I Appreciate Ashleigh Sooooo much! I was so nervous on leaving my boys with someone they haven’t met. But she was no less than amazing. Sent me plenty pictures daily, made sure I was in the loop & even swept where the dogs were ❤️. I appreciate her so much & 10/10 will be the person I use when I go out of town for now on. Now I can really take trips now!

About: I love animals. I was a former foster pet parent. We ended up adopting. We have adopted three dogs and they are our families world. Can’t imagine life without them. I’m able to help with your pet after my work hours and before my 8 hour shifts at the hospital and on the weekends as needed. Would love to pet sit or walk your animals. I love pets and helping when needed. I usually work 8 hour shifts at the hospital.

Mackenzie did a fantastic job taking care of my cats! She was always on time and sent me adorable pictures with every visit. One of my cats is very shy and scrambles under the bed when visitors show up, but she grew to trust Mackenzie over a few days. Aside from her ability to take care of pets, she's also a wonderful human being. When my flights got messed up and I had to return a day later than I anticipated, she was very understanding and willing to check on the cats that morning. Highly recommend booking Mackenzie!

Miranda is awesome! My German shepherd puppy is vary wary of new people, and he was best friends with her after the first day. She's made sure he's well exercised, fed, and happy. She is very good about communicating and sending pictures/videos of my dog whenever she visits so I can see how he's doing. She's got a lot of experience so she's been able to give me some pointers/tips that have really helped out.

About: I have had many years of animal care! I have been volunteering in animal shelters since I was 16 and have previously walked dogs in Chicago for a few months! Most recently, I was on a volunteer team that helped train rescued puppy litters. I am currently a dental student that does not have the time for a full time job, but will always make time for some furry friends! I live in a gated apartment community with grassy areas within. There are no other animals in my apartment. My area is very walkable and I would love to be able to do so with your pet!

About: I have extensive experience caring for both dogs and cats through personal, volunteer, and pet sitting experience. I currently have a 10-month-old puppy that I’ve raised and trained since puppyhood, giving me hands-on experience with young dogs, routines, and daily care. Throughout high school and college, I regularly volunteered at local animal shelters, helping care for animals of all sizes and temperaments. I also walked dogs during college and frequently pet sit for friends and family, including feeding, walking, playtime, and overnight care. I’m very comfortable around animals and genuinely enjoy making sure pets feel safe, cared for, and loved while their owners are away. I have a flexible schedule around my part-time job and love making time to care for pets! I’m usually available in the mornings and afternoons before 3 for walks, drop-ins, and pet sitting. I’m very dependable, easy to communicate with, and always happy to work with pet owners to find a schedule that works best for everyone. I understand how important it is to trust someone with both your pets and your home, and I always treat each home with the same respect and care I would expect for my own. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are my top priorities, and I make sure to follow all instructions carefully to keep them happy and secure. I’m dependable, attentive, and committed to creating a calm, safe environment while you’re away, while also keeping your home clean, respected, and well cared for.

About: I have had all size dogs since I was 12. I love that they love you unconditionally. I enjoy walking my dogs, and I can't help but laugh when they get the zoomies. I always try to be patient when they are unsure or need to take medicine. I work full time, but I am available in the evenings and weekends. I am available to come to your house to take of your animals needs. Your animal can also come my house for the weekend if needed. Please schedule in advance. I prefer to do a meet and greet, since I also have two rambunctious kids. I have two small sociable dogs that are both fixed. They stay in the kennel when I am at work, but when my husband has a break he will let them out. I have a large backyard that that is fenced in, and my neighborhood has sidewalks to walk dogs. My household is also high energy, but also love snuggle time and belly rubs.

Having Becky drop in was a game changer for our kitties. They were much happier when we returned home after having dedicated attention and playtime every day. She also took great care of our chickens! We will definitely be rebooting if we decide to go out of town again.

Ali came over to feed our indoor/outdoor cats in the mornings and change the water and litter for a week. We have a cat clan, and she gave us updates and photos letting us know who was there and anything else that we might want to know. She brought in some boxes that were delivered while we were gone and cleaned up a gift that one of the 1-y-o boys (likely) had brought into the house. Thank you so much for all of your help!!!!

About: **I have base access.** I have years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I currently have five dogs, ranging from 1 to 9 years old and from small to large breeds, and all five have successfully completed the Canine Good Citizen course. I also have a cat who is almost 10 years old, and my previous cat lived to be an amazing 24 years old. Caring for my pets has taught me the importance of patience, consistency, exercise, training, and, most importantly, giving each animal the love and individual attention they deserve. I understand that every pet has their own unique personality, routine, and needs, and I would treat your pets with the same care and attention I give my own. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine. I’m a stay-at-home mom and currently only work two days a week, so I have a lot of flexibility in my schedule. This allows me to be available for pet visits, walks, feeding, playtime, and other care throughout the day. I’m able to work around each pet’s individual routine and give them the time and attention they need while their owners are away. I provide pet care in your home, where your pets are already comfortable and familiar with their surroundings. I believe staying in their own home can make your time away much less stressful for them because their routines, food, toys, sleeping areas, and everything they’re used to are already in place. I’ll follow your instructions and your pets’ normal routines as closely as possible, while giving them plenty of attention, playtime, care, and affection. My goal is to make your time away as easy and comfortable as possible for both you and your pets.

About: I owned dogs for 11 years now. I always had 3-4 dogs at a time, ranging from husky, German shepherd, Maltese, poodle and French bulldog. I am working part-time and trying to transition out of my current job and doing pet sitting full time, so I will dedicate all my time to pet care. I am an animal lover. Dogs cats reptiles, always treated them with respect and will give lots of love! I will end up being one of their new favorite humans.

About: I’ve had had the privilege of caring for many creatures across my life (dogs, cats, praying mantises, spiders…) and would love to help you care for yours! I have two wonderful dogs: Ozzie and Lily. They keep me on a strict schedule for activity time (walks, playing, etc) and feeding. Trust me, they’ve trained me well! I also grew up with two cocker spaniels, Droopy and Floppy, and a German shepherd-beagle mix, Scooby. Every dog has so much character and it’s an absolute joy to learn their unique personalities! My work schedule tends to vary weekly and I can start as early as 9am and leave as late as 9pm, but I am generally available everyday to play with your critters! We can discuss times before booking. I am also a college student with class on Tuesday and Thursday mornings. I care for pets based on their individual needs with insight from their owners. For example, I can trust my dog Lily to behave herself home alone, but with Ozzie, I know I have to provide him a spacious kennel to prevent him from getting anxious and chewing up the carpet. Regardless, I provide them lots of love, playtime, and outside time whether it be a walk or a potty trip. I have a fenced backyard personally and my dogs (and even my cat with supervision) love to spend time out there.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Jacksonville on Rover is $11.1 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of September 2026, there are 239 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Jacksonville. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.

House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Jacksonville. On Rover:

  • 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 97% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.

Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
