“Jo is absolutely amazing and a Godsend for me. She and my dog bonded immediately. Jo came and check on my baby a couple of times while I was gone on a day trip. She timed her visits perfectly and spent time with my dog to give him some time out of his crate. I highly recommend Jo. She truly cares about animals.”
About: My family raised dogs growing up and I’ve taken care of my own dog plus roommates dogs on a regular basis (whenever at work, out of town, or on drill) for the past 5+ years. I cared for my friend’s dog for a year while deployed. I may not look like it but I have also handled big dogs and can hold my own. I am currently not working and have a wide open schedule. I am open for dropping by or walking whenever needed. Just let me know! I keep the environment clean, make sure they have access to water, eat the appropriate amount of food per day, frequent potty breaks/ litter box cleaning, and make sure they have playtime everyday
“We are on vacation and had Laurie come over and meet our rescue dogs before her visit. The dogs immediately felt at ease with her and provided us comfort to leave them. I would reccomend Laurie for any of your needs through Rover. Thanks again!”
“Shannon did weekday drop in visits for my 2 pit bulls for about 4 months. She exceeded my expectations in every way. My dogs arent easy, one is timid after trauma from a previous owner and the other is an escape artist. Plus, they have to be separated for safety reasons. Shannon handled all of these difficulties like a true professional. It was really great to see my dog slowly come out of her shell with Shannon, which is a testament to her patience and love for animals. She was extremely reliable, and I always knew my dogs were in good hands.”
About: I have been working as a licensed veterinary technician for 7 years. I have experience taking care of healthy and sick pets. I can administer medications as needed, as well as tell when your baby needs extra love and attention. I work full time, but I can take care of your pets before and after work. I have one day off during the week, so I can spend some extra time with them then. I pick up after myself, so I am careful not to leave harmful things around, I put medications away, and I will put vulnerable medications back in the fridge.
“We had a wonderful experience with Aramy over the weekend. She cared for our two cats and dog through several drop-in visits each day, and everything went smoothly. Her communication was thoughtful and frequent—she kept us updated with messages and photos, which gave us great peace of mind while we were away. She was also consistently punctual and clearly attentive to our pets’ needs. We returned home to happy animals and a house just as we left it. I would gladly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter. 🐾”
“Great communication. My babies love her. Just booked for my dog, but she gives my cat all the love. Great pics of my boy even though he's a wiggle butt. Madison is very flexible with my work schedule.”
“Grace did an amazing job with our 2 crazy dogs, we were super nervous because we’ve used the same dog sitter for 10 years so this was the first time leaving our dogs with somebody we didn’t know but she put us at ease. She done an amazing job. Dogs are healthy. Hopefully we’ll be able to use her every time we need a dog sitter.”

About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and grew up in a household with five dogs and three cats, so caring for pets has always been a part of my daily routine.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Cat Sitting in Ocean Springs on Rover is $18.87 per visit (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.
Rover makes budgeting the cost of Cat 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 Cat Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .
As of July 2026, there are 100 sitters on Rover offering Cat Sitting across Ocean Springs. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
Cat sitters on Rover care for your cats’ needs and can spend quality time with them, including activities like feeding, playing, and refreshing their water and litter boxes. Depending on your arrangement, you can schedule as many visits per day as your cat needs or find a sitter who can stay at your house overnight. Some sitters also board cats in their home.
House sitting can be ideal for cats who need socialization or care that lasts longer than a few hours. Your cat stays in their own home, on their own schedule, with care based on what you and your sitter agree on together.
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.
A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your cat, 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, you can find sitters who have experience with handling special pet needs in Ocean Springs. On Rover:

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.
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.
