Sandra was amazing. I felt so comfortable with Ella staying with her. She was responsive and sent pictures. She has a very great and safe set up for the dogs she watches and accommodated all the needs I had for Ella. Will definitely use her again. Thank you (:

Dian was great. She has a peaceful home, a beautiful and secure backyard, and a gentle demeanor. She and her small pup, Bitsy, were very welcoming. I'm very happy with the care Buddy received during his stay.

Alyssa and her pup Ace are amazing! I could tell by the many pics and updates Alyssa sent me that my toy poodle Pino was very comfortable and happy during his stay. So much so that I was a little afraid he might not want to come home! Definitely a 5 star experience!

Daniel was fantastic! This was our first time using Rover and because of this experience we will be using it again when needed. He was extremely attentive to our dog, he walked with him, played with him and our dog made new dog friends. He also sent pictures everyday which made us super comfortable and we could see the great care Kemba was receiving. Daniel was easy to work with, very communicative and flexible with our situation. We are very grateful!

Beverly was kind enough to take a last minute reservation. I was able to do a meet and greet with her dog Opal and my dog Zena. They both got along well. Beverly was great with providing pictures and updates. Her yard is perfect as it is fully fenced in. I would definitely recommend Beverly. Zena was relaxed and happy when I came to get her.

Highly recommend Jaime to watch your dog and/or visit your cat while away! I was fortunate enough to find Jaime for our most recent trip to watch our dog Kodi (13 Year Old Lab/Aussie Mix) and to visit our cat Louis (6 Year Old Bengal) during our trip. Jaime was very responsive, sent updates, and is a knowledgeable/aware sitter. Her home is great for pets as well. Kodi seemed to have a great time with her and we’ll look forward to having her stay again.

Venus took wonderful care of my puppy (JumO). I liked that my dog got along so nicely with her two dogs. I was concerned because my dog is a puppy and is overactive and a little unruly — those concerns were alleviated. I would recommend Venus as a sitter to anyone. She is professional, caring and very knowledgeable about dogs and cats. I will send my puppy to Venus when a sitter is next needed.

This was my first time leaving Gumbo for an extended period, and Erica made the entire experience stress-free. She sent daily updates, kept open communication, and checked in anytime something needed clarification. I always felt he was in good hands. The best part? As we were leaving, Gumbo gave her a snuggly goodbye—proof that he was loved and cared for. He truly had the best pupcation! I will absolutely book with Erica again and again for my fur baby.

Amy was a great sitter for our dog, Theo, while we were away on vacation! She was easy to work with, sent great photos and updates, and even bought Theo a ball that she sent him home with. He has played with that ball daily! Her dog and Theo got along well too. We will definitely consider her again for our future needs. We're happy to have found her!

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!

I’m so appreciative of how communicative Ruthie was throughout our fur baby’s stay! From the initial meet-and-greet with her dog, Pete, I immediately felt comfortable and confident having Ruthie care for Luna. Our dogs got along so well, and it was reassuring knowing Luna was in such a welcoming and loving environment. Ruthie kept us updated throughout her stay, which made being away from her so much easier. I would absolutely recommend Ruthie to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and caring to look after their fur baby. We would happily have Luna stay with her again!

Tribe was soooo excited when we arrived at Aunt Molly’s house and didn’t want to leave when I picked him up! She loves him like her own which gives me such peace of mind while I’m away. Olive is such a sweet girl! So very patient with Tribe and always makes sure he comes home exhausted from all the play! 🐶🐕‍🦺

As first-time clients, we really appreciated how communicative and thoughtful she was throughout the weekend. She sent regular updates and photos, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. It was clear that Uecker was well cared for, comfortable, and getting plenty of love and attention. We’d absolutely book with Jennifer again and highly recommend her to anyone!

FAQs for Boarding - Gulfport

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet 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 Pet 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 Pet Boarding. For more information on service fees, click here .

There are 3,149 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Gulfport. About 91% of Gulfport sitters can respond to requests in under 60 minutes. Whether you’re planning ahead for holidays, need last-minute care, or need same-day coverage for an urgent trip, you can message multiple sitters at once to find available care.

Once you find the right match, you can arrange a Meet & Greet to ensure they are a perfect fit for your pet’s personality before confirming.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. You can message your sitter at any time through the app and our support team is available 24/7 by email or chat if you have concerns.

The personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

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.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your pet, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter 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 sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters 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.

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. Cats may be required to have Feline Viral Rhinotracheitis and Rabies up to date.

By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.

Emergency support is available by phone or email in English 24/7. When an incident occurs, we recommend that sitters contact our Trust & Safety team immediately so that they can connect your sitter with a board-certified veterinarian or offer other resources to help.

If a sitter needs to cancel at the last minute, Rover’s reservation protection means our team will work with you to find a suitable replacement as quickly as possible.
