It gave me real peace of mind knowing he was with someone who truly cares about animals. I highly recommend Joelyz to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter. Thank you again for taking such great care of Harley”

He sent plenty of pictures and I was able to stress about one less thing. He was very hospitable upon arrival and I loved that I didn’t have to lug around Diesel’s crate. When I picked Diesel up, he gave me a great recommendation about his food. If I ever need to book a boarding service, Jerome will be the first person I contact.”

About: I treat every pet as if they were my own and strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I naturally connect with animals of all personalities, including shy, anxious, senior, and high energy pets. I believe every pet is unique, and I take the time to learn their routine, preferences, and individual needs. I have experience caring for: • Dogs of all sizes, breeds, and ages • Senior pets requiring extra patience and attention • Cats with a variety of personalities and care needs • Rabbits and other small animals • Pets requiring oral medications and routine care • High-energy pets that need exercise and enrichment I also volunteer with the Jacksonville Humane Society on weekends, where I continue learning about animal behavior, handling, and enrichment while helping care for shelter pets. More than simply feeding or walking pets, I focus on building trust and creating a calm, low stress environment so they feel secure and happy while you’re away. You’ll receive regular updates, photos, and clear communication throughout each visit, giving you peace of mind that your pet is receiving attentive and compassionate care. As a college student with a flexible schedule, pet care is one of my favorite ways to spend my free time. I enjoy staying active with dogs on walks and spending quiet time with cats and other small animals. My schedule allows me to be available throughout the week, including many evenings and weekends, and I do my best to accommodate last minute requests whenever possible. I’m organized, dependable, and committed to providing consistent, loving care that fits seamlessly into your pet’s routine. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, and it’s a rewarding part of my day. I live in a spacious apartment that provides plenty of room for pets to relax and feel comfortable during their stay. I also have a friendly pet rabbit who is accustomed to being around people and other animals. For the safety and comfort of all pets, my rabbit stays in his own private room whenever I am boarding or caring for another animal. My apartment community also has a fully fenced dog park where dogs can enjoy supervised off leash playtime and exercise. Safety is always my top priority, and I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, preferences, and any special needs to help them feel secure, loved, and at home while you’re away. I provide regular updates, photos, and open communication so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is receiving attentive and reliable care.

“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.”
“Haley watched our kitties while we were out of town to get married. She did an excellent job! She is communicative, follows instructions, and really spends quality time with the fur babies. She also took many pictures and showed us how happy our kitties were when she came to visit. We felt very reassured that they were in good hands while we were gone. Would definitely book again!”
About: I have owned and cared for cats since I was 5, actually! I've had them all my life, and I still do! I can give medications according to your specifications and ensure they are well-fed, played with, and cared for. I adore cats of all kinds and especially love fluffy babies and rotisserie chickens (sphynx, haha). I can and will clean litter boxes if needed, and cuddling is mandatory (unless your baby is not a snuggler). I know what foods cats can and can't have, as well as what is good for them, like fresh pumpkin, which is good for their digestive system in small amounts
“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!”
“Matthew was terrific!! By the second day my shy cat was playing with him and getting pets by the third. Thank you for an excellent job! I will definitely book Matthew for future travel.”
“Isis was amazing. She took such excellent care of my cats while I was out of town. She sent pics of them all and followed up with me at each visit. One of my girls requires daily medication and Isis had no issues giving it to her. Highly recommend.”
“Cheyenne was absolutely amazing with our three dogs! Before her week-long stay, she took the time to do a meet and greet, and it was obvious from the start that she genuinely cared about getting to know them and their individual needs. Throughout the entire week, she kept us updated with daily messages and pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. When our youngest pup developed an upset stomach, Cheyenne went above and beyond by cooking her rice, making sure she was comfortable, and keeping us informed every step of the way. Not only did she take exceptional care of our dogs, but she also treated our home with incredible care. She cleaned up after them, and on her last day she even cleaned our carpets and mopped the floors so we could come home to a spotless house. That level of thoughtfulness is something you just don’t expect. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter, and we’ll absolutely be booking with Cheyenne again. As much as I want everyone to know how incredible she is, part of me wants to keep her our little secret! 😂 Highly, highly recommend!”
“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.”
“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!”
“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!!!”
“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.”
“Chris was awesome and took such great care of my fur babies! I got daily updates and though I know they likely ran and hid when he arrived each day, he let me know he spoke with them and played with their toys for a bit so they could hear. Upon my return, I got a warm welcome from both of The Boys and could tell that they were more relaxed. I didn't get the cold shoulder treatment as I typically do. I will definitely call on Chris again and I would highly recommend him!!”

We got regular updates and we loved seeing videos of how much fun our dog was having with her friendly dogs. Her home is a welcome place for doggy fun and snuggles! Also, she helped us out when we had to cancel at the last minute several weeks ago, even though she took a hit to her review profile. Thank you for everything, Meagan!”

“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! 🐶🐾🎀”

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.
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.

