“Edward was AWESOME!!! He's very quick to respond and professional. He will always give you updates and photos while you are away from your babies. He was very patient with my anxious Aussie as well. Feel safe and secure with Edward watching over your pets!”
“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 ❤️”
“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.”
“Christian was amazing! From all the picture and video updates, to her updating me on how my baby Kayo was doing, how good he was, and she even took him out to a park for walks! Christian treated my furbaby like he was her own, down to her cooking my baby boy some food! If I could give more than 5 stars I would. I’ve booked with other people before but I have never felt this secure with leaving my baby! If you’re reading this, don’t hesitate to book with her because I promise you, your furbaby will be in the best care. Thank you so much for loving on Kayo, he seemed sad to leave his new friends lol. We will definitely be booking again!”
“Imani was absolutely professional and provided my babies with comfortable accommodations during my 4 day vacation. My dogs are seniors and require a lot of attention and I appreciate how attentive she was to all of their needs. As a dog mom I’m always a bit nervous about leaving my babies behind when I go on vacation, but she put my mind at ease. She sent ample pictures throughout their stay and I’ll definitely be using her again in the future. 5/5 🐾, highly recommended. I would definitely book her now!”
“Thank you Meaghan! Missy🐕 had a great time with you and Bella and new friends. From the meet and greet we knew she’ll have all your love. How we wish we’ve known you earlier. We appreciate the updates and photos. We had a worry free vacay. We’ll definitely book again our Missy with Meaghan when we go to our upcoming 2wk vacay. I highly recommend her^-^”
“Christine was amazing! Accommodated a last minute boarding for my 2 year old pug (Luna) — which was a life saver! She sent frequent updates of her snuggling with Luna, playing with her, and even napping with her. Highly recommend 😊”
“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!”
“Christopher was very easy to communicate with and sent photos of my dogs throughout the week. He let me know when one of them didn’t seem to be eating normally and he was confident in handling it. My dogs came back happy and without issues.”
“Rachelle is amazing. Our furry girl was well loved and taken care of while we were out of town. We received pictures and updates while we were gone and a happy, non stressed pooch when we came home ❤️ couldn’t be happier.”
“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!”
“Joshua went above and beyond while watching our French bulldog. He kept us updated throughout the stay and made sure everything was taken care of. We will definitely be coming back! Thanks Josh!”
“Em was great! My dog is currently in her care for another stay while I’m away and i am totally at ease to know my dog is in the care of such a tentative person! Would definitely recommend her for your pet sitting needs!”
“Wendy was wonderful. She sent the cutest photos of my baby daily! She came home tired and happy. It's clear she got lots of exercise and lots of love. Will be using Wendy's services in the future! :)”
“Rachel was awesome! Freyja had room to run and friends to run with, and I received photos updating me throughout her stay. She's my first choice when I have to go out of town for work.”
“My chihuahua and I haven't been a part in forever. When my family and I went on a one week trip, I knew I had to find the perfect dog sitter. My dog is picky and I was worried, but she was immediately comfortable at crystals house. She is so kind and attentive, and became best friends with my chihuahua. She was comfortable around everyone in the household and very well taken care of. Will certainly be using her services in the future and am beyond thankful for her and her family. Thank you SO much”
“Gissell was absolutely amazing! I just moved to the area and was heading to a family reunion when our original sitter had to cancel due to a death in the family. I was so worried about where my pups would stay, but Gissell swooped in with a quick response and immediately put my mind at ease. She treated my dogs like royalty — like they were part of her own family! They had an absolute blast, and I could tell just by how happy and relaxed they were that they truly loved being there. I will absolutely be booking with her again for all future stays. Highly, highly recommend!”
“McKensie is simply the best cat sitter in my book. She takes exceptional care of your furry family members and gives you complete peace of mind while you’re away. Caring, dependable, and professional, she treats your pets as if they were her own. Working with her has been an absolute pleasure from start to finish. If you’re looking for someone to trust with your pet children, you couldn’t ask for better hands than McKensie’s. Highly recommended!”

“Gracie did a fantastic job taking care of our cats over the holiday weekend. Her visits were timely as were her communications. All the photos of our babies put us at ease. She even managed daily medication needs for one of our cats without issue. I am happy to recommend Gracie.”
“Jada always sends a cute picture and you can tell she just really enjoys being with our fur babies. She took her time making sure our indoor/outdoor kitty was always inside when he needed to be. She’s not afraid to ask questions and she really gives us peace of mind when we are away.”
“Thanks so much, Haley! We loved the updates and you took incredible care of our little ones!!! They really like you a lot. We can’t thank you enough. Looking forward to having you come out on our next trip!”
“Karen looked after our 5 rescue kittens that we found 2 weeks before our vacation. She took photos on each visit which definitely it made it easier for us to relax knowing they were being well looked after while we were away. We will definitely trust her again to look after the two that we are keeping in the future. Thanks so much Karen ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“I am so grateful for her services. She has been a blessing to me and my animals. She is honest and thorough and goes out of her way to make sure everyone is taken care of. She has a genuine love for animals.”

