“Carrie dropped in to feed my cat Sam over the Christmas holidays, and I couldn’t be more pleased. We had a meet and greet the day before we left town, and Carrie and Sam had an immediate connection.”
“This was our first time booking with Madison, and she was great! She was super communicative and sent multiple photos of our cats at each drop in visit. We came home to everything in order. Would definitely recommend her!”
About: I have owned cats and dogs my entire life, and have experience in walking/tending to all ages and sizes of dogs. I am available 24/7 and have reliable transportation. I am a college student home for my summer break. I currently do not have another job, so I am available 7 days a week. I am able to walk and size or age dogs, as well as care for them. I also am very skilled in taming dogs of all varieties.
“Stephanie was genuinely attentive and adaptable to my needs. She responded well to my cat’s unique personality, and it was heartwarming to see my usually shy male cat begin to open up to her so quickly—she treated her with real love and kindness. I am truly grateful!”
“Destiny was fantastic! She was great with our two cats, who both require medication and special food instructions. All her communications were prompt, professional, and informative, which helped put our minds at ease as first time rover users. Will definitely book her again.”
“Jennifer was fantastic! We had never used a pet sitter before, and we really lucked out. She was very communicative and sent lots of updates, including photos and video. She obviously really likes animals, and what’s more, our cat, who’s usually shy and hides from strangers, really liked her! He came out and even played some. We won’t hesitate to book again instead of boarding. Highly recommended!”
“Sasha did an excellent job with our two boys while we were away. She went way above expectation, sent pictures at every visit, and kept us up to date with how they were doing. Will 100% rebook with her when we need someone to care for our dogs, and would recommend her to anyone in need of a caretaker for their pets.”
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 have many years experience in providing quality care for dogs and cats of all sizes, types and ages. Its truly a passion of mine e.

I am able to walk, crate, feed and/or just love on your pet all day long! i am able to listen to instructions given and make sure your pet is comfortable, fed and in a safe environment when left alone
About: I have taken care of neighbors and friends pets before, for 4 years. I absolutely love helping people with their fur-babies whenever I am needed:) I am currently working part-time in tupelo, so I am available throughout the week!! I am also available on the weekends, I typically work 12-10pm. When I am pet sitting at someone’s home, I feel better because the fur-baby is more relaxed at their own home versus my home, where they have not been and may feel anxious.
About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was little. My neighbors would asked me to watch, feed, play, and walked them for as long as I remember. I can deal with all different types of dogs. If they need a bath, I will give them a bath. I can give medication if needed. Im currently working part time, but I have plenty of time to play and walk them as long you are able to contact me beforehand to see what I can do. I have three friendly dogs if something happens I can care for them at home. I can crate them if needed. I can keep you updated throughout the day if it helps you throughout your day too.
About: Just like you, I prefer the company of a sweet loyal pupper or the hard-won affection of a sassy kitty-cat over Jen from the office. I own a small home aviary where I breed the smallest of exotic parrots- called Parrotlets- and hand raise them as companion pets. I will afford your furbaby all the respect, patience, and genuine care that you would yourself if you could be there, and I’ll explain to them that momma has to work to afford that next pair of shoes they’ll be eating the first chance they get. I own a small home aviary breeding exotic birds, but at this moment all my pairs are resting (I like them to rest between every clutch (egg laying) and so I have plenty of available time to tend to your most vulnerable and helpless of family members whenever you should need. I live on two acres of open land, but if boarding overnight I would of course prefer to crate indoors at bedtime and depending on the pet and the owner’s wishes I am not opposed to letting a well behaved furbaby run around the house like one of us at will in between potty breaks and walks/playtime outside. Each pet is different and requires their own parent-approved game plan. Plan

“Rob is very good with pets. He’s taken care of several People’s pets in the past, including my personal pets on several occasions. He’s very dependable !”
miriam h.
“Miriam Houston is a fantastic animal lover! As her mother, I allowed her to adopt and Foster many many dogs over the years. She is stellar at getting them to learn commands, potty training and socializing them. Since she was 12 years old she's always asked, pretty much once a month, to go out to the animal shelters so she can walk the dogs and give them attention. She is a high energy individual. She loves spending time with animals and has an immediate attraction to all animals. She has literally never met a dog that didn't love her! She is also always on time and commits to her schedule without excuses. You definitely want someone like her to care for your animals.”
Madison G.
