“Brittnye was great with my cats. She came daily to feed them and clean their litter box. She also sent daily notes and photos. We had a last minute change of plans and needed to leave town earlier than scheduled. Brittnye was very accommodating and was able to take on a few extra days for us.”

About: I’m a kind hearted soul, always looking for ways to keep a pup happy. I pay attention to detail and I’m very familiar with taking care of dogs, especially ones that like to have fun. Back home, I have a 5 year old golden doodle that I’ve had since a puppy. I worked with her to potty train, and with basic training as well. I’m currently at home most of the day. I have full availability right now, and flexible availability during the weekends. Please reach out. Thank you! I am one of the sole caretakers of my dog at home. I take her out for potty breakers, feed her, and play with her.
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.

“Jenna cares for my kitties as if they were her own. She is the ultimate professional. Communicative, dependable and responsible. I highly recommend her to look after your pets when you are in need of a sitter.”

“McKenzie was fantastic! She took great care of my pets, kept me updated, and gave me peace of mind while I was away. She’s reliable, caring, and clearly loves animals. I highly recommend her and will definitely book with her again!”


About: Hi! I’m Rachel, and I know pets are family. Whether your dog needs an energetic walk, your cat needs a quiet check-in, or you’re away for a few days, I’ll care for your pet with the same patience, kindness, and attention I’d want for my own. I’m dependable, detail-oriented, and understand that every pet has a unique personality. Some love long walks and playtime, while others just want a calm companion and lots of affection. I’ll take the time to get to know your pet’s routine so they feel comfortable and secure. I believe communication is important, so you’ll receive regular updates, photos, and messages while you’re away. My goal is for you to have peace of mind knowing your pet is safe, happy, and well cared for. Pet care fits naturally into my routine as an active mom and part-time student. I’m organized, dependable, and enjoy staying active, making daily walks and drop-in visits a great fit. I understand the importance of following routines, providing compassionate care, and keeping owners updated so they can feel confident their pets are safe, happy, and well cared for. I have two dogs and a cat of my own, so caring for pets is part of my everyday life. The backyard is fenced in and my cat can hide away in a separate room from curious pets. Whether in my home or yours, I follow each pet’s routine for feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and plenty of love and attention. I prioritize safety, keep their environment clean, and provide regular updates with photos so you can feel confident your pet is in caring hands.
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.

“Emily was an instant favorite with my two dogs. She's patient with my young energetic dog and kind to my little senior. She's always prompt and sends the cutest pictures and updates. Fully trusted having her in my home and can't wait to have ger again!”

“Jenny was amazing and so accommodating!! I really appreciated all her pictures and I could tell my dog was so happy when I got home, despite being gone all day. I will definitely book her again!”

“I’m beyond impressed with Vivian! Ten stars for communication — she always responded promptly and thoughtfully to my questions, and sent very helpful report backs with photos of my cat. All my nervousness around leaving my cat behind while out of town dissipated knowing she was in trusted hands. Highly recommend.”
About: Back in 2014, I attended Tennessee College of Applied Technology, graduated early with my diploma in Assistance Animal Laboratory Technicians, also with a certification in Purina Mills Animal Care Course. I have done an internship with North Shelby Animal Shelter as well as Bartlett Animal Shelte, where I took stray dogs/ abandoned out for walks and to play. Most of the dogs I encountered with at the shelter were sweet and loving dogs that just need a friend and time to spend with a person. I treated those dogs as my own. I have also intern at University of Tennessee Health and Science Center taking care of rodents, pigs, and other animals. I am someone who is mature, candid and who has integrity. Everyday I work to improve myself and my skills which is part of maturing and becoming better at what I do, this is why I want clients to choose me. I will treat your pets as my own pets. I will love and care for them, as if they where my own.

“Ashley is not only an excellent pet-sitter, we think she is also an excellent dog-whisperer! Our drama queen dog decided she was so sad that we left her, she would not leave our bed for dinner or for a potty break. But Ashley finally managed to coax her from the bed (with the assistance of a treat or three) and they’ve become fast friends! Ashley even called us to keep us up to date on the progress. We were so happy with the care she gave our dog AND our cat, who usually never shows herself to other sitters. The cat actually hung out with Ashley for a few minutes, which is amazing! We give Ashley 5 stars!!!!”

“Samantha, was amazing as always, our cat was sad and grumpy cause we left on a work trip but sam still made sure he had his treats and cat nip to make him happy while we were away. Thank you as always Sam.”

“We cant be happier with Lyndsay. She is very patient with our fur babies even though they are a little barky. :) They are warming to her every session. She keeps us informed and is very pleasant to deal with.”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in Southaven is $11 per visit as of October 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 October 2026, there are 697 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Southaven. 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 .
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 , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

- 92% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 95% can help with daily exercise

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 .
sitters on Rover set their own , 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.
