We live with a 3yrs old Corso mix, and we both take care of our her making sure she always gets her exercise and a lot of cuddles. During his/her stay, your pet will be treated as a member of our family. We enjoy doing activities with the dogs, especially going for walks around our neighborhood or to the beach. Marco works part time so he is pretty flexible during the week, and Eleonora works from home 2 days a week. We are around weekends, available for drop in or walks or pet sitting. We have a fenced yard and a very friendly dog that can play with your fur baby. We can also arrange dividing spaces as needed. If we found out about your dog having fleas/lices, we will charge for a bath ($50) and for special cleaning of the house for $250.
“Claire was very sweet to my old puppy. She put up with his attitude and took such great care of him. I truly appreciate your time! And I hope you will watch the pup again soon!”
About: I have been trusted to take care of my own and friends animals since I was little. I volunteered at a cat rescue center in high school which taught me a lot about how cats thrive. I am currently a college student who is in between jobs so I have a ton of time to care for your pets! I am free all week and into the weekend. I love treating pets like they’re humans and give them all of my attention. I will care for your pets as if they are my own.
About: I have cared for dogs and cats my entire life, both as a pet owner and by helping friends and family with their pets. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them is truly my passion. I also have experience caring for senior and geriatric dogs, so I understand the patience, attention, and extra care they often need. Whether your pet is playful and energetic or older and needs a gentler approach, I will treat them with the same love and care I would give my own. I currently work part-time, which gives me plenty of flexibility to spend quality time with your pets, whether that means walks, playtime, or extra attention and care. I am available Monday through Sunday and can work with a variety of schedules to help meet your pet care needs. I will give your dog or cat my full attention during every visit, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for. I also pay close attention to each dog’s safety, comfort, and individual needs during every walk.
About: Based in Jax, I have over a couple dozen years experience of dog walking, cat sitting, housesitting & petsitting in the owner's home. I can check on pets during the day and take them for short "potty" breaks while you're away from home. I understand and easily follow detailed instructions for feeding, medication, and even watering plants. Meet & Greets are encouraged! I am ok over 100 miles for overnights. Why I love dog sitting I (Amy) had a wonderful large dog growing up on a farm. We also had cats, hens, and rabbits. I love warm blooded animals and enjoy treating them like family. My girl (Gracie) was a Craigslist rescue because she failed as as hunting dog. My boy (Thunder) was a starving stray at the farm who was begging for love and a job! My pets have all crossed the rainbow bridge. two Siamese boy cats and the two adult dogs on the profile. My experience administering medication Oral and topical medications are easy for me, but injections will be left for the owner. I’m on personal leave so I can fit in a few activities a day. I can overnight or various visits. Always up for walks from your place. I can easily release and crate your dog. I’m well versed in leashing and harnesses. I can coax the shyest of cats out with toys and snuggles.
About: I've loved animals ever since I was a child. My experience started with a senior Shih Tzu that I rescued from a family friend who constantly traveled. He suffered from multiple allergies and joint issues. Took care of him until he was a senior and could no longer move on his own. Experienced in handling bigger dogs who are not very socialized and have difficulties being walked. I try to stay active, so I do a lot of cardio by walking long distances and take advantage and take the dogs then. Flexible on walking times! I now own a 3-year-old CavaPoo. Got him when he was a 12-week-old pup. Potty trained him and taught him basic commands, lives with me full time, he is the light of my life! I treat other people's pets as if they are family. Whether your furry friend needs a walk, a play session, or overnight care, I provide a safe, loving environment where they will feel right at home. With flexible scheduling and personalized care, I'm here to make sure your pets are happy and taken care of while you are away. I work a regular 8-4 Monday- Friday and full availability on the weekends. I live close to work, I walk my dog during my lunch breaks! Fully available during bank holidays. Each pet has their own preferences, so I make sure to adapt activities to suit their needs—whether it’s a more relaxed, cuddly day or a high-energy playtime. I take extra care to respect the pet’s home and their environment. I follow any specific instructions the client provides, such as pet diets, medication schedules, and preferred activities.
About: Since high school, I have always loved animals. Now, I work at an animal hospital and I have experience with caring for dogs and cats.

I also work at an animal hospital, so if there’s ever an emergency, I can act quickly and get them immediate care.
“Lauren is the best. She is so timely and available on short notice. My work schedule changes weekly and she has a big heart for Paulie. He loves her! She shares a lot of details about their time together and I’d recommend her to anyone!”
“Amanda has been wonderful! She always arrives on time and sends great pictures of the dogs on their walk. She goes the extra mile and plays with them and gives them some extra love before leaving.”
“Parker-Lynn did drop in visits on our cats while we were on vacation for two weeks. I have to admit that I was nervous about leaving my babies, but Parker-Lynn did such a great job at checking in when she did her visits, sending pictures and updates each time. It definitely took a huge weight off our shoulders to know that our kitties were being well cared for while we were gone, and we plan to hire Parker-Lynn for next time too!!”
“Sherri is the best, I am so happy to have found her on Rover! Sherri listened and noted all of our pet care instructions ( my pets have distinct needs) and followed them implicitly. Her care, focus and follow up for my fur kids is perfection!”
About: I've taken care of dogs my entire life. From overnight stays for friends and neighbors to daily check ins and walks, I have done it all!

I will strictly adhere to any rules or preferences you have for your pets and your home. I cannot wait to hang out with your fur babies!
“By far the best sitter I have found for my fur babies! My girls love him! Adam is very good with our babies even though they can be a handful at time. He kept me well informed and sent amazing pictures and updates! I definitely recommend and will use again!!!”

Taylor took great care of Maggie, my Black Lab. She stopped by twice during the day for walks and visits and sent me a couple of pictures during each visit, which I really appreciated. Communication was excellent, and she answered all of my questions promptly. Since I had never met Taylor in person, I felt completely comfortable leaving Maggie in her care. I would definitely recommend her and would gladly use her services again.
Amy was amazing! I am so glad we found her thru Rover! She was consistent and gave our dogs lots of attention while we traveled for the holidays. We will definitely use her in the future! She made our trip less stressful just knowing they were in good hands. Thanks Amy :)

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Jacksonville Beach stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Jacksonville Beach choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, 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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
