“Jacky did a great job taking care of my tuxedo kitty for a week! My normally skittish cat was very comfortable around Jacky. I received plenty of photos during the trip, too! Absolutely recommend her!”

About: Hey! My name is Sydni. I’m a former dog sledding guide ❄️😁 I cared for 24 Alaskan Huskies: weekly nail trimming, teeth and ear cleaning, weight and health checks. Experienced in dog first aid including wound treatment, tick removal, medication administration, induced vomiting. Trained in dog CPR and dog fight intervention. Have volunteered at animal shelters and cared for dogs most of my life! I recently moved to the Starkville area. My availability is pretty open! Happy to visit for special occasions or establish a regular routine with you. I prefer to have you show me where you typically walk your dog or let them out so I can stick with that routine! Let me know about feeding and medications if applicable. I’m happy to provide text updates and cute pics if you’d like! Can discuss nail trimming and ear cleaning after a few visits if that’s something that interests you and I believe the dog’s personality would allow for that.
“Lexi watched our two cats for a one day drop in. She seems to be good with cats and followed my instructions. Her boyfriend also comes with her for safety reasons. She was communicative”

“Erin is responsive and thorough -- you know you can trust her with your pet. She did an excellent job on the drop-in visit for my cat. I'll definitely be using her services again!”

About: Family and friends have relied on me for sleepovers and check-ins for their dogs over the years. I have experience with puppy and senior care as well with pill administration. Currently, I have few other obligations, so my time and day availability is very open. Also, I have no vacation plans this summer so I will be in the Starkville area. I will follows any rules or guidelines set by you, the owner, when it comes to your pet. You know your pet and house the best, so I am not shy or hesitant with asking questions when it comes to either.

“Very pleased with Sara’s care for our senior dog. She was very thoughtful when she did her drop in and got him all set up on the couch with his ramp and some HGTV. Will definitely use Sara again!”

About: Hi, I go by Milly! (Emily is my gov't name lol) and I've been amongst animals of all kinds my entire life; Pets, livestock, and even the occasional non-domesticated animal! I'm looking to mostly do Check-ins and Dog Walking services (pretty much anytime) as of right now through Rover. I currently own two Border Collie-mix dogs and one indoor cat. I grew up helping take care of our plethora of critters on and around farmland and in neighborhoods. Not only did I care for my own animals and learn their individual habits and needs, but I was also frequently hired to look after neighborhood pets of all sorts: Dogs, cats, rabbits, rodents, reptiles/amphibians, and occasionally birds. I have also fostered many dogs and cats from shelters and have helped them find homes! I've worked with animals as small as mice and as large as horses and cattle, and obviously everything in between! I'd love to pet sit, do checkups, and dog walk in my free time, so that's why I'm here! Right now my schedule is flexible, so I'd like to take advantage of that and use my free time for pet care! I am often available 8am-10am, 3pm-5pm, and anytime after 9pm (if needed)! My schedule changes weekly, and in between work hours I have my own pets that I tend to as well. I've often already fit the care of other peoples' pets (and foster animals) into my schedule, so I'm willing to work towards what's best for everyone involved. While I don't currently accept clients' pets in my home, I have absolutely no problem commuting to your home to check in on your animal! I'm good with feedings, potty breaks, playtime, walking, and just a general checking in! I'm also comfortable giving medications if I'm clearly instructed.

About: I’ve had dogs in my home all my life. I’ve taken care of them and cherished them. I love playing with them and taking them for walks. I love all dogs of all sizes. Im a proud mom of three dogs; two labradoodles and one schnauzer! I am currently in school, but my schedule is mostly open! If your pet can be at home alone for a few hours then we will be a perfect match!! I’m very comfortable with whatever you prefer for your pet. Leaving at somewhat detailed instructions would be ideal. If you own cats I will scoop the litter box if needed. I will always contact you if I don’t understand something so you can rest assured that everything is being done correctly.

About: I have worked with animals of all types over the best several years. I have personally had dogs, both big and small, in my household since I was a child. I currently have a cat who was adopted. In high school I worked with farm animals, exotics, reptiles, and birds. I am also a current fourth year vet student. I am a current first year vet school student at Mississippi State. I am available before classes on weekdays and after class (8-5), although some days I get out as early as 1:00. I am available during the evening after 5:00. I am available all weekend for your service. I am more than willing to work with every pet own to determine the best schedule for their pets. When working in a clients home, I would first set up a meeting to talk through their normal routine. I would strive to match what they do for their beloved pets throughout the service. I have experience with handling rowdy dogs, anxious animals, and untrusting pets.
About: "I treat every dog like family — giving them love, attention, and care tailored to their unique personality. With me, your furry friend gets more than just sitting; they get a trusted companion who understands their needs and keeps them happy and safe." I am free in the mornings depending on the schedule of my school I have to be at school at 10:30 or 12:05 and I am free in the afternoons on some days but until the first weekend of May I have rehearsal from 4-6 I will respect and clean the house and clean after myself, and I am very good at following instructions and making sure that your pet will be taken care of and spoiled !
“Tara did an amazing job caring for my two kitties while I was away for a week. She was very attentive and although they’re both usually very shy towards new people, they both warmed up to her and became pals. I am very grateful to have found her through Rover and would recommend her to anyone that has cats with FLUTD and are hesitant to leave them while away. She monitored their litter without me really telling her so and demonstrated her knowledge and love for animals throughout the entire week she watched them. Thank you Tara!”


About: I have been taking care of animals practically my entire life!

About: I've taken care of dogs since I was a child. They are an absolute joy. Friends have trusted me to look after their pets many times, and their pets absolutely adore me just as much as I adore them. I believe in giving pets ample love and attention, as well as activities so they get exercise and they're not bored. I do not work my full-time job on weekends, which gives me the opportunity to give my undivided attention to your fur baby. Although I work during the week, I will take breaks to check in on your pets and allow them to take potty breaks. I am happy to have dogs in my home, or keep them company at your your home. I will keep them active by going on walks and visiting the dog park, if that is something you think they would enjoy. I do not have children or other pets, so your pet will be 100% safe.
Patrick pet parents share their Rover experiences
Mary was absolutely amazing! She was always on time and stayed the entire time that was allotted which was a big deal to us. She sent the best photos of our cats and made sure they were always content either playing or giving them their squeezies (churrus). Highly recommend booking with her, very trustworthy and kind lady.
