About: Family and friends have relied on me for sleepovers and check-ins for their dogs over the years. I have experience with puppy and senior care as well with pill administration. Currently, I have few other obligations, so my time and day availability is very open. Also, I have no vacation plans this summer so I will be in the Starkville area. I will follows any rules or guidelines set by you, the owner, when it comes to your pet. You know your pet and house the best, so I am not shy or hesitant with asking questions when it comes to either.
About: I work with animals every day and have been around them my entire life.

I love working with dogs, cats, and exotic pets, so I’m happy to provide attentive, compassionate care for all kinds of furry, feathered, or scaled family members! I’m currently working full time but I’m free weekends and afternoons. Every now and again i can be available early morning and i almost always have lunch between 11-1 I have 3 dogs at home and they have regular walks as well as quality alone time with me each! I do have crates just in case, but they only are used for vacations or temporarily.

About: Hi, I go by Milly! (Emily is my gov't name lol) and I've been amongst animals of all kinds my entire life; Pets, livestock, and even the occasional non-domesticated animal! I'm looking to mostly do Check-ins and Dog Walking services (pretty much anytime) as of right now through Rover. I currently own two Border Collie-mix dogs and one indoor cat. I grew up helping take care of our plethora of critters on and around farmland and in neighborhoods. Not only did I care for my own animals and learn their individual habits and needs, but I was also frequently hired to look after neighborhood pets of all sorts: Dogs, cats, rabbits, rodents, reptiles/amphibians, and occasionally birds. I have also fostered many dogs and cats from shelters and have helped them find homes! I've worked with animals as small as mice and as large as horses and cattle, and obviously everything in between! I'd love to pet sit, do checkups, and dog walk in my free time, so that's why I'm here! Right now my schedule is flexible, so I'd like to take advantage of that and use my free time for pet care! I am often available 8am-10am, 3pm-5pm, and anytime after 9pm (if needed)! My schedule changes weekly, and in between work hours I have my own pets that I tend to as well. I've often already fit the care of other peoples' pets (and foster animals) into my schedule, so I'm willing to work towards what's best for everyone involved. While I don't currently accept clients' pets in my home, I have absolutely no problem commuting to your home to check in on your animal! I'm good with feedings, potty breaks, playtime, walking, and just a general checking in! I'm also comfortable giving medications if I'm clearly instructed.
“Very pleased with Sara’s care for our senior dog. She was very thoughtful when she did her drop in and got him all set up on the couch with his ramp and some HGTV. Will definitely use Sara again!”

About: I’ve loved and have been taken care of animals since I was a kid. Also I am currently attending school to specialize in animals behavior. I am currently working a part time job, so I have more than enough time on my hands to fit pet sitting in my schedule. I am very attentive to the pets at all time. I also make sure that anything that could possibly harm them isn’t in their vicinity.
About: I’ve had dogs in my home all my life. I’ve taken care of them and cherished them. I love playing with them and taking them for walks. I love all dogs of all sizes. Im a proud mom of three dogs; two labradoodles and one schnauzer! I am currently in school, but my schedule is mostly open! If your pet can be at home alone for a few hours then we will be a perfect match!! I’m very comfortable with whatever you prefer for your pet. Leaving at somewhat detailed instructions would be ideal. If you own cats I will scoop the litter box if needed. I will always contact you if I don’t understand something so you can rest assured that everything is being done correctly.
About: "I treat every dog like family — giving them love, attention, and care tailored to their unique personality. With me, your furry friend gets more than just sitting; they get a trusted companion who understands their needs and keeps them happy and safe." I am free in the mornings depending on the schedule of my school I have to be at school at 10:30 or 12:05 and I am free in the afternoons on some days but until the first weekend of May I have rehearsal from 4-6 I will respect and clean the house and clean after myself, and I am very good at following instructions and making sure that your pet will be taken care of and spoiled !
About: I have worked with animals of all types over the best several years. I have personally had dogs, both big and small, in my household since I was a child. I currently have a cat who was adopted. In high school I worked with farm animals, exotics, reptiles, and birds. I am also a current fourth year vet student. I am a current first year vet school student at Mississippi State. I am available before classes on weekdays and after class (8-5), although some days I get out as early as 1:00. I am available during the evening after 5:00. I am available all weekend for your service. I am more than willing to work with every pet own to determine the best schedule for their pets. When working in a clients home, I would first set up a meeting to talk through their normal routine. I would strive to match what they do for their beloved pets throughout the service. I have experience with handling rowdy dogs, anxious animals, and untrusting pets.
About: I care so much about our little fur babies! I love being able to make the dogs happy & comfortable. I will always match the dogs energy & make sure they have fun! I’m a college student who has 2 classes a day mid morning. I can drop by or walk before or after class and will typically be free after class. I sometimes work as a server in the afternoon but can drop by before and after my shift if needed. I care for pets by feeding, playing, bathing, walking, & watching them! I will make sure the pet is as happy & comfortable as possible!
“Tara took such great care of Draco. He just loved her!! Our schedules changed and she was extremely flexible with us, thank you so much for taking such good care of our second baby!!”


