“Nicholas was so kind. He took great care of one dog who is quite old and needs a good amount of care. And another dog who is healing from an injury. He was very patient gave us great updates and is very reliable. We look forward to having him in our home again.”
“Amari was wonderful! She stayed in home with our 2 dogs and 1 kitten for two weeks while we were on our honeymoon. She made sure to keep us updated and send us a picture daily. She went above and beyond by making sure the house was cleaned up before she left so we were able to return and rest after traveling. Our animals absolutely adored her, I really couldn’t have asked for someone better for the job!”

“Adrienne was awesome! She went above and beyond to hang out with my pups and keep me constantly updated with pictures and videos so I could enjoy my vacation instead of worrying about my pups. Will definitely contact her again when I head out of town. Thanks for everything ?”
“Shelagh is the absolute best! This is the second time she has watched my dogs and is amazing with them. I came home to happy, healthy dogs and my house looks amazing. I appreciate that I can be away from home and I don’t have to worry about my dogs at all!”

“Taylor is the best dog sitter we have ever had. She is very responsible and takes great care of our 3 pups as well as maintaining the house while we are gone! I would highly recommend her to anyone who needs a dog sitter for their babies❤️”
“I can’t say enough about how fabulous Katie was with our Rottweiler Rosie! I recently returned from a six day business trip to Atlanta and really was concerned about Rosie‘s care while I was gone. I’ve never left her with anyone for more than a couple of nights. When I met Katie I knew that Rosie would be in good hands & I was right. Katie was willing to come to our house and meet Rosie multiple times - so that we all were comfortable with my trip. She kept us informed with pictures and texts during the entire trip… but more than that this wasn’t just a job to Katie. Took care of Rosie and my house (because I had her stay at our home on the island) as good as I would’ve taken care of everything. I came home to a happy dog and a clean house! it was so incredibly refreshing and a wonderful overall experience having Katie in charge. I wouldn’t hesitate to use her again!”
About: I’m a medical professional and animal lover lover with a huge heart for dogs, farm animals, lizards, and more! I have extensive practical experience at a vet clinic, at ranches and my own pets. Let me love yours! Over 15 years experience with professional care, but 30+ with my own dogs. Majored in animal science in college with neuro-psych doctorate. I’ll bathe, clip nails, and brush. I have a large yard and safe places to walk. I work from home part time but ant an hospital part time. Sometimes (rarely though) I go away for the weekend to go camping and site seeing. Your babies are welcome to come. They will hike and smell fresh air also. If traveling together, I like to give them a safety harness so they are secure and safe in the car. When I’m home it’s unrestricted access and with your babies. When I work I work from 9-4 in JAX. It it’s flexible and I’ll pay to have someone let your guys out if we need a mid-day walk. I pay for my girl to get a walk. I go for walks multiple times a day. My pug is chill and doesn’t worry about other animals. I only feed dry dog food, but will do anything for your babes.
About: I am very experienced in caring for dogs and cats including grooming, medicating and bathing. I provide in-home service so your pets are in their familiar surroundings. I am semi-retired so I have a variable schedule and can provide attention as needed. I provide in-home service to give your pets lots of attention. I only provide in home house sitting for my clients. This keeps the pets comfortable in their own environment and in their own routine, ensuring that they are happy while you are away.
About: I provide calm, attentive and reliable care for dogs of all breeds, sizes and ages — including puppies, seniors and dogs who need a slower, more grounded presence. I currently care for five dogs of my own, all with different personalities and needs, so I’m very comfortable managing routines, walks, feeding schedules, medications and individual care. I pay close attention to a dog’s emotional state and adjust pace, structure and energy accordingly. My approach is steady and respectful. Dogs tend to settle quickly with me and many clients tell me their dogs are calmer and happier after our walks. I prioritize safety, communication and consistency and I treat every dog as if they were my own. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine, and I’m able to be flexible with scheduling. I plan my days to ensure dogs receive consistent attention, exercise, and care without rushing. I prioritize safety, clear routines, and calm handling at all times. I follow owner instructions carefully, use secure leashes, and pay close attention to each dog’s comfort, behavior, and surroundings, whether in my home or theirs.
“She was available on short notice and was wonderful with our dog. She brought her son and he was very cute and very respectful with our older dog. Thanks again sitting with our girl for the day!”
“Linda was amazing with my dog Walter! She was always quick to communicate and sent alot of photos during their time together. They enjoyed several walks and cuddles. I’d definitely recommend her and trust her with my guy!”
About: I've had a dog (weimaraner) for most of my childhood, he was my buddy. I have boarded dogs at my house (senior rottweiler, pug, aussie, pitbull, red heeler) and walked neighborhood dogs (lab, border collie, goldendoodle) multiple times over the past 5 years, from adolescent to senior. I currently volunteer at a dog rescue, mostly with the thrift store but also spending time with the dogs. I truly enjoy having dogs around, I am not able to have my own at the moment and so I enjoy the time I get with dogs in need and neighborhood pets. I'm currently volunteering for 5 hours at a time, 2-3 days a week on Sunday and Monday, and I will be starting a job soon, so I will make sure to update my schedule once that is available to me. I can spend time with your dog all day when available to provide company, pets, and throw a frisbee in the yard, but I am also very comfortable taking dogs on long walks. I am pretty good about reading dogs' mannerisms and trying to adapt my activity based on their personality. If I'm new to a dog, I will try and make sure I do something with them they love to earn their trust.

