“I was very satisfied with Amy. She came before the stay so both my cat and I could become acquainted and review house access. She and my cat were immediate friends. She sent me pictures each day and we communicated by text and email. My house looked better when I returned than when I left. She is very kind and caring and I would recommend her without any qualms.”

“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!”

“Chyna has been outstanding! I have left my baby with her many times. She is very sweet and professional. She sends you many pictures during the day and keep us posted. I would recommend her without any hesitation. I already have rescheduled for my future vacation. She is the best!”


“Johana made a great impression at the meet and greet, and as far as I can tell, she did a great job taking care of Lexi and the house. She kept me informed with texts and pictures several times a day. Definitely someone I would hire again.”

“Mignon and Coco are not easy clients — they expect VIP treatment only. Cheyenne delivered! My pups approved her immediately (which never happens). Thank you for such amazing treatment!!”

About: I like to update you on your pet/s every day, how they did and how they played. I also like to send pictures to you of your pet/s and videos for you to enjoy! I'm here to help right when you need me. I enjoy caring for all pet family and updating you with photos or calls of our time together. Reach out for more info. Pet care is heavily dependent on owner instructions and my own care experience. My attention is based on scheduled care and includes daily walks, proper meal preparation and admission, medications as necessary and active/brain play and independent settling.
“Pam does a wonderful job taking care of Archie and Cooper! Very attentive and providing us plenty of updates and photos while we are away! We appreciate everything she does and know our dogs are in good hands!”

About: Hi, my name is Cierra Robinson. I am a dedicated pet caregiver and cat owner in Jacksonville, Florida. My family and I provide a safe, loving environment for pets while their owners are away. We welcome friendly dogs, cats, birds, rabbits, and other caged pets. Pet parents provide food, bowls, medications, and special care instructions, and we follow those instructions closely. Our home offers indoor and outdoor options, daily attention, playtime, feeding, fresh water, and lots of love. I believe every pet deserves patience, kindness, and quality care, and I treat each animal as if they were my own. Pet care fits naturally into my family's daily routine. I am home most days, and there is usually someone available to help monitor, feed, water, and check on pets throughout the day. We recently moved into a home with a large yard, which allows dogs additional space for exercise and outdoor time. Because we have a family household, pets receive regular interaction and supervision. I work closely with pet parents to follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, exercise routines, and any special care requests. Whether your pet prefers quiet time, playtime, or a structured routine, we do our best to make them feel comfortable and secure while you're away. Your pet's safety is my top priority. I carefully follow all instructions provided by pet parents because I believe every animal has different needs, routines, and preferences. Dogs may stay indoors or outdoors depending on owner preference, weather conditions, and the pet's needs. We have a large yard and two outdoor dog houses with blankets available. Indoor dogs are welcome but are not allowed to roam freely throughout the home. Cats are kept in a safe, controlled environment unless otherwise instructed by their owner. Pet parents must provide food, medications, and any special supplies their pet requires. Before accepting a booking, I like to learn about your pet's personality, habits, fears, and favorite activities so I can provide the best possible care. My goal is to create a safe, clean, and comfortable environment where your pet feels respected and cared for.
“Wow! I knew once meeting Scarlett that I had made the perfect match for my pup, Curbie. She and her daughter, Markie tag teamed at my house while sitting with my pup for almost 2 weeks. They both are animal (dog) lovers— you can tell that in the meet and greet by the questions she/they asked about caring for my older dog. I got updates and pictures even knowing I was out of the country and I might not have received them Scarlett and Markie still sent them to reassure Curbie was in great care. He was happy when I got home. Scarlett cared for my home too. She left it cleaner than when I left for my trip. She even washed her bed linen— I will be using her again and recommending her in the future to those who need a sitter for their pets of varied breeds and sizes. It’s scary to leave your pets in someone’s care but I was at ease knowing Curbie was in excellent hands.”

About: I might not have ever owned dogs myself, due to allergies within my family, but don’t fear! I have always been first choice amongst my parents friends/family to dog sit! I’ve always done a great job & felt confident in my care giving, instruction following, and love and play giving. 🤗 I decided to lean more into my side hustles, and this would be a great additive to keep me moving, having an extra dollar in my pocket, keeping me involved and present with animals, and to be of service to my community. All which I value greatly! My side hustles include running Markets (Mom’s Elderberry booth at the Riverside Arts Market), Basketball/Sports photography, home/kitchen/fridge/depression room cleaning services + energy cleansing, Social Media Managing, creating/selling my own art, and a bunch of other random stuff along the way! I include this information to benefit your understanding of me as a person as well as just in case you have a need for any other service and would like to see if I’m fit for the job :) I am cleanly, careful, and I won’t creep around in your space. I will make our interactions quick, easy, and painless. I will do my very best to consistently keep you in the loop, send you picture updates of your babies, and follow your instructions just as they’re given. If I have questions or would like further direction, I will not be afraid of asking you. I’m a team player and would like to make this service to you feel like a breath of fresh air.
“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!”

“Philip was available to meet at the last minute and was very flexible in meeting up to meet my dog. He had responsive communication during the whole time I went out of town . My dog was very happy and well taken care of. I am so glad to find someone to keep my dog for in the future. Thank you Philip!”

“Anna stayed at our home and took care of our four fur-babies over a long weekend. She did a great job keeping everyone on schedule, giving medications, and making sure they all had lots of play and cuddle time! She’s awesome!!”

“This is the second time we've booked Matt, and he once again provided exceptional care for both our dog and kitties. He is scrupulous about taking notes during the meet-and-greet (we had moved since our first booking, so he did a second M&G). He has a loving heart for animals and their needs. My daughter noticed how he scrubbed out the dog and cat bowls and left the house in better shape than he found it. Highly recommend!”

“Kristin was awesome! Our dog loved her and she gave him took great care of him. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a polite, trustworthy sitter.”

About: I’ve taken care of my personal dogs as well as family dogs for years. I love to play with them and just sit and cuddle with them as well. I am currently a graduate student at Jacksonville University. I am available after 2pm everyday, and on the weekends I can do all day! I am also usually up pretty late at nights so can do late night walks/sitting as well. I am a very trustworthy person. On walks I will make sure they don’t get into anything that may be harmful and always be prepared when in contact with other people/animals.
Sherwood Forest pet parents share their Rover experiences
Chloe was amazing! She was thorough and went the extra mile for our dog an cats while we were away. She was very attentive being that our animals are much older and with our dog being 15 its harder for her to get around. She was also very communicative giving updates theough the trip. I highly recommend and would use her again in the future.
