About: I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life. There has not been a time where I wasn’t caring for pets. I have also watched my friends and family’s pets. I have given medicine when needed. I work full time but that doesn’t stop me from loving furry friends. I am able to walk, play, and take care of pets before and after work. I have an apartment, which is why I would prefer to come to you! Keeping your pet in their comfort zone also helps me be able to take care of them!
About: I am very good with dogs, because I pay attention to their body language. Dogs communicate through their eyes, body and barks. Similar to a person using sign language. Most communication is non-verbal and I definitely pay attention and make sure I treat every furry friend with respect and love. Dogs have feelings and like to socialize in healthy environments and that is what they will get with me as your dog sitter and / or dog walker. I will take your dog walking, I will check-in on your dog and play ball or tug of war with them, if that is what they like to do, I will provide water refills and food refills, even mix food upon request and follow instructions specific to your dog's need. I like to take dogs to the park, go jogging with dogs, belly rubs, hugs and playful affection. I like making dogs feel important, so they know they matter. This way, they feel happy and fulfilled while you are working or away on vacation, or away for that day or moment running errands. I am currently an entrepreneur. Trying to start my own pet business. Served, previously in the United States Air Force. Used to have an emotional support dog for 14 years who is no longer with us due to old age and health problems. That was my peace and joy who helped me through difficult times in my life. I actually feel happy spending time with dogs. Running with dogs, playing ball with dogs, training dogs, walking dogs, dog sitting and playing, cuddles and hugs! I make dogs feel important because they are our fur babies who deserve the best life can give them! I will give your dog fresh water, food, medication; if necessary, pay attention to their body language to figure out what they need from me to feel more comfortable and supported. If you have instructions or a routine I will follow those set of guidelines. I will keep all owners well informed with updated photos and possible videos on how their fur babies are doing! If they need a bathing that is extra, but I will clean your dog thoroughly after playtime. If, you want me to take your dog to the park, I love doing walks and runs in the park with your fur baby! Get all the extra energy out, so when you come home they are well satisfied and content. I have a house and a yard. Yard is not fully fenced in yet, but currently working towards fixing it or getting a new fence. My house is dog proof to keep all fur babies safe and happy, but there are always other options available to keep your dog as comfortable as possible. Depending on the service you hire me for pertaining to your pet.
About: I’ve always had dogs of all ages and breeds in the family. It is fulfilling giving dogs their best life possible. We will treat your dogs like part of our family. I have a flexible job that allows me to provide care for animals throughout the day. My wife is also extremely involved and we enjoy spending our time around animals. I have a mini golden doodle and am constantly aware of the potential dangers to her. My main goals are to keep your dog comfortable and to not send them home with a vet bill.

About: Growing up with dogs taught me how different every dog can be. I’m comfortable being patient with animals, paying attention to their behavior and needs, and reinforcing good habits through positive, consistent training. I’m excited to bring that experience into caring for other people’s pets and continue learning along the way. I’m a barista with a set work schedule, which actually makes planning pet care pretty easy! When I book a gig, I know exactly when I’ll be there—and I stick to the schedule we agree on. I’m big on communication and reliability, so you won’t have to wonder when I’ll show up or whether I forgot about your furry friend. Once we make a plan, that time is reserved for your pet. Think of me as the friend who puts your dog’s walk on the calendar and actually shows up. 🐾☕ I’m attentive to the little things, keeping an eye on doors and gates, following feeding and medication instructions, and making sure pets are supervised and comfortable. I’ll also stick closely to their normal routines whenever possible, because a familiar routine can make being away from their owner feel more comfortable Most importantly, I treat every pet as an my own. Some want constant attention and playtime, while others need a quiet corner and a little space. I’m happy to meet them where they’re comfortable and make sure they feel safe, cared for, and loved while you’re away.

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Jackson choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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 .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
