I'm so glad I found Brittany to watch my 2 chihuahuas! She has a backyard which they loved and she sent me updates while I was gone. One of my chihuahuas is 15 so she needs some extra care and attention, and Brittany was able to give her that. I'll definitely be using her again!

Molly was amazing with my 12-week old puppy! Sent tons of pic/video updates, administered meds including foam when he was itching. She had her sweet Olive girl + other pups during the stay - Molly actively supervised play, had separate feedings, and ensured there was no resource guarding which put my mind at such ease. Tribe will only to Molly’s from now on!!

Savannah was very sweet and professional. She’s been the best sitter I’ve had so far. She watched our dog for 6 days with no issues whatsoever. I would trust her anytime with our animals and will certainly use her again. Thank you Savannah for taking wonderful care of our baby and for such an easy, care free experience!

Teri is amazing! I knew my senior dog was in the best of hands from the time we first communicated online. She wanted to make sure he had all his shots and even communicated with my vet with questions she had about him. Everyday Teri texted me with photos and videos of how he was doing. He is a 15 1/2 year old senior dog and this was his first experience at boarding with other dogs. So I was a little concerned how he would do in a new situation. However, I had full confidence that Teri could handle any situation that would come up. Teri is a wonderful, responsible dog sitter, Someone who will be truly dedicated to loving and taking care of your dog!

Billy was a fantastic sitter for Shadow, our collie / corgi mix. Billy watched / boarded Shadow for a 30 days and all went smoothly. He sent us updates / photos each day and was very responsive if we ever had to communicate with him. Also, Billy only watches one dog at a time so owners don’t have to worry about other animals being with yours. My wife and I would definitely recommend Billy to anyone looking for a dog sitter.

We had such a great experience with Grace during our 6-day boarding stay. She took amazing care of our Rottweiler and kept us in the loop the whole time with updates and photos, which we really appreciated. Her home is warm and welcoming and honestly feels more like a dog spa than a boarding setup. Our dog was clearly comfortable hanging out with her kids and the other pups, and it was great knowing he was getting plenty of love and social time. Grace was also super flexible and easy to work with. Best of all, our dog came home clean, happy, and relaxed. We’d absolutely book with Grace again and would recommend her to anyone looking for a caring, home-style place for their dog. She is a true gem.

Susan took good care of Tooey during a recent 6 day period. She is a patient sitter and clearly loves dogs. Tooey was in good hands with her and her daughter. Tooey also had the company of Susan’s dog Abner, which I’m sure helped her feel more comfortable during her stay.

I can’t stress enough how stress-free my trip was knowing Jane and her partner were taking such good care of my girls. I knew they were going to be treated like family and loved on the entire time I was gone. Jane provided updates and videos I was so happy knowing they were happy girls living the beach life as if they were their own. They were excited to see me, but I could tell they felt right at home and would love to stay hunting lizards and squirrels forever. 100% would book with them again.

I hope she is always available to be our dog sitter. She has had no problems with feeding her. She even had a blanket for Ginger to use when we forgot to bring Ginger’s bed. Thanks so much Brianna!!

I can’t say enough great things about this experience! Jaxson and Jordyn were so well taken care of and clearly loved every minute of their stay. They got plenty of cuddle time, socialized with other dogs, and the cutest surprise was the Easter egg hunt. Seeing them come home with little Easter baskets absolutely made my day. It’s clear how much care and thought went into everything. I would 100% book again without hesitation!

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!!!

FAQs for Boarding - Gulfport

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Boarding in Gulfport on Rover is $44.4 per night (as of August 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 August 2026, there are 3,083 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.
