“Would definitely use Madison again, very communicative and sent pics of my babies while we were away! One of our cats is diabetic and needs insulin twice daily and she took care of that with no problems. Positive experience all around!”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life. Labs, Sheppards, goldens, etc I love them all. I’m very active and love to go on a nice walk or throw the ball with the dog! I currently have a block schedule for school. Only Tuesday / Thursday classes so I tend to have a pretty clear schedule on other days. I love to go on walks outside so it would be easy for me to incorporate a dog into that. I feed dogs and play with them or walk them. Dogs typically like me and feel comfortable with me around. I am clean and dependable.

About: I have grown up with and around animals my whole entire life. I have pet sat since I was 16 and I have loved it. I am currently a student at Ole Miss and have classes for about 3 hours a day. I also babysit around 3 hours a day but apart from that I am very flexible I currently have no pets, so if your pet has issues with other animals it will be no problem! I will provide excellent care for your pet
About: I’ve had a lifelong love of animals, and over the years I’ve gained hands-on experience in many areas of pet care. I’ve house sat, walked dogs of all sizes, and done regular check-ins for meal times and pee breaks. When I’m home, I’m often trusted to care for my mom’s colleagues’ pets—many of whom are doctors with busy schedules—which has taught me to be responsible, reliable, and flexible. Now that I’m away at school, I’m excited to bring that same level of care to your pets. What sets me apart is my lifelong experience with cats, my comfort with dogs, and my genuine desire to make every pet feel safe, happy, and loved as if they were my own. I’m a student, so whenever I’m not in class, I’m home and available to care for pets. That means I have plenty of time throughout the day for walks, check-ins, playtime, and cuddles. My flexible schedule makes it easy for me to fit pet care into my daily routine and give your pets the attention they deserve. In my townhome, pets have access to a safe, comfortable space with lots of attention and love. My complex has fenced-in play areas perfect for letting dogs run and play, as well as nice trails nearby for daily walks and exercise. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their routines closely—whether that’s meal times, walks, play, or just giving them company—so they feel secure and cared for in their own environment.

About: I’m a freshman in college and a lifelong dog lover with two dogs of my own. I’ve grown up caring for dogs of all ages — from energetic puppies to sweet senior dogs who need extra patience and attention. I’m very comfortable with feeding schedules, walks, playtime, administering basic medications, and giving lots of love and attention. As a freshman in college, my schedule is pretty flexible! I’m free after 12 most days and also have availability in the mornings between my classes for walks, drop-ins, or check-ins. I love being able to break up my day with some puppy time! I’m also available most afternoons and weekends, so I can easily work around your dog’s routine! I’m very attentive to routines and will follow your instructions closely — whether that’s feeding schedules, medications, crate training, or specific house rules. I’ll also send regular updates and pictures so you can feel totally at ease while you’re away!! I have two dogs of my own and have watched many dogs back home so im very reliable!

About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life. Growing up I had three dogs, one being a labrador, a golden retriever and a plot hound for 16 years. My three dogs I had since they were puppies till they were seniors one was 21 years old. One was 11 and one was 16 when they passed. Now I have two pit terriers that I have had for three years now. I grew up, always taking care of them. And taking care of my friends and neighbors dogs all throughout the years if they went out of town on a vacation or if they were just gone for the weekend I would visit and take care of them for the time being. I have taken care of a bunch of cats as well, because my friends and family have many. I have a lot of experience with taking dogs on walks especially big dogs. My three dogs were almost all 70 to 80 pounds and I would take all three of them on walks at the same time. I really enjoy being around animals and being able to take care of them. As of right now I am not working so my schedule is very flexible and I can accommodate almost every day of the week. Time or day that you need depending on your schedule, just let me know and we can definitely work something out. Right now I do live at an apartment which does not allow animals. So the space is not animal friendly at the moment. But I am working on finding a more friendly space.

