About: Hello, and I am excited and happy to meet your fur family lovies. I like to go by the name Annie, I've been called that name since I was very young. I grew up on a farm with all sorts of animals big and small. I loved it, and still do. My insight into animal's needs and each of their unique characteristics are intune with my nature in caring for them. Compassion, safety and genuine concern over your dear pet's needs are ongoing with my services. I have a reliable and calm nature. Animals take to me well. I am an RN by profession. Am usually available throughout the 7 day week. I will take dogs up to 60 pounds, and are leash trained. I don't mind animals who need medication. I take dogs outside on leashes, walk the area or nearby park. I am able to run with them on the leash. Animals are welcome into my home, and free to safely roam around in it. I have 2 cats, and if needed, will put my cats in seperate room.
About: I am a friend to all animals!! I'm from Florida so I love all kinds of wildlife and have a big appreciation for nature and love to be outdoors, love to take pets on long walks and go to the beach with them. I've had dogs of varying sizes, from chihuahua to doberman, so I can handle a few different dogs on a walk. I'm fine with any activity level, dogs who like to nap all day or dogs who need to be taken out multiple times. I am also the worlds biggest cat person as I currently am mom to 3 cats, Sasha, Isis, and Frank!! I do absolutely wonderful with cats and am very good at taking care of them and understanding their needs, their boundaries, and their social cues. Not just cats and dogs I've also had bunnies, fish, turtles, and birds as well so my love for animals goes deep. I understand how important they are to us so I would take care of any pet like they are my own. I work from home so I can take care of pets every day. I wake up at 7 am to begin taking care of my cats. I have availabilities 7 days a week. If your pet has a specific routine just fill me in on the details and I will treat them as if they were my own! I live in a home with a backyard and multiple rooms for space for pets. I live in a pet friendly neighborhood where I can walk dogs for miles and miles! If a pet requires any type of specific space, I have room to provide it for them.
“I went on vacation for a week and left my dog with my parents who are not very mobile. Amy met my dog before I left town. Rght away he was laying next to her. I knew that she was going to be his new human friend. Amy was an amazing dog walker for the week hired. Her communication and actions were consistent and thoughtful. I was relaxed while away knowing my dog was in caring hands. I will continue booking Amy as my first choice for pet walker/ pet sitter. Five ⭐? ??”
“Heather was so wonderful while we were out of town! She came over and fed and walked our dogs. She also provided daily reports that put our minds at ease. We will definitely use Heather again!”
About: I’m a proud dog mom of two pups, Bingo (11) and Fiona (7). I’ve cared for friends’, family, and even some strangers’ pets since I was 11-12 years old. I was pet-sitting before human sitting. 😂 In the last 10 years while working in property management, I’ve helped over 50 pets find homes or reunite with their families, giving me a unique insight into pets needs and personalities. I treat every pet as my own, providing walks, playtime, snuggles, and consistent care, all while creating a safe, happy, and loving environment. Part-time schedule = plenty of pup play time! I’m available for overnight stays with or without my 2 dogs. Snuggles, walks, and lots of love included! I treat every pet as if they were my own, ensuring a safe, loving, and clean environment while you’re away. I follow your home routines closely—feeding, walking, and giving attention on schedule—and will only allow pets in areas you approve. I supervise all playtime and provide calm, positive atmosphere, making sure your pets feel comfortable, secure, and happy. I also communicate regularly with you, so you can relax knowing your pets are interested hands.

“Hannah handled my energetic, strong puppy very well! She was on time and very communicative. We had an unusual and confusing situation as our dog was in our RV in a campground and she was able to navigate that easily.”
About: After I was born, I came home to a family with dogs. I have raised one from a puppy and have always owned a dog. I have either taken care of and/or owned anywhere from a PItbull to a Yorkie and am comfortable with all well-mannered pet sizes. I am in the beginning of starting my Photography business so I am more than flexible as I continue to work from home to meet your pet's needs. I bring lots of love and also professional service to in-home visits; always trying to put leashes, etc back where they belong, refilling water bowls and feeding correct amounts of food, and making sure the pavement is not too hot for your pet's paws on daily walks! I was born and raised in St. Pete so I am very familiar with central and south-west and south-east St. Pete, Gulfport, Beaches, and South Pasadena.
“Ali is AMAZING! She was super flexible when I made schedule changes last minute and loved on my pups so well! She was very communicative and sent photos and videos with updates.

About: Having pets for over 25 years, and having done a lot of pet sitting for others, has taught me what unconditional love is. I am committed to understanding what each individual pet needs and wants and I tailor my attention to every pet accordingly. Long walks for dogs ✅ shorter walks ✅ playtime ✅ lots of cuddles ✅ no cuddles, no problem ✅ I am here to care for animals the way they like, as it is all about them. I always walk the dogs at their pace and they can stop and sniff as much as they want ❤️ Working for myself, and two days part-time outside my home, offers ample time to care for your pet, whether in your home or mine. I have a big yard for your puppers to play and take long walks everyday...I would love to have your dog along on my neighborhood treks. I also like to load them up in the truck and drive to new, unexplored parts of town...new sights and sounds and smells to keep our awareness sharp.

I’m currently in law school, which means my schedule can be flexible. perfect for fitting in walks and visits during mornings, afternoons, or evenings.

“Stephanie is fantastic with my pups. They can be a little distant around new people but they're doing awesome. So much in fact they pace around looking out the window looking for her on the days I'm home. Stephanie treats them like her own and it's a great feeling knowing what great hands they're in.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Gulfport
I’m so glad we found such an incredible dog sitter! Our pup was clearly spoiled and living his best life while we were away. The daily updates meant so much and gave us total peace of mind. Mia truly went above and beyond. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone!
Kailyn is a phenomenal dog walker who has been so flexible with us and our schedule. We hired her to help do weekly walks with our foster dog who could be a bit rowdy. She learned his routine and was able to execute it perfectly each time! We would highly recommend Kailyn for all of your pet walk/sitting needs!
Kylie and her business partner are warm amazing, people who really love animals. They walked my dog sasha daily for 2 weeks, as I recovered from surgery. They were highly responsive and communicative, and made sure sasha got taken care of and walked and return back very happy. They were also extremely responsible, because sometimes i'd have to adjust times and they would be diligent to make sure I am getting the correctly allotted time for each walk. I i highly recommend them.
Amy is fantastic - incredibly reliable, kind and wonderful to work with. My dog looks forward to every walk and visit with her, and I can always count that Charlie will be well cared for when she is with him. I recently had a family emergency that involved last minute additional support and Amy graciously stepped up to accommodate the situation while I was away. I am so grateful!
Rebeca has been a blessing to our lives! She is loving and very sweet with pur little Marco! Rebeca is professional, punctual and has the patience of a saint. I highly recommend Rebeca and give her 10 stars!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Rebeca is an absolute angel and so happy we found her on Rover!!🐾🐾

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.
Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Gulfport. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.
For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Gulfport.

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 walker 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 .
Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Gulfport. On Rover:
- 90% of walkers 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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker 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 walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers 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.
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 walker.
