“Vigi and family were wonderful and my Harley was nothing but happy with them. I will be booking for any future boarding and daycare as long as they are available. Highly recommend them for your fur babies!”
“Katlyn is kind, attentive, and a great communicator. She did a great job caring for our small dog and handled his fear of the fireworks and thunder with compassion. Highly recommend.”
“Tannia and Chris were spectacular with Shiraz! She acclimated in no time, they showered her with affection while also respected her space as she grew used to them. She was at home and jumping up to sit on their laps in no time. Tannia kept me up to date all the time, sent me pictures and video and was available to chat or talk whenever I reached out. I felt like we left our pup with friends who loved and cared for her the way we would have. Their dog Domi is a sweetheart too. I will definitely be a repeat customer whenever I need to board Shiraz overnight!”
“Hannah is so patient and kind. She made sure Ellie was happy and healthy during her stay, went above and beyond in her care, and was very communicative with me. I highly recommend her for any pup, especially if you need special accommodations for medical or behavioral issues.”
“Brad was amazing! My dog Blanca enjoyed her time and was very happy staying with Brad. When we have a need again we will certainly use Brad. We highly recommend Brad!”
“It was my first time using this Rover app for my puppy and I have to say Blanca was amazing with my puppy Nori. Definitely will be calling her again . She was very loving towards her and my puppy seemed very happy.”
“Travis did another great job caring for Klaebo and Kelsey, which can be challenging with medication and other needs. We really appreciate how Travis sends nightly pictures and updates, the dogs seem genuinely happy. He is very patient and caring with our dogs and we really appreciate it.”
“Five stars! Maria was absolutely wonderful with my dog, Olaf. From the moment I dropped him off, Maria was incredibly attentive and kept me updated throughout his stay with regular communication, including adorable videos and pictures. It was so comforting to see Olaf happy and well-cared for. They even went above and beyond by taking him for walks and including him in their weekend picnic plans! It's clear they truly love dogs and treat them like their own. I will absolutely be contacting Ryan and Maria again whenever I'm in the area – I highly recommend their dog-watching services!”
“Yekaterina is the BEST! I always feel comfortable having our fur baby stay with her when we travel. She is so warm and I can tell she just loves our little Ivy 🐕”
“She was very attentive, always responded quickly, and kept me informed the entire time. Most importantly, my dog Milo came back happy and very calm. I would definitely leave him with her again!”
“Kaitlyn and Andrew are the best! They sent regular updates and pictures of our Lucy. As much as we miss her when we’re away we at least didn’t have to worry about her at all. We could tell that she was well loved and made herself right at home 😊”
“I’m so grateful I came across Daisy and her family. They watched my dog over the weekend and took amazing care of her. It was clear she was treated like part of the family, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. Daisy kept me updated, and I could tell my dog was happy and well cared for. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!”
“Maria is the best. My Lucy is with family when she stays with Maria. Just the fact that Lucy cries of happiness when she sees Maria, says it all. Her love for pets is evident. Her care goes above and beyond.”
“We are so happy with our decision to leave George with Katie while we were overseas for our wedding for 2 weeks. It was obvious he was extremely happy in her care and alongside her dog, Maggie! She shared pictures and updates throughout the stay to keep us updated. It was nice knowing our dog George was having his own mini vacation while we were away missing him. 10/10 and will book with Katie again.”
“Such a great sitter for my dog! HIGHLY RECOMMEND! She took lots of pictures of my dog and he seemed very happy and well cared for. She took him of many walks and kept me updated on him.”
“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!”
“When you find sitters that are "above and beyond ordinary", its difficult to sum things up in a few words. Delaney and her fiancee was absolutely superb. For this to be our first encounter, I felt a sense of peace with caring for my 4-legged baby, Tim. They were inviting and very accommodating. Im glad to know that Tim has adopted Rover parents in 2 cities, Orlando (Caylie and Jacob) and now in Jacksonville with an added bonus sister, Ivy. As a protective dog mum, I would highly recommend Delaney. Just remember that Tim gets first dibs (LoL).”

