“Laura was so sweet with our dog! She was very responsive, took lots of pictures, and most importantly we felt comfortable leaving our dog with her! Thank you Laura!”
About: I am a positive and enthusiastic pet lover who has been dog sitting off and on since I was a teenager. I recently graduated from Louisiana State University with a degree in political communication and have moved back home to Jacksonville. I currently work part time and am looking for a way to make a little extra money. I have a 15-year-old Shih Tzu and a 12-year-old Boxer mix. I have been taking care of my Shih Tzu since I was a child and I adopted my senior Boxer mix in 2023. I am extremely responsible and have been trusted with several jobs, including dog sitting and walking. I have experience with wound care, medicine (including administering eye drops), and bathing both small and large dogs. I live just a 1/2 mile away from the beach which is perfect for walks and playtime. I look forward to loving and caring for your pups just as I care for mine! My work schedule varies and is not consistent but I typically work Tuesday and Friday nights, and sometimes on Sunday or Saturday nights. I’m typically free in the mornings and afternoons. I live in a condo complex with my parents and our two dogs, but they are friendly with other dogs. The surrounding area/neighborhood is beautiful and is just a 1/2 mile from the beach, perfect for walks and playtime.
About: I’ve been caring for animals pretty much my whole life! From hamsters and bunnies to dogs and cats, I’ve always had a deep love for animals! I care a lot about their safety, happiness, and well-being. I truly believe animals deserve to be treated with the utmost love and respect. After spending time watching my family’s doggies this past summer, I realized just how much I miss having animals around! As much as I’d love to have a dog of my own, I want to be sure I’m in a season of life where I can give one all the time and attention they deserve. In the meantime, I’d love to pour that extra love into caring for your fur babies! I’m looking for a few bookings each week and would love to build a lasting relationship with you and your pup if we’re a good fit! I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and longer stays, whether at your home or mine (depending on your pet’s needs and what works best). And honestly, I’m always happy to sneak in some extra cuddles! My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away, with plenty of attention, playtime, walks, and pets along the way. I work full-time but would love to make pet sitting a regular part of my week! Walks & Drop-In Visits: Mondays & Thursdays: 5 - 9 PM Tuesdays: 5 - 6:30 PM Fridays: 5 - 7 PM Saturdays: 9 AM–8 PM Sundays: 1 - 8PM Doggie Daycare: Saturdays Dog Sitting: Friday evenings through Sunday evenings, with the option to start Thursday evening if your pup is comfortable being home alone while I’m at work. I’d love to provide your fur babies with lots of love, cuddles, and reliable care! I live in a spacious apartment with two animal-loving roommates, and your pup can expect lots of cuddles, cozy couch time, and a comfy spot in my room at night! We have beautiful lakes and walking paths right outside, perfect for walks and exploring. I’ll always prioritize your pup’s safety, follow your preferences around other dogs, and make sure they feel loved and at home!
About: I'm the proud mama to 3 mutts: Bull/Terrier Mix, Kodak, & two Basset/Lab Mixes, Nikon & Fuji. I have always been a dog lover & have fully enjoyed dog-sitting & dog-walking for friends & family back in OKC, my hometown, & I can't wait to get to do the same for your fur-member here in JAX! I also work at a dog park bar & have gone through dog behavior training & walking. I work full time from home M-Fri, but I can be flexible and am usually available on the weekends. I also take care of my motley crew of 3 pups on the daily. At my own home, I have a fenced-in yard and our dogs to either keep your pup company or have multiple crates to separate them if necessary. I'm happy to check in or dog sit at clients' homes too.
“Claudia kept us well informed with pictures and videos. She was so caring with our cats. We will definitely rebook. Trust that your pets will be well taken care of”
“She was awesome 😀😀 Kept me up to date with info and pics of them. She was great and would def use again and again. She also took them in with a late notice too, she was the best 😀”
“Lisa and David were great to our dogs. They kept in touch and sent pictures which was wonderful! Our dogs adjusted right back to being home with no issues. I’d definitely book with them again.”
“We are so grateful to Anolan for taking such amazing care of our two dogs, Maisy and Hendrix, this past weekend while we made a last-minute trip to New Orleans for the birth of our niece. From the very beginning, Anolan was incredibly kind, patient, and responsive. She sent us updates and pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind knowing our doggos were both happy and in good hands. Maisy and Hendrix absolutely loved her (and her sweet dog, Benji, who they got to go on walks and play with!), and they were clearly spoiled with love and treats. Anolan’s boyfriend was also great with them, and it was heartwarming to see how comfortable and relaxed our pups were in their care. We ended up being delayed in picking them up, and Anolan was nothing but understanding and gracious about it. We would 1000% recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog sitter. Thank you again, Anolan—you’re the best!”
“Our 14 yo sweet Dixie had a great first time stay with Em! The communication between us was fantastic prior to her stay and during with daily updates and pictures! Dixie is on some daily medication which I had laid out directions for Em along with her eating schedule and everything went very smoothly! We have a second visit coming up again soon!”
“I had such a great experience! My dogs clearly had an amazing time and looked like they were having the time of their lives. Brooke was very attentive and kept me updated throughout their stay, sending pictures every day and letting me know how they were eating and doing. I really appreciated the communication and knowing that they were being well cared for. When they came home, they were completely worn out, which tells me they had a wonderful time! I’m very happy with the care they received and will definitely be using Brooke again. Highly recommend!”
