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 🐾 ❤️

About: I've taken care of dogs for the last 19 years, from puppies to the senior years. The senior years are the hardest and I have experience with around the clock medication needs and potty breaks. I can provide daily walks, and I have a fine detail to any and all medication regimens. I'm currently a stay at home mom and have plenty of time to play with your doggies! I am available to board your pets anytime and any day of the week! I have a large fenced in yard and I have mature trees that provide a lot of shade in the backyard! Your pet would love to play in our backyard!

Elizabeth was amazing. She was able to come drop in on two of our dogs while we dealt with having to leave for TX for a funeral. It was the 3rd funeral within a month my family was dealing with. Elizabeth was able to come meet the dogs beforehand and they loved her. Very professional and communicative.

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. :)

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: 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!

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.

Frequently asked questions about Rover

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

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

As of August 2026, there are 250 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Gulfport. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

A pet sitter can provide focused care sessions, help your pet’s routine stay on track, or keep you updated on your pet’s mood and energy levels.

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Gulfport stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills. For daytime services like walking and drop-ins, you can also request sitters to send a report card with every visit.

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitter’s needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.

If you would like updates while you’re away, you can discuss with your sitter how many or how frequent you’d like those updates to be. The Rover app allows sitters to send photos, videos, and messages about your pet, including how many pee or poop breaks occurred. 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 personalized, in-home nature of pet care through Rover can mean more individual attention for your pet.

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.

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
  • 94% 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.

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.

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.
