“Kelly was great! She took good care of my frenchie. She provided daily updates and pictures of my dog during his stay. I am very satisfied with the service provided. Thanks you, Kelly!”
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).
“Hannah and her husband were super responsive, flexible, and we could tell our dog really enjoyed her nearly week-long stay. Our dog is afraid of fireworks and storms and they were able to help her be very comfortable despite it being a stormy 4th of July weekend! We returned to a very happy and relaxed dog. They sent photos and even a video during her stay, and we felt totally at ease that she was 100% well taken care of and given lots of love.”
“Shannon was super flexible with the times I needed and even allowed me to bring over pongos items the day before! She sent pictures the entire time of his stay which really put my mind at ease! She also has 2 other dogs that Pongo got to run around with while he was there. I know he had a blast and Shannon was phenomenal! She will be my go to for any over night stays!”
“Megan babysat our Sophie girl with such care and kindness. Sophie came back loved and exhausted in the best way after meeting her new doggy best friends! We’re so thankful for Megan’s great care.”
“The moment Zoie and I met Marlena I knew I made the right decision for my pup. Marlena is an animal lover, very sweet and kind. We will definitely re-book with Marlena 🩷”
“Kaitland watched my dog for over a week and the experience couldn't have been better. She had a great environment to board with 2 really friendly dogs and very friendly kids! She was knowledgeable and excellent with new animals and I am 1000% going to use her again as my go to sitter.”
“Andrea was great! I could tell the Breck loved staying with her. She was giving me updates and sending pictures all throughout his stay so I always knew how he was doing. I highly recommend Andrea for a sitter”
“Bryce was very attentive and sent pictures daily. He had our pup for about a week and I had no complaints. He is flexible and responds quickly. Would definitely use again!”
“Wendy was everything we hoped she'd be. She gave us multiple updates on our dogs status and multiple pics per day. I would use her again without hesitation.”
“Jerome and his sweet shepherd girl took great care of our Prairie girl. Nice fenced yard for the girls to run and play together. Jerome S. sent great action photos of Prairie with her new best friends. It is comforting to be able to find terrific pet care takers through Rover.com.”
“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!”
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.
“Rocco had a wonderful stay with Kelly. He enjoyed the fenced yard, pool time, and plenty of one-on-one attention. We felt confident he was safe, loved, and well cared for, and we look forward to booking with her 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!”
“Patti and William were great with Georgia! They took really good care of her, sent updates and cute photos, and were super kind and easy to communicate with. I’d definitely book with them again 😊”
“Larry was such a great sitter for Rusty! I recently adopted Ruaty and wanted him to be in a place he would feel comfortable in while I was out of town. Larry was the perfect fit, he has the land to run around and a safe space to relax, and even worked with Rusty on the training we have been working on. I would recommend Larry to anyone looking for a great sitter for their dog!!”
About: Had dogs since I was a little kid, had a yellow lab myself, would love to have my own but can't right now due to work, but can definitely have them during the weekend. Most weekends I stay local in Jacksonville, I love to go out to the beach and for walks on trails. My weekends are pretty open. My week days are taken by work but free friday-sunday. My home, got a fenced in yard, plenty of space to play fetch and run around. We could be outside playing or inside catching a movie and relaxing.
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Bogey’s New Favorite Human! We’re so thankful to have found Edward B. for our English Lab, Bogey. He can be a bit bougie (especially about his water—filtered only, of course 😄), and Edward embraced his quirks with so much love and patience. We got daily updates, adorable photos, and sweet little notes that made us feel completely at ease while we were away. When we picked him up, he was calm, happy, and clearly very well cared for. It’s such a relief knowing we have someone we can trust 100% with our pup. Thank you, Edward , for loving Bogey like your own. We’ll absolutely be booking again!!”

