Benny also received a grooming from Christine because she happens to also be a 12 year veteran groomer! In addition to his training while he was at Christine’s home he came back clean and happy! She sent photos that reminded me of homeward bound when Benny went in the yard with the other dog friends. Christine is a compassionate woman and has a loving and safe home for the pups. 1000% rebooking.”

Making sure to stop the bleeding and accessing the situation. She also made sure to call my vet, but it was before they opened.

About: I have been caring for dogs and cats for over 27 years. Having grown up with pets and assisted neighbors, friends, and family since childhood, I’ve developed a naturally calming presence that animals truly respond to. I specialize in making pets feel secure and relaxed, which is especially helpful for animals that may get anxious when their owners are away. My care is thorough and heartfelt. I’m experienced with everything from high-energy play and long walks to the "spoiled" side of pet life—plenty of back and belly rubs, baths, and quality companionship. I also have extensive experience with cats, including maintaining strict feeding schedules, refreshing water, and ensuring litter boxes are kept perfectly clean. Whether your pet needs an active buddy or a quiet, gentle soul to keep them company, I treat every animal with the same love and attention I give my own.
“So grateful that Scott was available to do drop in visits for me. I know Benji appreciated all the snuggles and fetch time. I also really appreciated all of the photos, they always brightened my day.”
“Everything went great. The cats were well taken care of, communication was good throughout, and everything was handled exactly as requested. Reliable and easy to work with. Highly recommended.”
About: I’ve cared for animals since I was 8 and grew up with three dogs, a cat, and a leopard gecko. I also have experience riding and caring for horses. I’m comfortable with pets of all sizes and personalities and can provide walks, feeding, playtime, bathing, and plenty of love and attention. I’ll treat your pets like my own and keep you updated while they’re in my care! As a full-time college student, I have a flexible schedule that allows plenty of time for pet care. I’m available Monday and Wednesday mornings, Friday afternoons and evenings, and have open availability on Saturdays and Sundays. I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine whenever possible! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’ll carefully follow their normal routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions you provide. I’m attentive, dependable, and will make sure your pet receives plenty of love and supervision while in my care.
“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!”
“This was my first time using Rover and I’m so glad to have had the fortune of booking Alivia. Alivia was just exceptional at communication and even earned the affection of my extremely shy cat in just a matter of days. The litter and food tasks were done to a tee and she even went out of her way to drop the litter trash down the street at the neighborhood dumpster. Could not be happier with my experience.”
“Risa was so easy to work with! Her response time was quick, scheduling was easy, and she did everything asked of her. My cat seemed happy when we returned and our place was in great shape. Would definitely recommend!”
About: Whether your cat needs fresh food and water, litter box care, playtime, medication, or simply someone to keep them company while you're away, I'll provide patient, loving care tailored to their needs. I have a special place in my heart for shy, anxious, and senior cats and know how important it is to keep their routine consistent and stress-free. I'll make sure your cat feels safe, comfortable, and cared for in your absence.

About: Hi, My name is Sydney S. I'm 25 years old and recently graduated with my Master's degree in Speech-Language Pathology from Francis Marion University in Florence, SC. Originally from Albany, OH, I spent 22 years there and graduated from Alexander High School. I have recently relocated to Jacksonville for a Speech Pathology position at Greater Strides Rehabilitation. Animals have always been a big part of my life; I have about 20 years of experience caring for them. My family has two cats named Tuesday and Regean, and two dogs named Sam and Kong. I have a 4-year-old dog named Niles, who lives with me at my apartment. My pet-sitting experience includes dogs, cats, lizards, rabbits, snakes, and hamsters. I'm excited about this new chapter in my career and life in Jacksonville. Thank you for considering my application. I look forward to the opportunity to connect soon. As a Speech Pathologist with a regular Monday to Friday work schedule, I can dedicate my early mornings, evenings, and weekends to pet care. I'm comfortable with a variety of tasks like feeding, administering medication, and providing exercise and playtime. My flexible schedule allows me to give pets the attention they need while their owners are away. I'm also happy to send updates and photos to keep owners informed about their pets' day. I enjoy spending time with animals and find pet care to be a rewarding way to supplement my income. Whether in my home or the client's home, I prioritize providing a safe, comfortable environment for pets. In my apartment, Niles my 4-year-old dog keeps me company. I can accommodate dogs and cats, and potentially small caged pets. I have pet beds, toys, and supplies available. In the client's home, I respect their space and routines. I'll follow their instructions for feeding, medication, and exercise. I'm comfortable with mail collection, plant watering, and light housekeeping to keep the home secure and tidy. I'll send updates about the pet's day and be available for any concerns. My goal is to give pets the care they need and owners peace of mind while they're away. I'm flexible and want to work with each client to create a custom plan that works best for them and their pets.
“Tayler is just so genuine and wonderful. I had a lot of peace of mind leaving my boy in her care with the added bonus that she’s a Vet Tech. Would absolutely make her my regular cat sitter.”
“Sandra did a great job caring for our cat. She was comfortable giving his inhaler and spent lots of quality time with him during each visit. She also kept the litter box tidy and took care of things when he wasn’t feeling well. We’re grateful for her help and that we came home to a happy and well-loved cat!”
“There’s a reason Evan has a perfect rating. He was able to take care of my cat with only 12 hours notice. It was an unexpected/emergency trip so there was no advanced planning but Evan rolled with it, found everything - food, litter, the house key (!) It really was last minute. Evan even loaded and ran the dishwasher for us so that we didn’t walk into a disaster Highly recommend Evan!”

