“Lisa took excellent care of our senior Frenchie. Our dog takes doily medication and becomes very anxious when we travel. When we returned from our trip, our dog acted as if we had never been away, and our house was in the same clean condition as when we left.”
“We love having Breana stay with or pups when we go out of town. She does a wonderful job making sure they get enough exercise outside & spends time with each dog. They are always happy and healthy when we get back :)”
“Jana was vert friendly and it was super easy to work with her. She was great with all of my animals even my skittish cat came out for some love from Jana! I will definitely book with her again!”
“John was amazing! Came through on short notice when my first sitter had to cancel and took great care of my dog and cat. Sent pics every day and was a great communicator! I felt my animals were safe and well cared for. I will definitely hire John again in the future!”
“I was really worried about my two girls Rajah and Zoe (boxers). Rajah and Zoe are very attached to mommy and daddy. We don’t leave them that often simply because of age and medical conditions. Rajah and Zoe toke to Brittney when we did a first meet and once again a few days before we left town for the weekend and they were completely comfortable with her and even my cat toke her, and he normally doesn’t take to strangers right away. Brittney responded to my text with in a reasonable amount of time when I messaged her. So, yes we would use Brittney again.”
“Alicia was the best sitter I could have asked for. She took the best care of my dog one could ask for. My dog was drawn to her instantly and didn't leave her side when she was watching him. I couldn't be happier with her service.”
“I cannot say enough great things about Dian! From the moment we booked, she was communicative, professional, and incredibly thoughtful. She kept me updated throughout the entire stay, sending photos and reassuring messages that put my mind at ease—especially important since one of my pups is a newly rescued dog who can be a bit of a handful. Dian was patient, calm, and so kind. To my surprise (and delight!), my rescue warmed up to her so much faster than I expected. Her calm presence and genuine care made all the difference. As someone who’s super picky (okay, neurotic) when it comes to my dogs and their care, I can confidently say Dian is a 10 out of 10. If you’re considering booking her—stop thinking and just do it. Your pets will be in the absolute best hands!”
About: I've grown up having dogs and cats. I love farm animals. I take care of others people's pets like my own. My husband and I have two dogs named Bonnie and Rufus. I am a stay at home wife. So pet care is the best fit for me. I also love animals so I really enjoy taking care of pets. I currently do not have a fence in yard. My dog Bonnie stays indoors. I can use a collar and leash. I can also use a crate if needed.
“Stephanie was an absolute rock star to work with! It was our first time having a house sitter take care of both our dog and our cat. Not only did they love her, she was punctual, safety conscious, and sent amazing updates to keep our minds at ease. I would confidently recommend her to anyone needing a pet sitter!”
“Kimberly is very sweet and was amazing with my Yorkie rescue!! She is very caring and compassionate and I truly love that! She actually spoiled him and catered to his needs❤️ I highly recommend her. THANK YOU AGAIN KIMBERLY🫶🏼 Thumper also says thank you! 🐶”
“Our mini schnauzer can be temperamental but she warmed up to Heather quickly. Communication was great and the house was immaculate. Thank you so much for taking such good care of our girl!”
About: Yes, I mean all of them! Pet care is my full time hobby and job. I have experience with nearly every kind of pet, from cats and dogs of any size to birds, fish, and exotics like reptiles, amphibians, and inverts! 🐈🐟🦎 I started caregiving when I was 14 and my love for animals has truly shaped who I am today at 20. I feel gifted for each and every 4 or more-legged family member I get to meet! 💗 I'm available any day, any time! If I'm not spending time with someone else's pet for work, then I'm hanging out with my own. This is my life and my passion 💖 I have a large, fenced in yard, a friendly dog and 2 cats for your babies to hang out with! There are two young children (7&9) at my house who are ready to assist in giving endless amounts of attention and play to your energetic pets in addition to quiet areas for those who are more shy to stay comfortable! 😊 Of course, toys and treats provided 💕
“Once again...a perfect experience leaving my home and my pet in the hands of Sheliya. I booked a second stay with her because the first time was exactly everything I needed and all went well. If you are nervous to leave your home and pet, then I encourage anyone out there to try Sheliya first! She's the absolute best!”

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Vicksburg on Rover is $38.85 per night (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of House 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 House Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 224 sitters on Rover offering House Sitting across Vicksburg. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Beyond belly rubs and feeding schedules, a house sitter’s presence may provide an additional layer of security for your home. However, you will need to arrange overnight stays and other household tasks with your sitter when reaching out to them. Not all sitters offer the same services. Common household tasks you can negotiate include:
- Mail & deliveries: Collecting letters and packages so they don't pile up.
- Plant care: Keeping your indoor or outdoor garden hydrated.
- Trash & recycling: Taking trash cans to the curb on scheduled pickup days.
- Home security: Sitters can stay overnight to keep your home occupied.
The best way to align on expectations is during your free Meet & Greet. Use this time to provide a "home cheat sheet" that includes your preferred Vicksburg walking routes, the location of your favorite pet store, and any specific quirks about your home’s security or appliances.
It’s helpful to think of house sitting as a "home base" service. Most sitters in Vicksburg maintain their normal daily routines, like running errands or heading to the office, meaning your pet should be comfortable being alone for a few hours at a time. If your pet needs a little extra company, here is how to find the perfect match:
- Look for "WFH" sitters: Many sitters mention "Work from Home" on their profile to indicate they’ll be present for the majority of the day.
- Update your pet’s profile: Write down how long your pet can comfortably be left alone. This helps sitters quickly determine if their schedule aligns with your needs.
- Communicate 24/7 needs: Standard house sitting usually doesn't include constant supervision. If your pet requires round-the-clock care, be sure to discuss this upfront.
Tip: Use the Meet & Greet to confirm a sitter's typical "away" windows. Transparency ensures your pet stays happy and your sitter can plan their day effectively!
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 Vicksburg 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!
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.
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 .
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your pet to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your pet is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
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.

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.
