“Malia has genuinely saved my life this summer. Getting a puppy in the busiest part of my season with my partner away wasn’t our smartest move but we just knew we’d never find another one like Bear and had to have him. He’s well crate trained and Malia pops over during the shifts I can’t have a family member over to let him out and play with him till I get home. This weekend she she watched him while I put in twenty four hours at work and it was such a weight off my mind knowing he was being so well taken care of. She’s a great communicator and sends photo updates and he’s just grinning away. I literally don’t have the words to express how grateful we are for her and the care she takes of our fur baby.”

“What a delightful experience. Two days of daycare and my six month old doodle was pulling at the leash to get to Patricia! Lots of communication and she clearly has a love for animals! Her neighborhood was fabulous and offered a great safe place for walking! She treated my dog like she was her own and I would highly recommend her and would feel safe leaving my puppy there for a more extended visit as well!”

About: Hello! My name is Nicole, and I’m a dedicated pet sitter / walker with over 10 years of experience caring for animals of all sizes and personalities. From household pets to farm animals, I’ve had the privilege of working with dogs, cats, horses, cows, pigs, and many others. Whether your companion is small and snuggly or large and spirited, I’m comfortable and confident providing the attentive care they deserve. I am CPR certified and experienced in administering medications and basic treatments, ensuring your animals stay healthy, safe, and comfortable while you’re away. My goal is to offer reliable, compassionate care and peace of mind so you know your loved ones are in good hands. I look forward to meeting you and your animals! Your pet will enjoy plenty of company and attention while staying with me! Someone is home in my household almost all day, with the exception of about four hours, so your pet will never be left alone for long periods. This means frequent bathroom breaks, regular feeding times, and lots of love, supervision, and attention throughout the day.

My home provides a secure, welcoming environment where animals can relax, play, and enjoy their time away from home. I have a small fenced-in yard, perfect for safe outdoor time, quick potty breaks, and supervised play. For pups who love to run and explore, there’s also a dog park right in my community, giving them extra space and opportunities for fun, exercise, and socialization (based on your comfort level). Inside, pets have access to plenty of toys, cozy spots to rest, and a calm environment where they can feel at ease. I offer frequent walks and outdoor time throughout the day to make sure they stay active, stimulated, and happy.

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Gulfport commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
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.
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 dog, 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, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 81 sitters in Gulfport, 89% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
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.
