“Callie was very good with our cat, Shadow. She sent lots of pictures and made sure that all his needs were met and also made sure to keep us updated throughout his stay. Definitely would recommend to anyone who needs a sitter!”

“We had a great experience! They took wonderful care of our dogs and made us feel completely comfortable and confident while we were away. Our pups came home happy and well cared for, and the printed photos they sent home with us were such a thoughtful touch. We would absolutely book with them again and highly recommend them!”

“Sara did a great job during the boarding. She sent many of pictures and videos so I can enjoy my trip without any worries. Grett looked enjoying and comfortable during the stay! I’ll definitely book the service again :) Thanks Sara!”

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 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.
About: I’m new to professional pet sitting, but I’ve been an animal lover my whole life and currently have two dogs of my own who absolutely love other animals. Caring for them has given me daily hands-on experience with feeding routines, walks, playtime, and lots of patience and attention. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I’ll treat your dog with the same love and care I give my own. I’m responsible, attentive, and excited to build experience while providing a safe and happy environment for your pup. I work Monday through Friday from 8am–5pm, but I’m available for morning and evening care, walks, drop-ins, and weekend services. Pet care is already part of my daily routine since I have two dogs of my own, so I’m used to structured feeding schedules, walks, and giving lots of attention before and after work. On weekends, I have more flexibility for extended care and quality time. We live on private land with plenty of space for safe outdoor time. While our property is not fenced, I always use a leash for walks and outdoor time to ensure your pet’s safety. I’m very mindful and attentive when it comes to supervision. I also have two friendly dogs who love other animals, and I carefully monitor all interactions to make sure everyone feels comfortable. Your pet will be treated with the same care and responsibility I give my own.
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.
“Kattie was great with my 2 dogs. She was quick to respond, very accommodating for last minute booking and overall pleasant to work with. She took great care of my dogs and they left Kattie's house happy. Would recommend for your pet needs.”

About: I have taken care of many kinds of dogs. I am always excited to take care of dogs. They are my best friend. I love them. I am willing to work Full-time every day of the week. I will board dogs if needed. I will take care of them like they are my own. I will give them their medications if needed. I will walk them as far as the owner wants me to walk them. Dogs are always welcome.
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: Ever since I can remember I have felt very deeply about animals and their wellbeing; my dream since I was a kid was to become a Vet, and so I did! Not only do I love to be around animals, but I also have the knowledge and patience to take care of their needs, healthcare, and wellbeing. I have always taken care of our family pets. The feeding, the grooming, and of course, the walks in the park and exercise :) For the past 6 years I have taken care of all my friends and relatives pets, when they go to travel, and even tend them when they get sick and need special treatment at home. Pet care fits well into my routine. I’m available for evening pet sitting and care in clients’ homes, and I also care for pets staying with me, where they aren’t left alone for long periods. On weekends, I’m available all day. I make sure pets receive consistent attention, care, and companionship so they feel comfortable and well cared for. I can care for pets in my clients’ homes, always following their routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I’m careful about safety, making sure doors and gates are secure and maintaining a clean, calm environment. In my home, I have a fenced yard and two friendly kittens who are used to being around other animals. Pets are always supervised and introduced safely in a relaxed, loving space.

About: I've been amongst animals of all kinds my entire life; Pets, livestock, and even the occasional non-domesticated animal! I'd love to do some Cat-Sitting and Check-ins in my free time, so that's why I'm here! I currently own two Border Collie-mix dogs and one female indoor Tabby cat named Delilah, but I've had many a cat throughout my life. 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!
About: Hello, there! Thanks for stopping by, we live on a little family farm located in the prairie of Columbus, Ms. Our little slice of heaven we like to call it. We have a few of our own critters here, too! Our 3 y old Great Dane, Beni. Our lab mix, Belle. 3 outdoor cats, and 1 diary cow! We all love happy visitors here! I love caring for all animals and would love to provide care to your fur babies in your own home, too!! I currently work full time, but I have a very flexible schedule to accommodate your needs. Whether I’m giving care in my home or yours! We have a 13 acre unfenced farm, we are able to crate your dog, if needed. If caring for your pet in your own home, I am able to administer medications, walk dogs, feed, and water them.
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 had cats for as long as I can remember. My neighbors growing up always had me cat sit when they were not around. I’ve always cherished the sweetness of cats as well as their crazy side! Love them to death!
“Very pleased with Sara’s care for our senior dog. She was very thoughtful when she did her drop in and got him all set up on the couch with his ramp and some HGTV. Will definitely use Sara again!”

About: Hello! I have been a volunteer with the Humane Society since 2018 and have experience doing all sorts of things! I have overseen meet and greets with new owners, fed/watered dogs on a schedule, cleaned yards, walked dogs, watched over playtime in the yards with multiple dogs, dealt with puppies, trained puppies, handled senior dogs, and handled cats as well. I went through orientation and training in order to be in this position at the shelter, so I have a good understanding of animal behavior and treatment. I also have two dogs of my own back at home and have been around dogs my whole life. (I’m okay with snakes too, I’ve had one of my own). I have been a pet sitter for family friends as well and have been told that they love the way I care for their babies! I am an avid animal lover and plan to become a veterinary surgeon. I am currently at Mississippi State University in the pre-vet concentration of my animal and dairy sciences major! I am home from college for the summer, so my schedule is super open! I work part-time and shifts are only about 4 hours, so that leaves me plenty of time to give your pets the quality time that they deserve! I will be very dedicated to giving your fur babies the best care possible. My own dog is super active and she gets walked for an hour in the mornings, another shorter walk mid-day (weather permitting), and then another hour long walk in the evenings with plenty of play time in between! I will send daily updates and photos if you are away from home and I am doing drop in visits! I know that when pet parents are away, pets can become lonely and feel left out but I am here to make sure that they have fun and have a happy time! I have such a great passion for helping pets and will treat your babies like they’re my own!

