“Duke had a wonderful time with Laura at the farm and enjoyed playing with the other doggies, animals and children. Laura kept in touch and is a wonderful sitter. Great environment for our dog!”
“Myra was ABSOLUTELY wonderful with Rainbow! Not only did she take pictures to keep us updated during Rainbow’s stay, but she also sent a video as well. Thanks Myra for taking such good care of Rainbow! I highly recommend Myra!”
“We couldn’t be more grateful for the amazing care Megan gave to Milo this weekend! From the moment we dropped him off, we felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. Milo can be a little shy at first, but he warmed up quickly, and it’s clear he was loved and well taken care of the entire time. We got regular updates and adorable photos, which made us smile and gave us total peace of mind. When my daughter picked him up he was happy, relaxed, and clearly had a great time. It’s such a relief to know we have someone we can trust with our sweet boy. Thank you again for everything—you’ve definitely earned Milo’s (and our) trust, and we’ll absolutely be booking with you again in the future!”
“Todd & Gail were amazing! They came through for me me at extremely short notice to board and wipe for artichokes, small, my precious Seven during a crucial moment when I needed a sitter right away. Immediately, after being welcomed into their home to sit for a minute I knew right away. It was a good environment, and that they were good people. They were great to my dog Seven and I appreciate them so much. I will definitely be using them Todd & Gail again if need be!”
“This was Muffin’s first time staying away from us and he had a great time. He made new friends with their dogs and had fun. Will definitely use their service again.”
About: I’ve had pets since the day I was born including fish, a bird, a hamster, dogs, and cats. I grew especially fond of the dogs and cats and with that, I grew a passion of taking very good care of all of them, making sure they always felt so loved. I cared for them more and more everyday, until their time on Earth ended. Whenever I was given the opportunity to take care of a family member or friend’s fur baby, I always jumped right in and took such passion in it! When I came of age, me and my boyfriend (which is now my husband) got a dog of our own and named him Goose and he is our entire world! ❤️ I’m currently working full-time (8-5 Mon-Fri) as an auditor but I work from home almost everyday (generally 3-4 days per week). I will easily be able to care for your fur baby whether or not i’m working, just as I do my own fur baby! We have a large fenced in yard and, because of living in the last house on a dead end street, we have a large and secure side yard as well as a good-sized front yard! It is all flat land, no hills or areas that can’t be seen. We also have a large dog kennel if requested!
“Another great stay with Mrs.Sharon! My fur baby absolutely loves her, and she loves him back! She takes great care of him and treats him like family. She kept me informed throughout his stay. She’s the best!”
“Cayley was so amazing!! She took amazing care of my dog and sent pictures and updates!! I will definitely be consistently using her again to watch my dog!! Her communication was awesome and was very helpful and quick to respond!!”
“We were visiting Memphis and had to pick a sitter without meeting in advance. Stephanie was excellent with us, with our dog and he was exited to be with them. Thank you.”
“Mrs. Allison was the sweetest ! This was my dog’s first time away from me and she made me feel so comfortable. She sent countless pics daily, and he was in absolute heaven! I joked the whole week about how he was not going to want to come home lol. 10/10 HIGHLY recommend!”
“Kimber and Koya had a great time staying Sylvia. Communication was great. We received pictures and videos through our trip. We will book again with Sylvia on our next trip I highly recommend Sylvia as a sitter.”
“Bridgett was a great communicator through the whole process, from meet and greet, to drop off, throughout the stay, and for pickup. My dog loved being there and I felt very comfortable the whole time. Will definitely book again.”
“Melinda has a heart for dogs, she treated my lil chihuahua very well and they enjoyed time over Thanksgvg. I had a great holidays, and had no worries for the holiday, just relaxing with family.”
“Jennifer was very sweet and knowledgeable about dog care. She kept me informed with email and pics during her stay Ginger enjoyed her time there and I will definitely use her again.”
“This was the 1st time we left our pup with somebody, and I'm glad we chose Donald and his wife. He was quick to answer any questions we had on how our pup was doing, and provided more than enough pictures. They were genuinely caring and I look forward to the next time my puppy needs a sitter.”
“Our dog Finn came back happy and healthy and even came home with a goodie bag! Chryschel sent updates and was very responsive and took great care of our dog! We would definitely use her again.”
“I was a little skeptical at first due to this being our first time leaving Boba with someone. I felt better after Nadia sent a pic of her laying in the floor playing. Definitely would recommend.”

