Pet Sitting Starkville

“I appreciate Erinne's reliability, especially considering this was my first time using Rover to find someone to care for my cat. Erinne consistently visited my home every other day to feed, water, and spend time with my cat. She also provided photos from each visit, along with observations about how my cat was doing. Erinne proved to be a responsible caregiver, and I felt completely at ease while travelling overseas, knowing my pet was in capable hands. I highly recommend Erinne and plan to book her again.”

“Rolo had a wonderful experience with Elizabeth Jayne. He bonded with her right away. She sent text & photo updates of how he was doing. Looking forward to having her look after Rolo in the future!”

About: With over 15 years of hands-on experience working with animals, I bring a calm, confident, and knowledgeable approach to every pet in our care. I am an experienced Rover pet care providers and share the same dedication to providing safe, reliable, and personalized care for every animal I meet. My background includes professional dog handling, dog training, and dog walking for a company, giving me experience with dogs of all breeds, sizes, temperaments, and energy levels. I have extensive experience caring for dogs, cats, reptiles, and other small furry animals, allowing me to confidently meet a wide variety of pet care needs. I am comfortable with feeding routines, enrichment activities, habitat maintenance, and administering medications when required. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and routine are always my top priorities. I am trained in dog CPR, and I prioritize safety, structure, and positive reinforcement in every interaction. Whether your pet needs a reliable walker, patient caregiver, or someone who understands behaviour and individualized care, I tailor our services to fit their unique needs. Animals aren’t just a job for me—they’re my passion. I genuinely love building trust, providing enrichment, and ensuring every pet feels comfortable, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. We offer flexible, around-the-clock availability to meet your pet care needs. Whether you need early morning walks, midday drop-ins, evening visits, overnight care, or last-minute bookings, were happy to accommodate a schedule that works best for you and your pet. I understand that every household runs differently, and pets don’t always stick to a 9–5 routine. That’s why I make myself available all hours of the day, including weekends and holidays, to provide consistent, reliable care when you need it most. Your pet’s routine, comfort, and well-being remain my priority, no matter the time. Safety, trust, and comfort are my top priorities when caring for pets in both my home and my client’s home. I take the time to learn each pet’s routine, preferences, and any medical or behavioral needs to ensure consistency and reduce stress. I maintain a clean, calm, and pet-safe environment, closely supervise interactions, and follow feeding, exercise, and medication instructions exactly as provided. In a client’s home, I respect your space while keeping your pet’s routine as normal as possible — including walks, playtime, enrichment, and quiet rest. In my home, pets are treated like family, with a secure environment, structured care, and plenty of attention. I also monitor for any changes in behavior or health and communicate updates so you always feel confident and informed while you’re away.

About: I have been taking care of dogs since I was a little kid. Recently I had 2-3 cats and I have been taking care of them for my friends for the last 3 years. All my friends rely on me for cat sitting whenever they are heading out. I am currently working full time work from home so I will be able to take care of your fur babies at any and every time for you while you away. Me and my brother both of us love cats and what do our best to give them 24/7 entertainment, play with them and cuddle with them.

About: I’ve trained and taken full care of my puppy Ollie… as well as just taken care of both of my dogs all my life… I enjoy spending much of my time with animals and always make sure they’re well taken care of. I am currently on a gap year so I am home all the time… I walk and feed my dogs everyday and spend almost all my time with them. I have an open backyard that is about 3 acres as well as a fenced in section. I am very flexible and able to do what ever you need me to do!

“Allyson did a great job, I don't think the cats knew I was gone. She sent me pictures of them everyday and I could see they were happy which gave me peace of mind.”

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 12 years old. I’ve always been the person my family and friends ask to help watch their dog or to just stop by to let them out and feed them. I’m also capable of following a routine if needed and or making my own planned out routine for the dog. Currently I work part time at petsmart as a dog trainer where I teach classes for all breed and ages of dogs, I’m an accredited trainer and I plan to be certified in the future. I have experience with puppies all ages and I am comfortable with giving medication to old dogs if needed. Currently I work part time at petsmart so I have lost of free time during the week to watch, walk or let out your dog if needed. I am available also for routine visits for the same pet. For all of my pets I have kept or taken care of, I have always followed a routine that I am either given or I create on my own to I make sure nothing gets left behind or forgotten. My goal is to ensure i reach your dog’s daily needs for the time that I’m there with them.

About: Hello! I currently have two dogs of my own, I have grown up with dogs my whole life and I couldn’t imagine my life without them! I have a 5 year old saluki mix and a 4 year old saluki who is crazy! I am well versed in all types of dogs, energies and behavioural needs, I also have walked an abundance of different breeds and sizes of dogs. I am ready for anything you may want just ask! I currently offer daily walks and drop-ins to check on your fur babies and house sitting:) I am currently a part time nurse, so I will have plenty of time to play with your pups! I do have lots of time on my hands and am pretty flexible and can be discussed more on a case by case basis. I would ensure your pup had a long walk and even have some play time in there as well I typically would walk and play with your pup for 30 mins to an hour depending on your preferences. House sitting is more detailed and customized to each pet parents requests! I have a ton of patient and will go at the pace of your dog and not rush anything. I would make sure your pup has all the necessities when being walked or checked in and making sure they are always happy and content before leaving. As well as making sure they have sufficient water and lots of play time before leaving and I would also love to send pictures while I am walking or checking in on your pup and send them to you!

