About: I’ve cared for animals since I was a small child, with neighbors and family trusting me to look after pets of all shapes and sizes — from dogs and cats to amphibians and farm animals. I pride myself on being judgment-free and flexible. No matter what your home looks like, how many pets you have, or where you’re located, your animals will be treated with kindness and respect. I’m experienced with everything from well-loved family pets to special cases and I’m always here to help. I am a college student pursuing a degree at the university of Memphis. In my spare time, I try to fill it with practical hands on animal experience that will further my career. I treat every animal under my care as if they were mine. When I petsit animals, I establish a schedule to make sure all needs are being met, this includes attention of course! I love taking the animals I petsit on field trips, such as the dog park, Hollywood feed or car rides. Any animal under my care is always cheerful with a day jam packed full of fun.
“Samantha, was amazing as always, our cat was sad and grumpy cause we left on a work trip but sam still made sure he had his treats and cat nip to make him happy while we were away. Thank you as always Sam.”
“Nadia did a great job winning my babies over and making them feel comfortable. My puppy is weary of all strangers but she warmed up to Nadia swiftly and was wagging her tail and excited when she came to let them out the next day.”

“Bradley was awesome! Cared for my dog with drop in visits over the weekend. Showed up on time as scheduled, took lots of pictures, took him on a walk and played with him! He even came to meet my dog beforehand which made me feel more comfortable. I will be booking with Bradley again in the future!!”
About: I go above and beyond for every one of my pet owners to make sure their babies are safe, well taken care of, and spoiled!! I have experience with all breeds, of all sizes and ages as well. I do everything I can to make sure your pets are happy and healthy. I also buy treats and toys (specific to your pups needs/wants). I'm currently working full time, from 8:30-3:30. So I will be with your babies in the morning from 6:30 AM to the time I go to work, come back around 3:30-4 PM, stay for a few hours, and then make one more night stop. Or, I just stay if im staying at my pet owners house. I dont do boarding but I am able to bring your babies to my house if need be whike i watch them. I have 2 dogs and 4 cats (2 of which are kittens) that would love to play with them and I have kennels if necessary as well. When at my pet owners house, I like spend quality time with all of the babies, make sure everyone is fed and taken care of and play until all that energy is out!
About: I've always been into nature, animals, insects and pets. My grandmother would always joke and say that I should be a Veterinarian when I grow up. Between playing with earth worms, petting any dog I see or spoiling my own pups, I love people and I love their animals and pets. For the past decade, having to care for other's pets never felt like a chore. It remains the foundation of my desire to join Rover. Even after being bitten by an unsuspecting, unpredictable pit bull, I will continue being a dog lover. I have been a pet caregiver since I was a teen. Now that I've discovered Rover, I can take this to the next level. I'm actually late to the Rover party! I currently have open availability as of August 2026. That could be changing to part-time availability soon. I will update my availability as needed. I am devoted to absolute safety and trust. I promise to treat you, your property and furry family members with the same love, attention and care that I would treat my own.
“Lei was absolutely wonderful! Her communication was excellent. I know our pets felt at home with her. She and Chris (her husband, who is retired military) did so much more than taking care of our pets. They also watered my flowers, took our garbage to the street, notified us of a problem with our house. Lei even left the prettiest card accompanied by a tiny bunny and vase of flowers. Thank you, Lei and Chris, for your kindness and attention to detail while we were away)”
About: I have taken care of animals since I was a child. Throughout my life, I have experience with taking care of cats & dogs of all ages. I am highly experienced with simple care of animals, and more detailed care like administering medications, grooming, exercising. Every animal has a different personality, and requires a special kind of attention. I have experience with volunteering with animal shelters as well. I am currently full-time with pet care with an extremely flexible schedule. I am willing to overnight pet sit, check in on your pets throughout the day, and anything/everything in between! I have a lot of experience with animals of various backgrounds (abused shelter dogs, strays, feral cats, and domesticated animals). I am very comfortable with all types of pet care. I am able to feed, bathe, love, exercise, and crate your animal(s). Amongst other pet care. Please feel free to ask me any specific questions that would make you more comfortable, that is what I am here for!
“Summer took excellent care of our dogs and sent plenty of pictures, videos and a brief summary of each visit. She did things around the house that she didn’t have to do ensuring the well-being of our dogs. Great communication and I’d definitely recommend Summer.”
