“Jecinda went above and beyond for our little pup and gave us peace of mind while we were away. We received daily updates with photos and/or videos which we truly appreciated. This was our second time booking with her and we’ve never been happier. Our little guy was also excited to see her again because he knew he was about to get the VIP treatment. I highly recommend booking her if you’re looking for top notch professional care for your fur baby.”
“Lynsi did a great job watching my dog Fitz. She kept me updated on how he was doing throughout the visit and made sure he was safe and comfortable. Definitely recommend and would book again!”
“Mark and Steph were so loving with our girl! They sent lots of updates and pictures throughout the weekend. They took great care of her and she got many cuddles! She will definitely be back!”
“Kristin was very polite and kind. I felt very comfortable with my puppy staying with her. She sent lots of videos and photos. She was quick to respond with any questions. Romeo was well taken care of. It was a pleasant experience.”
“Lexie was amazing! My plans changed multiple times at the last minute and Lexie was always quick to accommodate me. She truly made the experience easy and worry free. My fur baby loved her and I felt comfortable knowing she was not only being taken care of by Lexie, but shown all the love she would get at home. Lexie is obviously a true animal lover and will care for your fur babies just as you would. Thanks again, Lexie! I'm sure we'll be back!”
“If you are looking for the most patient, kind sitter for your fur child you need to contact Dannie. This was the first time Cooper was away from us for a long span of time. Her messages, pictures, video clips, were hilarious and comforting at the same time. Great with communication and quick responses. Cooper is very rambunctious Doxiepoo, and she handled him extremely well. We had such peace of mind and that helped make our vacation more enjoyable knowing he was in good hands.”
“Jayme and her family took amazing care of Pig. I received multiple picture and video updates throughout the day and I went from feeling guilty for leaving him to happy he got a nice little vacation. Pig came back happy and tired from all the fun. Will definitely use again.”
“I was a bit anxious at first leaving Bubba with a complete stranger, but Scott was great during our meet and greet with him and I knew they would get along fine and Scott would take good care of him. Scott was conscientious about taking notes on how much to feed and when, potty habits, quirks I thought he needed to know. He provided me pictures everyday and I was pleased to see that Bubba got plenty of exercise while I was gone. I definitely plan to use Scott again. Thanks for a great experience.”
“Nicole was phenomenal with our dog. She paid attention to her and spent so much time playing with her and taking her on walks, etc. We use dog sitters a lot but Nicole exceeded our expectations and we will be using her for all future dog sitting needs. 10/10 recommend. If you’re on the fence about who you should use, definitely book Nicole you won’t regret it! Our dog thought she was on vacation.”
“Angie was truly wonderful! She kept me up to date with so many pictures, I never had to ask, she was on top of it! She took such good care of our fur baby and we felt like we were in good hands! You won’t regret choosing Angie to care and love your fur baby as her own! Thank you Angie!”
“Jesse was amazing! He accepted my booking on very short notice and took excellent care of my dog, Xena, all weekend. He kept me updated, was reliable, and gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. Xena was happy, well cared for, and I could tell she was in great hands. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Jesse again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter. Thank you so much!”
“Sierra and Andrew were wonderful!! Sierra took such good care of our girls, and sent us many daily photos and updates. Our pups had such a blast playing in their yard, and they didn't want to leave when we picked them up! Highly recommend booking with Sierra - they are amazing dog sitters :)”
“2nd time using Elizabeth and I can stop saying how lovely of a person she is. My partner and I were out of state for the weekend and we were not getting back until later than expected. Elizabeth understood and was able to take Ginny over night again and allowed us to pick her up the next morning before work. It was such a blessing and ease for our travels to not rush home late at night with and added stressor. We love Elizabeth and Ginny loves her too. Elizabeth is kind to sent updates as well to put you at ease. 💕🫶🏼💕”
“Pamela goes above and beyond, my pups love her! She has great communication and always keeps us updated through messages and daily photos. We are so grateful for her attentiveness and care and for Pamela being so accommodating for a last minute request. We look forward to our pups next visit with her 🐾”

“Hanna was great with Lottie! She kept her on her routine and sent me lots of pictures and videos during her stay, Lottie had such a good time she almost didn’t want to get back in the car to go home. Will definitely be booking with Hanna again!”

“Theresa really helped me out in a pinch, and right around the holidays too! She is friendly and easy-going, punctual, and reliable. She showed up at the requested times each day, provided pics and a note, and all for a very reasonable rate (especially compared to some of the exorbitant rates on here!).

