I was very satisfied with Amy. She came before the stay so both my cat and I could become acquainted and review house access. She and my cat were immediate friends. She sent me pictures each day and we communicated by text and email. My house looked better when I returned than when I left. She is very kind and caring and I would recommend her without any qualms.

Scarlett is wonderful and takes incredible care of my dog! She is amazing to work with and has been so good to my dog and spent so much time winning him over. She is very communicative and sends lots of pictures. I felt relaxed and comfortable while away knowing that my dog was in such great hands! I highly recommend her and so does my dog!

Mignon and Coco are not easy clients — they expect VIP treatment only. Cheyenne delivered! My pups approved her immediately (which never happens). Thank you for such amazing treatment!!

Josilyn was fantastic! Beau can sometimes be reactive to new people but he took to her right away. She even brought treats for the meet and greet. I had to change my plans last minute due to the hurricane and she made that easy too. She kept me updated and sent me lots of pics which I appreciate. Definitely recommend and will be using her again soon!

About: I like to update you on your pet/s every day, how they did and how they played. I also like to send pictures to you of your pet/s and videos for you to enjoy! I'm here to help right when you need me. I enjoy caring for all pet family and updating you with photos or calls of our time together. Reach out for more info. Pet care is heavily dependent on owner instructions and my own care experience. My attention is based on scheduled care and includes daily walks, proper meal preparation and admission, medications as necessary and active/brain play and independent settling.

Andra was professional, courteous, and loving with my pets. She communicated clearly and effectively and managed a health concern with one of my dogs calmly and with care. She went above and beyond consistently. I would strongly recommend her services and would hire her again in the future without hesitation.

About: I care for 3 dogs, 9 cats, & more in a happy, healthy, and clean home. Animals and their wellbeing is central to my life at home. I'm happy to offer my caring attention to your family as well! I am a local middle school teacher who's off for the summer, so I am free 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Open to long or short term work. Each species has it's own language, each breed it's own dialect, and each animal a unique personality. After years of caring for my own animals, I understand that nothing is more important than looking and listening when they attempt to communicate.

Miss Anne was fantastic! She house sat our Cavalier pack and everything worked out perfectly. Its obvious she gave them tons of attention because I think they are mad that we came home. Thanks for all the photos and update while we were gone. I sure hope we can use Anne again.

Hailey was a pleasure to work with. She was able to squeeze us in at short notice after another sitter was not able to stay with our dogs. She came for a meet and greet and was great with our crew. She was on top of everything and had thoughtful questions. It was a relief to have her while we were gone. She sent updates, pictures, and took care of their special needs even when one had some GI issues while we were gone. I would highly recommend and we will be working with her again in the future!

About: Hi! My name is Ariana. I have worked with animals for over 15 years and have owned animals all my life. My favorite animals are cats, but I love to hang out with dogs as well. I have owned and am knowledgable with Jack Russell Terriers, Beagles, and Labrador Retrievers. I previously worked at a few pet stores as a Pet Care Associate as well as a Veterinary Assistant and a Dog Bather for a few years. From these previous jobs, I have learned many things about different types of pets and their behaviors. I have a full time job outside of Rover that is an 8-5. I also have an Associate’s degree in General studies, a Bachelor’s degree in Social Sciences, and I am pursuing a medical coding degree so that I am able to work from home and have more time pet sitting! In the meantime, I would love to spend more time taking care of animals while continuing my education and Rover allows me to do just that. Can't wait to love and care for all of your fur babies! I try to be as flexible with pet parents as I possibly can when it comes to scheduling any services. I will work with anyone’s schedule to provide the best care! From the time that I wake up to the time that I go to sleep I am taking care of animals. I currently have one cat named Kiki. When I care for animals, I care for them like the loving creatures that they are. Taking care of an animal is like taking care of a dear friend. When I worked at different pet stores I lived and breathed caring for animals and put thought into each and every animals’ care. Now that I have my own pet sitting business, I want to do that very same thing with your fur babies. I would love to care for them as if they are my own and would drop anything and everything to make sure that they had the best care imaginable.

About: Hi, my name is Cierra Robinson. I am a dedicated pet caregiver and cat owner in Jacksonville, Florida. My family and I provide a safe, loving environment for pets while their owners are away. We welcome friendly dogs, cats, birds, rabbits, and other caged pets. Pet parents provide food, bowls, medications, and special care instructions, and we follow those instructions closely. Our home offers indoor and outdoor options, daily attention, playtime, feeding, fresh water, and lots of love. I believe every pet deserves patience, kindness, and quality care, and I treat each animal as if they were my own. Pet care fits naturally into my family's daily routine. I am home most days, and there is usually someone available to help monitor, feed, water, and check on pets throughout the day. We recently moved into a home with a large yard, which allows dogs additional space for exercise and outdoor time. Because we have a family household, pets receive regular interaction and supervision. I work closely with pet parents to follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, exercise routines, and any special care requests. Whether your pet prefers quiet time, playtime, or a structured routine, we do our best to make them feel comfortable and secure while you're away. Your pet's safety is my top priority. I carefully follow all instructions provided by pet parents because I believe every animal has different needs, routines, and preferences. Dogs may stay indoors or outdoors depending on owner preference, weather conditions, and the pet's needs. We have a large yard and two outdoor dog houses with blankets available. Indoor dogs are welcome but are not allowed to roam freely throughout the home. Cats are kept in a safe, controlled environment unless otherwise instructed by their owner. Pet parents must provide food, medications, and any special supplies their pet requires. Before accepting a booking, I like to learn about your pet's personality, habits, fears, and favorite activities so I can provide the best possible care. My goal is to create a safe, clean, and comfortable environment where your pet feels respected and cared for.

Chloe was amazing! She was thorough and went the extra mile for our dog an cats while we were away. She was very attentive being that our animals are much older and with our dog being 15 its harder for her to get around. She was also very communicative giving updates theough the trip. I highly recommend and would use her again in the future.

Rae did a great job house sitting for us. She stayed in our home, sent daily updates and photos, and was always quick to respond. The communication throughout was great and the dogs were clearly happy and comfortable the whole time. It's a relief to come home to a house in good order and dogs that aren't stressed. Would definitely book again.