“As always my baby’s were taken very good care of. Cheyenne is absolute amazing . My Savannah cat won’t go to no one (except us) and gives kisses except her .truly amazing and thanks for the gift Luna loves it ❤️”
“Hirono is an absolute rock star and we are so happy we found her to check in on our cat for us when we are away for several days at a time. You can tell she is a true cat lover. She is super dependable, easy to work with, remembers things well, and we LOVE that she always sends us several pictures and an update when she comes to visit our cat. We have a super shy cat, yet he warmed up to her very quickly, so she has been a perfect fit for what we needed. She will continue to be our first call when we need someone to care for our cat. Thanks for everything, Hirono!”
About: I was raised with 6 cats and have always had at least 2! I’ve fostered kittens and also taken care of seniors. I’m known for feeding neighborhood cats and loving a good cuddle or play sesh! I currently have 2 rescue cats that love our window bird/squirrel feeder!
About: I currently live with just 1 dog. Her name is Willow, she is super friendly and loves all other dogs and animals. I am an avid walker, I take my dog on frequent walks. I try to make sure she walks 3 miles a day, because she is an incredibly active dog. I take care of the dogs on a daily basis and I am home from college, so I do not have anything else to attend to throughout the day. I make sure pets have plenty of water, potty breaks every hour to two hours, so they have no accidents inside the house. They will have my full attention to make sure they do not get into anything that may upset their stomach. I currently have 1 dog. I walk my dog every morning and every night with potty breaks throughout the day. I find it crucial to be able to have enough outside time for walking, doing their business, and letting them sniff around. I currently live in an apartment with sidewalks to walk your animal when needed. There is a dog run less than 4 miles from my apartment. I also have access to a dog crate if needed.
“Robin is absolutely great. We moved to Jacksonville not knowing anyone and we travel a good bit. We were worried about finding someone to watch our cat but we met Robin and are able to travel whenever without having to worry about finding someone to watch her. Robin is super reliable and I’d recommend her to anyone!”
“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.”

“I was worried because that was the first time Demi, my cat was going aways for a few days to a different home. Megan sent daily photos, videos and updates that put my mind at rest. The cat was happy and relaxed when picked up. I would rebook and I strongly recommend her services.”
“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!!!”
“This is the third time we have hired Lexi in the last six weeks.... and there is a reason she has become our "go-to" sitter -- our kitties love her, and she does a great job. There is not much we can say that has not already been written in prior reviews -- we are very happy having Lexi take care of our home and our cats while we are out of town. :-)”

“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! 🐶🐾🎀”
“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!”

As a stay-at-home mom, I’m home daily to give pets constant love, attention, and care. Walks, lots of playtime, and snuggles naturally fit into our routine. In my home, pets get a safe, calm space for supervision, playtime and love. I follow their routine closely-walks, feeding, meds, and crate time if needed.
About: I've been taking care of animals my whole life, dogs, cats and a few wild animals too. My friends and family all have animals and I'm usually asked to watch them. I am currently going back to online school, so I will have plenty of time to hang out with your pets and give them plenty of attention. I also live very close to several vets in case of emergency and close to the airport for easy drop off and pickup if you're flying. All pets are unique so I like to follow their lead in what they want and need. My yard is fenced in with cameras, I have a senior female dog and younger male dog who love making friends. I've crate trained several dogs before so crating is no problem. For cat owners cleaning litter boxes is no problem for me.
“Anne was amazing!! I honestly was a little nervous leaving my puppy for the first time, but she kept me updated throughout the day! Would definitely recommend her to anyone!”
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.

About: Hi! My name is Marsha. I have never owned a pet, but many have owned me. Each has a story and each stole a piece of my heart. I currently have a retriever (Gracie) that the grandchildren found in my backyard. She is the hostess with the mostest when it comes to other fur babies. I also have a cat (Jill) who was a part of a set found by my husband at a dumpster. I recently fostered a German Shephard (Smoki), but fell in love and added her to our family. I have some time on my hands and would like to fill that time with something I enjoy. I love puppies, energetic tweens and elders with love left to give. Whether it's a visit, a walk, or play I would love to help.
“Linda was OUTSTANDING...providing last-minute care for my dachshund mix while I was visiting the island for family vacation. She responded promptly, sent lots of updates and pictures, and was very accommodating to our travel schedule. She is located a short distance from many hotels and resorts on Amelia island so it was no problem to drop and pick up my pup. I would definitely book her again and give her my highest recommendation. Rocky loved her too!”
“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: 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’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.

“Shannon has been awesome with our two pups!! She is very reliable and goes above and beyond during her visits. We look forward to our pups’ walks with Shannon and I’m sure they do to!! We highly recommend her services!”

