“I usually go with a pet boarding facility but wanted to try something different. Meaghan was very responsive and flexible with my schedule. She welcomed my 2 frenchies with open arms no hesitation. She made me feel more comfortable with her than taking them to a pet paradise.”
“Our doggy Faye had a fantastic time with Bryce. He texted daily updates with photos and our baby looked so happy in all of them! We definitely trust Bryce to watch Faye again and feel lucky to have found someone like him!”
“Thank you…thank you, Shannon. Your services for carrying for Benjamin is superior and the best we have used in Jacksonville. Benjamin is very well cared for and looks forward to visiting :)! You were recommended by a friend of ours with high praise for your services and have lived up to those expectations. Thank you again.”
“I have to say that I won't leave my dogs with anyone else while I am in Jacksonville! Kaitland took care of my dogs as if they were hers with all the love, and my dogs love her back. Thank you so much for everything ❤️”
“Josillyn, She was awesome—very attentive and accommodating. I wasn’t able to drop off my dog, and she kindly arranged to pick him up and drop him off, which I really appreciated. She also sent updates while I was out of town that gave me peace of mind knowing he was doing well. Highly recommend!”
“Great set up for the dogs! We loved getting pictures of our happy pups during their stay. They had so much room to run and play. Great communication. Definitely recommend.”
“Joelyz did an amazing job watching my Yorkie, Harley, over the past few days. From the moment I dropped him off, I could tell he was in great hands. She kept me updated, showed genuine care, and made sure Harley was comfortable and well taken care of the entire time. When I picked him up, he was happy, relaxed, and clearly treated like family. It gave me real peace of mind knowing he was with someone who truly cares about animals. I highly recommend Joelyz to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter. Thank you again for taking such great care of Harley”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely Amazing Experience with Kelly! I can’t say enough great things about Kelly! She took care of my dog for two weeks while I was out of town, and it was honestly the best dog-sitting experience I’ve ever had. From the very first message, she was warm, professional, and incredibly communicative. Throughout the entire stay, Kelly sent regular updates, photos, and little notes about how my pup was doing — from days playing in the barn and updates on behavior and feeding, to the adorable moments that made us smile every day. It was so reassuring to know my dog was not only safe but truly LOVED and cared for. When I came home, my dog was happy, relaxed, and clearly well-exercised and well-loved. Kelly even went above and beyond by tidying up and washing my dog’s things to be returned nice and fresh for our return home. If you’re looking for someone responsible, compassionate, and genuinely dedicated to animals, Kelly is the one! I’ll definitely be booking her again in the future — and I can’t recommend her highly enough. 🐾💛”
“Jerome was amazing with my dog! He sent pictures and updates every day, which made me feel so comfortable while I was away. My dog clearly loved spending time with him. She looked happy, relaxed, and well cared for in every photo. I could tell he truly enjoys what he does and treats pets like family. I’ll definitely be booking with him again!”
“Hannah was really great with my senior dog and cat. She had a calm and warming presence about her and my animals were well taken care of. Will definitely ask for her on the future!”
“Wendy was incredibly understanding when I ran late, which I truly appreciated. She also kept me updated with plenty of adorable photos of Cody that honestly made my day. I’d absolutely trust her with my boy again.”
“I had a 10/10 experience with Alicia this past weekend while she watched my dog, Kingston. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. Alicia was incredibly patient, kind, and attentive with him. She sent daily updates and photos, which meant so much to us while we were away. I’m so thankful to have found her and would recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring. Your baby will absolutely be in great hands with Alicia!”
“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.”
“Kelly was super good to my boy Bailey. He came home happy and well cared for. Thank you Kelly for giving him special attention with his old age. See you again soon!!”
“Linda is such a friendly and sweet lady! She cared for our dog boomer with so much love and affection. boomer loved staying with her and was sad to leave. She gave boomer his medicine with no issues and because he has bad eye sight she helped him up and down from steps to the couch and bed. We highly recommend her and we will definitely be re booking with her on our next trip!”
“Nice home with a fenced yard & neighborhood. Very friendly sitter and her husband played with my dogs too. Lots of updates & pictures. Would take my dogs back.”
“Katya did a great job taking care of Reggie when I went out of town! Communication was excellent and she provided periodic updates and photos showing how much fun he was having! It’s so nice to be able to leave my boy with someone knowing he is so well taken care of!”
