About: My work allows me to work from home and I also leave the house to meet with clients out in my community (as a Real Estate Advisor) which allows me the flexibility to care for pets through the day. We are up at 5am and generally go to bed around 10pm. I am self employed (Real Estate Agent) so I have a flexible schedule and work from home and when I leave I am away from home for about 2-4 hours. I have a quiet home in a quiet safe community. I keep busy at home throughout the day with working on the computer to doing basic household chores and some gardening so your dog will stay stimulated and keep active. And there’s plenty of rest and relaxation too! SAFETY, TRUST & ENVIRONMENT: I offer both EXCLUSIVE boarding starting at $60/night and MULTI-family boarding starting at $35/night - your choice depending on your dogs comfort level with other dogs. If you choose EXCLUSIVE Boarding or Daycare, your dog/dogs will the only dogs in my home when they stay. I have a nice fenced in backyard. And I NEVER LEAVE YOUR DOGS OUTSIDE ALONE OR UNATTENDED. If your dog is accustomed to going to kennels or doggy day care then I also offer a reduced rate for MULTI-FAMILY BOARDING in which your dog(s) could be with dogs from other homes, depending on your dogs’ temperament and disposition. I DO NOT MIX AGGRESSIVE DOGS TOGETHER. I know my regular clients very well and understand which dogs may or may not be a good fit for each other. If your dog likes being crated at night or when I leave the house , I do have crates. Just let me know your preference and if your dog has any anxiety or fears. Tell us how you like your dog cared for and we will make accommodations accordingly! I live in a quiet neighborhood so I can also take your dog for a stroll or an active walk (weather permitting). In the middle of summertime I am very careful so as not to overheat your pup! I am self employed and leave the house from time to time (real estate agent) so some days I’m home all day and other times I’m gone for about 2-4 hours.
“Brittany was amazing!! She took amazing care of my fur babies the entire time, my flight home got delayed and she still got up and took care of them. I wouldn’t trust anybody with my. babies more than her!!!”

About: Hi! I'm Yan, and I live in Gulfport, Florida. I'm a lifelong animal lover and a proud cat mom to two cats of my own — a tabby and a black cat — so I understand exactly how much trust it takes to leave your pets in someone else's care. Pet care is my main focus right now, and my schedule is very flexible. I'm available daytime, weekends, and holidays, including Thanksgiving and Christmas. I offer drop-in visits, dog walks, and house sitting, all within about 5 miles of Gulfport. Here's what you can count on from me: I follow each pet's routine carefully, from feeding times and medications to favorite toys and litter care, and I send photo updates at every visit so you can travel with peace of mind. For dog walks, I welcome small and medium dogs (16–40 lbs), which keeps every walk safe and fun. I'm patient, gentle, and dependable, and I always let cats set the pace — some want playtime and cuddles, others just want a calm, quiet presence nearby. I'm new on Rover and building my first reviews, so I'm extra motivated to give your pets the best care. I'd love to meet you and your pet for a free meet-and-greet before your first booking! I have a flexible schedule and plenty of free time during the day, so pet care fits easily into my routine. I'm available for morning and afternoon visits on weekdays, and I'm also happy to help on weekends and holidays. Because I live locally in Gulfport and keep my days open, I can respond quickly to requests and adjust visit times to match your pet's usual routine. All of my care takes place in your home, where your pet feels safest. I follow your instructions to the letter, keep doors and gates securely closed, and make sure your pet always has fresh water and a clean, comfortable space. I never let dogs off-leash outside a securely fenced area, and I keep your vet's and emergency contact details on hand, just in case. I treat your home with respect, locking up carefully when I leave, and I send photo updates after every visit for your peace of mind.
About: Hi! I’m currently finishing my certification with CATCH Canine Trainers Academy (positive reinforcement), and I am a soon to be working closely with an experienced trainer. I am good at reading dog body language and helping dogs feel safe and relaxed in my home. As a semi-retired teacher, I’m home throughout the day and structure my time around walks, enrichment, play, and rest, so visiting dogs naturally become part of a predictable, low-stress routine. As a semi-retired teacher, I structure my day around walks, playtime, enrichment, and quiet rest periods, so visiting or boarding dogs easily fold into that routine. I’m home throughout the day, which helps me give lots of attention and keep a calm, predictable environment. My home fully fenced with plenty of sectioned off spaces including a small pool for any dog who loves a little structured swim time - calling all Goldens and Labs!! 🤿💦🐟🏊 For dogs who enjoy activity, I offer: *Supervised yard play and enrichment *Optional splash/play time in the pool (weather permitting & always supervised) Snuffle mats, puzzle games, and structured downtime.
About: I volunteered at a high intake animal shelter all throughout high school, and worked at a busy vet clinic/boarding facility for 3 years, handling all sorts of pets with all sorts of temperaments and needs I am a current college student, I am available everyday after my classes end: M/W/F after 10:30 and T/TH after 11:30. Mondays I do have an additional class from 1:30-4:30 but I am available after that time Unfortunately living in a dorm, I am not able to care for pets in my home. However when in a clients home I understand the importance of going that the pets pace and what they’re comfortable with!
About: I've had dogs my whole life. It started with Smokey and Brownie when I was a kid, then Puppy, Marley, Ash, and now my girl Hazel. Taking care of them has always been a big part of my life. I've also pet and house sat for friends many times, so I know how much it means to trust someone with your home and your fur baby. I have a real soft spot for senior dogs and I'm very comfortable caring for them. I know older pups need a little extra patience, gentle walks, and a close eye on how they're feeling, and I love giving them that. I'm comfortable giving oral medication and keeping track of when it's due. I even make Hazel's food from scratch, so I pay close attention to feeding routines, special diets, and any little changes in behavior. I'll follow your pet's normal routine as closely as I can so they feel safe and comfortable while you're away. I’m currently a college student and work part-time from home, which gives me a very flexible schedule! Since I’m able to manage both school and work remotely, I have plenty of availability throughout the day to give your pets the attention, care, and companionship they deserve. I’m available most weekdays, evenings, and weekends, including overnight stays, drop-in visits, and walks. I’m always happy to work around your schedule and your pet’s specific needs to make things as convenient and stress-free as possible! All of my care happens in your home, so your pet gets to stay in a familiar space with their own bed, toys, and routine. That means less stress for them and more peace of mind for you. There are no other animals around, so your pet gets my full attention. I'll keep doors and gates secure, make sure food and water are always fresh, and give medications exactly as instructed. I'm also happy to bring in mail, water plants, and keep your home tidy. I'll send you updates and photos so you always know how your pet is doing.
“Emma is amazing! I have 3 dogs that can be a handful alone but are even more so when they work as a team. She saved our holiday trip by being able to take the dogs on short notice and absolutely crushed it after our normal sitter had to cancel. I don’t advertise often but in this case Emma is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!”

