“This was my second time using Merrys services and I was not disappointed. During the 10 day stay, she constantly kept me updated by sending messages and pics and was very easy to work with. Surely will use her for future needs. Thanks much Merry!”
“Todd and Gail are phenomenal! We received photo updates during our girls stay and the overall communication was top tier. They have such a welcoming home and my husband and I will definitely be using their services from here on out!”
“Sharon provided excellent care for my fur baby! She is attentive and kept me updated with everything he was doing; she also took pictures and shared them with me. She is the absolute best.”
“Derek was easy to work with. He was a last minute reservation for us when our original plans had to back out. He took great care of our dog. He had a rather full house of dogs due to Fall Break, so I believe he was less proactive about communicating with pictures and status updates, but overall, we were happy with him.”
“We couldn't have asked for a better sitter! If we are ever in the Memphis area again, we will definitely be looking you up. Thanks again for taking such great care of our little lady!”
“Great sitter. Gage was great to work with and very accommodate with changes that I had to make. Enjoyed all the pictures that he sent daily. Will use again in the near future.”
“Shanina takes such good care of Zelda while I am away- once again she came back to me happy and well taken care of. Thank you so much!! We will see you again soon! 🫶🏼”
“My sitter exceeded my expectations. She was loving and caring with my dog. Her demeanor paired well with his active and friendly personality. She kept me informed about his well being during his stay. I appreciated her updates since this was his first time with a sitter. I will continue to use her services in the future.”
“Ms. Kayla did so well with cash! She gave me daily updates and her communication was on point! She definitely made me feel at ease being away from my baby for a long period of time! I would definitely recommend her!!”
“Kayla had my two boys, Magni and Modi, and took great care of them for a week while we went on vacation. She sent pictures almost daily and kept me updated on how they were doing. They were so happy when we picked them up. I will definitely be using them again!”
“Myla was so great! She was easy to talk to and responded to any questions in a very timely manner. My 2 dogs are rescue dogs and showed some initial anxiety when left for the first time. Myla was very responsive and caring and gave them exactly what they needed. She sent updates while we were gone and we returned to some very well cared for and happy dogs. I would highly recommend her!”
“Amazing took such good care of our baby, Maeve!! Sent photos everyday and kept us updated! You can tell Maeve had a blast!!! Also walked her multiple times a day! We love you guys!!!! And couldnt ask for a better experience for our girl! Thank you!”
“Kelly was so kind and helpful in all of our communications, and Milo loved staying with her! He was peaceful upon drop-off and happy when we picked him up, which is something new for us after boarding. He instinctively knew Kelly’s home would be comfortable! Kelly will be our first call for any future boarding needs!”
“I was a little skeptical at first due to this being our first time leaving Boba with someone. I felt better after Nadia sent a pic of her laying in the floor playing. Definitely would recommend.”
“Bethanie took care of our puppy Bolt for a week with very care. She kept us up-to-date with regular pics of him. He enjoyed with her dogs at her place and looked very happy when we get back to pick him up. We would definitely recommend Bethanie !!!!!”
“Tara treated Eleanora like her very own. Our dog had so much fun and is totally worn out from playing, which is really saying something for a min pin!”
About: I’ve had pets since the day I was born including fish, a bird, a hamster, dogs, and cats. I grew especially fond of the dogs and cats and with that, I grew a passion of taking very good care of all of them, making sure they always felt so loved. I cared for them more and more everyday, until their time on Earth ended. Whenever I was given the opportunity to take care of a family member or friend’s fur baby, I always jumped right in and took such passion in it! When I came of age, me and my boyfriend (which is now my husband) got a dog of our own and named him Goose and he is our entire world! ❤️ I’m currently working full-time (8-5 Mon-Fri) as an auditor but I work from home almost everyday (generally 3-4 days per week). I will easily be able to care for your fur baby whether or not i’m working, just as I do my own fur baby! We have a large fenced in yard and, because of living in the last house on a dead end street, we have a large and secure side yard as well as a good-sized front yard! It is all flat land, no hills or areas that can’t be seen. We also have a large dog kennel if requested!
“We had to leave town suddenly due to a death in our family and Suzanne agreed to take our Maggie at very short notice. Maggie was extremely well cared for and very comfortable with Suzanne and her family and their own furbabies. We received messages and pictures regularly which definitely eased our minds during such a difficult time. I couldn’t be happier that I have found Suzanne and will definitely be using her services again in the future.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Alphaba home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Alphaba.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Alphaba sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.
All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee, which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page.
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in MS ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