“Kristie is awesome! She followed all the instructions I left, took great care of my shy little cat, and even kept me updated with friendly messages. I felt super confident leaving Mia in her care and would absolutely trust her again!”
About: I have my own doggies, they are both 3! I’m used too picking up the pet care when parents leave to go out of town and just take stress off their shoulders! Friends and family, cats and dog i’ve always been the one they call. I’m used to very strategic routines with my baby’s so i’m willing to do the same for yours. Doing the best in every way to make my stay with them as comfortable as possible! I currently work 5 days a week 8-2pm and i’m looking too pick up something i’m actually interested in, We all know how a high school job can last after high school when it wasn’t planned and i’m very interested in baby sitting and pet sitting for people and just giving back the love i share with my animals where it’s needed! I have a fenced in yard for both of my puppies and everyday i come home and make sure they get plenty of play time with me. They have a routine with me, I feed them every evening at 5pm and give them supplements for their health so they live the longest and happiest life !
“This turned out to be the best service ever. Erika was amazing and I hope she'll become a regular for Scout. I unintentionally became the sole responsible human to a neighbors cat. I believe she's now needing a permanent home. I hadn't planned for this as we are retired and plan to travel. Finally true empty nesters. We kept Scout inside for our first trip with no clue how she'd do, but daily visits were perfect. We have decided to keep Scout. ☺️”
“We hired Brooke to care for our cat Myrtle for a recent trip and could not be more pleased with her care! Fantastic communication and sent tons of pictures daily. Highly recommended!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”

“This was my first time being away from my sweet girl since bringing her home. We booked a one day doggy daycare with Honey as a trial before her upcoming weekend stay, so Mila could get comfortable and adjust. Honey was wonderful and kept me updated with plenty of pictures throughout the day, which gave me such peace of mind. Mila came home happy and completely tuckered out from all the fun she had! 🐶🐾🎀”
“Christian truly took care of my dog as if he were her own. She sent me daily updates, photos, and videos. Anytime I txted her, she responded back within less than 5 minutes. I look forward to using her services again! 10/10 recommend booking with her.”
“Kaitland is so amazing. She’s responsive, so gentle, and her communications is always on point. We baby our 10-year old frenchie, and Kailand and her daughters are the most amazing and trusted pals we could have had asked for. 10/10 - would definitely book again”
About: Our family has always included pets. I will be incomplete without them. I have foster and rescue many cats. And I have trained our dogs for service work. All of this has provided me with unique knowledge about grooming, behavior, breeds specific, and training for animals. I'm excited to offer your pet the same level of care than ours. I respect pets like a family member. And through this sitting I am hoping to grow our resources to keep giving back to shelters and other pets in need. I am are currently working from home. And spend my days inside. So your pet will have company 24/7. My family have a very quiet lifestyle and will accommodate to any routine necessary. I offer personalized environment for our sitting pets. Since we have the space, if you have a shy pet they can be in a quite room by themselves and be accompanied as they like. Or if is playful it can hang around playing with our kittens. We do leave them the first night in their own space to accommodate. And if you like we can transition them into the general space.

“This family is amazing at what they do. They are quick to respond to your booking request and they have accommodated me on several occasions when my schedule has changed. I couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter while I’m in Florida for the holidays. They send soooo many pictures and videos. It’s wonderful!”
“Cannot say enough good things about Lesly and Josh! They took such special care of my Lily. They were able to work with me and be flexible when I was stuck at work and couldn’t collect her right away. You can tell they truly care about the babies in their care ♥️”
“Chrissy and fam were great. Ellie was quick to warm up and by the second day, she was already pawing at their front door to go inside. Chrissy made sure I was up to date on her day and she was excellent at communication. Highly recommend and definitely will return once the occasion arises.”
“My fur baby is very clingy and I was initially hesitant after a negative experience at a local boarding business. However, she adapted well to Chyna and I plan to use her services in the future.”

