“Alyssa did a great job with Zennor! I was very comfortable with her keeping me informed and wound up booking her for a 2nd time on the same day. I will happily have her back to look after Zennor again.”
“Jess is amazing. She is always on time and I know when I return home that my pets have been loved and well taken care of. Thanks Jess for all you do to care for Peanut and Salem. :)”
“Amy was absolutely amazing! Made me feel completely at ease to leave my 13 year old Maltipoo in her hands. She also had me fill out paperwork for more detail on Stella which was amazing that I didn’t have to think to leave instructions! We will be using Amy again for Stella for sure!”
About: I have had dogs my entire life and developed a genuine love for animals from an early age. I have sat and taken care of friends’ and families' pets over the years. While in high school my mother and I fostered dogs while they waited to be adopted. In addition, I spent 2.5 years working at a locally owned pet store, where I gained hands-on experience with pet care, behavior, and nutrition. I am widely available during the week besides scheduled appointments, errands, and housework. I have reliable transportation and keep an organized schedule so there is no overlap. Each animal should feel safe in their home while their owner is away, so I work calmly and patiently to earn their trust through my actions. Your dog should know I am there for their well-being, including all the good things like snuggling, playing, and tail wags. I treat each client's home with the kindness and respect I would want in return if the roles were reversed. I follow all instructions and information provided to the best of my ability, and your dog will receive plenty of love in the process.

I'm not employed this summer so my hours are super flexible!! I have transportation as well, since I care for my own pets the nature of pet care is in my daily routine! I have a fenced yard, and two dogs that can help your fur baby feel comfortable! I care for all my pets deeply and also am willing to meet there needs in whatever way I can. I've got experience working with all kinds of personalities! And have taken courses in college dedicated to animal care. I truly do love all animals! I have my own dogs and a cat who I adore! I'm also able to care for some exotic critters like birds, reptiles, or small mammals!
“Victoria is a very caring and conscientious dog sitter. She genuinely care about my dog, played with him and bonded quickly with my dog. She provided exceptional and professional service. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and dependable pet sitter.”
About: I used to work at boarding/doggy daycare facility for two years so I have experience with walking dogs, properly taking care of them, and keeping them safe and clean! I miss working work animals and I’m excited to start again! I do work a full time job, but i do have off every other weekend and am available every day during the week between 8am and 2pm. I would love for my clients to tell me about their fur baby, ex. Any behavior or things their baby may or may not like and their home, ex. If they have a fenced in yard or not. All of this or any information is helpful so I know how to best keep your baby safe!
“This was my first time using Rover & I happened upon Kat after pouring over all the sitters in my area. I knew right away she was who I wanted to take care of my fur babies when I’m out of town. After a meet greet the kitties and I loved her. She’s a vet tech by profession, animal CPR certified & a mom to many fur babies herself. I felt content & safe leaving my world in her hands & knew if there was a problem that she’d be able to use her skills, judgment and background to handle it. Bonus she sends pictures & videos & I loved this:)... I plan on utilizing her from here on out & you should too!! You won’t be disappointed!!”
“This was our first time using someone who wasn't family watch our puppies while we were away snd katie made us feel so confident that they were well taken care of! She was very communicative and the dogs had a blast with her! We will definitely be using her again for our next trip.”
“5+ stars for Julie. She provided daily drop in visits for my cat while I was on vacation. Each day she shared a photo or video of my kitty, which helped ensure I had a stress free time away from her. It was clear that my girl enjoyed her time with Julie getting pets & snuggles along with her food. Julie also helped out with small things like watering plants through the week.”
About: Dogs have always been a huge part of my life. I was involved with HeavenSent Bulldog Rescue, where I helped care for and foster rescue dogs. Over the years, I’ve fostered multiple dogs and have always had three rescue dogs of my own at home. I understand that every dog has a unique personality, history, and needs. Whether your pup is energetic, shy, senior, or needs extra patience, I provide loving, dependable care and treat every dog as if they were my own. My experience with rescue dogs has taught me how to recognize stress signals, build trust, and create a safe, comfortable environment where dogs can thrive. Your pet’s happiness, safety, and well-being will always be my top prio I’m a full time nurse at Chop but only work in the city 1 day a week. I am able to work from home most days which gives me flexibility. Whether I am caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I focus on providing a safe, loving, and fun environment. I have a secure fenced-in yard where dogs can run, play, and enjoy supervised outdoor time. My dogs have plenty of toys, and I make sure all pets get lots of attention, playtime, and affection.
“Oz was absolutely amazing with our girl Kaia while we were away for a long weekend! She took such great care of her, and I could tell right away that Kaia was in the best hands. I’ve been in the animal industry for over 20 years, so I’m definitely very particular about who I trust with my pets. Oz was everything I could have hoped for in a sitter. She was caring, attentive, trustworthy, and just genuinely wonderful with Kaia. We will 100% be saving Oz as our go-to sitter for all of our future trips. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust with their fur babies. Thank you so much again, Oz, for loving our girl and taking such great care of her! 🐾💜”
About: I Have a whole lot of love and patience to give when you cant be with your fury companion. I have had dogs for 25 years (lost my longtime ones of 14/16 years old years back) and Because my heart still yearned to wanting to provide that love and quality of life every animal deserves, I turned to dog sitting and rescue/foster. I have a clean home with a fenced in yard. I want your pet to feel comfortable in their surroundings and will cater to the life they typically lead when with you(laying w me, play time ,walks, treat time, med administer, etc). When your fur baby leaves, I want them to leave happy and waiting for their next return. For the most part I only take 1 Dog at a time. I will always have my 4.5 year old Terrier mix Female. She is 11 pounds. (Very love able and low key. She was a “foster fail” who We just couldn’t part with. She fairs well w smaller, low key dogs). I will also consider caring for caged small birds/animals as I have done so for clients. It will be an extra $5-$10 per day. I Always send updates and pics while in my care. I would love to talk w you about your fur baby. Please feel free to reach out. Please also understand the communication process for meet and greets and bookings is imperative.to maintain(within 24 hour responses), or I will offer the inquiry of date to the next person that wishes to proceed immediately. Example: Request booking or meet and greet, I respond I’m available and don’t hear back within 24 hrs w a set date to proceed. I like to be fair to my fur baby customers who truly need me. All my best! I do work outside of the home. During that time your pup will be have everything they need to relax (I play gentle dog relaxing music in the background). My fury house guests just love this so! It’s a calming effect. I have a fenced in yard, always give lots of attention(endless belly rubs), and provide A relaxing, low key environment. I want them to enjoy their time Here.
“We had a very good experience with Shannon! We contacted her last minute and she was very accommodating. Shannon seemed very sweet and genuine, which are refreshing qualities! She came by our house everyday and made sure our two cats Ozzie and Dude were feed, clean and happy. We even received pictures. I would use and recommend Shannon’s services again . She was awesome ! Thanks again Shannon!”

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:
- 90% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
