“Mark took excellent care of my pup. She got along very well with his 2 dogs. He made sure I was comfortable before leaving my dog with him overnight. Thanks again Mark! Highly recommend”

“Caroline and Alena are fantastic - great communicators, they sent pics and videos, and they seemed to truly enjoy my pup, which just felt good. Everything went smoothly from start to finish, and I highly recommend them! My gratitude to you both!”

“Brooke was absolutely superb. She is clearly a professional at what she does and she made our dog (and us!) feel extremely comfortable and safe. We boarded our dog for two days and the experience could not have been better. We are grateful for her care and cannot recommend her highly enough!!”

“Melissa was amazing, and I'm thrilled we found her to watch our dog. She was incredibly easy to work with, she was a great communicator, and mostly importantly she took fantastic care of our dog. I will not hesitate to connect with her again next time we need a dog sitter. Highly recommended!”


“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!”

“I had a last minute emergency and needed my kitten watched for the day. She gladly took him in to her house, and “babysat” him. Me and my little Paquito appreciate her!”

“Brittany took very good care of our bernedoodle puppy while we were on vacation for a week. She kept us updated with pictures and the occasional text to let us know what he was up to. It made it feel like he was on vacation while in her care. She was very easy to coordinate with. Would definitely recommend her to friends and family.”

“I recently left my 2 yo dog, Wilson, in the care of Hector and his sister for 10 days while I was traveling abroad, and I couldn't be happier with the experience! Hector provided good care, love and attention. I received regular updates and pictures, which gave me peace of mind while I was overseas. It's clear that Hector and his family are true dog lovers, and I highly recommend his service to anyone in need of a reliable and caring host. 5 stars ⭐️!”

“Gianna is AMAZING - we worry about leaving our “baby”, and she was so reassuring and sent plenty of updates and pictures. She has a beautiful property for dogs to run and play. We never worried about our guy at all. She will definitely be our go-to person from now on!!”

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 grew up on a farm so as long as I can remember I was always loving and taking care of animals! Dogs, cats, horses! & all! I will love your fur babies just as much as mine! I am a stay at home dog mom!! Im such a big animal lover ever since I was a little girl that’s all I can remember is wanting to go outside and playing with the animals! I have two friendly pups that LOVE to play! I take my dogs on a walk two times a day! And make sure they get enough attention and playtime that they want! The pups will never be out of my sight! And I assure you they are safe and in a positive environment in my home! ☺️
About: I have extensive experience in animal care, having grown up rehabilitating, caring for, and training a wide range of animals, from small squirrels to large horses. With several years of experience as a veterinary technician, I am deeply passionate about animal welfare. Over the past several years, I have also provided pet sitting services, caring for both young and elderly animals, as well as those with special needs. I am highly comfortable and confident in administering medications as needed as well as adhering to any specific dietary guidelines. I am a stay at home mom to my 9 month old son, so I have lots of time in my schedule to keep a close eye on your pet and give them as much attention as possible while you’re away! I have a fenced back yard which is perfect for playtime or just to hang out and get some sun! My own dog loves to run around up and down the hill in our yard! I also have a large dog kennel in case that is at all needed.
“As a repeat client, I highly recommend Susan. I'm totally at ease leaving Chili in Susan's care. Chili was excited when we arrived at Susan's house. Off Chili went for a walk with Susan. It was great to see Chili in the photos and video Susan sent me during the stay. I'll definitely book another stay for Chili.”

“We loved having Margaret stay at our home and watch our Westie. She is exceptionally professional, punctual, friendly, caring and an all-around awesome person. We greatly appreciated her clear communication. Margaret texted us regular updates and photos. She took great care of our pup, following all of our intricate care instructions. She also kept the house in perfect shape. A++ experience”

“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.”

“Kairi was so quick with responding and very compassionate. She took great care of my girl for a very last minute need. I would recommend her to anyone and will book again if the need arises. Thank you!!”

“Ronda was a caring and thoughtful new friend for our kitty. Our cat was well looked after, clearly healthy and happy upon our return and Ronda's visits gave us great peace of mind. Definitely appreciated the daily photos!”


“Nathan was very nice and always provided photo updates of our bunny, Mr. Pickles. I could tell that he played with him and he always wrote little status updates after the visit to tell me about the visit. He seemed excited to gain trust with our bunny and ended up being able to give him some love (bunny is very nervous around new people)”

“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.”