“Excellent care and attention! Nastasia is very loving and caring with my Chihuahua Rasta- and I absolutely love getting all the photo and video updates! I can tell my puppy is happy to have her come hang out with her!”

“Alison is amazing with our pitty, Sadie has always had anxiety issues and with only 2 drop in visits Sadie is giving her kisses and warming up so much to her. We are so thankful we have found Alison to be part of our babies life's”

About: I’ve been caring for cats and dogs my entire life and absolutely love being around animals! I’ve trained multiple dogs over the years, and I’ve even attempted to train a few cats—but that’s still a work in progress. 😸 I enjoy taking the pups for walks and runs, playing fetch at the dog park and giving them all the love and attention. You can find me playing “Where did the red dot go?” with my feline friends and also giving them all the love and attention. I have experience with drop-in visits and in-home pet sitting. I’m comfortable caring for pets with different personalities, energy levels, and routes. I have a flexible schedule and enjoy spending my free time taking care of animals. I enjoy being active and already go on plenty of walks and runs. Adding a dog would just making my walks a lot better! I follow your pet’s normal routine, including feeing, walking, playtime, and medication if needed. I’m respectful of your home, and make sure everything in clean and locked up before I leave. I also update you with photos and messages so you know your pet is happy and taken care of. 🐶😺
“Rebeca is amazing! She is so attentive, caring, and thoughtful. She took such wonderful care of our cat and gave me so much peace of mind that I could truly enjoy my time away. Her communication was excellent, and she always went the extra mile to make us feel special and cared for. I’m so happy knowing our girl was in such good hands while we were away. We highly recommend Rebeca and will definitely book with her again! ❤️”


“Thankful to have found Joli to watch Bear whenever we’re in the St. Pete area! She’s always responsive and sends updates and photos while we’re out. I fully trust her with our high maintenance little wiener dog!”

About: Hi I’m Cassandra. I grew up with dogs and cats of various sizes and breeds! I have experience with dog training and behavior as well. I have trained 2 Belgian Malinois. I’m the girl at the party who just plays with the dog (or cat) the whole time. I’m able to follow instructions closely and tailor my visits to whatever suits you and yours the best! :-) I have a flexible, mostly remote work schedule and I’m usually available on short notice! Just ask and I’m happy to work around your schedule as needed! I have a fenced yard and caged pool. I can bring your dog to my place for play dates or do drop in visits if they’re more comfortable at home! I have a reliable vehicle and love playing fetch, tug, and giving cuddles.
About: I just recently moved to the Gulfport area and am looking to meet new pets and people. I've been pet boarding and sitting with Rover in Charlotte, NC for the past 4 years. I've had dogs and cats growing up. I've pet sat my friends and families dogs and cats for over 5 years! I love animals and they bring me joy! I currently work part time so I have lots of availability during the week! I am also available on the weekends as well, let's do this. I have a big backyard and front yard and live in a very walkable neighborhood. The backyard is fenced for playing and staying safe! Yay!
About: I have been in the pet care world for most of my life. I have volunteered and worked in shelters since a young age. Through my 20’s I managed a small boarding and adoption facility. I have experience in all types of animals - from fish, to snakes, to hamsters, to rabbits, to cats and dogs (my fav!). I currently have two rescue pups. I truly love animals and enjoy caring for them. I have taken care of so many different types and breeds along with those that have medical needs and senior needs. Thank you for considering me to care for your family member! I have my own business which offers me flexibility with scheduling. I will always try to work with you on what your schedule needs are. Caring for your pets and making sure they are comfortable and have what they need is #1 priority. I will always go over what your pets needs are with you first before starting any job, so that I make sure they have exactly what they need. I pride myself on healthy, responsible pet care.

