I was sent tons of pictures and videos to keep my mind at ease.”

About: As a fellow pet owner, I understand the importance of truly special care. That's why I go beyond the basics, providing personalized, expert attention that caters to your pet's unique needs, always prioritizing their physical and emotional well-being. Let's schedule a meet and greet to discuss how I can care for your furry best friend! Caring for animals is a natural extension of my daily life. My routine for my own pets includes time for walks, playtime, and grooming, which allows me to genuinely connect with them, address their needs, and reinforce positive behaviors throughout the day. This is the same expert care I aim to provide for your beloved animals. A comfortable and trusting environment is key to a pet's well-being. I achieve this by maintaining routines and minimizing stress for all pets, from energetic pups to calm seniors. Since every animal is unique, I personalize practices like playtime, feeding, and bonding with plenty of affection for their complete physical and emotional comfort.
“Shera was absolutely fantastic! She communicated with us, sent us photos and updates each day, which really put our minds at ease. Our dog Oliver was well taken care of. We highly recommend Shera and would definitely book her again!”

About: I worked as a Veterinary technician from 2013-2018. Following this, I worked as a Medical Laboratory Technician at a Veterinary Laboratory from 2018-2022. I currently work remotely for the same Veterinary Laboratory Company. I have a ton of knowledge and experience with Animals! I am a full-time employee working remotely, giving me time to spend with your fur babies! I also do not have any pets at home myself. I always make sure to respect pets and pet owners based on their comfort levels and needs. I own my home with a fenced in back yard allowing time for play and potty breaks. I have years of experienced in pet care so I can quickly pickup on pets’ social ques and behaviors. During walks I am equipped to properly leashed or harness pets during walks. If needed I am familiar with lifesaving skills in case of emergencies and can administer medications if necessary.
“Karen did a wonderful job walking our dogs. We have one very high energy dog that can be difficult to walk until he releases energy and she handled him with such ease! Both of my dogs came back from each walk completely exhausted, it was perfect and exactly what we wanted! Karen was so lovely and we look forward to having her walk our dogs again!”

“Alivia was wonderful. Very prompt, professional, excellent communication, and great positive energy. My dogs resonated with her and seemed super comfortable (and also super happy when they got back home). Thank you for your help!”

“Amazing would be an understatement. Maria’s love for dogs shined through from day one. My pet adored her, probably a little too much! Maria went above and beyond to help sit/walk my dog. She followed my instructions to the tee and helped bring packages in while I was away which was an added bonus to her awesomeness. Will definitely book with her in the future and encourage others to as well.”

About: Since I was 5 Years old I’ve always had a Love and fair relationship with Dogs! Even as a Dog owner myself I’ve always done my part to take care of my baby boy! Im Currently on My vacation period so I’ll have time to take care of your pup! I can do boarding on weekdays from Sunday to Thursday from 9am to 5pm I feed my baby boy 2 times a day and make sure he is well hydrated. Im also very playful with him because he likes to run around. I am also very overprotective of my own pet and makes sure he doesn’t harm himself while moving around.
“Very communicative! My dog was extremely happy and calm when I got home. Trust worthy and very thorough when reporting about how he did since he is older with health issues. Will definitely invite her back.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life, I’ve grown up with 4 dogs in my house and I’ve always enjoyed spending time with them. I currently have an open schedule and am almost always able to fit time into my schedule so I will gladly be able to dog sit or walk. I have a fenced in yard that is good for dogs, and a big neighborhood that is good for walks. I am very active so I can go on plenty of walks.
About: Animal lover who had a rescue dog of her own! Experienced with dogs, cats, guinea pigs, and fish. Highly recommended by neighbors to walk, feed, and play with pets. Plenty of practice cleaning crates, litterboxes, and cages. Afternoons and evenings work best for me but I am available all day during the summer! During the school year, weekends and evenings will be my main availability. I have no pets and currently live in a second floor apartment. There is plenty of green space for walking but no off-leash areas. I have not had a pet of my own in a few years so I am not well equipped for a pet in my apartment, but I have a car and can easily travel to you.
About: If your pet is looking for a new friend look no further! I've been a pet parent for five years now. I raised my dog, Lola, from a puppy and have experience with housebreaking and training. I also fostered dogs for two years before moving to Jax and have plenty of experience with shy and nervous pups. I've been a cat mom for three years and have extensive experience with cats of all ages and medical conditions through the Jacksonville Humane Society. I'm more than willing to go above and beyond to treat your pets as family whether that's giving medications, going on outings, or grabbing a pup cup. I work a hybrid 9-5 job with lots of flexibility on when and where I actually need to work. With a week's notice I can arrange my schedule to accommodate your pet's schedule! Otherwise, I can stay or provide drop ins before and after work, and on my lunch break. I understand that every pet's needs are different. I believe communication is the most important part of this process to make sure you and your pets are comfortable with me. I follow any and all instructions provided to the best of my ability at all times and will ask any questions to make sure I can treat your pet as well as you do. If doing drop in visits or housesitting, I will keep up with any pet-related tidying that might need to be done. I will meet up prior to the booking if requested to make sure I'm the best fit for your pets needs. For those interested in boarding at my house, I live with my partner, dog, and cats in a 3 bed 2 bath house with a fenced backyard. Your loved one(s) will be hanging in our 600 square foot backroom which has a doggy door that leads directly to the fenced yard. The backroom has couches and dogs beds for your pups to relax on and a cat tree for any feline friends over. While your pets are over mine will not have access to this backroom so everyone will have their space.
About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with a deep passion for both dogs and cats. Over the years, I’ve rescued countless kittens and cats, finding them safe and loving forever homes. I’ve cared for pets with special medical needs, high-energy pups who thrive on long walks and runs, and elderly companions who require extra patience and tenderness. I’ve cherished every quirky personality—from the grumpy to the greedy - and find joy in each unique spirit. As a devoted pet advocate, I believe that while life is short, kindness to animals is one of the purest forms of love and if there’s a heaven, it surely welcomes those who care for creatures great and small. I treat your pets as my sole responsibility. While you’re out and they are in my care, I’ll treat them as my own. I have a very flexible schedule, reliable transportation, and will provide top notch service with every visit. I also provide a clean environment. Let’s face it, your fur kids may be messy while you’re away, one of my added perks is to leave your home spruced up. Your pet will always be supervised in an enclosure or placed on a leash! Safety is the standard! No cellphone distractions. Vigilant at all times! I not only want your trust, but your pets as well. They will feel happy & protected by me.
“I cannot recommend Lauren enough ! She truly goes above and beyond every visit. She’s very attentive to my dog’s needs and notices the little things about his behavior, which makes me feel so comfortable leaving him in her care. She sends thoughtful updates and great pictures !!”

About: Hello there! I’m a teacher and mom to two fur babies of my own. I’ve had lots of experience as a sitter and pet owner. I use Rover for my own pets so I know the importance of trusting the people you have watching your babies. I send lots of photos and messages so you know your baby is being cared for with the highest attention and quality. Since I am a teacher my weekday schedule is limited to evening drop ins only but available on the weekends anytime. During the summer and most breaks I have open availability for daytime visits. I have been a pet owner most of my life and love my pets like humans! My pets are well taken care of and have routine yearly visits and dental cleanings. I will treat your fur baby with just as much care and love that you do!