About: I have had experience taking care of cars since my family got our first one about 12 years ago. I have experience taking care of sick cats and administering oral medications. One of my cats loves to go outside on a leash, and I am more than happy to take any adventure cats on walks!

About: My dog Lucy and I love to play. We go for 30-minute walks (at least) every day, run around and play fetch in the backyard, and play tug of war with her toys throughout the day. We would love for your pet to join us! When I was little, I was the hired pet sitter in the neighborhood, plus I also had my own pets growing up. As an adult, I've had my own pets and have been hired to pet-sit for several friends' dogs and cats, both short- and long-term gigs, over the years. I have experience administering oral medication to both dogs and cats and some dog grooming experience (although grooming is not my passion, ha). Weekends are when I consistently have the most time to focus on your pet, but I sometimes have some availability on weekdays. Just ask and I'll see what I can do! We have a fenced-in backyard (tall wooden fence) that is the size of an additional lot. The yard has a few shade trees and is mostly open grass. We have several toys to play with, both in the backyard and inside, including a water sprinkler. Your dog will not be left unattended in my care unless I need to run an errand briefly and they are secured according to your instructions (crated, etc.) We have a large dog crate your dog can use if you'd like so you don't have to bring yours back and forth. There are several safe places to go for walks nearby with lots of grassy areas.

About: Hey everyone! I work at The Dawg House playground and salon, and over the years, I’ve also had the privilege of working at three veterinary clinics.

As a student at Mississippi State University, my availability is primarily limited to the afternoon. However, I encourage you to reach out, as I would be delighted to discuss potential arrangements! I treat animals as if they were my own, always striving to give them the best possible care. Since animals cannot speak for themselves, I firmly believe that we are the ones who speak on their behalf.

About: I've taken care of dogs since I was a child. They are an absolute joy. Friends have trusted me to look after their pets many times, and their pets absolutely adore me just as much as I adore them. I believe in giving pets ample love and attention, as well as activities so they get exercise and they're not bored. I do not work my full-time job on weekends, which gives me the opportunity to give my undivided attention to your fur baby. Although I work during the week, I will take breaks to check in on your pets and allow them to take potty breaks. I am happy to have dogs in my home, or keep them company at your your home. I will keep them active by going on walks and visiting the dog park, if that is something you think they would enjoy. I do not have children or other pets, so your pet will be 100% safe.

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.
About: I’m new to professional pet sitting, but I’ve been an animal lover my whole life and currently have two dogs of my own who absolutely love other animals. Caring for them has given me daily hands-on experience with feeding routines, walks, playtime, and lots of patience and attention. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I’ll treat your dog with the same love and care I give my own. I’m responsible, attentive, and excited to build experience while providing a safe and happy environment for your pup. I work Monday through Friday from 8am–5pm, but I’m available for morning and evening care, walks, drop-ins, and weekend services. Pet care is already part of my daily routine since I have two dogs of my own, so I’m used to structured feeding schedules, walks, and giving lots of attention before and after work. On weekends, I have more flexibility for extended care and quality time. We live on private land with plenty of space for safe outdoor time. While our property is not fenced, I always use a leash for walks and outdoor time to ensure your pet’s safety. I’m very mindful and attentive when it comes to supervision. I also have two friendly dogs who love other animals, and I carefully monitor all interactions to make sure everyone feels comfortable. Your pet will be treated with the same care and responsibility I give my own.
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.
“Kattie was great with my 2 dogs. She was quick to respond, very accommodating for last minute booking and overall pleasant to work with. She took great care of my dogs and they left Kattie's house happy. Would recommend for your pet needs.”

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: Ever since I can remember I have felt very deeply about animals and their wellbeing; my dream since I was a kid was to become a Vet, and so I did! Not only do I love to be around animals, but I also have the knowledge and patience to take care of their needs, healthcare, and wellbeing. I have always taken care of our family pets. The feeding, the grooming, and of course, the walks in the park and exercise :) For the past 6 years I have taken care of all my friends and relatives pets, when they go to travel, and even tend them when they get sick and need special treatment at home. Pet care fits well into my routine. I’m available for evening pet sitting and care in clients’ homes, and I also care for pets staying with me, where they aren’t left alone for long periods. On weekends, I’m available all day. I make sure pets receive consistent attention, care, and companionship so they feel comfortable and well cared for. I can care for pets in my clients’ homes, always following their routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I’m careful about safety, making sure doors and gates are secure and maintaining a clean, calm environment. In my home, I have a fenced yard and two friendly kittens who are used to being around other animals. Pets are always supervised and introduced safely in a relaxed, loving space.
