“Brittnye recently sat for our cat for four days, and we couldn’t be happier with the care she provided. She made sure our cat was well-fed and received his medication on schedule, which gave us great peace of mind. Her communication was excellent throughout, and she was reliable, affectionate, and clearly cared deeply for our pet. We truly appreciated the updates and the genuine attention she gave our cat. We look forward to booking with her again and highly recommend her to anyone in need of a trustworthy, caring sitter!”

About: My volunteer rescue experience has allowed me to gain exposure to many kinds of cats, medical care best practices, and observe cats at many stages of life. I've slept on the bathroom floor with kittens, feeding them from a dropper and weighing them every six hours. I've domesticated feral cats through long-term fostering. My favorite type of cats are senior cats, and I have a lot of experience administering meds and showing them love. I am a graduate student who works remotely most of the time. I'm available during the day and at night every day of the week, especially given enough notice. I take pet (and person!) safety and client trust very seriously! I aim to care for your pet as you would. If you're on vacation, I want your pet to feel like they are being pampered, too. Not only does giving them extra love and attention help them while you're away but (as a cat owner myself), I know it will give you peace of mind as well!

About: Professionally taken care of various species of animals such as cats, dogs, reptiles, amphibians, birds, rodents, ferrets, and spiders. Exotic animals are my speciality, but caring for domestic animals is where my animal care experience began. I work a full time job as a zookeeper and take care of large exotic animals. I also care for my personal cats and other pets at home. I have polices and procedures for both my cats and exotic animals that help me to better take care of them at home and away from home.

About: I’ve cared for animals since I was a small child, with neighbors and family trusting me to look after pets of all shapes and sizes — from dogs and cats to amphibians and farm animals. I pride myself on being judgment-free and flexible. No matter what your home looks like, how many pets you have, or where you’re located, your animals will be treated with kindness and respect. I’m experienced with everything from well-loved family pets to special cases and I’m always here to help. I am a college student pursuing a degree at the university of Memphis. In my spare time, I try to fill it with practical hands on animal experience that will further my career. I treat every animal under my care as if they were mine. When I petsit animals, I establish a schedule to make sure all needs are being met, this includes attention of course! I love taking the animals I petsit on field trips, such as the dog park, Hollywood feed or car rides. Any animal under my care is always cheerful with a day jam packed full of fun.

About: As a long time pet owner, I have first hand experience with caring for different animals. From puppies to cats to dogs, I am fully equipped to not only safely supervise pets, but to also play and engage with them for a fun and loving experience. I have been the mama to the sweetest stray male tabby for the past year so I have tons of experience with cats and kittens too! As a previous owner of a disabled doggo, I have developed patience and determination when it comes to caring for pets. For example, I am unlike many other owners in that I am understanding when it comes to dogs who are in the process of being house trained. I won’t reprimand the animal in a harmful or scary way. Instead. I will guide them toward better potty training practices. I am also a very patient dog walker, some pets take longer outside or simply want to explore an area. Pets have a natural curiosity and they should be able to act on that curiosity! I care for pets as if they were all my own. It is very important for owners to trust their animal caretakers. I can assure that owners can trust that I will care for their pets with love and kindness. Thank you for choosing me to be your rover caretaker! I work remotely so I am free during the day for play time, potty breaks, and mid-day cuddles. I also have tons of cat toys and welcome dogs owners to bring interactive toys for the pups. I have a semi fenced in huge backyard and designated play areas equipped with interactive toys, treats, and more. I also have a very sweet and gentle 1 year old cat to be the perfect playmate

About: I have been pet/house sitting for family and friends for 5 years now. I have worked in childcare(babysitting nannying, etc) for even longer so I consider the transition to be beneficial and seamless. I am a full time student and have a part time afternoon job. This gives me a lot of flexibility to take care of your pets needs throughout the day! I am dependable and will take care of the needs of your pet no matter how specific. I care about making your pet feel as in their normal routine as possible.

About: We are a married couple in our 40s interested in house/pet-sitting together. We have pet-sat for a few NC and TN families for the past several years, and both of us had pet-sat before we met as well. Zachary works from home and so will be around the house much of the day if dogs need a mid-day walk or meal. Denny wakes up early and can feed and walk dogs in the early morning. Between us, we have experience with cats, dogs, fish, birds, rodents, rabbits, livestock, reptiles, and amphibians. We are willing to work with other animals as well. We prefer to sleep at the pet-owner's home when needed, as this means that we’re around and available for the pets at various times throughout the day. Denny also does drop-in care and dog-walking. Zachary has experience training dogs and volunteering with cats as well. Looking forward to meeting you! Zachary has a flexible work schedule and works from home. Denny is available to care for pets in the mornings, sometimes late afternoons, evenings, and weekends. We both enjoy walking and hiking and would love to take your dogs for walks. We don’t bring pets into our home but prefer overnight care in the pets’ home and are also open to drop-in care and walks. We are both very gentle with dogs and cats and enjoy lots of cuddles with pets, and we also make sure to take them for walks if desired.

About: I've always been into nature, animals, insects and pets. My grandmother would always joke and say that I should be a Veterinarian when I grow up. Between playing with earth worms, petting any dog I see or spoiling my own pups, I love people and I love their animals and pets. For the past decade, having to care for other's pets never felt like a chore. It remains the foundation of my desire to join Rover. Even after being bitten by an unsuspecting, unpredictable pit bull, I will continue being a dog lover. I have been a pet caregiver since I was a teen. Now that I've discovered Rover, I can take this to the next level. I'm actually late to the Rover party! I currently have open availability as of August 2026. That could be changing to part-time availability soon. I will update my availability as needed. I am devoted to absolute safety and trust. I promise to treat you, your property and furry family members with the same love, attention and care that I would treat my own.

About: I’ve had and cared for animals my entire life. I’ve also worked at pet stores and humane societies. There is no better way to spend your time than being surrounded by animals. I care for animals because being a portable pooper scooper and a human chew toy aren’t considered real jobs. Let me know what your needs are and we’ll work together to make sure that your babies are taken care of when you can’t be home with them. I will always show the utmost respect to your pet and your home. This includes cleaning up after myself and your pet during our time together, removing my shoes before entering your home if you would like, and anything else that will make you comfortable with the arrangement.

“Kayla did a wonderful job of taking care of our 3 kitties. One of them needed to be given oral meds 2x a day and she handled it with no problem! She kept me updated on how they were doing with pics and texts. I felt very comfortable having her stay in our home as well. She even brought in some fresh flowers that had been delivered and put them in vases so they would stay fresh for my return. I highly recommend Kayla and will definitely use her again in the future!”

Bridgett showed up to drop in visits on time. I would book with her again in the future. She was kind enough to move some heavy packages in the garage for me that were delivered unexpectedly while we were gone.

FAQs for Cat Sitting - Southaven

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost of Cat Sitting in Southaven is $11 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $11 and $17 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 102 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Southaven. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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.

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

  • 86% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 86% 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.

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.
