About: I'm a country girl. I love all animals. I was raised on a farm. Animal caretaking is my specialty. I also attended school for assistant laboratory animal technology I'm currently working from home. I spend my time caring for my own pets. I also pet sit for friends and family members when they are out of town. I have a fenced backyard. I also have a fence inside of that fence. Which will separate bigger dogs from the smaller ones. I have a closed in patio for puppies or pets that just want to be left alone.
About: Hi there! I’m a fun-loving, dependable dog walker who truly believes every dog deserves plenty of love, attention, and adventure. Whether your pup is full of energy and ready to explore or prefers a leisurely stroll with lots of sniff breaks, I’m happy to meet them wherever they’re at! I love getting outside, staying active, and making sure every walk feels like the highlight of your dog’s day. You can expect plenty of belly rubs, playtime, positive attention, and of course, lots of happy tail wags! 🐶❤️ Your pet’s safety and happiness are always my top priorities. I’ll treat your furry family member with the same care and patience I’d want for my own. I’m also happy to send updates and photos along the way, so you can relax knowing your pup is having a great time. I’m currently waiting to start my job but it takes a large amount of paper work and have plenty of time for the next month. Once I start working I’ll be able to also do it on my day off. My yard is large and I have a friendly dog who loves to play. My neighborhood is also very shaded so dogs are able to take nice shaded walks.

About: As early as 8 years old, I’ve had hands-on experience caring for cats and dogs. From taking in and caring for outside cats to helping raise and care for puppies through their senior years, animals have always been a meaningful part of my life. I’ve helped with the everyday care that keeps pets happy and healthy, including walking, potty breaks, bathing, flea care, giving medications, feeding, and keeping up with their routines. One of my favorite parts of caring for animals is building trust with them. I naturally speak to animals gently and patiently, especially when guiding, correcting, or rewarding them. I believe pets respond best when they feel safe, understood, and respected. Whether your angel is energetic and playful, shy and cautious, elderly and needing extra patience, or simply attached to their normal routine, I want them to feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away. I genuinely enjoy the maintenance and little details of pet care—not just the fun parts. I’m happy to keep up with potty breaks, walks, feeding schedules, medications, baths, cleanliness, and whatever routine helps your pet feel at home. My goal is for your pet to receive the same patience, affection, and gentle guidance I would want for my own. 🐾❤️ Your angel is in good hands with me! It’s daily As someone who loves to take care of animals and give out affection, I see pet sitting more as a bond, then just simply a job They are provided with the same care that they will receive from their loving parents, think of it more of spending the night with their favorite aunt!

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.

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.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Southaven choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.

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.