“Patti and Butch were great! They have a wonderful back yard and they treated our little dog like it was their own. She provided daily pictures and updates while we were away for two weeks. Our dog was very happy and safe for the entire visit. I highly recommend Patti for any pet sitting needs.”
“Andrea was incredible! She sent plenty of videos and pictures throughout the dogs stay. When I picked up the pups, they were nothing but smiles. They were so exhausted from all the playing they did that all they did was sleep on the way home. I would highly recommend Andrea!!!”

“Bryce and his wife were able to come visit my kitty with only a days notice. They took their time to let him warm up to them and sent me pictures and great updates. Thankful to have some peace of mind that he was doing ok while I was gone.”
“Hirono did a fantastic job caring for my four cats for a weekend trip away. She communicated well, was punctual for 2x/day visits, and put me completely at ease leaving my babies in her capable hands. I've never had a catsitter who scooped the litterbox during visits, so I felt that was an amazing touch. I very much enjoyed my first booking with Rover; the daily report cards and pictures were so cute and much appreciated, and I would definitely rebook with Hirono again. Thank you!”
“Cheyenne was absolutely amazing with our three dogs! Before her week-long stay, she took the time to do a meet and greet, and it was obvious from the start that she genuinely cared about getting to know them and their individual needs. Throughout the entire week, she kept us updated with daily messages and pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. When our youngest pup developed an upset stomach, Cheyenne went above and beyond by cooking her rice, making sure she was comfortable, and keeping us informed every step of the way. Not only did she take exceptional care of our dogs, but she also treated our home with incredible care. She cleaned up after them, and on her last day she even cleaned our carpets and mopped the floors so we could come home to a spotless house. That level of thoughtfulness is something you just don’t expect. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter, and we’ll absolutely be booking with Cheyenne again. As much as I want everyone to know how incredible she is, part of me wants to keep her our little secret! 😂 Highly, highly recommend!”
“Josilyn is wonderful with animals and a lifesaver! She was able to stop by and give me peace of mind during an emergency. I was in a stressful situation and she took some of the pressure off so that I could deal with what was happening in the moment. Priceless!!!”
“Isis was amazing. She took such excellent care of my cats while I was out of town. She sent pics of them all and followed up with me at each visit. One of my girls requires daily medication and Isis had no issues giving it to her. Highly recommend.”
“Matthew was terrific!! By the second day my shy cat was playing with him and getting pets by the third. Thank you for an excellent job! I will definitely book Matthew for future travel.”
“Tania was straight forward, it was very easy to meet her and hire her. She made constant contact when showing go to my property to check in on my cat while I was away. I would definitely recommend and book her again.”
“Cheyenne was fantastic! She was great about being in contact throughout the week and took a lot of pictures. We will 100% use her services again and would highly recommend that you use her services as well. Thank you again, Cheyenne. You took so much stress off of us so we could enjoy our trip.”
“Chris was awesome and took such great care of my fur babies! I got daily updates and though I know they likely ran and hid when he arrived each day, he let me know he spoke with them and played with their toys for a bit so they could hear. Upon my return, I got a warm welcome from both of The Boys and could tell that they were more relaxed. I didn't get the cold shoulder treatment as I typically do. I will definitely call on Chris again and I would highly recommend him!!”

“Cynthia was fantastic! We went out of town for a week and she came by to feed and play with our cats twice a day and always let us know what was going on and was even able to help me with a special request at my house. She’s really the best and I feel so much better about having her as an option next time we take a trip. It was such a stress reliever to not have to worry about their care while we were gone. Thanks again so much! I can’t recommend you enough! If there was more than 5 stars I would give it!”

We got regular updates and we loved seeing videos of how much fun our dog was having with her friendly dogs. Her home is a welcome place for doggy fun and snuggles! Also, she helped us out when we had to cancel at the last minute several weeks ago, even though she took a hit to her review profile. Thank you for everything, Meagan!”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs of multiple different breeds since I was about 12 years old. Walking, bathing, playing, feeding schedules, basic training, etc. I use to walk neighborhood dogs as a kid/teen plus owning quite a few over the years myself. Since then I worked in a doggy daycare for about 3 years before becoming a stay at home mom. I’m currently looking to return to work since both kids are in school now, so rover is something I want to pick back up on until I find something and continue on the side once I start back working. My availability is pretty open.. I am gone from 7:40am-8:10am & 2:20-3:20pm Monday-Friday to drop off/pick up my children from school. I would absolutely love to help with your fur-baby(ies) from companionship, to feeding schedules, to walking/exercising, bathing, medication and even basic training or continuing the training schedules you already have in place at home! 🙂 I’m currently in between being a stay at home mom and returning to the work force part time, so my availability is pretty open.. Flexible I can accommodate any rules, schedules or training set in place by the owners.. at their home or in mine. I always keep animals separate at feeding times and follow guidelines from owners as far as sleeping arrangements or instructions for how said animal should be put up during times I’m away.

