Heather was wonderful she went above and beyond taking care of my cats! Despite the snow and ice she made sure to get there and feed them and give them attention while I have been out of town. She is respectful and is a great communicator, would definitely trust her with my kitties anytime ☺️

About: I’ve taken care of a lot of different animals from horses to squirrels all my life. I’m dependable, patient, and treat every pet like family, ensuring they feel happy and loved. Feel free to ask me anything in regards to experience! I am currently a full time student at Nova Southeastern University majoring in marine biology. I have an easier schedule this semester so Im free most days at different times. I feed my dog usually once a day because he’s not a very fast eater and picks at it throughout the day but I have experience in hourly feeding for other dogs as well. I also have a fenced backyard at my house in SC but I have experience in walking too.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for many years and have experience with both large and small breeds. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy, patient, and attentive to your pet’s needs. I am comfortable with feeding schedules, walks, playtime, administering basic medications, and providing lots of love and companionship. I have experience caring for energetic dogs, senior dogs, and pets that require extra attention. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and comfortable while you’re away, and I’ll treat them like part of my own family. I’m available to take care of your pups on weekends. I can also provide house sitting on weekends and throughout the week. Additionally, I can take your pup on a 30 minute walk through the day. To provide safety while staying in a client’s home, I keep doors and windows locked, follow all care instructions, maintain the home’s security, monitor the pets closely, and immediately report any emergencies or concerns to the owner.

About: Hi! I’m Katie, a lifelong animal lover who grew up with cats and now shares life with my two dogs, Ghost and Nox. Caring for animals has always been second nature to me, and I understand how important it is to find someone you trust with your pets. Whether your pet prefers long walks, playtime, cuddles on the couch, or simply sticking to their normal routine, I’m committed to making them feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. Having experience with both cats and dogs, I’m comfortable caring for different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I believe every pet deserves individualized attention and care, and I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own. You’ll also receive regular updates and photos, so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! 🐾 Pet care is already a natural part of my daily routine. I work full-time remotely from home, which gives me flexibility throughout the day for visits and check-ins, though my availability is best in the early mornings, evenings, and on weekends. As a lifelong animal lover who grew up with cats and now has two dogs of my own, I understand that every pet has unique needs, routines, and personalities. Whether it’s walks, feeding, playtime, litter box maintenance, cuddle time, or simply providing companionship, I’m committed to making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I treat every pet as if they were my own and provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing they’re in good hands. 🐾❤️ I provide care in my clients’ homes so pets can stay comfortable in their familiar environment and maintain their normal routine. Whether I’m stopping in for visits or staying overnight, I follow all care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), litter box cleaning, and any other specific requests. My goal is to make your pet feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality and preferences, whether they enjoy lots of attention and activity or prefer a calmer, quieter approach. I also respect your home, keeping it clean and secure while providing dependable care for your pets. You’ll receive regular updates and photos throughout my visits or stay, so you can have peace of mind knowing your pets are happy and well cared for. 🐾💕

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Ridgeland

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Ridgeland on Rover is $22.2 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of July 2026, there are 909 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Ridgeland. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Ridgeland stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Ridgeland. On Rover:

  • 94% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.

Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
