“Offered time for my pups to explore and reviewed special instructions for my senior dogs with me before I left. Loved the daily updates and photos!! Appreciate you taking care of my girls, Katya!”
“Wendy provided exceptional care for my baby, Chloe, and we will definitely be relying on her services again. She kept me updated with pictures and progress reports, gave Chloe a bath, and ensured her bedding was clean. I’m beyond pleased and incredibly grateful to have found a dog caregiver who truly loves and cares for dogs. Highly recommend!!!”
“Charlayda has been our sitter multiple times, this was the first time she watched both of our dogs, and she did an amazing job! Daily updates and photos, we love that she’s a safe space for our fur babies.”
“I would definitely recommend Patti to any pet parent that wants their fur baby taken care of like they were family. Patti had great follow up & made sure I had plenty of photos and videos of my boy Flex. She made sure to communicate anything he needed promptly. Top of my list if/when I need someone to watch him in the future.”
“I recently moved to Jacksonville and interviewed 4 sitters before I found Tannia and Chris. As soon as I met them I knew they were the ones! Beautiful people, beautiful home, beautiful experience. My Frenchie is 6 years old and this was the first time I left her with ‘strangers’. My little Frida is very attached to me- but I had to pry her out of their house to bring her home after my trip. I found my people to watch my pup whenever I go out of town. Tannia and Chris were ‘strangers’ for all of about 10 seconds. They are now Frida’s home away from home- where I know I am leaving her with two caring and thoughtful dog lovers. 💕”
“The most amazing people we’ve ever worked with. Could not recommend someone better. Highly recommend working with them. Almost hate to leave a 5 star review, don’t want anyone else to steal them away lol! Excellent communication, updates, and keeping our puppy in his routine.”
“Wow!! This was my first time using the app and what can I say I’m beyond impressed. Katie and her family had made this such a wonderful experience I’m soo happy that I was able to be paired with such an amazing sitter for my “TEDDY”. Katie always communicated with me by sending me pictures and videos . Thank you soo much I will hope that we see you again ❤️”
“Chief loved his time with Andrew and Kaitlyn. It's such a relief to know you are leaving your pet (in our case an older one) in good hands. We would love to have them watch Chief again.”
“If I could give 10 stars I would, Cynthia was amazing with our dog(Santana the Bulldog), he was well kept in her home, well feed, she is amazing lady as well, very sweet and absolutely followed all of our instructions that we left with her. Santana felt right at home with her, she provided many pictures and sent texts messages everyday to keep us informed, I would recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and compassionate person to watch their fur baby, I will definitely call on her again, this will be Santana’s second home.”
“Andrea and David took perfect care of our dog Blue! They sent pictures, updates and videos throughout his stay. They also sent him home with a Polaroid picture of him and a blue bandana. Such sweet details that made me feel Blue was right at home. Will definitely use them again and would recommend to everyone!”
“Blanca is amazing! She has so much Love and care for both Cooper and his parents.... This was our first time using Rover.com and Blanca. We will definitely 💯 be rebooking with Blanca. 💜”
“Randy was hands on with all the dogs he had. He was great and I will recommend him to friends and I will always want Randy to pet sit my Annie! Thank you..???”
“Absolutely amazing pet sitting experience! My pets were happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for while I was away. Communication was excellent with regular updates and photos, which gave me complete peace of mind. Reliable, professional, and genuinely caring — I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy pet care. I’ll definitely be booking again.”
