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.

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. :)

Lexie is very reliable and was great with my 2 kitties. Silas warmed up to her quickly and followed her around as she fed, watered and cleaned out the litter box. She was patient with my newly adopted Fluffy who is shy with new people. Everything was in great shape when I arrived home after 6 days. 😺

About: Along with my years of experience in caring for my own pets (dogs and cats), I have also fostered puppies and kittens. I enjoy spending time with animals and make sure they are well taken care of. I currently work from home and set my own schedule, so my schedule is flexible. There are various times through the week and weekend I am available to take care of your beloved pets! I am always alert to the needs of my cat, whether she needs food, water, her litter changed, or wants to play. Whatever animal you may have, I will have them the attention and care they need, through playing, walking, feeding, etc. (Just like you would :))

About: Hi! I’m Marlee, and caring for animals has always been one of the happiest parts of my life. Whether your pet loves long walks, endless playtime, or just wants someone to cuddle with while you’re away, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable. I spent many years of my childhood helping my grandmother with her show dogs. We traveled the country to many dog shows and I would assist her with caring for the dogs and prepping them for show days. I also pet sat all through college meeting and caring for many different types of dogs and cats as well as fish, lizards, and even a parrot! I also have 4 cats of my own that rule my life so I understand how stressful it can be to leave your pets with someone else. I treat every animal as if they were my own. I’m patient, attentive, and committed to following your pet’s routine as closely as possible, from feeding schedules and medications to favorite toys and bedtime rituals. You can expect plenty of photo updates and messages while you’re away for complete peace of mind. I have experience caring for cats and dogs with a variety of personalities, from energetic puppies to shy cats and senior pets who need a little extra patience. I’m comfortable with walks, drop in visits, overnight stays, administering basic medications, cleaning litter boxes, and making sure your home is left just as I found it. My goal is simple: for your pets to feel like they’re spending time with a friend, and for you to be able to enjoy your time away knowing they’re in caring, reliable hands. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry family! As of now, I have stepped away from service industry life and back into pet sitting life - a MUCH more fulfilling career choice. I also teach yoga part time which gives me a very flexible schedule, I set my own hours and class times. This means every second that your pet needs me I will be there with bells on - and treats in hand! Whether your pet is hanging out at my place or I’m caring for them in their home turf, they’ll get all the love, snuggles, and attention they deserve (and probably a few too many photos). In your home, I stick to your pet’s regular routine as closely as possible—feeding times, walks, meds, favorite toys, quirky habits, you name it. I want them to feel totally safe and stress-free while you're away. I’m super respectful of your space, and I leave things just as tidy (or tidier!) as I found them. In my home, pets get a comfy, cozy space with room to play, nap, and be their adorable selves. I make sure they’re never bored or lonely, and I tailor the experience to match their energy—whether they’re a couch potato or a zoomie machine. I have a fenced in yard so they ca have supervised outdoor explorations and all animals are welcomed to snuggle in my bed - if they want to! And of course, you’ll get regular updates, photos, and maybe a goofy video or two, so you always know your furry friend is doing great.

Nicole was wonderful. I needed last minute assistance for my pup and she had no issues working within my short timeline. She did a meet and greet the next day. And kept me posted while I was gone. Even made a special trip to ensure my pup was taken care of. Will be using her again for sure!

Theresa really helped me out in a pinch, and right around the holidays too! She is friendly and easy-going, punctual, and reliable. She showed up at the requested times each day, provided pics and a note, and all for a very reasonable rate (especially compared to some of the exorbitant rates on here!). Book her today - you won't be disappointed!

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Cat Sitting in Gulfport on Rover is $17.76 per visit (as of September 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat Sitting 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 Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of September 2026, there are 98 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Gulfport. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

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.

Yes, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Gulfport. On Rover:

  • 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 100% 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.

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.
