“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.”
“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 ❤️”
“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!”
“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!”
“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.”
“We can't thank Kelly and Brian enough for the great care they give Lakota when she stays with them. She's always well cared for and makes herself right at home. We always miss our baby when we travel, the photos we receive while we're gone help bridge missing her. Lakota's next stay with Kelly and Brian is already booked.”
“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!”
“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! :)”
“Shannon was great! Great communication and tons of pictures. She is very friendly and attentive my dog had a great time I can definitely tell she took excellent care of my dog and will def book in future.”
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! I have 3 beautiful daughters and my oldest daughter is such a great help and loves to play fetch with our dog and yours!❤️ We have a large metal fence all the way around the backyard. There are locks on either side and we do have cameras for extra security. Your furbaby is our furbaby while you’re away❤️
“Andrea is great! She’s an excellent communicator and was wonderful and loving with my two active dogs. They got so much exercise in and trusted Andrea for sure. For their few chill moments, Andrea ensured they had several places to snuggle up in, whether that was by her feet, in her lap, on a blanket surrounded by toys, or in a safe space from home. She followed my care instructions well and asked questions when needed. I know they had the best time and would be more than happy to stay again. Thanks, Andrea!!”
“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!”
“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!”
“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!”
“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.”
“Josilyn was able to take my dog last minute and watch him for a few days after our first plan fell through. She took great care of our boi and he seemed to have a really good time with her.”
“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!”
“This was our first time with Kaitlyn and Andrew, and we were very pleased with the experience. We were regularly updated with photos and felt entirely comfortable leaving Mickey in their care. He was perfectly calm upon his return home and we could tell he received expert care. Thank you Kaitlyn & Andrew!”

“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.”
“Ashley was great. This was our first time leaving our kitty and using a pet sitter. We were anxious leaving her but Ashley gave us detailed updates every visit and pictures. She also answered any questions we had. We will definitely request her services again.”
“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.”

“Kylie is great. She took care of my cats while I was on vacation. She took pictures and communicated with me to make me feel comfortable while I was away. She is very dependable. I will book her again. Thank you Kylie.”
“Lexi was great -- if she had any questions, she contacted us promptly, and she was very good about sending photos and videos to let us know how the kitties were doing.... even our ridiculously-shy kitty snuggled up to her while she was here. :-) Lexi was gracious enough to wait a couple of extra hours in the house until we got home from our trip -- this made things super-easy on us, and we are grateful for that. We just retired, and are planning to do some traveling in 2026; we definitely plan to hire Lexi to stay here during our future trips.”

About: I’ve been the go-to pet sitter for friends’ and neighbors’ pets inside and outside for years! I have dogs and cats and chickens and I love them all. I know how special your pets are and how hard it is to find someone reliable to take care of them in your absence. No one is better than you for your pet, but I will always try my best to meet their expectations. Your pups can have walks or backyard time with toys. If they like other dogs, I have a friendly golden retriever who would be willing to tag along for a play date. (It does help if the yard has been recently poop scooped for maximum play, but we are pretty good at dodging little piles :) ) I’m also experienced with cats, both nice and nasty. I know my way around toys, catnip, scratching posts, and a litter box! Lastly, I also have experience with small mammal care. I used to have a lovely rabbit named Hamilton, so I would love to pet sit your tiniest furballs. I work from home during the day and I am almost always free on weekends and evenings. I have reliable transportation and I would love to go on walks with your pet. I will make sure there are no hazardous items out where your pet could get to them. I also keep an eye out for bite/chew marks and will make note of them. If anything seems amiss you will be notified immediately. I also double check doors and locks when leaving.
About: I am crazy about pets! I worked at Pet Paradise for 2 years, taking care of cats and dogs of all sizes and attitudes! I love animals, and believe that they need/deserve the best care we can give them as their humans 💖💖 With actively working, I am quite used to coming home from a busy day in the office and taking care of and loving on my fur babies! Please message me for more details around scheduling! Safety is my number 1 priority, including understanding body language of our pets and knowing when I am welcome to come say hi! Additionally, I make sure that your home is always safe by locking the doors, ensuring all windows are locked, and lights are off.

