About: I have had experience from dog walking and sitting the past 10 years! I am energetic and a major animal lover! My golden retriever nike can vouch for me :) I am available all days of the week!! I have no scheduling commitments besides class Tuesday and Thursday from 11-3! Feel free to reach out! I care for pets by keeping them occupied and making sure they live their best life! I am very assertive and reliable when it comes to in home pet care or walks!

About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life. Growing up I had three dogs, one being a labrador, a golden retriever and a plot hound for 16 years. My three dogs I had since they were puppies till they were seniors one was 21 years old. One was 11 and one was 16 when they passed. Now I have two pit terriers that I have had for three years now. I grew up, always taking care of them. And taking care of my friends and neighbors dogs all throughout the years if they went out of town on a vacation or if they were just gone for the weekend I would visit and take care of them for the time being. I have taken care of a bunch of cats as well, because my friends and family have many. I have a lot of experience with taking dogs on walks especially big dogs. My three dogs were almost all 70 to 80 pounds and I would take all three of them on walks at the same time. I really enjoy being around animals and being able to take care of them. As of right now I am not working so my schedule is very flexible and I can accommodate almost every day of the week. Time or day that you need depending on your schedule, just let me know and we can definitely work something out. Right now I do live at an apartment which does not allow animals. So the space is not animal friendly at the moment. But I am working on finding a more friendly space.

