“This was Rebekah’s first time sitting for our two cats and she was amazing! Our usually shy cat warmed up to her instantly, which is rare and meant so much to us. She sent great photos and videos and took excellent care of our babies. We felt totally at ease and would absolutely book with her again.”
“Alivia is amazing! She sent a ton of updates and photos during the visit. Our babies absolutely loved her ❤️ 10/10 recommend her for your fur babies. Will be booking her again in the future.”
“Olivia was reliable, communicative, and clearly very caring. I really appreciated the updates and photos — it gave me peace of mind knowing my dog was in good hands while I was away. She was attentive to instructions and made sure my dog was well taken care of each visit. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for dependable and kind pet care!”
About: I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life and have also cared for my own cat for many years. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to feed, walk, play with, and care for their pets while they’re away. I’m comfortable with dogs of different sizes and personalities, and I understand the importance of keeping pets safe, happy, and on their normal routine. I treat every pet like they’re my own and make sure they receive plenty of attention, love, and care. I’m a full time college student as of right now I have a job at my college that is very flexible to where I can make my own hours. Since it’s summer I don’t have classes so I’m free every day of the week! The safety and comfort of every pet is my top priority. I follow each owner’s instructions carefully to maintain their pet’s normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any special care needs. In a client’s home, I make sure pets have fresh water, a clean environment, and plenty of attention and affection. I am patient, responsible, and attentive to each pet’s behavior to ensure they feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owner is away. As a lifelong pet owner, I understand the trust that comes with caring for someone else’s pet and home, and I take that responsibility seriously.
“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%!”
About: When I turned 20, I went to the pound and got my first dog Ellie. In the past years, she made me learn responsibility and love. I am currently unemployed because I am focusing on school! So I pretty much have open availability to spend time with your lovely pet and more! my biggest thing is quality time and love with your fur baby! We will be adventurous and find new scents around the neighborhood. I will also make sure that they get their playtime, get well fed, and clean up after any messes!
“So communicative and really made sure my babies felt loved while I was gone.Sent pictures with every visit while keeping me informed of their behavior/mood. Wonderful! Will book again ☺️”
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.
“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. :)”
“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!”
“Scott was so helpful while I was away for this weeks’ work travel, dropping in a few times each day to feed, walk and play with the pups. He's always on time as agreed, gives them lots of activity and attention, and they love his company.”
“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!!!”
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.
“Em was very responsive and got back to me immediately, very professional and responsible, my dog loved her and she followed all our directions well. I will definitely be using her again!”
About: I grew up with beagles, and absolutely adore animals but I don’t own any at this time. I’ve had experience with both cats and dogs of different ages, breeds, and sizes. I did foster a young pup in college, and have also taken care of a few elderly doggies who needed extra TLC. Whoever your pet is, they will be loved and cared for just the same! I’m working part time during the week, so I will be able to spend plenty of time taking care of your pet(s) around my schedule! My schedule is pretty flexible before and after work as well. I leave everything as I found it in the house. When I have house sat and dropped by houses before, I’m always sure to be mindful of my surroundings and ensure it’s tidy. I also make sure I ask where any cleaning supplies are just in case there is an accident. I have found that each dog also has their own routine and favorite spots in the house, so I like to observe their behavior and follow them! I am there to cater to your pet, and as their sitter I am on their schedule, not mine.
“Shera was amazing! I have a feisty cat and she was able to handle him well and make sure he was fed and taken care of. She also watched my dog and we came home to a happy puppy and no messes!”
“Thank you so much for taking care of our boys! We’ve caught up after returning from our cruise and wanted to give you our heartfelt thanks. Your comments and photos during the week were really comforting.”
Southpoint pet parents share their Rover experiences
Here’s a short Rover review you can post: Leslie was phenomenal with my dog, Newman, while I was away. She provided excellent care, kept me updated, and gave me complete peace of mind throughout my trip. Newman was happy, well cared for, and clearly comfortable in her care. I highly recommend Leslie to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy pet sitter!
Rebekah is absolutely exceptional. We trusted her with our cats while our family was overseas, and I honestly cannot imagine having enjoyed our trip as much as we did without her. She provided outstanding care for our pets and cared for our home as if it were her own. During our trip, she discovered a flea issue and immediately jumped into action. She purchased supplies, treated the cats, helped treat the house, kept us informed every step of the way, and handled a stressful situation with professionalism and genuine care. Knowing Rebekah was there allowed us to relax and enjoy our vacation instead of worrying from thousands of miles away. She is dependable, proactive, communicative, and truly cares about the animals and families she works with. We came home to happy cats and a home that had been cared for with incredible attention and dedication. We are so grateful for everything she did and would recommend her without hesitation.
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.
Anzhelika is truly the best! Anytime we’re away, whether it’s a last-minute trip or a week long vacation, she is always able to make it work and takes the best care of our little fur baby. Not only does our cat get lots of love and attention, but Anzhelika goes above and beyond to keep everything clean and tidy while we’re gone. It’s such a relief knowing our cat is in such caring and reliable hands. We’re so grateful and couldn’t recommend her more highly!
