“I had a great experience with this sitter! She took wonderful care of my dog during her three-night stay and gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. I especially appreciated the frequent updates and photos she sent throughout the stay. It was reassuring to see my dog happy, comfortable, and well cared for. Communication was excellent, and it was clear that she genuinely cared about my dog's well-being. I wouldn't hesitate to book with her again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive, and caring dog sitter.”
“Kyndra was great, she kept in touch and sent photos daily. She even made Stitch his own spot in her office so he could keep her company while she worked. She also wasn’t afraid to offer feedback and suggestions for future sittings/sitters. Thanks Kyndra 🩷”
“Kristina really enjoyed having Winston as a guest. She sent updates and pics, and he clearly was fully relaxed and happy in her care. I will use her again, and again, and again!!”
“Alicia was fantastic. She was very welcoming and took great care of Mochi and Waffles. They had fun playing with her dog, Zuko too. Will definitely ask her to take care of Mochi and Waffles in the future.”
“I can’t even begin to express how grateful we are to have found Dorthy to watch our sweet fur baby, Pippy! They took fantastic care of her with updates and photos the entire time. Our sweet girl took a doggy vacation while we were away with nature walks, fun with the other dogs, play time, long naps, and brushing her out. She was one happy girl all weekend long! Thank you so much for loving our girl and playing with her. It brought us a lot of comfort knowing she was having a blast and safe. I am excited for our next trip and more puppy vacations for Pip! This was better than leaving her with our family!”
“Garrett and Monica were loving hosts to Jake - our energetic Doodle. We received plenty of updates and photos which helped reassured us while away. I recommend them.”
“Avram took the best care of our dog. This is the first time we’ve left him with someone outside of his immediate “circle” and Avram was a calm, reliable source of care for both our dog and us. We received daily updates and pictures as well as prompt communication regarding drop off and pickup. We would definitely have Avram care for our dog again!”
About: Hi, I’m Rachael! Owner of 3 dogs with my spouse and we love to take them camping, hiking, and out for adventures. I’ve had pets since I was a child and have taken care of animals since I was a teenager, pet sitting for family and friends when they vacationed. I worked as a vet technician for 6 years so I have experience administering medications orally and by injection. Whether it’s pet sitting, dog walking, or stopping-in to check on your pet to let them out to potty or to feed them, I’d be happy to take care of your furry loved ones. I’m new to Rover and taking care of pets is what I love and enjoy. I’m currently a stay-at-home dog mom, giving me plenty of time and availability to take care of your pet too. I’m available for pet sitting, dog walks, and drop-ins. Having 3 dogs at home, I understand how important it is to make sure they feel loved and safe. I will send you daily pictures and let you know how they are doing.
About: I've been an animal lover my whole life and have always had at least one dog or cat in our home, as well as others often like fish and reptiles. I even lived and worked on a goat farm for a while and milked and cared for the goats. I'm an avid hiker and am happy to walk your dog for any length preferred on trail or road. In my other work I have over 15 years of experience as a healer (massage therapy and energy work) and meditation/yoga instructor and bring the calm this field has taught me to pet care. I'm used to hearing pet people tell me that their pets are so calm around me. I seek to form a connection based on trust and understanding with your pet. I am, without a doubt, a cat lady having had cats in my life since the age of 5. I currently have a sweet and sensitive Calico, who has lived with me for the past 11 years. She is a finicky eater and often deals with digestive issues, so I've had plenty of experience with various food regimes and giving supplements. We also have a sweet, playful, young male cat in our home (my daughter's cat) and a beloved bearded dragon. We recently welcomed a Shiba Inu into our family and she is such a joy in our home. I offer pet care as a side gig to my other work and love any opportunity to connect with your furry friends and other pets. I offer pet care part-time in addition to other work I do. I'm happy to walk dogs most weekdays/weekends between 8 am-3 pm and I can do pet check-in's most weekdays and some weekends and holidays with a few days notice. I am sometimes available for overnight pet stays in your home with ample prior notice. When coming to your home, I follow what usual routines you share with me for your pet and treat your home with utmost respect and care. If you have a preferred route to take your dog on a walk or favorite dog park, I'm happy to go with whatever your norm is and will make your dog most comfortable.
“She is incredibly kind. Please send me pictures and updates of my dog. She took excellent care of her. My dog returned clean, just as I had left her. I Will be booking with her again. .”
“Our dog had an unexpected medical issue right before we left town and required medication and a cone while we were gone. Nate was communicative and sent me a photo every day. Our guy was healthy and seemed happy when we got home.”
“Kristen and Estevan were absolutely incredible with Millie. From the very beginning, it was clear how thoughtful, attentive, and intuitive they are with dogs. They didn’t just care for her, they truly understood her. They provided the perfect balance of activity and calm, creating a natural rhythm in her days that included walks, play, swimming, and rest. Their property is such a special environment, with space to explore, fresh air, and so much to engage a curious, active dog like Millie. The updates they sent were amazing. They noticed the little things, like how much she loves chest rubs and how she settles after activity, and it gave me complete peace of mind knowing she was not only safe but genuinely happy and thriving. Millie came home relaxed, fulfilled, and clearly well cared for. I would trust them again without hesitation and feel so grateful we found them.”
“What a lucky find!! Very nice family & Bella liked having a little girl for her new friend. Danijela sent pictures & notes to keep us updated, since Bella has separation issues. So nice to have someone that Bella will know next time I’m visiting in Medford.”

“Would absolutely recommend Samantha to anyone looking for an amazing pet sitter. I have an older dog with very specific needs and she was the best caretaker of him I’ve ever had. She was very attentive and loving to him and made sure he was comfortable for the full two weeks that I was away. If you are looking for a competent, kind, loving pet sitter, look no further.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Jacksonville
Patricia is an amazing sitter. I came from WA, drove to Medford, then had to board my dog Blue while I flew to Phoenix, AZ and drove back to Medford with my Dad. Many things went wrong on the trip, but not once did I have to worry about Blue at all. Patricia sent me pictures and updates to let me know he was doing okay, but even without those, I knew she would take good care of him. You could tell she loved animals and was responsible. I can't thank her enough for the peace of mind she brought me. Thank you again Patricia!
Serena was very easy to work with when we needed a quick 24H stay for our pup Eli. She was always prompt to respond prior to the boarding time and we got updates during his stay. She made us feel comfortable that our sweet boy would be well loved and cared for with her family. Would definitely use her again!

There are 109 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Jacksonville. About 91% of Jacksonville sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.
Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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 pet, 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.
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 .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in OR ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.
If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