My typical work schedule 7AM-5:30PM Thurs-Sat and 7AM-1PM on Sun/Mon and can care for pets around these times! I always make sure to spend quality time with the pets I care for! As an animal owner, I treat animals the way I’d treat my own, and I make sure to go above and beyond. I keep a very tidy house and will do the same for any house I care for!
“Nancy was great with my boys. I needed a dog walker in a pinch due to my work schedule so we did a quick meet and greet 2 days earlier. I was at ease knowing that my boys were being walked and given some exercise while I couldn't be around. I would definitely recommend Nancy!”
About: I’ve had multiple pets over the years, including both small and large breed dogs and three cats. I genuinely love animals and enjoy caring for and spending time with them. I’ve watched many neighbors’ pets while they were away, helping with feeding, walks, playtime, and keeping them company. I’ve used Rover myself, and I understand how important it is to know your pet is safe, comfortable, and cared for the way you expect while your away. I’m currently in school for radiology, which gives me a consistent but flexible schedule. Pet care fits perfectly into my routine, making me available for house sitting, drop-in visits, walks, or daily check ins. I’m reliable, respectful and will make sure your pets get the attention, companionship, and care they deserve while you are away. I take safety, trust and communication seriously. Whether I’m caring for pets in your home or stopping by for a walk, I follow your instructions closely and keep you pet's routines as normal as possible. I will be respectful of your space and attentive to your pet’s needs, making sure both you and they feel secure, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I’m always happy to provide daily updates to you about your pets to keep you informed and remove some of the stress from your travels.
About: As a dedicated dog walker and sitter, I provide personalized care for pets of all ages. I have experience with training puppies, ensuring they stay active and learn good habits, as well as caring for senior dogs who need extra patience and attention. I prioritize safety, exercise, and comfort to keep your furry friend happy and healthy. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, or maintaining routines, I treat every pet like family. You can trust me to provide reliable, loving care while you’re away! Pet care is a meaningful part of my daily and weekly routine. I plan my schedule around providing consistent and attentive care, ensuring each pet gets the time and attention they deserve. From daily walks and play sessions to feeding and maintaining routines, I prioritize their well-being. Caring for pets brings balance and joy to my day, and I love building bonds with them while supporting their health and happiness. For drop-in visits, I ensure your pet is well-cared for by checking on their needs, providing fresh food and water, and giving them plenty of love and attention. I take time for play and mental stimulation, making sure they feel comfortable and happy while you're away. For dog walking, I tailor each walk to your dog’s energy level and preferences, ensuring they get the right amount of exercise and exploration. I always prioritize safety, stick to your instructions, and return your dog home happy and tired.
About: I have taken care of animals for friends and family over the years! I also have 3 fur babies of my own that I’ve rescued. I’m currently in the navy but I’m on shore duty so I have time in the mornings and evenings to take care of pets for others. I am used to different methods of taking care of animals so I can do anything that the owner requires for their fur babies. Such as crating etc

“I usually go with a pet boarding facility but wanted to try something different. Meaghan was very responsive and flexible with my schedule. She welcomed my 2 frenchies with open arms no hesitation. She made me feel more comfortable with her than taking them to a pet paradise.”
“Our doggy Faye had a fantastic time with Bryce. He texted daily updates with photos and our baby looked so happy in all of them! We definitely trust Bryce to watch Faye again and feel lucky to have found someone like him!”
“Thank you…thank you, Shannon. Your services for carrying for Benjamin is superior and the best we have used in Jacksonville. Benjamin is very well cared for and looks forward to visiting :)! You were recommended by a friend of ours with high praise for your services and have lived up to those expectations. Thank you again.”