“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”
“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! 🐶🐾🎀”
“Here for the weekend and wanted our boy to go have fun and meet new friends. 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!”
About: What sets me apart is my lifelong experience with dogs and my commitment to providing exceptional care. I've cared for dogs of all breeds, ages, and personalities, including fostering and rescuing dogs from neglectful situations. Through hands-on experience and self-education in canine behavior and training, I've developed the skills to understand and meet each dog's unique needs. Whether caring for playful puppies, active adults, or senior dogs, I provide a safe, loving, and dependable environment that gives pet owners peace of mind. Im currently unemployed and have a great support system (friends and spouse who LOVE dogs.) Not tied to many commitments, leaving me free to be present & dog sit day/night. The only times im gone are to do errands. Which isnt more than 2 hrs at a time. Available Mon-Sun for nights and days :). Your pets safety and quality of care is very important to me. Just to describe some of the perks of boarding with me. I have a large yard thats fenced in. A spare bedroom that theyll sleep in/ or be crated in. Very spacious home they can roam freely. Theyre allowed on furniture. Can socialize with my two loving sweet dogs that are trained. Including a safe neighborhood for walks. If pet parent is not comfortable with their pup being around my pets. Ill ensure they remain seperated, as i have the ability to do so with dog gates in the home, if need be. I also have cameras to always keep an eye out (although physically id be present).
“Joelyz was incredibly sweet and attentive, both to me as the client as well as to my dog. She sent pics through the day to keep me updated. I know her training background helps her interact in the right way. I woukd definitely use her again.”
“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.”
“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!”
“Wendy was very good with communication before and during my pup’s visit with her. She sent pictures while he was in her care and he seemed to have a fantastic time with her. My boy has a lot of energy and he was ready for rest after we got home, so I know she spent time playing with him❤️”
“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 have experience watching both cats and dogs for over 10 years, some being my own and mostly others!

I will have a completely open schedule starting the week after Thanksgiving to Christmas as well! I am very careful with any animal I care for. I ensure we have a meet and greet prior to make sure I am completely comfortable in safely caring for your baby❤️
“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.”
“Thank you so much for welcoming my babies into your home and taking good care of them. I can tell they had a great time and felt right at home. I appreciate the pictures and communication about how they’re doing through the day. I definitely plan to book more services with you in the future!”

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.

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.

About: I’ve taken care of pets for as long as I can remember, anything from dogs to birds to cats. I love being around animals and getting to know their unique quirks and traits! I work a part time job on the weekends only so I’ll have the entire week for availability! Just about any time works and I’m very open. My services will of course vary depending on your specifications for how you would like your animal to be taken care of, but my utmost concern would be making sure their needs are met.
“Matt was AMAZING with our pit/boxer mix, Frank. He was prompt and timely every day and posted lots of photos to help ease my “pet withdrawals” I will definitely use Matt on a regular basis and will recommend him to all of my dog parents. 10 out of 10 fantastic!!!”
“Macy has been a GREAT dog walker for me this week! She consistently walks a mile+ in the 30 minute bookings and gives my girl so much love! I will definitely be reaching back out to her with my future dog walking needs.”
About: I’ve had my own dog for the past 3 years, so I understand the real ups and downs of daily dog care from energetic playtime to calm routines and everything in between. Being a dog owner has taught me patience, responsibility, and how important it is to pay attention to each dog’s individual needs and personality. I treat every pet I care for like my own, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I work part-time so that gives me flexibility to provide attentive and reliable care for your pet. I plan my schedule carefully and only accept bookings I can fully commit to, making sure dogs receive consistent attention, regular potty breaks, meals, and companionship. I provide care in your pet’s own home to keep them comfortable and stress free. I do not offer boarding or have a fenced yard, but I’m happy to provide house sitting, drop-ins, daily visits, and walks. I always follow your instructions, keep dogs on leash during walks, and prioritize safety, routine, and attentive care at all times.

About: Hi, I'm Katherine, but you can call me Kee! I've been my neighbors' go-to sitter for the last 2 years, and have care for young and old, big and small. Before that I cared for my own dogs for 15 years before! I'm currently taking classes part-time, so I have plenty of time to walk, play with, feed, and generally keep your pet company throughout the day! I can fit well into your pet's normal home schedule, feeding, playing, and walking or letting them out as much as needed to best meet their needs.
About: I pay a lot of attention to detail, especially in routine, and what to give a person for his or hers specific needs! Also want as much information as possible to make sure your fur baby is comfortable! I’ve worked with puppies/kittens all the way up to senior animals! I do not work full work days (Only about six hours a day and only on the weekdays) I’m home every night and all weekend. My Home is set up as pet safe for any fur baby! I have transportation means to transport any fur baby, for dogs if you sign up for a longer walk I can make a trip to the dog park if you would like! (no additional cost and no restrictions) I have a camera to check up on all fur babies and I’m able to go home if anything is needed! I have my own dog, she is crate trained and leash trained (I have a spare room (basically a pet fun room) in my house so if it’s necessary any animals can be kept separate). I am in an apartment but I always make some car trips to the dog park about 4/5 days a week (and if requested for no additional cost) I also go on constant walks around the neighborhood every 3ish hours (besides when I work/sleep)
“Faith did great at walking my dog , she gave him a long hour long walk around my neighboorhood. He came back tired which was what i wanted ! she was very communicative as well will definitely reebok!”