About: I treat every pet as if they were my own and strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I naturally connect with animals of all personalities, including shy, anxious, senior, and high energy pets. I believe every pet is unique, and I take the time to learn their routine, preferences, and individual needs. I have experience caring for: • Dogs of all sizes, breeds, and ages • Senior pets requiring extra patience and attention • Cats with a variety of personalities and care needs • Rabbits and other small animals • Pets requiring oral medications and routine care • High-energy pets that need exercise and enrichment I also volunteer with the Jacksonville Humane Society on weekends, where I continue learning about animal behavior, handling, and enrichment while helping care for shelter pets. More than simply feeding or walking pets, I focus on building trust and creating a calm, low stress environment so they feel secure and happy while you’re away. You’ll receive regular updates, photos, and clear communication throughout each visit, giving you peace of mind that your pet is receiving attentive and compassionate care. As a college student with a flexible schedule, pet care is one of my favorite ways to spend my free time. I enjoy staying active with dogs on walks and spending quiet time with cats and other small animals. My schedule allows me to be available throughout the week, including many evenings and weekends, and I do my best to accommodate last minute requests whenever possible. I’m organized, dependable, and committed to providing consistent, loving care that fits seamlessly into your pet’s routine. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, and it’s a rewarding part of my day. I live in a spacious apartment that provides plenty of room for pets to relax and feel comfortable during their stay. I also have a friendly pet rabbit who is accustomed to being around people and other animals. For the safety and comfort of all pets, my rabbit stays in his own private room whenever I am boarding or caring for another animal. My apartment community also has a fully fenced dog park where dogs can enjoy supervised off leash playtime and exercise. Safety is always my top priority, and I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, preferences, and any special needs to help them feel secure, loved, and at home while you’re away. I provide regular updates, photos, and open communication so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is receiving attentive and reliable care.
“Amelia was such a pleasure to work with! From the meet n greet and throughout her stay our pup was so happy! Amelia communicated with us as well as sent pictures throughout her stay! We can’t say enough about Amelia and the care she provided. We will definitely book with her again in the future!”
“This is the first time I have used Debra and I have NO REGRETS!!! The meets and greet went well and the one night stay for our mini labradoodle (Andy) went very well. Plenty of pictures and our Andy seemed to enjoy himself. She was attentive to our comments when we dropped the dog off and provided feedback when we picked up the dog. We have booked Debra to provided service for us for two weeks while we are away in February, we now have peace of mind concerning the care for our Andy. Thanks for the very professional service.”
“Eric & Yanqiu were so patient and loving with our newly adopted 2-year old pups. She was missing home the first couple of nights and they went above and beyond to make sure she was comfortable and felt loved. We loved all the pictures and updates! We are so appreciative of Eric & Yanqiu.”
“Alysia has taken care of our Frenchy several times and she has been very caring and diligent. Our dog feels comfortable at her home. She is highly recommended.”
About: I’ve been a passionate dog lover my entire life, and most of my expertise comes from the rewarding experience of raising my own two dogs from the time they were puppies. Because of this, I am incredibly comfortable with puppy energy, establishing routines, crate training, and positive reinforcement. In addition to caring for my own pets, I have experience housesitting and doing drop-in visits for friends and family. I know how stressful it can be to leave your furry family members behind, which is why I prioritize clear communication, daily updates, and plenty of love and attention. I treat every dog in my care with the exact same patience and dedication I give to my own! I am currently off work and at home full-time, which means your dog will have my undivided attention! My schedule is incredibly flexible, allowing me to easily maintain your pup's regular feeding, potty, and exercise routines. Because I'm home throughout the day, your dog will rarely be left alone and will get plenty of companionship, frequent bathroom breaks, and playtime. Safety is my top priority. My home features both a fully fenced-in front yard and a fenced-in backyard, providing plenty of secure, enclosed space for your dog to safely explore and play. Inside, I have two large crates available if your pup prefers or requires crating for meals, bedtime, or quiet time. I am highly experienced in managing a structured environment, and I strictly follow all of your specific care instructions to ensure total peace of mind.

“Jeweliana and Riley were awesome sitters for my two cats! They sent consistent updates during each visit, so I knew they were in good hands the whole stay. Highly recommend them!”
