“Anna was the perfect person to care for our girls. Puppies are hard. Two puppies are even harder but she Rocked it. I wrote instructions for her and she followed them to the ‘T’ even using our ‘command words’. She even set in the floor cuddling them during a storm to calm her fears I will definitely use her again.”
“What can I say about Victoria? She was absolutely amazing with my two anxious boys. My boys have allergies, anxiety and one has GI issues. Victoria followed my instructions to the letter and gave them their necessary medicine every day. I have never left them that long (was gone about 9-10 days) but Victoria sent video, photo and verbal updates every day all throughout the day which I really appreciated. Her husband is great as well, and I felt good actually being on vacation and enjoying it because I knew my pups were well taken care of. She was patient, caring and kind, and she took really good care of my babies. She even washed my pups’ bowls and spoons. I will definitely be utilizing Victoria’s services again.”
“Thank you so much Lindsey! I can tell Rudy had a wonderful time! And thanks to you my family and I had a wonderful vacation also, without having to worry about our pup!”
“I can’t say enough great things about Sandy and how amazing she was with our dog Maceo. Her techniques to make dogs feel comfortable are well educated and are great for all breeds. She is a pro, she has a high priority on safety, her place is very nice, clean, well organized and perfect for pups. Our dog LOVED playing with her very friendly sweet dog Minnie, her dog is submissive and Just the kindest dog that just wants to have fun! Awesome dog and awesome owner :) And the photos and videos she sent us every day, multiple times a day put us st ease, she put our dog first, she is so knowledgeable and kind, we will definable be back, we will recommend her to friends, and would be happy to talk to future clients about our wonderful experience. I would give her 10 stars if the rating system would let me!!! Only very positive things to say about Sandy!!!”
About: I have 20+ years in caring for someone elses loved ones. Growing up, I have always had a dog family member and I absolutely love animals. I’ve never had a day without a pet in my life. I have a spacious fenced in yard, that your pet can run and play. I am home all hours of the day and nigh and can honor any needs your pet requires. Your best friend is my best friend in this house! I am home all day! I am able to follow all routines your pet may have. We can play fetch or snuggle, whichever your furry friend needs! Although I do require a 24 hour request to prepare for sitting. Your pets safety and comfort are my top priority. I have a fenced in yard, with plenty of room to play or couches they can lounge on. Whichever they prefer, I have both!
“Adele was super sweet and so flexible with us! My baby was so happy and comfortable with her. She was incredibly kind, calm, and caring, and she even made her the sweetest little care package. It was such a thoughtful touch! I felt completely at ease leaving her with Adele and would absolutely book with her again!”

While you enjoy your time away your baby will be able to enjoy cuddling on the couch watching tv or running outside in my fenced yard with my 2 goofballs. My goal is to make sure your baby is well taken care of and comfy so you have one less thing to worry about while you’re away. I currently work full time at the hospital. I have plenty of time in the mornings and after work to care for your pets needs. I have a fenced in back yard and 2 dogs to keep your fur baby company! I accommodate all stays and visits to what makes you and your pet most comfortable!
“Regan was very accommodating and so sweet to our dog! She was excellent at keeping us informed on how he was doing, and he loved playing with friends during his stay, and having a home full of dog lovers! Will be using again!!”
“This is the first time we left our dog with anyone outside of family and were a little apprehensive. Needless to say there was no reason to be. Karen was great. Very attentive to the dog's needs and sent us pictures daily that made us feels better about leaving her. Would recommend Karen and plan to use her in the future.”
“Bobbi was a great sitter for our 2 pups. She updated me with pictures and more almost everyday we were gone. She bought toys for them as well. I will definitely ask Bobbi to take care of our babies again”
“This was he first time I used Rover. I was in town for a family event and very happy to have found Kirsten. As far as I'm concerned she set the standard for what I will be looking for when I use Rover in the future. I can sum up my feelings by what she said to me. "I treat guest doggies the way I want someone to take care of my own". She sent photos and text messages to let let me know all was well. I may never get back to Covington but if I did I would definitely book with Kirsten.”
“This was our first time using a sitter for our Peanut. Lauren scheduled a meet and greet before our trip to see how the dogs got along. All went well at the meet and greet. During Peanut's stay, Lauren sent numerous pictures and updates. We will definitely use again!”
“Amber is awesome! My pup, Marina, had THE BEST time with Amber!! She was very communicative, easy to work with, and an excellent trustworthy dogsitter. My pup didn’t want to leave she had so much fun! We will definitely be rebooking again real soon!”
“5 stars! I couldn’t be happier with the care Nova received! Abogail and her wonderful children went above and beyond to make sure my Nova was comfortable and happy while I was away. I accidentally forgot to pack my dog’s bowls and toys, but she was so prepared and thoughtful she had extra bowls and plenty of toys on hand, which really put my mind at ease. I could tell Nova was well loved and well taken care of the entire time. She made sure to stay in contact with me with updates and pictures which I greatly appreciated! I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring, and prepared sitter! If I could give more than 5 starts I would! Don’t think twice Abogail is the best choice you will not be disappointed I PROMISE!”
“Cierra was awesome - very quick to respond to the request for booking, even though it was very "last minute". She was very friendly and professional and obviously took very good care of our dog while we were away. Cierra kept us updated frequently on our dog throughout the weekend with texts and photos. She was also very flexible with the scheduling. Overall, we HIGHLY recommend Cierra D. and will be calling on her again in the future!!”
“Courtney was wonderful and took such good care of our dog. She sent pictures daily and really cares about the animals she cares for!! We will use her again in the future!”
“Elen is amazing to work with! She has the calmest, sweetest nature that instantly put both myself and our pup at ease. Our dog loved playing with her dog, received lots of exercise and loving care. We appreciated the pictures and video that she was thoughtful enough to send. When our pick up time was delayed due to bad traffic she was more than accommodating. And her gone and yard are clean, warm and welcoming. Our dog loved his stay. We will be using her again in the future!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Nicholson home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Nicholson.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Nicholson sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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 .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in MS ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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 dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog 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.