“Deborah was amazing! I always get so nervous leaving my cats because I work from home so I'm with them all the time but she put me at ease with pictures and being prompt on time. I look forward to booking with her again!”
“Hannah was really great with my cat! Always kept me up to date on when she would be going over and it gave me a sense of relief knowing someone would be with my cat while I was away for Thanksgiving!”
About: I’ve had pets all my life. From guinea pigs to chihuahuas to pitties. I’ve yet to meet an animal I didn’t like and I don’t plan to ever. I spend time volunteering at the local Humane Society to learn how to better care for animals like yours. I’m a full time student looking to make most of my income here on Rover. I also spend a few hours a week at the Humane Society. I've had animals as long as I've been self-aware. My family dogs include a senior chihuahua and a 7 year old pittie. At home, my family includes two kitties, Moomin (5) and Toro (1), who are both from the Jacksonville Humane Society! They are my pride and joy and I consider them my sons. I work well with all pets. Doesn’t matter if they’re skittish or energetic. Please do not hesitate to let me know the specifics of your pet’s care needs. It is my duty to cater to their personality! Additionally, I will be sure to send lots of pictures to update you while you’re away.
“Shera took great care of my cat while I was away. She was flexible with the drop in visits and saved me by coming one more day after I missed my flight!”
“Erin was great. I loved the pictures and updates. Louie loved her. He can be shy at times, but he seemed to warm up to her right away, which was awesome and reassuring that Erin was a great choice.”
“Alivia is a true pet sitter - professional, communicative, and great with animals. I booked her for drop-in services for my cat Belle while I was away for five days and couldn't be more satisfied with her services. Alivia's visits were timely and she consistently sent photos and videos throughout the booking. She made sure Belle was not only fed, but had 30 minutes of playtime and interaction during each visit (Belle LOVED the laser! LoL) . This was my first time booking a sitter through Rover and I genuinely felt my cat was in good hands while I was away. Belle also approves!😊 I plan to book Alivia again soon!”
“Iva spoiled and loved up on my cats so much that I returned home after 6 days to relaxed cats who could care less that I was back. She took lots of photos, gave detailed report cards, and was always quick to communicate. 10/10 pet sitter and I would recommend her to anyone. Thank you for everything!”
“Katlyn was great! Very responsive, accommodating, and was able to help us last minute while we were out of town. She sent photos and gave updates and our boy was very appreciative of her help!”
“Margaret is the BEST <3 her messages and check ins are so funny and comforting, especially on days I miss my cat the most. I’m so thankful to her consistency and care and have already pre-booked her for more dates.”
“Ruby did an awesome job taking care of our Theo while we were away on vacation. She spent time with him morning and night feeding him his meals, giving him some treats and love while we were gone.”
“Aaliyah was AMAZING!!! My cat, Mopsy, loved her and she can me timid with new people. Aaliyah gave Mopsy time to get comfortable around her, and sent me so many photos and videos! She was on time and even stayed extra since she loved Mopsy so much! She is an amazing sitter and I will 1000% use her again and recommend her to anyone!”
“Ruth was AMAZING! She went above and beyond to provide the best care for my kitty. He felt so comfortable and safe with her. I loved the detailed notes, pictures, and videos she sent. Thank you so much, Ruth!”
About: Hi, My name is Sydney S. I'm 25 years old and recently graduated with my Master's degree in Speech-Language Pathology from Francis Marion University in Florence, SC. Originally from Albany, OH, I spent 22 years there and graduated from Alexander High School. I have recently relocated to Jacksonville for a Speech Pathology position at Greater Strides Rehabilitation. Animals have always been a big part of my life; I have about 20 years of experience caring for them. My family has two cats named Tuesday and Regean, and two dogs named Sam and Kong. I have a 4-year-old dog named Niles, who lives with me at my apartment. My pet-sitting experience includes dogs, cats, lizards, rabbits, snakes, and hamsters. I'm excited about this new chapter in my career and life in Jacksonville. Thank you for considering my application. I look forward to the opportunity to connect soon. As a Speech Pathologist with a regular Monday to Friday work schedule, I can dedicate my early mornings, evenings, and weekends to pet care. I'm comfortable with a variety of tasks like feeding, administering medication, and providing exercise and playtime. My flexible schedule allows me to give pets the attention they need while their owners are away. I'm also happy to send updates and photos to keep owners informed about their pets' day. I enjoy spending time with animals and find pet care to be a rewarding way to supplement my income. Whether in my home or the client's home, I prioritize providing a safe, comfortable environment for pets. In my apartment, Niles my 4-year-old dog keeps me company. I can accommodate dogs and cats, and potentially small caged pets. I have pet beds, toys, and supplies available. In the client's home, I respect their space and routines. I'll follow their instructions for feeding, medication, and exercise. I'm comfortable with mail collection, plant watering, and light housekeeping to keep the home secure and tidy. I'll send updates about the pet's day and be available for any concerns. My goal is to give pets the care they need and owners peace of mind while they're away. I'm flexible and want to work with each client to create a custom plan that works best for them and their pets.