About: i have always had dogs, so i know very well how to handle and take care of our dogs! I truly enjoy animals, i know different dogs need different type of care! I have plenty of time to pet sit! I do not work and i’m currently a stay at home mom! I am really always free and pretty flexible! At our home within our neighborhood there is a fenced in dog park, where plenty of dogs enjoy roaming! I usually take any dog in my care out about every 4 hours to the back yard for potty breaks, with one long afternoon walk and one trip to the dog park! Our backyard is not fenced but dogs love going back there to have a change of scenery!
“Was going out of town for work and it was an absolute pleasure having Amelia watch my pup. Went above and beyond and recommend her anytime your parting with you fur baby!”
“Joanna was amazing. Great sitter and highly recommend her. She had great communication and shared a bunch of pictures and videos during Lila’s stay. It seems like she had a great time there and I’ll definitely leave her there again when needed.”
About: I’ve grown up with animals of all kinds my whole life. They are not pets, they are family. Taking care of them is second nature. There is no better feeling than making an animal feel loved. You can rest assured your furry family is in extra kind caring hands while you are away. I’ve rescued many dogs and cats either to forever keep or find a loving new home. Every one of them still has a special place in my heart. As a stay at home mom I have extra time to care for animals. This opportunity is so rewarding for me. I’m able to contribute to my family while helping yours. Im available to cater to your families normal daily routines so they never feel abandoned or confused. My number one priority is their safety and happiness. I’m always attentive to their behaviors and ensure they are comfortable and happy while documenting their fun activities for your pleasure and assurance. I can asses their real time needs and act quickly to accommodate them. I hope you can sense my real heartfelt love for all my “friends”. I live in a spacious home in an animal friendly community. Animals are welcomed anywhere in the house according to your specifications. I have no restrictions when it comes to caring for dogs and cats in your home or mine. I’m a very healthy active mom that handles extra large breeds all the way down to cute fun size. I’m very capable of any activity you want for your furry family.
“Great set up for the dogs! We loved getting pictures of our happy pups during their stay. They had so much room to run and play. Great communication. Definitely recommend.”
“Adriana was amazing! My dog took to her immediately and he’s normally shy. She had a pool for my dog to swim in and a big backyard for him to run around and play. She sent me pics and videos of him everyday while I was away. She also helped me by cooking his food for him while I was away. I will definitely be rebooking with Adriana when I go on my next trip!”
“Justin and his wife were simply AMAZING! They took excellent care of our Bella with daily updates, texts and pictures throughout her stay. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a caring person to look after their fur babies.”
“Yessica and Ray were great! Super professional and personable. Daily pics and updates, and a very dog friendly house and backyard. We’ll definitely be sending Luca there whenever possible.”

If I could give 10 stars I would. Elizabeth truly went out of her way to accommodate me. I had to leave town for a family emergency and needed a last minute boarding for my cat, Shoelace. Elizabeth was completely understanding and accommodating to mine (and Shoelaces) needs, especially with a such a last minute thing. So kind, professional, and all around amazing amazing person. Could not be more grateful, and I can’t recommend her enough!
Presley took such wonderful care of Gwennie while I was out of town! She sent pictures every day, which gave me so much peace of mind, and gave Gwennie lots of love and attention. It made being away so much easier knowing she was in such caring hands. I’m so grateful to Presley and would happily book with her again!
Our Boy, Clay, a young Vizsla. Spent 17 days at Barbara’s. We were afraid he wouldn’t want to come home, he was having such a great time! He is a very good but high-needs pup and I believe he received the love and attention we wanted for him. We would highly recommend Barbara and hope she’ll be available to watch Clay again sometime.
Carolyn was amazing watching Loki! He got injured the morning I was supposed to drop him off and she gave such amazing reassurance he would be taken care of with his stitches and providing his medication!! She sent many updates and pictures, very easy to communicate with and overall just a genuine animal lover. Couldn’t ask for a better experience
Lauren and her pup Brew were excellent hosts for our high energy dog Luna! The two dogs got along like best friends and Lauren was professional, communicative and clearly cared about our dog and worked to get her (high!) energy out. We would absolutely recommend Lauren and would certainly book with her again.
My little boy came back clean and soft with these adorable Polaroids pics of his 9 days away! Each day I had pictures and a little note of what they were doing for the day. This brought me so much peace while I was away. The true test of any dog is if they will go on a starvation strike the first few days. Morkie felt so comfortable with her that he ate more food than when he stayed with my sister! They even let him sleep on their bed with him. He was so loved! Thank you Rebecca for keeping his routine and making him feel like we were never gone!
Nancy took great care of Sasha during her stay. She was very responsive whenever I had questions and easy to communicate with throughout the entire booking, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. Most importantly, Sasha came home happy and relaxed, which is always the best indication that she was comfortable and well cared for. I appreciated Nancy's updates during the stay and would feel comfortable leaving Sasha with her again in the future. Thank you, Nancy, for taking such good care of my sweet girl!
Susan was great to work with and made everything really easy from the start. Gwennie settled in right away, which is not something she does everywhere, so that meant a lot to me. It felt like she was genuinely cared for and comfortable the entire time. I really appreciated the attention and flexibility Susan showed throughout. I’d love for Gwennie to stay with her again and would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can trust.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Boarding in Jacksonville Beach is $39 per night as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $30 and $53 per night. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
There are 1,127 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Jacksonville Beach. About 92% of Jacksonville Beach 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
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 FL 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.
