“I felt that Myra took amazing care of my little friend. I will definitely be using her again if I am ever needing a sitter for my dog. She provided updates and photos to assure me that my dog was getting attention and proper care.”
“Bridgett was awesome with my girls! They loved playing with her dog Niko (hope I spelled that correctly). I felt so at ease with leaving my girls in her care! We will definitely be using Bridgett again!”
“Brett and Stephanie were absolutely fantastic! Our girls really enjoyed their time there and all the fun activities and friends they met. We greatly appreciated the updates and daily pictures 🥰 We will definitely bring lil girl and chi back to stay!”
“Mrs. Allison was the sweetest ! This was my dog’s first time away from me and she made me feel so comfortable. She sent countless pics daily, and he was in absolute heaven! I joked the whole week about how he was not going to want to come home lol. 10/10 HIGHLY recommend!”
“Ms. Nina is a great sitter. She gave updates about my dog & was very flexible with pick up and drop off timing. I felt at ease with my dog at her home. Thank you so much!!!”
“Alecia was responsive, caring, and sweet to our pups chunk and bandit. She even got them their own bones for Christmas! She sent lots of pictures and made sure our boys had plenty of playtime outside. Very highly recommend!”
“First I would like to say how kind Merry and Wade are, it was very nice meeting them. They took very good care of my fur baby; he came back to me a happy pup! Merry kept me updated throughout the entire stay so I did not have to worry about Bear at all. Of note, I really appreciate that they keep the large dogs separate from the small dogs and slowly introduce the fur babies as appropriate. I highly recommend Merry and Wade for your boarding needs!”
“Julie was the perfect dog-sitter! She was flexible with drop-off and pick-up times, and she sent several videos showing me how my pup (6 mo. old Great Dane) was faring while I was gone. Unfortunately my pup had some stress-related diarrhea for the first few days, and Julie not only handled it without any apparent trouble, but she also communicated how my girl was doing as she settled in and felt better. My pup got to socialize with Julie’s personal dogs in a safe, fenced environment, which was exactly what I hoped would happen, and Julie managed my pup’s high energy with plenty of structured outside time. Overall, I will DEFINITELY be using Julie again!”
“This was our first time leaving our dogs, King and Dobby, with someone outside of our family, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience with Will. From the start, he was incredibly kind, professional, and attentive to their needs. He went above and beyond to make them feel comfortable and at home, and it was clear they absolutely loved him! Will kept us updated with photos and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. You can tell he genuinely cares about the animals he watches. We’re so grateful to have found someone we trust, and we’ll definitely be booking with him again!”
“April was excellent with Dallas! She kept me informed as well as sent several pictures letting me know how Dallas was doing. I will use her again and just recommended 2 other customers.”
About: I’ve had dogs and cats for most of my life—cats were actually my first love, and I’m still a total sucker for them! While I don’t currently have a cat of my own, I’m very happy to provide drop-in care for your feline family members. At home, I have two friendly Golden Retrievers, Aspen and Indy, who enjoy having canine companions around. I work from home, so dogs staying with me get plenty of attention, potty breaks, playtime and companionship throughout the day. We also have a large fenced yard where they have plenty of room to safely get outside and play. I know every pet has their own personality and routine—from the social butterfly who wants constant attention to the shy one who needs time and patience to feel comfortable. I’ll follow your pet’s routine and care for them like I would want someone to care for mine. And because I know how hard it can be to leave them, I’m happy to send plenty of photos and updates while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I work from home, so I’m home throughout the day with my own two dogs, Aspen and Indy. This gives me plenty of flexibility for meals, potty breaks, playtime, walks, cuddles and lots of companionship. Pets staying with me won’t routinely be left alone for long stretches, and we also have a large fenced yard for plenty of outdoor time. I’m also available for drop-in visits depending on the location and requested time. I finish my workday in the early afternoon, so my afternoons and evenings are generally very flexible for drop-ins. Morning or daytime visits may also be possible depending on timing and distance—just send me a request and we can see if it works! In my home, I try to keep your pet’s routine as close to what they’re used to as possible. I work from home, so I’m available throughout the day for potty breaks, meals, playtime, attention and plenty of cuddles. We have a large fenced yard for supervised outdoor time, and my two Golden Retrievers, Aspen and Indy, are friendly and enjoy having canine companions. I can accommodate different comfort levels and personalities. If your dog enjoys being social, they can join Aspen and Indy for playtime and relaxation. If your pet is more comfortable having their own space or needs to be kept separate from other animals, I can accommodate that as well. My goal is for each pet to feel safe and comfortable rather than expecting every animal to interact. I’ll follow your instructions for feeding, medications, sleeping arrangements and any special routines or needs. I know being away from home can be stressful, so I want your pet to feel safe, comfortable and treated like part of the family while they’re here. For drop-in visits, I’ll follow your pet’s normal routine in their own home, including feeding and fresh water, potty breaks or litter box care, medications if needed, playtime and plenty of attention and affection. I’m also happy to simply provide companionship for pets who are shy or prefer interaction on their own terms. I’ll provide photos and updates during stays or visits so you can relax knowing how your pet is doing while you’re away.
“can’t say enough good things about Lori! she sent videos and pictures the whole time, gave me toy ideas that my dog loved and was all around awesome! Liza didn’t want to come home :) i’ll definitely be booking with her again!”
“Janet did an amazing job taking care of our dog. Annabelle was well cared for, and Janet sent us frequent pictures and updates on how she was doing. Would definitely let her take care of our girl anytime.”
“Abby is so amazing!!! My fur baby felt right at home with her. It's so great to know that there is somebody I can leave him with where he's happy and feels right at home. She even went above and beyond and brushed him too (He's not a dog that requires brushing because he sheds). She's so wonderful!!!”
“Madelyn was so sweet and nice, and Ruby had such a wonderful time! She sent updates throughout her stay and was very accommodating to Ruby’s needs! We will definitely be booking with her in the future!!”
“I’m so glad Vicki was able to watch our pup, Rose, while we went out of town for the weekend. I didn’t worry about Rose because I knew she was in good hands 💕”
“We had to leave town suddenly due to a death in our family and Suzanne agreed to take our Maggie at very short notice. Maggie was extremely well cared for and very comfortable with Suzanne and her family and their own furbabies. We received messages and pictures regularly which definitely eased our minds during such a difficult time. I couldn’t be happier that I have found Suzanne and will definitely be using her services again in the future.”
About: My flexible schedule allows me to provide personalized, dependable care, plenty of attention, playtime, and love, treating every pet like my own family. I also have a two year old shih tzu that i love as if my child Since I don’t work outside the home, I have a flexible daily schedule and plenty of time to give pets attention, exercise, playtime, and companionship. I can provide consistent care, follow their routines, and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and love I provide loving, attentive pet care in my home or my client’s home, following each pet’s normal routine for feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and cuddles. I keep their environment clean and safe, give them plenty of companionship, and make sure they feel comfortable and cared for while their owners are away.

This is the second time that I have booked with Samantha. I have two dogs one of which can be quite shy, but she loves staying with Samantha. During their stay, I get lots of updates on their eating, when they go out, and I get photos which is great. Both of the dogs seem excited to go to her house! She is the one who I will definitely use again in the future whenever I need somebody to watch my babies.

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.
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.
94% of sitters in Southaven can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this 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 Southaven 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 Southaven.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Southaven. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 94% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 94% 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.
You and your Southaven 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.
Adding another pup to the pack? Most sitters and walkers offer a reduced rate for additional dogs. You’ll find these exact rates listed under the "Services" tab on any sitter's profile. Since every dog is unique, final pricing may vary depending on the level of care required.