About: I am skilled in handing animals of all different ages and temperaments. I have raised a kitten and a puppy from young ages and I've taken care of an elderly dog. I grew up with a rescue dog that was very sensitive and reactive and I currently have an anxious rescue back at home. due to this experience with different kinds of animals, I understand that each one is different and I am willing to work with your pets to make sure that they are 100% comfortable throughout our time together. I promise to love your pet family members (almost) as much as you do!! I have classes just about every week day morning until mid afternoon so any services that I will provide will work around that schedule! weekends are completely open for the most part. Every animal is different so I'm completely willing to follow any set of instructions that you have for me regarding the safety and care of your animals. Nothing is more important to me than the safety, wellbeing, and happiness of your pets.
About: What sets me apart is reliability and communication. You won’t have to wonder how things are going. I keep you updated and handle everything responsibly. I treat both your pet and your home with care and respect, like it’s my own. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I structure my days around consistency and reliability. I am an executive assistant and I’m used to managing schedules, so feeding times, walks, and check-ins are done on time and without shortcuts. I plan my day to make sure pets get my full attention, whether that’s active play, walks, or simply being present so they feel comfortable and not alone. I also build in time for updates to owners, so you always know how things are going. I prioritize creating a calm, safe, and predictable environment for every pet. I carefully follow all instructions, including feeding, medications, and routines, to keep things consistent. I’m very aware of surroundings during walks and in the home, making sure pets stay secure and out of unsafe situations. I treat your home with respect and keep everything clean and organized. My goal is for you to feel complete trust while you’re away, knowing your pet is cared for responsibly and attentively.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 12! I have a 15 year old miniature schnauzer as well! I am very loving when it comes to animals and take care of them with my whole being! I just recently graduated from Auburn and I am job searching as of right now! I am working part time usually on the weekends and I am about to start another job working part time as well. As of right now I am able to care for animals anytime I am not at work! I have always house sat for family’s growing up! Keeping a clean house along with caring for someone else’s animal is a huge priority for me. I love playing with dogs so if I am watching your pet, I am most likely playing with him/her! I usually like to eat when the dog eats, weird I know, but I do it with my dog back home and he loves it!
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.
About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life — from playful puppies and kittens to senior pets — and caring for them has always been second nature to me. I have hands-on experience with both dogs and cats, including training energetic puppies, providing gentle care for older pets, and everything in between. I love staying active, so you can count on plenty of walks, park adventures, and playtime to keep your furry friend happy and healthy. Beyond that, I pride myself on being attentive, reliable, and treating every pet as if they were my own. Whether it’s keeping up with a high-energy pup or offering comfort and routine to a senior companion, I make sure every pet feels loved, safe, and at ease while you’re away. Caring for pets is such a natural part of my day — I honestly can’t imagine life without it! I’m a student, and my classes are only on Thesdays and Thursdays from 9-10:15 AM and 4-5:15 PM, which leaves me plenty of time to focus on spending quality time with your pets the rest of the week. I offer boarding during both weekdays and weekends, so your up or kitty will always have company and care while you’re away. I love starting the day with morning walks or park trips to get some energy out, and in the evenings we wind down with another walk, some playtime, or extra cuddles. I’m also happy to stop by your home for drop-in visits — whether that’s feeding your cat, letting your dog out for a potty break, or giving them some attention while you’re busy. I really do treat every pet like they’re my own — making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re gone. When pets stay with me, they become part of the household! I live in a cozy house with two friendly roommates — and we don’t have any pets of our own, so your furry friend gets all the love and attention they deserve. I have a big yard that’s perfect for stretching legs and sniffing around; while it’s intended, I always use a leash to make sure every outing is safe and secure. Inside, pets have plenty of space to relax, play, and feel right at home. If I’m caring for your pet in your home, I’ll make sure their usual routine stays consistent. I can handle feeding, fresh water, walks, playtime, potty breaks, giving medicine, and of course, plenty of affection. I know every pet has their own personality and preferences, so I always take the time to learn what makes them happiest and most comfortable. Whether it’s belly rubs, fetch in the yard, or quiet snuggles on the couch, I’ll make sure your pet feels loved and cared for wherever they are. ❤️
About: I grew up constantly around cats and dogs. I remember getting in trouble as a kid because i would sit with my dog, Thor, inside the dog house my dad built for him. My moms best friend runs a shelter now but when I was little she was just known for having a lot of dogs and cats and i LOVED going to her house because I always wanted to hangout with her animals and she'd show me how she took care of specific animals that needed special care and I loved it. I also had a cat named Kitty and i would sit on the front porch and sing made up songs to him while he slept on my lap haha. Later on in life i got another cat named Blue and he was my baby. He slept on my chest every night. We woke up at the same time and went to sleep at the same time, sadly life happened and i had to rehome him but hes at a very sweet family's house and i still get to see pictures of him every once in a while. Currently I have a sweet american staffie mix, his name is Macho Man Randy Savage (Randy for short) a sweet mom and daughter were rehoming him on Facebook and I just so happened to find him and he is my best friend. He is seriously just a ball of love. He loves everyone he meets whether it's another dog or a human and while it's me and my fiance living together Im the main person that takes care of him and makes sure he potties and eats. So I have a lot of experience with pets. I just love animals. If I could have a bed full of cats and dogs that would be a dream but I'm only allowed one so I'd love to spend time with your sweet babies! I'm currently working part time at an office. Just wanna make sure I can pay my bills and what a great way to do that! I sadly do not have a fenced in yard so I take Randy on walks through the neighborhood next to ours cause he still gets all the sniffs and excitement and I don't have to worry about him running into the street and when the weather is nice he LOVES to go to the dog park and hes not very good at playing fetch but he loves playing "throw the ball over and over but I wont bring it back" haha and at least at the park I know hes safe in an enclosed space.
About: My whole life I have grown up with dogs, cats, hamsters and guinea pigs in the house. In high school I started pet sitting for families around the neighborhood. My senior year of high school I had more than 100+ service hours at Pet Welfare on Eglin Air Force Base. I worked with both the dogs and cats. Dog duties were walking, feeding, giving medication, and cleaning down kennels. Cat duties were feeding, cleaning litter boxes and sanitizing the room. and ofc loving on all of them and begging my parents to adopt every single one. I’m currently a full time student at Ole Miss although my in person classes are not very demanding. My Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays and Sundays tend to be my least busiest days although each day varies so please reach out! I know how important your pets are to you and so I make sure to treat them with divinity and respect. I take my dog out often throughout the day and would do the same for your fur babies, with as many walks and potty breaks they need.
About: I personally have animals of my own specifically three dogs of different breeds and sizes that I take care of when i’m home. I have also volunteered my time at the oxford animals shelter and I have become accustomed to caring for cats and dogs of varying sizes, breeds, and needs. I am also able to administer medicine and give baths when needed. I do go to school at the university of mississippi so i have class through the week. However my classes don’t start till 1 pm and i usually finish around 5 pm. Outside of that my schedule is very flexible. I have 1 very sweet and friendly dog to play with your fur baby and plenty of space to go on walks. However i prefer going to the dog park and other activities vary based on what service I am providing.
