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 am an animal lover. I treat every pet with kindness, respect, and loving care because I truly believe animals are wonderful companions who bring so much joy and happiness to our lives. I am very organized with my schedule and responsible; I understand that pets are an important part of the family, and I care deeply about their well-being. I have experience handling different types of dogs; I take every need into account, and their care is my top priority I follow the rules set by the owner.
About: I’ve had animals since I was 5 yrs old, there is just something special about the connection I have with dogs, cats, horses, etc. They make the world a better place, and they are my happy place I have a part time job so I’m looking for something else I enjoy doing which is spending time with animals, feeding, sitting, walking them, playing fetch or just being a companion to the fur babies. My dad has 2 dogs, so we like to play with them in the backyard and I have a small dog and I like to sit with her in the front yard, she’s super spoiled she thinks she’s the queen of the house. We take her for walks and rides, but all of our dogs get pup cups and lots of treats
“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: 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.
About: Hi I'm Melissa and I am a 46 mother and homemaker. I am here to make your time away from your pet worry free and accommodate your pet care and/or house sitting needs while you are away. I have plenty of experience over my lifetime and even worked at a veterinary clinic with an assortment of different animals. I have a two month old puppy named Max and he loves other animals. I can provide plenty of references to ease your mind and have a very flexible schedule. I'd be happy to help you through the holidays or any other time of the year you could use an extra hand . Please feel free to contact me at your convenience and I look forward to meeting you and your pets. Thanks for looking and have a great day. I work from home and homeschool my 7 year old, I focus focus on Max's training throughout the day because this is a crucial time in his life where he needs to learn so many things. I make sure my days stay as flexible as they can be so we all get through them as a team and are still laughing at the end of it. With that being said as I am available to board a senior dog or special needs dog but I wouldn't prefer to have one at doggy day care on a regular basis until Max is older and has more training. I have a huge fenced in yard and lots of toys to play with. Max loves it out there and we have a little pool and a doggy house.
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!
“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!”
“Denise is incredible. She really helped us when we were in a bind and her flexibility was much appreciated. The pups loved her and we will definitely use Denise for all our Rover needs! Thanks again Denise!”

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Ocean Springs
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. 🐾

If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:

- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
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.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet 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. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first Meet & Greet .
