“Dropped my large dog and cat off with Jessica. They loved her and her family. I got daily updates and photos of my pets and was very satisfied with care and communication. Will definitely book in the future.”

“We left our two dogs with Brooke for the first time over the Christmas holiday. We were a little anxious, as this is a private home versus a professional boarding facility, which is what we used back in our previous state of residence. It took our dogs several days to adapt, and our female dog had some anxiety and separation issues, but Brooke kept us posted with texts, pictures and videos. She was able to give “Millie” the extra time and attention she needed and kept her indoors where she felt more comfortable. It is obvious that Brooke is dedicated to the dogs she cares for and to the families who love them.”


“Linda took such great care of Niner while we were out of town! We felt completely at ease knowing he was in good hands. Her communication was excellent, and we loved getting all the picture updates. We would absolutely trust her to watch Niner again!”

“Absolutely the Best! If we ever travel back to Rapid City, they are my first choice, they took wonderful care of our 2 furry reals! They went up and above, if I could give them 10 stars I would! They will take outstanding care of your furry friends! They have activities planned, treats, and lots of photos! Absolutely stop looking , This should be your choice!”

“She kept me super updated on my pup, so many cute pics and she really treated him like her own! This was my first time boarding him and he had a wonderful time and she kept him good and busy 🫶”

“Mary provided top-tier care for my cat at her home! She made the entire process seamless with incredibly easy drop-off and pick-up routines.While I was away, she was highly responsive to messages and regularly sent wonderful picture updates, which gave me total peace of mind. It was clear my pet felt safe, comfortable, and completely at home with her. I highly recommend Mary and will definitely book her again!”

“Ali is an amazing pet sitter who puts you at ease while you are out-of-town knowing your fur baby is well cared for. She sends pictures and videos daily. Our dog is elderly and needs a place where she can relax and rest. We can tell she enjoyed her time being part of Ali's pack. Normally we are hesitant to leave our dog with a sitter because she needs constant human contact but we wouldn't hesitate to leave her with Ali again. A++++”
“Brittany gave AMAZING care for our two pugs! Between the daily pictures and very happy demeanor of the dogs when they picked them up, it was obvious that they were well cared for!”

“Hector has been an amazing host for Wilson, my mini Schnauzer, for the second time. I feel confident leaving Wilson with Hector and his sister, knowing they take good care of him. Hector keeps me updated with photos and videos during Wilson’s stay, and he’s always quick to respond to any messages. Will definitely keep asking them to host Wilson again in the future.”


“Tami took great care of my 3 pets, some of whom are challenging. She went above and beyond to offer kindness and accommodations for our circumstances and needs. Highly recommend her!”

About: My daughter Trenna and I grew up with dogs and cats and we love all their different personalities and they bring so much joy to our lives. When you get a dog it’s a commitment. They are our kids. I am looking for a partime job. What a fun opportunity to do something I love. I have three dogs/kids myself. I can’t wait to get home from work and. see their wiggly tails. They don’t care what kind of day you just had, they just want to love on you. When I am home they are wherever I am. During the day they are in their kennels. Two of them are not even 2 yet so they like their toys.
About: I have grown up with dogs, owned (and currently own) a dog, and absolutely LOVE them as my own. We have an enclosed dog run with a dog door onsite. They are spoiled beyond measure and treated better than a family member. I have a flexible work schedule which allows me to spend quality time with your pet! I am available on weekends and holidays, as well as weekdays depending on notice. I have a fenced in dog run with a dog door. I can easily crate your dog if that is helpful to his/her routine. I do have 2 dogs onsite but can keep them separate if needed. We live on 3 acres and walk our dogs every day! They are Family!
“Five stars! Jaiden was absolutely lovely helping me understand the Rover process. My cat came back relaxed and happy! She was an absolute lifesaver in this heat. Would 100000% book again and highly recommend.”

“This was my first time using Rover and I am so happy that I found the app. Nathan was fantastic! He came several days before our booking date to meet our three cats, Lucky, Squeak, and Caramel. Our cats took to him right away, so I knew he was going to be our sitter. I enjoyed the daily pictures of our cats and they looked so content. Nathan will definitely be our sitter the next time we need one. Thanks Nathan for a fantastic job!!! Jo Anne Pullins”

“Raven is the most conscientious Rover we have had. She is great at watching out for our cat’s health and she is also extremely observant and goes above and beyond for our cats. She is our go to!”