“Charlayda (Lay) was truly a blessing. My partner and I were driving down from New York and needed someone to sit for both our cats. Charlayda accommodated me and my partner on such short notice (and went above and beyond for us). One of my cats peed in their carrier bag and Charlayda cleaned not only my cats but the bag as well. What we loved most about Charlayda was how she kept us updated with text and pictures of our cats. It definitely eased our minds and we couldn’t have been happier. We will definitely be using Charlayda in the near future and I highly recommend her and her services. She’s very attentive, caring, and you can honestly tell she genuinely has a passion for animals. Thanks again for everything.”
“Ashley was not only extremely communicative she was amazing with our very shy cats. She sent us amazing pictures every day and showed them an exceptional level of care. We were so thankful to have her while we were gone.”
“Hailey was awesome! Looked forward to seeing her updates and photos every night while I was away, and she did a great job at making me feel reassured that my kitties were well taken care of!”
“Marilyn is such a great sitter for my Mason! He has some quirks when I’m out of town and she catered to all of them. He was so happy in the photos she sent.”
“I highly recommend Daisy! After our initial meet and greet, I felt very at ease leaving the care of my cat in her hands (especially with this being my first time ever using a pet sitter). She keeps great communication and responds very quickly to messages. I will definitely be seeking her services again in the future. Thank you so much!!”
“Alexis was literally so wonderful. We had a trip planned for months, and one of our cats was diagnosed with pneumonia right before we were set to leave. Alexis was comfortable administering medication, and sent such good updates about how everyone was doing. I was actually able to relax and focus on the tasks I needed to do on the trip. Will one hundred percent be recommending her to others!”
“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: I’ve loved cats my whole life and I think they’re are truly the best! I have three kitties - Dodo (8y, Siberian, adopted in 2021), Rexi (2y, shorthair, adopted in 2024) and Vision (1y, shorthair, rescued in 2025). I also take care of the stray cats in my neighborhood and participate in TNR (trap-neuter-release) programs. I often look after my friends cats when they are out of town. People love to say I’m a cat lady, and I take it as a compliment. Vision is blind so I have experience with taking care of cats with disabilities, as well as can give oral medication. I would love to take care of your kitties!
“Maggie was absolutely wonderful with my cats. She was an easy choice for me - she communicated professionally, was very cheery at our meet and greet, and listened intently to every detail I shared about my cats. She cared for my cats like they were her own! I highly recommend her!”

“Marsha was GREAT! I needed someone to check on my cats while I was on vacation and she did a great job cleaning litter, ensuring they had adequate food and water and keeping in touch with me. She has great experience with cats and I highly recommend Marsha and will definitely use her again!”
“I am so grateful for her services. She has been a blessing to me and my animals. She is honest and thorough and goes out of her way to make sure everyone is taken care of. She has a genuine love for animals.”
“Samantha is a very respectful and polite lady. She asked me some of the relevant information I forgot to mention and asked what I'd like her to do to make sure we had the same goal. She checked in and out when coming and going and provided me with how the dog did. Great pick!!”
“Emily was wonderful. She took care of my various outside cats and kittens. I will definitely be asking her to help out again in the future. She is very dependable.”

“This family is amazing at what they do. They are quick to respond to your booking request and they have accommodated me on several occasions when my schedule has changed. I couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter while I’m in Florida for the holidays. They send soooo many pictures and videos. It’s wonderful!”
“My doggy had a wonderful time with Charlayda, and it was so nice to hear from her every now and then! My dog isn’t used to sitter situations so we’re both so happy that he could have a good first experience with Charlayda and all her doggo’s she cares for! Very happpy with her service and communication”
“Katya was great! She stayed in contact and progress updates on how Smokey was doing! Smokey came home exhausted from all the fun and in great shape. Highly recommend! Thank you!”
“Wendy was very good with communication before and during my pup’s visit with her. She sent pictures while he was in her care and he seemed to have a fantastic time with her. My boy has a lot of energy and he was ready for rest after we got home, so I know she spent time playing with him❤️”
“Emma was great. Consistent communication and very accommodating. I was running a bit behind with pick up and she’s was quick to reassure me. I can tell Ellie had a blast with her and their dog Patrick. Highly recommend her care.”
