“If I could give more than 5 stars, I would!! Chris and Tannia are the nicest people you’d want to meet! Their condo is very clean and safe as well. They kept me updated, send me lots of photos and always responded quickly. I could tell Stella was also happy through the photos!”
“Patti was wonderful with our 2 dogs! Her communication with us during our trip was so appreciated. She sent daily updates, photos and videos, which went a long way to ensure us that our pets were cared for with as much attention to detail as we would give ourselves. This made our trip so much more enjoyable and stress-free. I would most definitely recommend her for pet boarding. She’s absolutely wonderful!”

About: I have years of experience caring for a wide variety of animals, including dogs, cats, hamsters, rats, guinea pigs and even pigs. I’m comfortable with feeding, walks, playtime, cleaning, and giving pets plenty of attention and affection while their owners are away. I’m a mom and lifelong animal lover with several pets of my own, so I understand how important it is to have someone dependable caring for your pets when you can’t be there. I take pet safety and owners’ instructions seriously and will make sure your pet receives attentive, individualized care. I am the sole caretaker for all services booked through my Rover account. My daughters also love animals and may occasionally accompany me when appropriate and with the pet owner’s permission, but all pet care and responsibility remains solely with me. I have availability on select weekdays as well as weeknights and weekends. My schedule varies, which gives me flexibility to accommodate pet care on an as-needed basis. I will only accept bookings when I know I can personally provide the time and attention your pet needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my priority. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, walking, routines, medications, household rules and any special needs. I take time to learn each pet’s personality and routine so I can provide consistent, individualized care. I am the sole caretaker responsible for all services booked through my Rover account.
“Maria is a godsend. My Jade had the best time! I received photos and videos throughout her visit. This was her first time with a babysitter, ever. Maria was so kind to keep us updated and show us how happy my baby was while there! We have many more bookings set up and are so relieved and grateful for Maria. Thank you so very much for being such a wonderful sitter!”
“Christa was wonderful! She was very responsive to texts and sent a lot of photos and videos. We felt comfortable leaving our puppy with her and are so glad we did. We highly recommend her!”

“Patti is so sweet and my fur baby loves her (and she is very picky!). She takes such good care of her. I will always use Patti when I need someone to watch my fur baby.”

“Alyssa is outstanding! She went above and beyond in taking care of my sweet but shy, cat (Binx). I was surprised how quickly she won him over and loved seeing pictures of Binx playing and eagerly accepting Alyssa’s attention. Alyssa is dependable and an excellent communicator. I highly recommend Alyssa and look forward to booking her to care for my sweet boy in the future.”
“Ruth was awesome she totally helped me in a time of need with a last minute request! She took complete care of my cat and made sure I felt he was in good hands. Would totally use her again!!”
“Lorraine was wonderful with our cat Monica! She was flexible on the drop off time since we were moving from another state the same day that we were dropping our cat off for care. She kept us updated with pictures and information about how Monica was acclimating to her new environment. We would absolutely recommend her and hope to use her again!”
“Sara did an amazing job watching my 3 cats. There are a lot of specific instructions she had to follow and temperaments she had to cater to. I would absolutely recommend her to watch anyone’s fur babies. She went above and beyond cleaning up after accidents and sending updates every visit. Will definitely reach out again if I leave town and need a sitter!”
“Catherine was the best sitter I have ever used! I have never felt comfortable leaving Michu with anyone including family but this time I had no worries at all. I will definitely rebook next time we travel.”
“For the five days Daisy came to our house we received photos of our cats looking healthy and happy. The text message exchanges from her assured us that all was well. We highly recommend Daisy!”

About: I’ve been caring for cats for over 10 years and am comfortable with cats of all ages, including seniors and those with special care needs. I’ve helped care for my sister’s three cats for many years, including one who had no teeth and required a wet-food-only diet and a very specific feeding routine. I currently also care for my roommate’s two cats whenever she’s away, so I’m experienced with feeding schedules, litter box cleaning, playtime, and keeping cats comfortable in their own home. Whether your cat is playful, shy, or prefers quiet companionship, I’ll make sure they receive plenty of attention and loving care while you’re away.
“Wendy was awesome! She took good care of Freja and sent a lot of pictures making us feel confident that our cat is in good hands. We do appreciate you, Wendy!”