“Sara was great watching my cat! I was traveling internationally and she did a wonderful job maintaining good communication through the opposite time zones and caring for the needs of my pet. She was very flexible and is a trustworthy person to let in your home. Would recommend!”
About: Growing up in a family with dogs, I have spent my entire life learning about, playing with, and loving on all breeds. I have developed a deep foundation of knowledge for most dog breeds and understand their unique activity levels and temperament. I work a hybrid schedule so I will be working from home twice a week. Whether we're just hanging around my 3 bedroom apartment, going on frequent walks outside, or going to the dog park that's within 20 feet of my front door, your pet will feel right at home with me. I work full time but on a hybrid schedule, so I'm able to work from home twice a week. On days that I am home, I'm able to provide frequent walks and playtime at the dog park. I have crates for comfort and safety when I'm away if needed. If your pet is not crate trained, I can enclose them in a bedroom for safety, or let them roam freely in the apartment. Pets are welcome on the furniture.

“I am so happy I found Travis! My dog Darren absolutely adores him. Travis went above and beyond, sending me daily updates and pictures that gave me such peace of mind. I could truly trust him with Darren and knew he was in the best hands. It’s clear he genuinely cares, and that made all the difference. Highly recommend!”
“Tannia and Chris went above and beyond my expectations when caring for my senior girl. They are very accommodating and their knowledge of animals is impressive. They took alot of time listening to my concerns/instructions and followed them carefully. Thank you guys for loving on and caring for my baby.”
“Marisa and her family are the best! We felt totally comfortable leaving Zoey in their care. Our anxious dog had a great day. We.look forward to more visits! Thanks, Marisa, for the pictures and videos throughout the day. We appreciate you!”
“Alexis did a wonderful job putting my heart at ease with my pups. I have a special needs pup and they took him in without hesitation!! Can’t wait to use Alexis again over the long weekend!! Thank you!”
“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.”
“Cookie had the best time with Maria! She was really nice and made us all feel very confident about leaving him in her house (which is super nice and clean and super pet -friendly) She sent me pictures and videos of Cookie frequently and sent me updates all the time and I could see from the videos that he felt right at home.We can’t wait to book house sitting and boarding again 😊”
“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!”
