Cameron is really great with our pets. Our cat Bobby doesn’t like a lot of people but warms up quickly to Cameron. Cameron also sends regular updates with photos so I feel really confident in our pet’s care. We have booked him many times and will continue to book with him in the future!

About: I'm the foster coordinator at an animal shelter and I have experience training and dog sitting senior dogs, puppies, and special needs/disabled dogs! I also have experience cat sitting underage kittens who needed to be bottle fed! I worked as a doggy daycare attendee for 7 months and have more than a year experience volunteering at New Hope Animal Rescue Center. I'm very passionate about dogs and cats and love to study their behavior, health and nutrition! ❤ I work full time as a foster coordinator but can check on your precious furbabies anytime before I go into work at 9:00AM or when I get done after 5:00PM! If you live nearby enough I may also be able to check on your furbabies during my lunch break, shoot me a message and we'll sort it out! ☺️💕💕 I always make sure to respect an animal's personal space and boundaries by reading their body language to understand how they're feeling. I will do everything I can to ensure your pet feels safe and comfortable with me. ❤

About: Pets tend to feel comfortable around me quickly, and I genuinely enjoy building trust with each animal I care for. I have a deep love for all animals and take the time to play with them, give them attention, and make sure they feel safe and cared for. I focus on understanding each pet’s personality and needs so I can provide patient, attentive, and loving care that feels like home. Pet care fits naturally into my weekly routine. I’m a student at USM with Mondays fully open and most of Wednesdays available, which allows me to dedicate quality time to pet care. While Tuesdays and Thursdays are busier due to school, I still plan my schedule carefully to ensure pets receive consistent attention and care. I stay active and work out 3–5 days a week, so walks, playtime, and light cardio with dogs fit perfectly into my lifestyle. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on both engagement and safety. I make sure pets get plenty of playtime and activity while also keeping a close eye on them to ensure they are safe, comfortable, and stress-free. I follow the pet’s routine closely, provide attention and companionship, and make sure their needs are met at all times.

About: Volunteering in animal shelters, fostering, and independent animal rescue work has given me years of experience in animal behavior and care. I live on a 7 acre rural homestead with lots of room to walk dogs. We do not have a fence so visiting dogs will always be on leash. I have a large room set aside as my petsitting room so that your pet can move around freely and we can have plenty of room to play and snuggle. My personal pets love other animals and are always up to date on vetting, so if they are compatible, they are more than welcome to romp and play with my fun crew! I currently work from home as a part time tutor and homesteader, so I am available to give your pets all the attention they need. Pet care is personalized. I will discuss your animals’ needs with you and we will determine what will work best for them in the way of living and sleeping arrangements. I’m very flexible and want what is best for your fur baby. Pet care is already a staple in my daily life. I'm a nurturer by nature. I often drive transports with 40+ dogs and cats cross country to their adopters and have to care for them all! I have one rescue dog who is very timid and dog friendly. She sometimes comes with me when I dogsit and sometimes stays at home with my partner, just depending on the situation.

About: I have taken care of my families dogs since I was about 9. I have taken care of four different dogs ranging from labs to doodles to mini schnauzers. I have also taken care of both of my family's cats. I have pet sit before for a duration of six days while taking care of a dog, puppy, and cat. I love hanging out with animals, have energy to play with them often, and have the patience to handle the rowdy ones. Other than attending church on Sunday's, my schedule is very flexible. It is uncommon that I have any sorts of obligations that cannot be rescheduled. At our house we take care to keep our dogs leashed when outside both for their safety and for the ease of mind of others who are nervous around dogs. I have experience caging dogs when needed. I have also taken care of an injured dog, and have enough experience to work around dogs with minor injuries.

About: We have been dog caregivers for over 14 years and will treat your fur family just like one of our own (and she thinks she’s the High Queen!). We also offer house sitting services. We would love to care for your fur family in their own comfortable space or we can in our home. . I am a retired teacher and my husband is in the military. We have a son that’s 24 that lives at home and he is a huge dog lover. Our little Yorkie, Widget, has him wrapped around her finger. She’s an older dog and just likes to be close to you but does her own thing. She’s super laid back. I am home all the time unless it’s to run errands or an appointment here and there so my schedule is wide open. We offer house sitting services too. We have a large fenced in backyard and plenty of room to run and play. We have plenty of space in our home but will also come to your home so your fur family is comfortable in their own space.

About: I can't currently have a pet because I'm moving soon, but I love them so much. I technically have 5: 3 cats, 2 dogs. I am very active and I love hiking and walking and nature so this gives me another excuse to be outside AND with a buddy!! I have a very flexible schedule. I am currently between jobs and looking for part time. I'm independent, have a car, and am willing to drive the extra mile if people need. I understand being busy and needing a helping hand. As long as there is strong communication and set guidelines for how your pet needs to be cared I should always be able to deliver.

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life, but I started taking a more active role in their care about 9 years ago. I began by helping with family pets and more recently started doing my own pet sitting and drop-ins. I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes and personalities and have experience handling multiple dogs at once. I really enjoy getting to know each dog and figuring out what they like and need. I try to keep things calm and consistent so they feel comfortable while you’re away. I’m still building my experience, which is part of why my rates are lower right now, but I take pet care seriously and focus on giving your pet reliable, quality care. I’m currently in college. So my schedule is finicky. At school (Columbus, MS area): I’m available most afternoons. At home (Laurel/Hattiesburg, MS area): I’m mainly available on weekends and school breaks. Best times at home: Friday nights Anytime Saturday Sunday afternoons Schedule subject to change—please check my calendar for the most up-to-date availability. I live in town and like to keep dogs (and myself) active with regular walks and time outside. I pay attention to how each pet behaves so I can adjust to what they’re comfortable with, whether that’s pace, distance, or time. I will follow your instructions closely and make sure your pet stays safe and your home is respected. I also keep communication clear so you always know how things are going.

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 😋
