“Charles was a fantastic sitter for my dog Carter during our weekend trip to Waveland, MS. He kept us updated with photos throughout the stay, which gave us peace of mind. Carter got plenty of fresh air with daily walks through Charles’ wooded neighborhood and even a fun outing to the local farmers market. We’ll definitely be booking with Charles again if we come to town.”
“Sandy was fantastic. She took excellent care of my dog while also providing constant updates and pictures. Communication was great. Would recommend her services and would be happy to book with her again.”
“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!”
“Donna was amazing with my girl. I have an older Shiba and they can be particular little dogs. She kept her entertained and comfortable the entire time. Regular picture updates and a very happy dog when I came home. 10/10”
“Angela took great care of Kian! She sent me plenty of pictures, took him for long walks, and made sure his stay felt like a vacation too! I’ll absolutely be booking with her in the future.”
“Rachel and her family took amazing care of a mama cat and four babies we rescued from a shipyard. She was accommodating, responsive, and clearly loves to take care of animals. Could not recommend anyone more and would absolutely use again in the future.”
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.
“Dianne took great care of our pup! Drop off and pick up we’re easily scheduled and our pup came home happy and well cared for! Dianne sent pictures and was easy to communicate with!”
About: I go beyond basic pet care to offer personalized attention tailored to your dog’s unique needs. Whether it’s training playful puppies, providing gentle care for senior dogs, or managing special dietary and medical routines, I ensure your furry friend feels loved and secure. With years of experience and a deep passion for animals, I treat every pet as if they were my own , offering not just care, but companionship and fun. I’m definitely working full time and I do have a lot of free time, so i could take care of your furry friend! weekends and weekdays :) I have a fenced backyard, and I do have a puppy who could give your furry friend a company. And I will ensure that your furry friend is cared for.
“We had a great experience booking with Jecinda! As a first-time puppy owner, I was hesitant to leave her in a new environment with new faces, however we didn’t face any of those problems. The entire process was organized and catered the needs of our pup and us! I would certainly recommend Jecinda for any pet needs because she is greatly experienced, kind, and accommodating to any needs!”
About: Pets (and working animals) have always been in my life. Currently I do have dogs of my own and always have. Moved to the city and sure do miss my goats, chickens and most of all my potbellies that couldn't come 😭 My father was an animal scientist and I've been around animals of all sorts since the day I was born. I'm a stay at home mom with my youngest at 11 years old. My entire day is free! If I'm not caring or playing with a four legged friend or two webbed feet I'm not having fun! Safety for your pet is most important. Playtime would be wherever you request whether it be your own backyard, walked on a leash, dog park or inside playtime. Your pet will be treated with the utmost care with lots of fun with the safety of him/her always in mind.
“Cierra was fantastic! She sent me daily pictures of Mulata our dog and was very communicative. Very easy going and I highly recommend Cierra. Mulata got a long great with her puppy too so everything was great!”
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.
About: I have always had pets of my own my entire life. I am also the go to dog walker, kitty sitter, and fish feeder in my neighborhood. With my medical skills ( with specific instruction from you) I can administer pills and medications as needed. I am highly responsible and will treat your fur babies with much love and follow your routines to keep them happy. I am happy to take them for many walks and play as much ball as they would like:) As a homeowner and pet owner myself. I can appreciate also that leaving your pets in the care of a stranger can be nerve wracking. I will treat your home and pets with the same care and respect I give mine. Since I’m retired, I have the flexibility and availability to give your pets the attention, companionship, and care they deserve throughout the day. Whether your dog loves playtime, walks, cuddles or simply having someone nearby. I will make sure they feel comfortable and cared for as if they were my own. Your pup will be treated like family in my home. I have a large fenced-in yard for safe playtime, they are welcome to my entire home—no being confined to a kennel unless that’s what they are used to and prefer. They will always be treated like one of my own 🐾 ❤️

Pet parents share their Rover experiences - Gulfport
Jessica was so sweet to my two baby cat boys, Taka and Mocha. I was initially concerned about their reaction to her cats and dogs, but everything went smoothly. I loved getting many photo and video updates of my fur babies. She was great at giving my cat his medicine, despite his skittishness. I’m so glad to have my babies back, and would book again without hesitation.

There are 112 sitters on Rover for Pet Boarding in Gulfport. About 95% 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.

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 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 MS 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.