“We were so pleased with Cody and Angel's care. They love staying with Amy and her doggy's. We are very happy . Amy is wonderful looking forward to using the service with Amy alot in the future.”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs and other pets for years and truly love spending time with animals of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply a calm and comfortable environment, I’ll make sure they receive personalized care and plenty of attention. I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust with your furry family member, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. My goal is to keep them safe, happy, loved, and comfortable while giving you peace of mind that they’re in great hands. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I work from home, so I’m able to provide pets with plenty of attention, companionship, potty breaks, and playtime throughout the day. I have a friendly 2-year-old pug who loves meeting new friends, a fully fenced backyard for safe outdoor play, and a walking trail right outside my neighborhood for daily walks and exercise. I enjoy making sure every pet feels safe, loved, and right at home while they’re in my care. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I have a secure, fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely play and explore under supervision. My home is clean, pet-friendly, and provides a calm environment where your dog can relax. I have a friendly 2-year-old pug who enjoys the company of other dogs, but I always introduce pets gradually to ensure everyone is comfortable. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, medications, exercise, and routines, and I’m happy to crate your dog if that’s part of their normal schedule. I’ll also keep you updated with regular photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
“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: We’re lifelong animal lovers who have always had a home full of pets. We grew up caring for multiple dogs and cats and truly can’t imagine life without animals. Our home is a pro-animal household where pets are treated like family, and we absolutely adore every furry friend we meet. We’re the people our friends and family trust when they need someone to care for their pets, whether it’s boarding in our home or drop-in visits. We have experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages and personalities, and we’ve also looked after hamsters, guinea pigs, and sugar gliders. We know every pet has their own routine and unique needs, so we take the time to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, cuddle sessions, or simply keeping them company, we’ll care for your pets as if they were our own. As business owners, we have a flexible schedule that allows us to truly accommodate your pets’ needs. Whether that means working from home to keep them company, adjusting our meetings to make time for walks and playtime, or making sure they get plenty of love and cuddles throughout the day — we’re happy to make it happen. We understand that every pet has their own routine and needs, and we love being able to provide the extra attention and care that helps them feel comfortable while you’re away. Your pets aren’t just a job to us — they’re part of the family. 🐾 We have two kitty cats of our own, Taffy and Maple, who are both friendly and loved members of our family. While they are very social, we understand that every pet has their own comfort level, so during in-home boarding we make sure to keep pets separated when needed to prevent any stress or issues and to ensure everyone feels safe and comfortable. We are a smoke-free household and take pride in keeping our home clean, safe, and welcoming for all pets. We make sure our space is pet-friendly and that every animal in our care receives the love, attention, and respect they deserve. 🐾
“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.”
About: I have always grown up and been around dogs and cats. I grew up with big dog breeds and they will always hold my heart, but I currently have a small dog who I love like a human child haha. I’ve been around and helped train puppies and also have experience with older doggies. I accept and love all shapes, sizes, ages, and breeds. I have a full time remote job , so I am always home! I may go to the gym for an hour but I am never more than 20 minutes away from my house. I have time during my day for long walks and even longer cuddle sessions. I have a larger apartment so accommodate any size doggo and my own small pup to offer some company to yours! I also love to be outside and go on walks so there is no shortage of outside time.
“Millie took wonderful care of my pup, PuPu! I’m usually nervous about leaving him with someone new since he has separation anxiety, but she really put my mind at ease. Her lovely outdoor space was perfect for the dogs, and she sent pictures of PuPu having fun with her dog, Toby. When I picked him up, he looked happy, relaxed, and clearly had a great time. I would absolutely recommend Millie and will definitely book with her again!”
About: When you board with us, your pet gets more than a place to stay, your pet gets a family to be a part of. We are a family of 6 humans, 1 dog, and 5 chickens and 2 ducks. Your pet will have plenty of playmates! I am a single mother who works from home. I drop off and pick up my kids from school, and run the occasional errand, but usually I am home. I enjoy an evening walk with my chocolate lab and would love your pet to join us. I have a fully fenced, large backyard. I also have two extra crates if your dog is crate-trained and feels more comfortable sleeping in a crate. Pets being on furniture is discouraged, but rarely enforced. I have an SUV and am willing to transport pets if needed.
“Excellent!!! Fozzie's behavior when I picked him up spoke for the great time he had. Fozzie said hi to me in usual happy fashion, yet did not want to leave. Normally, Fozzie is ready to leave wherever he is and doesn't speak to me. He actually ignores me until we get into the car. Her big brown lab was a sweet heart and her cats let Fozzie sniff them, too. Adriana, welcomed me all the way inside her home. The living room was set up for a place for pets to lay & relax; there were multiple cushions on the floor. Her back yard is fenced with ample room for running & playing, with a good size pool for pup swimming. When I came in to pick him up, she didn't rush me out. I bonded with the big guy with lots of rubbing & scratching; Fozzie wasn't his usual jealous self, getting between me and the pet I was petting. This was a very unique experience; it was great. Anytime we are in Jacksonville, FL, I know where Fozzie is going.”
