About: I owned a huge Malamute/Lab rescue who ended up rescuing me. I miss being around animals. I will take my time in walking and spending time with your furry family member. I just moved here from Brooklyn NY. I walked miles upon miles in the snow and rain with my Dog. I enjoy being outdoors. I have been a dental Assistant for the past 30 years, I’m more than capable in keeping calm in a tense situation. Our Dental practice was pet friendly. I was the person in charge of handling all of the pets. I had a Great Dane panic at the sound of the drill, I soothed him throughout the appointment. I’m also a trained Dog Walker. I volunteer at the Jacksonville Humane Society a few days a week. I’m looking forward to helping out families that need an extra hand.

“Laura was great. I was nervous about leaving Bella and she assured me she would be fine. Bella warmed right up and they had a great first day. I received pictures and videos of how Bella was doing throughout the day.”
“Delaney was so amazing with my 1 yr old Labradoodle. This was our first time with her and, right from my initial request, she made us so comfortable, taking into consideration all our requests and information regarding my anxious and sensitive pup! We had some very specific requests as our dog recently had surgery, and after our meet and greet, I knew we had found just the right person! She kept us updated throughout the day and sent lots of pictures and videos. Thank you so much! We will be booking again soon.”
“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!”

“As a first-time dog owner, I wasn't sure what to expect from a dog sitter. The moment we walked into Maria's home our dog (who barks at EVERYONE) didn't make a sound, I knew we were in good hands. That alone gave us so much reassurance that he was with the right person. Maria was professional, caring, and clearly has a natural way with dogs. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her, and we'll definitely be using her services again!”
About: Hello, I'm Maya! And that handsome model you see on my profile is Kash'Money Jones, my 4 year old Labrador. He is great with all dogs and offers a great opportunity for socialization and group play! I've taken care of multiple dog breeds and sizes over the course of 7 years, my experience allows me to provide the safest care to your furbabies. Being a dog owner myself, dogs are my passion. My main objective is the safety and enjoyment of your pets, I'm so excited to offer my pet sitting services again and I'm excited for us to board with us!

Kash and I live in beautiful apartment homes on Southside Jax. Our home is clean, comfy, and spacious! The apartments are "garden-style" which means beautiful, naturistic scenery for your furbuddies to walk and romp. The entire area is pedestrian friendly with many sidewalks, crosswalks, and grassy areas great for sniffing. It does come with a wonderful dog park, however, I do not take Clients to the park unless requested as it can pose an unnecessary safety and health hazard.

“Millie did great with my little one! He was immediately comfortable with her. This was my first time using Rover so I was very nervous leaving him with a complete stranger. She provided me pictures of him enjoying his stay. When I return to this area I will definitely bring my Fudge to Millie instead of boarding him at home now that I know he has a safe, clean and comfortable home to stay in. I recommend Millie 100%!”

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of experience caring for both cats and dogs. I have my own cat and have grown up with dogs ever since I was little. I also dog-sat for friends and neighbors throughout high school and college. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I take pride in providing patient, loving, and reliable care so your pet feels safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I work a full time 8-5 job and am available to check on your pet during my lunch hour (if close enough), after 5pm and on weekends! I care for pets by following their usual routines as closely as possible to keep them comfortable and stress-free. In a client’s home, I make sure pets are fed on schedule, have fresh water, receive plenty of attention, and get exercise or playtime based on their needs. For dogs, this includes walks, outdoor time, and play, while for cats I focus on feeding, litter box care, play, and quiet companionship.

About: Caring for animals has been a part of my life since I was a kiddo. This is a new venture for me with Rover specifically, but I’m excited to get started. My goal is to be sure your pup(s) feel happy and at ease, comfortable, protected, spoiled, fun and playful, having a day that mirrors the day as if they were with you. It’s important for them to be excited to see you as if nothing was different for them. I have extensive experience with all ages, sizes and breeds of dogs, as well as other animals. I’m able to give medications, work with special needs, basic training, seniors and babies, I will be present and attentive to their needs, following your guidelines. I’m excited about this new adventure and appreciate the opportunity. My availability is wide open and I’m looking to establish a continuous opportunity for folks and their pets. I’m available for daily/weekly sitting, drop-in’s, walking, and extended or scheduled times. It’s important to me for your fur baby to feel comfortable with me, trusting and at ease. I will always follow your guidelines, suggestions and instructions with handling, walking, playing, crating, treats, food, medications, whatever is needed and expected. I will reach out if there’s questions on any issue. I am committed and ‘present’ while caring for your special pet. I appreciate the opportunity.
About: I specialize in high energy and high anxiety dogs. I have taken care of dogs of many ages from puppies to seniors. I currently don’t have pets of my own but I grew up and have owned dogs and cats throughout my life. My work schedule is flexiable and I make my own hours. I would work with the client and see what are their needs and I would tailor my schedule based around that. I will build trust with the pet first. Follow instructions of the client and work with the pet and make sure it’s needs are taken care off.
About: Hi, I’m Grace — a pet care professional who works at a dog facility, with hands-on experience in grooming, boarding, kenneling, and daycare. Rover is something I do on the side, because honestly, one job’s worth of animals just isn’t enough for me. Senior dogs and anxious pets hold a special place in my heart. I’ve cared for animals with complex daily routines, multiple medications, scheduled feedings, and extra TLC, and I treat every one like they’re my own. Finding someone your babies can truly relax with matters, and that’s something I take to heart with every visit. As a cat mom myself, patience and attentiveness just come naturally to me. I’d love to meet your fur baby and learn what makes them feel at home — don’t hesitate to reach out! I currently work part time at a pet care facility, and my schedule is flexible! I’m available for overnight or drop in visits- whichever works best for your pets! I care for each and every pet as if they were my own babies! Being away from your pet is hard for you and them, so I do my very best to keep you up to date and make sure they’re happy and healthy while you’re gone :)

About: Having three dogs of my own, trust me i get it! I've been helping friends and neighbors since i was thirteen. Ranging from cuddly Retrievers to hyperactive Pit bulls, I've had the chance to hang with all different breeds. I am currently out of college for the summer and have already started dog sitting for some friends, I would love to add more pets to my schedule. Thanks to my open schedule, I will have plenty of time to get to know your cuddly companions! I like to walk my dogs in a familiar area so they feel comfortable as well as everyone else. I'm always equip with a water bowl, doggy bags and a few treats to reward good behavior. If I'm doing drop-ins, I like to stay and do some activity with the pets to make sure their staying active and happy.

About: I've grown up with cats, and have been a personal pet sitter for the past couple of years in my local neighborhood. I previously worked at a dog daycare/boarding business and have learned many different skills with dogs. I also used to have a foster dog whom I was able to train and care for continuously for 6 months. I am currently a full-time student at UNF, but have pretty open availability. I am mostly looking to help out within clients' homes, whether it's walking your dog and/or letting them out to play, or just stopping in to check on your cat! I am fully dedicated to caring for all your pets! I love animals and will do whatever it takes to give them the love and attention they need!

About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats my whole life. I’m a great balance between active and just keeping company - from puppies/kittens to senior pets I work weekday mornings but am free after 1pm daily and all day Wednesday and Sunday — plenty of time for walks, drop-ins, overnight care, or just hanging out with pets. I live in a pet-free apartment in a safe, walkable neighborhood with access to a nearby dog park. I share the space with a pet-loving roommate, and we both enjoy spending time with animals. Whether in my home or yours, I focus on keeping pets comfortable, relaxed, and cared for with lots of attention and companionship.
