House Sitting in Lafayette Springs

About: What sets me apart is the level of care, knowledge, and attention I bring to every pet. I’ve been pet sitting consistently since 2018 and have built lasting relationships with many repeat clients who trust me with their pets year after year. I have experience administering medications, working extensively with senior pets, and providing individualized care based on each animal’s unique needs and personality. I also have some experience reinforcing training and maintaining consistency with established commands and routines. My background includes a degree in Biological Sciences, where I studied subjects such as animal behavior and physiology. This education, combined with years of hands-on experience, has made me highly observant and attentive to changes in behavior, appetite, mobility, and overall well-being. Whether your pet needs extra patience, specialized care, plenty of exercise, or simply lots of affection, I prioritize their health, comfort, and happiness while treating them like a member of my own family. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. During the week, I work from 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM and have a lunch break that allows me to come home for midday potty breaks, walks, and check-ins. I typically walk in the mornings before work, return home at lunch, and then spend additional time walking, playing, and relaxing with pets after work. On weekends, my schedule is even more flexible. Whether I’m spending time around the house, visiting a local park, or enjoying time around town, I love having dogs join me when appropriate. I intentionally plan my weekends around the pets in my care, and activities are always tailored to each animal’s age, energy level, personality, and needs. Whether your pet prefers long walks, playtime, quiet companionship, or extra support as a senior, they’ll receive plenty of attention, affection, and individualized care. When caring for pets in their own home, my goal is to keep their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow feeding schedules, exercise routines, medication instructions, and any other care preferences provided by the owner. I understand that pets are often most comfortable in their familiar environment, so I focus on providing consistent care, companionship, and attention while you’re away. I am highly observant and attentive to changes in behavior, appetite, energy levels, or overall well-being, and I communicate regularly with owners through updates and photos. Whether your pet needs a brisk walk, playtime, cuddles on the couch, medication administration, or extra patience as a senior pet, I strive to make them feel safe, loved, and comfortable until you return home.

“Laney was absolutely fantastic! Our pups immediately fell in love with her, and she cared for them as if they were hers. I highly recommend her to anyone seeking a kind, caring, and very thorough caretaker. She became part of our family and we look forward to leveraging her services again.”

About: I enjoy walking dogs and I have taken care of dogs for 11 years. I pet sit for friends and family when they are out of town, and they always trust me to keep their dogs safe. I am a teacher and I would love to use my free time taking care of animals. I am off work for the summer break. I am a reliable and considerate person. I keep a consistent routine with dogs. I treat every like they are my own and I have a friendly dog.

“Natalie is a wonderful young lady who is working while in college. Our golden doodle loves her and our family does too! Thank you Natalie for keeping Saige for us during Ole Miss graduation week! We will call on you again and look forward to seeing you soon!”

“Maddie is AMAZING! She sent us constant updates of our girls (we have sweet, but problematic girls). She took Griffey to the vet for us when decided she needed an allergy shot and did so well with her! When we came home, we saw she had vacuumed, changed our bedding, and even folded our toilet paper 😭😭😭 we will always be using her for future sitting needs!”

About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember, and I've been pet sitting since I was a freshman in high school. Over the years, I've cared for pets with a wide range of personalities, needs, and routines. I genuinely love spending time with animals and strive to provide dependable, attentive care that helps pets feel comfortable and gives owners peace of mind. Whether it's playtime, walks, feeding, or simply providing companionship, I'll treat your pets with the same love and care I would give my own. I am currently available seven days a week and have a flexible schedule, allowing me to provide reliable, attentive care for your pets at all times! I live in a spacious condo in The Reserve in Oxford, which provides plenty of room for pets to feel comfortable and at home. While my backyard is not fenced, it offers a large open area for supervised outdoor time, and I currently have no immediate neighbors, creating a quiet environment for pets to enjoy. Inside, there is ample space for dogs and cats to relax, play, and move around freely based on their individual personalities and comfort levels. I also have experience caring for pets in my home, including housing and caring for one of my roommate's dogs for an extended period this past May. Whether your pet enjoys being active outdoors, playing inside, or simply relaxing in a calm environment, I am committed to providing a safe, attentive, and loving experience that helps them feel comfortable while you're away.

“Carsen did a great job taking care of our dogs and house even keeping up with our elderly pug’s meds multiple times daily. Would definitely recommend for any dog or house sitting needs!”

About: I’ve been working with animals since I was little and have grown up on a farm around a wide range of animals. Living on a farm taught me responsibility, patience, and how to care for animals with different personalities and needs. I currently work at Pampered Paws and volunteer at animal shelters, giving me hands-on experience with both cats and dogs. I aspire to become a veterinarian, so I truly love every opportunity to care for animals. My goal is always to make pets feel safe, loved, and comfortable while their owners are away. I am currently working part-time so I have plenty of time to take care of your fur babies. I also have a very flexible schedule so I am able to change things around to accommodate you. I also ensure that my calendar is up to date so I can be confident that I can give your dogs all the love and attention they deserve. In my clients’ homes, I always respect the routines, rules, and boundaries they set so their pets can stay comfortable in a familiar environment. I make sure to ask detailed questions about each pet’s schedule, behavior, preferences, and any special care needs so I can provide the best care possible. Safety and trust are very important to me, and I always treat both pets and homes with respect. In my own home, I follow the same approach by creating a safe, clean, and calm environment for every pet in my care. My goal is always to make pets feel comfortable, loved, and stress-free while their owners are away.

“Very friendly and nice person. I will definitely use her services again.”

About: I’ve had dogs since I was little — both big and small breeds. Caring for pets has always been second nature to me, and I make sure every dog feels loved, safe, and happy. From daily walks to playtime and snuggles, I treat every pup like part of the family I have class Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday mornings from 11-12:15 but I’m free most other times for walks, drop-ins, or playtime! I’m super flexible with afternoons, evenings, and usually weekends. I don’t have a fenced yard, but I make up for it with plenty of walks and outdoor playtime. I have a small yard for quick potty breaks and always make sure pups are safe, leashed, and cared for like my own.

About: I have cared for my dogs, cats, and horses since I was a little girl. My chihuahua was handicap for 15 years and I was her caretaker. I have always had a strong connection and love for all animals and enjoy spending time with them. I have also had experience taking care of neighbors dogs while they have been on trips. I’m reliable, caring, and always focused on making pets feel safe and loved in your absence. I’m currently attending Ole Miss and I am a Junior. I only have 1 in-person class on Tuesdays and Thursdays. This will leave plenty of free time to take care of your puppy or cat! I would make friends with your pet allowing them trust me and spend time playing and cuddling with them. I would respect your home and space while being with your baby! I will follow all instructions and aim to make your pet feel comfortable and maintain their normal routine.
