Taylor did drop-in visits for my puppy Thor twice a day over 3 days, and she was phenomenal! Thor was well fed, well taken care of and well toileted. After we came home from our vacation, Thor’s been going downstairs frequently (which he never does) which I think is because he misses her🥺 I would trust Taylor with any Rover services, she is trustworthy, VERY timely and truly cares for animals! Thank you Taylor🥰

Evelin came over twice prior to our drop-in visit to meet our two very apprehensive Mini Aussies and I think that went a long way in them being comfortable with her when she came in alone. We are very grateful for such wonderful care!

Annalia was so great with our cat, River! She sent thorough updates each day and even went above and beyond by trying to groom River (he hates being brushed!). She brought in packages for us while we were gone on vacation and generally kept an eye on things. She was also very responsive to messages (responded promptly). Will definitely be using Annalia again!

Hillary did an amazing job watching our two dogs. We booked only a couple of days in advance, but Hillary still made time to come to meet us and the dogs before our trip. Our shy dogs liked her immediately and she didn’t mind our extra details. She checked in with an update each visit and even sent photos. It was great to travel knowing that the pups were so well cared for. We will definitely be booking with Hillary again.

William was great. He dropped in on my 3 dogs, sent pics, and updates during the weekend. I felt very comfortable that my dogs were being looked after by him. I would definitely recommend William and will be contacting him for future drop ins.

Jesse was great and took the best care of our cats. She of course fed them and cleaned the litter boxes but she also made sure to sit, play, and chat to the kitties as well. They barely missed me when I got home so I know they had great company. Thank you Jesse!

About: I've taken care of family pets since I was old enough to help out! I've taken care of dogs, cats, rabbits, ferrets, fancy rats, fish... Pretty much any type of animal! I do walks, overnight sitting, and check-ins. My family, friends, and previous clientscan attest to my experience and talent in caring for all creatures, big and small. I'm taking on a full-time teaching position in Raleigh in August, but until then my schedule is fairly open! I can do walks and drop-ins on a regular basis and plan to continue providing them and overnight care in the Raleigh area after moving. I maintain a friendly and open relationship with pets, meeting them where they're at rather than forcing them to come to me. I will always maintain any recommendations or schedules given to me to ensure that I give your pets the best care possible. I will also always obey house rules and ensure that me and your fur baby leave your home just as it was when you left!

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog and cat owner with experience caring for pets of all sizes, personalities, and needs, including blind and diabetic dogs. I’m also a proud cat mom of two and genuinely love spending time with animals. I’m active and love being outside, so I’m happy to match your dog’s energy with walks, playtime, or runs. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away, with plenty of updates and attentive care along the way. I currently offer pet care availability during early mornings, lunchtime, and evenings on weekdays, with more flexible availability on weekends. I’m an active person who loves hiking, running, and rock climbing, so I’m happy to match your dog’s energy—whether that means walks, runs, or playtime. I’m also very comfortable with a range of pet personalities. I’m happy to cuddle affectionate pets or give shy cats the space they need to feel safe and comfortable. This makes me a great option for anyone needing reliable early morning or afternoon care, along with consistent, attentive support for their pets throughout the week. I will always follow any specific instructions regarding treats, care routines, brushing, walking, or play so your pet gets exactly what they need and are used to. I take communication seriously and am happy to share pictures and regular updates during my time with your pet so you can feel confident and connected while you’re away. Your home will be treated with the same care and respect as my own, and I always aim to leave things even better than I found them.

About: I have loved and taken care of animals my entire life! We live on a beautiful farm with premium, safe, fenced-in yard spaces for dogs to have individual or group play. There are also clean and safe stalls for them to have their own individual or combined enclosed spaces! I have been a stay at home mother for the past 17 years, and now have more time to take care of other people‘s pets when they need a loving environment to bring them to! I look forward to helping others in their time of need, to also feel safe, leaving their beloved pet with someone who will take care of them like their own. This is an exclusive outdoor daycare and boarding facility. We have four very large horse stalls that provide plenty of room for an individual, or multiple pets. If a stall is to be used, it can be theirs any time of day or night, the owner may decide what schedule they want their pet to have.

About: Hi! My name is Taylor and I am a caring, responsible, and patient pet lover. I have experience caring for a variety of different animals including dogs, cats, rabbits, horses, chickens, and fish. I enjoy spending my time with animals and would love to my spend my time caring for your animals! Please reach out if you have any more questions and I would be glad to answer them. :) I am currently working remotely full time so I would be able to give your animals lots of attention in the mornings and evenings but I will also be able to check on them throughout my work hours. I like to meet with pet parents before staying in their home to learn their routine and how they care for their animals. I like to make a list of all the things pet parents tell me so I can ensure that I provide the best care for their animals.

Kalah did a stellar job with Piper so can be dog aggressive at times. This was our first time with anyone helping us out. She made it such a breeze. Even helped with her special diet. The pictures were so reassuring. Will be calling on her again!!

Emily was amazing from the start. She listened to all the kitties needs and tried to socialize with them before our vacation so that they are not unfamiliar with her. With every drop in visit she made sure all their needs are taken care of, checked their water and most importantly engaged them with lots of play time. Within her second visit she was able to convince our shy cat to trust her and took great care of them. She also provided regular updates and listened to any input we had She provided a peace of mind while we were hundreds of miles away and our cats also loved interacting with her. We will definitely rebook with Emily again when life requires us to be elsewhere

About: I have never been in a home without a pet. Growing up with a dog and multiple cats has shaped me into being an animal lover. I have focused on providing long and happy lives for my pets and I know I have the heart to care for yours too! Besides caring for elderly cats, I have rescued and rehomed multiple others. Sometimes cats need a bit of patience and kindness to come out of their shell. Besides cats, I love dogs too! I think that my open heart and patient mindset works well for most animals! I am a recent college graduate who is looking for a full-time job, so I have a completely open schedule for your pets! I expect to take my time and ensure that your pet is properly taken care of when needed. When visiting your home, I have the upmost respect for privacy and trust. I know having someone come to your home is nerve-wracking, but I am just there to ensure your kitty or dog has the upmost care while you are away! I plan to always offer updates and follow provided directions perfectly.

About: I love taking care of and playing with animals, and am looking to spend time with your critters, whether dog, cat, bird, or beast. I grew up on a farm around chickens, horses, dogs, and pigs, and I've always had a connection with animals and find their presence comforting. I can come and check in on your loved ones and feed them and play with them. I have my own dog whom I love very much and I enjoy showering any and all animals I meet with attention. I'm most experienced with dogs, but I'm a quick learner and enjoy learning how to take care of all animals. I have very little experience administering medications, but am willing to learn, if shown how or given detailed instructions.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Gulf

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of July 2026, there are 983 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Gulf. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.

House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.

Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.

If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.

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 .

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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Gulf. On Rover:

  • 91% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 96% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 98% 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.

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.
