“Brooklyn was amazing! This was our first time using her, she was very punctual and sent pictures. She treated our pup like her own. We will definitely be booking her again.”
“Thank you to Kailee for watching Kipling! He can be a handful but she took great care of him. Kip loves to play and has no shortage of energy and Kailee made sure he was able to run around and gave him lots of love. We will definitely use her again and it’s great to have someone in the area we can trust.”
About: I’ve always been the person who gets way too excited when there’s a dog at the party. 😂 I truly love animals and know that every pet has their own personality, routine, and favorite things. Whether your pet wants to go on an adventure, play all day, or spend the afternoon cuddled up on the couch, I’m happy to match their energy. You can count on me to be reliable, attentive, and treat your pet like part of the family—with plenty of pictures along the way, of course! 🐾 My schedule is pretty flexible, which gives me plenty of time to make pet care a priority! I’m able to work walks, drop-ins, playtime, and plenty of attention into my day without your pet ever feeling rushed. I’m also happy to work around your pet’s normal routine as much as possible, because I know consistency is important—especially when their favorite human is away Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, my biggest priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved! I do my best to stick to their normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and any special instructions you leave for me. I’m big on giving each pet the attention they need—whether they’re a cuddle bug, full of energy, or just like having someone nearby. When I’m in a client’s home, I’m also very respectful of their space and always make sure everything is left just as I found it (or better!). And of course, expect lots of pictures and updates
“Alyssa is outstanding! She went above and beyond in taking care of my sweet but shy, cat (Binx). I was surprised how quickly she won him over and loved seeing pictures of Binx playing and eagerly accepting Alyssa’s attention. Alyssa is dependable and an excellent communicator. I highly recommend Alyssa and look forward to booking her to care for my sweet boy in the future.”
About: I grew up in a home full of animals and loved every second of it. Being surrounded by dogs was such a special part of my childhood and helped shape my love for caring for them. Today, I have a 3 year old dachshund of my own who has been one of the biggest blessings in my life. As a pet parent, I understand how important it is to know your baby is in safe and loving hands when you’re away. That’s why, on my days off, I enjoy providing that same peace of mind to other pet owners. I treat every pet as if they were my own, ensuring they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Whether it’s playtime, cuddles, walks, or simply keeping your pet company, I’ll make sure they receive the attention and care they deserve. Caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life, and I genuinely enjoy incorporating pet care into my weekly routine. They bring a special kind of happiness and comfort, and I love having the opportunity to care for them when their owners need a helping hand. have a home with a fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely play, explore, and get plenty of exercise throughout the day. Inside, pets are treated like part of the family and are welcome to relax, play, and roam comfortably in a safe, supervised environment. I understand that every dog is different, so I do my best to maintain the schedule and care they are accustomed to at home.

I balance college, working part-time, and my dog-sitting business. Caring for animals is something I truly enjoy, not just a job, and I love being able to make it part of my daily routine. I care for your pets the way I’d want someone to care for mine. Whether they’re staying with me or I’m coming to them, I focus on keeping their routine consistent and making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved.

About: I’ve owned 3 golden retrievers in my lifetime. I’m also very active and love to exercise with my dog!

“I am so happy to have found Celeste! We are not in the center of town, and I am pleased to have found someone who lives nearby. Celeste took care of our cats over Christmas, and she was punctual, conscientious, and very polite.”
About: Hi! I’m Lauren — an active, outdoorsy person who recently traded the corporate grind for a little more freedom, and I’m excited to spend some of that time with your dog or cat! I grew up with dogs my entire life and have years of experience pet sitting for friends and coworkers. I’m reliable, responsible, and genuinely love being around animals. I especially enjoy getting outside for walks and adventures, but I’m equally happy hanging out with a pup who just wants some company. I’ll follow your pet’s routine, communicate throughout the visit, and send plenty of photos and updates so you know your pup is happy and well cared for. I’ve also put in time sitting cats - including some high-maintenance felines that needed special medication administered. You can trust me to follow instructions closely! I have a very flexible schedule right now while I am pursuing entrepreneurial ventures. I’d love to use dog sitting as a regular part of my schedule to get outside and keep moving - recurring bookings welcomed! 😊 I am meticulous and am always sure to completely close and secure all gates, doors, exits, etc. I’ll always keep my eye on your pet to keep them safe and comfortable.
“Our boy is very happy we're home, but all the pix of him hugging and playing with Meg left us wondering if he was going to trade us in for a new hooman.”
“Luz was great! I’m so happy that I chose her to stop by and take care of my dog, Ducky, while my partner and I went out of town. Our original sitter cancelled on us just a couple days before we had to leave and Luz was super responsive and able to do a last minute booking. Ducky looked incredibly happy in her visit updates as Luz played with her a lot and she was also able to given ample walk and outdoor time for bathroom usage.”
“Patrick is super friendly and has a great demeanor with Smokey. I can tell he has a lot of experience with dogs and acts completely at ease with my anxious dog.”

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Jacksonville Beach
Jess was great! She did a meet and greet to meet the animals before our first visit and it was clear she’s an animal lover. I’ve got an all energy golden she took extra time to play fetch with at each visit. She was punctual and did a great job watching my babies. We will be using her again
Candice was great at taking care of my two kitties! I have a kitten and senior cat who require extra care given their ages and Candice went above and beyond. She provided a photo and update every visit which put me at ease. She has a very kind demeanor and left my house as good (if not better) than I left. I would recommend Candice for future pet care and hope to rebook her soon.
Carter has been great in watching/walking my French bulldog bean. He is always on time and gives feedback on how bean did on his walk. My Bean is in great hands with him - I highly recommend him as someone who is dependable and trustworthy to watch your animals.
Hands down best dog sitter! Flexible, very kind and great at communicating with dog parents. Kept Annie safe and happy during inclement weather and kept us updated with messages and pictures! We were in town for a ballgame and needed a sitter in a pinch and she went out of her way to meet Annie ahead of time and put our minds at ease! 10 out of 10!
She was amazing with Capone, my American bully mix! She was always on time, super attentive, and made sure everything I asked for was taken care of. She went above and beyond during her visits and spent time with him rather than just checking on him and leaving. She would play with him, take him on walks, and even on a rainy day, she spent the visit hanging out and cuddling with him inside. She sent great updates after every visit, including multiple pictures and a little recap of how the visit went. She was also very respectful of the house. Capone was always so happy after her visits. I would absolutely recommend her and would definitely book with her again!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Jacksonville Beach is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $17 and $28 per visit. 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.
As of November 2026, there are 2,653 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Jacksonville Beach. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Jacksonville Beach. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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 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.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