“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.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs the majority of my life. I truly enjoy dog-sitting, I find that walking is great for both parties and the dogs that are in my life, I tend to them as if I had kids. Some people say that dogs aren’t people but I have to disagree.. they have the same feelings and emotions we do and it’s so uncanny, dogs surprise me everyday. I am willing to work with any owner who has certain requests say, if you’re training your dog or have them on a specific regimen. I am also open to a bit of dog grooming as my services will enhance as I progress. I’m sure you’ll be more than satisfied and I can’t wait to meet your loved one!
“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!”
“Excellent!!! Fozzie's behavior when I picked him up spoke for the great time he had. Fozzie said hi to me in usual happy fashion, yet did not want to leave. Normally, Fozzie is ready to leave wherever he is and doesn't speak to me. He actually ignores me until we get into the car. Her big brown lab was a sweet heart and her cats let Fozzie sniff them, too. Adriana, welcomed me all the way inside her home. The living room was set up for a place for pets to lay & relax; there were multiple cushions on the floor. Her back yard is fenced with ample room for running & playing, with a good size pool for pup swimming. When I came in to pick him up, she didn't rush me out. I bonded with the big guy with lots of rubbing & scratching; Fozzie wasn't his usual jealous self, getting between me and the pet I was petting. This was a very unique experience; it was great. Anytime we are in Jacksonville, FL, I know where Fozzie is going.”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs and other pets for years and truly love spending time with animals of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Whether your pet enjoys long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply a calm and comfortable environment, I’ll make sure they receive personalized care and plenty of attention. I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust with your furry family member, and I treat every pet as if they were my own. My goal is to keep them safe, happy, loved, and comfortable while giving you peace of mind that they’re in great hands. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. I work from home, so I’m able to provide pets with plenty of attention, companionship, potty breaks, and playtime throughout the day. I have a friendly 2-year-old pug who loves meeting new friends, a fully fenced backyard for safe outdoor play, and a walking trail right outside my neighborhood for daily walks and exercise. I enjoy making sure every pet feels safe, loved, and right at home while they’re in my care. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I have a secure, fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely play and explore under supervision. My home is clean, pet-friendly, and provides a calm environment where your dog can relax. I have a friendly 2-year-old pug who enjoys the company of other dogs, but I always introduce pets gradually to ensure everyone is comfortable. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, medications, exercise, and routines, and I’m happy to crate your dog if that’s part of their normal schedule. I’ll also keep you updated with regular photos and messages so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.

About: As a pet owner, I know how important it is to have your furbaby well taken care of when you're not around. My two pups have since passed away and while I'm not ready to add another to the family, I would love to puppysit yours! I can administer meds, feed, walk, and play with your dog. I also have four young children who adore animals and would shower your pup with love and endless playtime. When your dog stays with us, it becomes part of the family. I believe it should be that way because that's how I would want my dog taken care of when I'm out of town. I am currently a stay at home mom so my time is flexible and I am home a lot. Your dog won't be lonely and will get plenty of pets, cuddles, and playtime. When your pup visits us, they become part of the family.

“Millie did great with my little one! He was immediately comfortable with her. This was my first time using Rover so I was very nervous leaving him with a complete stranger. She provided me pictures of him enjoying his stay. When I return to this area I will definitely bring my Fudge to Millie instead of boarding him at home now that I know he has a safe, clean and comfortable home to stay in. I recommend Millie 100%!”

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 had pets all my life. From guinea pigs to chihuahuas to pitties. I’ve yet to meet an animal I didn’t like and I don’t plan to ever. I spend time volunteering at the local Humane Society to learn how to better care for animals like yours. I’m a full time student looking to make most of my income here on Rover. I also spend a few hours a week at the Humane Society. I've had animals as long as I've been self-aware. My family dogs include a senior chihuahua and a 7 year old pittie. At home, my family includes two kitties, Moomin (5) and Toro (1), who are both from the Jacksonville Humane Society! They are my pride and joy and I consider them my sons. I work well with all pets. Doesn’t matter if they’re skittish or energetic. Please do not hesitate to let me know the specifics of your pet’s care needs. It is my duty to cater to their personality! Additionally, I will be sure to send lots of pictures to update you while you’re away.