About: I've been caring for cats for as long as I can remember. In my teen years, my family rescued and cared for a total of ten cats at once. Growing up in a home with up to ten cats at once taught me how to handle every type of feline personality - from cuddly lap cats to those who prefer their personal space. I have experience with Cats who are fearful, apprehensive, or slow to warm up. I can maintain the litter box, play, administer oral meds, give injections, and support anxious or reactive cats. If your cat has quirks, medical needs, or a big personality, I'm the sitter who won't be intimidated.
“Adel did a great job taking care of our two cats. They were relaxed around him and he kept them on their feeding and playing schedule. He was also excellent with sending regular updates. Would definitely recommend him to others!”
“Jasmin is phenomenal! I adopted my two cats last November and I had a family vacation this June. I was so anxious about being away from them for 10 days. Jasmin is a great communicator, responding promptly to messages, and was so reassuring and very loving to my babies while I was away sending 1-2 photos daily. When I met her the day I dropped them off I knew I had chosen the perfect sitter!!💜”
About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats my entire life and truly love animals of all ages and personalities. I’m especially patient, attentive, and affectionate, and I understand how important it is for pet parents to feel confident their pets are safe, happy, and loved while they’re away. I’m comfortable caring for senior pets, giving medications if needed, and helping shy or anxious animals feel calm and comfortable.

Whether your pet loves playtime, cuddles, or a calm routine, I’ll make sure they feel cared for and loved while you’re away. I work at an Animal hospital in Oxford currently, so I have lots of free time to take care of furry friends! I also spend most of my time at home! Although I do stay in a tiny home, I have access to the dog park right up the road! I am more than willing to carry your pup to the dog park multiple times a day if needed, it’s almost a 5 min drive! If sitting at your place, I’m still happy to take them to the dog park! I can also send updates on how you’re pets doing throughout the day with pictures!

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.

I’ll always treat your pets like they’re my own and make sure they get lots of love, attention, and proper care.
“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: I'm a lifelong dog owner and lover of many different breeds. I currently have a miniature pinscher and a dachshund who are used to company and making new friends. I've also owned beagles, terriers, and a Belgian malinois. I love to play with dogs and take them on walks. I'm responsible, reliable, punctual, and fun! I'm home every afternoon and am free for walks some mornings and I will be available for walks in the early evening during the warmer months. I'm comfortable giving them oral medications or a special diet. In a nutshell, I love dogs and enjoy them more than most people. I'd be happy to take yours on a walk or babysit. I'm also comfortable bathing and brushing them (I haven't mastered haircuts yet, though). I love all size dogs, but as I am a smaller person, it's easier for me to handle breeds under 40 pounds. I work from home part time and am home everyday so boarding and dog sitting fits in easily with my daily routine. I'm usually free on the weekends as well I have a fenced in yard and a doggy door in my home. I'm home everyday and have a pup of my own to keep your dog company.
About: I’ve taken care of both doggos and cats since I was 13. My family used to rescue dogs and rehome them, so I have experience with a wide range of breeds from Great Danes to Yorkies to all kinds of kitties as well as a range of ages from newborns to seniors. I can bottle feed and administer medicine if needed. I just love being around animals, so I can assure you that your babies will receive the best treatment imaginable with me. All the love you would normally give them will be felt with my care :) I work from home full time and have the flexibility to step away from my computer whenever I need to. This means I am able to provide constant supervision and care to your fur babies. I care for at most one doggo or cat at a time so I can ensure your fur baby is safe and being cared for properly. I have lots of fenced land to play and walk them while they are here. For non-boarding services, you can trust that I will care for your babies as if they were receiving the care directly from you. I am willing to travel to your home to check on your babies, play with them, and take care of their needs.

I’ll follow your care instructions closely, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any special needs.

About: Hi, I’m Kayla! 🐾 Animals have been a huge part of my life for as long as I can remember. I got my first dog, Brownie, when I was 6 years old, and he was truly my best friend. After caring for him from puppyhood through his senior years, I learned just how much our pets become part of our families. Although we sadly lost him a few years ago, my love for animals has only continued to grow. I have experience caring for dogs and cats of all ages, from young puppies to seniors, and I’m comfortable with pets who need a little extra care and patience. I have helped train puppies, worked with multiple litters of puppies, cared for senior dogs, and have experience with dogs with diabetes and arthritis. I have also received training through the SPCA working with both cats and dogs. Pet care has been something my family has been involved in for years. My mom and sister were pet sitters, and I spent a lot of time helping them care for their clients' pets. I also have 2+ years of experience working with horses, so I’m comfortable around animals of all sizes! 🏡 Your pets get my full attention Pet sitting is currently my primary work, which means I have a very flexible schedule and can dedicate a lot of time to the animals in my care.

Every pet is different, and I’m happy to follow their normal routine as closely as possible.

My goal is to give you peace of mind knowing that your pets are safe, comfortable, and receiving the same love and attention I would want someone to give my own. I’m happy to follow detailed instructions, send regular updates and photos, and make sure you come home to happy, well-loved pets. ❤️ Your pets aren't just a booking to me—they're family, and I’ll treat them that way. This is currently my only job, so I will have plenty of time to take extreme care of your best furry friend who you love so much!