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! I work full time as a remote Social Services Coordinator. What this means for you is the I am home and available M-F and S-S 24/7 to provide reliable and loving care to your pets while you take care of weekly responsibilities! My work from home position provides great flexibility for walks and playtime all throughout the day. Your furbaby will have fun here, guaranteed! 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.
“Tyler was SO great. She sent updates throughout the day and was so sweet towards my pup, Ted! He had such a good time with the other pups that were there and he came back happy and TIRED. Thank you Tyler, for being so accommodating and caring. Ted will definitely be back! ❤️🐶”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and in college I used to volunteer and foster cats/dogs. My partner was a dog trainer prior to joining the service, so I’ve also learned a lot from him, too. My husband and I have a Belgian Malinois puppy that we are training. During the pandemic, I impulsively adopted my cat, Remi! He is my literal baby and I am very meticulous about the care I give him and people I trust to care for him when I’m away. I’d be happy to provide services to you and your furry family member(s). You can be sure I will treat your animals with kindness, love, and care just as I do my own. This is a side-job for me as my full time job is working in foster care. I have the ability to work from home M/W and can be flexible during the week with advance notice. I worked in foster care and typically WFH M/W. Throughout the week, I’m in the field or at my office, but I can be flexible with my schedule with advance notice. I’m available almost all of the time unless already booked. Advance notice is very much appreciated, even if you “maybe” have plans! I love giving priority to my repeat clients, as well. 😊 During drop in visits, I always ensure to follow all specific instructions and be as respectful to the home as possible (e.g., not leaving a mess or lights on, etc.). I also try my best to take quality photos and specific updates, if applicable! Also, my partner trained dogs prior to joining the service, so he will sometimes tag along with me if you are comfortable with this!

“Deborah has been amazing with my dog! I’ve been using her for over two months now and she is always on time, keeps me updated, always takes pictures of my pup during the play! I’m so happy she is our walker. My pup always seems happy in the pictures and enjoying himself!”
About: I’ve had pets all my life. From guinea pigs to chihuahuas to pitties. I’ve yet to meet an animal I didn’t like and I don’t plan to ever.

About: Ever since I was little, I have a huge heart for dogs. It wasn’t until I was 10 that I finally had a family dog, and from then on dogs have always been a part of my life. I’ve done personal dog-sitting on and off for a few years for some friends and family and I’ve always really enjoyed it. I did Rover a few years ago and loved it, but life got a bit crazy so I had to pause it. I was still able to consistently dogsit for some repeat customers these last few years, and now my wife Linsey joins me in that! Your dog can expect walks at the park or in our neighborhood and for my home to be their home. If your dog likes play dates, my Rover friends would certainly be about it! My normal job is pretty flexible on where I can work, so if your dog needs extra attention, working from home is totally doable. Between me and Linsey, at least one of us is always home. I’ve done Rover on and off for the last 8 years, and have really enjoyed it! My job is super flexible, with set hours only 2 nights a week and once during the day. I’m mostly working from home or at coffee shops, so it’s super easy to stay home with a dog. Between me and my wife, someone can pretty much always be with your pet. Our home is your dog’s home. If they want to go on the couch or follow us around, by all mean. If they like their space, I’ll give them space. Many dogs have taken a snooze on our couch, legs in the air.
About: My siblings would ask me to babysit their dogs while they were away, and I always made it a point to leave their homes as I found it. I’ve worked in childcare and taught karate for three years now (not saying is the same thing) so your pet will be receiving the attention and play they need. Karate lessons too if they’d like🙌! I work part time at a martial arts school. Tuesday and Thursday nights I am working for certain. Throughout the day I’m available to walk/babysit/etc. I have work on my laptop so I can take whatever I need to a home and house sit at the same time. I always want to keep an eye on them, making frequent checks to see how they’re doing. I’d like to be informed of any quirks or habits I should be aware of so the pet is comfortable and receives the best care possible. If they want to play, I’m so ready to play!
“Hannah did a great job with my girls. She sent me pictures and followed my care instructions very well. My girls loved her and we'll definitely be calling on Hannah again in the future.”
