“Second time Kaitland takes care of my dogs. Always so kind, nice and patient (my great dane has lots of energy and is strong). Definitely you want Kaitland to petsit your pets!”
“Marlena and her husband took care of our puppy as if she was an extended part of their family. We are so thankful that we were able to relax and enjoy our vacation and not worry about whether she was okay. We got many pictures and updates of our baby running around and living her best life. Now she's exhausted from her vacation and snoring on the couch! We will definitely use Marlena anytime we need a sitter.”
“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!”
“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!”
“Sayla loves every trip she has to Shannon's. She plays so hard it takes her a whole day of rest to recoup! Wonderful to have someone to trust for our girl.”
“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!”
“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.”
“My Kaviar enjoys every minute with Wendy and her family. Wendy provides exceptional care and provides photos of Kaviar everyday. When I leave Kaviar with Wendy,I know he will be cared for as I would, and will be cherished as family.”
“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!”
“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.”
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❤️
“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 ❤️!”
“Our dog spent a week with Linda and the two of them fell in love with each other! Linda was so kind and caring and followed though with all our requests for our very spoiled baby. She even sent us pictures of the two of them together. We'll definitely have her take care of our dog in the future.”
“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!”
“Boarding my 2 dogs with Andrea was the best decision I could have made with the circumstances! My husband and I went out of the country and had no service so we would not have been able to keep in touch in case of emergency or accident which did make us nervous based on previous experiences, however, Andrea did a meet and greet with us before our trip and was super understanding about the situation. She still sent daily updates and pictures and videos that I was able to see upon return. She took the time to give feedback on things that worked for her as a sitter to overcome obstacles that came along with our dogs! She was very knowledgeable when it came to caring for them and did an amazing job with their medical needs as well as general needs! She was transparent with us and I could tell that our dogs were comfortable with her and had a good time while we were away. I will DEFINITELY be booking with Andrea again in the future.”
“Imani was great, to say the least. Due to last minute plans, I needed a sitter for the 4th of July and I'd gone through several inquiries before reaching out to Imani. She was immediately responsive and was available to board my baby. Usually I like to do a meet & greet prior to drop off and while she does offer that, I was so last minute with my plans until time didn't allow us that opportunity. After chatting with Imani and mentioning my concerns about the fireworks with the added complexity that my dog would be in an unfamiliar place for the night, Imani assured me Jinger would be in great hands and that she was prepared to give him the care and any additional attention he may have needed. Although Jinger only stayed for the night, I feel like he now has a 2nd family. Imani sent several photos and I could tell Jinger had made himself right at home. Imani's boys were an added bonus. We have small boys at home and Jinger loves them to pieces. I could tell he took to her family just the same. The boys didn't want him to leave but I promised he'd be back. Thank you tremendously, Imani!”
“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 😊”
“Jerome took great care of my dog and always kept me informed of how she was doing. I highly recommend Jerome and will rebook next time I'm in need of a rover.”

“As ALWAYS…Our little Jake and Merry Were in the best of care with Haley❣️She is wonderful with keeping them company and helping them not feel anxious. She always sends as many photos and I can see they are getting so much affection with her. They are always well fed and watered and such happy fur babies each time she cares for them. A BIG “THANKS A MILLION “ to Haley!”
“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.”

Isis was so friendly, dependable and great at communicating things to me..we will definitely be looking to book her to take care of our kitty again our next vacation!”
“Hirono did a fantastic job caring for my four cats for a weekend trip away. She communicated well, was punctual for 2x/day visits, and put me completely at ease leaving my babies in her capable hands. I've never had a catsitter who scooped the litterbox during visits, so I felt that was an amazing touch. I very much enjoyed my first booking with Rover; the daily report cards and pictures were so cute and much appreciated, and I would definitely rebook with Hirono again. Thank you!”
“Kee is awesome! She’s very communicative, went above and beyond, and took great care of our babies! Will definitely use her services again! Thanks, Kee!”
“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. :-)”
“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!!!”
“Charlotte was amazing. Very communicative and very flexible with my schedule when things took a last minute turn on both ends of our trip. Would highly recommend. She was amazing with our two furious furries!”
“Tania was straight forward, it was very easy to meet her and hire her. She made constant contact when showing go to my property to check in on my cat while I was away. I would definitely recommend and book her again.”

“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.”
“Kylie was fantastic with our cat! She sent a ton of photos and gave updates frequently. We were traveling on short notice and our normal sitter was unavailable, Kylie was able to accommodate us and we couldn't have been happier with her. Highly recommended!”
“Cheyenne was fantastic! She was great about being in contact throughout the week and took a lot of pictures. We will 100% use her services again and would highly recommend that you use her services as well. Thank you again, Cheyenne. You took so much stress off of us so we could enjoy our trip.”

