Donya is literally the best! She has gone above and beyond multiple times helping both me and my dog. As long as she will continue to deal with me and my crazy dog I won't hire anybody else!

This was my first time using Rover and I was nervous, but once I met Mrs.Chyrl she was very kind and loving to my sweet fur baby. She was on time for all their walks together and she took care of my fur baby like it was her own.

About: Hello! I’m Alyce, and animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve spent years caring for dogs, cats, and other animals through every stage of life. Growing up, I helped care for family pets, assisted with grooming, and even learned early on how important patience, routine, and observation are when caring for animals. I understand that every pet has a unique personality. Some want to play the moment you walk in, some need a little time before they’re comfortable, while others might rather being completely left alone—and that’s okay! I believe in meeting each pet where they are and following their normal routine as closely as possible. Whether your pet needs a potty break, exercise, fresh food and water, medication, or simply companionship while you’re away, I’ll provide dependable care and detailed photo updates so you can feel confident they’re in good hands. I’m not just fitting pet care into my schedule—I’ve chosen to make it part of my daily routine! I’m intentionally keeping my availability open so I can provide dependable drop-in visits & dog walks around your pet’s schedule. Building my Rover business is something I’m genuinely enthusiastic about, & I’m committed to being reliable, responsive, & flexible whenever possible. I look forward to building lasting relationships with both pets & their people! Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. During every visit, I’ll carefully follow your instructions regarding feeding, medications, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and any special routines your pet relies on. I’ll also make sure doors, gates, and crates are securely closed before leaving and will send detailed updates with photos after each visit so you know exactly how your pet is doing. My goal is to help your pet feel comfortable in their own familiar environment while giving you peace of mind whenever you’re away.

About: I was a kennel worker for 2 years, providing daily care for dogs of various temperaments. My responsibilities included feeding, cleaning and sanitizing kennels, supervising playtime, administering medications as directed, and monitoring health and behavior. Caring for pets is something I truly enjoy. I make time each day for walks, feedings, and plenty of attention to ensure every pet feels safe and happy. I care for pets as if they are my own. I follow their usual routine closely and send regular updates to stay connected with owners while they are away.

About: I have a passion and love for all animals but especially dogs! I have always had animals in my family home-dogs, cats, ducks, chickens, pigs, a cow, etc… Now I just have my two dogs, an 11 year old husky and a 8 year old golden retriever. I promise to love and care for your pets as if they were my own. I work full time as a teacher, but my late afternoons, evenings, weekends, and holiday breaks are free!! Please let me know if you are looking for someone that fits these times! Your pets will be as safe and taken care of as my spoiled two dogs! If they are staying here with me, I will make sure they are cared for like my own.

This was my first time using Rover, and I was a little wary about letting a stranger into my house. But Mason’s personality was very reassuring from the start. He was prompt for our meet-and-greet before I booked him, and he was awesome and friendly. Mason was kind, communicative, and took great care of my cats while I was away. He sent updates and pictures, and I appreciated how much attention he gave them. My normally shy cats even came out to see him, which says a lot. I’d absolutely book Mason again.

About: When it comes to pet sitting, there are countless options available, but what truly sets me apart from others is a unique blend of experience, passion, and personalized service. I OFFER TAILORED CARE FOR EACH PET : I understand that each pet is unique, with their own personality, preferences, and needs. I take the time to get to know each animal, allowing me to tailor your care approach. Whether your baby is a shy kitty that needs extra gentle coaxing or an energetic dog that requires plenty of exercise, I customize my time with your furbabies to ensure each of them feel safe and loved. TOP NOTCH COMMUNICATION SKILLS : I prioritize open and honest communication with my clients. I keep you updated with regular messages ,photos, and videos to assist in reassuring you that your furry family members are in great hands. Being able to provide detailed reports on your pet's behavior and well- being makes me a reliable choice. EXTENSIVE KNOWLEDGE AND TRAINING : My background in pet care began at a very early age. I've also studied animal psychology and communication and that coupled with my empathy and compassion towards all animals allows me to stand out from the rest of the sitters on here. I am well versed in animal behavior, health, and safety protocols, enabling me to handle emergencies calmly and effectively. My expertise gives you the peace of mind knowing your furbaby is cared for by someone with vast knowledge on the animal kingdom. COMPASSIONATE AND TRUSTWORTHY : My genuine love for animals shines through in everything I do. My clients can sense my compassion and dedication, fostering a strong bond of trust. I prioritize the emotional well-being of not only the animals I care for but also the pet parents. I take your decision to trust me with one of your, if not most precious blessings in life very seriously and would never do anything to compromise that in any way. I know how stressful it can be leaving your babies and I do everything I can to make this experience as easy and as pleasant as possible. FLEXIBLE AND AVAILABLE : I understand you may have a diverse schedule with varying needs. I offer flexible scheduling options and last minute availability. The ease of my adaptability ensures I can accommodate a wide range of requests, making it easier for you to find the right care for your pets. ENGAGING ACTIVITIES AND SOCIALIZATION : I go beyond basic care by providing engaging activities and socialization opportunities for pets. Interactive playtime, daily walks/runs, and enriching exercise that stimulates your furbaby's mind. This ensures your pets are not only cared for but also entertained and happy. COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT: I am in the developmental stages of founding a non-profit organization that caters to elder animals ensuring they're loved and cared for during their final days. This is leading to a collaboration between the senior adults in our community who are looking for companionship as well. If you're interested or know someone who could benefit from this service then please let me know! PERSONAL TOUCH : Lastly, my approach is marked by a personal touch. I remember specific details about each pet, such as favorite toys, treats , or routines, and I always incorporate those into my care. My attention to detail allows you to feel confident that your pet is receiving the best possible care. A sneak peek into our DAILY ROUTINE: Morning care: Every morning I take the dogs for a 30 minute or longer walk. I believe that a good start to the day sets the tone for both pets and their parents. Upon returning to the house it's breakfast time and then a play session. Midday Visits : For clients that need daytime check-ins, I schedule visits that include feeding, playtime, and bathroom breaks. Evening Engagements : In the evenings, I dedicate time to provide additional walks, cuddles, and play sessions, ensuring that the furbabies receive ample attention and care. This is essential for their emotional well-being. Through out the week I maintain flexibility in my schedule to accommodate your pet's unique needs. Whether it's regular visits, overnight stays, or special requests, I am here to support you and your pet's routine. In addition to my routine, I truly believe in fostering a safe, fun, and nurturing environment for your furry family. I am passionate about providing the best care possible and treat every pet as of they were my own. If you have any questions or would like to discuss your pet's specific needs ,please don't hesitate to reach out. I'll always be here to ensure that you and your pet feel at ease. Thank you for considering me as your pet sitter! I follow your care instructions and if you entrust that to me I will discuss with you a care plan. Each pet is unique and will have their unique needs.

