“Caroline has sat for us many times and is absolutely perfect! Our cats love spending time with her and frankly, I don’t know what we would do without her. Highly recommend!”

About: I am a pet person! I’ve had dogs since I was a child and have cared for my own dogs and cats throughout my adult life. Animals have always been part of my family, and I truly love caring for fur babies of all ages and personalities. I treat every pet like my own, with patience, affection, attention, cuddles, and lots of love. I understand how important it is for pet parents to feel confident their pets are safe, happy, and well cared for, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’m known in my community for taking care of friends’ pets when they’re away. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine because I work from home and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets lots of attention, supervision, walks, and companionship throughout the day. I live in a safe, walkable neighborhood and love taking dogs on walks, playing with them, and making sure they feel comfortable and loved. My home is very pet-friendly, I have a large, fenced in backyard, and I genuinely enjoy having animals as part of my daily life. I provide a safe, loving, and comfortable environment where pets are treated like family. I have a secure fenced-in backyard with plenty of green space for dogs to safely play, explore, and get exercise. Pets will receive lots of attention, supervision, affection, walks, playtime, and care throughout the day. I’m happy to follow each pet owner’s routines, feeding schedules, medication instructions, and any special preferences to help pets feel comfortable and secure. If needed, I can also crate pets according to the owner’s instructions and comfort level.
“Meredith was able to watch my two senior cats when our regular sitter wasn’t available and she did a great job. My cats took to her instantly and she provided great updates and pictures of each visit. We will definitely use her again.”
“Gage was incredible. This was the first time I’ve used rover- and I used it last minute. He was super quick to respond to meet with me and Blu before the booking. Blu loved him from the start! He sent pictures thought the day of his drop ins with her and would regularly let me know how she was doing. Would highly recommend”
About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I’ve dedicated both my education and experience to caring for them. I have a Bachelor’s degree in Animal Care and Behavior and I’m currently continuing my education in veterinary medicine. I also have hands on experience working with animals in professional boarding and daycare settings, along with several years of animal shelter volunteering. I’m comfortable caring for pets of different breeds, ages, sizes, personalities, and energy levels. My education in animal behavior has taught me the importance of understanding each pet as an individual, recognizing their body language, respecting their boundaries, and keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible. Whether your pet loves walks and playtime or would rather curl up and relax, I’ll adjust their care to what makes them happiest and most comfortable. My goal is for every pet in my care to feel safe, loved, and at home while their family is away. 🐾💕 I currently have a flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of time to provide pets with the attention and care they need. For boarding, I'm able to plan my day around feeding schedules, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and your pet's normal routine. I'm also available throughout the week and on weekends. I live in a pet friendly apartment with an enclosed patio where pets can safely get some fresh air and relax. My community also has an on site fenced dog playground for supervised play and exercise, and I’m conveniently located near Shelby Farms trails and park for walks and outdoor time. Inside my home, pets are welcome to get comfortable and make themselves at home. I always follow each pet parent’s routine, feeding instructions, and safety preferences, and pets can be crated if requested. I have a friendly cat of my own who will remain comfortably in a separate room during boarding stays, giving your pet their own space to relax and settle in. 🐾
“This was for an extra day added to our trip because of a family emergency and we're just so grateful for Melissa's kindness, understanding, and willingness to take care of our girls again!”
“Wonderful person to watch my cat! Followed all of my instructions and my cat, who is very shy, actually came out and started to interact with her by the end of the visit.”
“Leigh took the best care of our three babies on a long ten day vacation. I never worried about them because I got updates at each visit and she loved on my sweet dogs each time! I highly recommend Miss Leigh!! I can’t thank her enough💖💖💯💯💯”
“Bailey arrived promptly and was patient with my reactive dog. Bailey is able to read a dogs body language which is super helpful for my dog who needs space and to get to know someone before she gets comfortable. I look forward to working with Bailey again.”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for about 5 years now, including pet sitting, house sitting, and drop-in visits. I’m comfortable with different temperaments, from energetic pups to shy or older pets. I always focus on keeping their routine consistent so they feel safe and happy. My schedule is flexible, and I’m committed to being reliable and on time. I’m available for regular visits, pet sitting, or last-minute bookings when possible, and I always make sure your pet’s routine is followed closely. I prioritize your pet’s safety and comfort by caring for them in their own home, where they feel most secure. I follow all care instructions closely, keep a clean and respectful environment, and make sure doors, gates, and routines are always handled with care. I also provide regular updates so you can feel confident while you’re away.
About: Animals have always been a part of my life, I was raised on a farm, where caring for a wide variety of animals became second nature. That background gives me a strong sense of responsibility and an instinct for understanding each pet’s unique personality. I’m comfortable with all kinds of pets and focus on keeping them safe, happy, and stress-free while you’re away. I work Monday through Friday from 7:30 AM to 4:30 PM, which means I’m available for walks, drop-in visits, and check-ins starting at 4:30 PM during the week. I am completely free on weekdays. If you’re looking for more extended care, I also offer house sitting and can often work remotely on Mondays, Thursdays, Fridays, and weekends, allowing me to spend more consistent time with your pets. I aim to be flexible and communicative, so we can find a schedule that works best for both you and your pets’ needs! I tailor my care to each pet and service. In your home, I stick to your pet’s normal routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free, including feeding, walks, and plenty of attention. In my own home, I provide a safe, calm environment with close supervision and consistent care. I also have personal experience with shy pets, I adopted my cat Athena at 4 months old from the Memphis Animal Shelter. She was very skittish and required a lot of patience, understanding her needs, and respecting her space when she wanted to be left alone. She is now 8 years old and thriving, and that experience has taught me how to read behavior and adjust care to each animal’s comfort level. No matter the setting, my goal is to keep your pet happy, secure, and well cared for!
About: I have 4 years of experience as a volunteer dog walker at the Humane Society of Memphis and Shelby County. I was trained to care for dogs of various behavioral habits and energy levels. I also have experience caring for the pets of family friends with dogs and cats ranging from seniors with medicinal needs to high energy puppies. I'm comfortable and have cared for dogs of any size. I'm a recent college graduate with plans to start graduate school in the fall so I am free any times of the week for this summer. When entering a client's home, I will take special care to respect their property as well as their animals. I will pay close attention to a dog's behavior in their environment and work to make them as comfortable as possible with a new person.

Cat parents share their Rover experiences - Germantown
Melissa did a wonderful job caring for my kitties while we were on vacation. Melissa is very very friendly and experienced at caring for cats. My cats are really shy, but they came out of hiding for Melissa. She cleaned their litter box every day, changed their water daily, fed them both wet and dry food and also gave them their treats. We knew at the Meet and Greet that Melissa was a great choice. We were not disappointed. I definitely will use her again and recommend booking her in advance if you want a great pet sitter. Thank you, Melissa. I appreciate the extra things you did while we were away!
Ariel is wonderful with our four cats. She really cares about making each and one of them comfortable and happy while we are away. She also leaves the litter area spotless, and was kind enough to take on the extra job of filling our birdbath while we were gone during a hot week this summer. I cannot recommend her highly enough, she is a gem!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Germantown on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of August 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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 .
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.
Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.
Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.
Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