Megan took great care of our boy, giving him treats, cuddle time on the couch watching tv, and was a perfect overall experience couldn't be happier! Will be back in Jacksonville on more work outings and will definitely bring him back!”
“Jessica’s the best! I drop my dog off twice a week for 12 hours at a time and he always gets so excited to go. She takes him on trails sometimes, but he’s also just so happy being at her house with her and her dogs. They play a lot! I also love the cute pictures and videos she se sends throughout the day!”
About: I love dogs and I naturally connect with them. I can read their mood and determine when they want to play, rest or walk. I have had 2 dogs in the past, a German Shepherd for 10 years and a Beagle for 2 years. They were amazing dogs. I currently work in weekdays until 3PM. I do not work on weekends. I spend most of my time at home after work and this will allow me look after the dog always. I have a two story house with a fence patio and plenty of room. I have blanket to cover my furniture for the dog to relax on.
“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!”
“Hunnyhad an amazing day making new friends.. This was the best experience I have ever had being new to the area and I would most definitely recommend Marilyn if you want your baby safe and well taken care of. Hunny will only be going to Marilyn Q.”
About: I’ve taken care of pets for as long as I can remember. Growing up with 4 dogs and 3 cats has taught me how to train and care for animals from a young age. Having my own pets in adulthood has taught me the responsibility it takes to care for puppies, kittens and senior pets from potty training, administering medication to round the clock monitoring and care. I’m an expert when it comes to bath time, having a pup who was afraid of the bath and groomers encouraged to make it fun for them while getting the job done as quickly and efficiently as pawssible(; My boyfriend and I are both working from home giving me the ability to attend to your pets needs all throughout the day and night. I have a large, fully fenced backyard that your fur babies have access to all day and night. My bichon frise/Lhasa apso mix is eager and willing to provide a playful friend and cuddle buddy for the duration of your pets stay.
About: I have grown up with dogs of my own and cared for animals for many years. I love animals especially dogs. I have one dog of my own named Lilo. I recently moved to the area and would love to get to know you and your fur babies! I am a teacher so I can provide pet care evenings/weekends/ school breaks. I am happy to do overnights as well if I can bring my dog. I can care for dogs overnight if I can bring my dog. She is a small wire silk hair dachshund & gets along with other dogs.
About: I've done rover in the past, but have also cared for friends and family members pets on my spare time. I just love animals and looking to spend more time around different pets before I might work in a shelter. I currently work part time so I am very flexible on when I can help take care of your pets! I can't wait to meet them. I have a fenced yard, one dog and one cat. My dog is crated when we aren't home, which isn't often, but for her safety, she tends to chew things up when she's alone.
About: I have a wide spread of experience working with animals. From loving on my own animals, family and friends animals, to loving and training multiple animals that i have worked side by side with. Animals have always had a soft place in my heart. Your animals will be treated like my own! I currently work part-time, which gives me plenty of time and flexibility to give your pets the attention and care they deserve! I’m available most of the time! Your pets will have lots of playtime, outdoor time, supervision, and companionship throughout their stay, so they feel comfortable, active, and loved while you’re away. 🐾 I provide a safe, fun, and loving environment for every pet in my care! I have a large fenced-in yard with plenty of space for dogs to run, play, and get their energy out. I love spending time playing fetch, giving attention, and making sure each pet feels comfortable and cared for while you’re away. Fresh water is always available, and I keep a close eye on pets to ensure they stay happy, safe, and active throughout the day. 🐾

“I had a fantastic experience with Karen. She is friendly and calm with my nervous dog Luna, which made a huge difference for her first walk with a new person. I really appreciated how Karen took the time to ask thoughtful questions about Luna's routine, quirks, and comfort level before heading out. It was clear Karen genuinely cares about making the walk a positive experience. Highly recommend!”

About: I have had animals all my life growing up as child. Over the years I have learned to play with dogs and learn what they like to do as well as what they do not like to do. I notice the small things about the dog such as if their eating habits change, sleeping habits change and activeness change. I have love dogs so your human companion will feel comfortable and loved. I have worked with puppies, young adult and senior dogs treating each with the care they deserved and giving them the attention they require. Animals are my passion and they will always be in good hands with me. I will take care of your pet and they will feel happy and right at home.
About: Hi! Our family would love to help your family in any way we can! From drop ins to overnights we’ve got you covered! We love pets of all shapes and sizes and we’ve got you covered on short notice too! ❤️ I work nights at an ER and just want to have something fun to do in my off time!

