“Emily and Derek took great care of my baby. She had never stayed away from home and was timid and frightened and they were very understanding and accommodating for her. Thanks you two”
“Exceptional!! Wrenne was amazing, I can’t even began to describe how pleased I am.. So professional, my baby is spoiled rotten so I was nervous about him being so needy but she reassured me he would be well taken care of, and he was. She updated me throughout his entire stay! She’s such a beautiful soul”
“Autumn, thank you for taking care of my big baby. Thank you for sending pictures and videos of Diesel, while I was out of town. Those pictures and videos melted my heart. I appreciate your kindness and your professionalism. We will surely be back! Alicia”
“Very happy , my puppies were happy and calm when I dropped them off and picked them up . They were very well taken care of and loved . While I was gone I was given updates as to how they were and Logan didn't mind me asking how they were all through the week. I never felt any kind of negativity from Logan and he even finished teaching them to use a pad . Great service and I'm very happy . Don't think twice about leaving your loved ones with Logan . Will use again in the future.”
“Brianna was outstanding! She was so gentle and loving with our sweet boy and made his first boarding experience an absolute dream! She kept me informed of how he was adjusting and sent me the best videos and pictures of him interacting! We will definitely be using her in the near future!”
“Second time we have used Shawna! Always quick to respond and Moretisha has a great time. Moretisha is very needy and it is always great knowing that she will be well taken care of while we are traveling. Great Family to take care of your pets!”
About: I started caring for animals at a young age when I launched a small neighborhood dog-walking business. From early on, I knew I wanted to spend my time around animals, and that passion has only grown stronger. Today, I’m the dog parent of two pups, Arlo (7) and Kirby (3), who truly are my pride and joy. Being a pet owner myself has helped me understand how important it is to find someone you trust to care for your fur baby. I’m patient, attentive, and compassionate with both people and animals, and I’ll treat your fur baby with the same care and love I give my own. I’m always happy to answer any questions you may have before booking! My availability is open during the week and typically weekends, providing the opportunity to meet your pets daily or weekly needs. I can be available during the morning and / or afternoon! I will carefully follow any instructions you provide. Keeping your pet safe and your home secure is very important to me and my standards. I always enjoy when my pet sitters provide updates during a day care or boarding session, so I plan to do the same!
About: I’m a lifelong dog lover and proud owner of a 2½-year-old Cavapoo. Throughout college, I fostered small-breed dogs from very young ages and have regularly pet sat for friends and family. I’m experienced with dogs of all ages, from puppies to seniors, and will treat your pet with the same love, attention, and care I give my own. I do work a normal 9 to 5 job. I come home for lunch for an hour and have weekends open as well. I have a doggie door with a fenced in backyard for playtime and can always close it while I’m gone. My office is nearby so I am happy to go check on them periodically! When pets stay in my home, they become part of the family. I provide a safe, clean, and loving environment where they receive plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, and cuddles. I do my best to maintain their normal routine, including feeding schedules, walks, and any special care instructions, so they feel comfortable and at ease while you’re away. With approval, a night time pup cup is a standard in our home!
About: I‘ve had pets as long as I can remember. I have a cat and a dog who love to play!

I know each pet has a unique personality, and love learning and adapting to each one’s! I look forward to meeting your precious pet and taking care of it as if it were my own.

“Haley is wonderful and our 2 small dogs had the best time with her! They seemed happy and playful when we picked them up. Haley sent photos and even a video during their time with her, which really helped make it easier to get through being away from them. I highly recommend her, and next time we are in the area we will definitely check her availability if I’m needing a great dog sitter. Thank you Haley!”

“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!!”
About: My mother used to bred dogs & have multiple horses and goats. I was always involved in the animal care & never skipped a chance to get some snuggles! I currently have a pittie whom has been with me for the past 8 years. I work remotely, so I will have plenty of time to take care of your fur babies! My work schedule is super flexible, so I’m available at call! I have a large yard that my friendly pittie loves to get her zoomies out in! I also have a kennel if needed/preferred for your baby!
About: I’ve been around dogs since I was little. My aunt breeds dogs and I used to volunteer at a horse rescue center with dogs all the time. I love animals I’ve been around dogs ever since I was little. As of now I work a part time job and enjoy doing side hustles and little jobs here and there. I’ve been pet sitting for almost 6 years now on my own and love it. I can provide play time and love, I can also make sure they get fed and if I need to clean up poop, pee, or throw up I will. I can take them on walks and give them medications if they need.
About: To me, our pets are like family. They deserve to have the best care available since they are dependent on us to provide for them. I enjoy spending time with animals and will follow their routines so they feel comfortable and safe. I am a detail-oriented person — I will make sure your pets are cared for according to your directions, with a lot of cuddles sprinkled in (if they are snugglers). I am a freelance writer, semi-retired, so I have a lot of time on my hands to devote to animals in my care. I enjoy playing fetch or tug-of-war or providing whatever other stimulation your pet needs. For those who prefer to be alone or sleep all day, I'll respect their space and keep watch from a distance. I try to follow the routines of the pet parents, so the pets have some consistency while their family is away. That's also why I prefer to stay in the home, so they are in a place they already know and feel comfortable with. I feed at the designated times and am vigilant about potty breaks or cleaning litter boxes, taking walks or whatever else the pet does in the course of a typical day. I don't give table food or snacks to pets, and I will handle any type of emergency per your instructions. I love to take pictures and videos of your pets throughout the day and will send them to you, so you know your babies are doing great. I don't mind running errands or collecting the mail and other small tasks that may be needed while you are away.

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.
