“Rod was terrific! He stayed 10 days caring for our needy dog and our home. Imaging our surprise when we got home at 1:00 am and the house was exactly the way we left it and our dog didn't seem to miss us at all. I can highly recommend Rod and will definitely book him again when we need another sitter. Can't thank him enough!”
About: I believe dogs and pets are part of the family, and I’ll treat yours that way. I’ve been around dogs and animals my entire life and genuinely enjoy caring for them. Friends and family have trusted me to check in on their dogs, let them outside, feed them, play with them, and make sure they’re comfortable while they’re away. I’m dependable, active, and attentive, and I understand how important it is to know your dog and pets are safe and being well cared for when you can’t be there. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal routine and any specific instructions you provide. I’ll treat your pet and your home with the same care and respect I would expect for my own. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to provide dependable care throughout the week and on weekends. I’m available for drop-in visits, walks, and scheduled pet care, and I’ll do my best to accommodate the routine your pet is already comfortable with. I understand that pets thrive on consistency, so being there when expected is important to me. I believe pets are part of the family, so their safety and comfort always come first. When caring for a pet in your home, I’ll follow your instructions closely, respect your home, and keep your pet’s normal routine as consistent as possible. I’ll make sure doors, gates, leashes, food, water, and any special instructions are handled carefully. I’m also happy to provide updates and photos so you know your pet is safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away.
“Christi was amazing! She loved on our golden so well and was extremely communicative, giving us daily updates along with pictures. We will definitely be rebooking with her in the future!”
“we had a great experience with parker! he came over to meet us & our dog before his stay which i always appreciate. he was easy to communicate with, sent photos, and played outside with our pup a ton. he had no problem administering her medication & he left our house as he found it. thanks, parker!”
About: Hi, I’m Debbie, and I have always had dogs in my life! I retired a little over a year ago, and I love spending time with my husband and our 2 year old Golden Retriever, Frankie. He’s our second Golden and we love this breed, although we really love all dogs — cats, too! I enjoy walking Frankie and we are avid walkers in this house. I’d love to take your dog on walks, too! I’m available for dog walking, drop in visits for feeding and potty breaks (with or without Frankie tagging along, that would be up to you); I can also housesit your dog in your own home while you’re away on vacation or other travels. I look forward to meeting you and your pet! I’m retired, so my schedule is fairly flexible. I occasionally have appointments and other activities, but I can easily fit your pet’s care into my lifestyle. I have a fully fenced backyard where my Golden Retriever, Frankie, would be ready to make friends with your dog if you’d like them to meet. If you’d prefer that your dog stay at home in his/her own surroundings, I’ll be happy to oblige whatever requests you have in order to keep your pet comfortable and happy.
“Dwayne took care of my crew while attending to family business in another state. It was clear from the start what a great animal lover he is as my big dog immediately wanted to be besties. He got my little guys to warm up to him and sent lots of pics of them smiling. He was attentive in every way. He’s a terrific human and clearly takes great pride in his services. I would highly recommend him and will definitely be contacting Dwayne again for future needs. Do not hesitate to book with Dwayne!”
About: As a lifelong pet owner, I've always had multiple animals in my home and understand the love, patience, and care they need every day. I provide reliable, compassionate pet care and treat every pet like they're part of my own family. Whether you need someone to check in, provide companionship, or care for your pets while you're away, you can count on me to keep them safe, happy, and well cared for. I work with autistic kids on my work days I only work Sunday and Monday until 3:30 I am completely free every other day of the week and would love to chose those days to give your pets everything they deserve! Whether your pet stays in my home or I care for them in the comfort of yours, my goal is to make them feel safe, loved, and happy. I provide plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, fresh food and water, and lots of affection while following their normal routine as closely as possible. I understand that every pet is unique, so I take the time to learn their individual needs and personality. I treat every animal as if they were my own, giving you peace of mind knowing they're receiving compassionate, reliable care while you're away.
“Morgan stayed at my house & cared for my very demanding (spoiled) Cavalier KCS, betta fish & chameleon. I returned to a very clean, neat home & happy pets. I would recommend Morgan!”
“Complete peace of mind! Amie is a wonderful pet sitter! She stayed in our home and took care of it like her own. We had total confidence that our pets were safe and loved. She sent many pictures and updates and was easy to communicate with. Don’t hesitate to book with Amie. You won’t find a better pet sitter”
“There is nothing Anissa could have done better. She was a perfect house sitter for our 2 dogs. She is an excellent listener and very attentive to the dogs needs. Its nice to leave town and not have any anxiety that the pets aren't in the best hands.”
“Christina was so awesome! She and her daughter loved and cared for Kobe and our home while we were gone for a week. She sent us a text or photo everyday and Kobe loved her! Our house was clean and perfect when we got back too. Would 100% book Christina again.”
About: I've been around dogs my whole life, as many of us have. I think what sets me apart is patience and experience providing medical care for elder pets. I'd be delighted to care for your family members. An open, flexible schedule allows me to care for pets any evening, for any weekend. Willing and able to assist clients with medication administration to pets on a strict schedule. Patience and consistency is key to quality pet care. I vow to respect the home of all of my clients, and provide the best service I can.
“Casey was fantastic! I appreciated her communication ahead of tome and pre-meeting us and then updates and pictures throughout the visit. Will definitely be scheduling again!”
About: I have been pet sitting for friends and family members since i was old enough to be left alone! I've watched many dogs from shih tzus to pointers, labs, cane corsos and more! i hope you'll consider me as your next pet sitter! Kind regards I am starting a horse trainer apprentice job soon so I'll have plenty of extra time for caring for your pets and making sure they stay happy and stimulated! When at your home i will follow any given rules, feeding times, walking times and routes, i can send hourly updates and photos when i am there so you know your pets are safe and happy!
“Michelle is my first and only choice when it comes to caring for my dogs. She treats your fur babies like they’re her own, giving them love, attention, and the best care while you’re away. Knowing they’re with her gives me complete peace of mind. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and compassionate.”
About: I’ve been taking care of pets since I was a kid, and now work my full time job with animals every day. I have experience caring for dogs, cats, ferrets, and rodents! My senior dog has Stage 3 kidney disease and we provide daily care for him, including oral and injectable meds, and special diets. I am comfortable doing this with other animals :) I work a full time job during the week, hours 7 am - 3:30 pm. Am looking for supplemental income by providing pet care to those in need. I am available after 4:30 pm during the week, and weekends. I have a fenced in yard for my for dog, and a crate available if needed. I would prefer caring for your pets at your home but am willing to bring them to my home if they are dog and cat friendly. I have a senior dog who has some trouble getting around so we have ramps, but he prefers dogs that are smaller than he is, about 55 lbs. My pets are treated like kings and queens in our home and I would provide the same care for your fur babies!
“Morgan was very friendly and receptive of all the house sitting instructions I provided. She took great care of my anxious dog Athea and my three cats, even on last-minute booking. I will definitely be rebooking and would recommend her to others :)”
“Vanya was beyond amazing while staying at our house and watching our dog and two cats! She sent multiple pictures/updates throughout the days we were away and went above and beyond to keep our house clean and our pets happy. We will definitely be using Vanya in the future for as long as she will have us!”

Parker was great! We were traveling in our motorhome with two wild Springer Spaniel puppies for a wedding and Parker came to the campground to take care of our pups.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for House Sitting in Vicksburg on Rover is $43.29 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 320 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.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Vicksburg. On Rover:
- 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
- 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
- 96% 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.
