Personalized care for your dog or cat - Caledonia

“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!”

“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 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 have worked part time at Healing Paws Animal Hospital in Collierville, TN for 3.5 years now so I have great experience with every kind of dog: Chihuahua to Great Dane, shy to energetic, delicate post surgery, to jumping all over me! I have experience dog and house sitting for friends and family since 15 years old, and I love to meet new dogs and cats. I have 3 dogs at home that I take care of, and I have no pets in Starkville with me while at college. I worked full time for the summer at the my home animal clinic. I am a full-time student at Mississippi State University, living in an off campus apartment. I would love to check on your pets between classes and in the morning, afternoon, and at night. I also am comfortable staying in your house if that will be more comfortable for your pet! I have an individual bedroom, closet, and bathroom that your pet will stay in for their time. I live with 3 roomates who adore dogs and cats, so your pet can have interactions with them if you allow it. I also have an unfenced backyard and a big apartment campus so I would love to walk your dogs around it if you would like.

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.

“She was so reliable, on time, and sent pictures of and gave updates on my cats. Made me feel so much better about going away for a few days.”

About: I’ve taken care of cats of all ages my entire life! We had kittens growing up, in the house and through our neighborhood. As an adult, I’ve got three healthy beautiful girls (Kimchi, Olive and Maple) that are so deeply loved and I also cat sit for friends while they are out of town! I’ll stick to any feeding schedule they need, clean litter boxes and will administer any medications they might need.

“Very through and gives very detailed updates! I love that”

“Although my kitty stay hidden, Rachel did a fantastic job being there each day to give her breakfast. Very respectful and honest pet sitter. Would definitely recommend!”

About: I've cared for my family's six adorable belgian malinois and two funky cats for as long as I can remember! Additionally, being a pre-veterinary student means I've loved on animals of all temperaments (including some parrots and monkeys!) and am completely comfortable with restraint, vaccination, blood draws, and general care! I am currently doing research part-time, so I would love to keep an eye on your fur-babies in the afternoons and evenings, as well as on the weekends! I live in an apartment, but as long as your pet is leash-trained and you are comfortable with it, I am more than happy to tucker them out with an evening walk or run! I am always able to house-sit for a night as well.

About: Unfortunately, my services are temporarily on pause while I care for a family member. I will update when I'm able to accept clients again! 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.

“Kattie was so attentive and helpful! She listened to my very specific instructions and called me with need to know information! She was kind and I felt like my dog was safe with her!”

About: I've had dogs most of my life. More recently, I have two: a 8-year-old husky mix and a 4-year-old beagle mix. I have experience taking care of loved ones' cats. I have experience working in a vet clinic in the past, so I am comfortable giving medicine and caring for puppies. I am currently in between jobs/stay-at-home wife, so I will have plenty of time to care for your pets. I am available and free most days. Having two dogs myself, I am knowledgeable about safety concerns. I will take care of your pets with the same love and care as my own. If your dog loves adventures, my SUV's backseat is equipped with a car seat cover, seatbelts, toys, and chews(if desired)!

About: I have always loved and cared for all animals, my family has consistently kept at least 1 dog and 1 cat in the household, and I became an active caretaker of our animals around age 9. Although I began with my family pets, I have consistently taken care of others animals for 2 years. In that time I have worked with many dog sizes and their resulting personalities. Additionally I have experience handling multiple animals at once. I enjoy getting to know each animal and finding what they like and need. I keep things calm and consistent so they feel comfortable while you’re away. I am in college, so my schedule is subject to change—please check my calendar for the most up-to-date availability. I will be traveling between Starkville and Laurel areas in Mississippi. I live in town and like to keep dogs (and myself) active with regular walks and time outside. I pay attention to how each pet behaves so I can adjust to what they’re comfortable with, whether that’s pace, distance, or time. I will follow your instructions closely and make sure your pet stays safe and your home is respected. I will also keep communication clear to ensure you are aware of any events.
