“Bethany did an amazing job, following my instructions to a tee and checking in on each visit. This gave me such peace of mind, especially with my elderly boy. The boys seemed happy upon our arrival home. I will definitely request her in future!”
“Eleanor was very responsible and our family felt like she was taking care of our dogs well. We got photos of them every day we were away. She was great about responding and getting in touch with any questions or concerns in a timely matter. We will definitely rebook with her in the future.”
“Katie was amazing. My kitkats felt comfortable enough to come out and interact with her, including the newest and shyest kitties. She also helped keep their days enriched by reorganizing their toys and changing their cat tv. Thank you Katie!”
“Rachelle took great care of Earl while I was gone for several days! She was quick to respond to messages and super flexible when my travel dates changed.”
“Ryan took great care of my dog while I was out of town for a week. She stopped by my house 3 times a day and walked my dog in the evenings. She sent me cute pictures which I appreciated. I was so happy that she was in good hands while I was gone.”
“Melanie did a good job taking care of our shy kitty. She sent pictures even if we didn't asked for them and that was nice. Good communication and fast response. We do recommend her!”
About: Hi there! I’m a full-time mom with a big heart for animals — and years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, breeds, and medical needs. Whether you need help with daily walks, feedings, medication, or just some loving company for your furry friend while you're away, I provide dependable, compassionate care you can trust. I've raised both dogs and cats from playful kittens and puppies to senior pets with special needs, and I understand how important it is to have someone responsible and attentive looking after your beloved companions. ✨ Hard-working ✨ Trustworthy ✨ Flexible scheduling ✨ Experienced with medications and special care needs Let’s chat about how I can help you and your pet! As a full-time mom, my daily routine is built around care, attention, and responsibility — the same values I bring to pet care. I'm home throughout the day and evening, which gives me the flexibility to provide pet visits, feedings, medications, playtime, or just some quiet company whenever your pet needs it. My calm, structured home life allows me to give your pet consistent, loving care while still being available for early morning, mid-day, or nighttime visits. Pet care isn’t just a side job — it’s something that fits naturally into my life and brings me joy. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat it with the same respect and care I would my own. I understand how important it is to feel confident that your home and pets are in trustworthy hands. I follow your specific instructions closely, whether it’s feeding schedules, medication routines, or just the little habits that make your pet feel comfortable and secure. Safety is always my top priority — I double-check doors and gates, clean up after pets properly, and keep an eye out for anything unusual in your pet’s behavior or environment. I’ll gladly send updates and photos so you can feel at ease while you're away. My goal is to give your pet loving, consistent care and give you total peace of mind.
“Katie took wonderful care of our two dogs, making sure they had ample breaks during the day, sticking to their schedule and going above and beyond to make sure the pups were comfortable while we were gone. A+ all around, thank you Katie!!!”
About: I’ve been around dogs since I was a kid. Recently I have started dog sitting for family friends and decided to join on here to offer my services. I’m currently working full time from 7am-3:30pm in office 5 days a week M-F. Within my work hours, I’m not available to do visits. Outside of these hours, any dog I care for will have my undivided time and attention. I take care of the pet I’m watching over by taking them on walks, play with them, and making sure they are well fed. I like to make sure they are well accounted for and treat them as my own.
“Brad was very responsive to a last minute request to let my dogs out when I couldn’t get back home in time to feed them. He fed them and let them out and hung out with them for awhile.”
“Lauryn has been great to work with and she shows a genuine love for my sons Mini Ausie Shepherd. We will continue to utilized Lauryn through March. I very highly recommend her”
“Lucy was wonderful! I booked her at the last minute to drop in and feed and check up on my cat who was recovering from diarrhea. Lucy saved my family vacation from having to be cancelled and took excellent care of my fur baby. I would definitely recommend!”
“Jenni was great! She was very attentive and happy to take care of all the needs of our dogs. She was reliable and punctual. She kept me in the loop after each visit which set my mind at ease. I really appreciated her time and TLC.”
“Kayla did great! My super high energy and anxiety dog loved her immediately and even shared her toys with Kayla. This is something she doesn't normally do with strangers.”
About: Full time job with ability to help do check-ins and help outside work hours. I can come before/after work or help on weekend as able. I’m working full time so this is on the side as I have the ability on a part time basis. I am excited to help out and get started. I can care for your animal at your home, and am happy to do anything for your pet that would make them more comfortable during your time away
About: Hi there! My name is Laura, and I work in the legal field. I have been around dogs for just about my whole life and absolutely love animals. I currently have two dogs of my own. I have also dogsat for multiple families since I was an adolescent and have volunteered at the Humane Society of Memphis and Shelby County, working with both cats and dogs. In March 2017, I found and rescued two very sweet dogs from the streets of Memphis. I taught them basic manners, helped them overcome their fear of cars, and showed them lots of love. It was a very rewarding experience and has given me the confidence to work with a wide variety of animals. I work in office M - F 7:45am-4:30pm. I am currently only accepting pets that can be left alone during that time period without incident. I am extremely cautious to avoid situations in which a pet could escape or become injured in my care. I trust pet parents to disclose information pertinent to their pets’ care and safety.

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Sappington
As always, the cats were only kind of glad to see us - Heather takes such good card of them - especially our old cat who can't see or hear well. And the house was spic and span! Always a pleasure to come home to our cats/house when Heather has been the sitter.
Claire was wonderful! She was very communicative, flexible, and took great care of Bruno while I was out of town. Bruno takes several medications and occasionally has seizures, so it can be stressful leaving him, but Claire made me feel completely at ease and gave me so much peace of mind knowing he was in good hands. I would absolutely recommend her and will definitely use her again! 🥰🐶
I highly recommend Anna for your in-home pet-sitting needs. It would be difficult to find someone more dedicated to her clients' pets' well-being and happiness, while also providing owners with peace of mind. Anna sends daily updates, asks thoughtful questions, and works hard to build a strong rapport with both pets and their owners.
Kelly did an amazing job! Our pups were completely comfortable with her and received wonderful care. She provided updates for every single visit, and the pups looked incredibly happy in all of her photos. Even with our last-minute request, she jumped right in and reassured us that they would be well looked after. Thank you so much!
Amy was a life saver! This was our first time using the rover app and she made sure our Dog was very well taken care. She made sure to send us alot of pictures and kept us updated on the daily. Little does she know made my trip stress free knowing our dog was in good hands. I will definitely be using her services again.
This was my first time using Rover to have someone check on my dogs. I was a bit nervous of how it would go since my dogs get scared easily of new people, but Karen was very patient and attentive with them and overall did a fantastic job! She provided updates during each of the check ins and bonded with the dogs as the days went by. I would 100% recommend Karen as a dog sitter and if I need someone to watch my dogs again using Rover, Karen would be my first choice!
Asa was wonderful. I received pictures and updates. She took time with each of my cats as they have to be kept separate. I came home to each of my cats being well taking care of, everything being tidy, and both of the kitties having attention. I am so happy with Asa’s care!
Anne was absolutely wonderful with our four month old puppy. He loves meeting new people, but is still very energetic (and teething). She was very patient with him and added in lots of playtime to tire him out. We will be highly recommending her to friends and family in the area!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Sappington is $20 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $16 and $30 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. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 2,722 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Sappington. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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 Sappington. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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 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.