“Really appreciate Joslin's help with Arthur. He can sometimes get separation anxiety and shed a lot after a trip, but he didn't have that at all. She was also flexible with some of his feeding issues. 10/10 would recommend!”


“Fantastic! Nicole cared for our cat, fish, spider, and plants while we went out of town this summer. She did a fantastic job with everyone! She sent pictures and kept us up to date on the household. We will definitely use her whenever we travel! Thank you Nicole”

“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!!”

About: With 15 years of pet care experience, I've built a reputation as the sitter friends and family turn to when they need someone they can truly trust. Growing up surrounded by dogs and cats gave me an intuitive understanding of pet behavior, and over the years I've cared for countless breeds - from gentle giants to tiny lap dogs, anxious rescues to energetic puppies. What makes me different is my versatility and adaptability. I'm equally comfortable managing multi-dog households, caring for dogs and cats simultaneously, and adjusting to each pet's unique personality and needs. Whether you have a senior dog requiring gentle, patient care or a high-energy breed that needs extra playtime, I know how to read their cues and provide exactly what they need to feel safe and loved. My experience with diverse breeds and household dynamics means I can handle whatever curveballs your pets might throw - from managing pack dynamics to understanding breed-specific behaviors. I take pride in maintaining each pet's individual routine while ensuring harmony in multi-pet homes. You'll receive regular updates and photos throughout my visits, so you can relax knowing your furry family members are not just being watched, but truly cared for by someone who understands that every pet is someone's beloved companion. I have a flexible weekend schedule that allows me to prioritize your pet's needs. Having recently moved to western South Dakota, I'm excited to build lasting relationships with local pet owners and become a trusted part of this community. My open availability means I can easily accommodate various scheduling needs - whether you need early morning walks, midday check-ins, overnight stays, or last-minute care. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, so pet sitting never feels like work to me. It's actually the highlight of my day! I'm happy to work around your pet's established routine and can be flexible with timing to ensure they receive consistent, reliable care. Whether your pet thrives on a strict schedule or is more go-with-the-flow, I'll adapt to what works best for them and your family. I believe the key to excellent pet care is maintaining consistency with your pet's established routine and household rules. When caring for pets in your home, I take detailed notes about their daily schedule, feeding times, favorite spots, and any house rules—whether that means staying off certain furniture or having free rein of the couch. Your pet's comfort stems from familiarity, so I ensure that nothing changes from their normal routine. I provide the same level of attentive care - regular exercise, plenty of affection, and constant supervision. I also maintain open communication throughout, sending updates and photos so you can see how well your pet is settling in and enjoying their time with me.

“Jetaime is a wonderful and dependable sitter. I have two cats and Jetaime took good care of them. High regards and the best recommendation! I will be working with Jetaime in the future.”

“The best cat sitter! She texted us updates and photos of him, made sure he was well taken care of! She’s amazing, on time! Definitely is our #1 person we would trust with our cat.”

About: I grew up around a variety of animals and had three cats during my childhood. Two passed away from old age, and one is still living with my mother, he’s very loved and well cared for. I’m comfortable with daily cat care tasks like litter box cleaning, feeding routines, and spending quiet time helping cats feel safe and relaxed. I also volunteered with the Humane Society of the Black Hills, where I gained experience administering medications to cats. As a nursing student, I’m attentive to details, follow instructions carefully, and feel confident supporting pets who need extra care.

“Amanda was very communicative throughout the entire process and did an incredible job checking in on my cat. Would 100% recommend Amanda and will definitely be using her services again in the future!”

About: I currently work at Safe Haven Pet Resort, which means I work with animals almost everyday and I have for 3 years now! I have learned now how to do some training and to be able to read a dogs body language. Being that I do work at Safe Haven, pet care has become a huge part of my life! Working with animals is what I love to do and I wouldn’t have it any other way! I have 2 pups of my own so when I am watching your pets they can also have play buddies! My dogs are very friendly and love to make new friends!