“Aaliyah was wonderful and communicative throughout. Evie loved her and was a much happier dog when I came home from work. My cat loved her too. Going to be having Aaliyah over much more often to help with the pooch.”
“This was my first time using rover and Iva did an amazing job of reassuring me and making me feel comfortable having her be in my home and around my precious guy hank. I will 100% be booking with her in the future!”
About: The best part of using Rover for me was the fun pictures of my pup playing I would get from the sitters. So as a sitter, I absolutely love providing you with the best action shots I can get of your little fur baby having a great time while you do the same!! I can send them home with a fresh wash and brush for $40! I have a flexible schedule. I live in an apartment but my complex has a large and small dog park right in front of it. Plenty of play time. Only keep 1-2 pups at a time. Small dogs ONLY (20 pounds and below) Dogs get lots of attention and petting and snuggles around here and I love taking pictures so you’ll get lots of those as well.
“Alivia was great, she was very nice and kind to my dog max he definitely enjoyed going for his walk with her, She follow instructions very well and was also very flexible with max I definitely recommend her and I’ll definitely will continue booking her.”
“Haleigh has been walking my dog for awhile now and has been so wonderful! My dog looks so happy in the photos she sends, and I feel so comfortable with her watching him. She sends updated throughout their walk, which I apprentice so much. Highly recommend booking with Haleigh!”
About: I have dog-sat for pets of different sizes, breeds, and temperaments for about 10 years now. I have walked, house-sat, or boarded pets for many friends and families, and I have loved caring for these sweet furry friends! I also volunteer at the Jacksonville Humane Society with their "dog's day out" program and walk dogs through that! I have experience with medically complex animals through fostering, and I am also comfortable with administering medications when needed. I myself am a dog-mom to a 3-year-old bichon-poodle mix, so I understand how important it is to make sure your pets are in good hands! I understand that all pets are different, and I am happy to do whatever is needed to fit you and your pet's needs. I am a college student, and my class schedule leaves plenty of time to play with your sweet puppies! I am available mornings and evenings most days, and all day Friday, Saturday, and Sunday! I can do overnight care and I can work with your schedule :) At each home I set for, I make sure that everything that you need for your pet is met and exceeded! The safety of your pet and home will be my top priority. I can take your pup on long or short walks or runs depending on energy level. It is important to me that you have peace of mind when you are not at home, so I am happy to send updates and photos!
About: I have six months of professional dog walking experience in New York, where I received in-person training on safely walking and caring for dogs. I have also walked and cared for dogs belonging to friends and family. I will treat your pets with the same care and attention I give my own. I’m dependable, attentive, and happy to follow any instructions you provide so your pet feels safe and comfortable. I have a flexible schedule and availability throughout the week, including weekdays and weekends. I can accommodate morning, afternoon, or evening walks and drop-in visits, as well as recurring bookings. Your pet’s safety is always my priority. During walks, I stay aware of our surroundings and use secure leash handling. I will follow your instructions closely and communicate with you about how your pet is doing. I understand that every pet has different needs, and I will take the time to help them feel comfortable with me.
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’ve spent years caring for dogs of all sizes, personalities, and energy levels, from playful puppies to senior dogs. I currently have a 2 year old cockapoo and a 1 year old cavalier king charles spaniel fully trained and full of love. Working from home allows me to naturally build pet care into my daily routine, giving dogs consistent attention, structure, and companionship throughout the day. With two dogs of my own, I’m already on a steady schedule of morning and evening walks, regular feeding times, and plenty of play time in between. Due to me being home primarily, I can provide frequent potty breaks, supervision, and quick responses to any needs, which helps dogs feel comfortable and secure. I take time to learn pets routines, preferences, and personalities so they feel safe and comfortable while in my care. I’m dependable, communicative, and treat every dog like my own, with plenty of love, structured walks, playtime, and calm companionship. I’m also attentive to details like feeding schedules, medication needs, and behavioral cues, ensuring your pet receives consistent, thoughtful care.
“Thank you! I would love to have you a little consostentlh maybe once or twice a week! Lmk if you have any available evenings throughout the week (late afternoonish). Merry Christmas!”