“First time using Rover and met Nathan through the service to sit my 16 year old cat Tom. He was always punctual, followed instructions and most importantly Tom seemed to like him as he was able to also administer meds to him with no issues at all. I also had a last minute request if he could cater to an additional evening sit service as I was running late to be home in time for his feeding and medications and Nathan accepted with no issue. He even brought in some packages that was delivered while I was away — Thank You! Greatly appreciate having Nathan keep and eye on Tom and spend some time with him while I took a short trip and will definitely rebook for future occasions now that I know I can count on him for keeping an eye on Tom. ?”
“She was wonderful!!! I️ had to leave last minute for a family emergency and she was so communicative and sweet with my cat! My girl loved her and she took good care of her! 10/10 recommend !”
“Brianna kept us informed on a daily basis for our three cats. It was good to see they were in the care of someone who really cares about animals! We will definitely be using her again.”
“Suilen took great care of our dog for the day. She was super accommodating to our requests and sent lots of videos and photos of their time together. Highly recommend - we wouldn’t hesitate to use her again.”
About: As a lifelong animal lover, I’m truly comfortable with pets of all shapes, sizes, and personalities—whether that’s a high-energy pup, a shy rescue, or even more exotic companions. I’m not afraid of any animals and approach each one with patience, confidence, and genuine care. Your pet’s safety, happiness, and routine are my top priorities, and I’m always willing to go the extra mile—whether that means extra playtime, longer walks, medication administration, or plenty of cuddles. I treat every animal as if they were my own and strive to give you total peace of mind while you’re away. 🐾 I am open right now, currently a mother to twins so just wanting to get out of the house, and love up on your sweet babies! I am open to early hours and late evenings into the night to take care of your pets. I have a fenced backyard with plenty of space for free roaming and a safe neighborhood to walk around at. I love to go for nature walks around Washington and know the best spots!
“I can't say enough about this dynamic duo! From the very first "meet and greet" with myself and my senior 17 year old pitbull, it was clear to me that my pup would be in GREAT hands. I went out of town and I never felt as at ease knowing that BellaMarie was going to be well looked after, as I had knowing that she was being loved and cared for in the manner I would have. I received videos of her enjoying yard time and play time along with photos. I hands down will be rebooking with Kimberly and Jarred. I would recommend them to anyone who needs care for their animal(s).”

“Lana was responsive and warm from the start, took care of my baby at the last minute for us and it went great. First time using a dog sitter but we will be repeat customers.”
“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.”
“5 Star. My pup arrived and went into Happy Mode! One of the best Rovers sitters since I began using the service years ago. She is warm and attentive and fast responding. Thank you!”
About: Hi, we’re Anna and Nick, your neighbors and fellow dog lovers. We have a goldendoodle and three dachshund who love having friends over. They’re all very social and sweet with dogs of all sizes and energy levels. Please check out their pet profiles for more info. We offer daycare and overnight stays at our house. Nick and I both work from home and have a flex scheduled. We have plenty of time to give the pups lots of love and attention throughout the day. No kids. We give lots of attention and outside time. Our home is a calm, dog-focused environment. We have a large fenced yard and are outside a lot. We have a pool. While our dogs don’t swim, many of our friends’ dogs love a dip. We don’t mind! We love it. And we won’t leave them unattended.
“Wendy was super awesome to accept my last minute booking for my baby's evening care. I have never left my Squiggle with a pro-sitter, so I was apprehensive about the experience - but I had to try it out, knowing I would probably need sitting services in the future. Wendy was on time picking up my little guy, and even went above and beyond when she went by the pet store to pick up Squiggy's fave brand of food at my request. Thanks, Wendy. She was responsive, quickly answering when I messaged to check on my baby. She even sent me pictures, and although he looked miserable BC he missed me (we are VERY attached), I was comfortable knowing he was well cared for while with Wendy. I had appointments until later that night and Wendy was very accommodating and dropped him off right when I asked, and she gave me a full update via Rover - right down to how many times Squiggy made poo. That is some serious awesome. And although very excited to see me and be home, Squiggy wasn't traumatized I left him with a stranger. Now that he has met Wendy, I wont hesitate to book her again, should we need her. Squiggy made a new friend, and I am now totally cool with Wendy watch my little guy again.”
“Patty was fantastic in caring for my miniature daschund Richard. Patty knows the breed well and was very quick in understanding Richards quirks. She was patient and kind with him and I could see that he loved spending time with her because he would run to her door in the morning to see her. I could not have been happier with Patty, she is amazing. Thank you Patty.”
