About: Hello everyone! My name is Tyler and I am a Jacksonville native. I have been in the pet sitting/dog walking business for over 16 years. Caring for animals has always been a true passion of mine. I can administer medications and assist with grooming. In the past 7 years I have specialized in senior pet care. I look forward to caring for your babies as if they were my own! I am currently offering daily dog walking/pet check-ins. I also provide boarding services at my home, where your baby will be a member of our family. I live in a house with a locked, fenced in, back yard. I have children so safety is my number one priority. For boarding services I accept "CRATE TRAINED DOGS ONLY" I occasionally need to run errands and for the safety of all the pups staying I prefer to crate all pups while I'm gone. My dog named Sage passed away 4 years ago. She was my baby for 16 years. Now we have an indoor/outdoor cat named Cali. During the day she loves to sun bathe in the back yard and snuggle up in her bed at night. While caring for your pets I follow all instructions for your home and make sure your baby feels loved while you are not home.
“I can’t think of a more loving and capable caregiver than Brittany! Brittany did an amazing job with my Scarlett! My dog took a liking to Brittany immediately and she just connected with her so well. Brittany was extremely communicative, friendly, and very professional. We will be using Brittany regularly in the future for all our pet caregiving needs, and we would recommend her to anyone!”

“Karen is amazing. Played with my two cats, showed up on time. Followed instructions to a "T", and my girls really appreciated her company and care. Made going out of town easy and stress free. I'll definitely book again when I need cat care, I cannot stress how amazing of an experience this was!”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs the majority of my life. I truly enjoy dog-sitting, I find that walking is great for both parties and the dogs that are in my life, I tend to them as if I had kids. Some people say that dogs aren’t people but I have to disagree.. they have the same feelings and emotions we do and it’s so uncanny, dogs surprise me everyday. I am willing to work with any owner who has certain requests say, if you’re training your dog or have them on a specific regimen. I am also open to a bit of dog grooming as my services will enhance as I progress. I’m sure you’ll be more than satisfied and I can’t wait to meet your loved one!

“Jasmine is AMAZING!!! We have 4 HIGH energy dogs with separation anxiety and we, ourselves, have mad anxiety about leaving them alone for any period of time. She was open to helping us scent-train our dogs to learn her smell before coming over. And she was also open to both meeting us and doing a trial visit before we booked out a longer trip. On the day of the actual visit, she was SO communicative + helpful the entire time. Plenty of pictures and the pups who are wary of strangers, LOVE HER. We are so relieved to have found the perfect dog sitter for our babies and can rest-easy knowing they will be in her care while we’re gone. Book her!!!”

“Kimberly was great with my girls! She kept me informed and provided updates throughout the day. I have no doubt the girls were very well taken care of. I would definitely recommend Kimberly and know that she would looks after your pet’s needs!”

“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!”
“Shera was a wonderful pet sitter from my initial request! She responded quickly and answered all my questions. She even did a meet and greet for our sweet Poppy! First time I haven’t had to worry about my dog’s anxiety in a long time! She was super sweet and attentive to our needs! I would highly recommend her for any pet sitting needs! We will use her again!”

San Jose pet parents share their Rover experiences
Francesca is amazing. My anxious pup has never taken a liking to someone so fast. She even listened to Francesca when she gave a command and took treats from her, which is a big deal! Francesca is punctual, communicative, and has a calm and caring demeanor. She is all around excellent. I definitely recommend her!

Anna was wonderful. My 3 cats are pretty skittish and generally not great with strangers. Because of this I had told Anna that she shouldn’t expect to see them when she came. My expectation was that Anna would check their food and cat and scoop the litter pans. Anna went beyond my expectations and even was able to spend a little time with my cats and sent me pictures which was very reassuring while I was away. I would HIGHLY recommend Anna!!
