About: I totally understand the anxiety of your pet being in someone else’s care. My attentiveness, playfulness, punctuality, and respect ensures that your pet is genuinely cared for. Whether it’s a walk or pet sitting while you’re away, your pet is in good hands. I work remotely and can work with you to choose the ideal times for me to take care of your pets! I have reliable transportation and understand that pets need their activity and food at consistent times. When I am petsitting, I am sure to care for the pet’s needs (food, water, potty, play). I make sure to leave the space how I found it, sweep up litter, clean bowls, etc. I ensure that the door is locked when I leave. I make sure no pets run out the door when I am coming in. Your pets are my focus! I am also happy to bring in your mail, bring in packages, and water plants; just let me know!

“10/10 experience with Mickey. She walks my dog 2x and every day I come home after he’s been on a walk with her, he’s always so happy!! Mickey always send pictures of Ruby and updates his review card for the day. Definitely the best choice for our family!”


“Brianna was AMAZING!!! Just moving to the area, we had to find a new rover very quickly and were so beyond lucky to have found Brianna. Our dog was so comfortable with her and she goes above and beyond to treat our dog like her own. She was so communicative throughout the entire visit and so respectful of our home. Would recommend her to absolutely everyone!!”


About: I have been pet sitting for about 6 years now and have loved every second of it! There is nothing more important to me than making sure your pet is cared for and loved the way they deserve to be! Animals are such a gift and I just love getting to love on them! I am currently a student at Ole Miss and have a very flexible schedule! I am available during the week as well as weekends and can be flexible to fit whatever needs you might have! I live in a small house with room for 1-2 pets at a time! My neighborhood has grassy areas for pets to play and use the restroom and lots of room for walks!


About: I am an animal-lover at heart. I am reliable, punctual and patient. I'm always happy to stop by for a visit, go for a walk, or have some good old-fashioned play time. Snuggles and tummy rubs are my specialty. I've cared for pets of all ages and sizes. I have my own dog, Finley. He's my best pal, and I hope to bring the same love and care I have for him to your furry family member. I'm currently out of school for the summer, so my schedule is fairly open. Let me know your pet's needs and we can work out a time that is best for you. I'll do what it takes to make sure your pet feels comfortable and safe. I'm very patient, so if your friend is shy and needs a little time to get to know me, I'm happy to sit with them. If your pal is a social butterfly, we can jump straight to toys and snuggles. I'll send pictures and updates to keep you in the loop.

About: I worked at a doggy day care as my summer job where I fed, cleaned up after, played with, and gave medicine to 20 plus dogs at a time. I gained even more experience working with all types of dogs, from puppies and small dogs to large golden retrievers and pit-bulls. I also cared for the dogs I had growing up. We had a golden doodle that we loved playing with, and she had three puppies. Raising those three puppies was one of the messiest but extremely fun experiences of my life that i wouldn’t have traded for anything. I work part time for Ole Miss as a tutor, but I will not receive any hours during Christmas break. I will be extremely free during Christmas break and would love to fill that time up with caring for pets. I will also be largely available during the school year as well. I can meet your dogs needs. If they need to be in a kennel I have no problem handling bigger dogs. I also have experience walking bigger dogs or any type of dog and would be more than happy to take them on walks if desired. If they like to play outside or inside there is not much I love more than playing with pets.

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.

About: I have four years of experience of taking care of dogs. I am a kind, energetic, and hardworking individual that’s ready to take care of your pets.

I am fully prepared to take care of your pets in your home. I will be respectful of your home while making sure your pets are well taken care of.

About: I’ve cared for both cats and dogs for over a decade and understand that each pet has their own unique personality and needs. From energetic walks and play sessions to quiet companionship, special diets, and medication routines, I’m experienced with pets of all ages and temperaments. Whether your pet is shy, playful, or senior in age, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for while you're away. I work from home, which gives me a flexible schedule and allows me to easily incorporate pet care into my daily routine. Whether your pet needs early morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening playtime, I’m able to adjust to their needs and provide consistent, attentive care throughout the day. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to keep their routine as consistent and stress-free as possible. I follow any instructions closely, whether that involves feeding schedules, walks, medication, or playtime, and treat your home with the same respect I give my own. I’m also happy to send photo updates so you can feel confident that your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for while you're away.

I am available to stop by and love, care, and check on your animal in the morning, on my lunch break, and even after work! I offer my pets the best level of care I realistically can and make sure to provide love, care, attention, and enrichment to them everyday.

About: I’ve taken care of many dogs including sitting for the same families for 2+ years. I am genuine and will care for your pets like they are mine. I am a college student with mostly online classes, this allows for a lot of availability for house and pet sitting. I have a part time job as well but this shouldn’t interfere with my ability to care for your pet. I care for pets the same way I care for my own pets. I like schedules and will stick to them to ensure your pet is as comfortable as possible.

I focus on keeping your pet’s routine consistent and stress-free. I make sure they have fresh food and water, a clean environment, and plenty of attention, whether that’s playtime, walks, or simply companionship.