“Katherine was great with our boys! She is very quick to reply to messages and sends updates after all the walks. Very friendly. We are so grateful to have found her.”
About: I've loved and cared for animals for as long as I can remember. I grew up in a farm in PR. Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me to feed, walk, play with, and care for their pets while they were away. I understand that every animal has a unique personality, and I take the time to earn their trust at their own pace. I'm especially patient with shy, anxious, or senior pets and believe they deserve gentle, compassionate care. Whether it's keeping your pet active with walks and playtime or simply keeping them company and maintaining their routine, I'll treat them with the same love and attention I give my own. My goal is to make sure both you and your pet feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while you're apart. I also speak fluent Spanish, some Portuguese I do work a full time job as an optician (15 years) but looking into going to college for animal pshycology and behavior. Im available mostly weekends right now and some weekdays. My happiest is when I'm surrounded with animals since I grew up in a farm in PR it's been my dream to create a sanctuary for all animals. Right now not offering services in my home. I share my home with my sweet dog, Alice, who has taught me a great deal about patience, positive reinforcement, and understanding different personalities. And my beautiful affectionate senior cat, ophilia, who can't get enough cuddles and treats ❤️
About: I’ve been house and pet sitting for many years to help my family and friends. It’s time to be rewarded for my love for animals and be paid by others for my services. It’s hard to find good “customer service” these days; I am the opposite, your pets will get great service/attention from ME! Bonus: my career has been as an Administrative Assistant so I’m very organized and can assist with other things too, if needed, requested and discussed. I am currently unemployed and have all the time in the world to care for my pet and yours. Toodles of course would stay home. Toodles is an inside cat. She is proven healthy and well fed, I clean the litter box and her food bowls daily. She gets treats and love. We just bought her a new perch to watch the birds and lizards outside the window. In someone else’s home with their pets, I care for them exactly as asked. Walks, feed, love, crate (if necessary), it is what the client wants that their pet shall get!

About: Hi! Im Danielle,! I grew up around a variety of animals- horses, bunnies, parrots dogs and cats! My dream is to open up a rescue/shelter because no animal deserves to go without a loving home. My boyfriend and I have 5 cats -3 boys and two girls as well as our pit mix which we rescued who are our heart and soul and they truly saved us. We both grew up around animals and the love we have for all walks of life is what drives me to give your pets the best care possible ! What sets me apart from others is the genuine love and kindness I have for animals because each and everyone has a back story and they all deserved to be loved the same.

I love giving the chance to provide owners with comfort and stress free care because your fur babies mean just as much to me as they do to you! When caring for your pets in your home, I treat your space how I would expect mine to be treated and that’s with respect. By ensuring that I keep same routine that your fur baby is used to will make sure that they feel comfortable because meeting someone new can be nerve wracking. I make sure pets get plenty of love, attention, and are loved as if they were my own — and I keep you updated with messages and plenty of photos so you know your pet is happy and safe. I stick to your pet’s usual schedule for walks, feedings, playtime, and potty breaks to keep things familiar and stress-free. I follow all instructions provided and always double-check things like food portions, medication (if needed), and security (locked doors, gates, etc. Clean-up and tidiness are a priority too; I leave your space just as I found it, or better.
About: As a toddler until I was 10, we had dacshaunds. I loved them so but when you discover them after they have passed, it leaves an impression on you. This type of impression has led a part of my life to educating, advocating, and nursing but a dog owner, I won't become. I've lived with the problem Doberman-Rottweilers, smaller schnauzers, cutesy Italian Greyhound AND I pet most every pup I see (with permission, of course). I've had and have cats, from 2 months to 24 years old. I would love to visit and care for the cats and dogs if my community. Reach out! I'd love to meet your pet baby. I work virtually 4 days a week and have a lot of flexibility. This allows me the ability to watch pets, and care for my own. I have 4 indoor cats and a myriad of outdoor cats. I play with them, feed them and provide then with their favorite snacks: Churus. Cleaning up the box during each visit is a given considering cats need a neat space. For dogs, I would make sure to have bags to get their waste and keep snacks to make sure their given something for good behavior.
About: I have fostered cats and kittens for approximately ten years, and know the commitment, awareness, and love it takes to connect with animals of all personality types. I have two cats of my own that were foster-fails, so I am very well versed in the needs of all different kinds of cats, and I will apply the same loving care and attention I provide to my own to your pets. I am extremely aware and will always focus on the safety of your pet. I grew up with two dogs as well, and have plenty of personal experience caring for dogs. I grew up pet sitting and dog walking for neighbors on top of my own dogs. I truly love animals, and want to spend my free time taking care of them. You can trust me with your cats and dogs! I'm currently working part-time, so when I am not doing that I have plenty of time to spare taking care of your pets! I am available on weekends, after work, and the weekdays I am not working. I will be respectful of your home and your pets, always! You can trust me to know that your home and animals are left in safe and trusting care.

Which was really appreciated, she really cares and it shows. My Lili was treated well, as if she were at home with me🩷. I highly recommend using Kira. I would use her again!😁”

“Amazing experience! Cynthia took our dog last minute as we were out of town on vacation and our grandmother passed away and so we had to fly out that next morning from Florida. She sent so many great updates. On short notice I went to her house and met her and she made me feel so comfortable leaving my baby with her for a few days! My dog felt right at home and wasn’t depressed. Cynthia is a true dog lover and will let your dog make themselves right at home and not have them locked up in a kennel! Would definitely use her again! Thank you!”
