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 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 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.

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.

“Erin is responsive and thorough -- you know you can trust her with your pet. She did an excellent job on the drop-in visit for my cat. I'll definitely be using her services again!”
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!
About: Neighbors, family, and friends have all relied on me in the past with cat sitting from check-ins to house sitting. I have taken care of highly opinionated, shy, elderly, young, and energetic felines. No matter what their temperament, I will make sure that your cat is loved and taken care of!
“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!”
“Lexi watched our two cats for a one day drop in. She seems to be good with cats and followed my instructions. Her boyfriend also comes with her for safety reasons. She was communicative”
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!
“Everything was absolutely amazing Dakota has great communication extremely hard working and very caring, attentive and punctual documents every moment and keeps you updated on the pets 10/10 highly recommended for all pet needs will 100% always book if available”
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.
“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!”
“Britney took very good care of my kitty while I was gone. My cat is very skittish when it comes to new people, so she tends to hide. Britney went the extra mile to make sure she atleast heard her in the house. She also made sure she had food, water and cleaned her kitty box. I would highly recommend her to take care of your pets!”
About: Since I can remember I’ve always been surrounded by animals especially dogs. I’ve had about 3 dogs of my own but have cared for well over 20 in my entire life. I remember growing up with my grandparents I would always wake up early to go out into the yard with my grandfather to tend to his 8 maybe even 10 dogs (he has a big heart for animals so maybe it was a lot more). I’d go and greet them all, I enjoyed every bit of it, they’d even have to yell at me to come inside to rest or eat.( I definitely caved) But growing up like that, seeing my grandparents love for animals carried over to me and I one day was able to give all that love to puppies of my own. I now have the privilege to do so with other peoples pup and get paid??! Sounds like heaven to me! I am a full time student with no job so the time and days I have set really fit my schedule. Im always ahead on my work so i’m usually just laying around doing nothing or in the gym here and there so to be able to spend that time outside with a pup would do me some justice! I am always keeping an eye out for my pup ensuring he’s having fun but also safely. Charlie (my puppy) is leash trained but also can walk without one so I definitely have to keep an eye on him to be sure he’s not getting into things he shouldn’t. I can guarantee that I will do the same for your pup as I do my own!

About: "I treat every dog like family — giving them love, attention, and care tailored to their unique personality. With me, your furry friend gets more than just sitting; they get a trusted companion who understands their needs and keeps them happy and safe." I am free in the mornings depending on the schedule of my school I have to be at school at 10:30 or 12:05 and I am free in the afternoons on some days but until the first weekend of May I have rehearsal from 4-6 I will respect and clean the house and clean after myself, and I am very good at following instructions and making sure that your pet will be taken care of and spoiled !

About: Hello I have worked at a veterinarian clinic in my home town for 3+ years now and I am looking for some jobs here in Starkville while I am away and would love to help take care of any animals.

I may need to run random errands. Your pet won’t be unattended for longer than you are comfortable with. We can discuss what your specific needs/wants are prior to pet care.