About: I have 4 well taken care of cats at home right now. In my youth, I had a Pomeranian named Mufasa that was equally adored. My parents took over raising him when I left home and sent updates regularly. He has since passed away and ascended the rainbow 🌈. I am interested in taking care of other animals while in California. Since Mufasa, I have taken care of my small fleet of cats, all with their own personalities, and even two flocks of chickens over an 8 year period. I am interested in all animals and can adjust to accommodate any of their needs. ❤️ I’m currently working as an event coordinator in El Segundo. The event that I’m working is not starting for another month so I’m looking to spend time doing something that I love which is taking care of animals. I cannot host right now, as I am living in apartments that are too small to accommodate other animals, but I treat others environment as I would my own. With respect.

About: Animals have always been part of my daily life — I currently share my home with a sweet 10-year-old cat and a 5-month-old terrier puppy, so I’m no stranger to different personalities or energy levels! Training my own puppy from the start taught me patience, structure, and how to keep even the most playful pets focused and happy. I also have a close relationship with a licensed veterinarian whom I can consult at any time. While I’m not a medical professional myself, this connection gives me added confidence in handling emergency situations calmly and responsibly. I treat every cat and dog like family, making sure they feel loved, secure, and cared for while you’re away. Whether your pet needs calm companionship, structured puppy play, or just someone who understands both meows and woofs, I’ve got it covered. Your pets will get personalized attention, plenty of affection, and the same love and consistency they’re used to at home. Hi there! Currently working part time while I study for my courses and exams for cybersecurity. I’m a smart, quick thinking guy with a big heart - especially when it comes to animals! I will be sure to follow any and all safety guidelines you provid. Your pet’s safety and security is my number one priority, and they’re in excellent hands!

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.

About: I’ve grown to love the company of animals over people most days lol. I’m a doggy mom to a big Pitt/Hound 8 month old puppy named Cocoa & he’s about 75lbs already! I’m also a mom of 4 so I’m pretty good at multitasking. Im a chef & I also own a small cleaning business & have often times been entrusted with the tasks of pet sitting, feeding, walking & bathing of their fur babies while on jobs or just as help on days outside of cleaning jobs. I have healthy recipes for animal treats & love to watch them gobble them down once permission is granted by mom or dad of course. Animals tend to gravitate towards me & I absolutely adore the good feels I get from their pure energy & love. I would be more than happy to meet your new fur babies & take part in spoiling them a little. Im an entrepreneur so my schedule is pretty flexible outside of my kids… I usually only need a days notice of a needed appointment for smoothie sailing on both sides but I’m definitely open to being on call of sorts if ever needed in an emergency situation. I can make accommodations for pet sitting during the day or over night whenever needed but only in the clients home as my home as small kids present always. I have no issue with crating your fur babies if needed. I’m knowledgeable on how to harness a dog & I know how to restrain them if transportation is ever required. I’ll care for your pets just as I would my own, with love & kindness.

FAQs for Drop-In Visits - Picayune

Frequently asked questions about Rover

The average cost for Pet Sitting in Picayune on Rover is $22.2 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 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 July 2026, there are 291 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across Picayune. 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 Picayune 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 Picayune. On Rover:

  • 100% of sitters can help with special care needs
  • 100% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 91% 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.