About: I have had the joy of having dogs and cats as my companions my entire life! Including 2 painted turtles and fish. I've always had a love for animals and nature. I absolutely enjoy meeting new pet friends of all kinds. I have been pet sitting here in Jacksonville for 3 years now and have had the pleasure of caring for parrots, fish, cats, and dogs. A client of mine has a cat that needs medication as well as my own dog with allergies. I've done pet sitting for my own veterinarian's small farm with ducks, chickens, mini ponies, and mini donkey's as well. I now basic training as my own dog attended puppy classes at the K9 Obedience Club of Jacksonville. In my younger years, I worked in a veterinarian clinic for 2 years. I took a different path and started a career in the medical field in a sleep lab and am now getting back to what I truly love. Pet care! Either way, I have a nurturing nature and will treat your pets just like my own! I am a stay-at-home mom currently. I pick my daughter up from school weekly and am unavailable from 1pm-2:30pm due to the commute. Otherwise, I'm available to care for or play with your pet any other time during the week. I am available anytime on the weekends. I have a large fenced in yard with two friendly dogs for your pets to play with. I crate my own dogs and can do the same for yours if need be. I give my own dog medication for her allergies and can do the same for your own. I never leave outdoor play unattended as I do have a pool. If feeding time is needed, I separate all so as to not cause issues. I give lots of love and attention!
About: I've grown up my whole life around dogs and cats primarily. I currently have a German Shepherd who just turned one and a German Shepherd/Boarder Collie/Pit mix who's 3. I also have a cat that is diabetic and requires insulin twice a day. I've been working remote for the past 3 years. This allows me to take perfect care of your fur baby! This means unlimited access to outside for potty breaks or playing. My fiance also lives here and absolutely loves animals, one could argue more than me. She will make sure your animal is loved and cuddled if they're into that. I have a fenced in back yard with two larger dogs that will tire your fur baby out. As mentioned I work from home so I will be available all day to let your dog in and out as many times as it pleases and play with them until they're ready for a break (if they ever get tired, I know mine don't)

“Yekaterina and her family are amazing! They watched my 8 week old puppy whitney for several days and treated her like family. She sent videos and cute pictures throughout the day and the kids played with my pup and were so good to her. My puppy loved it at their house! 🩷💕”
“Chrissy and fam were great. Ellie was quick to warm up and by the second day, she was already pawing at their front door to go inside. Chrissy made sure I was up to date on her day and she was excellent at communication. Highly recommend and definitely will return once the occasion arises.”
“Hunnyhad an amazing day making new friends.. This was the best experience I have ever had being new to the area and I would most definitely recommend Marilyn if you want your baby safe and well taken care of. Hunny will only be going to Marilyn Q.”

I also have a cat (Jill) who was a part of a set found by my husband at a dumpster. I recently fostered a German Shephard (Smoki), but fell in love and added her to our family.

Whether it's a visit, a walk, or play I would love to help.
“Here for the weekend and wanted our boy to go have fun and meet new friends. Megan took great care of our boy, giving him treats, cuddle time on the couch watching tv, and was a perfect overall experience couldn't be happier! Will be back in Jacksonville on more work outings and will definitely bring him back!”

About: In my opinion, all dogs are puppies and should be pampered as such. A good foundation of commands is an important part of keep your dog safe at any age or size. I have an excellent handle of simple commands and leash etiquette. I am also comfortable with all ages, sizes, and special needs. I teach during the year, so my summer is wide-open to make sure your dog or cat is well taken care of. I don’t need a lot of notice. Our dog and two cats live together quite harmoniously. They love to play and snuggle. We have a large fenced in backyard and we crate our dog at night or when we are out of the house. Both our cats are indoor cats.

I have a long side walk to take long walks. I have a nice sided yard so they can run around and play. There will be other dogs around the area when we go on walks so they will have some type of interaction.
