About: I grew up on a farm and took part in daily care of all animals big and small. My love for animals started at a young age as I made it my personal mission to convince my parents to allow me to take in literally dozens of strays abandoned on our dirt road over the years. I’ve had a soft spot for animals my entire life. I believe every animal deserves to be treated with compassion and dignity. In my adult life, I’ve fostered young puppies, cared for and trained a shepsky mix for the last 7 years, and have cared for cats ranging from bottle fed kittens to senior cats as old as 25 (RIP Miss Priss 🥲) and am now the proud parent of a dart frog tadpole! I can work with you to determine what schedule works best for your pets needs. My children are in school three days a week and play with family and friends every other day, so it’s no problem for me to slip out for 30-60 minutes to tend to your furry friends. I have one cat, one dog, and two young children. For these reasons, I prefer to pet sit in your home because that is the environment that your pet is most comfortable with, but *can* offer boarding in my home to established clients if your pet is amenable to sharing our space! My pets each have their own room and I have implemented a crate & rotate system for other animal guests in the past to ensure that there are no unfortunate accidents. My husband will be present to supervise our children, but trust that the privilege of caring for your pet is all mine. We have a large fenced in back yard and a quiet safe neighborhood for all of the outdoor enrichment your pet could dream of! For drop in pet care, I will follow your rules and routines exactly as you relay them to me and can provide you with an abundance of pictures to show you that your pets are in good hands.
“Erica was incredible! Taking on 3 St. Bernard’s is not easy due to size alone. She had no hesitation! They got to go out multiple times a day, on walks, cuddled on the couch. Everything! We had her stay at our house for the 5 days and it was such peace of mind. Our dogs loved her! She kept in regular contact and sent photos. We cannot wait to book her again soon!”
“Breanna was Fantastic!!! We went on a one week vacation, and she sent us pictures daily of our small Chihuahua, and updates on not only how he was a joy to keep for us but how he was enjoying her being there. The photos that she sent really put us at ease because this was the first trip without him with us!!! I would proudly recommend her with a great review, and to my fellow fur owners?”
About: I've been pet sitting for 11 years and have tons of references from my own pet sitting business. Services I provide include feeding, walking, spending time with them, and administering medication. I LOVE animals and nothing makes me happier than to be able to work them. :) I recently moved to Jackson, TN from Germantown, TN and I'm looking for new clients. I have lots of references and have 12 years of experience. I'm currently only working part time so I only have plenty of time to care for your fur babies!:) For overnight stay, I always follow the directions provided by my clients. If I'm providing care throughout the day and overnight, I feed breakfast and dinner/let them out for potty, check on them one or two more times per day, and then spend the night.
“Kelsey did a wonderful job with our girls and our home while we were out of town. She has great communication and updated us on our girls. They were very well taken care of and spoiled just as we spoil them. I felt very relaxed on our trip knowing she was taking care of them. She's a great pet sitter and highly recommend her for visits and Longer stays. .”
About: I’ve cared for animals throughout my life growing up in a small town in Tennessee, including dogs, cats, and even a bird. These experiences taught me how to care for animals beyond their basic needs—to be patient, understand their behavior, respect their boundaries, and always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I enjoy spending time with animals and staying active. I have a flexible schedule and can make time throughout the week for walks, check-ins, feeding, and giving pets the attention and care they need I treat every pet differently because they all have their own personality and needs. I pay attention to their behavior, give them time to get comfortable with me, and make sure they feel safe rather than forcing interaction. I’ll follow their normal routine, keep them active and cared for, and give them the same patience and attention I would want someone to give my own pets.

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 Youngs Crossing 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 Youngs Crossing 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 Youngs Crossing 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 casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
