About: I have been around dogs almost my whole life growing up with one so ever since being new in college I have always been seeking for connections with dogs. I am a student athlete so any sort of activity for your pet is never a problem for me! I am a student athlete at UNF so my schedule is pretty busy but I have a few hours to spare during my day! Here are my times when I am free: Monday/ Wednesday 1:20-2:55pm, Tuesday/Thursday 3:00pm- night, Friday 1:20-2:55pm and 4:00 -night) I have a dog at my house and the way i would care for it would be feed it and definitely get its exercise in for the day depending on what the owner wants and be very attentive

About: From a young age my grandma volunteered me to help look after our neighbors pets. But it never felt like a chore. I mean, is there any better job? I'd start with one house, & word of mouth had me sitting for a handful of neighbors! Overnight as well. Sitting was always for dogs, & I'm already a long time cat owner, so I'm the best of both worlds! I work part time as my main job, so I can pop in or stay overnight to look after your pets no problem! I'm best available Thursdays & Fridays, but can sit any night. I'm very respectful of my clients homes. I'll always leave it how it was found. Your pet will get all the care they desire, & the care you demand.

Jen just started walking my dog & I am so happy! She came to do a meet & greet beforehand & was very professional & good with my Daisy. She sent pictures of her during the walk & made sure my house was locked before leaving. I came home to a very happy dog. I would definitely recommend her!

About: I grew up on a farm in East TN, taking care of any farm animal you can imagine from a young age along with our pet dogs, cats, and rabbits. I moved to Jacksonville to attend UNF. Although I’d love to get a dog, I don’t have the time or money for it as a student-athlete. So, I figured I would come on here to maybe have the opportunity to to give some extra love to other people’s pets! I’m currently taking classes Monday-Thursday, but I have long gaps and I’m done early enough in the day that I could easily walk dogs during those days. My weekends are mostly open, depending on the week. I’m a very active person, and I would love any chance to walk, run, or play with dogs! I’m very detail oriented, so I could easily follow any instructions for fences, leashes, and things like that for your specific dog.

About: I’ve grown up surrounded by animals and caring for pets has always been second nature to me. Throughout college, I worked for Woofie’s, where I built strong relationships with both pets and their owners through dependable, loving care. I also volunteered at Young-Williams Animal Center in Knoxville, gaining experience with animals of all backgrounds and personalities. I truly enjoy making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. 🐾🤍 I work a FT 9–5 job but am available for morning, evening, and weekend pet care, ensuring your pet gets consistent attention, exercise, and love. I care for pets by sticking closely to their normal routines so they feel comfortable and stress-free. Whether in my home or a client’s, I provide regular feedings, walks, playtime, and plenty of affection while keeping their space clean, safe, and secure. I take time to get to know each pet’s personality and needs and I love them as my own!

About: We’ve owned many dogs before. We travel frequently for longer periods of time so we can’t have another of our own in this season. We still want to fill the time we are home with a dog in the house and be able to help out families. I work from home and my husband is a teacher so he is home mid afternoon and each evening. We are in and out during the weekends. We live very close to a dog park if that is something your dog is interested in and love going on walks around the neighborhood. We love spending time outside in the backyard or cuddled on the couch. We also have plenty of space if your dog prefers to be in a crate or on its own.

About: I’ve lived with dogs since I was old enough to hold a leash and I’ve also volunteered at the humane society and lived on a farm with 8 large dogs. I’ve learned to care for dog of all types of personalities I’m patient dependable, and always pay attention to the small details that help animals feel safe and relaxed. Whether I’m staying over night or just dropping in, I treat every pet like they’re part of my own little family. I am currently working part time and I am available before 3pm and after 7pm or any time on the weekends. I am pretty flexible if it is needed. I provide attentive and reliable care for pets in their own home, following all instructions you provide. I make sure dogs get walks, potty breaks, and play time according to their routine, and cats receive feeding, litter box maintenance and gentle attention while respecting their space. I observe pets’ behavior and well-being and send regular updates so you can feel confident your furry friend is safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away.