“Cecilia took such amazing care of our cat! She was very responsive and sent lots of pictures while we were away! Would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a great sitter!”


“We always greatly appreciate the care and attention given to our cats while we’re away. We have peace of mind thanks to the detailed updates, photos, and great communication. Thank you for keeping things clean too!”

“First time trying rover and was skeptical at first but it didn’t disappoint me. Vannessa is very reliable, friendly, and very communicative! Will definitely rebook again :)”


“Monet is amazing and my favorite cat sitter. She is very understanding, trustworthy, and dependable. I will always request her to sit for my cats. My mom also met her the first time she came to my house and adores her. Highly recommend Monet for all your pet sitting needs!!”

“If I could give a million stars I would. Stephanie was absolutely heaven sent. David is extremely guarded however by the time it was time for me to come home Stephanie had him eating out of her hand literally. Trinity is a diva that was catered to. I loved the pictures and updates. If you ever need a sitter pick STEPHANIE!!”


“Arianne was great with our boy Carbon. It was his first time spending a night without me or my husband present since we got him 3+ years ago, and she made sure that it wasn't a bad experience for him. We definitely went overboard when it came to providing information about him, but Arianne was able to handle it all without issue. 6/5.”


“Amanda always does an amazing job of checking in on my cat and keeping an open line of communication. Amanda is very flexible and is always just a call or text away. As always, I would recommend Amanda!”

“Olivia was our first Rover dog-sitter and I hope we can reserve her services again in the future because she does a superb job. From the moment we met her I felt comfortable having her in my home. My dogs - who normally bark at a fly on the wall - didn’t bark at her the first time they met her, nor a single time after that; she has a very sweet and peaceful demeanor about her which makes everyone feel at ease. She did all of our drop-ins on time and thoroughly and sent sweet pictures, videos, and notes to keep us updated on how the dogs were doing. I can’t thank her enough for how helpful she was. We will definitely hire Olivia again!”
“Gabbie was gracious when we learned our flight home would likely be canceled due to a blizzard. She took my thoughts on what to do for feeding incase she couldn’t travel due to weather later in the day. We got a River card every day. Our friendly cat loved her! Our house key was left as discussed. The cats were happy and the house was as we left it.”


“Mary was wonderful. You can tell she loves animals and taking care of them. She was very sweet and attentive with our kitten, sending us updates and pictures regularly of them having fun. I would recommend her to anyone looking for a cat sitter!”

“I’ve known Linda for several years, and implicitly trusted her with my German Shepard. I was in a pickle, was kind of last minute preparation for me ( I usually have everything written down, food bags prepared and labeled…) to leave home and have her watch my dog. He needs medication with his diet or he can’t digest what he eats, which was no issue with her. She sends pics and videos, and great communication, to help the ease of being separated from my best buddy and travel partner. She ‘speaks’ dog, reads and knows their energy. The facility is a dog’s haven and resort! I am sure my dog will love going back for a ‘dogcation’!”

“Did amazing with our girl. She sent pictures throughout time and stayed in contact with us. Would definitely recommend Brittany to watch your fur babies. Will use her again when we come back to the area.”

“My dog liked Jessica right away. He is a nervous dog, but was not nervous around her and he was happy when we picked him up. Jessica was very helpful and didn't mind introducing my dog to her cats and seeing how he was with them. Great experience!”

“Alena was great! This was my first time using Rover and it was an excellent first experience. I hope all of my future experiences are as good as this one in terms of communication and convenience. Highly recommend! Thanks!!”

