Emma did an amazing job watching our little pup this week! While we were out of town she stopped in every day, fed, watered, and walked Brodie. She went above and beyond showing him love and affection and even bought supplies and doctored him up when he injured himself while home alone. 10/10, we will absolutely be using Emma every time. Thanks Emma!

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my hands-on experience working at a veterinary office, where I’ve gained valuable knowledge about pet health and behavior. I’m comfortable administering medications and providing special care for senior pets or those with medical needs. I also have experience training puppies, helping them learn basic commands and positive habits with patience and kindness. Above all, I’m passionate about animals and committed to giving each pet personalized attention, ensuring they feel safe, happy, and loved while their owners are away. Pet care is an important and enjoyable part of my daily and weekly routine. Whether it’s walking dogs, feeding cats, or spending quality time playing and comforting animals, I make sure to prioritize their needs consistently. Working at a vet office has taught me the importance of regular schedules, so I’m very organized with feeding times, medication administration, and exercise to keep pets happy and healthy. I genuinely love making pet care a regular, rewarding part of my life. When pets stay in my home, I create a warm and safe environment where they can feel comfortable and loved. I stick to their regular feeding and exercise schedules to keep their routine consistent and stress-free. I provide plenty of playtime and affection to help them feel happy and secure. I’m attentive to their individual needs, including any medication or special care, and I always monitor their health closely. My home becomes a cozy, caring space where pets can relax and enjoy their time while their owners are away.

About: I believe I’m an excellent pet sitter because animals have been a huge part of my life from the very beginning. Growing up on a farm taught me responsibility, patience, and how to care for animals of all kinds. I’ve personally bottle fed kittens, puppies, and baby goats, giving me hands on experience with pets that need extra attention and care. I also attended veterinary classes through LSU’s agricultural program, where I learned valuable knowledge about animal health, behavior, and proper care. Whether your pet needs playtime, cuddles, medication, or just a comforting presence, I’ll treat them like they’re part of my own family. I currently work in Healthcare at North Oaks Hospital. I take care of my pet daily, as I would yours once we figure out which days i’m need to care for your baby! Creating a safe and comfortable environment for every pet is my top priority. I make sure pets always have access to fresh water, a clean space, and plenty of attention while following their normal routines as closely as possible. I carefully monitor their behavior, keep potentially harmful items out of reach, and ensure all doors, gates, and leashes are secure. By providing a calm, loving atmosphere and paying close attention to each pet’s individual needs, I help them feel safe, happy, and stress free while their owners are away.

Chuck was wonderful! It was our first time using a dog walker since we got our puppy. Chuck volunteered to come and meet our dog prior to his first drop-in free of charge which was wonderful for the dog and his parents! :) We will be using him again in the future 100%!

Loralei did drop in visits 2 x day for 5 days for my 3 pups . Charlie is not particularly fond of people and I was a little nervous about how he’d react but by the end of the second day she had won him over and he followed her outside along with the other 2. She also fed my fish and put bird seed in my feeder every morning. She communicated concerns and reassured me all was well . I recommend her and I will use her again in the future !

About: I have been surrounded by animals my entire life and have years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all kinds. My father has owned and operated a dog training/boarding business for over 14 years, and I grew up helping him with the daily care and responsibilities that come with working with dogs. I currently work part time as a kennel technician at Hickory Small Animal Hospital in Ponchatoula, where I help care for pets staying in the boarding facility. This experience has made me comfortable caring for dogs with different personalities, routines, and individual needs. I also have extensive experience with horses and regularly help care for horses and assist with barn responsibilities for several owners. I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust with your pets. I strive to provide dependable, attentive, and loving care while making sure every animal feels safe and comfortable while their owner is away. I am a college student with a flexible schedule, which allows me to make pet care a priority. I also work part time, but I am able to plan my schedule around bookings and make sure each pet gets the time, attention, and care they deserve. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I have a fenced in yard where dogs can safely play and get plenty of outside time. I also have a friendly dog of my own who can provide some company and playtime! I am always happy to follow each owner’s preferences and routines to make sure their pet feels as comfortable and at home as possible.

