“AWESOME!!! Kept me updated with lengthy text and pictures each day. Super easy to communicate with and is SO reasonably priced!!! She will be my dogs permanent for now on! 10/10!!”


“I felt good knowing my pup was in good hands and was given updates on how she’s been doing will photos and videos. Definitely will use them again for future.”


“I was very anxious about leaving my 2 dogs with anyone I didn’t know. We have 2 Rottweilers and they have never stayed anywhere overnight before. When I contacted Morgan she responded immediately. Then agreed to meet us to be sure it would be a good fit before dropping them off. Once we met her she answered all of our questions and was extremely accommodating! Deacon and Diamond seemed to love her dog Pete and it would only be the three of them until we picked them up. Morgan let them sleep in the floor of her bedroom and sent pictures throughout their stay. I was definitely more relaxed knowing they were doing ok! I would definitely recommend Morgan as a sitter!”


About: Apart from taking care of my own and friends pets my whole life, I’m also employed at an animal hospital/resort. I am responsible for enriching their time with us through activities, meds, and proper feeding. I also perform baths and I am certified for nail trims, anal glands, and ear cleaning. I am working part time at the Animal hospital currently, so I have lots of free time to take care of furry friends! I also spend most of my time at home! Although I do stay in an apartment, I have access to the dog park right up the road! I am more than willing to carry your pup to the dog park multiple times a day if needed, it’s almost a 5 min drive! If sitting at your place, I’m still happy to take them to the dog park! I can also send updates on how you’re pets doing throughout the day with pictures!

About: I’ve been caring for pets for over 6 years and have looked after dogs and cats of all ages and sizes. I’m comfortable with puppy training, giving medication, and making sure senior pets feel comfortable. Friends, neighbors, and family always trust me to feed, walk, play with, and love their pets like they’re my own. My goal is to keep every pet happy, safe, and well cared for. Pet care is a regular part of my daily and weekly life. I plan my schedule around walks, feeding times, and play sessions to make sure each pet gets the time, attention, and care they deserve. Whether I’m doing drop-ins or overnights, I treat it like a priority—not a side job. In a client’s home, I stick to the pet’s usual routine to keep them comfortable—feeding, walking, and playing just like their owner would. I keep the space clean, follow any special instructions, and give plenty of attention. If I’m caring for a pet in my home, I make sure they have a quiet, safe space with lots of love and supervision.

“Jennifer and Family were awesome!!! They accepted my puppy on very short notice and were super accommodating and communicative with daily updates. I worried that Cash would be high maintenance for them since he is a young puppy without other dogs around, but he had a blast!! Would definitely recommend and will see if they are available for future stays. Thanks so much!”


“Mason literally was a like saver. We were visiting from New Orleans for a wedding in Oxford. The hotel was pet friendly but we realized quickly that our newest puppy ( who we had never traveled with) was a howler when left in the hotel room. Last minute we reached out to Mason who agreed to watch both our pups at the last minute. She was extremely accommodating and sent pictures and text messages to us the entire duration of their stay! I would 100% use Mason again.”

About: I’ve loved and cared for dogs since I was a kid. Friends and neighbors have always trusted me with their furry family members, no matter their age. I have a Chihuahua named ChiChi, who I miss dearly as she’s back home. Let me share that same love and care with your pet! I am a full-time student at Ole Miss looking for part-time sitting, but I am able to fit your pet care into my weekly schedule. I have an outdoor area that the dogs can play in. I live next to a walking trail that I can take them out on.

About: I have had dogs my entire life. I have been responsible of my two for 8 years now. I am highly trusted among family and friends with their fur babies so I know I’d be a perfect fit for you!

It does not matter what the service is I will do everything in my power to make sure your dogs are safe and having fun! I also have a dog park and I love to run with the pups!!

About: I am amazing with animals! I will treat your baby like he/she is my own. I will keep you updated with pictures and text messages, so you will never have to worry about your babies. I will make the time to take care of your pet daily and weekly. I am always willing to help and can drop everything to help. You can count on me! I will let your pup out in a fenced yard to run loose for a little and I would also walk your pet so they can let go of some energy. Of course, if needed, I will feed them and make sure they have clean water. Your doggy would have plenty of toys, and fun to last a life time at my house or their’s. They will have the time of their life when I have or watch after them.

I’m super open to any suggestions on how I can help care for your dog and make sure they’re ok when you return! Waking dogs would be my favorite as it gets them exercise and gets them out of the house for a little

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my hands-on experience with a variety of dog breeds and ages. I have worked with large breed puppies, such as Great Pyrenees, as well as medium to large dogs of various ages! Growing up around dogs has given me an understanding of their needs and behaviors. Whether it’s a playful puppy or calmer adult dog, I make sure to give them the attention and care they need! As a student, my schedule tends to be quite flexible with varying commitments depending on the day! My class schedule allows me to adjust my routine which gives me plenty of leisure time, especially on weekends! I provide a safe and enjoyable environment for pets in my home! I have a fenced-in backyard where they can play freely, and my neighborhood has plenty of walking areas, perfect for daily walks! Additionally, there is a large park just around the corner!

About: I have had a passion for animals since childhood and currently have five rescue pups, a 5-year-old Yorkie, and two rabbits. I would like to give your pet a home away from home experience. I have years of experience with senior pets. I would love to care for your pets so that you are worry-free while you vacation or attend to other commitments. I'm a part-time pet sitter, available every other weekend and throughout the week. I offer a home-away-from-home experience for your beloved pets. Can’t wait to meet you! I have two rooms in my home dedicated to pet sitting. Whether your pup likes solitude or a crate, I ensure a home-like experience for your fur baby.

About: I have grown up with a family pet since I was 2 years old, and have been trusted by friends and family since I can remember to take care of theirs. I have raised my 2 year old puppy since I adopted him at 8 weeks, and can handle all the training that comes with it! I currently am taking 2 in person classes at Ole Miss, so my schedule is very flexible and I’m home most of the day. My nights and weekends are usually spent at home or at the park with my own puppy, who loves meeting new people and pets! I live in an apartment complex which has two fenced in dog parks and plenty of grass around the property to use on leash. I would be happy to crate your dog or administer any oral medication they might need. I can fit any accommodations you or your pet may have.

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was young and have been dog sitting since high school! I have my own dog as well! I am currently a student so I am home everyday before 8 and after 3! Besides weekends when I am home all day, Tuesday and Friday I am able to fit in pet care by noon. My husband is also home most of the time during lunch. I have an unfenced yard but also a deck that they can easily play on and keep safe! I have no problem keeping dogs in crate and with my own dog I usually like to keep him sleeping near me so we can do the same for your dog if you like!

“Carsen is the kind of person you can totally count on to take care of your pets and home like they’re their own. Super laid-back but still responsible, they make sure everything runs smoothly while you're away. Dogs love hanging out with Carsen, and even the shy ones warm up quickly.