About: 18 Acres of Fun! Besides working in the veterinary field as a certified veterinary assistant, I’ve had dogs and cats since I started walking back home in Puerto Rico. I was always rescuing all kinds of critters in the streets and finding them new homes. Big animals, small animals, shy animals, hyper animals, you name it! I've assisted anywhere from births to surgery, administered medications, vitals etc. Your furry friends are in good hands with me. I live on a ranch, so they’ll have plenty of space to run and play around while I also love taking them with me to explore the Black Hills trails. I’m currently dedicating my time to farm life while I wait for school to start in the fall, so I have all my time available to dedicate myself to your furry friends. I have a big farm of 18 acres with plenty of space to exercise your pups, also have enclosed areas available to offer them a safe and comfortable environment during their stay. But like I mentioned, I have all my time available so your furry friends will receive all my attention all day ❤️ It’s the perfect environment to keep them happy and stimulated while you’re gone. -Will do walks/hikes -Provide pictures/videos -Plenty of kisses & cuddles -Beeping color available if requested
“Best Rover sitter we’ve had! Tara kept in touch the whole time and sent pictures so we didn’t have to miss our pooch so much. We could tell our pup had been well cared for and comfortable when we picked her up. Thank you Tara, you’re the best!”

“Athena was fantastic. She was easy going, a great communicator, and clearly loves dogs. She took Max to the park, played fetch with him, taught him tricks, and made sure he played with his toys. She was also very flexible and I would absolutely recommend.”

“Shelby was awesome! I had to be out of town on short notice and she came in clutch to help out with Boone. I couldn’t ask for anything better and I know Boone had a blast with her from the pictures I saw!”

“Ronda is amazing with our dog Mabel. It is also comforting knowing that Ronda's back ground and profession as a Vet tech help my wife and I make a decision to hire Ronda.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs my whole life. I currently have four dogs; I have two female German shepherds, a male golden doodle, and a female black Labrador retriever. I have house sat a couple of times with the dogs I own, but I have also house sat for two Rhodesian ridgebacks and two cats regularly. When I am away at school, I volunteer at the Heartland Humane Society in Yankton SD once a week. I play, walk, and enrich all the different dogs in that facility. I currently work part time, usually in the evenings; I have plenty of time to hang out with your pups! I would be able to stop by for potty breaks frequently or go on walks. If overnight services are needed, I would be able to stay overnight and take care of your animal’s needs. I love animals. When I dog or house sit, I hang out with the animals as much as possible. I am vigilant and make sure that they are being properly cared for.
About: I have had dogs in my life as long as I can remember. And I love every dog that I see. And all deserve the best care. I have recently moved to the area, so I have all the time to watch pets that need to be taken care of. Walking or overnights I am able to come to your house and walk/love on them and or stay overnight. Which ever is best for you and your pets.
About: I currently have 2 dogs of my own who are very friendly and playful. I can work with high energy or calmer/older dogs always taking the time to get to know them during our visits. I work full time but enjoy staying busy on my days off. Requests can be made for days I work as long as it is far enough out. We do not have a fence but do have tie outs at our own home. Willing to take your pet to any park of your choosing of course. I also have an XL wire crate if they need that at any time during a stay, otherwise they are free to roam.

About: I have experience caring for pets of all sizes, from 10-pound lap dogs to 100+ pound gentle giants. I’m comfortable caring for dogs, cats, and just about any furry friend in between! Since I work from home, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to check in on your pets multiple times throughout the day, ensuring they receive plenty of attention, potty breaks, exercise, and love. As a fellow dog mom, I know how stressful it can be to leave your fur baby behind. That’s why I treat every pet as if they were my own. Whether it’s snuggles on the couch, daily walks, playtime, or simply keeping them company, my goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, happy, and loved while you’re away—so you can enjoy your time with complete peace of mind. I have a flexible work-from-home schedule that allows me to prioritize your pet’s needs throughout the day. Whether it’s a morning walk, midday potty break, evening snuggles, playtime, or simply checking in for some extra love and attention, I’m available to visit your pet several times a day. My goal is to keep their routine as normal as possible so they feel happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. Being away from their owner can be stressful for pets, which is why I bring the care to them in the comfort of their own home. I do my best to keep their routine as consistent as possible, providing familiar schedules, plenty of love, patience, and personalized attention to help them feel safe and at ease. I’d also be happy to schedule a meet-and-greet before your trip so your pet has the chance to get to know me, helping everyone feel more comfortable before the stay.
“Matilyn did a great job walking our dogs! She also let me that our female dog was showing signs of a UTI. Took her to the Vet the next day and sure enough, our dog did have a UTI! We would definitely rebook Matilyn!”