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I’ve grown up caring for 5 dogs, a cat, a tortoise, and plenty of other pets over the years, so being around animals feels very natural to me. I understand that every pet has their own personality and routine, and I always try to make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved while their owners are away. I’ve helped take care of pets for friends, family, and neighbors by feeding them, walking them, playing with them, and giving them lots of attention. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, young, or older, I’m patient, dependable, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals. I’m currently in class Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday from 9am–12pm, and I work Friday and Saturday nights, but outside of those times I have a very flexible schedule. I’m available most afternoons, evenings, and weekends, and I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine and needs. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals, whether that’s going on walks, playing with them, or just giving them company and attention while you’re away. I always try to make pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in any environment. At our house during college, we’ve had 3 cats, so I’m very used to caring for animals daily and understanding different personalities and routines. I’ve also helped take care of foster dogs from the animal shelter, which taught me patience and how to work with pets that may be nervous or need extra attention. I’ll always treat your pets like they’re my own and make sure they get lots of love, attention, and proper care.
About: Hi there! My name is Alexia Dodd, and I go beyond just feeding and walking—I provide personalized, compassionate care tailored to each dog’s needs. Whether it's a high-energy puppy or a sweet senior needing extra attention, I treat every dog like my own. You’ll receive daily updates, photos, and peace of mind knowing your dog is in loving, capable hands. I maintain your dog’s routine as closely as possible to reduce stress while you're away. I am currently home for the summer from college, but pet care is a central part of my day, not just something I squeeze in. I plan my schedule around the needs of the pets in my care to make sure they get the time, attention, and consistency they deserve. In Your Home: Familiar, Low-Stress Comfort I follow your pet’s routine as closely as possible—feeding schedules, walk times, playtime, and bedtime. I keep their environment tidy and stress-free, including cleaning up after meals and litter or potty areas. I provide companionship, enrichment, and calm attention, especially for pets who may be anxious without their humans. I keep you updated with photos and notes so you always know how your pet is doing.
About: Hi, my name is Lindsey, and I can't wait to meet your pet! I've been around animals my entire life, from cats to dogs, and have provided excellent care to captive animals such as wolves, bobcats, and more. I have about two years of professional dog grooming experience. I have degrees in environmental science, and am currently a postdoc researcher at the University of Mississippi. I took a break from doing Rover during graduate school, so my profile has been largely inactive since ~2019, but now that I have a normal schedule again, I'm back at it! My work schedule is generally flexible, so I can work around it to fit the best possible care for your pet. There is a dog park at my apartment I love to use, and the rail trail here in Oxford backs right up to my complex making longer walks convenient. I know I want the absolute best care for my own dog, so I promise the best care for your pets as long as they are with me! My work schedule is generally 8:30 - 4:30, with at least one remote workday per week. Usually, I have one day per week that I do field work, which makes for a longer workday, but I always know in advance so I can plan accordingly. On a typical day, I walk my own dog from 7:00-7:30am, come home for a walk at lunch around 12:00pm, and do a longer walk around 5:00pm with a short bedtime potty break around 9:00pm (sometimes earlier or later depending on how late we're up!) As Aldo has gotten older, he generally prefers shorter walks/hikes, but I am always flexible to make the length and difficulty of walks match your pets' needs. Aldo is crate-trained, and I still have a spare large crate to use if needed. Safety is my biggest concern, especially because he will get into any crumbs or trash can if given the opportunity. I have a security cam set up in my home that I check remotely to make sure pets are doing well throughout the day. I do not have multiple pets out in the living areas together when unsupervised, unless they're very familiar with one another.
About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember, and I've been pet sitting since I was a freshman in high school. Over the years, I've cared for pets with a wide range of personalities, needs, and routines. I genuinely love spending time with animals and strive to provide dependable, attentive care that helps pets feel comfortable and gives owners peace of mind. Whether it's playtime, walks, feeding, or simply providing companionship, I'll treat your pets with the same love and care I would give my own. I am currently available seven days a week and have a flexible schedule, allowing me to provide reliable, attentive care for your pets at all times! I live in a spacious condo in The Reserve in Oxford, which provides plenty of room for pets to feel comfortable and at home. While my backyard is not fenced, it offers a large open area for supervised outdoor time, and I currently have no immediate neighbors, creating a quiet environment for pets to enjoy. Inside, there is ample space for dogs and cats to relax, play, and move around freely based on their individual personalities and comfort levels. I also have experience caring for pets in my home, including housing and caring for one of my roommate's dogs for an extended period this past May. Whether your pet enjoys being active outdoors, playing inside, or simply relaxing in a calm environment, I am committed to providing a safe, attentive, and loving experience that helps them feel comfortable while you're away.
About: I’ve had dogs since I was little — both big and small breeds. Caring for pets has always been second nature to me, and I make sure every dog feels loved, safe, and happy. From daily walks to playtime and snuggles, I treat every pup like part of the family I have class Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday mornings from 11-12:15 but I’m free most other times for walks, drop-ins, or playtime! I’m super flexible with afternoons, evenings, and usually weekends. I don’t have a fenced yard, but I make up for it with plenty of walks and outdoor playtime. I have a small yard for quick potty breaks and always make sure pups are safe, leashed, and cared for like my own.
About: I have a boxer so I can deal with crazy dogs! I am a big dog person so I would love to walk your pup! I am a freshman in college so I’m free most of the day, multiple times a day if needed! I have another job but i don’t work long hours so I am very flexible. I have my own dog so I know how to clean up and maintain a big dog especially if you are gone for a while!

Feeding breakfast and fresh water, along with administering any morning medications. Quick grooming session to check for any issues and ensure they look and feel their best. Midday Check-ins: Midday walks or outdoor playtime to break up the day and provide additional exercise. Midday meals or snacks if required, and a fresh water check.

Monitor and replenish supplies like food, medications, and grooming products. By integrating pet care into my routine, I ensure each pet receives consistent, attentive, and loving care throughout the day and week. In-Home Pet Care: Safety Measures: Conduct a thorough home inspection to identify and eliminate any hazards. Secure all doors, windows, and fences to prevent escapes. Keep toxic substances out of reach, including cleaning supplies and certain plants. Use pet-safe cleaning products to maintain a healthy environment.