“Amazing would be an understatement. Maria’s love for dogs shined through from day one. My pet adored her, probably a little too much! Maria went above and beyond to help sit/walk my dog. She followed my instructions to the tee and helped bring packages in while I was away which was an added bonus to her awesomeness. Will definitely book with her in the future and encourage others to as well.”

“Wendy provided exceptional care for my baby, Chloe, and we will definitely be relying on her services again. She kept me updated with pictures and progress reports, gave Chloe a bath, and ensured her bedding was clean. I’m beyond pleased and incredibly grateful to have found a dog caregiver who truly loves and cares for dogs. Highly recommend!!!”
“Charlayda has been our sitter multiple times, this was the first time she watched both of our dogs, and she did an amazing job! Daily updates and photos, we love that she’s a safe space for our fur babies.”
“The most amazing people we’ve ever worked with. Could not recommend someone better. Highly recommend working with them. Almost hate to leave a 5 star review, don’t want anyone else to steal them away lol! Excellent communication, updates, and keeping our puppy in his routine.”
“If I could give 10 stars I would, Cynthia was amazing with our dog(Santana the Bulldog), he was well kept in her home, well feed, she is amazing lady as well, very sweet and absolutely followed all of our instructions that we left with her. Santana felt right at home with her, she provided many pictures and sent texts messages everyday to keep us informed, I would recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and compassionate person to watch their fur baby, I will definitely call on her again, this will be Santana’s second home.”
“Andrea and David took perfect care of our dog Blue! They sent pictures, updates and videos throughout his stay. They also sent him home with a Polaroid picture of him and a blue bandana. Such sweet details that made me feel Blue was right at home. Will definitely use them again and would recommend to everyone!”
“Absolutely amazing pet sitting experience! My pets were happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for while I was away. Communication was excellent with regular updates and photos, which gave me complete peace of mind. Reliable, professional, and genuinely caring — I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy pet care. I’ll definitely be booking again.”
About: I treat every pet as if they were my own and strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I naturally connect with animals of all personalities, including shy, anxious, senior, and high energy pets. I believe every pet is unique, and I take the time to learn their routine, preferences, and individual needs. I have experience caring for: • Dogs of all sizes, breeds, and ages • Senior pets requiring extra patience and attention • Cats with a variety of personalities and care needs • Rabbits and other small animals • Pets requiring oral medications and routine care • High-energy pets that need exercise and enrichment I also volunteer with the Jacksonville Humane Society on weekends, where I continue learning about animal behavior, handling, and enrichment while helping care for shelter pets. More than simply feeding or walking pets, I focus on building trust and creating a calm, low stress environment so they feel secure and happy while you’re away. You’ll receive regular updates, photos, and clear communication throughout each visit, giving you peace of mind that your pet is receiving attentive and compassionate care. As a college student with a flexible schedule, pet care is one of my favorite ways to spend my free time. I enjoy staying active with dogs on walks and spending quiet time with cats and other small animals. My schedule allows me to be available throughout the week, including many evenings and weekends, and I do my best to accommodate last minute requests whenever possible. I’m organized, dependable, and committed to providing consistent, loving care that fits seamlessly into your pet’s routine. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, and it’s a rewarding part of my day. I live in a spacious apartment that provides plenty of room for pets to relax and feel comfortable during their stay. I also have a friendly pet rabbit who is accustomed to being around people and other animals. For the safety and comfort of all pets, my rabbit stays in his own private room whenever I am boarding or caring for another animal. My apartment community also has a fully fenced dog park where dogs can enjoy supervised off leash playtime and exercise. Safety is always my top priority, and I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, preferences, and any special needs to help them feel secure, loved, and at home while you’re away. I provide regular updates, photos, and open communication so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is receiving attentive and reliable care.
“Amelia was such a pleasure to work with! From the meet n greet and throughout her stay our pup was so happy! Amelia communicated with us as well as sent pictures throughout her stay! We can’t say enough about Amelia and the care she provided. We will definitely book with her again in the future!”