About: I am a compassionate individual who loves dogs with all my heart! My experience with dogs includes volunteering at the Jacksonville Humane Society, doing pet care through a service called 9-5 pets, and owning a dog since I was 6 years old up until I was 20 years old. I look forward to meeting your furry friends! I have afternoons and evenings free. Walking dogs is a great form of exercise and when I owned my dog walking him was always the best part of my day. I care for pets by making sure they are comfortable with me, by bending down and letting them sniff my hand. Then I will spend quality time with them by feeding them, walking them, petting them, or playing with toys.

“Vigi and family were wonderful and my Harley was nothing but happy with them. I will be booking for any future boarding and daycare as long as they are available. Highly recommend them for your fur babies!”
“Hannah is so patient and kind. She made sure Ellie was happy and healthy during her stay, went above and beyond in her care, and was very communicative with me. I highly recommend her for any pup, especially if you need special accommodations for medical or behavioral issues.”
“Travis did another great job caring for Klaebo and Kelsey, which can be challenging with medication and other needs. We really appreciate how Travis sends nightly pictures and updates, the dogs seem genuinely happy. He is very patient and caring with our dogs and we really appreciate it.”
“I’m so grateful I came across Daisy and her family. They watched my dog over the weekend and took amazing care of her. It was clear she was treated like part of the family, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. Daisy kept me updated, and I could tell my dog was happy and well cared for. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again, and I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!”
“We are so happy with our decision to leave George with Katie while we were overseas for our wedding for 2 weeks. It was obvious he was extremely happy in her care and alongside her dog, Maggie! She shared pictures and updates throughout the stay to keep us updated. It was nice knowing our dog George was having his own mini vacation while we were away missing him. 10/10 and will book with Katie again.”
“Such a great sitter for my dog! HIGHLY RECOMMEND! She took lots of pictures of my dog and he seemed very happy and well cared for. She took him of many walks and kept me updated on him.”
“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!”
“When you find sitters that are "above and beyond ordinary", its difficult to sum things up in a few words. Delaney and her fiancee was absolutely superb. For this to be our first encounter, I felt a sense of peace with caring for my 4-legged baby, Tim. They were inviting and very accommodating. Im glad to know that Tim has adopted Rover parents in 2 cities, Orlando (Caylie and Jacob) and now in Jacksonville with an added bonus sister, Ivy. As a protective dog mum, I would highly recommend Delaney. Just remember that Tim gets first dibs (LoL).”
“Christa was so great with our dog. She met him in advance and learned all about him. Knowing that we were nervous leaving our dog with a sitter, she kept us update and kept him busy with lots of walks, playtime and fun. He came home super happy and looked great from lots of brushing. We'll definitely be booking with Christa if we need a sitter again.”
“Joanna made Sutter feel right at home. I was so comfortable leaving him because I knew he would be in good hands. When I picked him up he was happy and healthy. I’m looking forward to having Joanna watch Sutter again—I’m sure he will be happy to see her!”
“Archer had a blast. We had peace of mind from the photos and videos and I knew that Archer was in good hands. They were very friendly and accommodating to our crazy schedule.”
“Lilly has stayed with Bridget three times now and comes home happy and tired! We get great photos of her with Bridget and her family and she always looks like she’s having fun. We’ve started referring to them as Lilly’s “other family”.”
“Cynthia was great with our two dogs. She went above and beyond to take care of them and make sure they were comfortable and happy while in her care. We couldn't ask for a better care giver for our dogs!”
“Andrea took our dog in last minute & took great care of him, checking in with pictures & texts, despite being busy caring for multiple dogs. It was also a holiday weekend on top of it. Andrea is very accommodating & understanding, we will definitely use her services again!”
“Andrea and David were very kind when my dog was sick on the first day (due to being upset at being left) and took good care of her. They communicated well and sent me pictures daily, which I really appreciated. I would definitely have them dog sit again in the future.”
“Wow! What an enjoyable time my dog Grace had with this family. Eliana and Joshua are such kind people and pet lovers. It was an honor to have my dog stay at their home. Their kids showed my dog so much love. I would definitely recommend them to others. What a wonderful experience.”
