“Lynsi did a great job watching my dog Fitz. She kept me updated on how he was doing throughout the visit and made sure he was safe and comfortable. Definitely recommend and would book again!”
“Lexie was awesome with my girl! She's a little older and afraid of storms so I was a bit worried, but she had a great time and Lexie was amazing with updates! Will definitely be using her again!”
“Kristin was great with my fur babies! She treated them like her own and I could tell they were completely comfortable with her! I love that she sent me pictures of them and kept me informed on how they were doing!”
“Mylayah was absolutely awesome. She accommodated my schedule without hesitation with being from out of town. My dog Xena loved the stay and was very well cared for. I would recommend Mylayah to anyone visiting or living in the Biloxi area as well as my next visit I will be hiring her again. Thank you.”
“Sarah was great at watching our two dogs over Christmas, even our large one with anxiety. She also didn't have a problem keeping them on such short notice. Definitely recommend.”
“Wonderful over all experience! Sierra had excellent communication with me the entire time. She kept me informed on how Max was doing throughout the day and sent lots of pictures.”
“I am very pleased. Dannah kept my two “boys” overnight in her home. They appear to have been well treated, exercised, medicated and fed. I will definitely ask her to watch them again if I need to be away. It was well worth the drive from Bay St Louis. Thank you, Dannah!”
“Absolutely — here’s a polished review that sounds warm and genuine: Alisha was absolutely amazing with Teddy! From the moment I dropped him off, I could tell he was going to be well cared for. She and her family made Teddy feel right at home, and it was clear from the photos that he was comfortable, relaxed, and happy throughout his stay. Alisha was also fantastic about keeping me updated and sending daily photos, which gave me great peace of mind while I was away. I truly appreciated the care, attention, and welcoming environment she provided. I would absolutely trust Alisha with Teddy again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone who will treat their dog like part of the family!”
“Pamela goes above and beyond, my pups love her! She has great communication and always keeps us updated through messages and daily photos. We are so grateful for her attentiveness and care and for Pamela being so accommodating for a last minute request. We look forward to our pups next visit with her 🐾”
“Claudia and family were great, I have a dog that needs a bit of extra attention and they kept me updated daily with pictures. My dog seemed so content with staying or leaving that I’ll definitely be using them in the future. Thank you again so much!”
“Thank you again (4th time?) Beth for taking care of the two pups! We were a little nervous leaving them for two weeks, but as always, they came back as happy as can be. I can tell she really loves my pups and knows their personalities well. We will continue to book with Beth and her daughter!”
About: I’m a dog mom to three pups of my own, so caring for dogs is already a huge part of my everyday life! I’m comfortable with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels, and I know how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pets. I’m happy to help with walks, feeding, playtime, potty breaks, and lots of attention and cuddles. I’ll treat your pets with the same patience, care, and love that I give my own. Pet care already fits naturally into my daily routine since I have three dogs of my own! I’m used to planning my day around feeding, potty breaks, walks, playtime, and making sure everyone gets plenty of attention. I work from home, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time to caring for your pets and keeping their normal routine as consistent as possible. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities! I have a fully fenced backyard with plenty of room for safe outdoor play and potty breaks, as well as three dogs of my own, so my home is very pet-friendly. I make introductions carefully and will always consider each dog’s personality and comfort level. I’m happy to follow your pet’s normal feeding, potty, sleeping, and medication routines, and dogs can be separated or crated when needed. I’ll also send plenty of pictures and updates so you can relax knowing your pet is safe, comfortable, and having a great time!
About: Animals have been part of my life for as long as I can remember. From growing up with cats and dogs to spending the last four years working with an animal rescue, caring for animals isn’t just something I do, it’s what drives me. I’ve helped care for rescue animals and pets of all personalities and needs. My goal is always the same: to make every animal feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owner is away. I'm currently working part time. I can be available in the mornings before 8am and most afternoons after 4pm. My working days change, but I am happy to fit what is needed in my schedule. I have a fenced in yard. I do have two friendly dogs whome are kenneled off and on, and 2 cats. I also foster and help care of others animals in their homes and sometimes in mine for periods of time.
“Callie is excellent!! She is very responsive and took our Shih Tzu Cooky on very short notice. She kept us updated with pictures. I knew without a doubt after leaving Cooky, she was in the best hands possible. We were able to enjoy our weekend without any worries and highly recommend Callie. Thank you Callie!”