“Nathan is phenomenal with Billy!! He not only takes him for walks but he helps him learn tricks and shows Billy all the attention he so craves. He is a puppy so patience is necessary and Nathan definitely has that. Nathan is great with communication as well, always letting me know how Billy is doing and if he sees that maybe something is off with Billy health wise. I definitely trust him to take great care of my pup. :)”

About: Experience. I am active and reliable! Looking to build client relationships and trust! New to Memphis, but not Tennessee. I am from Nashville, and just moved back to Tennessee after living in Laramie, Wyoming. I have a full time job and live a full life here. I hold a degree in Child and Family Studies with a minor in ASL from the University of Tennessee. I grew up with and around dogs all my life, specifically German Shepherds and Akita's. I do not know everything about dogs, but I want to know everything about your dog. Working with Rover is just a fun way to make new furry friends and get to know more people in Memphis. Being there for your pet while you're week got unexpectedly busy or you're away overnight provides relief for you and your furry family. Schedule. Currently working full time, but can be flexible for your pet. I can use my lunch break for walks and medications. I feel like this is something that is relative to each pets schedule and owners request. Safety and Trust. Your dog is family and will be treated as such. Unless I have specific directions or know that your pet is allowed to eat or do something not listed, it does not happen. We have fun while following the rules. Unless it is an EMERGENCY, your pet does not get in the car with me. I trust myself, I do not trust other drivers.
About: I have house sat multiple times for the same families, which included care for both dogs and cats. One family had ill animals that needed special pills and diets, while the other had a puppy who needed walks to remain calm. I follow the instructions of the owners as best I can, and attempt to give the animals as much love and attention as I can offer. I was paid professionally to care for animals when I worked as a personal assistant for three years. I know that it can be hard work to care for animals, but I am willing to put forth the effort for them. I have had and cared for them all of my life, and I look forward to caring for yours! I work full time, but can be flexible with my lunch break. At the least, I could drop in three times a day or stay with them in the evenings. On weekends, if I am petsitting or dropping in, your pup or cat would be my highest priority and my schedule is much more flexible. Petsitting: When staying at a client's home, I keep the area tidy and try to spend more time with the pet than not. When I am not at work, I would be able to walk, play, and cuddle to their heart's content. If I have social plans, I adjust them to the pets needs so they are not left alone for too long. Dogwalking & Drop-Ins: After walking/playing with/checking on your pup, I would ensure they have adequate water and a treat, then give them some time to rest. Once I've ensured they've cooled down, I would let them out once more before topping off their water and leaving them for a nap. During the work weeks, walks would be at noon and after 5pm, but weekends are flexible.

About: Hello, my name is Sheldon and I grew up in The Black Hills, South Dakota, with my dog and best friend, Duke! We had the best of times adventuring through the ponderosa pines of the forests, scaling its mountains, hiking it’s trails, kayaking it’s waters, playing, swimming, EATING and just having fun as brothers do! Moving away.. far away to attended college, I haven’t seen Duke in over three years. I miss those times and would love to make new relationships with your pups! I understand that pets are much more than just animals, they are family and should be treated as such, with patience and love! I have experience walking, sitting and boarding dogs with some knowledge on training! Im very excited to meet your puppers! During the winter season I am available at all times. My primary work is seasonal and takes place in the summer as a fisherman in Alaska. When I care for pets at a clients home I treat the pet as if it were my own family and I treat the house as it were my own home. In other words, I practice respect.
About: I have lived in households with pets my entire life as well as taken care of countless peoples animals while they have been busy or out of town. I go to the dog park just about every day and am well versed in how animals interact with each other and how to make them as comfortable as possible. I am back in the Black Hills until September when school starts up again for me! I am very free and would love to watch some pets of all kinds. I have my own dog and I can have them hang out or she can stay at home just as easily!! I care for all pets in my home and in others the same way, with love and respect. It’s incredibly important for the animals you are dealing with to trust you and I work to ensure that trust at all times.