There are locks on either side and we do have cameras for extra security. Your furbaby is our furbaby while you’re away❤️
About: I have had experience growing up with two two dogs aiding in training and care. I also have had an adopted 6 month year old that was scarred from being at the shelter and working him out of his shell thanks to my experience working for a year and half at Petco dealing with everything from generalized caregiving to health remedies and understanding of generalized health. My availability does fluctuate due to my being in retail management with no further constrictions during holiday. This fact alone has kept me from being a dog parent myself due to a continuously changing schedule personally. With proper notice I can make sure my schedule can align with expectations. My apartment is animal free apartment with no risk of anyone getting along with another. I’m in a open complex in that there’s no restrictions of breeds. I’ve rescued two dogs from my complex due to my my rigorous schedule I can’t regularly have a companion of my own, however I can accommodate for time periods to make sure they’re taken care of properly.

“Imani was absolutely professional and provided my babies with comfortable accommodations during my 4 day vacation. My dogs are seniors and require a lot of attention and I appreciate how attentive she was to all of their needs. As a dog mom I’m always a bit nervous about leaving my babies behind when I go on vacation, but she put my mind at ease. She sent ample pictures throughout their stay and I’ll definitely be using her again in the future. 5/5 🐾, highly recommended. I would definitely book her now!”
“Thank you Meaghan! Missy🐕 had a great time with you and Bella and new friends. From the meet and greet we knew she’ll have all your love. How we wish we’ve known you earlier. We appreciate the updates and photos. We had a worry free vacay. We’ll definitely book again our Missy with Meaghan when we go to our upcoming 2wk vacay. I highly recommend her^-^”
“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!”
“Christopher was very easy to communicate with and sent photos of my dogs throughout the week. He let me know when one of them didn’t seem to be eating normally and he was confident in handling it. My dogs came back happy and without issues.”
“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!”
“Em was great! My dog is currently in her care for another stay while I’m away and i am totally at ease to know my dog is in the care of such a tentative person! Would definitely recommend her for your pet sitting needs!”
“Wendy was wonderful. She sent the cutest photos of my baby daily! She came home tired and happy. It's clear she got lots of exercise and lots of love. Will be using Wendy's services in the future! :)”
“My chihuahua and I haven't been a part in forever. When my family and I went on a one week trip, I knew I had to find the perfect dog sitter. My dog is picky and I was worried, but she was immediately comfortable at crystals house. She is so kind and attentive, and became best friends with my chihuahua. She was comfortable around everyone in the household and very well taken care of. Will certainly be using her services in the future and am beyond thankful for her and her family. Thank you SO much”
“Gissell was absolutely amazing! I just moved to the area and was heading to a family reunion when our original sitter had to cancel due to a death in the family. I was so worried about where my pups would stay, but Gissell swooped in with a quick response and immediately put my mind at ease. She treated my dogs like royalty — like they were part of her own family! They had an absolute blast, and I could tell just by how happy and relaxed they were that they truly loved being there. I will absolutely be booking with her again for all future stays. Highly, highly recommend!”
“McKensie is simply the best cat sitter in my book. She takes exceptional care of your furry family members and gives you complete peace of mind while you’re away. Caring, dependable, and professional, she treats your pets as if they were her own. Working with her has been an absolute pleasure from start to finish. If you’re looking for someone to trust with your pet children, you couldn’t ask for better hands than McKensie’s. Highly recommended!”
“I just moved back to Jax and needed to find a new pet sitter for my toy poodle. I was scheduled to be out of town for 4 days and I had anxiety about leaving him with someone he was unfamiliar with for that amount of time. I downloaded the Rover app and Layda literally fell into my lap. Her reviews were great and her availability was open. I reached out and she was immediately responsive. She offered to give me a call to walk me through how the app works and we talked in depth about my dog. She asked all kinds of questions and gave super helpful suggestions. Before I completed my booking, I asked if we could do a meet & greet so that her and Jinger could meet and she happily agreed. They hit it off perfectly. 2 days later I dropped Jinger for his extended vacay and I could tell my baby had the time of his life. Layda sent pictures and videos multiple times throughout the day and she was always responsive when I checked in. She allowed him to be comfortable and feel at home and I really appreciated that. Based on my first (of many more to come) booking, I can tell that Layda truly cares about what she does and thats a great feeling as a pet mom.”
“Kristall took amazing care of my Bella! I received pictures and daily updates. She was quick to respond and Bella left happy and she was well loved. Thank you for your amazing care of Bella. We are so grateful for you!”
“Christian was excellent. This was our first time leaving our boxer with a stranger and I couldn't have asked for more. She was reassuring and very knowledgeable. I trust that our boxer was well taken care of and loved. She sent lots of pictures daily and gave me updates. I Will definitely be an ongoing client for Christian.”
“Another great and fun visit for my pup striker. As always Megan is great about communicating with with me and sending photos and videos throughout the day. Thanks again Megan see you next month.”