About: I have been taking care of animals practically my entire life! I have pet sat in my home town for over ten years and also spent time in Starkville pet setting as well since I came here for school! I’m am a full time student but I am in my last semester so I have plenty of time to care for and play with your pets! I always make sure to hang out with the animals and give them extra love. Your pets are my priority when you trust me with their care! I am always willing to stay and keep your pets company for as long as you wish! I always make sure to do exactly as the owner wishes when caring for the pet. I am not able to keep animals at my apartment
About: I am flexible with any care your pet may need. I have a direct line to a vet clinic where I also work at. I also accept pets with prescribed medications or special needs. Exotics are also welcome, and I provide services for large animal such as horses, livestock, and/or farm animals! I try to be as flexible as possible to work around my schedule. I go to school so most visits would be extended afternoon visits, but weekends would be completely open. I require detailed and clear instructions of the exact care you want your pet to have. Such as do they have specific feed or potty times etc. all written on a hard copy. I take your special care needs seriously and like to make sure everything is done correctly; therefore, please be available to answer a text or phone call at any time.
About: I work at Shaggy Hound where we treat your dogs just like our own. I take care of dogs from 3 months to 17 years old. I can administer medications and keep them on a regular schedule. I can also start training your dog basic commands while they are in my care. I believe what sets me apart from other people is my knowledge and experience. I used to work at a vet clinic for four years and now I work as a Kennel Tech. I have gained so much confidence in my ability to handle and work with animals. Pet care fits into my routine because it’s what I do for work, i work with dogs and then I come home and get to spoil my own dog and cats. I have a passion for caring for animals because they can’t do it for themselves. Your pets depend on you and that is my motivation to be better for them everyday. I care for other people’s animals with the same genuine love as I do my own. Pets are apart of the family and deserve to see love and respect always.
About: Hello! I have been a volunteer with the Humane Society since 2018 and have experience doing all sorts of things! I have overseen meet and greets with new owners, fed/watered dogs on a schedule, cleaned yards, walked dogs, watched over playtime in the yards with multiple dogs, dealt with puppies, trained puppies, handled senior dogs, and handled cats as well. I went through orientation and training in order to be in this position at the shelter, so I have a good understanding of animal behavior and treatment. I also have two dogs of my own back at home and have been around dogs my whole life. (I’m okay with snakes too, I’ve had one of my own). I have been a pet sitter for family friends as well and have been told that they love the way I care for their babies! I am an avid animal lover and plan to become a veterinary surgeon. I am currently at Mississippi State University in the pre-vet concentration of my animal and dairy sciences major! I am home from college for the summer, so my schedule is super open! I work part-time and shifts are only about 4 hours, so that leaves me plenty of time to give your pets the quality time that they deserve! I will be very dedicated to giving your fur babies the best care possible. My own dog is super active and she gets walked for an hour in the mornings, another shorter walk mid-day (weather permitting), and then another hour long walk in the evenings with plenty of play time in between! I will send daily updates and photos if you are away from home and I am doing drop in visits! I know that when pet parents are away, pets can become lonely and feel left out but I am here to make sure that they have fun and have a happy time! I have such a great passion for helping pets and will treat your babies like they’re my own!
Clayton Village cat parents share their Rover experiences
Mary was absolutely amazing! She was always on time and stayed the entire time that was allotted which was a big deal to us. She sent the best photos of our cats and made sure they were always content either playing or giving them their squeezies (churrus). Highly recommend booking with her, very trustworthy and kind lady.