About: I have been a dog owner/lover for the past 10 years. My experience extends to small dogs, large dogs, and reactive dogs. My property is 7 acre of quiet farm land in Hermosa. I have 2 dogs myself and they are very friendly and playful with other dogs. There would also be the option to keep our dogs separate if your baby is not comfortable with cohabitation. 1 acre fenced in yard as well as someone home at all times to let your baby out. I work in town on the weekdays but my partner works remotely meaning someone would be home at all times to let out the dogs. We have a 1acre fenced in yard the dogs can hang out in as well as plenty of space in the house. Dogs would be free to hang out in the house with no real restrictions unless otherwise stated by the owner.
“Felt very comfortable leaving our dog Payton with our sitter. It felt like a vacation for her while we went about having a human vacation. Mark was kind and professional! He was communicative and his place was awesome for our puppy.”

“Amazing person with lots of love for our fur-baby Peanut. Received many pictures & little notes plus a few videos of her playing - running ❤️ Our Peanut always looked happy! She received treats & lots of toys - playtime.. I was even told she wants a "octopus" was her favorite toy while there 😁 Nothing but good to say .. Highly recommend 👍 Thanks Alena & Caroline”

“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!”

“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.”

“Janae was great! Our puppy Pan loved to play with her puppy and even out older girl Lyra had fun. Lyra LOVED Janae's husband right from the start and she normally takes a while to warm up to strangers. Would use her again if we were in town.”


“Wonderful couple, agreed to watch my girl last minute. My dog typically has separation anxiety and Linda did a wonderful job making sure she was happy and well cared for.”

“We were so lucky to find Margaret for a last-minute daycare need while visiting the area. All the local boarding places were full, and we truly lucked out finding her. It was our first time using Rover, and she made us feel completely at ease from the beginning. Zoe had never stayed at a sitter’s home before, but Margaret made the drop-off easy and sent tons of photos throughout the day to keep us updated. If you’re visiting and need someone you can trust, Margaret is fantastic.”

“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!”

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

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: I grew up with dogs, and my husband and I currently have 2 German Shepherds, one with special needs (which is why I only do walks or drop-ins, and I can't board or do overnights). I am unemployed by choice, with lots of free time to take care of your kids.. uh, I mean furbabies. I have trained several GSDs using positive reinforcement, and I know firsthand that an exercised dog makes for a happy home! I know how to give oral medication, and I have experience with dogs who suffer anxiety. Until recently I have always had a cat, and I absolutely love them. Each one is unique, and they crack me up! I am available all day most days, prefer to work within the traditional 8-5pm but will consider making exceptions. Let me snuggle your kitty or walk your pup, take them to the dog park or just exercise in your yard! I am retired, so I have lots of time to walk your pup or play with your kitty! My schedule is very flexible and I can usually accommodate a short notice request. I have 2 GSDs, and one of them has special needs, which means I cannot take pets into my home at this time. But I am happy to stay at your home provided my husband is not out of town.
“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 have taken care of animals since I was old enough to walk. I have experience with a wide range of animals. I love every critter big or small and love caring for them. I am no stranger to caring for senior, sick, and/or injured animals. I would love to put your mind at ease with great pet care! I am a Sophomore college student in on Summer break. I do work 2-3 days a week, but my schedule is flexible and I can make most things work. I would love to work it out to be able to care for your animals! I am ready and able to provide any service your fur baby needs. We can play, walk or just hangout in a safe space with a safe person when I look after your animals.
“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: I have taken care of all types of dogs of all different ages since I was very little. I believe walks should be enjoyable and safe. I adapt to each dog’s pace, offer patience for puppies, gentle care for seniors, and dependable communication for owners. Pet care fits really well into my weekends. I keep my schedule pretty flexible, so I’m able to focus on walks and give each dog my full attention without feeling rushed. I care for pets in their own home where they’re most comfortable. I follow the owner’s instructions closely, keep routines consistent, make sure pets are safe and comfortable, and always give them plenty of attention during visits and walks.
“Monet is fantastic. My kiddos loved her from the moment she walked in the door. She is calm, patient and attentive and made sure they stayed on their routine. Will definitely have Monet watch my kiddos again.”