“I have to say that I won't leave my dogs with anyone else while I am in Jacksonville! Kaitland took care of my dogs as if they were hers with all the love, and my dogs love her back. Thank you so much for everything ❤️”
“Josillyn, She was awesome—very attentive and accommodating. I wasn’t able to drop off my dog, and she kindly arranged to pick him up and drop him off, which I really appreciated. She also sent updates while I was out of town that gave me peace of mind knowing he was doing well. Highly recommend!”
“Great set up for the dogs! We loved getting pictures of our happy pups during their stay. They had so much room to run and play. Great communication. Definitely recommend.”
“Joelyz did an amazing job watching my Yorkie, Harley, over the past few days. From the moment I dropped him off, I could tell he was in great hands. She kept me updated, showed genuine care, and made sure Harley was comfortable and well taken care of the entire time. When I picked him up, he was happy, relaxed, and clearly treated like family. It gave me real peace of mind knowing he was with someone who truly cares about animals. I highly recommend Joelyz to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter. Thank you again for taking such great care of Harley”
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Absolutely Amazing Experience with Kelly! I can’t say enough great things about Kelly! She took care of my dog for two weeks while I was out of town, and it was honestly the best dog-sitting experience I’ve ever had. From the very first message, she was warm, professional, and incredibly communicative. Throughout the entire stay, Kelly sent regular updates, photos, and little notes about how my pup was doing — from days playing in the barn and updates on behavior and feeding, to the adorable moments that made us smile every day. It was so reassuring to know my dog was not only safe but truly LOVED and cared for. When I came home, my dog was happy, relaxed, and clearly well-exercised and well-loved. Kelly even went above and beyond by tidying up and washing my dog’s things to be returned nice and fresh for our return home. If you’re looking for someone responsible, compassionate, and genuinely dedicated to animals, Kelly is the one! I’ll definitely be booking her again in the future — and I can’t recommend her highly enough. 🐾💛”
“Jerome was amazing with my dog! He sent pictures and updates every day, which made me feel so comfortable while I was away. My dog clearly loved spending time with him. She looked happy, relaxed, and well cared for in every photo. I could tell he truly enjoys what he does and treats pets like family. I’ll definitely be booking with him again!”
“Hannah was really great with my senior dog and cat. She had a calm and warming presence about her and my animals were well taken care of. Will definitely ask for her on the future!”
“Wendy was incredibly understanding when I ran late, which I truly appreciated. She also kept me updated with plenty of adorable photos of Cody that honestly made my day. I’d absolutely trust her with my boy again.”
“I had a 10/10 experience with Alicia this past weekend while she watched my dog, Kingston. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was in such good hands. Alicia was incredibly patient, kind, and attentive with him. She sent daily updates and photos, which meant so much to us while we were away. I’m so thankful to have found her and would recommend her without hesitation to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and caring. Your baby will absolutely be in great hands with Alicia!”

“Kelly was super good to my boy Bailey. He came home happy and well cared for. Thank you Kelly for giving him special attention with his old age. See you again soon!!”
“Andrea was incredible! She sent plenty of videos and pictures throughout the dogs stay. When I picked up the pups, they were nothing but smiles. They were so exhausted from all the playing they did that all they did was sleep on the way home. I would highly recommend Andrea!!!”
About: I’ve always lived with many cats and dogs my whole life. I’ve had a variety of pets of all ages including rabbits, snakes, bearded dragons, hamsters. I’ve also fostered many kittens and puppies and I currently have 2 dogs and 2 cats, the majority rescues. I’m a huge animal lover! I am mostly a stay at home mom with 4 pets. We take the dogs on daily walks and sometimes to the park. We are always spending time outdoors in our spacious back yard with our dogs running around and cats climbing trees and roofs and such! I have 2 dogs and 2 cats both very friendly if spending time together! I also have a fenced in yard with a garden. I have a separate indoor petroom stocked with a couple crates (if needed for my big dog), enclosed cat litter boxes, a large cat climbing tree, plenty of pet food and treats, many water bowls and toys for all! And a very family friendly neighborhood for walks and a spacious (not fenced) park as well.
“Marilyn was amazing! So calm and patient, and she sent sweet pictures and messages about our girl. Bonus for us is she's less than 5 minutes away!”
“Just give her the trophy for Best Dog Sitter of all time, because Charlayda is! She is organized, a great communicator and loves Nugget like she loves her own pets.”
“Always a great experience when Emma watches Margie! She always sends pictures and keeps us updated on her stay! Margie always looks so happy and cared for! ❤️”