About: I treat each pet as my own and will do whatever I can to make their stay comfortable and relaxing. We have a beautiful half acre fenced in yard perfect for your dog to run and play. I'm very caring for dogs and cats and have been taking care of animals for 10 years. I enjoy taking dogs out for walks and giving them exercise and making a bed for them on the couch or in our bed. I always joke that my children have four paws and I will treat your pets as if they are my own. With some pets being very anxious when their owners are not around, I make it my mission for the pet to feel relaxed and loved. If your pet prefers to have their own space we can accommodate for that as well! I've taken care of over 50 dogs throughout my life and can't wait to meet yours! I work from home so your fur baby will have someone with them at all times. Your baby is able to sleep the day away or help me run some meetings 😂 We have fenced in yard perfect for dogs to run and play. I have a kiddie pool as well for those hot summer days! If your pet doesn’t get a long well with cats, no worries. The cats have their own space in the basement or in a secluded room for the duration of the stay.
About: * DUE TO COVID I WILL BE WEARING A MASK AND GLOVES UPON ENTERING THE HOME* I’ve grown up with pets all my life and have a dog and 2 cats of my own. When I first tried Rover I was so nervous but ended up finding someone great it makes sense that if I was cautious to try then other people are too. I’m excited to take care of pets the way I want mine cared for. I believe that pets are family and leaving pets at home can be scary but my dog was so relaxed being able to stay where she is familiar with her surroundings and to just come home and jump back in to routine was a good feeling. It will be my personal goal to provide reassurance to both you and your companion while you’re away. At the beginning of 2022 I decided I wanted to be a dog trainer and am currently trying enrolled with Animal Behavior College to come a certified trainer. With this I've also completed the CPR certification for cats and dogs. My full time job was able to give me Fridays and Saturdays for the more likely chances for myself to give the care to family pets that I want for my animals. With my services I always do a check or other possible dogs around. If I am unable to cross the street of a passerby with a dog and safely I do so because I do not know the other dog well enough to know if it is okay. However if I am in a situation where I do have to pass another dog I speak up and ask if the dog is friendly while also being away of the pet I'm walking and how he or she is approaching.
About: As the saying goes, we truly do not deserve our pets. Most of us know this already. But our pets do deserve someone who not only recognizes this fact, but actively works to desperately earn that love and affection they shower us with day in and day out. I am that person :) I am currently between jobs with a bit of a financial cushion to keep me steady for a few months. This will fit in perfectly with my schedule because it’s completely free right now. I am in school right now for Human Services but that will not affect my work. My girl (Maggie) has her crate from when she was a puppy and that’s still very roomy for her, but she doesn’t use it really unless she’s pouting before i leave and she knows she’s not going with me. My house is very clean and she always has fresh water, plenty of potty breaks and lots of pets. Maggie is a bit of a ‘petmaxxer’ where she will consistently bother me until she receives enough pets, but let me tell you, there is never enough pets for her! She’s is my life.

“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!”
“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!”
“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.”
“We can't thank Kelly and Brian enough for the great care they give Lakota when she stays with them. She's always well cared for and makes herself right at home. We always miss our baby when we travel, the photos we receive while we're gone help bridge missing her. Lakota's next stay with Kelly and Brian is already booked.”
“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!”
“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! :)”
“Shannon was great! Great communication and tons of pictures. She is very friendly and attentive my dog had a great time I can definitely tell she took excellent care of my dog and will def book in future.”

“Andrea is great! She’s an excellent communicator and was wonderful and loving with my two active dogs. They got so much exercise in and trusted Andrea for sure. For their few chill moments, Andrea ensured they had several places to snuggle up in, whether that was by her feet, in her lap, on a blanket surrounded by toys, or in a safe space from home. She followed my care instructions well and asked questions when needed. I know they had the best time and would be more than happy to stay again. Thanks, Andrea!!”
“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!”
“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!”
“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!”
“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.”
“Josilyn was able to take my dog last minute and watch him for a few days after our first plan fell through. She took great care of our boi and he seemed to have a really good time with her.”
“We appreciate Marilyn! She loves mylo and he always has a great time. Highly recommend her services, she always stays in touch and sends pictures.”
“We never met Kelly but we met her husband. Helix seemed happy when we picked her up and they had a huge fenced in backyard for running around! Thanks again!”
