About: I currently work at a vet clinic as a vet assistant. I have to make sure the animals are clean and that their cages are too and do any other kennel work. As well as putting owners and their pets in rooms before the vet sees them and I also will assist when anyone asks me whether it is just holding a dog, or drawing blood, etc. I own a cat here at college and 3 dogs back home. I’m currently a student at Mississippi State. But have a lot of off time when not in class. And especially during the summer I can give your pets a lot of attention. I currently have 3 dogs, a cat, and a turtle. I regularly feed my pets. I let out my dog regularly to go to the bathroom. I clean out my turtle tank regularly as well. I also have to give my dogs medicine regularly and clean out my dogs ears. I also will bath then regularly. I have a cat that stays with me at college too.

About: I’ve had pets since I was a child. I worked for a vet clinic for a year. Really good with animals, love to play and give attention and cuddles! I am a stay at home mom so we would be able to go on walks in the park or just have fun in the back yard with the animals! I accommodate to whatever you need me to do. If you’d like/want me to stay with your pet I’d love to! Very flexible for whatever you’d like!

Jasmine was an awesome pet sitter watching our two dogs and cat while we were out of town. She stepped in last minute to watch our animals and also house sit at the same time. Very professional and loving toward our pets and frequently sent update photos to let us know how everyone was doing. 5 stars! Highly recommend!

About: Hi, my name is Sara! Ever since I was a little girl, animals have always been a passion of mine. I got my first dog at the age of 2 and haven't been without an animal since. I will treat all animals as if they were my own! That includes walks, playtime, petting, cuddle and so much more! I previously worked at a veterinarian's office for 3 years and never once did I get tired of taking care of them. If your animals have any specific needs (dosing oral medication, daily brushing, etc) I will happily do it. I am a real estate agent in the Golden Triangle area so my schedule is flexible most days as well. If you have any questions or would like to know anything more, please let me know! Thank you! As of right now, I am available most days and times to take care, play, walk, etc. with your pets! Whatever they need, I am here! Just let me know. I am not currently able to bring any animals to my home, but I will take every precaution needed while taking care of your pet in your home!

About: I've had dogs in my family since I was in diapers, and I promise to treat yours with the same care I do my own pets. If I've listed myself as available, taking care of dogs is all I've got planned for that day, so you can rely on me for walks and drop ins. I have 2x pit mixes that I can offer for socialization, and intend to be available for drop in visits and walks as required by customers.

About: I am almost 30 years old, I’ve have had dogs my whole life growing up and then I had a pit mix, a Doberman, and another pit and currently have a blue heeler! I have taken classes to learn how to best interact with all animals! I’m currently going back to school to become an equine massage therapist and would love to help out as many people as I can while I’m going back to school! I also have a 4.5 year old little girl! She is in school until 3pm everyday, I do not mind having her with me if you and your baby (dog, cat, etc) is ok with her! I am very reliable and looking forward to meeting all these new wonderful personalities! I can do anywhere between Starkville and Mathiston! I currently work on a farm part time so my availability is pretty flexible! I am in and out of Starkville and Mathiston daily between work, daughters school, and home! I always treat animals with a high respect, they are way too good for people and deserve to be loved and played with as much as possible!

About: I have had experience with cats of all ages and temperaments since I was a small child. Currently I have a senior cat who gets medication and urinary care food every day. I’ve grown up with dogs and have plenty of experience walking them. I work from home so I am able to devote full attention to your pet! I also have access to getting on the AFB if you are a military pet parent. Being around animals calms me and I enjoy dogs just as much as cats! When I visit my parents I take their dogs on runs and love playing ball with them. I am unable to cat/dog sit at my house since my cat does not have experience with dogs/cats. I am only available for drop in visits at your home at this time. If you book house sitting with me, I will stay at your home during the day to care for your pet but leave in the evening. If I am caring for your dog, they will receive 2 30-min walks and several potty breaks.

Sarah is so sweet to my dog and spoils him rotten! She helps keep my dog, Winston when we go out of town and I’ve never had an issue. I was hate taking Winston somewhere where dogs have to be in a crate most of the day, so I have a peace of mind knowing my Winston is having the best time and will be in great care with Sarah!
