“She was amazing with Nugget and he absolutely loved her and her pets. She sent me pictures and answered all my messages in a timely manner. I will definitely book with her again!”

“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!

“I cannot say enough good things about Wrenne caring for Willow and Felix! She is absolutely what every pet owner needs and hopes for. She didn’t just drop-in , feed them and clean the litter box , she spent time with them above and beyond what we hired her to do. She’s responsible, nurturing ,uses great judgement, and we did not worry once about them. We loved the pictures and updates she sent consistently every day! If I could give 10 stars I would! She’s wonderful!!”

“Very reliable sitter with tons of experience, I booked Colton many times , every time is very pleasant. Today he even went super early to sit my cat because he is going on vacation, such level of responsibility is very remarkable. Most importantly , he is a animal lover himself , you know you can trust him. Will book him again for my kitty. If the hundreds of sitters on rover make you indecisive, go with Colton. You won’t be disappointed. Thank you Colton , meow. And have a happy holiday 😺😺”


“Ashley went above and beyond in taking care on my beloved furry family members. I was worried about them while I was gone but she made sure they felt loved. Not only feeding my animals, but taking them on walks, giving lots of pets, and spending that extra bit of time with them has made me decide to keep Ashley on for as long as possible for when I need someone to take care of my animals. 10/10 would recommend her to anyone and everyone.”

Adventure-ready dog walkers - Laurel
About: We have been dog caregivers for over 14 years and will treat your fur family just like one of our own (and she thinks she’s the High Queen!). We also offer house sitting services. We would love to care for your fur family in their own comfortable space or we can in our home. . I am a retired teacher and my husband is in the military. We have a son that’s 24 that lives at home and he is a huge dog lover. Our little Yorkie, Widget, has him wrapped around her finger. She’s an older dog and just likes to be close to you but does her own thing. She’s super laid back. I am home all the time unless it’s to run errands or an appointment here and there so my schedule is wide open. We offer house sitting services too. We have a large fenced in backyard and plenty of room to run and play. We have plenty of space in our home but will also come to your home so your fur family is comfortable in their own space.
About: I’ve cared for dogs my whole life and have experience with multiple breeds, sizes, and temperaments. Whether it’s walking, feeding, or just spending quality time, I truly enjoy being around dogs. Currently working part time from home, so I can go for walks and keep an eye on your dog with flexible hours. I like to be outside so dogs will get my regular attention or a short check up. Have a large comfortable fenced in back yard with a patio fence and another fence so there are three areas for a dog to roam or be locked up and just relax. Have a big friendly golden doodle that loves to relax and make friends. I am attentive to dogs needs and emotions and can make sure that they are having a good time sniffing, exploring, barking and even a light jog or run.
About: I’ve been around animals my whole life, but I started taking a more active role in their care about 9 years ago. I began by helping with family pets and more recently started doing my own pet sitting and drop-ins. I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes and personalities and have experience handling multiple dogs at once. I really enjoy getting to know each dog and figuring out what they like and need. I try to keep things calm and consistent so they feel comfortable while you’re away. I’m still building my experience, which is part of why my rates are lower right now, but I take pet care seriously and focus on giving your pet reliable, quality care. I’m currently in college. So my schedule is finicky. At school (Starkville, MS area): I’m available most of the time. At home (Laurel/Hattiesburg, MS area): I’m available on weekends and school breaks. Schedule subject to change—please check my calendar for the most up-to-date availability. 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 also keep communication clear so you always know how things are going.

About: I’ve loved pets since I was a child and animals have generally always taken to me pretty quickly. I’m an empath and have intuition with animals just as with people. I understand animals need a paced yet sensitive approach when first meeting. I feel this is the best predictor for having a sit go well. I also enjoy the art of maintaining a peaceful home and will do all I can to leave your home in the same or better state than when I arrived. I am most experienced with cats and dogs but am open to caring for other kinds !!! ***While currently living in Laurel, MS I am available for all pet services here . I didn’t see a way to put availability for both local and away services?? I listed only pet-sitting bc i have friends and family in 30A Florida panhandle, Birmingham, Al, TN , DC area , TN and others so please reach out if you need a sitter or you have family or friends in other areas looking for a trusted and responsible sitter who is gifted in both pet care and home care…please see below for details. Whether local or in other cities/states …that will be my only responsibility …..I schedule my personal responsibilities around the requirements of your job . Im always excited about each new sit job and I am very intentional about meeting the needs and as well as the activities of my pets or those I sit with . I treat pets no differently than caring for a human being!!
