About: I’ve had a dog since I was 5. I’ve lived with other dogs and cats since, but I currently live with just one dog that I frequently play with. I’m currently working part time and hope to work with dogs/ cats in my spare time. I particularly like dog walking/ checking up on as I’ve had dogs my whole life. I have a fenced in yard and take my dog on walks on occasion. I also enjoy playing in the backyard with my dog with bubbles and some balls.

About: Ever since I was little, I've been raised around and myself raised dogs; starting with my family breeding CKC rat terriers, then rescuing an abused German shepherd, to my current dog being a Yorkie, I'm comfortable around dogs of all shapes and sizes. While not certified, I am working with clicker training my Yorkie and I can usually teach basic obedience commands; I am also comfortable with attempting to reinforce any behaviors you are trying to teach. I currently am not working but am a live-in helper for my grandmother. Besides taking her shopping and to appointments, I'm pretty open through out weekdays and weekends. While I am offering walking services mainly, I am comfortable following any instructions you might have for if I have to enter your home either to stay a few hours or just stop by for feedings and potty breaks. While I consider myself able to handle larger dogs, I cannot handle poorly trained large dogs that will drag me and dislocate my shoulder. If you are training the dog to walk more calmly on a leash, I feel comfortable reinforcing your training if it is safe to do so.

Alexis is a gem! She did a fabulous job during her drop in visits with my two cats. She even managed to bond with my very shy and skittish cat, Jane. So much so she was able to sit next to Jane and pet her. Alexis is a legitimate cat whisperer!

About: Hi! My name is Kiari, and I am a healthcare professional and lifelong animal lover. As the owner of six cats and one dog, caring for animals is a part of my everyday life. Many of my pets are rescues, which has given me experience with a wide range of personalities, temperaments, and care needs. I understand that every pet is unique and deserves patience, compassion, and individualized attention. I offer dependable drop-in visits and dog walking services. Whether your pet needs feeding, fresh water, a walk, playtime, litter box care, medication reminders, or simply extra love and attention, I will care for them as if they were my own. Working in healthcare has strengthened my attention to detail, reliability, and communication skills. I am happy to provide updates and photos during every visit so you can have peace of mind while you’re away. I am available for evening visits during the week and flexible weekend care. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! Pet care is already a big part of my daily routine as the owner of six cats and one dog. I work in healthcare and am available for evening visits during the week, as well as flexible availability on Saturdays. I understand the importance of consistency and reliability and will always make sure your pets receive the care, attention, and companionship they need while you’re away. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I carefully follow all care instructions, including feeding schedules, medications, exercise routines, and household preferences. Working in healthcare has strengthened my attention to detail and ability to remain calm and dependable in any situation. During visits, I provide updates and photos so you can feel confident that your pet is safe, happy, and receiving the same level of care I would want for my own animals.

About: I've been pet sitting since I was in high school, grew up with a dog (a Westie) and now have three cats of my own. I'm in grad school so I've moved around a lot and nearly every person I've lived with has owned pets, so I'm familiar with many breeds! I'm a grad student working remote most days, making me flexible and available to accommodate your pet’s needs as required. Whether your pet requires walks, playtime, or special care, I can adapt my routine to provide reliable and attentive support. While I cannot offer pet care in my home (we've already got too many legs!), in your home I am flexible to work with your needs and follow care instructions, ensuring your pets feel secure and happy.

Theresa really helped me out in a pinch, and right around the holidays too! She is friendly and easy-going, punctual, and reliable. She showed up at the requested times each day, provided pics and a note, and all for a very reasonable rate (especially compared to some of the exorbitant rates on here!). Book her today - you won't be disappointed!

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 🐾 ❤️

Not everyone signs on to work on Christmas but Gabby did and we were appreciative. The girls (dogs) were happy when we returned but not stressed or anxious so we knew they were comfortable with Gabby being there for them. We had medicine to administer and Bailey got hers right on time. We are thankful to have found Gabby!

Nicole was wonderful. I needed last minute assistance for my pup and she had no issues working within my short timeline. She did a meet and greet the next day. And kept me posted while I was gone. Even made a special trip to ensure my pup was taken care of. Will be using her again for sure!

About: I have had dogs most of my life. I had my Lola 14 years. She was my travel buddy and my best friend. We swam in the Atlantic, the Pacific and the Mediterranean. I have no problem with breed, I have been around many breeds and have love for all of them. I play music 2-3 nights per week and work from home, so I can do lots of potty breaks and walks throughout the day. Also, able to give medications throughout the day. I have had well trained dogs and love working with them. I will take good care of your puppies and rub your older dogs hips. 😊 I work weekend nights playing music. I do voiceover work from home. I wake up early I have a very open schedule and am available anytime. We have three cats where I live. I play with them and they wait outside my door every morning. They love me because I’m allergic. 😃 I like breaking up the day, so we will all have lots of walks and play time. I am detail oriented and will follow your instructions while loving your fur babies like my own.

About: I've always loved animals. Went many years without a dog but took I a 8 year old dog last year who was being gotten rid of and my world changed. I love him with all my might. I would love to spend time with other animals as well. I want to focus on weekend boarding. Very home bodied so your pet will be with me 90 percent of the time and have little time alone. Want to give them a good experience while you are away. I do not have a yard but we take frequent trips outside and to the dog park where I live at through out the day. We spend most of our free time on the couch cuddling!

About: I’ve taken care of my neighbors pets over the past couple of years, as well as my grandmas pets and occasionally family friends and others. I am currently working part-time at a child care facility in the evenings from 3-8pm. For the summer, I am available any day at any time other than those five hours of the evening. Even then, I am not scheduled for work every day. I like to be actively involved in caring for pets, ensuring maximum comfort and security for them! I’m extremely patient, so if your pet needs a bit of warming up first, I will provide that needed space and take things slow.

About: What sets me apart from other dog sitters is my dedication to providing personalized care and attention to your pet. I offer a calm, loving environment, ensuring your dog feels comfortable and at ease while you’re away. Whether your dog needs extra playtime, medication administration, or simply some cuddles and companionship, I’m here to make sure they’re well taken care of and happy. Your pet’s well-being is my top priority! I am currently unemployed, unfortunately, so I am openly available to help out when and where needed. I cannot have pets in my home, however. When caring for pets in your home, I prioritize maintaining their routine and environment to help them feel safe and secure. I offer a range of services based on your pet’s needs, including daily walks, playtime, and feeding on their usual schedule. I also make sure to give your pet plenty of attention, whether it’s cuddling on the couch or keeping them entertained with their favorite toys. If your dog requires special care, like medication or additional comfort, I’m happy to accommodate those needs. I also take care to respect your home by keeping everything tidy and following any specific instructions you provide.

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. 🐾

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Ocean Springs

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Dog Sitting in Ocean Springs on Rover is $16.65 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 Dog 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 Dog Sitting. For more information on service fees, click here .

As of August 2026, there are 255 sitters on Rover offering Dog Sitting across Ocean Springs. 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 Ocean Springs 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.

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 Ocean Springs 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. 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.

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 Ocean Springs 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 with handling special pet needs in Ocean Springs. On Rover:

  • 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 95% 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.

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.
