About: I have taken care of all types of dogs for about 2 years. I have a dog of my own she is a handful but my whole world 🥹. I would love to be of help to anyone I can. I work part time at a grocery store. I mainly work nights so I get off anywhere between 9 and 11pm. So when trying to schedule check ins I would recommend scheduling the first check in later in the morning so there is less time in between each check in. I have a fenced in yard it’s fairly large enough room to run and play if needed I feel confident in my abilities to safely get your dog in a crate
“Allana exceeded expectations and helped put my mind at ease while my dog was home alone. She's an excellent communicator with prompt responses. Will definitely utilize her again in the future if a situation arises.”
About: Hey there, I'm Joyce and I've been taking care of my neighbors and friends animals for most of my life (25+ years). I am partial to dogs, but guess who can change a litter box too? Me! I also love cats and other critters. I also use Rover when I'm out of town, so I know what it's like. I hold high standards for myself and the care of your pet(s). Your pet will be treated like my own (I have 3), with respect and a lot of love! I'm looking for part-time work as I want to go back to school this fall. I love animals , the outdoors, and a good walk! (I have limited availability on the weekends, please inquire and we may be able to make it work!) Overnight stays: I will try to spend as much time at your house as you want me to, but I may have a few errands to run during the day and make sure my own dogs stretch their legs too. In your home, I'm a well-mannered guest. I don't have to stay in your home if you don't need me to. Your animals will be treated with respect.
About: Experienced & Trustworthy. Walks, Feeding, Playtime & Lots of Love. Medication Administration (if needed). Your pet will be cared for like family while you’re away. Pet care fits well into my schedule because I am able to plan visits around consistent morning, afternoon, and evening routines. I’m flexible and can accommodate feeding times, walks, and check-ins as needed. I’m also available for weekends and can adjust for special requests. This allows me to provide reliable, consistent care while meeting each pet’s routine. Follow instructions and keep the pet’s normal routine for feeding, walks, and rest. Provide daily exercise, playtime, fresh water, and clean-up to maintain a healthy environment. Monitor the behavior and health, and give medication as directed if needed. Keep the home safe and clean, communicate updates to humans and provide attentive, loving care.
About: I grew up with dogs as a kid. As an adult I’ve owned 2 dogs for a total of 4 years. The first I had for 3 years and had gotten him from a friend due to PCS. My current is a GSD that I got as an 8 week puppy who is currently over a year old that I trained myself. I currently work about 6-8 hours a day but have a short commute to work so if needed, I am able to check in on pets on a more frequent basis. I take my dog outdoors pretty frequently since he’s high energy whether it be on walks or for play in the yard. At least once a week, I take him somewhere public to work on his socialization and training with distractions. We train pretty frequently as well and have to say he does pretty well so if you’d like, I can assist in anything you’re trying to train. Disclaimer though, I’m not a professional trainer, only dogs I’ve trained are the ones I’ve owned. I live in a house with a pretty large fenced yard. I’m a big advocate for dogs getting activity, whether that’s physical like a walk or play outside or if it’s any kind of mental stimulation. My dog is crate trained and stays in his crate while I am not at home. I would prefer the same of your pet to ensure safety of your fur baby while I am away. Once I’m home, I allow my dog to free roam the house and will do the same for yours. My dog has been around several dogs and cats and is very friendly, social and playful, however, if needed, I have the ability to separate animals that don’t get along to ensure their safety. If there’s any questions on care I provide, please feel free to reach out! I’m pretty flexible and will do my best provide the care your pet is used to/needs.
“We needed someone to walk our GSD at lunchtime for us. My daughter suggested using the Rover app. We were so lucky to have found Chloe! Hey and my fur baby hit it right off. Chloe is absolutely wonderful! Very prompt and great communication ! We appreciate all she does for us and our Jameson, we asked her to dog sit as well. She loves our fur baby and she loves her too! Thank you Chloe!!!”
“She’s the best and she will be my first choice whenever I need a sitter. Very helpful and involved. My stay was longer than expected and she was kind enough to let me schedule a walk with her.”
About: I’ve had experience with many types of animals since I was little. I have experience taking care of dogs and cats of all ages. I also have experience taking care of rodents. I’m a stay at home mom as of right now to a little boy, so I will have all the time in the world to take care of your pets. I would have to work it around his nap schedule but that won’t be a problem at all. While I don’t have a fenced in yard, I can take any animal in my care for walks if it’s needed. I also have a loving cat named Ali to keep any animal that’s with us company.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is a lifetime of genuine, hands-on experience. I’ve been caring for both cats and dogs since I was five years old, giving me an instinctive understanding of their needs, personalities, and comfort cues. Over the years, I’ve also gained experience administering medications safely and confidently, whether it’s pills, drops, or special routines. With me, your pets aren’t just looked after—they’re understood, cared for, and treated like family. I am retired military with 4 of my own cats. I am available Monday through Friday, after 6pm and Saturday-Sunday 8am to 4pm. Adding more animals to my daily routine brings joy to my day. I can care for you fur babies in your home by helping them keep to their normal daily routine. I can offer plenty of attention, love, pets, cuddles and whatever else to treat them like the family they are
About: I have grown up with all sizes, breeds and personalities of both dogs, and cats! I have even helped with 3 different litters when my Nana use to breed her Standard Poodles! Every single one of these furry friends deserve nothing less than the upmost respect we can give as their care takers. I am in the beauty industry, so my schedule varies week to week. I have overall control of my schedule which helps me to be flexible! I am very comfortable with any breed and size of pets! I can walk out on a leash, watch in a fenced in area, throw a ball for fetch, and even participate in a tug of war battle! I am very transparent as to what i’m comfortable with and what is in the best interest of your furry friends care!

