Alexandria was flexible with a few last minute changes. She took great care of my pets, including my sick bunny who unwillingly had to take oral medications.

Paula was great keeping our small dog in our home. She sent pictures daily and from her comments I could tell she liked our dog and was having fun with him. She also left the house in great shape. I will definitely use her again!

Kyra is amazing! I used her for a two week long trip and didn’t have to worry about a thing. She left cat videos on as enrichment for my kitties and made more frozen enrichment treats for my dog. She let all of them sleep with her. I definitely recommend and will be booking again!

Jeffery did a great job with my cat! I hired him for a short house-sitting stint and he did quite well. Cinnamon seemed to get along well with him, and he took care of her feeding schedule expertly. The extra tasks I needed (bring in mail, set the faucets dripping for the freezer warning, etc.) were handled. Everything was in order when I came home, as far as I can tell. I definitely plan on turning to him for his help if I need it again in the future!

About: Hey I've taken care of many pets. Some of them are 3 dogs 3 cats, guinea pigs, and rabbits. I work part time so I have time for pets day or evening. I know scheduling can get crazy too so don’t hesitate to contact for a last minute booking. I also like to jog so if your pet likes to run I can incorporate that. I work part time so I have time for pets day or evening. I also like to jog so if your pet likes to run I can incorporate that. Caring for a pet is the practice of unconditional empathy. It’s the ritual of the morning walk, the comfort of a head on your lap after a long day, and the commitment to stay by their side through the energetic "zoomies" of youth and the quiet slowdown of old age.

Mary Ashley did a great job looking after my 5 dogs for a week while I was out of town. I’m pretty sure they thought she was their new mama. I wouldn’t hesitate to have her look after them again. She is responsible, patient and caring. The dogs loved her and everyone was relaxed, happy and well taken care of. All in all a fantastic pet/house sitter.

clinton, MS, 39056

About: I've fostered dogs for six years and I have been a volunteer at CARAA since I was ten. I've handled all types of dogs with different tempers, although I prefer dogs who aren't escape artists (my backyard is large and fenced in but I live next to a busy road.) Always available for your furry friend! I am currently employed at The Bank by Pizza Shack, and I take classes at MC. I am available mid days on week days, some week nights, every Friday, and most of the time on weekends. I have a big fenced in backyard to run around in, I live next to the clinton dog park, and I don't have any carpets in my home so any accidents are easy to clean.

Jeffrey was prompt, kind and most importantly, he enjoyed hanging out with our guy. He made sure he was prepped for everything, even checking in the week before. Even when there was a delay in my communication, he handled it perfectly. Highly recommend Mr. Jeffrey. Will definitely be booking him again (if he'll have us!)