Jessica was wonderful! She is caring and obviously has a soft heart for dogs. She took my Ringo for a long walk, played with him, and took him with her running errands in her big Jeep. She sent me pictures every hour showing Ringo having fun. I would HIGHLY recommend Jessica to take of your furry companion. Jessica will be my first pick for the next petsitting when I need Rover services.
Linda was an amazing dog sitter for our cocker spaniel. She was willing to stay in our home for a long weekend and keep our elder dogs routine. Surprising she coaxed our dog to visit the beach and take a surf side walk. When we returned our happy dog met us at the door and was full of stories as well as dogs can communicate. Linda was trustworthy and respectful in our home. We highly recommend Linda Kane.
Carly was fantastic! While I was away, she kept my very active pup busy with walks, fetch, and romping with her sweet and energetic dog Moose. Her communication before and during her stay were great. She is dependable and responsible and I would absolutely recommend her if you need a dog sitter.
Hailey did a great job taking care of our pets and the house. She contacted us daily and let us know how everyone was doing. She was on time, reliable, and responded quickly if we contacted her. All of the pets were in great shape and seemed to be very chilled out upon our arrival back. We are hoping she can pet/house sit for us again soon.
Always so grateful for Rhiannon taking care of our two babies. She is always so good and keeps us posted on how they are doing! I cannot recommend her enough. We have a special needs Bassett hound and she is very very good with her and we couldn’t be more grateful!
Prepare yourself for a long one. We needed a pet sitter as we were heading out on an 18 day European cruise and taking our family … so canceling was not an option. We came across Miranda on Rover and truly immediately liked her ! Well, were we ever correct !!! she is definitely “One of a Kind “ she isn’t just your pets pet sitter She is their guardian angel, their advocate, their surrogate mother, and as my husband likes to call her, “the pet whisperer”. What started out as a regular pet sitting job turned into so much more. Three weeks before we left on our trip one of our dogs ended up with a pretty serious liver issue. We made trips between Saint Augustine and U of F small animal hospital and thought we had this under control. However just after we left on our trip Valentina took a turn for the worst, thank God we had Miranda !! Miranda continued the trips to U of F and our local Vet for the remaining days of our trip. When I say she was our dogs advocate, I mean it. She took on the enormous task of conversing with doctors and the nurses when we couldn’t be reached. She syringe fed and hand fed our dog as well as medicated her several times a day while constantly sending us videos and pictures and reassuring us that Valentina was doing well … and she was ! by the end of our trip Valentina was eating on her own again ! We will never trust anyone but Miranda to watch our dogs !!!!! When I tell you, she’s the best … and she has the biggest heart for animals it’s the absolute truth. When Shes in charge, you can relax and be assured your pets are in the best possible care while you’re away ! Not only is she our pets guardian angel she’s a big part of our family now .
Julia and her husband Ryan are wonderful. My baby girl instantly loved them. They stayed in constant communication with me. I had high anxiety because we lost her brother 2 weeks prior but they made Loretta feel right at home. I would definitely recommend them. I had initially requested They stay at my house but with the death of my baby boy, they kept her at their apartment. Everything went smoothly and my anxiety lessened after the first night!
