“Thomas came to drop-in on my cat Mittens after my long-time Rover sitter relocated out of the area. Communicating with Thomas was a breeze - he was very responsive, super easy to work with, and very attentive when he dropped by. I saw several photos of my cat and could tell Mittens got lots of good quality time while I was away. I plan on making Thomas my go-to sitter in the future!”

“She was wonderful. Our cats are unfortunately bad and broke glass and she very kindly cleaned it up and took out the trash for us. She has been super responsive throughout and we couldn’t ask for much more. One hundred percent recommend.”
“Lauren exceeded my expectations with out dogs. She initiated a meet and greet before we left for our trip with our dogs which helped put my mind at ease leaving the dogs in her care. After our first interaction I felt confident she was more than capable of managing our 4 dogs at once. While we were on the trip she was always prompt and reliable. Her photo updates were pure gold. She could add a side hustle of being a pet photographer if she wanted! Overall I was really pleased and will use her again!”

I wish I could rate her more than 5 stars....she’s a 10 for sure!!!!”
About: Growing up on a farm in the country side has given me ample experiences in all sorts of animals. Dogs, cats, horses and even turkeys! This experience has given me a unique set of skills that can tackle any beloved pet with patience, endurance, and fun. I am currently in a master's program at UMMC in Biomedical Science and am looking for flexible work that will allow me to keep up with living expenses and being able to do what I love best, playing and loving with pets! As someone who has a cat at home, I know what it takes to keep our animal companions safe but having fun at the same time.
“Alex took good care of our cat Tucker and faithfully came daily over several weeks to feed and love on him. She was responsive to requests and helpful in reporting any developments with Tucker or around the house.”
“Alex took excellent care of my big doodle, Annie! She was dependable, kept us updated, and made sure Annie was happy and well cared for during every visit. We really appreciated her and would definitely book with her again. Highly recommend!”
“Shawna was absolutely wonderful! Efficient, thorough, caring, patient, communicative, and just goes above and beyond! I’m so thankful that Dean was checked in on by Shawna with such care.”
About: I’ve been a pet owner since my early teens. I have a habit of spoiling my pets and I’ll likely spoil yours while in my care. 😃 I work full time outside of the home. During the summer months someone is home with the pets. I have a doggy door that is accessible for pets to use. My 2 dogs would love to have your pet as a play mate. I have a fenced yard and doggy door for use while I’m away from home. My 2 teenage children are around to give your pets extra love and attention too.
About: 8 years of professional petsitting experience on top of multiple years of pet ownership; includes housesitting, house maintenance, and care of non-traditional pets such as rodents and reptiles. I’m currently working part-time, so my schedule is flexible and wide open for plenty of time to love on your furry friends. I receive my schedule weeks in advance and am able to prioritize my clients effectively and ensure the highest quality of care. Due to my apartment complex not allowing pets, I care for pets at clients’ homes, whether that’s through pop-in visits to the home or housesitting for the amount of time needed. This ensures that your pets are in an environment that they are comfortable in. I communicate with clients before and throughout the visit to ensure they are kept in the loop while I care for their pets, including photos, and I never hesitate to ask questions if I have any.
About: Reliable, Experienced & Ready to Care for Your Pets! Animals have always been a big part of my life. I’ve volunteered at a nature center caring for reptiles, worked as a farm hand, and helped care for my family’s cattle. I’ve also grown up with dogs, cats, chickens, hamsters, and other furry and scaly friends. You can count on me to provide dependable, attentive care tailored to your pet’s needs. Whether they need exercise, playtime, companionship, feeding, or extra patience, I’ll help them feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. You’ll enjoy peace of mind knowing your pets are in caring, capable hands and receiving regular attention and care. 💕 Message me to book your pet’s next adventure or care visit! I work full-time (most weeks) in the service industry. I will never work doubles while taking care of your babies. Normal shifts will be from 10-4 or 4-11/12. My management is aware of my use of rover, and is very understanding to slight schedule changes. At my house my animals are spoiled, so I will treat your babies the same. They will get a multitude of cuddles, and just leave any special instructions like meals or medication. (However I am not specialized in injections.)

I am a travel nurse, i am gone 6 days and home 8 days. I’m available throughout everyday, i am home. I am available anytime morning or night.

I adopted two cats in Sept. of 2024 and adore them so much! I work part time at an ice cream shop in Jackson. I have free time in the mornings and most evenings due to the later shop hours. I’m open to any house sits and will stay with your pet! First off, I remain calm and easy when meeting an animal. If I’m able, I like to leave a belonging of mine so they can get used to my scent! I’m a very laidback person so lounging around the house and going out for a walk with your dog is perfect. I love giving pets and cuddling on the couch.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.
Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Jackson stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.
Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.
The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.
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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Jackson. On Rover:
- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 85% can help with daily exercise
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, 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.
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.