“Kaitlyn and Andrew were great with Ruthie. From pics, I could tell Ruthie had a blast and was well taken care. Very accommodating with drop off and pick up times”
“AMAZING SERVICE! Randy and Mimi took care of our dog like he was their own. He had such a good time and was able to socialize and meet new dogs. We would recommend them to anyone looking for an amazing doggy day care/boarding for their dog!”
About: I have taken care of pets for friends and family for quite some time now. Also I have worked for an emergency vet, which provided some useful skills and knowledge to ensure safe pet care. From fur babies to seniors I am here for your fur children’s needs when you can’t be.🤗 I’m currently starting my own business, doing house cleaning in the mornings as well as bartending some nights. My schedule is flexible according to what you may need. I come for a meet and greet to make sure of our compatibility, creating some familiarity. Taking pets for walks as needed, I will also wash them if you like/if needed.

“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!”
“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 😊”
About: Hi, I'm Lydia, and I'd love the opportunity to care for your pet! I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family member. Whether you're at work, on vacation, or just need an extra helping hand, you can count on me to provide dependable, attentive, and compassionate care. I've cared for and fostered dogs and cats of all ages—from playful puppies and kittens to sweet senior pets. Through that experience, I've become comfortable administering medications, caring for anxious or reactive pets, and adapting to each pet's unique personality, routine, and energy level. Whether your pet loves long walks, playing fetch, chasing toys, snuggling on the couch, or simply having a calm companion, I'll make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away. I'm also a registered nurse, so providing attentive care, following detailed instructions, and staying calm in unexpected situations are second nature to me. I work three 12-hour shifts each week, which gives me several full days to dedicate to pet care, including walks, runs, drop-in visits, daycare, and overnight stays. My goal is simple: to care for your pet as if they were my own while giving you complete peace of mind. During every visit, I'll send detailed updates along with plenty of photos, so you'll always know how your pet is doing. I pride myself on being punctual, communicative, and reliable, and I would be honored to earn your trust. I can't wait to meet you and your furry family! I have a lot of flexibility in my schedule that will allow me to take some last minute requests! I work 3-12 hour shifts a week which provides me with a lot of free days! Need something outside my listed availability? Reach out! While I keep my calendar as accurate as possible, I may be able to accommodate special requests. I will care for your pet like they were my own! I promise to be professional and courteous while entering your space to care for your pet if I'm dropping in. If they are staying with me-I also have a beautiful back yard overlooking a pond for some good supervised sun bathing, fetch, or good sniffs.
About: I grew up in a country area, we had a lot of animals growing up. We had to take care of chickens, bunnies, roosters, horses, cows, guinea pigs and dogs. I think I have a strong base to take care of a pet appropriately. Plus we are a military family l, most likely you will find us on base! Currently I am employed full time in a working from home environment, at times I can be called in to deploy out of state but I will let you know in advance! Mostly I am available during weekdays in the morning before 8am and in the afternoon after 4:30pm. I can also be available on Saturdays with prior notification/plan. We have a fenced yard, lots of green areas,trails that we can walk to, a dog park and well lit areas. For me this is as serious and delicate as taking care of a child, I will ask owners if treats are allowed or anything that is allowed/not allowed.
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 cared for dogs, cats and even horses since childhood. Friends, family and neighbors have entrusted me with their fur babies, a privilege which I take very seriously. I enjoy spending time with all animals, whether that be playing, walking, bathing, feeding, or afternoon napping. I work full time Monday through Friday, and have the option to work from home on a weekday if needed. I am available for boarding Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, and for all other services Monday through Friday after 5:00pm and all day Saturday and Sunday. I live in a house in a safe, small neighborhood with sidewalks and have a large backyard. I can easily crate if needed and provide the care and services accordingly based on each clients’ requests.

About: I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember and have years of experience caring for both dogs and cats. I also previously worked at an animal hospital, which gave me valuable hands-on experience around pets with different personalities, ages, and care needs. I understand how important it is to have someone you genuinely trust caring for your pets and entering your home. I’m patient, attentive, dependable, and will treat your pets with the same love and care I give my own. I’m comfortable with dogs of different sizes and energy levels and can provide walks, playtime, feeding, companionship, and drop-in visits while keeping your pet’s normal routine as consistent as possible. I’m also very comfortable with cats and understand that sometimes earning their trust means giving them a little extra patience and space! I’m happy to follow detailed care instructions and will always keep you updated with photos and messages so you can relax knowing your pet is safe, happy, and getting plenty of attention. 🐶🐱❤️
About: From a young age my grandma volunteered me to help look after our neighbors pets. But it never felt like a chore. I mean, is there any better job? I'd start with one house, & word of mouth had me sitting for a handful of neighbors! Overnight as well. Sitting was always for dogs, & I'm already a long time cat owner, so I'm the best of both worlds! I work part time as my main job, so I can pop in or stay overnight to look after your pets no problem! Whenever you need me, I'm there! I'm very respectful of my clients homes. I'll always leave it how it was found. Your pet will get all the care they desire, & the care you demand.
