“She is the best!!! She came in and met the pups and fell in love with them, and she took very good care of them. She stayed overnight and they looked so happy to see us and they were very happy and they weren't acting out. I honestly love working with her. I will definitely go back to her anytime I need her. She is the best and she makes your house look like you never left.”
“Anthony was great with watching my standard poodle, Georgie! He was responsive and always kept me informed on how Georgie was doing. I could definitely tell Georgie loved hanging out with him! Will definitely book Anthony again! For dog care on Mud Island, Anthony is great!”
“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.”

About: Professionally taken care of various species of animals such as cats, dogs, reptiles, amphibians, birds, rodents, ferrets, and spiders. Exotic animals are my speciality, but caring for domestic animals is where my animal care experience began. I work a full time job as a zookeeper and take care of large exotic animals. I also care for my personal cats and other pets at home. I have polices and procedures for both my cats and exotic animals that help me to better take care of them at home and away from home.
“Mickale was fantastic with my puppy. I know this because normally when I walk and he’s super excited. When I walked in this time he didn’t really care to see me that means he had a great time with her, my apartment was left spotless, my dog was healthy. She was very communicative. I genuinely appreciate her for pulling me out of a bind.”
About: I have an amazing dog park on my rooftop that will allow your fur babies to socialize/play as much as their hearts desire! I know pet parents are looking for somewhere fun yet safe for their children to be housed while away and not have a single care in the world. I work fully remote so I will be with your fur babies majority of the time. As I work remote, I enjoy getting away from the desk, getting some of that fresh New York air, and I’ll make sure to take your pups along with me. In my home, your pets will roam freely as they please. I take a chance to get away from the desk any time I need and I will surely bring your fur baby along with me.
“Thank you so much Josh for the incredible care you gave my dog! I’m beyond grateful for the extra visits and attention you provided, especially when she was having stomach issues. You truly went above and beyond. It was such a relief knowing she was in good hands, and I would definitely book again – thank you for everything!”
“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!”
About: I have loved animals since I was a young child. I love caring for dogs and also the flexibility to travel, so I do not have a pup of my own. I started dog sitting in high school and college while on breaks from school and it brings me so much joy to care for everyone's pups. I work full-time in a physical therapy clinic, so I am typically able to run home during my lunch break if dogs are in need of a restroom break. I am always excited to spend time with animals in any way possible! Sometimes this looks like stopping at someone's house on the way home from work if they need walked, staying in their home, or their dog(s) staying with me. I do not have any pets of my own, so if your dog does not get along well with other dogs they will be comfortable in my home. I have a roommate who also loves dogs but does not have any pets. If your dog(s) love others, we can enjoy walks and dog parks and play dates with others! I am very careful when entering and residing in others homes, and try to make sure the environment is the same or cleaner than I left it.
“Akilah went above and beyond. She helped me out when another sitter cancelled last second. My dog and cat loved her as soon as they met her. She sent me photos and videos while I was away. She even took out the trash and washed the sheets in the room she was staying in!! Will definitely use her again.”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs for over 13 years and understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. As a lifelong dog owner, I’ve cared for both energetic pups and senior dogs who required extra patience, compassion, and attentive care. I know how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I’ll treat your pet as if they were my own. Whether it’s walks, playtime, medication, cuddles, or simply keeping them company, my goal is to make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I currently work part-time as a bartender, which gives me a flexible schedule to provide dependable care for your pets. Whether your dog is staying overnight, coming for daycare, or just needs a walk or drop-in visit, I’ll make sure they get plenty of exercise, playtime, attention, and love. I live in the Raleigh, Memphis area, making it convenient for local families. I’ll do my best to accommodate your pet’s routine and any special scheduling needs. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. My home is clean, smoke-free, calm, and pet-friendly, with a securely fenced backyard where dogs can safely run and play. I also live near several parks and walking trails, providing plenty of opportunities for exercise and enrichment. I have a friendly, social cat who gets along well with other animals and can be comfortably kept anway and completely separated if needed. I also have a sweet, laid-back, crate-trained 7-year-old Chihuahua who enjoys playing with visiting dogs of all sizes and has a gentle temperament. With over 13 years of experience caring for dogs, including senior dogs and those with disabilities, anxiety, and special needs, I understand that every pet is unique. My professional background as a therapist has strengthened my patience, observation skills, and ability to remain calm and attentive, helping me recognize changes in behavior and provide compassionate, individualized care. I’m comfortable administering medications, providing baths and light grooming if requested, and carefully following your pet’s feeding schedule, exercise routine, and any special instructions. Pets are welcome on the furniture, and you’ll receive regular photo and video updates so you can relax knowing your furry family member is safe, loved, and treated like one of my own.
“Adel was wonderful with our very anxious pup. This is the first time we've left her more than a few hours and we felt very comfortable leaving her with Adel. He did his best to keep her calm even though she was really missing me! He stayed in contact and sent pictures.”
“Mikayla was the best ever! I have 2 semi-reactive pitbull mixes and live in an apartment complex so walking them is a challenge and she did great!! She sent so many updates and I was never worried about them one bit! Would 1000% book again!! :)”
About: I grew up with a variety of dogs — a golden, dachshund, and Pomeranian. I think I’m well-equipped to handle a variety of them, and I understand each dog has its own idiosyncrasies that must be tended to. I’m virtually available whenever now that I’m finished with school and I’m eager to get started! As far as how pet care fits in my own regimen, I don’t neglect any of my dog’s needs and feed, water, and walk him everyday, and I can assure you there’s nothing to worry about when I care for yours! I genuinely enjoy being around dogs — being without one throughout college has made me realize how sorely I’ve missed having one, and I’ve recently taken on a new one! You won’t have to worry about a lack of attention — I love meeting and interacting with them, and, more importantly, you won’t have to worry about them wreaking havoc while you’re gone.
“Brooke did her usual superb job of caring for Bingo who can be a bit of a challenge at times. She took such good care of our fur baby and kept us updated with reports and pictures. We feel lucky to have her taking care of Bingo allowing us to enjoy our vacation with peace of mind.”
“Brittney was awesome !!!! My dogs loves her from the minute they met her. She took good care of all my babies . She sent photos and updated me along the way!!! I would definitely recommend her and will use her again.”

Anthony was great with watching my standard poodle, Georgie! He was responsive and always kept me informed on how Georgie was doing. I could definitely tell Georgie loved hanging out with him! Will definitely book Anthony again! For dog care on Mud Island, Anthony is great!

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!
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.
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.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of House Sitting in Memphis is $31 per night as of October 2026. Most bookings cost between $25 and $57 per night. 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.

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.
Tip: 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Memphis. On Rover:
- 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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.