“April is awesome. She was easy to communicate with and asked a lot of valid questions in order to provide our dogs with the best care. The dogs enjoyed her company and she gave us peace of mind while we were away.”
About: I also work in a boarding and doggy daycare facility. I am trained in medicine administration. I work daily around dogs of all shapes, sizes, and medical needs. I do have certifications in dog behavior. I work around 6 hours a day with my current facility and am always upfront and honest about my availability. I normally find out a week out what the following schedule for me will be like, if I make a commitment I always make sure to stick to it. I follow instructions set by owners depending on how strict you would like to be. I can normally get a dogs vibe and learn who I have to be slow and gentle with and which dog is super friendly and ready to play right away! I follow set times for feedings, vitamins, meds, etc.
About: I have been around dogs and many other animals all my life. I have worked at a kennel caring for 16 rooms worth of dogs at a time and have helped friends and family care for their animals while they were out of town. I have a very flexible schedule all week long as I am a stay at home mom. There is nothing set on my scheduled that usually cannot be worked around. I am very observant when it comes to animals emotions and temperament. I always make sure things are as safe as possible when in my care and will do what is best for them.
About: Dogs are my life and passion, I have been working with dogs my whole life, no matter the breed, age, special needs, size we do it all! I am a certified Master Dog Trainer, I recently graduated from Highland Canine. I also graduated from AK9I as a K9 handler, I do this full time with my wife, Mara, who is also experienced.

About: I have taken care of pets, my own and others, since I was very young. Family and friends rely on me regularly to care for their fur babies. Being retired allows me to be available most days. Taking care of pets keeps me active and gives the pets and their humans a feeling of security. At a client's home I walk dogs, feed them, give belly rubs and administer meds if necessary. For cats, the same minus the walks. I send photos and updates to clients.

The average cost for Dog Walking in Jacksonville on Rover is $16.05 per walk (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Jacksonville. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Jacksonville.

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.
Every walker 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 .
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Jacksonville. On Rover:
- 97% of walkers can help with special care needs
- 97% 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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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 walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers 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.
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 walker.
