About: I have cared for large breed dogs for my entire life, and I’ve worked in animal care for 5 years. I am experienced in administering medications and understanding animal behavior from my work in animal shelters. I currently work at a veterinary clinic! I am off on every other weekend, and have a day off during the week. During every work day I am available to check in on your pets on my lunch break, and I get off early in the evening so I have plenty of afternoon time to spend with them! I am new to Rover, but have been pet sitting for many reoccurring clients for about 3 years now. I currently have four cats of my own, and I am a neonatal kitten foster and have bottle babies on and off. As such, I am adept at handling fragile cats with special needs. I am very experienced in administering medications of all types to both cats and dogs, including injections, oral, topical, etc.
“Yet again, Oliver was a life saver. He took AMAZING care of my IVDD french bulldog. Mind you, that include all of my 50000 anxious texts and questions over a 5 day trip. On top of that, my house had an electrical issue while I was away. Oliver calmly handled all of the contractors that came to deal w the issue. All that to say, I cannot recommend Oliver enough as the best dogsitter ever!!! If you need pet care while you go out of town, he is the one. Im pretty sure my pup now prefers Oliver's lap to mine haha. From koda and I: THANK YOU OLIVER!”
“We love having Magnolia watch our pets in our house when we’re out of town. One of our cats has a health issue and we feel so comfortable with Magnolia watching her. When we got home the kitties were happy, bowls were full, and house was clean. Thank you!!”
“Brittany took excellent care of our dogs. Upon return, the house was neat and cleaned up. One of our dogs loved her so much, he was visibly disappointed when we returned...😆 We will be using her again!”
“Abby was great! She helped us out for weekend house/dog sitting in a pinch! She did great, sending updates and photos. Definitely recommend and will use again.”

“Brianna was amazing with my puppy and cat!! My puppy was always well behaved when left alone but while I was traveling she discovered a love of cardboard and Brianna was able to get to her quickly and make sure she couldn’t eat anymore of it. Brianna was also able to bond quickly with both of them, who are normally very shy and she was even able to take my puppy out for short walks (she’s normally very scared on walks). And the house was just as I left it! 10/10 would totally recommend!”
“Aaron took great care of my rambunctious puppy. He provided constant communication about everything and was very attentive to my pup's needs. He even went above and beyond and came back to let Boba out for an extra potty because I wouldn't be home until later than we thought. Boba is happy and from the pix and videos, it looks like he made a new bestie in Aaron.”
“I was moving and needed a sitter to watch over my babies during all the commotion. Kissie was perfect, she’s compassionate, kind and truly loves animals. She arrived on time with a big warm smile! My dogs were already stressed from the previous few days and they weren’t the easiest pets to sit for. Kissie was very understanding, having no problems dealing with their difficulties and challenges. Kissie was my first Rover experience and she was amazing! She’s bright, easy to communicate with and simply a lovely person. Thank you Kissie! You were the brightest star during our entire move and we appreciate your taking such good care of us!”
“So glad we went with Lauren to watch our dogs while we went on vacation. I had so much peace of mind knowing they were in good hands. She handled our big dogs with ease and all of the instructions we left were easily taken care of. Highly recommend you guys to book her!”
“Amy is phenomenal. She took such great care of our pets and our home while we were out of town. One of our dogs has severe anxiety and she handled him like a true pro. Definitely recommend.”

Abby was professional and communicative throughout our initial meeting and her time dog sitting in my home. She sent pictures and was respectful of my space- leaving it just as clean (or cleaner) than it was when she arrived. I felt 100% comfortable leaving my dog in her care.
Mary was really amazing with my boys! She came and met them the weekend before she was going to watch them and was very flexible on her schedule to hang out with my animals! She took my dog to the dog park and walked him! She sent me lots of pictures of everyone and kept me updated in the morning and night which I appreciated! Everything went very smooth and I will definitely be rebooking!
Kissie was absolutely fantastic with our boy Hank! She sent us multiple updates/photos/videos every day we were gone, which we greatly appreciated! We were gone over the holidays so having someone here with Hank to take care of him and love him put as at such ease. Kissie also left the apartment spotless, picked up packages, and took out the trash. Thank you so much and we’ll definitely book her again in the future!
Charlee is a phenomenal sitter! She has been keeping our babies for a couple of years, and she has been nothing short of amazing each and every time. She is timely, communicative, and thorough. I trust her, and I know that she treats my pets like her own. Having her care for them while away puts me at absolute ease.

Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Memphis walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Memphis maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
<b>Tip:</b> Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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!
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.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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 .
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.
