“Fantastic temperament! My female poodle was not used to a housesitter and decided to spend the first day and a half barking and Johana handled it well. Would HIGHLY recommend her!”


“Crystal was amazing with our pup, Henry! He got lots of love and had some fun adventures with her too. She took great care of our house and left everything in perfect condition. I highly recommend Crystal for all of your pet/house sitting needs!”


“Brianna was a life saver! We were able to book and meet last minute for a weekend house sitting. I was definitely impressed by her versatility and expertise in caring for pets of all kinds. She provided great care for my dog with anxiety and two kittens! Brianna ensured they were well-fed, entertained, and snuggled. I highly recommend Brianna’s services to anyone in need of reliable and trustworthy pet care!”


“Victoria was amazing with our girls, and gave them all the special attention needed for the 4th of July festivities. We’re so appreciative to feel confident in the great care she takes with both our senior dog and young one, as well as our home.”

About: New to Jacksonville. I’ve owned plenty of pets growing up, experienced with dogs large and small. Very patient with animals in general. I own a French Bulldog, his name is Billy. He is very energetic, and gets along with everyone. I own a food business and bartend part-time, so my schedule is flexible. My mom will also be home around the clock, for extra supervision. There’s plenty to do around my neighborhood. Billy will also be there to keep them company whenever they want, and will respect when they just want to chill.

About: Growing up in a home full of animals and with my parents being veterinarians, I truly believe that our pets are not just pets, they are family. You can rest assured that with my experience caring for my own family's pets, shadowing at my parents' vet practice on my pre-vet path, and with my master's degree in animal behavior your four-legged family will be safe and comfortable under my care. I am currently in between work after finishing graduate school, so my schedule is very flexible to give your pets the care and attention they need. It’s easy to worry about our pets when they’re out of our sight. Under my care, you can rest easy knowing that with my knowledge of animal health and behavior from my education and shadowing experience at a veterinary practice, I keep a keen eye out for any health or behavioral issues which may be affecting the comfort of your pets.

“Katherine was amazing!! She was great with sending updates and keeping us in the loop with our babies! Can not recommend enough!! Thank you Katherine!! ☺️”


“Ligia was an excellent choice for our fur babies . She sent photos of both dogs and kept us up to date with their care. She left our home clean and tidy and gave notice when she arrived and left . We are greatful for her care”


“Shana was fantastic! She took great care of our dogs and house while keeping us updated the whole time. Our pups were happy when we got back. Highly recommend Shana – 5 stars across the board!”


“Hannah did an amazing job taking care of my dog, Marley! I’ve used Rover a couple of times, but Hannah is by far the best dog sitter I’ve used from Rover. It’s very difficult to find a really great, and reliable sitter. She stayed overnight in my house and stayed in touch with me throughout whether it was texting or sending me pictures of Marley. Marley loved Hannah! I will definitely be using Hannah again!”


About: Hi, you are looking at a lifelong animal love who just quit her corporate job to love on dogs full time! 🥰 About me: active, healthy, woman in my mid 40s with lots of love to give. My mom raised maltese pups since I was a little kid. I raised my own mini dachshund since I was 18 who lived a full life until she crossed the rainbow bridge at 16.5 years old. I also had many cats and rescued a pup that wandered into our front yard. Dogs are MY life, so I happily welcomed Jaxie (mini dachshund) into my family in Feb '20. He is such a sweet boy - loves belly rubs, hunting lizards, and playing with all his furfriends. If you have a friendly pup who enjoys the company of another friendly pup, come on over! Your pup will have so much fun. Jaxie plays very nice (very submissive, is always on his back, even with chihuahuas) and loves to get chased and be chased. Jaxie is not food aggressive. And, he's not toy aggressive either - he loves sharing his many toys with his furfriends! Or, if your pup doesn’t want to play, Jaxie is great matching his energy level to other pups. We’ve had many older pups here where Jaxie leaves them alone out of respect. On the other hand, he’s also amazed pet parents by getting their older pups to play! My 24/7 job is to take care of your furbaby I'll be home with your furbaby all day, watching over them, snuggling them, and making sure they stay safe and enriched with playtime. We have lots of toys here! House is organized and clean at all times. My fiance is a firefighter who works 1 day on, 2 days off. As such, on his off days, he's home all day. We live at the end of a cul-de-sac in a very small and quiet neighborhood. Backyard is fully fenced and backs up to a creek. No neighbors in the back. Whenever your pup is in the backyard, I am always out there. Your pup is never unattended outside. Your fur baby can sleep and hangout where ever they want (couch, bed, dog beds). If your dog loves walks, we'll go on walks. If your dog has a sweet tooth, we'll get pup cups! Or, if your fur baby just wants to chill, we can do that too! I sync my energy level to your dog's energy level. I do not take any other dogs during the same time period as I am caring for your pup. I can do drop in visits or walks if you live fairly close to me. Finally, I am a good communicator (can't you tell by this dissertation; ha!) and will send updates and pics at least 3 times a day. If you want less, just let me know. :) My daily routine revolves around my own dog, so rest assured your dog will be treated like family, and will be given the same amount of care and attention; dogs are #1 in my household! When I take care of your furbaby, ensuring your furbaby is happy, fulfilled, and loved is my number #1 goal! We can do meet and greets via Zoom or at my house. Your call!

“Sarah was awesome with my cat! Super friendly, reliable, clean and asking if any additional help needed. I loved getting little updates while I was away—it gave me total peace of mind. Definitely would have her pet sit again!”


“Laura did a fantastic job watching my little guy, Cash! She sent me updates and photos which I always greatly appreciate and was flexible with some time changes at the last minute! We highly recommend her!!”


“Mark is awesome sauce! He is a very calm individual who my dog is OBSESSED with, he has a lot of pro tips, and has helped us with the behavior of our dog. He is responsive, reliable, and a pleasure to be around.”


“Maggie was absolutely wonderful with my cats. She was an easy choice for me - she communicated professionally, was very cheery at our meet and greet, and listened intently to every detail I shared about my cats. She cared for my cats like they were her own! I highly recommend her!”



“Becca demonstrated incredible maturity, responsibility, and compassion while caring for my dog. Her dog Boomer was also extremely friendly and patient. I felt so safe leaving my dog with her, and she regularly sent me photos and updates on how my dog was doing. Thank you.”


“Sandra and her daughter were great with my dog! They kept me updated and made sure he got lots of love and playtime. I felt at ease the entire time. Would definitely book again!”


About: I have had multiple dogs in my life time and love to take care of them and see them happy. I have also dog sat multiple times from a high anxiety Dalmatian to a small cuddly Chihuahua. I currently have a dog of my own who loves walks and is very high energy. I am very patient and love working with all pets. I do work full time but I have a flexible work from home schedule. I am open to early morning and afternoon visits and all the time on the weekends. I am very experienced with high energy animals and have good patients. I love to see your pets happy and healthy. I would never do anything that I was not 100% comfortable in doing. Your pets safety is my number one priority.
