About: I've been a dog owner for many years and understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. I currently have two Miniature Dachshunds, so I'm experienced with dogs of different personalities, routines, and care needs. I have hands-on experience with daily walks, feeding schedules, administering basic medications when needed, playtime, and providing plenty of love and attention. I know that every dog is unique, and I take the time to learn each pet's routine so they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you're away. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, playing fetch, or simply relaxing with company, I'll make sure they receive the personalized care and attention they deserve. My goal is to treat every pet like they're part of my own family and give you peace of mind while you're away. I am a graduate student at Ole Miss. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide reliable pet care throughout the week. I'm available for morning, afternoon, and evening visits, as well as walks and overnight care when needed. I enjoy spending time with animals, so I make it a priority to give each pet plenty of attention, exercise, and care while sticking to their normal routine as closely as possible. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet's routine, feeding schedule, exercise needs, and any special instructions before every visit. I always make sure pets have fresh water, plenty of attention, and a clean, safe environment. When caring for pets in a client's home, I respect your space and follow your instructions closely so your pet can stay comfortable in their familiar environment. I make sure doors, gates, and leashes are secure during walks and outdoor time, and I'll keep you updated with photos and messages so you know your pet is happy and well cared for while you're away.
“Leila is a great pet sitter! She is so good with dogs and really goes out of her way to make sure the dog is comfortable and feels secure. She is very good about sending pics and videos. I highly recommend Leila”
“Abigal did a great job watching Bo. Was very communicative and very accommodating to any time changing. Was also extremely nice in all our conversations and communications. Sent me pictures and gave updates throughout my trip. Would absolutely leave my dog with Abigal again if I went somewhere.”

“Jenna is very sweet and made our anxious little dog feel right at home. We especially appreciate that she was able to accommodate us on short notice as we were in town for one day. We didn't worry a bit about him being in her hands while we attended an event. Great communication and photos. Highly recommend!”

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life. I’ve grown up caring for 5 dogs, a cat, a tortoise, and plenty of other pets over the years, so being around animals feels very natural to me.

At our house during college, we’ve had 3 cats, so I’m very used to caring for animals daily and understanding different personalities and routines. I’ve also helped take care of foster dogs from the animal shelter, which taught me patience and how to work with pets that may be nervous or need extra attention. I’ll always treat your pets like they’re my own and make sure they get lots of love, attention, and proper care.

Im currently working part time, but I have plenty of time to play and walk them as long you are able to contact me beforehand to see what I can do. I have three friendly dogs if something happens I can care for them at home. I can crate them if needed. I can keep you updated throughout the day if it helps you throughout your day too.
About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 7 years old! We have a German Shepard and mini poodle. I really enjoy dog sitting and getting to know and love your pet! I’m currently working full time, in the city of New Albany. I have a pretty flexible job, so I am able to leave when needed! My home is next door to my job, so I am able to check on dogs who are in my home at anytime. I am available any time on the weekends. I enjoy watching pets. I will be sure the pet does not mess up the home and will ensure that we will play together. If there is a fenced in yard, we will play there and go on walks.
About: My husband and I are furtunate enough to work from home. Along with our adult daughter, we take pleasure in caring for, and showering love on, our furry guests. I began my career as a professional dog trainer/behaviorist in Southern California in 1996. It wasn't until after our move to Las Vegas in 2002 that my business was truly established. However, in 2011, we unexpectedly uprooted and moved to Houston, TX, and found myself heading into a new venture in the dog industry. During our 9 years in Texas, I become involved with other canine endeavors, including competing in AKC Conformation with our Akitas and Whippets and occasionally assisting in breed-specific and all-breed rescue organizations. After moving to northwest Mississippi in August 2020, we decided to continue offering our boarding and pet care services because of how much we enjoy it. In addition to playing with dogs, I have a part-time position in my home, which enables me to give each of our canine guests plenty of attention. My husband works full-time from home and is always available as a backup in case I have to run off to an appointment. Also living in our home are our two young adult daughters, Beth & Rachel. We are all dog lovers who also happen to be "dog-wise". Our own dogs are friendly and well-behaved and enjoy having fur-friends come to visit. Admittedly, we do have a good amount of dogs, but we have established a great routine and, if our fur-guest isn't too sure at first, we have plenty of options in keeping dogs separated until our fur-guest feels comfortable and happy. We have a considerable amount of experience at pairing dogs in appropriate play groups according to size, temperament and activity level. Our home is situated on nearly 2 acres with about a half-acre securely fenced for dogs to play in. Our active guests will have tons of fun outside playing with each other and chasing squirrels, in addition to spending a large portion of the day and all night relaxing inside our home. Our more sedentary guests have plenty of laps, couch space, and dog beds to laze around on. While crates are a useful tool for keeping dogs comfortable and safe, especially during the brief periods nobody is home, rest assured your sweet babies will not be locked in a crate for long periods. We also have extensive experience with many types of animals, such as chickens, goats, donkeys and horses and offer drop-in visits, where we come to your home to feed, exercise, and interact with your pet(s) and/or farm animals. Our fee is "per visit" and is the same regardless of the number of pets/animals. Additionally, I offer house sitting on a case-by-case basis where I spend nights at your home. Again, our "per night" fee is the same regardless of the number and type of pets/animals in your home or on your property. However, a premium may be assessed if the care of livestock is fairly substantial. Currently, we are only serving the areas of Holly Springs, Byhalia, and Red Banks for drop-in visits but are available to drive longer distances for house sitting. Feel free to request more information. We have a securely fenced yard and friendly dogs to keep your dog company during the periods I am working in my home office. Our weekends are typically not very busy, but there are 4 of us available to love and care for your pet. We begin each day with a quick stretch of the legs and a potty break followed by breakfast then playtime outside. Dogs are divided into small groups according to size and play style then rotated between fun time in our fenced yard and relaxing in our home on dog beds and couches. Evenings are often spent playing family games or watching a movie. For bedtime, dogs can sleep in our rooms, on the couch, or in their crate, depending on where they're most comfortable.
About: I have taken care of pets since I was 15. I house-sat for a month and took care of 4 cats and one dog at once. I have taken care of lizards, fish, hamsters, dogs, cats, and rabbits.

