“Matt was amazing!! Took great care of our baby and was so flexible with us needing 2 extra days due to the hurricane that closed the airport. We highly recommend him for your next boarding experience and will definitely use him again?”
“Pam was wonderful while caring for our 2 precious pups . She shared many photos and gave detailed information on how our dogs were doing the entire time that we were away. I highly recommend Pam to anyone who is looking for loving care of their dogs while they are away.”
“she understood our needs and loved our cat like we do while we were unable to be there, followed up daily with pictures and information very easy to deal with I would recommend her to anybody.”
“Alli was so great with Winston! We received updates from her multiple times a day and she made sure he was well taken care of! Winnie was very happy to play with a friend this weekend and he was wiped out when we picked him up. Would highly recommend her!”
“Amazing sitter! And in a pinch! Very accommodating and understanding of our situation. Cared for 2 Shiba Inu’s. One is a shy puppy. Sent pictures and videos every day.”
“Thanks for watching Zeek again. He loves you guys. He is almost as sad to leave your house as he is to leave mine. Haha. A lovely home away from home. I always love all of the photos. He also keeps staring at my coffee table like “why don’t we have a giant bean bag too, mom?! 🙂”
“Jennifer was great! She took very good care of Teddy and kept us up to date with how he was doing each day. She sent lots of pictures and videos. I’ll definitely leave teddy with her again.”
“Jen has a home that is great for dogs. And my pet had a blast playing with the other dogs at her residence. Jen is obviously a dog person and took great care with my dog Lucy. I will not hesitate to leave her with Jen in the future.”
“Teri was very attentive and kept me updated with coppers progress. She sent me tons of pictures, which I loved and kept me at ease. Will definitely board copper with her again!”
“Nastasia was simply wonderful with our four legged family member! She was prompt to reply to messages and questions, and from the photos we received daily, she clearly treated our pooch like one of her own fury family members! We will definitely book with Nastasia again!!”
“Very experienced, great pet sitter. Beverly was thoughtful and took great care of our lab who was six weeks from a surgery and needed a little special attention.”
“I will often not go on trips because I don't want to leave my dog. I've had her for 16 years and trusting someone else to care for her, keep her safe and happy, is difficult for me. She's only ever had one other caregiver outside of immediate family and that woman is still a dear friend, but she's in another geographical state. Thanks to Rover, I have now found Christina and she's the perfect solution for me and my dog. The way Christina managed every aspect of my senior dog's needs and communication with me, is a relief second to none. Thank you, Christina!”
“Thank you, Marianne and Chris! Bear loves to come visit. And we are very appreciative that he has a fun and safe place to stay when we are away. See you next time!”
“Not much more to say that I haven’t said before, but just to confirm, Claire is the BEST!! Our dog Birdie has such a wonderful time with her every time she stays there. And we always get LOTS of photos to show us how much fun she is having. Thanks again, Claire!”
“Daniel was extremely flexible with our last minute request and went out of his way in every aspect. Will definitely use him again and recommend to all of our friends.”
“I cannot say enough wonderful things about Nicole! She took exceptional care of Martin and treated him as if he were her own. From the very beginning, her communication was clear, prompt, and reassuring. She sent regular updates and photos, which gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. Martin can be a little shy at first, but he warmed up to Nicole immediately — a true testament to her patience and loving approach. He enjoyed his walks, playtime, and all the extra attention she gave him. When I returned, he was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. Nicole’s professionalism, reliability, and genuine love for animals truly stand out. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for excellent, trustworthy pet care. Martin and I will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Kugel loves going to Sydney’s so so much. She was flexible when we had to change the pick up time last minute. We love that he usually has another friend or two to play with but not an overwhelming number of dogs.”
“Liz was such a great dog sitter for our rescue, he has issues with other dogs and can’t be in a house with other animals, so she was a perfect fit. Banner came home tired and happy which is a great sign! She was great at keeping us updated on how he was over the weekend and sending photos. We’ll absolutely use her again!”