About: I have raised many kids and many dogs over the years and I’d love to care for your sweet dogs- much love will be provided For the summer, I am free pretty much all the time and I can sit in any of the surrounding towns around south Mississippi :) When school starts I can still board or sit your pet as long as they are OK during the workday as I am a teacher. I have many years experience with dogs starting as a small girl. I’m a nurturer by nature and will be the most attentive person for your pet.

I have experience feeding, cleaning litter boxes, playing with cats or kittens. My goal is making sure they feel safe, have fun, and try to make them feel as stress-free as possible.
“Haley did a great job looking after my 3 pups. She came 3 times per day to feed them and let them out. She also played ball with them to give them some exercise. I do appreciate her help and would book her again in the future.”
About: I have a personal passion for animals, and have taken care of everything from fish to horses since I was a child!

I work from home, and make my own schedule, so I will have plenty of time for any and all of your needs! Even if it's last minute, please don't hesitate to reach out! I live in a very quiet neighborhood that is wonderful for walks and lots of space to play! I believe in treating your pets like my own! I have a golden retriever mix if your pup ever needs company!
About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was little, I’ve always had a knack for taking care of them plus I’ve had my dogs for 12 + years Caring for animals isn’t something I have to squeeze into my schedule, it’s something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize. I build my days around making sure pets are fed, exercised, loved, and comfortable. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, cuddles, or sticking to a specific routine, I make sure every pet gets the attention and care they deserve. When caring for pets in my home, I provide a safe, clean, and comfortable environment where they receive plenty of attention, playtime, exercise, fresh water, and meals according to their normal routine. I make sure they feel loved and secure while their owners are away.
About: What sets me apart from other cat sitters is my dedication to providing personalized care and attention to your pet. I offer a calm, loving environment, ensuring your dog feels comfortable and at ease while you’re away. Whether your cat needs extra playtime, medication administration, or simply some cuddles and companionship, I’m here to make sure they’re well taken care of and happy. Your pet’s well-being is my top priority!
“Nicole was wonderful. I needed last minute assistance for my pup and she had no issues working within my short timeline. She did a meet and greet the next day. And kept me posted while I was gone. Even made a special trip to ensure my pup was taken care of. Will be using her again for sure!”
About: I have been around cats my entire life. I built an entire fun zone for my Betsy. She owned the sky in our house. I love singing fun songs while I play with the animals. I harness trained my Betsy and would walk her on a lead when I took Lola for walks.
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.
About: My passion for taking care of animals are beyond anything. I will watch your fur babies as if they were my own with love, patience, kindness, and carefulness. I would love to spend any free time I have with your fur babies! I’m available most the time unless attending to other bookings!

“Robin was so sweet and good to Lucas. She communicated daily and sent pictures of Lucas playing with her dogs. Needless to say Lucas had a wonderful time playing with the liter of puppies they currently have. She asked questions to clarify how much I feed my fur baby and the times. She also showed me how my crate collapses so it's easier to bring for his overnight stays. I will be using Robin as my permanent pet sitter, very happy with her service.”