About: I’ve had animals all my life and have been caring for dogs and horses for the past 6 years. Friends and family have trusted me to feed, walk, play with, and care for their pets while they’re away. I’m dependable, patient, and treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. I’m currently working toward a career in veterinary medicine, so caring for animals isn’t just something I enjoy it’s my passion. My goal is to make sure every pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I’m currently on summer break from college and working a part-time job, so pet sitting is a great way for me to spend more time doing something I truly enjoy caring for animals. My work schedule is Thursday through Saturday, and I’m available after I get off work on those days. I’m also available on my days off and will do my best to accommodate your pet care needs. I believe in keeping pet parents updated and making sure every pet receives the love, attention, and care they deserve. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I have a fully fenced yard where dogs can safely play and explore, as well as three friendly small dogs who are well-socialized and can provide companionship if your pet enjoys being around other dogs. For drop-in visits, I understand that inviting someone into your home requires trust. I’ll always respect your home, carefully follow your pet’s routine, and make sure they feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, I’ll treat them like they’re part of my own family and provide the attention, patience, and care they deserve.
“Hannah was great in taking care of our cats while we were out of town! She made everything simple and eased any worries we had about leaving our cats for two weeks. She's awesome and so sweet!”
“Danielle did a great job caring for our cats and fish. She was thorough, kind and very communicative. I appreciate her care for my pets, and plan to reach out to her again when we need pet sitting. Recommended!”
About: I bring a bright, positive energy to each walk, making sure your dog feels safe and comfortable. I’m skilled at reading canine behavior and adapting my approach to suit your dog’s unique needs, whether that’s a high-energy adventure or a calm stroll. I work weekends as a Direct Support Personnel so my weekdays are pretty much open all the time. I think I can manage my time pretty well. I give my dog enormous amounts of love. I also try to bring out the best in here through training her new things everyday and just seeing her happy cause it makes me happy. In your home I plan to do the same I have a lot of energy as the young man I am and love new opportunities to do something great!
“I’m beyond impressed with Vivian! Ten stars for communication — she always responded promptly and thoughtfully to my questions, and sent very helpful report backs with photos of my cat. All my nervousness around leaving my cat behind while out of town dissipated knowing she was in trusted hands. Highly recommend.”
“Jennifer is the best. The dogs love her and she was very attentive. She sent me wonderful pics and communicated often. She had a family emergency during her sitting time, but still made sure my pups were taken care of. YES!!! I will use her again.”
About: I have dog sat for many family friends before, including big and small dogs, cats, and even a few birds and guinea pigs! I have walked, fed, brushed, bathed, played with, and even house sat with many different dogs. Currently I work Monday-Wednesday, from 8-5, but that is not set in stone. On days other than those previously listed, I can make anytime of day work. My home is not available to dog sit your pet. I have a not-so-friendly terrier that does not get along well with other dogs. I have dog/house sat in many homes before, so I am perfectly capable of keeping one’s home a tight ship, including cleaning, collecting mail, watering plants, etc.!

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Memphis
I booked her to watch my dog while I was out of town, and I had a great experience! She was very communicative and made sure my dog was well taken care of the entire time. She took my dog on several walks, made sure he was fed, and gave me peace of mind knowing he was in good hands. I definitely recommend her to anyone looking for someone to watch their pet. I would absolutely book with her again!
Cambree is so professional and all around just amazing. My pets love her and she takes the best visit photos!!!! This is the second time I have used her and she is just everything you could possibly ask for in a sitter. I can’t say enough good things about her.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Dog Sitting in Memphis is $20 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $31 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 695 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Memphis. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
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 Memphis 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 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 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 Meet & Greet.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Memphis with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.

- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 95% 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.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
