About: I’ve lived in many different places, all of which I’ve connected with neighbors, friends, and relatives with animals, and I just love animals mostly dogs because I’ve grown up around so many of them and been able to care for them I have 3 dogs of my own two of which are siblings pets so everyday is just pet care, as in letting them out, feeding, watering, bathing when needed, playing, etc I treat every animal in my house as I would my own, they get all the same love and attention as every other pet in the house
About: I’ve cared for my 13-year-old Yorkiepoo since I was a child, so I have hands-on experience with both energetic puppies and senior dogs. I understand the patience, attention, and consistency older dogs need, including feeding routines, gentle handling, and keeping up with their medications. I’m here to make them comfortable. I’m reliable, attentive, and genuinely love making sure dogs feel safe and cared for. I am a remote college student. Therefore, I now have time for a job. I’m flexible and make time for feeding, walks, playtime, and check-ins throughout the day. Since I already care for my own dog, I’m used to being consistent and attentive, so adding pet care fits easily into my routine. I provide a safe, clean, and calm environment for every pet. While I don’t have a fenced yard, I stay very attentive and keep pets secure at all times. I enjoy being active, so I make sure dogs get regular walks, exercise, and fresh air. I also follow all instructions closely, including feeding schedules and medications, and I have experience caring for my senior dog with past heart issues, so I’m patient and attentive to each pet’s needs.
“Kristin and her family are hands down amazing. The 2nd time my Annie went to her house she walked right on in as if it were her own home. Thanks Kristin for treating Annie like family.”
“Amber was truly the best person to leave my sweet puppy with for the day! She kept me updated through text with pictures and videos throughout his entire stay, she invited me in when we arrived to give me the assurance of knowing where he would be for the day. Her home was very clean, tidy, and she was inviting to make me more comfortable. My anxiety about leaving him for the day was immediately relieved. Do not hesitate to let her care for your pets!!”
“Lexie was very quick to respond and accept taking care of our Zoe! Without her we would have been in a bind. It was a Sunday on a short notice. She communicated well with us through out the sit. Lexie made us feel comfortable throughout the whole time and Zoe was well taken care of! Would definitely recommend her!”

Her neighborhood was fabulous and offered a great safe place for walking! She treated my dog like she was her own and I would highly recommend her and would feel safe leaving my puppy there for a more extended visit as well!”
About: I’ve been caring for animals since I was 15, and it’s truly second nature to me. Over the years, I’ve looked after dogs and cats of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, cuddles, administering meds, or just being a comforting presence, I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. My experience includes overnight stays, and extended care while pet parents are away. I understand that every animal has its own routine and personality, and I make it a priority to adapt to their needs so they feel safe, loved, and comfortable in my care. Pet care is an easy fit in my daily routine because it’s something I genuinely love doing. I work with a flexible schedule that allows me to prioritize your pet’s needs. I plan my days around the animals I care for, making sure they get the attention, exercise, and companionship they need. Because I’m organized and communicative, you can count on timely updates and consistent care while you’re away. Your pet’s comfort and routine become a part of mine while they’re in my care! In Your Home: When caring for pets in my client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow your instructions closely including feeding times, walk schedules, medication, or favorite toys and treats. I respect your space and treat your home with care, making sure your pet feels safe, secure, and loved while you’re away. I also provide regular updates, photos, and notes so you always know how your pet is doing. In My Home (if applicable): If your pet stays with me, they’ll be treated like part of the family. I offer a cozy, pet-friendly space with plenty of room to play, relax, and feel at home. I make sure they get plenty of attention, exercise, and enrichment throughout the day. My home is quiet, safe, and perfect for pets who need a calm environment.

Frequently asked questions about Rover
The average cost for Doggy Day Care in Waveland on Rover is $31.08 per day (as of July 2026). However, all sitters set their own rates based on experience, location, and availability.

Sitters on Rover can offer flexible scheduling, so you can coordinate times that work best for you and your pet—whether that’s early drop-off or later pick-up to match your Waveland commute.
If your schedule changes, it’s best to let your sitter know through the app as early as possible. Many sitters can adjust pick-up and drop-off times when needed.
Think of doggy day care as your dog’s fun, supervised play date that happens to fit into your workday. Day care through Rover takes place in a real home. This offers a calmer and more personalized environment for your pup.
A typical day can include companionship, one-on-one attention, and same day pick-up and drop-off. Many sitters can also offer structured routines and exercise throughout the day. For recurring, weekly day care, sitters will include photo updates so you can see your dog in their element.
Here are tips for finding the ideal day care fit for your dog:
- For some small dogs: In-home day care can be the perfect fit. Look for sitters whose "can host" section only lists dogs weighing 0–7 kilograms and/or 7–18 kilograms. During your Meet & Greet, ask about play areas based on dog size and energy level.
- For high-energy dogs: The ideal doggy day care can offer scheduled breaks and outdoor spaces or activities. You can also find sitters who host multiple dogs to satisfy your pup’s socializing needs.
- For dogs who prefer human-only companionship: Use the filters "Doesn't own a dog" and "Only accepts one pet at a time" to find the right care.
Play groups can be an option when you book with a day care sitter through Rover. Many sitters do host a small number of dogs at the same time. Smaller dog packs are generally safer, more fun, and ideal for dogs who enjoy playtime but also want to relax throughout the day. When looking for your dog’s pack, check the sitter’s profile to see if they "Accept multiple clients" or have their own dogs. Then during the Meet & Greet, you can see whether your dog is a good fit for their social circle!
While each sitter sets their own vaccine requirements, staying up-to-date on your dog’s vaccines is the best way to be "boarding ready". Vaccinations help create a safe environment for all pets under a sitter’s care.
Many sitters in MS ask that dogs be up to date on core vaccines like the Canine Parvovirus, Canine Distemper, Canine Adenovirus, Bordetella, and Rabies.
By discussing your pet's health history early, you’re adding a layer of confidence for you and your sitter before the booking begins.
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.
Yes, Rover is well-suited for finding sitters who can care for your pet within 24 hours. With 77 sitters in Waveland, 87% respond to messages in under an hour.
You can message multiple sitters simultaneously to find the fastest available match. If you need care today or tomorrow, you can look for sitters with a "calendar last updated" notice on their profiles.
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.
