“Jessica was very responsive to my inquiry and easy to work and scedule with! I really appreciate her being available last minute. Also, I allowed her to bring her daughter, and I could tell from all the pictures that our kitten absolutely loved playing with them both. It seems like he got plenty of attention, and their love for animals is totally apparent. I had no worries leaving our fur baby in their care. :)”
“It was a pleasure having Scott look in on my fur babies. He was very attentive and caring taking extra time out of his day to spend with them. I recommend Scott and will definitely call on him again.”
“Wow, Emalee G. did a fantastic job! We went on a long cruise and I did not worry about our cat one time. Every day she sent us pictures and updates! I will call her again the next time we leave town!”
“I can't say enough how awesome our experience was. Lexie was able to help go above and beyond to help us. We were out of town and had a bad experience with another sitter. Lexie went to our apartment and met our 90lb shephard/rottie mix and was able to calm her down and care for her for a few days with no issues. I got constant good communication with pictures with her before and after each visit. Lexie was even kind enough to check on Shadow after we returned home. HIGHLY recommend her! I will rebook with for our next trip.”

About: Hi! I’m Elizabeth, a current veterinary technician with years of hands-on experience caring for animals of all sizes and personalities. Working in a veterinary clinic has given me strong skills in handling pets safely, recognizing signs of illness, and keeping animals calm and comfortable. Whether your pet is young and energetic or older and needs extra care, I’m confident and comfortable meeting their needs. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine! I work full days Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday, so I’m available for early morning, evening, and nighttime care on those days. I’m completely off on Tuesdays and weekends, which allows for full-day availability, longer visits, or overnight stays. On Fridays, I’m available after 2 PM for walks, drop-ins, or extended care. I’m great at planning my schedule ahead of time to make sure every pet gets the attention, consistency, and care they need. I will not be accepting pets in my own home at this time, as I have two kittens of my own in a small apartment! I just wouldn’t have much space to bring in a pet, and for everyone’s safety, I don’t want to introduce a new pet and risk anything happening. I can do anything you require! From walks, to medication administration, I’m well versed in everything! I’m also okay with spending the night at a clients home, to make sure your babies don’t get lonely!
“I couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter than Jessica. She did an excellent job caring for our very spoiled dogs while we were out of town. She kept us informed about scheduled visits and their care the entire time. She went about and beyond in many ways and we will be requesting her again! Thank you!”
About: I have a personal passion for animals, and have taken care of everything from fish to horses since I was a child! I also have over 3 years of experience as a veterinary technician, so I can assure you that your dogs and/or kitties will be in good hands! I work from home, and make my own schedule, so I will have plenty of time for any and all of your needs! Even if it's last minute, please don't hesitate to reach out! I live in a very quiet neighborhood that is wonderful for walks and lots of space to play! I believe in treating your pets like my own! I have a golden retriever mix if your pup ever needs company!

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Gulfport on Rover is $18.87 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
Many pet parents provide a spare key or arrange a lockbox. You can also exchange keys during the Meet & Greet and show your walker how to use digital fobs or personalized codes. It helps to arrange access to your home, from spare keys to concierge introductions, before pet care begins.
If you live in an apartment or condo, don’t forget to discuss details like buzzer access, codes, or elevator etiquette. These details can help a pet sitter feel more comfortable going in and out of your building.
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 .
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 cat, 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.

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.
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 sitter.
