House Sitting New Town

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!

“Maverick was great! He was everything we needed in a puppy sitter. He was communicative and polite and the house was in great shape when we returned. 10/10 would use again!!!”

“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!”

“Johana did a wonderful job with out three dogs. She make sure Jack got his medicine on time and snuggle with them as they like it. She provided us with photo updates and we found a small Polaroid picture of the dogs and a nice thank you note from her when we got home. Thank you for taking such good care of our babies. We will definitely use your services again.”

About: I grew up surrounded by pets my entire life- mostly cats and dogs, but we also had fish, turtles, tortoises, gerbils, and even a few ferrets at one point! I know how much pets are our family and strive to provide the best care for yours. I've dog/cat sat for family and friends for years now and have become known as everyone's go-to pet sitter. I have extended out to some family friends and acquaintances as well and just really enjoy spending time with pets! My longest clients have had 4 different boxers in the 11 years I've been sitting for them. Their elderly boxer passed away earlier this year, and I was responsible for giving him medications including oral chemo for the last few years of his life. Additionally, my cat passed away a few years ago at almost 22 years old- she was on a steady medication since she was 16, as well as some other prescriptions throughout the years. Therefore I am comfortable with senior pets, giving meds, etc. Thank you for the opportunity to love on your pets when you cannot be home. I am always happy to do pre-booking meet and greets as well. I currently work full time Monday-Friday 8am-4:30pm in the downtown area. Therefore I'm mostly available evenings and weekends at this time. I'm very attentive and will make sure your pets are safe at home and/or on walks. I love to hang out and spend time with pets, especially since I currently don't have any of my own! I have a lot of experience with senior pets as well, and am comfortable giving medications.

“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: All of my life I have been surrounded by animals. Whether taking care of my dogs at home or being trusted to care for the pets of neighbors, family, and friends, animals have been a huge part of my life. I have experience with dogs of all ages & many breeds (and would love to meet some more!!!) as well as many cats with different personalities. I am a paralegal for a law firm, and while I work during the day, my evenings and weekends are almost always open. I am an early bird (think 6am Pilates-goer) and night owl, so I can accommodate early mornings and later evenings for your pet. I am very accommodating to whatever your pet may need. Whether that is an active walk or run with your pet or just company on the couch, I can provide that for your fur baby!

About: I am a huge animal lover- I currently have a few cats and dogs (high energy Belgian malinois and huskies), as well as a dozen quail. Previously, I’ve had multiple birds, turtles, fish, and chickens! I am extremely experienced with all types of caregiving and love doing it! I regularly take my dogs to fast cats, any outdoors activity like paddle boarding, runs most mornings, etc! I have extensive experience dealing with dogs with various medical issues. One of my dogs was diagnosed with a severe case of Addison's disease, requiring daily medications. My other elderly dog has frequent seizures, so I am confident in my ability is caring for special case animals. I am available for sitting, walking, or overnight boarding at any time, any day! I have completely open availability including late nights or early mornings. Safety is the most important thing- I carry my own pet insurance that covers more than just rover's. While on walks, I do not allow dogs to meet other strangers or animals in any situation. I always carry spare leashes and an air horn.

“Vanessa has helped with our dog before and we will absolutely ask her next time we need help. She is always here when she says she will be and sends updates and pictures to ease our minds.”

“I cannot recommend Mandy enough! She took care of my fur baby as if he were her own. Not only did she provide him with great potty breaks and meals, but she also made sure he got plenty of exercise and playtime. I loved receiving pictures of my pup having a blast while I was away. It gave me peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. If you're looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter, look no further. This sitter is truly top-notch!”

“Carrie was an absolute blessing caring for us and our 5 dogs while were were out of the country for our wedding. She is so organized, caring, and attentive to all our pets taking away all the stress of leaving our fur-babies for more than a week. She played with each of them, walked them, took them to the river to swim, snuggled the puppies, bathed them, and even cleaned the house to make it nice for us when we arrived home. She went over and beyond in every way which showed her dedication and love for animals. We will definitely use her many more times in the future and I highly recommend her to all families looking for honest, loyal care for their pets.”

“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!”

“Britney took very good care of my three dogs and sent me daily photos and text messages to let me know how they were doing. I will forsure use her again for any up coming trips in the future.”

“Mandy did a fantastic job caring for my dog, Zippy. He’s an older gentleman who loves his snuggles, and she was the perfect match for him. She kept me updated with photos throughout the 7 days she stayed with him, which meant so much to me. Mandy was also incredibly reliable, making sure Zippy received all his medications promptly and without any issues. If I could give her 100 stars, I absolutely would. She was truly excellent!”

“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.”

“Kelly was fantastic!! Waylen and Jax had the best time and Kelly took great care of them. Kelly also took awesome care of our house and even cleaned the sheets and remade the bed before leaving. Kelly is awesome, responsive, and made our trip stress free! 10/10 recommend”
