“Kenny and Olga were fantastic! They had great communication, were super friendly and have a lovely, clean, safe home. I felt like Buster was very well taken care of. I would highly recommend and will be using them again in the future 😊”
“This was Bella's first overnight in almost 7 years and everything went well. Kristin is great with the doggies and I believe Bella likes her a bit too(sarc). We are going to book her for a 6 day stay later this month.”
“Jennifer is the BEST!! She loved our pup like her own for a long 9 day stay! We got updates multiple times a day and I think Harper was sad to leave her! We won’t be sending her to anyone else!”
“Sue and Gary were great, very kind. They took great care of my boy. I. Wish I’d gotten more picture updates, because I miss him so much when I leave him with others, so they still get 5 stars.”
About: Pregnant, nursing, newborn, adolescent, adult and senior, large or small, I have had them all. Many breeds either in my home or friends animals I have cared for. Need medication given? Not a problem, special diet, even injections, your pets will be loved and well cared for. My home has acres to run and play on, 2 separate fenced areas if pets need to be separated. Do they like to swim? My pond is their pond during their stay and I can bath them for you before they go home. I am a stay at home, homeschooling mom. Very rarely will your babies be alone at my home. They will have attention and care most of the day and night, everyday. My home is pet friendly. Fully fenced yard, with separate fenced back yard. Multiple dog beds that my dogs would be happy to share with yours, don’t forget sofa snuggles. If crating is needed, we have that as well. We have a dog door that opens into the backyard so pets can come and go if they want on their own. Need your dog bathed before he comes home? Just say the word.
“Kathryn was the perfect host for our pet! She opened her home and treated our dog as her honored guest. She made our very shy and nervous dog feel comfortable immediately, and kept us up to date with pictures and written updates. We look forward to having our dog stay with her again!!! We could not have asked for a better experience. Kathryn is definitely a dog whisperer!!”
“Olivia was incredibly accommodating. I reached out and booked at the last minute to help a fellow grandmother with boarding her two fur babies, and she made the entire process easy and stress-free. Because I was rushing and didn’t know much about the pups, I didn’t realize (or think to ask) that one of them might be in heat. Olivia typically doesn’t accept pups in heat, but given the emergency situation, she graciously worked with us anyway. She even provided pick-up and drop-off, which was a huge help. When she brought them back, it was clear the pups really liked her, and that told me everything. They were well cared for and comfortable with her. I absolutely recommend Olivia for your fur baby boarding needs!”
“Caroline was absolutely amazing with our sweet Jackson! We needed a sitter the same day, and she came through for us without hesitation. She kept us updated, communicated every step of the way, and treated Jackson like he was her own. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing he was in such loving hands. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would recommend Caroline to anyone looking for someone they can truly trust with their fur baby. Thank you again ..we’ll definitely be booking with you in the future!”
About: Hi friends! Thanks for taking the time to read my bio. I'm here because I would LOVE to get some steps in with your fur baby! Or just chill and give them back scratches if thats their preference. I love all dogs, no matter their age or breed. Volunteering at shelters has been a hobby of mine since childhood. Ive been a dog walker for Wag! for years but am switching to Rover because the Wag app is terribly glitchy. My most recent adventure has been fostering shelter pups - we currently had a foster fail situation which is how I got my current fur child, Indie. I've always adopted shelter dogs; to include labs, pitbulls, mixed breeds, and now a goldendoodle! I joined Rover in hopes of doing it more because I enjoy helping busy people take care of their precious pups. I'm a FOND believer of spoiling your pets. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions about my knowledge or experience. :) I'm currently in between jobs and have LOTS of time to love on your precious fur baby. Let's schedule some time together and make some memories! I'm in a 2 bedroom apartment with a friendly goldendoodle to keep your pup company. Our days consist of many walks, and going to the dog park. We have one in the complex but I also enjoy going to the city parks. I am happy to let your baby sleep in the bed with me or I can crate them. Whatever your preference is, let's talk about it.

“Caitlin was such a gem to work with! We needed a last minute sister, she was super flexible and accommodating! She sent pictures throughout the day, was constantly checking in with us, was honest and understanding about our dogs behaviors and did really well to communicate everything that was going on while he was in her care, gave lots of cuddles for our Mr. Kai and he left super happy! We will 10/10 be going back to Caitlin!!! Can not thank you enough for being a rockstar!!!”
“Ellie really enjoyed staying with Ivania and her dog, Lex. She went the extra mile to make sure Ellie was well taken care of and was very accommodating during the booking process. If you're looking for a great dog sitter, look no further!”
About: Hi, I’m super active and have been around animals since I was very young. I have owned and cared for horses, dogs, cats and fish. I have pets of my own and have experience with feeding set meal schedules, daily walks, and giving animals the love and attention they need. I treat every pet like family and make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you’re away. Whether it’s a quick walk or overnight sitting, I’ve got you covered! I have availability in the early mornings and late evenings. Just let me know in advance and I’ll make sure your pet gets the time and care they need during those hours. Due to restrictions in my housing complex, I’m not able to host pets at my place but I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for in their familiar space.
Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Gulf Highlands
Kerigann was an absolute blessing! We booked with her very last minute (the day before we left town for 6 days) and we’ll never leave town again without calling her first! She sent us updates and pictures every day that we were gone! Our puppies were in great spirits when we got home and it was obvious that they were very well cared for! Kerigann definitely deserves the 5 stars!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
Rover is the largest marketplace for local pet care. Whether you're looking for pet sitters, dog walkers, or house sitters who specialize in pet sitting, you can narrow your search by entering your ZIP code to find sitters within walking distance in your neighborhood.
Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, daily exercise may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Gulf Highlands home-away-from-home, packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Gulf Highlands.
Tip: You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Gulf Highlands sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.

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 dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog 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.