I have plenty of free time at the moment and am currently looking for a part-time job so I will have plenty of time to care for your animals.

About: I am a pet lover myself. I have had experience with many family/friends’ pets in the past including feeding and walking while they’re absent. My main experience begins with my golden doodle/blue heeler mix. I am equipped with experience dealing with high-energy dogs that hate to be on a leash and are in need of a big area for play time . Second comes my black Labrador retriever. He is a timid, large-for-his-age dog that is afraid of almost of everything. In which case, I carry him to quiet areas for walks. To me, pet care is by far the most rewarding and stress-reliever anyone could have. It provides time to enjoy the environment without feeling pressured. A fluffy partner always makes walks/caring better as well. From my experience, the best way is to always give them an area where they are free to play around! And also taking time to provide them company as well

“Abigal did a great job watching Bo. Was very communicative and very accommodating to any time changing. Was also extremely nice in all our conversations and communications. Sent me pictures and gave updates throughout my trip. Would absolutely leave my dog with Abigal again if I went somewhere.”
About: I have been taking care of pets for as long as I can remember. I’ve had numerous different types of animals, even exotic ones! I would love to watch y’all’s furry babies. Thank you all! I’m available week days and weekends due to a limited work and school schedule so I have plenty of time to cater to pets needs. My neighborhood has a fenced in dog park that pets love to run around in or if your pet likes to snuggle I’m so down to cuddle.
“Wonderful and accommodating when a problem with another sitter arose while I was out of state. They took great care of my pet and assured me he was doing fine so I could go about my weekend without worry.”

I only have 1 class a day during the week, 50 minutes long so I have plenty of time on my hands to take care and love your baby!! I care for pets in my home by providing food and water, plenty of treats and toys. I also love to walk so of course walking the dog every 2-4 hours depending on age. And if I am hired to do a drop in I will take the dog out and play with the dog!!

About: I have always been the biggest animal lover and have an Irish doodle named Jeter! I take my dog on walks everyday and have a lot of experience watching and walking friends and family’s dogs. Having a dog of my own has given me extensive hands on experience with pet care. Daily walks, feeding, playtime, and maintaining a consistent routine are already a natural part of my daily schedule. I genuinely love caring for dogs and prioritize their safety, exercise, and emotional well being everyday. I stick closely to each pet’s normal routine to keep them comfortable and stress free. For overnight stays I provide feeding, walks, playtime, and lots of attention while keeping your home tidy and secure. During walks and drop ins, I focus on safety, exercise, potty breaks, feeding, and fresh water. I always send updates and photos so you know your pet is happy and well cared for. Making sure your dog is safe, happy, and well taken care of is my top priority!
About: I got my first cat when I was 7 and first dog when I was 9. Growing up with pets in the home I have learned the behaviours and loving attributes that all pets offer. I trained my dog to sit, shake, down, and rest a treat on her nose! Seeing my dogs are the best part of my day and getting the opportunity to meet yours would make it even better! I’m a sophomore at Ole Miss who misses her dogs at home and would love to be with yours! My schedule varys by the day so feel free to reach out! I care for pets with the upmost love, care and protection. I know how I would want my dogs to be treated in another persons hands so I will live up to that standard with your animals.
About: Hi! I’m currently a Clinical Mental Health Counseling master’s student at Ole Miss. My passion is animal-assisted therapy because I’ve seen firsthand how much our furry friends can positively impact our lives. I grew up on a farm and have a dog of my own, so I understand that pets are family. I’ll make it my priority to ensure your pets feel safe, loved, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I also have experience working with dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and temperaments through my time as a veterinary assistant. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, senior, or needs a little extra patience, I’m comfortable providing the care they need. I’m also happy to administer medications and help with other routine care if needed. I know how reassuring it is to receive updates while you’re away, so I’ll be sure to send plenty of photos and messages so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy and in good hands. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry family members! I work full times but am able to manage! I don’t start work till Jan 5th so I am 100% free until then!! Just send me a message! I offer whatever kind of care your animals needs. This includes boarding, feeding healthy meals (i cook a lot fot my own dogs but it’s up to you), taking to the bathroom, going on walks, playing, and cuddles!
