“Marilyn was always prompt when visiting with my pups. You can tell she genuinely loves animals and cares for their wellbeing. I would totally book with her again and I’m actually looking forward to it. Thank you for everything!”

About: I worked as a Veterinary technician from 2013-2018. Following this, I worked as a Medical Laboratory Technician at a Veterinary Laboratory from 2018-2022. I currently work remotely for the same Veterinary Laboratory Company. I have a ton of knowledge and experience with Animals! I am a full-time employee working remotely, giving me time to spend with your fur babies! I also do not have any pets at home myself. I always make sure to respect pets and pet owners based on their comfort levels and needs. I own my home with a fenced in back yard allowing time for play and potty breaks. I have years of experienced in pet care so I can quickly pickup on pets’ social ques and behaviors. During walks I am equipped to properly leashed or harness pets during walks. If needed I am familiar with lifesaving skills in case of emergencies and can administer medications if necessary.
About: I have been caring for my own pets for 20+ years with a lot of love and patience! I have significant experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, and breeds. I have also cared for reptiles, fish, and multiple cats. I currently have 4 pets of my own, including one with complex medical needs. I put a lot of work in what I do and I love all animals! I am looking for part-time work. Mainly available on weekends and in the evening. I can always be flexible and add more time as needed for families! I am a very detailed oriented person! I always read ingredients, check for allergies and sensitivities, and research toys, treats, and environments to ensure safety of the animals in my care.
About: As a fellow pet owner, I understand the importance of truly special care. That's why I go beyond the basics, providing personalized, expert attention that caters to your pet's unique needs, always prioritizing their physical and emotional well-being. Let's schedule a meet and greet to discuss how I can care for your furry best friend! Caring for animals is a natural extension of my daily life. My routine for my own pets includes time for walks, playtime, and grooming, which allows me to genuinely connect with them, address their needs, and reinforce positive behaviors throughout the day. This is the same expert care I aim to provide for your beloved animals. A comfortable and trusting environment is key to a pet's well-being. I achieve this by maintaining routines and minimizing stress for all pets, from energetic pups to calm seniors. Since every animal is unique, I personalize practices like playtime, feeding, and bonding with plenty of affection for their complete physical and emotional comfort.
“Karen is amazing. Played with my two cats, showed up on time. Followed instructions to a "T", and my girls really appreciated her company and care. Made going out of town easy and stress free. I'll definitely book again when I need cat care, I cannot stress how amazing of an experience this was!”

“Stephanie is fantastic with my pets and they love her. She gives great info and wonderful and fun pictures at her check ins. I feel safe having her take care of my 2 pugs in my hone. Always a job well done.”

About: My name is Rachel. I am 29 years old. I have a two year old Shiba Inu mix named Benny. I have 10+ years of experience with small to medium dogs. My experience with dogs include: providing exercise and interaction, administering medication when needed, supplying food and water, cleaning surrounding areas, and following the instructions given by the owner. As a dog owner myself, my wish for my pet and yours is to feel loved and cared for. My hope is to spread the importance of caring for pets no matter what breed or size. I have plenty of time to devote to walking your dog(s) and checking in on them! I'm working a part time job that gives me the flexibility to care for my own pups and help others too! I treat every pet like they're my own. I want to show them that they're loved and cared for. Providing exercise, feeding them, giving treats, and giving them all the pets is just the beginning of what I can offer!
About: Hello my name is Jay! I am a dog mom to a 6 year old miniature schnauzer named Alfred (Batman fan I am). I am very active and energetic! I like playing with pets to help get all their bundled up energy out. My friends would also say I have the patience of a saint because I am so calm and willing to work with excitable or hyper pups. I am also very disciplined and detailed oriented so I will ensure all your pet care wants and needs are followed exactly as described. I am flexible with my time so if you need to make any adjustments just say the word! I look forward to meeting you and your lovable pup very soon! I'm currently working part time, while I finish my Master’s degree. I'm not currently caring for outside pets in my home as I have moved back home with my parents to save money. I follow the pet parents instructions to a T to ensure the pup's routine is not interrupted while their pet parent is away on vacation.

About: I have always had a dog growing up, and everyone I know has dogs. I currently have a cat who enjoys being an only pet, so I am here to get my puppy fixed. Ready to meet new animals friends and make some money on the way. I work an 8-5 job M-F. I work a steady 8-5, M-F at a law firm downtown. I live near University Blvd, but don’t mind traveling to meet new pet friends. I am perfectly happy to hang with pets indoors or outdoors. As much as I enjoy playing with pets, I can also go for walks and do feeding schedules.
Jacksonville University pet parents share their Rover experiences
It’s hard to find someone that we can trust, and our puppies feel good with, but we found Jeweliana and Riley!! On our first visit with them, we immediately knew we found someone that we would love and our puppies would feel comfortable with! For pet owners that spoil our puppies, Jeweliana just continues with our trend! The communication is top notch, the pictures are excellent and not only does she spoil our puppies like we do, we are spoiled as well! We will use them over and over again. What a fantastic service she provides!
