Cat Sitting in Sturgis

“I was really anxious about leaving my new dog home alone all day while I was at work. Jaide was amazing and took such good care of her! She was so considerate and thoughtful. 10/10 would recommend!”

About: I understand how important it is for your pet(s) to be walked a certain way, have their food prepared exactly how they like it (because if not, they simply won’t touch it), and be groomed to their personal comfort. That’s why you can enjoy confidence and peace of mind knowing your pet is being cared for by a genuine animal lover who will do everything possible to make them feel safe, happy, and relaxed. I live in the county, about 18 minutes outside of Starkville, and I’m happy to provide dependable, loving care for pets in the surrounding area. I offer flexible scheduling with reliable, on-time visits, because pets thrive on routine and familiarity. Whether your pet needs a morning potty break, midday check-in, evening walk, or consistent daily care while you’re away, I make their schedule a priority. You’ll never have to worry about rushed visits or missed routines — your pet’s comfort always comes first. Safety, trust, and consistency are at the core of my care. I follow all instructions closely, maintain secure entries and exits, and keep a watchful eye on your pet’s behavior and wellbeing during every visit. You can trust that your home and your pet are always handled responsibly and with full attention to detail.

“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: "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 !

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: 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 loved and have been taken care of animals since I was a kid. Also I am currently attending school to specialize in animals behavior. I am currently working a part time job, so I have more than enough time on my hands to fit pet sitting in my schedule. I am very attentive to the pets at all time. I also make sure that anything that could possibly harm them isn’t in their vicinity.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for friends and family since I was 20. I don’t own one currently but I have owned one majority of my life. I currently work full time 8 to 5 but I’m off every weekend. My fiancé works nights and every other weekend so I do have a lot of free time at night and on the weekends. I have taken care of many friends pets in their home and always want to help out if they need me to watch their pets.

About: I work at Shaggy Hound where we treat your dogs just like our own. I take care of dogs from 3 months to 17 years old. I can administer medications and keep them on a regular schedule. I can also start training your dog basic commands while they are in my care. I believe what sets me apart from other people is my knowledge and experience. I used to work at a vet clinic for four years and now I work as a Kennel Tech. I have gained so much confidence in my ability to handle and work with animals. Pet care fits into my routine because it’s what I do for work, i work with dogs and then I come home and get to spoil my own dog and cats. I have a passion for caring for animals because they can’t do it for themselves. Your pets depend on you and that is my motivation to be better for them everyday. I care for other people’s animals with the same genuine love as I do my own. Pets are apart of the family and deserve to see love and respect always.

About: With my experience working at a Doggy Daycare for the past year and a half, I have taken care of wide variety of breeds ranging from puppies to senior dogs, and I would love to care for your pup too! I am available to walk or just spend some quality time with your doggo on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, and Sunday anytime from 3 p.m. to 10 p.m. As a guest entering my client's home, I will respect the privacy of their home and the boundaries of the dog. I will complete tasks as preferred or directed by the owner.

“Britney took very good care of my kitty while I was gone. My cat is very skittish when it comes to new people, so she tends to hide. Britney went the extra mile to make sure she atleast heard her in the house. She also made sure she had food, water and cleaned her kitty box. I would highly recommend her to take care of your pets!”

About: I have been taking care of animals practically my entire life! I have pet sat in my home town for over ten years and also spent time in Starkville pet setting as well since I came here for school! I’m am a full time student but I am in my last semester so I have plenty of time to care for and play with your pets! I always make sure to hang out with the animals and give them extra love. Your pets are my priority when you trust me with their care! I am always willing to stay and keep your pets company for as long as you wish! I always make sure to do exactly as the owner wishes when caring for the pet. I am not able to keep animals at my apartment

About: I have a half acre fenced in yard, a 20x10 run pen, have fostered senior dogs and puppies for the shelter near us, I have worked with trainers before on how to get tips for our own dogs so I can be better equipped to care of others as well. I can also care for almost any animal at my house while you need a sitter. Small to tall! (Sorry I don’t have the set up for horses) Fish to big and small dogs, all the way to reptiles! I have experience with all of them. Daily, your animal will be watched 24/7. I strive to make sure every animal in my care is cared for like my own. So, your animal will never be left for more than a hour or two (the occasional doctors appointment). They will also be taken care of just like my own in they will get PLENTY of exercise! My dogs and dogs I watch are crated when we are not home. (Of course without collars on!) I spend at the very least 2 hours per day exercising with my dogs in the backyard. High energy dogs need outlets! I have experience from Yorkies to Shepherds to Belgians.

About: I am flexible with any care your pet may need. I have a direct line to a vet clinic where I also work at. I also accept pets with prescribed medications or special needs. Exotics are also welcome, and I provide services for large animal such as horses, livestock, and/or farm animals! I try to be as flexible as possible to work around my schedule. I go to school so most visits would be extended afternoon visits, but weekends would be completely open. I require detailed and clear instructions of the exact care you want your pet to have. Such as do they have specific feed or potty times etc. all written on a hard copy. I take your special care needs seriously and like to make sure everything is done correctly; therefore, please be available to answer a text or phone call at any time.