Your pet will enjoy plenty of company and attention while staying with me! Someone is home in my household almost all day, with the exception of about four hours, so your pet will never be left alone for long periods. This means frequent bathroom breaks, regular feeding times, and lots of love, supervision, and attention throughout the day. My goal is to make sure your pet feels comfortable, safe, and cared for just like they would at home. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. My home provides a secure, welcoming environment where animals can relax, play, and enjoy their time away from home. I have a small fenced-in yard, perfect for safe outdoor time, quick potty breaks, and supervised play. For pups who love to run and explore, there’s also a dog park right in my community, giving them extra space and opportunities for fun, exercise, and socialization (based on your comfort level). Inside, pets have access to plenty of toys, cozy spots to rest, and a calm environment where they can feel at ease. I offer frequent walks and outdoor time throughout the day to make sure they stay active, stimulated, and happy. Whether your pet prefers relaxing cuddles or energetic play, they’ll have a safe, enriching environment to enjoy during their stay.
About: What sets me apart from other dog sitters is my dedication to providing personalized care and attention to your pet. I offer a calm, loving environment, ensuring your dog feels comfortable and at ease while you’re away. Whether your dog needs extra playtime, medication administration, or simply some cuddles and companionship, I’m here to make sure they’re well taken care of and happy. Your pet’s well-being is my top priority! I am currently unemployed, unfortunately, so I am openly available to help out when and where needed. I cannot have pets in my home, however. When caring for pets in your home, I prioritize maintaining their routine and environment to help them feel safe and secure. I offer a range of services based on your pet’s needs, including daily walks, playtime, and feeding on their usual schedule. I also make sure to give your pet plenty of attention, whether it’s cuddling on the couch or keeping them entertained with their favorite toys. If your dog requires special care, like medication or additional comfort, I’m happy to accommodate those needs. I also take care to respect your home by keeping everything tidy and following any specific instructions you provide.
About: On walks, I’ve been known to smile at dogs yet frown at the owners. Not really, but it’s true that seeing pets on walks is my motivation for doing them in the first place. I only have one little pupper (Bella) who is 14 years old! Although she has the energy of a toddler, the way she follows me into any room any time I’m in the house is something I’ll miss when she’s gone. We take walks daily, and I’m careful not to over feed her or harm her in any way. Even though this is my first app, I think the foundation of trust and looking for any signs the lore is showing (as well as my clear communication with pet and owner)
About: I am a full time and personally insured pet sitter with experience caring for senior, neonatal, disabled, medicated, and even show animals. There is no pet I can't care for, no matter how large or small! I am a full time pet sitter, so I can work my schedule around any time needs you may have. Whether it be time sensitive medications, mid-day drop ins, or something else, I can accommodate it. I offer pet sitting in your home. This can be daily walks, drop ins, or even overnight care. Your pet will be able to follow their normal routine in the comfort of their own home.

“Jecinda went above and beyond for our little pup and gave us peace of mind while we were away. We received daily updates with photos and/or videos which we truly appreciated. This was our second time booking with her and we’ve never been happier. Our little guy was also excited to see her again because he knew he was about to get the VIP treatment. I highly recommend booking her if you’re looking for top notch professional care for your fur baby.”

“I was a bit anxious at first leaving Bubba with a complete stranger, but Scott was great during our meet and greet with him and I knew they would get along fine and Scott would take good care of him. Scott was conscientious about taking notes on how much to feed and when, potty habits, quirks I thought he needed to know. He provided me pictures everyday and I was pleased to see that Bubba got plenty of exercise while I was gone. I definitely plan to use Scott again. Thanks for a great experience.”
“Nicole was phenomenal with our dog. She paid attention to her and spent so much time playing with her and taking her on walks, etc. We use dog sitters a lot but Nicole exceeded our expectations and we will be using her for all future dog sitting needs. 10/10 recommend. If you’re on the fence about who you should use, definitely book Nicole you won’t regret it! Our dog thought she was on vacation.”

He kept me updated, was reliable, and gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. Xena was happy, well cared for, and I could tell she was in great hands. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with Jesse again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter. Thank you so much!”
“2nd time using Elizabeth and I can stop saying how lovely of a person she is. My partner and I were out of state for the weekend and we were not getting back until later than expected. Elizabeth understood and was able to take Ginny over night again and allowed us to pick her up the next morning before work. It was such a blessing and ease for our travels to not rush home late at night with and added stressor. We love Elizabeth and Ginny loves her too. Elizabeth is kind to sent updates as well to put you at ease. 💕🫶🏼💕”

“Sarah was great at watching our two dogs over Christmas, even our large one with anxiety. She also didn't have a problem keeping them on such short notice. Definitely recommend.”
About: Animals have always been a big part of my life, and I genuinely enjoy caring for them. I’ve helped foster animals and have experience caring for pets of friends, family, and neighbors. Whether it’s feeding, walking, playtime, administering basic routines, or simply providing companionship, I treat every pet with patience, kindness, and respect. I understand that every animal has its own personality and needs, so I take the time to make them feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. You can count on me to communicate regularly, follow your instructions carefully, and care for your pet as if they were my own. My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in dependable hands. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. My dog, Benji, keeps me active with daily walks, playtime, and outdoor activities. I have a flexible schedule, allowing me to provide reliable care, regular potty breaks, exercise, feeding, and plenty of attention to every pet I care for. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. Benji and I enjoy daily walks and visits to dog parks, and we have the luxury of a large, fenced backyard where dogs can safely run and play. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I’ll follow your routines, respect your instructions, provide lots of love and attention, and send regular photo and video updates so you can have peace of mind while you’re away.
