About: I’ve had animals since I was five and when I was 10, I started doing dog walking and dog sitting for friends and neighbors I also started taking care of my grandmother whenever I was 16 I must spend my week playing video game watching. I’m just hanging out around the house with my animals. Sometimes I will go out on the town to do something. I take them out for walks feed them and make sure they’re comfortable in their house. Also ask questions about the animal if I need to know anything.

About: I have had dogs in my house since before I could walk and currently have a puppy of my own, she is a French bulldog, Boston terrier mix. I have volunteered at different animal shelters in the Jackson and Starkville area, taking the dogs for walks and playing with them. I always look forward to taking care of all animals, whether they are new to me or not! :) I am currently studying and taking classes for nursing school, however, I am more than capable of waking up early and coming by to check in whenever I need to. Additionally, with enough notice I could schedule in visits with my daily plans I can easily leash up pets for daily walks and follow whatever instructions are given to me to ensure the safety of your pets. My priority will be your pet’s safety.

About: Hi there! I’m Lauren, and I’m so excited to welcome your furry family member into my home! As a lifelong dog lover with lots of experience caring for dogs of all breeds and sizes, I understand how important it is to find a trustworthy and caring place for your dog when you’re away. I have a friendly, playful Staffy dog of my own who LOVES to make new friends. He great with all types of dogs, and I’ll ensure your pup has a fun time playing, socializing, and getting plenty of exercise. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime in the yard, or cozy naps inside, your dog will feel right at home. I also have experience administering medication, so if your dog needs specific care or treatment, I can handle that with ease and make sure they get the attention they need. Your dog's routine, diet, and special needs will always be a top priority. My goal is to make their stay as enjoyable and stress-free as possible, while giving them lots of love and care. I also have base access so if you are just needing a drop-in visit I would be more than happy to do so! I am available all day every Sunday through Wednesday, offering plenty of time for walks, playtime, and snuggles. I’ll make sure your dog gets all the attention and care they need during their stay. Unfortunately I work 12 hour shifts Thursday-Saturday so I will not be available on those days. I have a dog to keep your dog entertained throughout their say! I can easily create your dog if necessary, and I have separate spaces/rooms if you prefer your pup to be separated! There are plenty of beds and toys and treats all that is needed for you do bring your own food.

“I had a great experience with Payton. He has taken my dog on numerous walks and has always been flexible, supportive, and communicative. Payton has given me peace of mind knowing my dog is in good hands!”

About: Hey everyone! I work at The Dawg House playground and salon, and over the years, I’ve also had the privilege of working at three veterinary clinics. During my time at the vet clinics, I learned valuable skills like bathing dogs and cats, trimming nails, and administering medication when required. I deeply understand the responsibility of caring for your furry companions, and I’m passionate about providing them with the best possible care! As a student at Mississippi State University, my availability is primarily limited to the afternoon. However, I encourage you to reach out, as I would be delighted to discuss potential arrangements! I treat animals as if they were my own, always striving to give them the best possible care. Since animals cannot speak for themselves, I firmly believe that we are the ones who speak on their behalf.

About: My name is Britney, and I spent three rewarding years as a kennel technician before proudly joining the military. My passion for dogs and cats drives me to ensure every pet in my care enjoys a fun and safe experience. I work full time right now but can provide pet care before work, during my lunch after work and on weekend whenever needed from you! :) As a pet care provider, I offer tailored services to meet the specific needs of pets in my client's home since my dog prefers to be alone.

About: Y'all, I have a broken ankle right now and am out of commission. I expect to be available again in September 2025. I'll update my calendar once I know! My dog Lucy and I love to play. We go for 30-minute walks (at least) every day, run around and play fetch in the backyard, and play tug of war with her toys throughout the day. We would love for your pet to join us! When I was little, I was the hired pet sitter in the neighborhood, plus I also had my own pets growing up. As an adult, I've had my own pets and have been hired to pet-sit for several friends' dogs and cats, both short- and long-term gigs, over the years. I have experience administering oral medication to both dogs and cats and some dog grooming experience (although grooming is not my passion, ha). Weekends are when I consistently have the most time to focus on your pet, but I sometimes have some availability on weekdays. Just ask and I'll see what I can do! We have a fenced-in backyard (tall wooden fence) that is the size of an additional lot. The yard has a few shade trees and is mostly open grass. We have several toys to play with, both in the backyard and inside, including a water sprinkler. Your dog will not be left unattended in my care unless I need to run an errand briefly and they are secured according to your instructions (crated, etc.) We have a large dog crate your dog can use if you'd like so you don't have to bring yours back and forth. There are several safe places to go for walks nearby with lots of grassy areas.

About: Hi! I have loved all animals my whole life! I've always had a dog in the house. I have experience with all sizes of dogs from chihuahuas to Huskies! I have 3 fish, 2 dogs (Husky and Australian shepherd), and 1 chameleon! Haha I have house sit for friends and family who own cats as well. I love playing and taking them for walks and just cuddling! I am a full time student so the majority of my time is spent online doing school but I am in pilot training so I fly for a couple hours everyday, but other than that I'll be home the majority of my time. I can't offer services in my own home because my husky is reactive towards other dogs. I can care for the animals in your home though. I am very respectful and can stick to pretty much any schedule the animals need.

About: From assisting neighbors & family members to being a full time animal caretaker, in Nashville, TN - working with animals is my sincere passion. I have experience with many different breeds, including large dogs. I work enthusiastically, while maintaining a firm but gentle approach, so that your animal and I build trust, right away. I provide exercise, training and companionship as well as any other needs you may have and I'm available short notice. My schedule is flexible. I can accommodate almost any arrangements that may be required, including overnight stays and regular scheduled training & caregiving. While I can work with any animal, I primarily work with dogs. I hope that my skills and personality are a good fit for you & your companion.

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: There has never been a time in my life when I didn’t take care of some kind of animal. Mostly dogs and cats growing up. I would love to help take care of your fur friend! I work as a nurse part time. I’m happily married and we have two fun, rambunctious, sweet boys. We have 2 dogs, horses, cows and a cat. My schedule is pretty flexible and I love going out for walks whenever I can. Especially when it’s with my fur friends. We live on 100 acres down a dirt road in the middle of the country. Not much goes on around here! We have a fence, but it’s set up for cows and horses. Our dogs run free inside and out; However, the pets I sitter will stay inside and go out for walks and bathroom breaks frequently for safety guarantee.