Kim provided amazing care and peace of mind while we were away from the pups. During our meeting, Kim took very detailed notes and asked all the right questions. While we were gone, we received timely updates and pictures of the pups, along with detailed visit notes. I would definitely work with Kim again, and highly recommend for any pup who needs some drop in love. I would also trust Kim 100% if I had a special needs dog as she is kind, prompt and has amazing attention to detail.

Colleen was truly the best! You couldn’t ask for a more caring person to look after your pets!! She went above and beyond to make sure our cats were comfortable, stimulated, and happy while we were away! She gave us detailed daily reports and plenty of pics and videos!! I would highly recommend her to anyone needing a pet sitter!!

This was my first time using Rover and I couldn't be happier. Alyssa was super prompt during the booking and greeting process and as soon as we met her we knew we made the right choice. Our cat McKenzie was very well cared for, and with each passing day and photo updates, we could see him change and become more and more comfortable. Final day, flat on back, paws up, just totally relaxed. Thank you, Alyssa for a wonderful experience for all of us.
Linzey was so good with my three boys my cats Especially my one that has cardiomyopathy he takes medicine for He ended up getting real sick, while I was away on a cruise Linzey did everything she could to get him to an emergency hospital because he was in critical condition Even though I didn’t have great service she did everything she could to inform me and she let me know at the hospital what was going on If it wasn’t for her he wouldn’t have made it. She was great with my other two cats as well. I will definitely be using her again

We are so happy we were able to book Kylee last minute for our 4 months old kitten! She showed up promptly at each scheduled drop-in and took care of everything Pixel needed while we were away. Litterbox cleaning, feeding, so much play time and cuddle sessions plus plenty of treats to keep Pixel quite happy! We also got a ton of photo updates with each visit which helped ease some of my worry about leaving our kitten home for the first time but she made sure to communicate consistently and we had nothing to worry about. We will definitely book Kylee again int the future!

Amazing experience!! Skylar is professional and quick to respond. She is attentive and followed all the instructions I left for my dog Wrigley. She also kept me updated while I was away w plenty of photos. I can gone from vacation to a happy and well cared for pup!

Rebeca is amazing! She is so attentive, caring, and thoughtful. She took such wonderful care of our cat and gave me so much peace of mind that I could truly enjoy my time away. Her communication was excellent, and she always went the extra mile to make us feel special and cared for. I’m so happy knowing our girl was in such good hands while we were away. We highly recommend Rebeca and will definitely book with her again! ❤️

Our 7-year-old American Bulldog has always been a challenge to find care for. Until now, the only person we trusted to watch him was my brother-in-law. Our dog gets protective and anxious when we leave, and because of his size, many people are understandably hesitant to come into our home without us there. Dan went above and beyond by taking the time to meet our dog several times before our trip and doing a few trial visits to build trust. His patience, kindness, and calm demeanor made all the difference, and he ended up being the perfect fit for our pup. Knowing we had someone we could truly rely on gave us such peace of mind while we were away. We no longer have to stress about leaving town, and that is priceless. Dan is amazing, and we couldn't recommend him more highly. We can't wait to use his services again in the future!

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost of Pet Sitting in South Pasadena is $22 per visit as of November 2026. Most bookings cost between $15 and $30 per visit. On Rover, sitters set their own rates based on factors such as their experience, the length of care, the number of pets, and your pet’s specific needs. As long as your booking dates and pet profiles are accurate, the price shown before you confirm is the total, including any booking fee.
As of November 2026, there are 6,619 sitters on Rover offering Pet Sitting across South Pasadena. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.
You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. 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 timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- 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.
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 South Pasadena. On Rover:
- 89% of sitters can help with special care needs

- 96% 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 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.
sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their contact information. Sitters may set a same-day, one-, three-, or seven-day cancellation policy. Cancelling within your sitter’s cancellation policy qualifies you for a full refund.
Same-day cancellations for recurring services, which include walks, drop-ins, and day care, follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for pet boarding and house sitting, if you cancel after 12 pm on the applicable cancellation deadline, you’ll receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for any remaining days.
If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means you will get a full refund and our support team will work with you to find a replacement sitter.