About: I completed my first pet sitting booking (10 days) and I was very successful! Not only were the cat and dog happy but the owner came home right after a major snowstorm to mostly shovelled driveway. My clients referred me to a friend! I intend to complete a pet first aid course in the spring. References upon request. Areas: Guelph, Hamilton, Ajax, Port Perry, Oshawa , Whitby, Vancouver Tri-city area, Peterborough, Cottage Country and more. I work from home so all I need is an internet connection! I am not glued to a desk and I like to situate myself where I can keep an eye out and be by the back door. Hour lunch break is playtime and before and after work a walk. I believe in providing for the pet’s normal routine. I keep my belongings and food out of reach and am ready for behaviours that might come up with their family away. Tummy rubs and playtime ease stress. I maintain the litter box daily so it doesn’t get out of hand. I have education in gerontology and earth science. I love older pets and will care for your plants too.

“Randy was very thorough in addressing our cats’ needs. He also entertained them with each visit and made sure they had their playtime. I would definitely recommend Randy.”

About: For me, pets are not just another being living at home but a part of family. Hence, I patiently learn, understand their character and needs so that I can provide the required care accordingly. As I am currently a stay at home wife, pet care is a big part of my daily routine. I ensure regular feeding, playtime, walks, and lots of attention. I make sure pets feel safe and comfortable by keeping a clean, secure space. I build trust with lots of love, regular meals, and playtime, using pet-friendly products to keep everything healthy.

About: I’ve had animals in my life for as long as I can remember and have experience caring for all kinds of pets. I have my own dog, whom I’ve trained and care for every day, giving me hands-on experience with training, exercise, feeding, and providing lots of love and attention. I’m patient and responsible, and I'll treat every pet like my own. I’m currently in Teachers College, so my schedule is flexible and allows me to fit pet care into my daily routine. I love staying active and working out, so I’d be happy to include walks, playtime, and plenty of exercise with your pet while also giving them lots of attention and care. Some things to note about my schedule: As mentioned, I am currently in teachers college. I’m in a placement from September 21–October 26, Monday–Friday from 9:00–3:30, but I do have an hour lunch break each day, so I may be able to work something out depending on what time you’re looking for. I’ll also be away for school November 14–December 18 to which I won’t be available. Then I’ll have another placement January–February. Outside of those times, I have more flexibility. I’ll provide care in my clients’ homes, following each pet’s usual routine and making sure they feel comfortable and cared for. I’ll keep up with feeding, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions, while giving them lots of attention and making sure their home is kept clean and secure.

About: I’ve had dogs since I was 3 years old. I know what they need, I’m loving and always home ready to play! I know what animals need to be cared for, but I’m also very social. I love to spend time, talk and play with dogs and cats alike. I work from home so I am always home. I don’t travel on weekends and my husband has always been a cat person, also works from home and will happily help too! I have many dog treats, toys and a fenced backyard. I live in a safe area, and my house is very spacious.

“Bill was great! He took the time to make sure our kitty was as happy and healthy as possible. When she stopped eating as much (something she does when we aren't around) he made sure we knew and gave us updates every day.”

Jessica A.

“Jessica visited our cat while we were away for a week. It was the first time we left our cat alone for such a long time so I was a bit worried. After every visit Jessica sent us pictures and updates on how our cat was doing. When we came back everything was perfect and the cat was fine. I recommend Jessica and will use her services again.”

About: I have a little puppy named Sparky who’s 1 years old and loves kids and other dogs. Very gentle but exited. I grew up on a farm before moving to the city as an adult. So I have ample experience in animal care both in a professional setting and as household pets. I work from home on my own schedule in social media- with very limited interruptions daily when I’m marked available. I also go for walks myself daily to keep active and engaged no matter the weather. I live in a condo - but access to dog park and outdoor space near by. Looking to help you and your busy schedule with short term care-I would love to have in my apartment as long as needed! but if space is an issue for your preference and your pets ideal space needs - I do have a small apartment.

About: I have had cats and dogs since I was a baby! But I’ve been more responsible (walking, feeding, taking them to the vet) since I was about 12 years old. I work from home! So I can take breaks as needed to care for your pets, my schedule is very flexible! Working from home is also a great advantage if your pet needs someone to hangout with during the day. I am an animal lover, and I’ll do everything to make sure every pet feels safe and loved while I’m my car. My house has a fenced yard and I live about a block away from the park!

About: I was born into a home with pets. My parents, my grandparents, aunts and uncles, all had pets. It was the most normal thing in the world to have a dog or cat cuddle up to me while I played with my toys, watched movies, or did my homework. It was the best kind of life and I am honoured everyday to have lived in the presence of such amazing animals. I couldn’t imagine my life without a pet. Up until this past March, I had a cat named August. We would go everywhere together, on car rides, camping, even sometimes on walks. He would get excited to run, and probably irritated that he could outrun me, but mostly he loved the car. I had always wanted a dog, but I’m waiting until I own a house, for security and space. In the meantime, I melt into other people’s dogs. I love how excited they get to see me, the love they experience in me before they even know me is overwhelming, and it makes my heart melt. I once had a passenger tip me a large tip because her dog, who hates people, loved me. It makes me feel a little impatient to have one of my own but I’m not there yet. So, until then, I am looking to spend time with, caring, for other people’s dogs. I welcome the opportunity to be a part of a dog’s world, even if only briefly, and hopefully I melt into them as they do into me. I am an artist (singer/songwriter and writer of prose) and an Uber driver. My rates are what they are so I can take the time needed to spend with your pet, and focus far less attention on work. Tending to the care and attention of another’s animal would be an excellent inclusion into my artistic process. As an Uber driver, I can take the time off, so I can focus entirely on the fur baby in my care. We will go on walks, enjoy each other’s company, and eat according to their set schedule. I am flexible and willing to meet the special demands of your little one. I will ensure any physical aids your dog requires, from medications to physical supports, will be handled with the utmost care.