“This is the first time I have used Debra and I have NO REGRETS!!! The meets and greet went well and the one night stay for our mini labradoodle (Andy) went very well. Plenty of pictures and our Andy seemed to enjoy himself. She was attentive to our comments when we dropped the dog off and provided feedback when we picked up the dog. We have booked Debra to provided service for us for two weeks while we are away in February, we now have peace of mind concerning the care for our Andy. Thanks for the very professional service.”
“Alysia has taken care of our Frenchy several times and she has been very caring and diligent. Our dog feels comfortable at her home. She is highly recommended.”
About: I’ve been a passionate dog lover my entire life, and most of my expertise comes from the rewarding experience of raising my own two dogs from the time they were puppies. Because of this, I am incredibly comfortable with puppy energy, establishing routines, crate training, and positive reinforcement. In addition to caring for my own pets, I have experience housesitting and doing drop-in visits for friends and family. I know how stressful it can be to leave your furry family members behind, which is why I prioritize clear communication, daily updates, and plenty of love and attention. I treat every dog in my care with the exact same patience and dedication I give to my own! I am currently off work and at home full-time, which means your dog will have my undivided attention! My schedule is incredibly flexible, allowing me to easily maintain your pup's regular feeding, potty, and exercise routines. Because I'm home throughout the day, your dog will rarely be left alone and will get plenty of companionship, frequent bathroom breaks, and playtime. Safety is my top priority. My home features both a fully fenced-in front yard and a fenced-in backyard, providing plenty of secure, enclosed space for your dog to safely explore and play. Inside, I have two large crates available if your pup prefers or requires crating for meals, bedtime, or quiet time. I am highly experienced in managing a structured environment, and I strictly follow all of your specific care instructions to ensure total peace of mind.
“Kaitland did a wonderful job caring for our elderly dog, Prim. She gave her a variety of daily meds and Prim came home happy and calm. Great experience!”
“We couldn’t be happier with the care Marilyn and her family gave to our three dog. From the very beginning, they made us feel comfortable and confident that our pups were in great hands. Marilyn treated them like part of her own family, giving them plenty of love, attention, and playtime. It was clear that our dogs felt right at home, and we appreciated the updates that kept us connected while we were away. Knowing that Duppy, Osito, and Kataluna were safe, happy, and well cared for gave us such peace of mind. We are so grateful to Marilyn and her family for their kindness and dedication. We highly recommend them to anyone looking for a trustworthy, loving sitter!”
“Fantastic couple! Made our trip so much more relaxing knowing Cherry was in great hands! They sent so many awesome pics and messages throughout her stay that let me know we’d made the best choice. We will definitely rebook with them!”
“Kelly was great! She took good care of my frenchie. She provided daily updates and pictures of my dog during his stay. I am very satisfied with the service provided. Thanks you, Kelly!”
“This was the first time I’ve used a Rover to care for my dog Oaklie. Brenda, the rover, was absolutely fantastic. She took fabulous care of Oaklie taking him on walks, playing with him and cuddling with him. He really enjoyed her fenced in yard as well. He also got along very nicely with her dog and her daughter. She kept me informed of how Oaklie was doing each day. She sent me numerous pictures and I could see how happy he was. Brenda was very trustworthy with him and took great care of him. I am definitely using her again.”
“Our 2 adult pups were well cared for by Adriana while we were away. She kept us updated to their daily activities with both photos and videos. Our lab mix really enjoyed escaping the July heat with dips in the pool. We would definitely consider booking with Adriana again in the future!”
“Marlena and her husband took care of our puppy as if she was an extended part of their family. We are so thankful that we were able to relax and enjoy our vacation and not worry about whether she was okay. We got many pictures and updates of our baby running around and living her best life. Now she's exhausted from her vacation and snoring on the couch! We will definitely use Marlena anytime we need a sitter.”
