About: Your pup will receive the exceptional, personalized care they deserve! I go above and beyond traditional pet sitting to make every stay fun, enriching, and memorable. During the summer, pups can enjoy walks, splash-pad fun, doggy pool days at my home, and special pet-friendly events hosted by PetSmart and Hollywood Feed. During the holidays, I love creating festive experiences with pet-themed celebrations, special activities, and goodie bags! I prioritize safe, supervised socialization, plenty of one-on-one attention, and opportunities to play with other dogs when appropriate. Your pup will have access to tons of toys, interactive sniffing toys, dog puzzles, and lick mats to keep them mentally stimulated and entertained. With owner approval, I also offer quality, organic treats and pup cups for extra-special rewards! I have experience caring for dogs of different breeds, sizes, personalities, and life stages, including energetic puppies and senior dogs who need a little extra patience and attention. I understand that puppies need consistent supervision, positive reinforcement, patience, and opportunities to learn, explore, and burn off energy. Senior dogs deserve that same love, with care tailored to their comfort, mobility, routines, and individual needs. My goal is to make every pup feel safe, loved, included, and right at home. With plenty of playtime, enrichment, affection, and personalized attention, I strive to send every dog home happy, fulfilled, and ready for a well-deserved nap I’m currently a student, primarily with morning classes, and I stay on top of my coursework by completing assignments promptly and staying organized. This allows me to have plenty of availability and flexibility for pet care. I make sure to plan my schedule around the pets I care for so they receive the attention, companionship, and care they deserve! I prioritize creating a safe, comfortable, and loving environment where every pet feels at home. I follow your instructions closely regarding feeding, walks, medications, routines, and any special needs. I always respect each pet’s personality and boundaries while providing plenty of supervision, affection, and companionship. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your pet is in caring, attentive hands!

I want to love your furbaby like I love my own! I would love to take care of any needs you may have. Feel free to ask any questions! I am a junior at Ole Miss. I mostly have online classes, so I am free a lot! I am also free for overnight housesitting needs! I have 2 dogs back home in Georgia and I miss them so much! They are the happiest pups ever! My roommates and I have a Golden Retriever that we adopted last year! As far as boarding and doggy daycare goes, he would love to play with your pup, but they can also be easily separated if needed! I have so much love for pets, and would love to share so much love to yours!
“Ainsley did a great job looking after my boy! She was punctual, and kept his dishes and feeding area clean. She gave him so much love and made sure to send me updates and pictures. I will absolutely be requesting her services again!”
About: I have always had pets growing up and currently have 3 dogs and a cat, all ranging in different sizes and personalities. I am happy to help. I am available full time during the week currently, happy to pop in during the morning or afternoons. I am available to house sit on per request. I am good with varying temperaments and can handle different levels of care. I will always keep the pet on leash for walks or ensure the fence is securely closed. I will not leave any pets outside unless specifically instructed.

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Oxford is $17 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $12 and $38 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.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
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.

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.