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover who’s excited to start pet sitting. While I’m new to Rover, I’ve been around animals for as long as I can remember. I currently have a cat of my own, and I grew up with a family dog who was a beloved part of our family until he passed away from old age. My grandmother also had several dogs while I was growing up, so I’ve spent years around dogs of all different personalities and energy levels. I understand how important it is to know your pet is safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I’ll treat every pet with the same patience, affection, and care that I give my own. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, or just relaxing with lots of cuddles, I’ll make sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I’m dependable, attentive, and always happy to follow your pet’s routine and any special instructions to help them feel right at home. Pet care is already a part of my everyday routine. I care for my own cat daily by making sure she has fresh food and water, a clean litter box, and plenty of attention and playtime. I’m used to planning my day around an animal’s needs and understand the importance of keeping pets on their regular routine. If I’m caring for your pet, I’ll make sure they get the time, attention, exercise, and affection they deserve while keeping you updated so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I always aim to keep pets as comfortable as possible by following their normal routine. In a client’s home, I’ll follow your instructions for feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, medications (if needed), and bedtime routines so your pet experiences as little disruption as possible. I’ll also make sure they get plenty of love, attention, and exercise based on their personality and energy level. I respect your home by keeping it clean and secure, and I’m happy to send regular photo and text updates so you know your pet is safe and happy while you’re away. If caring for a pet in my own home, I provide a clean, calm, and pet-friendly environment with plenty of attention, playtime, fresh water, and a consistent routine to help them feel comfortable and at ease.

Ellie did such an amazing job caring for our babies while we were away including outstanding communication with messages and pictures each time she visited —it meant so much!! This was our first time having someone care for them at home and she made us feel very comfortable and it was just an overall great experience. We will definitely be calling on Ellie again in the future.

About: Hi! I’m Maddie, a lifelong animal lover and proud Golden Retriever mom. I’ve raised my Golden giving me hands-on experience with daily care, training, exercise, and lots of love. I understand that pets are family, and I’ll treat yours like my own by providing reliable, attentive care, plenty of affection, and updates while you’re away. I can’t wait to meet your furry family members! 🐾❤️ I am currently on break from Respiratory Therapy school, and I have plenty of free time during the week. My golden is very active so I’m always prioritizing getting home to play with my baby! I know how hard it is to find help being busy, so while I have time I want to be that person for others! I have a fenced in backyard with a very friendly Golden who would love play dates! If you would rather me come to your house, I love taking long walks and am very used to playing with toys in the house to try to burn all of that energy! I will give your pup the same attention I give my own❤️

About: Animals have always been the center of my world, and I truly can’t imagine life without them. Over the years, I’ve had the chance to care for just about every kind of pet, from bouncy puppies and cuddly kittens to gentle seniors who just need a little extra patience and love. I also have experience with training and even dog showing, which taught me the importance of consistency, communication, and building trust with every animal. More than anything, I believe every pet deserves kindness, attention, and to feel like part of the family, so when they’re with me, that’s exactly what they’ll get. I am currently working part time and have some extra time to offer my services that i haven’t been able to recently. I only work a few hours mid day so i can take on just about any animals! My pets are already a huge part of my daily life from feeding, training, walking, enrichment etc. I can offer personalized care for each pets specific enrichment needs! I have a fenced in yard with safety latches for as much safety as possible. I live in a safe calm neighborhood with amazing neighbors.My whole house is designed around animals. We have a specific dog room and a cat room with safety gates etc to keep pets separate if needed and we have multiple wire kennels. We also have car kennels for safe traveling to any activities your pets would like!

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Pet Sitting easy. As long as your dates and pet profiles are correct, the price you see before you book is the same price you pay for Pet Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of August 2026, there are 314 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Tickfaw. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Tickfaw stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

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 Tickfaw. On Rover:

  • 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 95% 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 short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.

Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement sitter.
