“Mandy was so great! We loved the pic updates. It was our first time using rover and the updates gave us reassurance that our fur babies were in good hands and being taken care of. We were so grateful tht she was able to extend our booking and allow us to enjoy a couple more days on a much needed vacation ! Would def recommend and rebook in the future. Thanks again Mandy !”

“Bryce and his wife were able to come visit my kitty with only a days notice. They took their time to let him warm up to them and sent me pictures and great updates. Thankful to have some peace of mind that he was doing ok while I was gone.”

About: I own and run a grooming/boarding facility here in Jax. Petcare is my passion! Branching out to include petsitting as well, so as to offer a one-stop shop of sorts for all your pet care needs. I provide courier service to vet appts and can groom your pups should you need those services during your vacation! Being that I run my own business, I set my hours, so I can do the same when caring for your pets. I have vet tech experience and am a certified pet groomer. I can administer meds, assist with potty training needs, clean litter boxes, do light house cleaning and make your home appear lived in, ALL while entertaining your babies and keeping them safe. When I come to your home, your pets will be provided loads of love and attention, all while remaining where they feel most comfy, in THEIR home! Should grooming services be needed, I can provide that as well. All dogs will receive a free exit bath! This includes nail trimming and ear cleaning.
“Brooke was absolutely amazing with our pups! She took such great care of them and left the cutest little note and photo for us when we got home. She was on time for every visit, and sent very detailed reports each time. It gave us total peace of mind on our day trip south knowing our dogs were in good hands. We will definitely be using Brooke again and highly recommend her!”

“I am so grateful for her services. She has been a blessing to me and my animals. She is honest and thorough and goes out of her way to make sure everyone is taken care of. She has a genuine love for animals.”

“Emily was fantastic! She looked after our two cats perfectly and kept us updated with great communication and lots of photos. It’s such a relief to find someone so reliable. Highly recommend!”

“Brianna was AMAZING with Winnie! She did a drop-in visit and took such great care of her—played ball with her outside, made sure she had fresh water, and gave her lots of belly rubs and love. 🥰 She also uploaded 3 adorable pictures which made me feel so reassured while being away. I can tell Winnie was comfortable and happy with her. I would absolutely book Brianna again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring! 💕🐾”

“Erika is calm, trustworthy, and knowledgeable. She has been coming to my house to do midday drop ins for my two sighthounds. They are usually reserved around new people, but Erika won them over right away. Highly recommend!”

“There’s a reason Evan has a perfect rating. He was able to take care of my cat with only 12 hours notice. It was an unexpected/emergency trip so there was no advanced planning but Evan rolled with it, found everything - food, litter, the house key (!) It really was last minute. Evan even loaded and ran the dishwasher for us so that we didn’t walk into a disaster Highly recommend Evan!”
About: Hey there everybody! The summer is upon us and I am ready to spend time with your fur babies! I am a dog lover and missing interactions with the furry ones! I currently was blessed with a stay-at-home job and would love the opportunity to take care of individual, pets when needed. I'm very flexible and have lots of availability throughout the day to walk, play, and cuddle with the dogs!! I currently work full-time but am remote and have a flexible schedule I can work around what you need! Your pets are always welcome in my home and will be spoiled!!!! I live in a gated community that is very safe. Your pets will never go outside without a leash on and there's lots of area to walk