“We are so grateful to have had Alexandra take care of our Mucho! She went above and beyond what we expected and truly treated him with so much care and attention. She even took the extra time to clean his crate and make sure everything around him was clean and comfortable. What we appreciated the most were her regular updates. Knowing how Mucho was doing throughout our trip gave us so much peace of mind. Alexandra was very attentive, thoughtful, and genuinely caring, and we could tell that she was putting in extra effort to make sure he was happy and well taken care of. We highly recommend Alexandra to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter. She exceeded our expectations, and we would absolutely love to have her care for Mucho again in the future! Thank you so much, Alexandra, for taking such wonderful care of our boy! 🐾❤️”
About: Hi everyone! My name is Alyssa. 🤗 What sets me apart is that I genuinely treat every pet like family. I’m patient, attentive, adaptable, and especially comfortable with senior pets, anxious animals, and pets who need extra patience or specialized care. I have personal experience caring for a senior cat with diabetes, which has taught me how important consistency, observation, and attention to detail are when caring for an aging pet or one with additional needs. I’m comfortable following detailed feeding routines, medication instructions, and individualized care plans. I’m also very calm and capable in a crisis. If something unexpected happens, I don’t panic. I assess the situation, follow the appropriate steps, communicate with the owner, and make sure the pet’s safety comes first. I know how important it is to have someone you can trust to stay level-headed when you’re not there. Above all, I pay attention to the little things: changes in appetite, bathroom habits, energy, behavior, and overall mood. I want every pet to feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their person is away, and I’ll keep you updated with photos and messages so you never feel out of the loop. 🐾💛⭐️🤗✨ As an actress and social media content creator, my schedule is very flexible and currently quite open, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to the pets in my care. I’m able to work my days around their routines, whether that means walks, feedings, playtime, medication, or simply keeping them company. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, and having a flexible schedule means I’m not constantly rushing off to another commitment. Your pet can get plenty of attention, companionship, and care throughout the day. Basically, I’m happy to let your pet be my boss. 😂🐾 Whether your pet is staying in my home or I’m caring for them in yours, my priority is making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and as close to their normal routine as possible. In my home, I give pets time to become familiar with the surroundings and neighborhood rather than overwhelming them. I pay close attention to their stress levels, body language, appetite, energy, and behavior so I can adjust their care to what they’re communicating. When house sitting, I treat your home with the same care and respect I would my own. Along with caring for your pets, I’m happy to handle everyday things like tending to gardens, taking out the trash, doing dishes, bringing in mail, and keeping the home tidy. I want you to come home to happy pets and a home that feels just as you left it. 🐾
About: We’ve owned many dogs before. We travel frequently for longer periods of time so we can’t have another of our own in this season. We still want to fill the time we are home with a dog in the house and be able to help out families. I work from home and my husband is a teacher so he is home mid afternoon and each evening. We are in and out during the weekends. We live very close to a dog park if that is something your dog is interested in and love going on walks around the neighborhood. We love spending time outside in the backyard or cuddled on the couch. We also have plenty of space if your dog prefers to be in a crate or on its own.
“Catherine was great! Responsive, attentive and so kind to our pup! She was punctual and very easy to work with, would definitely recommend and use again for future bookings. Billie was a happy and tired girl, she enjoyed the walks and playtime together.”
About: Every animal has a unique personality. During our time together, I love discovering shared interests with your pets so we both have a genuinely fun experience. Animals are exceptionally intuitive and pick up on our energies, which is why I always bring my calmest, happiest, and most present self to every interaction. I own a pet care business called George Sits LLC in Jacksonville, and I am looking to fill my books! I would leave only to stop in on other pets nearby who may also be in my care. I have multiple years working and volunteering at boarding facilities and shelters, and I have never been petless myself. Growing up, we had dogs, chickens, snakes, guinea pigs, geckos, and so so so many cats. My Approach to Care For Dogs: Built entirely on positive reinforcement, encouragement, and active engagement. For Cats: Built on respect and consent. I understand that royalty makes the rules, and I'm happy to follow whatever boundaries your cat sets for me. Earning Your Trust I understand that handing over the keys to your home and leaving your sweet companion in someone else's hands requires immense trust. Earning and maintaining that trust is my #1 priority. That is why I offer a complimentary Meet & Greet for all new clients, giving us a chance to connect and make sure we’re a perfect fit before you book.
