5. Jasmine C.
“Jasmine is a very caring and patient person, who's very in-tune with animals and their feelings. She seems to know just when they want to eat, walk, play, or just relax. She also cleans up after them as needs be and notices when they're out of sorts. There's no one besides myself that I trust more to look after my pets than Jasmine.”


6. Milena S.
“Milena has taken wonderful care of my cats, and I couldn’t recommend her more! She genuinely loves animals and has a natural way with them. Having grown up with cats and now caring for two dogs that are like her children, she truly understands how to provide the best care. I always feel at ease knowing my pets are in her hands! You will love her, she is an angel.”

About: Hello! I am an experienced dog walker and animal caretaker. I am a lover of all animals and have had a variety of animals as pets throughout my life. I have had cats, dogs, fish, reptiles, and hamsters, and can provide care for any of these animals. I am comfortable with dogs and cats of all sizes and abilities and can provide any care they need. Prior to moving to Mississippi, I primarily used Wag (see my reviews in the photos), which I noticed isn’t very popular here. I have a flexible schedule and I’m hoping to continue to build my client list here on Rover. Please reach out if you have any questions, I look forward to meeting your four-legged best friend/s! I currently work full-time from home and travel occasionally. I am able to walk dogs or complete drop-ins early in the morning, during my lunch break, after my work day, and anytime on the weekends. Although my 3 cats are used to family dogs visiting our home, I am unfortunately unable to board any cats or dogs in my home due to the space of my apartment. However, I’m happy to sit in your home, stay as needed, and complete drop-ins while you’re away.


8. Laura C.
“Laura has been our pet sitter for the last 4 years. She is loving to our 2 dogs and is responsive with questions. She sends frequent photos and updates of our dogs. She’s the best, and I recommend her to every dog owner I know!”


9. Shardee M.
“Shardee was a great pet sitter! She took care of my dog just the way I would! My dog wasn't ready to go home! Lol!”


10. Elizabeth D.

“Elizabeth has provided excellent care for our dog many times (both for overnight pet sitting & periodic daytime walking & interaction). She loves animals, is trustworthy, dependable, & always attentive to any special instructions. Elizabeth sends us fun updates so we know our pup is being cared for by someone who really cares.”


11. Makayla W.
About: I've taken care of a wide variety of cats and dogs from a young age. Even working at a pet store and under the wing of professional animal care. I am currently in college and can accept care during weekends and some weekdays, Tuesdays and Thursdays are good from mornings til 2pm. Mondays and Wednesdays after 4pm - 8pm ( Fridays Are okay on base to base schedule) I stay in a dorm, so home sitting wouldn't work for me. Working for my clients your pet will be safe and well taken care of.


12. Kylarr M.
About: I have a Scottish Terrier back at home who I potty trained and taught tricks to within 2 months of getting her. I value patience and love when caring for animals. So I’ll love your fur baby as much as I love mine. I currently am a college student with all morning classes. I play volleyball for the school but we currently aren’t in season. This allows me all afternoon to take good care of your pup! I have a decent size yard that allows for your pup to be able to play and roam free. I also have ample space in the house if your pup wants to chill and just spread out! If it is best that they’re crated that’s fine with me as well!


13. Lauren S.
“We met Lauren when she was working at our dog's day care. Lauren has house sat for us several times and cared for our dog and two cats. We found her to be a true animal lover who was attentive to the needs of our pets. Our dog was fed, walked, exercised and pampered. The cats also enjoyed cuddles and care. On one occasion, our cat became ill while we were out of the country. Lauren alerted us and took the cat to the vet securing the care she needed. While sitting for us, Lauren would occasionally send pictures of our furry friends and it was nice to see them having fun in her care. Lauren has been consistently responsible. We trust her with our pets and home. I would highly recommend her as a house/pet sitter.”


14. Richard P.
About: I've been around dogs my whole life. I grew up with three of them and always enjoyed taking care of them – playing with them, taking them for walks, feeding them, and giving them baths. I am a law student in town with a flexible schedule you can trust. As a third year law student and part time worker, I have a surprisingly flexible schedule and would love to dedicate my free time to caring for dogs. I'm available anytime Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. I have a flexible week day schedule and can often make other days work as well. In my home, your pet can enjoy a securely fenced yard and a calm, clean environment. I live in a peaceful neighborhood, perfect for walks and playtime. I'm also happy to provide care in your home, ensuring your pet's routine remains undisturbed.


15. Casey D.

“Casey is the best! She always walks Delta a long distance instead of just having him outside for 30 minutes. He is always tired and happy after a walk with her. She makes sure he gets energy out, uses the restroom, and is happy. She’s always on time and sends me amazing photos of Delta!”


16. Karigan T.
About: Hello pet parents! My name is Karigan, and I am a high school English teacher. I have 3 cats of my own, and I am passionate about helping busy families give their fur babies the love they need. Growing up, my family always had a houseful of animals and I genuinely miss the companionship. I enjoy walking, playing, and just spending time with pets. I am pretty relaxed when it comes with taking care of animals—couches, beds, and kitchen scraps are always available. I have over ten years of experience in taking care of animals. I will do everything in my power to give your pet the love and care it needs. As a teacher, I am at work 8-3:30 Monday through Friday. Outside of those hours, I am almost always available to help with pet care. While I no longer offer boarding in my own home, I thoroughly enjoy taking care of pets in my clients’ homes. After the initial meeting with clients, I am sure to take notes on specific care requirements for each individual pet. I maintain a clean home for my clients to return to.

“Taylor is a wonderful pet caregiver—loving, responsible, and trustworthy. Your pets will feel safe and happy with him. You can feel confident about leaving your pets in his care, knowing they will be treated with love and attention. I highly recommend his services!”


19. Ricki M.
About: I’ve been trusted to care for relatives, neighbors, friends, and coworkers’ pets for 10 years now. Because of my veterinary medical knowledge, I’m able to carefully discern and understand different medications, symptoms and characteristics associated with your individual pet. Also, I’m a great cuddle buddy and excellent ball-thrower! I am a full time veterinary technician during the week; however, I really enjoy going on long walks in the evenings and weekends. If you prefer for your pets to be interacted with throughout the day, your pet can participate in doggie daycare at my vet clinic. They provide pictures and videos everyday that your pet is in attendance. I would be more than happy to bring your pet with me to and from home everyday. Unfortunately, I am not offering overnight stays at this time. I will update my services whenever I am able to offer this service again. Thank you for understanding!

Having witnessed James's exceptional care firsthand, I can attest to his dedication to providing safe, loving attention to pets. James has a natural connection with animals, ensuring they feel comfortable and cherished under his watch. Not only does James prioritize the well-being of the pets in their care, but his commitment to outstanding customer service is equally impressive. James goes above and beyond to tailor their services to meet the unique needs of each furry friend. His reliability and genuine passion for animals make him an invaluable asset to the Rover community. I am confident that James will exceed your expectations and provide an experience that leaves both pet and parent smiling.”
