About: Growing up, I cared for two wonderful dogs who taught me responsibility, patience, and companionship every day. One was a playful miniature poodle, and the other was a loyal cocker spaniel, each with their own unique personality and energy. Spending time feeding, walking, grooming, and playing with them helped me develop a deep appreciation for the joy dogs bring into a home. Today, I own a golden doodle that continues to strengthen my love for working with and caring for dogs. I am also currently volunteering at the Jacksonville Humane Society, where I help care for and walk dogs. This experience has given me the opportunity to work with dogs of different personalities and needs while providing them with exercise, companionship, and positive interaction. I am currently working part-time, so there is flexibility throughout the week to care for your pet! I am also available on weekend days. When interacting with a pet at someone else’s home, I make sure any doors and gates are securely closed, keep them on a leash when on a walk, stay aware of their surroundings, and follow any specific instructions provided by the owner. I treat every pet with the same care and attention I would want for my own.
“I’m so grateful I found her! She is so great at communicating and always keeps me updated, which gives me so much peace of mind. I’m especially thankful that I’m able to use her for the month that I’m here. She has been so kind, reliable, and wonderful to work with. I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust with their pets! 🐾🤍”
“Erin was an amazing sitter while I was gone, I got the best phots of my cat I have ever seen and got great updates on Kitty. Overall such a nice person and amazing sitter!”

“Another great experience with Scott! I couldn’t ask for someone better with my dog and more reliable. Will definitely be rebooking with him in the future, thanks Scott!”


About: I have extensive hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I’ve dog sat multiple dogs overnight as well as on a consistent weekly basis, caring for up to four dogs at a time. I’m comfortable managing feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and bedtime routines, and I make sure every dog gets individual attention and love. I especially adore puppies and enjoy helping them burn energy, stay engaged, and feel safe and happy while their owners are away. I treat every dog as if they were my own and prioritize a calm, fun, and safe environment so both pets and owners feel at ease. I currently work part time at Jacksonville University so I will have plenty of time to spend with your fur babies! Typically I’m available for boarding Monday through Sunday Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I live in a clean, calm apartment with no kids and no other pets, so your dog will have my full attention at all times. I carefully follow each dog’s routine, including feeding, walks, medications if needed, and any house rules you have in place. I’m attentive, reliable, and always aware of my surroundings during walks and playtime. I make sure dogs are supervised, secure, and never put in unsafe situations. I aim to create a relaxed, loving environment where your dog feels safe, cared for, and right at home.
About: Fur friends are enjoyable to be around, whether they are my pets or yours. When I am caring for pets, I am especially aware of their individual needs, their body language and their need for physical activity. My pets can tell me through their body language when they have had a good or bad sitter experience. When I care for your pets, I want your fur family to tell you that they had a good sitter experience. Happy wags and meows! During the week, I work from home but I have flexibility to drop in to check on your pets. I am also able to take them on walks or run around the back yard, if that is what they need. My desire is to provide a safe environment for your fur family when you are unavailable to care for them. I am trustworthy and intend to demonstrate that character trait to you. I treat others the way I want to be treated, including pets.
“Everything went great. The cats were well taken care of, communication was good throughout, and everything was handled exactly as requested. Reliable and easy to work with. Highly recommended.”

“Aaliyah is amazing with our young puppy! She is always on time, communicates very well, and we totally trust her. You can tell she really cares and has a passion for what she does! Would recommend 100%!”

“We had an amazing experience with Alivia! She took such great care of our dog while our family was out of town. During every drop-in visit, she sent multiple updates and lots of pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind. She went above and beyond by playing fetch with him, leaving him treats, a new toy, and even a sweet note. While we were away, he injured his paw in the yard (he was always supervised), and she was incredibly helpful by putting his cone back on when he kept trying to lick it. On our last day away, she even took our trash out without us asking, which was such a thoughtful gesture. It was clear she genuinely cared about his well-being and treated him like her own. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and caring. We’ll definitely be booking with her again!”

“Steven did a great job communicating with me before, after and during the visit. He was very patient with my old boy,Domino giving me great peace of mind. Will definitely book Steven again when the need arises.”

“Carter was fantastic with my dog Keeva and is very reliable. I cannot recommend him highly enough! I will certainly be reaching out to Carter for any pet-related services I may need. Thanks again!!”

“Risa has been wonderful! I had to leave my Rocket for a short trip and she took care and attended to his needs while I was away. Will definitely book her again. :)”

About: 🏡 Experience: I share my home with two dogs and two cats. I have 18 years of experience with my eldest animal, a cat named Tiger (in my profile photo). I also have multiple years experience in animal rescue, TNR stray cats, and fostering. I work full time Monday through Thursday until 5pm but you can reach out to me about availability. Depending on what type of service you need, I might be available during workdays. I have a fenced in yard in a quiet neighborhood. I have a dedicated room to pet care so that your fur baby feels comfortable. I have two very friendly small dogs of my own who are crate trained and two elderly cats.
“I booked Danielle as our first time on Rover and couldn’t be happier! Our dogs absolutely adore her! She was punctual and attentive the entire time and went above and beyond to make them feel loved while we were gone! 💗 You won’t regret booking her to care for your fur babies!”

“Kara was incredibly sweet and kept me well-informed about everything happening with my pets while I was away. She dedicated ample time during her visits, ensuring they received plenty of love and attention in my absence. Trusting a stranger with your fur babies and home can be daunting, but Kara made the experience completely comfortable. I’m truly grateful for her exceptional care. 20/10!”

“Sandra did a great job caring for our cat. She was comfortable giving his inhaler and spent lots of quality time with him during each visit. She also kept the litter box tidy and took care of things when he wasn’t feeling well. We’re grateful for her help and that we came home to a happy and well-loved cat!”

“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!!!”

Rebekah watched our three cats on very short notice, and she was fantastic. This was our second time booking her. She was incredibly responsive, dependable, and communicative throughout the entire stay. She kept us updated with great photos, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable pet sitter.

The sitter I had always used was unavailable so I had to find another good sitter. I found a really good one. Even though it was only a few visits, my cats were very well taken care of and things were done right. For me, that's what is suppose to happen. I don't want to have to worry about them when I have to go somewhere. And I got lots of pics during the visits.

Scott was kind and worked so well with our dogs. He handled our paralyzed dog with love and compassion and was sure to take our other dog on walks to ensure she wasn’t stressed. Honestly Scott gave us peace during our trip that we had been looking for! Thankful for him and looking forward to working with him again the future!!

Here’s a more organized, polished, but still super casual version with a bit of extra warmth: Justin did an awesome job with my two chihuahuas. They’re usually pretty skeptical of new people, but he was patient enough to get them outside and calm enough to actually go potty, which is a win in my house. He also followed all my oddly specific instructions for my quirky little dogs. Really appreciated how attentive and easygoing he was. I’d definitely book with him again.
