“Kristin was great with our baby, Sophie. She kept Sophie away from the others until she was comfortable enough to go around them. I appreciated her accommodations. She is very responsive to texts. I highly recommend Kristin as a sitter.”

“We were super nervous that our older dog would be anxious without us after having just been shipped back to the states from Italy but Jecinda and her husband made both of our dogs feel so safe and comfortable that there was no reason for us to be worried! We got updates and pictures and our fur babies had a great time! Unfortunately we won’t be staying in the area past the end of February but we will definitely be booking with her again if needed before we leave and highly recommend her to anyone looking for excellent care of their pets!”

“Lexie did an incredible job with our golden retriever! She sent pictures and kept me updated during my entire trip. I loved the idea that my girlie had someone with her and she got to spend time with kiddos and other dogs. We will definitely book again!”

“My puppy was well taken care of. I was nervous about leaving my baby alone for the first time because she has a couple quirks but Lynsi made me feel very comfortable and at ease. Would most definitely book again!”

“Claudia was great! I had realized I still had my furbaby's dog bed in the car after I got home from dropping him off and I did not have to drive back because Claudia had an extra dog bed. She is very nice and took good care of my dog during his two-day stay. I loved getting pictures and updates while I was away. It definitely gave me peace of mind. I’d happily book with her again!”

“Super happy with Ma’Liyah- I felt stokely was well taken care of. I was late dropping him off and she didn’t complain. Sorry about that too. I will definitely check with her first before we use anyone else. Hopefully she will have us again. Thank you for making this process so easy Mi’Liyah.”

“Hanna was great with Lottie! She kept her on her routine and sent me lots of pictures and videos during her stay, Lottie had such a good time she almost didn’t want to get back in the car to go home. Will definitely be booking with Hanna again!”


About: Animals have always been a big part of my life, and I genuinely enjoy caring for them. I’ve helped foster animals and have experience caring for pets of friends, family, and neighbors. Whether it’s feeding, walking, playtime, administering basic routines, or simply providing companionship, I treat every pet with patience, kindness, and respect. I understand that every animal has its own personality and needs, so I take the time to make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. You can count on me to communicate regularly, follow your instructions carefully, and care for your pet as if they were my own. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in dependable hands. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. My dog, Benji, keeps me active with daily walks, playtime, and outdoor activities. I have a flexible schedule, allowing me to provide reliable care, regular potty breaks, exercise, feeding, and plenty of attention to every pet I care for. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. Benji and I enjoy daily walks and visits to dog parks, and we have the luxury of a large, fenced backyard where dogs can safely run and play. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I’ll follow your routines, respect your instructions, provide lots of love and attention, and send regular photo and video updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
“Pamela goes above and beyond, my pups love her! She has great communication and always keeps us updated through messages and daily photos. We are so grateful for her attentiveness and care and for Pamela being so accommodating for a last minute request. We look forward to our pups next visit with her 🐾”


“Absolutely — here’s a polished review that sounds warm and genuine: Alisha was absolutely amazing with Teddy! From the moment I dropped him off, I could tell he was going to be well cared for. She and her family made Teddy feel right at home, and it was clear from the photos that he was comfortable, relaxed, and happy throughout his stay. Alisha was also fantastic about keeping me updated and sending daily photos, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. I truly appreciated the care, attention, and welcoming environment she provided. I would absolutely trust Alisha with Teddy again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will treat their dog like part of the family!”

“Sarah was great at watching our two dogs over Christmas, even our large one with anxiety. She also didn't have a problem keeping them on such short notice. Definitely recommend.”


“Wonderful over all experience! Sierra had excellent communication with me the entire time. She kept me informed on how Max was doing throughout the day and sent lots of pictures.”


About: I’m a dog mom to three pups of my own, so caring for dogs is already a huge part of my everyday life! I’m comfortable with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels, and I know how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pets. I’m happy to help with walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, and lots of attention and cuddles. I’ll treat your pets with the same patience, care, and love that I give my own. Pet care already fits naturally into my daily routine since I have three dogs of my own! I’m used to planning my day around feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and making sure everyone gets plenty of attention. I work from home, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time to caring for your pets and keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities! I have a fully fenced backyard with plenty of room for safe outdoor play and potty breaks, as well as three dogs of my own, so my home is very pet-friendly. I make introductions carefully and will always consider each dog’s personality and comfort level. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal feeding, potty, sleeping, and medication routines, and dogs can be separated or crated when needed. I’ll also send plenty of pictures and updates so you can relax knowing your pet is safe, comfortable, and having a great time!

“Glad to have found such a wonderful sitter in Dannah. She was so good sending daily pictures and updates on Cohen. I could tell he was having a great time. It’s good to be able to enjoy time away knowing that Cohen is well cared for and enjoying himself.”

“Beth took care of our two dogs again for a third time. We left them for a week. No issues with drop off or pick up - very accessible and flexible with times. They came back happy and well cared for. We will definitely use her services again!!!”

“Brittany was very sweet with my dog! She stayed in regular communication and sent lots of pictures and videos. She took all my notes regarding care seriously. I think my dog had a blast and she had our crate folded and everything packed and ready for us when we came to pick her up. We will definitely be using Brittany again in the future to care for our pups!”

“Angie was truly wonderful! She kept me up to date with so many pictures, I never had to ask, she was on top of it! She took such good care of our fur baby and we felt like we were in good hands! You won’t regret choosing Angie to care and love your fur baby as her own! Thank you Angie!”


“Jesse was amazing! He accepted my booking on very short notice and took excellent care of my dog, Xena, all weekend. He kept me updated, was reliable, and gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. Xena was happy, well cared for, and I could tell she was in great hands. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Jesse again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter. Thank you so much!”

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 Perkinston 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 Perkinston.
<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 Perkinston 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.