There are water bowls all throughout the house as well, along with toys and lots of littles that are ready to play fetch and snuggle with your pup. “The Littles know, boundaries, respect animals, and know when enough is enough. They have a large heart for animals just like I do. I’d say it runs in the family.💕.” • Drop in visit- I can visit fish, lizards, cats, hamsters all the animals that are able to stay at home. I have my knowledge on small pets/fish and reptiles etc. and your baby(s) will be under good supervision. •I am noticeably light on rules, there on vacation too, no need to be strict “Unless you would prefer them to stay on their schedule/ and have them follow the rules that you established.” •For sleeping arrangements, some may sleep in their crate, some may sleep in the living room, office, or my bedroom. Some may sleep in their crate “Parents Advisory” I do not care where they lay, they shall get comfortable wherever their heart desires. •We will take care of your pets the way we would want our pets to be loved! Pets aren’t just pets they are members of your family and I’ll treat them as such. They are deserving of love, and that’s how I and my family will treat them! I will follow all the instructions given and make sure your pets are safe and well taken care of! Please feel free to communicate if you have any concerns!
“Anne was amazing with Ocean! She kept us up to date and sent over lots of pics. We are new puppy parents so we were super nervous about leaving her behind for the first time but Anne put our minds at ease. She was awesome!”
About: Let me welcome your furry family members into my home where they'll be treated like family! With over 12 years of professional pet care experience, I can handle anything thrown my way. With my brindle mix Felix and my blonde bombshell CJ by my side we set a new standard for pet care! I have experience with dogs from under 5 pounds to well over 100 pounds and with most breeds. I also have experience administering medications, cpr, and with special needs. As a military wife I look to uphold the highest standards in my home and understand the stress of leaving your pets. We offer updates multiple times a day and "report cards" at the end of each day for every dog that stays with us. Let us make our home your furry friends home away from home! I am a house wife with an open schedule so I am very flexible. I love spending time with animals so this was the perfect way for me to do that. I live in a small apartment so I am no stranger to creative ways to exercise and enrich animals of all shapes and sizes. I strive to offer the safest and most advantageous time with your animals as I can.

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.

“Kelly was great! She took good care of my frenchie. She provided daily updates and pictures of my dog during his stay. I am very satisfied with the service provided. Thanks you, Kelly!”
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).
“Hannah and her husband were super responsive, flexible, and we could tell our dog really enjoyed her nearly week-long stay. Our dog is afraid of fireworks and storms and they were able to help her be very comfortable despite it being a stormy 4th of July weekend! We returned to a very happy and relaxed dog. They sent photos and even a video during her stay, and we felt totally at ease that she was 100% well taken care of and given lots of love.”
“Shannon was super flexible with the times I needed and even allowed me to bring over pongos items the day before! She sent pictures the entire time of his stay which really put my mind at ease! She also has 2 other dogs that Pongo got to run around with while he was there. I know he had a blast and Shannon was phenomenal! She will be my go to for any over night stays!”
“Megan babysat our Sophie girl with such care and kindness. Sophie came back loved and exhausted in the best way after meeting her new doggy best friends! We’re so thankful for Megan’s great care.”
“The moment Zoie and I met Marlena I knew I made the right decision for my pup. Marlena is an animal lover, very sweet and kind. We will definitely re-book with Marlena 🩷”
“Kaitland watched my dog for over a week and the experience couldn't have been better. She had a great environment to board with 2 really friendly dogs and very friendly kids! She was knowledgeable and excellent with new animals and I am 1000% going to use her again as my go to sitter.”
“Andrea was great! I could tell the Breck loved staying with her. She was giving me updates and sending pictures all throughout his stay so I always knew how he was doing. I highly recommend Andrea for a sitter”
“Bryce was very attentive and sent pictures daily. He had our pup for about a week and I had no complaints. He is flexible and responds quickly. Would definitely use again!”
“Wendy was everything we hoped she'd be. She gave us multiple updates on our dogs status and multiple pics per day. I would use her again without hesitation.”
“Jerome and his sweet shepherd girl took great care of our Prairie girl. Nice fenced yard for the girls to run and play together. Jerome S. sent great action photos of Prairie with her new best friends. It is comforting to be able to find terrific pet care takers through Rover.com.”
“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!”
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.
“Rocco had a wonderful stay with Kelly. He enjoyed the fenced yard, pool time, and plenty of one-on-one attention. We felt confident he was safe, loved, and well cared for, and we look forward to booking with her 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!”
About: Had dogs since I was a little kid, had a yellow lab myself, would love to have my own but can't right now due to work, but can definitely have them during the weekend. Most weekends I stay local in Jacksonville, I love to go out to the beach and for walks on trails. My weekends are pretty open. My week days are taken by work but free friday-sunday. My home, got a fenced in yard, plenty of space to play fetch and run around. We could be outside playing or inside catching a movie and relaxing.
“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Bogey’s New Favorite Human! We’re so thankful to have found Edward B. for our English Lab, Bogey. He can be a bit bougie (especially about his water—filtered only, of course 😄), and Edward embraced his quirks with so much love and patience. We got daily updates, adorable photos, and sweet little notes that made us feel completely at ease while we were away. When we picked him up, he was calm, happy, and clearly very well cared for. It’s such a relief knowing we have someone we can trust 100% with our pup. Thank you, Edward , for loving Bogey like your own. We’ll absolutely be booking again!!”
“Alicia is the best!!! My rue girl was so comfortable and felt so at home you’d think Alicia was her owner! I have never felt safe leaving rue before however this time with her being in Alicia’s care there wasn’t a worry in my mind! Definitely will be a reoccurring guest ❤️!”