Another amazing stay with Molly and Olive! Tribe came home exhausted from all the play and love. Olive is such a patient sweet girl with young Tribe and Molly keeps an eye on all play - I trust them with my baby completely and wouldn’t want him in anyone else’s hands.
William and his family were absolutely wonderful with Tequila during his two-week stay! I was nervous about leaving him for that long since he’s still young, but they all made me feel so much more comfortable knowing he was being well cared for. His family was incredibly welcoming and really made Tequila part of their household while he was there. William kept me updated throughout the trip with messages and pictures, and was always responsive whenever I checked in. Tequila came home happy, healthy, and clearly very comfortable with everyone. I’m so grateful to William and his entire family for the time, patience, and care they gave my boy. I would absolutely trust them with Tequila again! 🤍
Kylee was amazing. My dog can be timid and have separation anxiety when she's away from me, but Kylee gave her the best vacation. She kept us updated and communication was great. Our dog had a great time with her and absolutely adored her. I highly Kylee for your dog sitter. We I'll definitely use her again - thank you!
Laurie is a one of a kind boarder/sitter❤️. There will never be another like her! She took care of Jersey like he was one of her own. I appreciate Laurie & her husband for loving Jersey. We are going to miss you so much since we are moving out of state. Godspeed 💜🐾
Peggy was wonderful! We felt completely comfortable leaving Penny with her, and we really appreciated that she sent us pictures every day. It was so nice getting those little updates while we were away and knowing Penny was happy and being well cared for. We would absolutely book with Peggy again!
Thank you Ruthie, Jerry and Pete for taking such great care of Touille and Petals!! We were able to enjoy our vacation knowing that our girls were staying in a safe and comfortable home with loving people. Thank you for the daily updates and awesome pictures!! Best Rover experience we’ve ever had!
Savannah graciously watched after my two pups on short notice when a last minute work trip came up. I was a little nervous as they can be a bit rambunctious, but she was phenomenal with them. She provided daily updates with lots photos (and the cutest videos) which put my mind at ease. My pups had a blast and were so well cared for. I’ll definitely be booking again!
Kayla was wonderful with Charlie! She was very responsive, sent lots of pictures and updates, and even FaceTimed me when I wanted to see Charlie. I felt so comfortable knowing she was in great hands. Highly recommend Kayla and will definitely be using her again in the future. Thank you, Kayla!!❤️
I can’t say enough about Angel and Kenny. My boys always have a good time. And they are safe and happy. Angel and Kenny always send pictures and are so professional and extremely kind. I never worry when my two boys are there. They are amazing. You’d be lucky to have them watch your fur babies.
Kelly is amazing!!! This was my first time leaving Cooper in her care and he seemed to love being with her. She gave him so much attention and took him out to do his favorite activity (play ball) every day. I also received multiple pictures and videos every day to show me how much fun he was having. He was well taken care of and I don't think he wanted to leave :) I definitely recommend Kelly to take care of your fur baby!!!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Dog Boarding in Gulfport on Rover is $44.4 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 Dog Boarding 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 Dog Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of September 2026, there are 3,101 sitters on Rover offering Dog Boarding across Gulfport. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Every sitter on Rover has their own rhythm and routine, but most will follow the flow that keeps your dog happiest. Sitters can give meals on your dog's regular schedule, provide a comfortable place for sleep, and plenty of one-on-one attention.
95% of Gulfport sitters also include daily walks in the neighborhood during dog boarding stays. You can also request photo and message updates throughout the stay so you can see which Gulfport landmarks or neighborhoods your dog is enjoying.
If your dog is a little shy, consider booking a one-night trial stay! This practice run can boost your and your dog’s confidence before your trip.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Gulfport home-away-from-home, we recommend 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 Gulfport.
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 Gulfport 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.
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 .
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in FL ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