“Elaine is amazing with our Coco! We are so thrilled to have found her. She goes above and beyond on rainy days with our girl making sure her paws are clean when she comes inside. And that she has her rain coat on.”
About: Hi! I’m Lauren — an active, outdoorsy person who recently traded the corporate grind for a little more freedom, and I’m excited to spend some of that time with your dog or cat! I grew up with dogs my entire life and have years of experience pet sitting for friends and coworkers. I’m reliable, responsible, and genuinely love being around animals. I especially enjoy getting outside for walks and adventures, but I’m equally happy hanging out with a pup who just wants some company. I’ll follow your pet’s routine, communicate throughout the visit, and send plenty of photos and updates so you know your pup is happy and well cared for. I’ve also put in time sitting cats - including some high-maintenance felines that needed special medication administered. You can trust me to follow instructions closely! I have a very flexible schedule right now while I am pursuing entrepreneurial ventures. I’d love to use dog sitting as a regular part of my schedule to get outside and keep moving - recurring bookings welcomed! 😊 I am meticulous and am always sure to completely close and secure all gates, doors, exits, etc. I’ll always keep my eye on your pet to keep them safe and comfortable.
About: We are a family of 3 people who really want to add a dog as a family member but unable to take on the financial responsibility at this time so this might be the next best thing, just genuine love for your pets, no special skills at this time. Currently work from home and have the ability to be very present with your dog. My 2 children have been reminding me that I promised them a dog by the time my son turns 10 and my daughter is 8. I'm just not ready to find my forever dog yet- My son is now 11 and daughter is ready to turn 9 right after Christmas and we have loved having your dogs as a part of our family while you're away! In my home, treating them like our own part of the family. We are a playful family and we like getting out of the house on walks and do things like Riverside Arts Market and the beach. In your home, will follow your guidelines and be just as loving and attentive
About: I’ve been around animals for as long as I can remember. I grew up with family in the countryside in my homecountry, where caring for animals was part of everyday life. I’ve always had dogs, been around them, and I currently have a dog of my own. Because of that, I’m comfortable caring for pets of different personalities and understand how important it is to make them feel safe, loved, and well cared for. Whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, or simply keeping them company, I’ll treat your pet like family and follow your care instructions carefully. I’m a college student who also works part-time, so my availability may vary depending on the day. I’m generally more available on weekdays and would love the opportunity to care for your pet. I’ll do my best to work with your schedule and make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities. I carefully follow your pet’s routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any special instructions you provide. I’m patient, responsible, and treat every pet as if they were my own. I’ll also keep you updated with photos and messages, so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.

About: I have trained dogs since Im 13 and My goal is to help dogs to find their balance trough sport activities and love sharing. The most important thing about pets is that they need to feel loved and a lot of attention, tipicaly we have them at home like part of the family but they need also a lot of different activities that make them understand they are animals. One of the most important things is to share time with other animals to make the dog sociable and manageable it does not matter the size or the breed they all talk the same language that we might understand trough the kinesic they express. every gesture they express wants to say something we have to pay attention to all the details.
About: I’ve been taking care of animals my whole life. my uncle owned a farm with many animals and I would take care of them every week. This is where my love for animals came from. I know how to take care of animals as well know when something is wrong. I have owned animals of all types. I’ve owned dogs as big as American eskimos and small ones like toy poodles. I love long walks/runs, especially when I have a good companion by my side. I am also a cat lover. I once had sheltered 12 cats and eventually found homes for all of them. I am very patient, kind, and energetic. I’m the type of person who will treat your animal as my own. Free as a bird! I have no weekly restrictions! I’m capable of taking care of your dog or cat anytime during the week. I’ll be there for you for whenever you and your fur baby need me! I can take care of your pet in the comfortability of your home. You can count on me to keep you well informed on my whereabouts and arrivals/departures from your home! I can and will provide pictures and videos for your pet and home to make you feel secure. Please don’t hesitate if you have any questions or special requests on how to make this experience as easy and comfortable as possible!
