“Luvith and Gary are the best sitters we have ever had. Daily picture updates, daily walks and playtime. My dog seemed happy in pictures and happy when got home. I will 100% recommend for sitting. Will use many times over!”


“Katelyn was wonderful to our dog! She constantly sends updates with pictures and provided excellent care for him as she was his own. Will definitely be a repeat customer!”

About: I am a 34-year-old veteran who is searching for something to do with my time since I work from home. I have one dog and two cats who of which are rescues. Nola is a beagle/bull terrier mix and has the "hunter" trait and constantly tracking down critters in the yard. Our two cats are Siamese and an unknown Mix. I believe their attitudes show they know after being rescued they get a renewed lease on life and are enjoying every second. Working from home I have full access to letting them out and go for walks often. We have a spare bedroom so they can be separated from other animals if they need a break, or feeding. Two cats and one dog. We do not have a fenced yard but will ensure they remain on leashes at all times when they are outside for everyone’s safety!
“Highly recommend!! Brandy and her family were great with our dog. Excellent communication, quick response, and it’s very clear they love animals. She responded on really short notice and was fantastic to work with. Will book again!”

About: My name is Lilly and I am a huge lover of animals. I started a pet sitting/walking business when I was 9. I work for a technology company out of the Ridgeland/Hattiesburg area. I rescued Milo from Southern Pines in 2022. I was a foster failure from Hub City in 2024. They are my BABIES. My absolute pride and joy. I took a break dog sitting for a while, but I am back to meet some new babies! I have the ability to work from home. Both of my dogs have some energy. They love the play in the water hose or play fetch. I live in a friendly neighborhood with a fenced in backyard. I also offer boarding inside my home. Otherwise I am more than happy to make drop in visits throughout the day and night at your home. My dogs love to make new friends. They never had a problem sharing toys or show signs of food aggression
“Miranda was great! She provided us with photos on a regular basis, she let us know if there were any issues and was very accommodating. Our dog just turned one and we have only had him for a couple of months and so we haven't had him completely trained but Miranda dealt with him super well and was flexible when interacting with him. Bravo got a ton of exercise and loved time with the kids and other dogs. Overall we were very satisfied with Miranda's services.”
About: I have grown up with animals my entire life. My first pet was a stray cat I named Smokey when I was 3 years old. We rescued my first dog, Lucky, from the pound for my fourth Christmas. I was gifted my first chocolate lab, Wesson, for my 6th birthday. I rescued a litter of kittens who’s mom got ran over by a car when I was 10. I still have two of those cats to this day - Prince and Tiggy (14 years old, happy, and spoiled rotten). When I went off to college I adopted my soul dog, a black lab I named Enzo, from the Humane Society. Unfortunately, he passed away in November of last year. The point is, I’m a genuine animal lover who will treat your pets like my own - because that’s what they’ll be in my care. Nothing brings me more joy than a dog licking my face or a cat rubbing against my leg. I promise your babies are safe with me. Not only will they be safe, they’ll be happy :) I’m currently working full time Monday through Friday 8-5. I can walk dogs, check on pets, play with them, etc. before 8 AM, during my lunch break 12-1, and after work (5 PM). I am completely open and free on Saturdays and Sundays. My apartment has a fenced in dog park right across from my apartment building that is very rarely used, but in good condition. I have two cats that I can keep locked on one side of the house if your animals prefer no company :). I am very flexible and can adjust to most needs your babies might have!

About: I’ve Been around Dogs for most of my life. From my dogs to my neighbors and friends dogs. I have a very strong passion for animals because of it. I’m mostly home with my pets.. So I asked my self why shouldn’t I make a job out of something I enjoy and already do. I will enjoy getting to spend time with ur fur babies. I look forwards to meeting each and everyone of you. Lmk if you have any questions regarding my services.
About: I’ve loved dogs my whole life—I grew up with them until I left for college and couldn’t bring them with me. I know how to handle both puppies, with all their energy and training needs, and senior dogs who just need patience and comfort. I’m reliable, I’ll treat your dog like my own, and I’ll always keep you updated so you know they’re happy and cared for. I have a full time job but I’m a college soccer coach so I have a lot of flexibility and places I can bring the pups. I’m basically alyss free I grew up in a super clean and disciplined household where home meant everything. Because of that, I’ve always been big on keeping things neat and taking care of a space like it’s my own. When I’m in someone’s home, I make sure it stays tidy, organized, and safe while I’m also caring for their pets. I know how important it is to come back to a house that feels the same way you left it—if not better. So while the pets get plenty of love, attention, and routine, I’m also looking out for the home itself.
About: I have a love for all animals, as a child growing up I have always wanted to be a Veterinarian Assistant. I began doing foster care for dogs in 2020 after doing this for a while I felt a much greater need to help even more. I began my own dog rescue in 2020. I walk, play, love and care for each animal. I have rescued and rehomed several dogs to safe and loving homes. I treat them as if they were my own. The unbreakable bond between pets and their people is something that will forever warm my heart! I’m currently working part time. I’m available after work and on my off days. Just message me and we can make things work! I’m more than happy to help! I have three fur-babies of my own and they love to run around and play outside, there is 7-acres of land, and the best part is not by any main roads, it’s private. I also walk my dogs or let them play inside with some toys. Depending on your pet and your instructions for your pet, I’ll make sure that your pet and you as well feel comfortable with things. If it’s a client’s home then whatever instructions are given I’ll make sure to go by!