About: I treat every pet as if they were my own and strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I naturally connect with animals of all personalities, including shy, anxious, senior, and high energy pets. I believe every pet is unique, and I take the time to learn their routine, preferences, and individual needs. I have experience caring for: • Dogs of all sizes, breeds, and ages • Senior pets requiring extra patience and attention • Cats with a variety of personalities and care needs • Rabbits and other small animals • Pets requiring oral medications and routine care • High-energy pets that need exercise and enrichment I also volunteer with the Jacksonville Humane Society on weekends, where I continue learning about animal behavior, handling, and enrichment while helping care for shelter pets. More than simply feeding or walking pets, I focus on building trust and creating a calm, low stress environment so they feel secure and happy while you’re away. You’ll receive regular updates, photos, and clear communication throughout each visit, giving you peace of mind that your pet is receiving attentive and compassionate care. As a college student with a flexible schedule, pet care is one of my favorite ways to spend my free time. I enjoy staying active with dogs on walks and spending quiet time with cats and other small animals. My schedule allows me to be available throughout the week, including many evenings and weekends, and I do my best to accommodate last minute requests whenever possible. I’m organized, dependable, and committed to providing consistent, loving care that fits seamlessly into your pet’s routine. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, and it’s a rewarding part of my day. I live in a spacious apartment that provides plenty of room for pets to relax and feel comfortable during their stay. I also have a friendly pet rabbit who is accustomed to being around people and other animals. For the safety and comfort of all pets, my rabbit stays in his own private room whenever I am boarding or caring for another animal. My apartment community also has a fully fenced dog park where dogs can enjoy supervised off leash playtime and exercise. Safety is always my top priority, and I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, preferences, and any special needs to help them feel secure, loved, and at home while you’re away. I provide regular updates, photos, and open communication so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is receiving attentive and reliable care.

“Stop reading reviews and book Dessirae while you still can! She is amazingly trustworthy and caring. Our pups absolutely love her. We never want to book anyone else.”

About: I have been pet sitting/pet watching for over 3 years, while simultaneously owning and taking care of my own dog for over 10 years! I love getting to know animals and their sweet personalities, and knowing that you, the owner, trust me enough to let me love your babies! I've dealt with everything from cancer ridden cats, diabetic dogs needing insulin, to amphibians and pets of all sizes. I have patience and love for animals and have always and will always go above and beyond for you and your pets. They are more than pets, they are family and it is important they are treated as such. I encourage meet and greets prior to our first meet up so the animals meet me, my home, and my family.
About: I have my own doggies, they are both 3! I’m used too picking up the pet care when parents leave to go out of town and just take stress off their shoulders! Friends and family, cats and dog i’ve always been the one they call. I’m used to very strategic routines with my baby’s so i’m willing to do the same for yours. Doing the best in every way to make my stay with them as comfortable as possible! I currently work 5 days a week 8-2pm and i’m looking too pick up something i’m actually interested in, We all know how a high school job can last after high school when it wasn’t planned and i’m very interested in baby sitting and pet sitting for people and just giving back the love i share with my animals where it’s needed! I have a fenced in yard for both of my puppies and everyday i come home and make sure they get plenty of play time with me. They have a routine with me, I feed them every evening at 5pm and give them supplements for their health so they live the longest and happiest life !

We really enjoyed the sweet pictures and fun stories each day. 100% recommend Toree for any pet care needs! Very fun, considerate, and kind. <3”

Lake Forest Hills pet parents share their Rover experiences
We have used Brooke a few times now for drop ins for our mini trips, and she has been amazing every time. Dependable, always shows up on time, and has accepted our last minute requests. I absolutely love her detailed reports and all the photos she sends during each visit. It gives a peace of mind knowing our dogs are being well cared for while we are away. Highly, highly recommend Brooke to anyone looking for a trustworthy and reliable sitter!

Brianna was AMAZING with Winnie! She did a drop-in visit and took such great care of her—played ball with her outside, made sure she had fresh water, and gave her lots of belly rubs and love. 🥰 She also uploaded 3 adorable pictures which made me feel so reassured while being away. I can tell Winnie was comfortable and happy with her. I would absolutely book Brianna again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring! 💕🐾

I was worried my dog would have anxiety and a hard time being boarded in a new environment with loud noises, and unfamiliar people. She hasn’t had much human interaction and barks out of fear. I’m so glad i used Rover and met Joseph, my trip was very relaxing, I didn’t have to worry about Bell and her safety at all. I was in full contact with joseph the entire trip and received photos daily. Highly recommend!!
