“Perfect. I was thrilled my skittish little girl let her pet her. The animals loved her and she did a good job. She even sent me pictures of my angels. Will definitely use her again”
“Liz is very honest and caring! She genuinely went out of her way to show she cared about her service and my cat, Vida. Would absolutely recommend her and would definitely look forward to working with her again.”
About: I have three dogs of my own and I love meeting and caring for new pets. I have experience dog sitting from puppies to senior dogs. I work during the week but evenings and weekends are usually free to care for pets. Flexible schedule allows me to leave and let pets out and care for them as needed. Due to having dogs if my own I prefer to pet sit at the client’s home to ensure their pet’s utmost safety and comfortability. I always follow all instructions left by owners and make sure their pet has a great experience while their owners are gone.
About: I haven't spent a singular year of my life without a fur companion and likely never will. I currently love 3 senior pets and appreciate every moment we have remaining. I understand the stress of leaving a pet (especially senior) and aim to offer as much calm and ease as possible. No matter the size and/or tempermant, animals deserve respect and love. They're only here for so long, so let's make that time wonderful! I just finished my first military service contract and am waiting for my next contract to begin. I am free most days and nights both weekdays and weekends. I follow specific instructions based on each individual's pet needs. I am very observant of lapses in regular behavior and react accordingly. I am no stranger to providing medication and getting creative with how to give the medication as to limit the stress on the pet. I have a large fenced in yard with free roam chickens (can be caged if needed).
“She was awesome! We left to visit family for a week and a half and she was amazing at keeping me informed of her visits. She even went to look for my Kali when she didn't come out of hiding just to make sure she was ok. Even with a hiccup in scheduling she found a solution that worked for everyone without us needing to ask. She was even willing to grab our mail for us while we were gone. Just over all an amazing sweetheart. If we go out of town in the future I would whole heartedly request her services again!”
About: I have 1 dog (Chico). I am a current USM Student studying Pre-Vet. I also am studying for my Veterinary Assisting Certification. I look forward to taking good care of your furry friends! I currently work Part-Time and my schedule for school is online this semester! I have plenty of time in my schedule for pet care and services. I will take good care of your furry friends! I will make sure there is plenty of enrichment. I will also have consistent potty breaks, feeding, and watering.
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, ages, and energy levels. whether it’s a senior pup who needs meds and slow strolls or a hyper goofball who loves to fetch for hours. I treat every dog like my own: with love, patience, and lots of belly rubs. What sets me apart? I pay attention to the little things like quirky habits, favorite nap spots, or that weird way your dog likes their toy thrown. I’m reliable, quick to communicate, and genuinely love hanging out with dogs (sometimes more than people, if we’re being honest). Whether it’s a quick walk or a weekend stay, your pup will get 100% of my care and attention. I am a PhD student at USM. I’m currently teaching and taking classes online for the summer so I have a lot of free time and flexibility. Once school starts I’ll still be pretty flexible When I care for pets in their own home, I prioritize keeping their routine consistent and stress-free. I follow your instructions closely whether it’s feeding schedules, medications, walk routines, or favorite toys and I make sure your dog feels safe, loved, and heard (yes, I talk to them like they’re people). I treat your home with the same respect I’d want for mine: clean, secure, and exactly how you left it. I also provide regular updates so you always know your pup is happy and in good hands. Your dog gets my full attention, every visit.
About: I've owned dogs and cats since I was about 9 or 10. I have no problem with walking and cleaning up after animals. I've done it for years. I'm seeking to obtain a part-time job at a supermarket, so I'll be available throughout the week and sometimes on weekends to care for your animals. The dogs that I've had in the past normally had plenty of room in the yard to roam free. I also owned smaller dogs which were kept in the house which had to same opportunities as our bigger dogs.
About: I have great experience with dogs, I have one on my own and I understand the unconditional love that is shared between them. I would love to watch your furbaby! I’m currently in season for ULM basketball but check in with me for availability! As I mentioned I have a dog on my own so I can make time. I don’t have a fenced yard but, I have play areas where I can take your furbaby and we can have a great time. I have 2yr old Long-haired German Shepherd that is a friendly butterfly and play so well with other dogs, if your dog doesn’t get along with other dogs I can have mines put up at my neighbors home.
About: Since I can remember, my family has always had cats and dogs around. My aunt and uncle raise Belgian malinois and have had German shepherds so I know a lot about both breeds! I frequently petsit for a friend who has a bull mastiff mix. In addition, I have two dogs of my own and 5 cats. I also foster as often as I can so I have experience with short term care of animals. Currently I am on summer break as a teacher so my schedule is very open. During the school year (starting mid July), I am more limited to weekends and afternoons/evenings. I have a fenced in back yard for my two dogs and they sleep inside at night. All of my cats are inside cats and have a large scratching post and plenty toys to occupy them during the day!
About: A recent graduate of Mississippi State College of Veterinary Medicine with a bachelor's in Veterinary Medical Technology! I have had pets all my life and have gained experience while in school and through volunteering, and now through currently working at a local vet office as a technician. I also have experience in pet sitting at owner's houses and through repeat clientele for pet sitting and walking. I would love to gain additional experience through pet sitting/walking. I recently graduated from the Vet Tech program at MSU and currently work at a local vet office, so this allows me to take care of pets full time on the weekends! I can also do late afternoon walks or drop ins during the weekdays after work! With experience in pet sitting and walking, I’m ready to keep your fur baby entertained or, if they prefer, just relax and give them cuddles!