“Atlas had so much fun with Nhi! She was flexible and communicated with me every step of the way! She also got some amazing pictures of my Atlas! If I’m ever in Jacksonville in the future, I’m sure Atlas would love to hangout with her again!”
“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”
“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.”
“My two dogs loved going to daycare with Megan! She was very good at providing care suited to their inidividual temperaments-- my Tate is an independent explorer, and she allowed him to do his thing, while my little Bea is more timid, so she gave her a quieter space where she could relax while she was getting used to the other dogs before she warmed up and was ready to interact. Megan kept me updated with photos and videos so I knew my pups were well cared for and enjoying themselves. I would highly recommend Megan!”
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).
“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.”
“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 have experience watching both cats and dogs for over 10 years, some being my own and mostly others!

I also have had two cats with health issues so I am well versed in specialized care for them as well. I look forward to meeting your babies! I am a student currently with a fairly flexible schedule. 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❤️
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.

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 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.

“Haley is absolutely amazing!!! She has been accommodating with last minute requests and also responds within minutes. Would definitely recommend her to everyone :)”
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!!!”
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.
About: I've had animals my whole life. Dogs, cats, birds, lizards, chinchillas, and more. I currently have two dogs who are living the good life, with no worries in the world. Sleep, play, eat, repeat. Pet care IS a part of my routine. Almost everything I do starts with the question: what's gonna happen to my dogs and cat? Can they come with me? Do I need a friend to check on them? Etc. My pets come first. I treat every animal as if it were mine. When I'm entrusted with friend's and family's pets, I am willing to go above and beyond to treat them the same as my own pets. They get to sleep, play, eat just like my pets do.

“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: 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)
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.
“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: New here to Oceanway, hometown VA, and I'm a military spouse. Looking to fill my free time with your furry friend. Currently working PT, so I am able to meet a lot of requirements during the day. I owned my first pup (yellow lab) at the age of 19 and he Reed lived for 12.5 years under my care. That’s where I learned responsibility, patience, love, and companionship for my four legged friend. I am available to sit, walk, talk, and play with your pet. The services I can provide= Special needs, separation anxiety attention, food, hugs, butt scratches, treats, and tons of belly rubs. Very outgoing, love to be outdoors, running, working out, and I own a bike if your pet loves bike rides (basket not included) I look forward to providing a positive experience for you and your pet! I am working part time and able to provide any needs you are requesting. Depending on your distance from me, I am willing to go over multiple times a day. I am not looking to stay at anyone’s home, but I am willing to go over multiples time in a day to walk, feed, and fulfill any needs requested. I have a senior dog who is on medication so I prefer to be home due to his excessive urination. I have a fenced yard if you’re dog is friendly and I can host them at my home.
“2 more walks with Nancy = happy dogs & happy owner. :-) She sends great notes in her Rover card, keeping me abreast of any issues she notices with my dogs. She is a very caring dog walker.”
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.

“Marlena and her husband took care of our puppy as if she was an extended part of their family.

“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!”
“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.”
“My Kaviar enjoys every minute with Wendy and her family. Wendy provides exceptional care and provides photos of Kaviar everyday. When I leave Kaviar with Wendy,I know he will be cared for as I would, and will be cherished as family.”
“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!”
“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.”

“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 ❤️!”
“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!”
“Boarding my 2 dogs with Andrea was the best decision I could have made with the circumstances! My husband and I went out of the country and had no service so we would not have been able to keep in touch in case of emergency or accident which did make us nervous based on previous experiences, however, Andrea did a meet and greet with us before our trip and was super understanding about the situation. She still sent daily updates and pictures and videos that I was able to see upon return. She took the time to give feedback on things that worked for her as a sitter to overcome obstacles that came along with our dogs! She was very knowledgeable when it came to caring for them and did an amazing job with their medical needs as well as general needs! She was transparent with us and I could tell that our dogs were comfortable with her and had a good time while we were away. I will DEFINITELY be booking with Andrea again in the future.”
“Imani was great, to say the least. Due to last minute plans, I needed a sitter for the 4th of July and I'd gone through several inquiries before reaching out to Imani. She was immediately responsive and was available to board my baby. Usually I like to do a meet & greet prior to drop off and while she does offer that, I was so last minute with my plans until time didn't allow us that opportunity. After chatting with Imani and mentioning my concerns about the fireworks with the added complexity that my dog would be in an unfamiliar place for the night, Imani assured me Jinger would be in great hands and that she was prepared to give him the care and any additional attention he may have needed. Although Jinger only stayed for the night, I feel like he now has a 2nd family. Imani sent several photos and I could tell Jinger had made himself right at home. Imani's boys were an added bonus. We have small boys at home and Jinger loves them to pieces. I could tell he took to her family just the same. The boys didn't want him to leave but I promised he'd be back. Thank you tremendously, Imani!”
“Jerome took great care of my dog and always kept me informed of how she was doing. I highly recommend Jerome and will rebook next time I'm in need of a rover.”
“Kelly watched our dog for a weekend and we could tell our dog enjoyed her stay! She was returned to us seeming very happy and relaxed. They had a great big backyard where she could explore and sun bathe, and we are sure she loved it.”
