“I was really anxious about leaving my new dog home alone all day while I was at work. Jaide was amazing and took such good care of her! She was so considerate and thoughtful. 10/10 would recommend!”
“Erin is responsive and thorough -- you know you can trust her with your pet. She did an excellent job on the drop-in visit for my cat. I'll definitely be using her services again!”
About: With my experience working at a Doggy Daycare for the past two and a half years, I have taken care of wide variety of breeds ranging from puppies to senior dogs, and I would love to care for your pup too! I'm currently working part-time so my schedule is pretty open and flexible, especially during weekdays and particularly in the afternoons! I will be available every other weekend. As a guest entering my client's home, I will respect the privacy of their home and the boundaries of the dog. I will complete tasks as preferred or directed by the owner.
About: I’ve had dogs in my home all my life. I’ve taken care of them and cherished them. I love playing with them and taking them for walks. I love all dogs of all sizes. Im a proud mom of three dogs; two labradoodles and one schnauzer! I am currently in school, but my schedule is mostly open! If your pet can be at home alone for a few hours then we will be a perfect match!! I’m very comfortable with whatever you prefer for your pet. Leaving at somewhat detailed instructions would be ideal. If you own cats I will scoop the litter box if needed. I will always contact you if I don’t understand something so you can rest assured that everything is being done correctly.
About: I’ve loved and have been taken care of animals since I was a kid. Also I am currently attending school to specialize in animals behavior. I am currently working a part time job, so I have more than enough time on my hands to fit pet sitting in my schedule. I am very attentive to the pets at all time. I also make sure that anything that could possibly harm them isn’t in their vicinity.
About: I have a half acre fenced in yard, a 20x10 run pen, have fostered senior dogs and puppies for the shelter near us, I have worked with trainers before on how to get tips for our own dogs so I can be better equipped to care of others as well. I can also care for almost any animal at my house while you need a sitter. Small to tall! (Sorry I don’t have the set up for horses) Fish to big and small dogs, all the way to reptiles! I have experience with all of them. Daily, your animal will be watched 24/7. I strive to make sure every animal in my care is cared for like my own. So, your animal will never be left for more than a hour or two (the occasional doctors appointment). They will also be taken care of just like my own in they will get PLENTY of exercise! My dogs and dogs I watch are crated when we are not home. (Of course without collars on!) I spend at the very least 2 hours per day exercising with my dogs in the backyard. High energy dogs need outlets! I have experience from Yorkies to Shepherds to Belgians.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for friends and family since I was 20. I don’t own one currently but I have owned one majority of my life. I currently work full time 8 to 5 but I’m off every weekend. My fiancé works nights and every other weekend so I do have a lot of free time at night and on the weekends. I have taken care of many friends pets in their home and always want to help out if they need me to watch their pets.
About: I have been taking care of animals practically my entire life! I have pet sat in my home town for over ten years and also spent time in Starkville pet setting as well since I came here for school! I’m am a full time student but I am in my last semester so I have plenty of time to care for and play with your pets! I always make sure to hang out with the animals and give them extra love. Your pets are my priority when you trust me with their care! I am always willing to stay and keep your pets company for as long as you wish! I always make sure to do exactly as the owner wishes when caring for the pet. I am not able to keep animals at my apartment
About: What sets me apart is my 10+ years of personal, hands-on pet ownership combined with professional animal care experience. Over the past decade, I’ve cared for dogs, cats, and reptiles (including turtles), giving me a strong understanding of species-specific needs, routines, and behavior. I’m experienced with puppies, including patience, consistency, and reinforcing basic training, as well as senior pets, where I focus on comfort, mobility support, medication schedules, and close health monitoring. My long-term experience with cats includes litter box management, recognizing behavior changes, and providing low-stress care, while my reptile experience has built strong attention to detail with habitat setup, feeding schedules, and environmental health. This blend of real-life ownership and advanced animal knowledge allows me to provide dependable, attentive, and genuinely compassionate care tailored to each pet’s individual needs. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. I work Wednesday through Saturday from 10:00 PM to 8:30 AM, which gives me daytime availability for pet sitting, drop-in visits, feedings, walks, and medication administration. Because my schedule is consistent, I’m able to plan reliable check-ins, maintain routines for pets, and provide attentive care without rushing. This overnight work schedule allows me to be flexible during the day and early evening while ensuring pets receive consistent, dependable attention. I prioritize safety, trust, and a comfortable environment for every pet in my care. Whether in my home or a client’s, I ensure the space is secure, clean, and pet-friendly, removing hazards and creating areas where pets can relax comfortably. I follow each pet’s specific routine and instructions, including feeding, medications, exercise, and enrichment, while monitoring behavior and health closely. I build trust through gentle handling, consistent communication, and positive reinforcement, so pets feel safe and cared for. My experience with dogs, cats, and reptiles allows me to adapt to different temperaments and needs, ensuring every animal receives attentive, responsible, and loving care.
“Britney took very good care of my kitty while I was gone. My cat is very skittish when it comes to new people, so she tends to hide. Britney went the extra mile to make sure she atleast heard her in the house. She also made sure she had food, water and cleaned her kitty box. I would highly recommend her to take care of your pets!”
About: I work at Shaggy Hound where we treat your dogs just like our own. I take care of dogs from 3 months to 17 years old. I can administer medications and keep them on a regular schedule. I can also start training your dog basic commands while they are in my care. I believe what sets me apart from other people is my knowledge and experience. I used to work at a vet clinic for four years and now I work as a Kennel Tech. I have gained so much confidence in my ability to handle and work with animals. Pet care fits into my routine because it’s what I do for work, i work with dogs and then I come home and get to spoil my own dog and cats. I have a passion for caring for animals because they can’t do it for themselves. Your pets depend on you and that is my motivation to be better for them everyday. I care for other people’s animals with the same genuine love as I do my own. Pets are apart of the family and deserve to see love and respect always.
About: I've cared for my family's six adorable belgian malinois and two funky cats for as long as I can remember! Additionally, being a pre-veterinary student means I've loved on animals of all temperaments (including some parrots and monkeys!) and am completely comfortable with restraint, vaccination, blood draws, and general care! I am currently doing research part-time, so I would love to keep an eye on your fur-babies in the afternoons and evenings, as well as on the weekends! I live in an apartment, but as long as your pet is leash-trained and you are comfortable with it, I am more than happy to tucker them out with an evening walk or run! I am always able to house-sit for a night as well.
About: I’ve been a veterinary technician for 5 years working in primarily emergency services but also general practice, oncology and ophthalmology. I’m comfortable and confident with animals of every age, temperment and practice a fear free approach. Rest assured your pet will be loved and well cared for at all times. I’m available for sitting, walks and medication administration, boarding and day care I currently manage a veterinary hospital but I am able to take pets to work with me daily alongside my golden retriever Appa. If your pet prefers to hangout at home instead I have pet cameras to monitor them while I am working. I have 32 acres of property and an invisible fence available for dogs in need of some exercise. My home is 2 stories and big enough to accommodate large dogs. I have a spare bedroom dedicated to my cats filled with toys and towers for them so I can easily assist felines in need of a more confined space

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 Mathiston 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 administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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.