“Kelly made this such a smooth experience! This was the first time I have ever boarded a dog, and was very nervous at first but Kelly put my mind right to ease with her gentle nature. Thank you!”
“She has taken care of my babies, several times, and my babies absolutely love it! She is caring, loving, and very attentive to details, which gives my baby the chance to run around and enjoy. I definitely recommend her.”
“Joelyz did an amazing job watching my Yorkie, Harley, over the past few days. From the moment I dropped him off, I could tell he was in great hands. She kept me updated, showed genuine care, and made sure Harley was comfortable and well taken care of the entire time. When I picked him up, he was happy, relaxed, and clearly treated like family. It gave me real peace of mind knowing he was with someone who truly cares about animals. I highly recommend Joelyz to anyone looking for a reliable and caring dog sitter. Thank you again for taking such great care of Harley”
“I highly recommend Wendy to watch your fur baby. She is prompt and efficient as well as mindful. My dog loves to play with others and Wendy screened other dogs to be sure they’d be a good match. Jax had an 8 day stay with Wendy and came home a happy boy. Thank You, Wendy AND Rover. Five Stars ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“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!”
“I usually go with a pet boarding facility but wanted to try something different. Meaghan was very responsive and flexible with my schedule. She welcomed my 2 frenchies with open arms no hesitation. She made me feel more comfortable with her than taking them to a pet paradise.”
“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 ❤️!”
“Charlayda is a great sitter. When I first mat with her I got a good vibe from her. I knew right at that moment I had made the right decision for her to watch my baby Ms. V. Layda took great care of Ms. V and she took lots of photos! I would definitely have her watch her again!”
“Kelly and the environment she provides for our dogs is absolutely perfect. She is devoted to their care, believes in the necessity for quality outdoor fun and exercise, and communicates promptly and thoroughly both before and during our dogs’ stay with her. The surroundings are gorgeous and fenced so our dogs are always safe and happy when we return. Thank you,Kelly. We’ll see you in the fall!”
“Megan is the best! This was Ellie’s second visit and she had a great time yet again. So thankful to have found someone so reliable and who genuinely cares about my pup while I’m away. It makes traveling so much less stressful. Thanks Megan and family!”
“Our dog enjoyed another great week-long stay with Hannah! From the moment we dropped her off, our dog was so excited to come stay with them again that she didn’t even look back. She seemed completely at peace with the love and treats she got at her home away from home for the week. They sent pics and funny updates throughout her stay and we wouldn’t hesitate to board her again with them. Highly recommended!”
“I have a small dog but he did wonderful with the big dogs. Jason and his wife did a great job watching my dog and it was nice knowing someone was always with him so he was not lonely. They even have a little boy who gave him extra attention as well. My dog loved them so much that he was very sad to leave. I know he cant wait to go back amd play with his new friends.”
“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!”
“Absolutely amazing pet sitting experience! My pets were happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for while I was away. Communication was excellent with regular updates and photos, which gave me complete peace of mind. Reliable, professional, and genuinely caring — I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for trustworthy pet care. I’ll definitely be booking again.”
“Thank you for watching Diesel, my big baby. Jerome helped me out big time by taking a last minute boarding request so I could attend a funeral. He sent plenty of pictures and I was able to stress about one less thing. He was very hospitable upon arrival and I loved that I didn’t have to lug around Diesel’s crate. When I picked Diesel up, he gave me a great recommendation about his food. If I ever need to book a boarding service, Jerome will be the first person I contact.”
“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 ❤️”
“Always a great experience when Emma watches Margie! She always sends pictures and keeps us updated on her stay! Margie always looks so happy and cared for! ❤️”
“Marlena was absolutely amazing with our dog, Winnie! From the moment we dropped her off, we felt completely at ease knowing she was in great hands. Marlena sent us daily updates and adorable pictures that showed how happy and comfortable Winnie was the entire time. It’s clear that she truly loves and understands dogs. Winnie came back happy, healthy, and well cared for. We couldn’t have asked for a better sitter, Marlena is the best! Highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone reliable and loving to watch their pup.”
About: I treat every pet as if they were my own and strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I naturally connect with animals of all personalities, including shy, anxious, senior, and high energy pets. I believe every pet is unique, and I take the time to learn their routine, preferences, and individual needs. I have experience caring for: • Dogs of all sizes, breeds, and ages • Senior pets requiring extra patience and attention • Cats with a variety of personalities and care needs • Rabbits and other small animals • Pets requiring oral medications and routine care • High-energy pets that need exercise and enrichment I also volunteer with the Jacksonville Humane Society on weekends, where I continue learning about animal behavior, handling, and enrichment while helping care for shelter pets. More than simply feeding or walking pets, I focus on building trust and creating a calm, low stress environment so they feel secure and happy while you’re away. You’ll receive regular updates, photos, and clear communication throughout each visit, giving you peace of mind that your pet is receiving attentive and compassionate care. As a college student with a flexible schedule, pet care is one of my favorite ways to spend my free time. I enjoy staying active with dogs on walks and spending quiet time with cats and other small animals. My schedule allows me to be available throughout the week, including many evenings and weekends, and I do my best to accommodate last minute requests whenever possible. I’m organized, dependable, and committed to providing consistent, loving care that fits seamlessly into your pet’s routine. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, and it’s a rewarding part of my day. I live in a spacious apartment that provides plenty of room for pets to relax and feel comfortable during their stay. I also have a friendly pet rabbit who is accustomed to being around people and other animals. For the safety and comfort of all pets, my rabbit stays in his own private room whenever I am boarding or caring for another animal. My apartment community also has a fully fenced dog park where dogs can enjoy supervised off leash playtime and exercise. Safety is always my top priority, and I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, preferences, and any special needs to help them feel secure, loved, and at home while you’re away. I provide regular updates, photos, and open communication so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is receiving attentive and reliable care.
