“I highly recommend Madison and Joshua. I needed cat sitters every other day for a month, and they were wonderful to work with throughout. One or both of them would visit for a half hour, taking care of litter boxes, food, and water, feeding the fish, and pulling in any mail or packages for me. I loved getting the photos in the 'report card' after each visit, and knowing the cats had consistent visitors who cared while I was gone. I will hire them anytime I'm traveling!”

About: I am incredibly patient with young and elderly animals. I have experience with both large and small breeds. I can be available on short notice, which makes me perfect for unplanned events. My pet care will be my main priority, so fitting it in to my schedule is no issue. I can be available whenever I am needed for long or short stays! I will care for others pets with the same love and respect that I give to my own animals. While in a clients home, I will respect the house, as well as the pets place in the home.
About: My name is Malorie! I grew up on a farm in MS and currently live in Starkville. I've cared for dogs, cats, horses, chickens, goats, and cows since I was a child. I have a 10 year old chocolate lab named Ellie May, and a 1 year old red fox lab named Jenni. They’re both hunting dogs I’ve trained myself. Taking care of animals isn’t just a “job” for me, it’s what I love. And I’d love to watch yours :) message me for more info! Pet care fits into my daily routine as a first priority because I love animals. I’m currently a college student, so I have pretty open free time! I care for people’s pets in my home (or their home) the same way I care for my own pet. I do this because I would want someone to do the same for my dog - treating her with the utmost care.
About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats and I’m comfortable with a wide range of responsibilities. With dogs, I’m experienced in walking, feeding, basic training reinforcement, and providing plenty of exercise and attention. With cats, I handle feeding schedules, litter box cleaning, playtime, and administering basic medications when needed. I understand that every animal has its own personality and needs, and I always provide patient, dependable, and loving care. I currently work a morning shift, which makes me available in the afternoons, evenings, and on weekends for pet care. This allows me to provide dedicated attention for walks, drop-in visits, feeding, and check-ins later in the day. I’m reliable, flexible after work hours, and committed to making sure your pets are well cared for and comfortable Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities while caring for them in your home. I respect your space and follow all care instructions exactly as given, including feeding schedules, medications, routines, and home security preferences. I make sure doors, gates, and crates are always secured, and I provide updates with photos so you can feel confident while you’re away. I aim to keep your pet’s environment calm, clean, and consistent to reduce stress and help them feel safe
About: I was raised caring for all types of animals, but I have a particular love for dogs and cats! Friends, family, and neighbors have trusted me with their pets for over 10 years of my life. My experience includes feeding, administering medications, walking, playtime, and overnight care. As an adult, I've cared for my own dogs for the past 5+ years and understand how important it is to leave your pet with someone dependable who will love and care them as much as you do! My schedule is very flexible this summer, allowing me to give pets plenty of attention, playtime, and supervision throughout the day. I'm available for boarding, drop-ins, and walks during both weekdays and weekends. I am happy to adapt to each pet's usual routine and needs! My husband and I have a large fence yard and a home with plenty of space for pets to feel comfortable. We also have a friendly male collie/retriever mix who enjoys playing, but he can be easily separated if your dog prefers their own space. I'm comfortable using crates or separate rooms as needed, and I'm happy to arrange a meet-and-greet with my dog to help ensure everyone feels safe and relaxed. When caring for pets in a client's home, I do my best to keep their normal environment and routines consistent to reduce stress. I'm respectful of your home and able to follow detailed instructions. I'm also happy to send updates and photos so you can feel connected while away. Whether in my home or yours, my goal is to provide a clean and loving environment that feels as close to home as possible for every pet in my care.
“Kayla was great. She responded quickly to my messages and did everything we asked. She sent me pics of my babies, which helped me know they were ok and being taken care of. We will definitely book her again when we travel.”

“This is our 3rd time having Kelly sit for our pups and she is always wonderful. She takes great care of my pups and my house and I never have any worries while I am away.”

“Really appreciated Sadie and her good attentive care for our older pup. We were new to the area and knew nobody - our dog is 13 and deaf. Sadie listened to my instructions and sent daily pictures and updates which helped me to worry less and enjoy our weekend away!”

“I met Melissa in January when my girl had CCL surgery. She is super sweet, thoughtful and great with my high maintenance pups. She is careful to seek all the information and ask questions so she can understand your pets needs. Super fabulous”

About: Hello, there! My name is Jake and I am currently taking online classes. I grew up and am still living on our family farm. I have been around animals my whole life. We have always had 3 or 4 dogs and cats. I have always wanted to have a career with animals. I spend a lot of time outdoors, with my dogs, on our farm. I have experience with and have owned 100+ pound dogs as well as smaller dogs. I have owned and taken care of senior dogs and I am comfortable giving medications. I also have experience with cats, birds, and other smaller animals. I really love being around all animals. I believe it is important to communicate and send pictures, so that you know your pet is being loved. Please contact me with any questions
“We cant be happier with Lyndsay. She is very patient with our fur babies even though they are a little barky. :) They are warming to her every session. She keeps us informed and is very pleasant to deal with.”

“Amanda was a wonderful sitter. She hung out with Scout, pampered him, played with him, took him on walks and sent me funny pictures and videos of him. He has already told me that he cant wait for her to come back and see him again. ?”
About: I have taken care of animals since I was 8. I have a dog who turns 8 this year, which I take full responsibility, that includes: vet visits, grooming, and activities. I also have trained her to do cool tricks! I've taken care of my sister's 2 dogs as well while she was on vacation. I have a lot of experience with small animals too! I have the whole summer off from college, and I am recovering from my illness, so I believe that taking care of a pet will fit into my schedule without interrupting doctor visits. It also is not as straining as a retail job. I will make sure to check for areas that could cause harm to an animal and provide a solution to the problem to ensure safety. I am also schedule sensitive, so I make sure that animals get fed on time.
“Hannah was great in taking care of our cats while we were out of town! She made everything simple and eased any worries we had about leaving our cats for two weeks. She's awesome and so sweet!”
