“Cathryn was wonderful to work with! She was able to watch my babies for me on short notice when another sitter had to cancel. She took amazing care of my two large dogs and updated me often on how they were doing throughout the weekend. I will definitely hire her again for future trips!”


“Amy was amazing. My dog was so relaxed when I got home after 12 days away because she gave him such great care. She was very communicative and professional. She's my go to sitter as long as she'll have us!”

“Lauren is an exceptional sitter. She really understood the different needs of our dogs and was conscientious in every way. She was also very communicative and took great care of our home. We look forward to booking her again!”

About: I am currently on a pre veterinarian track at Jacksonville University. I have always loved working with animals from the zoo to vet clinics to my own animals. I have always loved to spend time with animals which is why I have decided to sign up for rover. I would love to express my passion and help others have complete comfort when leaving their furry friend. I want my clients to know they’re with someone who is passionate & experienced with all that is needed for their pets care. At home I have 3 dogs, 4 cats, 2 bunnies, and 2 guinea pigs! Everyday I experience hands on experience with pets feeding, cleaning, walking, and best of all giving them lots of love! At my clients home I make sure I go above and beyond to care for your pets! I will always be sure to make sure I clean up any mess, give your animal lots of love and comfort, and make sure all their energy is out whether that is throwing the ball outside, walks, or runs!
“Scott was wonderful! He was very communicative, took lots of photos, followed our instructions, and left our home neat and tidy. We would not hesitate to book him again!”

“Kelly did a wonderful job house-sitting for our two pups over a long weekend. She kept us apprised throughout the weekend with wonderful updates and pictures as well. She took great care of the house, and we felt safe knowing our pups were in good hands. We can't wait to use Kelly's services again soon!”

“Lee was very responsive and kept me updated with pictures the entire trip. Teddy looked like he was having an amazing time! I would definitely reach out to Lee again in the future!”

“Kristin was awesome! Our dog loved her and she gave him took great care of him. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a polite, trustworthy sitter.”
“Kristie looked after out pit-mix and cat for a weekend and was fantastic. She was gracious and asked great questions during our initial meet and greet. She gave us updates and pics throughout the weekend. She was such a calm presence for our animals while we were away. Our home was clean and looked great, when we returned. We would definitely rebook with her. Thank you Kristie!”

About: I’ve been house and pet sitting for many years to help my family and friends. It’s time to be rewarded for my love for animals and be paid by others for my services. It’s hard to find good “customer service” these days; I am the opposite, your pets will get great service/attention from ME! Bonus: my career has been as an Administrative Assistant so I’m very organized and can assist with other things too, if needed, requested and discussed. I am currently unemployed and have all the time in the world to care for my pet and yours. Toodles of course would stay home. Toodles is an inside cat. She is proven healthy and well fed, I clean the litter box and her food bowls daily. She gets treats and love. We just bought her a new perch to watch the birds and lizards outside the window. In someone else’s home with their pets, I care for them exactly as asked. Walks, feed, love, crate (if necessary), it is what the client wants that their pet shall get!
About: I have been caring for pets for several years, helping close friends by providing dependable and loving care for their animals whenever they needed it. Through this experience, I've learned how important it is to be patient, attentive, and to follow each pet's unique routine. I'm also a proud pet owner myself, with one beautiful dog named Luna and three cats—Wedge, Benimaru, and Ainz. Caring for my own pets every day has given me hands-on experience with feeding, exercise, playtime, litter box maintenance, administering basic care, and recognizing when a pet needs extra attention. I understand that every pet has a unique personality, and I treat every animal as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I work Tuesday through Saturday from 4:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m., which leaves me available during mornings, afternoons, evenings after work, and all day on Sundays and Mondays. I make pet care a priority and ensure every pet receives the attention, exercise, affection, and reliable care they deserve while their owners are away. Whether I'm caring for pets in my home or in a client's home, I focus on keeping their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I make sure they have fresh food and water, regular potty breaks, exercise, playtime, and plenty of love and attention. I follow any specific instructions provided by the owner, including feeding schedules, medications, and favorite activities. I also keep pet parents updated with photos and messages so they can have peace of mind knowing their furry family member is safe, happy, and well cared for.
“Sidnee was more than a dog sitter for us! We had a few house issues arise while we were away and Sidnee helped us take care of the issues while we were out of town. She stayed at our house for 4 nights watching our two active dogs! She took great care of them and left the house just as clean. We appreciate Sidnee so much!”

“Very appreciative of Evan stepping in to sit for our dog and cats. He was very communicative and took great care of our four footed family. Would highly recommend Evan.”

About: I’ve loved animals since I can remember! I’ve rescued every pet imaginable at one point or another! I’ve volunteered at FCNMHP for over 10 years and I’m very active in finding every pet a forever home! I’ve worked at Publix for over 21 years and I am currently a manager on the south side of Jacksonville. I have a flexible schedule throughout the day and I’m able to take breaks when needed. I am free most evening during the week and weekend. I’ve never met an animal that I didn’t fall in love with! Every animal deserves a full bowl of food and water, lots of pets, an unconditional love. There’s no such thing as an ending to the game of Fetch!
“Mary was great! She accepted to look after our puppy with such short notice. I think Chai really enjoyed her company and we will definitely rebook!”

“Sarah was great with our pups!!! One of them had to have a cone for a few days and she handled him with care. She stayed the night at our house and lived on our 2 dogs just like we would. I highly recommend Sarah for watching our dogs again!”

“Laura was great! She took great care of my dog and 4 cats. Laura was responsive and polite and seems to really love animals. She did everything I asked and sent pictures and updates multiple times per day. Highly recommend.”

So grateful to have Stevens support when we went out of town for the holiday. We forgot to book in advance and Steven was available right away, same day, even made time to stop in and introduce himself to our dogs before we left. Looking forward to having him sit our doggies again! 🐕💜💕

Evan is a spectacular rover! He took such amazing care of our dogs. One of our dogs is very shy and unsure around new people and barks a ton but he warmed up very quickly to Evan during the meet and greet due largely to Evan’s calm demeanor and great way with animals. He took amazing care of our house and even helped us fix an issue with our pool pump leak while we were away. We are so glad to have found Evan and look forward to his next visit with our pups!

Absolutely Wonderful!! I think our puppies were sad to see us return! Sarah was excellent! Played with our high energy border collies for a solid week and kept us in the loop about how they were all doing. We highly recommend Sarah and hope she can take care of our dogs again- I know our dogs hope so too!
Lyndsay is amazing!! She took care of our Sigi as if she was her own. She also stayed the night and made sure she was comfortable and took very good care of our house. Lyndsay is reliable and prompt in her communication and took care with medication and supplement instructions. We will be using her again soon and highly recommend her!!! Thank you again Lyndsay for putting our minds at ease while we were away.

Atreyu took amazing care of Nico and we couldn’t be happier. He followed every single instruction carefully, kept us updated throughout the stay, and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. Communication was excellent from start to finish. He sent regular updates and clearly paid close attention to Nico’s routines and needs. It’s obvious he genuinely cares about the pets he looks after. On top of that, he left our place in excellent condition. Everything was clean, organized, and just as we left it. We would absolutely trust Atreyu again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a responsible, attentive, and reliable sitter.
