About: With five years of pet-sitting experience and 18 years caring for my own dog, I offer dependable, respectful in-home care. As a law student with a flexible schedule, I’m able to give pets consistent companionship, gentle handling, and a safe routine while you’re away. I’m free most weekends, and my weekday schedule is somewhat flexible. I am in class Mondays from 1PM-3PM, Tuesdays from 1PM-5PM, Wednesdays from 10AM-3PM, Thursdays from 1PM-5PM, and Fridays from 10AM-12PM. I just moved to the area, but I’ve been pet sitting for years. My own dog recently passed, so I really appreciate any chance to spend time with pups. They’re the best study partners, and I’m always happy to give them company and love. I follow your pet’s routine exactly and keep your home secure while you’re away. Clear communication, safety-first habits, and gentle handling are my priorities. Your pets stay comfortable, your home stays respected.
“Gerard is a great addition to Buster’s village! He is easy to work with & works with the a changing weekly schedule to provide Buster the attention & exercise he needs. He was open to the videos we sent on the systems Buster has been trained in. Buster is a strong young boy who can be stubborn & Gerard can mange him and live him both! We recommend Girard!”
“Hannah was great! When we returned our Labrador was happy and content, it was obvious to us that she had a nice time with Hannah. Thank you Hannah for taking good care of our Frankie!”
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.

“Scott is amazing with our poodle, Birdie. We just adopted her two months ago, and he has gone above and beyond to earn her trust. As a poodle parent himself, he has given me training tips and pointers and helped me help her get settled in. The care he shows for her is obvious, and my shy, standoffish has warmed up to him easily. Thanks, Scott!”
About: I am available to care for your animals in your own home. I have many references of house sitting, as that is my speciality. I have experience with short stays of house sitting and have stayed lengthy times as long as five week stints. I have had animals my entire life since I was a little girl, and love being able to take care of animals when their owners leave for travel. I usually watch dogs and cats but also have experience with horses and reptiles. I treat your animals like I do my own, lots of snuggles, brushing and care. I have experience with senior dogs as well as puppies and if they require medication I can administer that no problem. Please reach out with any questions!
“Devin is a lifesaver! A good friend to our aging pitbull terrier, buddy. Very accommodating and flexible. Reasonable rates… I just wish the app would let us tip more!!! I live in California while buddy lives with my older mom. He’s such a strong dog and she can’t give him the exercise he needs. Very thankful for his service.!!! always friendly and prompt… A good fellow that genuinely cares about your animals.”
“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. I had no fears having Ali come over and take my crazy dogs for a walk while I was away at work. I will definitely be rebooking, thanks again Ali!!”
About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for many years and have a 10-year-old dog of my own, Bella, who is truly part of my family. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your pet, and I treat every animal with the same patience and respect I give my own. I work from home, which allows me to provide consistent supervision and attention throughout the day. Pets in my care are never left alone for long periods and always have someone present to monitor their safety and comfort. I also have a large, secure backyard where dogs can safely play and burn off energy in addition to regular walks. Whether your pet prefers active playtime or a calm, relaxed environment, I adapt to their personality and needs. I’m calm, attentive, and dependable, and especially good with pets who benefit from a steady presence. I follow instructions carefully, maintain routines, and am comfortable with feeding schedules, litter care, walks, medication reminders, and companionship. I also have personal experience caring for a senior dog with age-related cognitive decline. That experience taught me patience, consistency, and the importance of gentle reassurance for older pets. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, understood, and at home while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I already structure my days around consistent walks, feeding schedules, and check-ins with my own dog. I work from home, so I’m able to be flexible with timing and provide reliable supervision throughout the day. I’m punctual, responsive, and I communicate clearly so pet parents always know how their pets are doing. I treat every home and pet with the same care and respect I give my own. I follow instructions closely, keep routines consistent, and prioritize safety, cleanliness, and calm energy. I work from home, so pets aren’t left alone for long stretches. I also have a large backyard for safe outdoor time (always supervised), and I’m attentive to behavior cues so pets stay comfortable and secure.
Gulfport dog parents share their Rover experiences
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.
I couldn’t be happier with the care Joli provided for my dog and cat. She was very communicative and professional, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. When I came home, Samson and Winnie seemed happy and cared for. Highly recommend Joli for your persisting needs.
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!!🐾🐾