Respect the owner’s home by following specific instructions and maintaining cleanliness. Environment: Create a comfortable and safe space for the pet with their bed, toys, and favorite items. Ensure access to fresh water and food, following dietary guidelines provided by the owner. Provide ample exercise and mental stimulation tailored to the pet's age, breed, and energy level. Client’s Home Pet Care: Safety Measures: Conduct an initial assessment of the home environment for potential hazards. Follow security protocols to ensure the home is safely locked and secure during visits. Administer medications and handle health concerns with utmost care. Trust Building: Schedule a meet-and-greet to get acquainted with the pet and discuss care routines
About: I’ve taken care of animals specifically dogs of all sizes ever since I was old enough to put food in a bowl. I’ve grown up around dogs of all sizes and my dog back home is my baby. I miss her everyday and I would love the opportunity to watch, care, and love on (if aloud) your fur baby for you. I’m currently a Senior at the University of Mississippi, but my classes are flexible, I also work part time but I am still home plenty to take care and love on your animal(s) I have no other animals in my home. I do not have a fenced in yard so they would have to be good on a leash. I have no problem walking dogs as many times as needed to go potty or just for daily walks. I do not believe an animal should be pent up in a crate so in my home your animal would have full access to walk around, but I can also easily crate your dog if preferred/needed!

About: I’m a freshman in college and a lifelong dog lover with two dogs of my own. I’ve grown up caring for dogs of all ages — from energetic puppies to sweet senior dogs who need extra patience and attention. I’m very comfortable with feeding schedules, walks, playtime, administering basic medications, and giving lots of love and attention. As a freshman in college, my schedule is pretty flexible! I’m free after 12 most days and also have availability in the mornings between my classes for walks, drop-ins, or check-ins. I love being able to break up my day with some puppy time! I’m also available most afternoons and weekends, so I can easily work around your dog’s routine! I’m very attentive to routines and will follow your instructions closely — whether that’s feeding schedules, medications, crate training, or specific house rules. I’ll also send regular updates and pictures so you can feel totally at ease while you’re away!! I have two dogs of my own and have watched many dogs back home so im very reliable!
About: What sets me apart is reliability and communication. You won’t have to wonder how things are going. I keep you updated and handle everything responsibly. I treat both your pet and your home with care and respect, like it’s my own. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I structure my days around consistency and reliability. I am an executive assistant and I’m used to managing schedules, so feeding times, walks, and check-ins are done on time and without shortcuts. I plan my day to make sure pets get my full attention, whether that’s active play, walks, or simply being present so they feel comfortable and not alone. I also build in time for updates to owners, so you always know how things are going. I prioritize creating a calm, safe, and predictable environment for every pet. I carefully follow all instructions, including feeding, medications, and routines, to keep things consistent. I’m very aware of surroundings during walks and in the home, making sure pets stay secure and out of unsafe situations. I treat your home with respect and keep everything clean and organized. My goal is for you to feel complete trust while you’re away, knowing your pet is cared for responsibly and attentively.
About: Ive been around animals my whole life and have had and cared for all types of dogs and cats. I’ve helped out friends, family, and neighbors with everything from walks and feeding to overnight stays. I’m good with puppies, high-energy dogs, and older pets that need a little extra care. I’m super reliable and will make sure your pet feels comfortable and taken care of while you’re gone. I’m currently doing online school and working at the country club once or twice a week for a few hours so I’m home the majority of the day and have a super flexible schedule. My boyfriend who I live with is also always in and out regardless of his schedule so one of us is pretty much always home! I have two supper friendly and well trained dogs I consider my children. I crate trained my dogs as puppies but don’t use them anymore and let them on the couch and sleep in the bed, but would follow whatever rules you have for your pets in your home.
About: I have cared for my dogs, cats, and horses since I was a little girl. My chihuahua was handicap for 15 years and I was her caretaker.

I’m reliable, caring, and always focused on making pets feel safe and loved in your absence. I’m currently attending Ole Miss and I am a Junior.