About: I have the sweetest rescue pitbull who i found two years ago on the side of the highway after she got hit by a car. Poor baby was all skin and bones, had been starved and abused, and only could walk on 3 legs. Now, she’s gained 25 pounds, got fixed and vaccinated, and can walk on all legs. Now she’s my emotional support animal! She’s a total sweetheart and my best friend- even cuddles me to sleep every night :) I have actually been able to teach her how to sit, shake, and stay! Growing up my family had 4 dogs and 4 cats all of my life, so I was responsible for walking, feeding, cleaning up messes, and playing with them! I’m an online college student so i can be very flexible when it comes to scheduling and daily/weekly routines. i also have a great dog park at my complex When I am in someone’s house while pet sitting, I treat every home like it has security cameras. I’m very respectful of boundaries and safety. After feeding/walking/playing, I tidy up anything left out or any other messes. I am very friendly and have never had an animal react badly towards me.
About: I have cared for all sorts of animals growing up such as dogs, cats, horses, and chickens. We have a pet pot belly pig, Dumplin, who I've taught a few tricks 😊. I have trained a few dogs (puppy-adult) however I am not a certified/professional trainer; I just have a passion for connecting with dogs. If your pet needs someone to stop by to interact with, let out to potty, give medication, walk, brush, etc. then look no further. I will be happy to help! I currently work a full-time job, so as of right now I'm available on the weekends. I would be open to drop in after work if need be. (after 5pm) The type of care is dependent upon the species and/or breed. I will abide by the routine you and fur babies are used to. With a little extra play time of course 😋

Emily K.
“Emily would be a wonderful addition to your pet caregiver company! She took care of our sweet Champ every time we were out of town. We are very last minute people and she was always flexible and willing to put Champ on her schedule priority. One think I loved about Emily taking care of Champ is that she took time to play with him. He had some anxiety and she was always sweet to him. Another example of her love for animals is that I called her in a panic one evening, very late to help me with Champ. My husband was out of town and champ had a seizure. He was bleeding from his mouth and I couldn’t hold him and look in his mouth at the same time. She came right over and not only calmly helped him, she was so reassuring to me! I hope you consider adding Emily to your employment team! She is kind, dependable, flexible and has a heart for pets!”

Jasmine B.
“Hey there! I just wanted to say that Jasmine, is truly amazing when it comes to providing safe and loving care for pets. She has this incredible ability to connect with animals, making them feel at ease and loved. When my pets were under her care, I could see how attentive and nurturing she was always making sure they were happy and comfortable. What really sets Jasmine apart is her warm personality and the genuine love she has for all creatures. Her great customer service shines through in her communication; she’s always quick to respond and so friendly. It is clear that she isn’t just doing a job she really cares, and that makes all the difference. I could not recommend her enough!”

Candace H.
“I think she would be a good caregiver, because she is caring and an extrovert. She did a great job looking after her stepmom's dogs when she went on vacation for a week. Candace fed, bathed, played, and took them out. She also has a love for animals. She took in a dachshund, because the owner was not giving it attention. I know she can handle the responsibly of being a pet sitter.”