About: Boarding: Dogs must be crate trained and vaccinations up to date. Must be kid friendly and do well with large dogs. I have a large, shaded back yard where we can play with toys or fetch. Walk around the quiet neighborhood or take a nap and cuddle. I have an active golden doodle who can’t wait to have a play buddy. I will happily take your dog on walks, play their favorite game and keep a structured routine if needed. Administer topical, injection or oral meds. Meet and greets preferred prior to care. I am currently working from home and have a large shaded yard. Which means potty breaks and outside play and relax time are always available. I will make sure your pets schedule is followed so you can be sure your pet will have fun and be cared for while you are away. My home is doggie safe. Minimalistic feel with little to no clutter. Space for your dog to stretch out and relax. Separate room with crate for sleep and/or alone time if needed. If I leave the house crate trained dogs can safely stay in crate with water and food. Feedings can be done separate if needed. Please bring leash, water and food bowl, and favorite treats. Do not bring toys because they will be enjoyed and destroyed by my dog.

About: I’ve been walking dogs since I was 10 years old and always grew up with cats and dogs. Work from home so flexible schedule. Happy to not just sit the pets but make sure they have a great time. I work from home and have a flexible schedule. I’m in sales so just need to know a week ahead to block off times and not book meetings when needed. Weekends are good too. I have a big back yard that’s fenced in. Also have a pool - fine w dogs going for a swim if that’s their thing. My 3 cats play well with others. Spacious house with 4 bedrooms so plenty of room to explore and have space. I have 2 cat towers as well.

About: I am a full time pet sitter. I have worked with animals in multiple capacities for over 20 years, including working as a vet tech, fostering cats and dogs, volunteering at an animal shelter and doing an internship with a vet. I believe all pets deserve to be pampered with walks, love, cuddles, and treats! Your pet will be treated like family while in my care. I am fully insured on top of the Rover guarantee, I have pet cpr and first aid training and I am continuously taking trainings on animal care and behavior. This is not only my profession, it is my passion. I do pet sitting full time so I am home most of the day. If I go out it's rarely for more than 3 hours. Your animals are my number 1 priority and they will receive lots of attention. I treat all my clients like family. We lounge on the couch or we go fir walks or olay with toys. Whatever your animal wants to do, we will do. When I come to your home I will ensure everything is locked when I leave and I can rotate lights and bring in mail so it doesn't look like you are out of town. I will follow your schedule for your animals and make sure they stay safe while you are away. I have experience with medical needs such as needing oral or injectable medication, including insulin. I can handle special needs such as mobility issues, vision problems and more and I have experience owning and caring for geriatric dogs. I do require meet and greets so please ensure you book with enough advance notice that we can set one up.

About: Hello! I’ve worked in animal welfare for 5 years- training, behavior modification, and wellness. I’m very comfortable with dogs and able to work with dogs that might have some behavior issues! I recently had a baby, so my schedule is isn’t as flexible. However, I will make sure my calendar reflects that. Just message me and I’ll see if timing works! I am able to read and understand a dog’s body language. I also know how important it is the respect their body language. I will never do anything that will make your dog uncomfortable and I will always let you know what I’m seeing and how things are going!

Deborah is a true lifesaver. I had a day trip planned and my Rover backed out. Not only did she take on a last minute job, but she provided such detailed rover cards and incredible photos, that it felt like I truly knew what was going on back at home. I cannot wait to book more dog walking and drop in care services with her!

Dog Walking FAQs

Frequently asked questions about Rover

If you’re searching for a Sandalwood dog walker for the first time, visit the dog walker’s profile and select the Contact button.

If you have an active request or have booked a service with a dog walker before, learn more about how to do this in the Rover app or on your computer.

Rover makes it easy to reach out to multiple dog walkers about your booking. Typically, dog walkers on Rover respond in under an hour.

Experience can vary widely from dog walker to dog walker, but you can view reviews, years of experience, and number of repeat clients when comparing dog walkers available in Sandalwood.

You can’t always predict a super busy day at work, but you can anticipate your dog’s needs. Instead of rushing home at lunch, book a dog walker to give your dog a 30- or 60-minute dog walk. Your dog walker can stop by as many times as you need—on whatever days you need them. With the Rover app, get a comprehensive Rover Card from your dog walker that includes:

  • Start and stop times
  • A map of their walk with total distance
  • Pee, poo, food, and water breaks
  • Cute photos and a personalized note

Yes! Dog walkers joining Rover must pass a background check before offering their services. You can also easily keep in touch with your dog walker through messages on Rover for delightful photo updates. The Rover team is available 24/7, and your dog walker has access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals. In the rare event of any issues during a booking, rest easy knowing your dog is covered by the Rover Guarantee reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care.

Note: If your dog walker requested to cancel this booking, then they need to cancel from their account. Please contact them via Rover Messages.

We get it—sometimes plans change and you may need to cancel your dog walking service. You can cancel an upcoming booking directly from the Rover app or your computer, in accordance with your dog walker’s cancellation policy.