“What a GREAT Lady. Sandy knows dogs and she definitely knows how to handle them. We will be back for sure just amazing place she has. Thank you for everything Sandy.”
About: Animals have always been a big part of my life, and I genuinely enjoy caring for them. I’ve helped foster animals and have experience caring for pets of friends, family, and neighbors. Whether it’s feeding, walking, playtime, administering basic routines, or simply providing companionship, I treat every pet with patience, kindness, and respect. I understand that every animal has its own personality and needs, so I take the time to make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. You can count on me to communicate regularly, follow your instructions carefully, and care for your pet as if they were my own. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in dependable hands. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. My dog, Benji, keeps me active with daily walks, playtime, and outdoor activities. I have a flexible schedule, allowing me to provide reliable care, regular potty breaks, exercise, feeding, and plenty of attention to every pet I care for. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. Benji and I enjoy daily walks and visits to dog parks, and we have the luxury of a large, fenced backyard where dogs can safely run and play. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I’ll follow your routines, respect your instructions, provide lots of love and attention, and send regular photo and video updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
“I was a bit anxious at first leaving Bubba with a complete stranger, but Scott was great during our meet and greet with him and I knew they would get along fine and Scott would take good care of him. Scott was conscientious about taking notes on how much to feed and when, potty habits, quirks I thought he needed to know. He provided me pictures everyday and I was pleased to see that Bubba got plenty of exercise while I was gone. I definitely plan to use Scott again. Thanks for a great experience.”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Gulfport
We needed someone to sit our girl while we traveled to get married and for our honeymoon and I’m so glad we found Sarah! Our puppy immediately felt safe with her, and Sarah sent a few pictures throughout her stay. She went above and beyond to make sure our Sundae was comfortable and that means a lot to us. Fast to reply too!
After having a surgery come up, I contacted a sitter I had never used. We met up and let our kid's play together. Everyone got along and she was super easy to get along with as well. I took the pups over to a very clean house and they seemed to have a great time while I was in the hospital. She dropped them off at the gate, plenty of conversation and pics during the stay, would DEF choose again!

Every sitter on Rover has their own routine. Depending on the arrangements you agree on before the stay, a sitter can follow your dog’s regular feeding schedule, provide a comfortable place to sleep, offer companionship, and support their usual exercise and play needs.
91% of sitters in Gulfport can provide daily exercise during dog boarding stays. Depending on the sitter, their home environment, and your dog’s needs, this may include walks, outdoor play, indoor enrichment activities, or supervised play with compatible dogs. These activities are not automatically included with every booking, so ask the sitter what a typical day looks like.
During the Meet & Greet, discuss your dog’s usual exercise and play routine, whether they can safely interact with other dogs, and any activities or restrictions the sitter should follow. You can also ask the sitter to send photo and message updates during the stay so you can see how your dog is spending their time.
Preparing for drop-off is easy when you have a checklist! To help your dog settle into their Gulfport home-away-from-home, we recommend packing:
- Health and safety essentials such as their ID tags, vaccination records, medication, and emergency vet or secondary caregiver contacts.
- Food and gear such as harnesses, collars, food (portioned by day), and an item that smells like you.
- Special instructions such as a list of training cues, medical administration needs, or favorite hang-out spots in your Gulfport.
<b>Tip:</b> You can upload your dog’s routine and medical info directly onto their profile so your sitter always has the details at their fingertips.
You and your Gulfport sitter can schedule drop-off and pick-up in a way that works best for the both of you—and your dog. Most sitters offer flexible times for drop-off and pick-up but the easiest way to confirm those times will be through in-app messaging. Confirm your arrival time the day of pick-up and drop-off can also help keep the process smooth and organized.
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 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 MS ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
If a health concern arises during a stay, your sitter is instructed to contact you and our Trust & Safety team immediately and, if needed, take your dog to the closest veterinarian. Through our Trust & Safety support team, sitters can ask for diagnostic advice from a qualified veterinary professional if your dog is showing signs of possible illness.
For extra peace of mind, you can also prepare an authorization form for your regular vet. An authorization form outlines your preferred method of care and allows your sitter to bring your pet into their regular clinic.
Every qualified booking made on Rover is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes reimbursement for eligible emergency vet care.
