About: I have dog sat for many years now for 3 toy poodles and the occasional Yorkie. I’ve given lots of love, baths, attempted grooming, and given them lessons in Spanish. Not only that, I’ve also owned cats for the better part of 11 years. Currently am not working, so I have plenty of time to spend with your fur babies! I am available primarily Monday-Friday and can drop in to check on your fur family from 7 AM - 6 PM. I am very punctual in taking dogs outside for potty time and during feeding time. Because I do not have a fenced in yard, I am unable to care for larger dogs. I tend to have many petting sessions and napping sessions with the dogs I care for and will do the same for your furry companions.

I worked in a veterinary clinic for 1.5 years and have hands-on experience with cats and dogs of all ages. I can feed on whatever schedule you prefer and can also administer any routine medications for your pet. I’m currently a full-time Master’s student trying to finish my degree. I’m available most days and times and can make most things work with enough notice. I have a fenced in yard and three dogs, four cats, and thirty-eight chickens.

About: I have cared for all sorts of animals growing up such as dogs, cats, horses, and chickens. We have a pet pot belly pig, Dumplin, who I've taught a few tricks 😊. I have trained a few dogs (puppy-adult) however I am not a certified/professional trainer; I just have a passion for connecting with dogs. If your pet needs someone to stop by to interact with, let out to potty, give medication, walk, brush, etc. then look no further. I will be happy to help! I currently work a full-time job, so as of right now I'm available on the weekends. I would be open to drop in after work if need be.

About: I’m a lifelong pet lover with years of experience caring for dogs of all ages, including my own senior dog whom I’ve raised since he was a puppy. Over the years, I’ve cared for several different breeds and temperaments, and I’m comfortable providing calm, reliable support tailored to each pet’s needs. Your furry family member will always be in gentle, attentive hands. Pet care naturally fits into my daily routine because I’m already used to caring for my own senior dog every day. I plan my mornings and evenings around feeding, walks, and check-ins, and I’m consistent with giving pets the attention and comfort they need. Throughout the week, I make time for play, potty breaks, and any special care instructions. Whether it’s sticking to a schedule or offering extra cuddles, I’m flexible and dedicated to keeping pets happy and comfortable. When pets are in my home, I make sure they have a comfortable and safe space to relax, plenty of attention, and a routine that feels familiar to them. I keep a clean environment, follow their feeding and medication schedules, and make time for walks, play, and quiet moments. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I’m respectful of their space and follow all instructions exactly as given. I stick to the pet’s normal routine, keep their area tidy, and make sure they feel calm, cared for, and comfortable while their owner is away!
“As always, Rebekah rose to the occasion. Had to work late while watching my parents’ dog for the week and that meant a last minute booking. Rebekah took excellent care of Rhein and Remi. They’re always happy to see her and it puts me at ease that someone I trust has checked on them. Love how she takes tons of pictures so I get to see my dog smiling and calm. Thank you, Rebekah!”

Whether you’re at the office for the day or traveling for a few nights, a pet sitter can offer potty breaks during a Hattiesburg stroll, cleaning the litter box, or making sure your pet has on-time food or water refills.

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.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Hattiesburg choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
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.

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.
While Rover doesn’t offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
To find sitters in Hattiesburg with recurring or weekly availability, select "Repeat Weekly" and which days you’d like them to care for your pet.
Yes, you can find sitters who have experience administering medication or managing dietary requirements. You can also find pet sitters who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies 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 request a 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.
