed and trimmed our dogs for years, I enjoy caring for animals. I’m home most of the day every day, I go on long walk/runs in the morning that I can bring animals along. I have a minivan that can haul all sizes of animals. I have a large fenced yard with chickens and my cats are friendly and live inside and outside the home. We are easygoing and just enjoy having animals around. Our garage is also large and great for another space to keep animals. Our neighborhood is quiet and has a great walking area along the road.

About: I have over 15 years of experience with pets. Friends and neighbors regularly trust me with their pets because they know I’m dependable, calm, and truly love animals. I create a safe, low-stress environment where dogs feel comfortable and cared for like family. Whether it’s playtime, snuggles, or sticking to their routine, I’m committed to making sure your pup feels at home while you’re away. As someone who’s retired, I have the time and flexibility to fully dedicate myself to pet care. My daily routine is centered around the dogs I watch whether that means long walks, playtime, or just keeping them company throughout the day. I’m home the majority of the time, so your pup will never be left alone for long. This allows me to follow their schedule closely and give them plenty of love and attention. Your pet’s comfort and safety are my top priorities. I have a secure, fenced yard for outdoor time and play, and my home is calm, clean, and pet-friendly. Dogs are welcome to roam, nap on cozy beds, or play with a variety of toys. I can provide crates if needed, follow any feeding or medication routines, and keep things consistent with what your pup is used to. I only take a small number of pets at a time to ensure plenty of individual attention, snuggles, and supervision throughout the day.

About: I am a mother to not only an awesome boy, but awesome fur babies. I have always loved and taken care of animals since I was a child. My pet sitting has ranged from tiny lizards all the way thru to horses. I love all animals and have helped many friends and family members train their dogs. I currently own a cat, a giant schnauzer, and a cockapoo. I grew up with akitas and watching my Dad train dogs. I would love to meet your pets! My schedule is real active flexible so I would have lots of time to play, walk, and take care of your pet, feel free to ask! I am open to boarding. I have a large fenced in yard and 2 very friendly dogs that love to play. I also have a 12 year old son who is happy to play fetch or run around the yard with your fur baby. I can crate your pet at night if need be, I would want to keep their routine as close to the same as possible. I am currently able to cover most times or days as needed because I have a flexible work from home job. When I am with your animal they will have my full attention 😊 I love all animals! When I am with your pet they will have my phone attention and I will usually send at least three pictures so you can see how they are doing.

“We love KenLynn. She sat for our dog on very short notice while we were visiting from out of town. She responded to our request within half an hour and was very flexible with her schedule. Her two little dogs are very sweet. My dog is wary of strangers but he took to KenLynn and her pups right away. I would not hesitate to ask her to look after our dog again.”

About: I've been taking care of dogs and other animals for as long as I can remember. From senior dogs, to young pups, I have done it all. I love being able to play with the young pups, but also love being able to chill out with the seniors. You'll receive tons of pictures when your animals are with me, I'm always snapping photos when I'm with peoples animals! I've done vaccines, pet wellness classes, dog training classes, worked at multiple boarding facilities & pet stores working with all ages, sizes and breeds I currently am looking to do pet care every other week when I'm not nannying a sweet little 4 year old. Nannying is my only other job so when I'm with your pets that's all I'm focused on. I mostly would like to do pet care within a clients home due to me having 2 pups of my own and one of them doesn't really love other dogs.

About: Ive been around animals since as long as I can remember! I want to help ease pet parents minds when they have to leave their fur babies in someone else’s care! I bring years of hands on experience caring for both dogs and cats in a variety of different household settings, I love making sure they all feel safe, comfortable and are treated like family. You can definitely look forward to tons of pictures of them while they’re in my care! I’m a stay at home mom so I have a lot of free time! Which makes pet care fit perfectly into my daily and weekly routine. Im also willing to stay at your home if that is more convenient for you! I always make sure that your pets environment is clean and that dogs are taken out in a manner that’s best for them and as long as they’d like! I make sure that litter boxes are clean and bellies are fed and happy!

“My dogs received excellent care by Kelly. She went above and beyond our expectations! The care felt like dropping our babies off at a second home. We highly recommend her and will be going to her again in the future.”


“Tonya was an absolute savior! She took great care of my puppers! She sent many pictures throughout the time. I believe she even got some cuddles in!! I am so happy that she was available last minute. Anybody in the Jacksonville area I highly recommend her. We were only in the area for one day, otherwise I would definitely use her again”


About: I have taken care of animals of every kind, from chickens and rabbits to dogs and cats. I own 4 cats and a dog of my own which are all rescues. Neighbors, friends and family have all relied on me to check in, walk, feed, and play with their pets. Let me take care of your fur baby too! I’m currently not working but anticipate this to change. Right now I am pretty flexible with caregiving then it may move to nights and weekends or very early mornings, dinner time and full availability on the weekend I live in an apartment now so the best option for care or pet sitting would be to care for them in their own home, which would provide them a familiar, safe and comfortable environment. If needed I have a fenced in dog park I can take them to run and play in!

“Pam and Frank were so good with Dexter! They sent plenty of pictures which helped me feel so much better about leaving him. They played with him, snuggled him, and wore him out during his visit. We will definitely utilize their services again!”


“This is my first Rover experience. I’m very happy and grateful that I choose Eileen as my sitter for my dog Leo. She provided a fun loving and caring home for my 4 legged son. Leo would go on walks and played with his new 4 legged friend Charlie. She would periodically send me text, photos and video of him. Eileen’s way of communication really help with my anxiety and worry about using this service for the first time. Eileen’s services was fantastic; above and beyond my expectations of a typical dog sitter. I had a family emergency and Eileen offered to care for Leo without having me rush back to pick him up. I would recommend Eileen to anyone looking for a quality sitter with your dog interest in mind. Leo is so happy, he is looking forward to board with Eileen and spend more time hanging out with Charlie.”