About: Hi! I’m a reliable and experienced animal lover who grew up on a farm, so caring for animals has always been a natural part of my life. I’ve worked with a wide variety of pets and am comfortable with different personalities, sizes, and needs. I regularly care for pets for friends and family, and I’ve also provided in-home care while working as a respite caregiver for a family with dogs—so I understand the importance of trust, routine, and keeping pets happy and comfortable in their own environment. Whether it’s walks, drop-in visits, or companionship, I’ll treat your pet like my own and make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. My schedule varies since I work full-time as a nurse with three 12-hour shifts each week, and I rotate between day and night shifts every other month. However, this also means I have several full days off each week that I dedicate to pet care. On my days off, I’m very flexible and available for walks, drop-ins, and extended visits. On workdays, my availability is more limited, but I’m happy to discuss options depending on timing. I always prioritize clear communication and consistency so your pet gets the care they need. I prioritize safety, routine, and comfort for every pet. With my nursing background and animal experience, I’m attentive and reliable, follow all care instructions closely, and provide a calm, clean environment.

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. I am in the process of gating my own front yard. Once completed I will accept daytime sitting at my own home. I am however willing to take your dog to any park you would like and approve of.
About: I have a dog of my own named Finn, who I adore! He is a mini dachshund. I also grew up in a home with several animals, so caring for pets has always been a natural part of my life. I love cats and dogs equally, and I’ve volunteered at the Humane Society of the Black Hills as well. I am currently an accelerated nursing student at SDSU and my schedule works well for pet sitting. I also enjoy taking care of animals it’s very therapeutic for me so it works out. I’m pretty flexible when it comes to pet sitting in someone else’s home. I cannot do it in my own because it’s my mother’s house and she’s allergic to dogs. My own dog is with my husband while I am in nursing school. So I will compensate by getting all the love from the pets. I won’t be caring for pets in my own home, but I’m very comfortable providing care in your home and helping your pets stick to their normal routine. I also pet sit for my brother’s dog frequently, so I’m used to managing daily needs like feeding schedules, potty breaks, playtime, and companionship. I’m happy to take your pet on walks and make sure they’re fed, exercised, and getting plenty of attention and affection. I know how important it is for pets to feel safe and comfortable while you’re away, and I’ll do my best to keep things as normal for them as possible. I also don’t mind helping with light household chores during my visits, things like bringing in mail/packages, watering plants, taking out trash, or tidying up pet areas so you can come home to a clean, settled space.
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 grew up with dogs and I currently have a black lab who lives with my husband. I’ve dog sat for friends and family throughout my life. I love to run, walk and be outside in nature. Dogs are definitely considered family to me! I am a travel nurse from South Dakota but currently live in Des Moines. I work night shift so during the day I’m around. My days are generally grouped together but letting pets out or walking are both doable! I can do overnights and watch for periods of time it will just depend on my schedule. I always want to respect the animal and let them come to me to meet and get to know me first. I love to play fetch or with whatever toys they like.
“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!”

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.

“Mark took excellent care of my pup. She got along very well with his 2 dogs. He made sure I was comfortable before leaving my dog with him overnight. Thanks again Mark! Highly recommend”

“Caroline and Alena are fantastic - great communicators, they sent pics and videos, and they seemed to truly enjoy my pup, which just felt good. Everything went smoothly from start to finish, and I highly recommend them! My gratitude to you both!”

“Brooke was absolutely superb. She is clearly a professional at what she does and she made our dog (and us!) feel extremely comfortable and safe. We boarded our dog for two days and the experience could not have been better. We are grateful for her care and cannot recommend her highly enough!!”

“Melissa was amazing, and I'm thrilled we found her to watch our dog. She was incredibly easy to work with, she was a great communicator, and mostly importantly she took fantastic care of our dog. I will not hesitate to connect with her again next time we need a dog sitter. Highly recommended!”


“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!”

“I had a last minute emergency and needed my kitten watched for the day. She gladly took him in to her house, and “babysat” him. Me and my little Paquito appreciate her!”

“Gianna is AMAZING - we worry about leaving our “baby”, and she was so reassuring and sent plenty of updates and pictures. She has a beautiful property for dogs to run and play. We never worried about our guy at all. She will definitely be our go-to person from now on!!”

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.

“As a repeat client, I highly recommend Susan. I'm totally at ease leaving Chili in Susan's care. Chili was excited when we arrived at Susan's house. Off Chili went for a walk with Susan. It was great to see Chili in the photos and video Susan sent me during the stay. I'll definitely book another stay for Chili.”

“We loved having Margaret stay at our home and watch our Westie. She is exceptionally professional, punctual, friendly, caring and an all-around awesome person. We greatly appreciated her clear communication. Margaret texted us regular updates and photos. She took great care of our pup, following all of our intricate care instructions. She also kept the house in perfect shape. A++ experience”