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’ve had animals all my life and have been caring for dogs and horses for the past 6 years. Friends and family have trusted me to feed, walk, play with, and care for their pets while they’re away. I’m dependable, patient, and treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. I’m currently working toward a career in veterinary medicine, so caring for animals isn’t just something I enjoy it’s my passion. My goal is to make sure every pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I’m currently on summer break from college and working a part-time job, so pet sitting is a great way for me to spend more time doing something I truly enjoy caring for animals. My work schedule is Thursday through Saturday, and I’m available after I get off work on those days. I’m also available on my days off and will do my best to accommodate your pet care needs. I believe in keeping pet parents updated and making sure every pet receives the love, attention, and care they deserve. Your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I have a fully fenced yard where dogs can safely play and explore, as well as three friendly small dogs who are well-socialized and can provide companionship if your pet enjoys being around other dogs. For drop-in visits, I understand that inviting someone into your home requires trust. I’ll always respect your home, carefully follow your pet’s routine, and make sure they feel comfortable, loved, and well cared for while you’re away. Whether I’m caring for your pet in my home or yours, I’ll treat them like they’re part of my own family and provide the attention, patience, and care they deserve.
About: I treat every pet like they’re my own—whether that means keeping up with a playful puppy’s energy or giving extra patience and comfort to a senior pet who needs a slower pace. I have experience with pets of all ages, including young animals who are still learning routines like potty training, crate training, and basic commands. I stay consistent with whatever training methods you’re using so your pet doesn’t get confused while you’re away. For senior pets, I understand the importance of gentle care, medication routines, and watching closely for any changes in behavior or comfort. I’m attentive, calm, and always focused on keeping pets safe, happy, and stress-free in their own environment. I’m also big on communication—I’ll keep you updated with messages and photos so you can relax knowing your pet is in good hands. Whether your pet needs playtime, structure, or just some extra love, I’m here to provide reliable, personalized care every time. I would love to spend my free time with any and all the pets. My off days at work would be perfect for this job! Any pet brought to my home will be treated as well as they deserve to be treated, and same when and if I was to come to anyone’s home! Respect is my biggest manor!
About: I'm highly skilled at reading animal body language. I have experience with anxious, temperamental, excitable, shy, and senior pets. I've cared for cats since a young age and have more recent hands-on experience with dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I'm comfortable supporting both energetic younger pets and older pets who require a softer approach. I am able to handle animals gently, give oral/injection medications, routine care, play, and feeding. I am currently work part-time Monday through Wednesday from 10:00am-6:00pm. On Thursdays and Fridays, I'm fully available during the day and usually make plans around 6:00pm, but I'm always happy to stop by before or after. I'm completely available on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays for visits, drop-ins, or extended care. I always make sure I'm aware of any pet allergies, medical needs, and medications that must be given. If a medication has to be administered at a specific time, I will adjust my schedule to ensure your pet's safety and consistency. I take care to keep toxic plants, foods, and loose wires out of reach, and I maintain clean litter boxes and bowls throughout my visits. If certain pets cannot share a space, I will follow your instructions closely to keep everyone safe and comfortable. In case of emergencies, I have a reliable vehicle that pets can safely ride in if transportation is needed.
About: I am a pet person! I’ve had dogs since I was a child and have cared for my own dogs and cats throughout my adult life. Animals have always been part of my family, and I truly love caring for fur babies of all ages and personalities. I treat every pet like my own, with patience, affection, attention, cuddles, and lots of love. I understand how important it is for pet parents to feel confident their pets are safe, happy, and well cared for, and I take that responsibility seriously. I’m known in my community for taking care of friends’ pets when they’re away. Pet care fits very naturally into my daily routine because I work from home and have a flexible schedule, which allows me to give pets lots of attention, supervision, walks, and companionship throughout the day. I live in a safe, walkable neighborhood and love taking dogs on walks, playing with them, and making sure they feel comfortable and loved. My home is very pet-friendly, I have a large, fenced in backyard, and I genuinely enjoy having animals as part of my daily life. I provide a safe, loving, and comfortable environment where pets are treated like family. I have a secure fenced-in backyard with plenty of green space for dogs to safely play, explore, and get exercise. Pets will receive lots of attention, supervision, affection, walks, playtime, and care throughout the day. I’m happy to follow each pet owner’s routines, feeding schedules, medication instructions, and any special preferences to help pets feel comfortable and secure. If needed, I can also crate pets according to the owner’s instructions and comfort level.

About: Back in 2014, I attended Tennessee College of Applied Technology, graduated early with my diploma in Assistance Animal Laboratory Technicians, also with a certification in Purina Mills Animal Care Course. I have done an internship with North Shelby Animal Shelter as well as Bartlett Animal Shelte, where I took stray dogs/ abandoned out for walks and to play. Most of the dogs I encountered with at the shelter were sweet and loving dogs that just need a friend and time to spend with a person. I treated those dogs as my own. I have also intern at University of Tennessee Health and Science Center taking care of rodents, pigs, and other animals. I am someone who is mature, candid and who has integrity. Everyday I work to improve myself and my skills which is part of maturing and becoming better at what I do, this is why I want clients to choose me. I will treat your pets as my own pets. I will love and care for them, as if they where my own.
About: Growing up in Arkansas, it gave me that country life! I’ve had ducks, a goat, a rabbit, horses, cats, ponies, dogs, and chickens as my responsibilities to take care of. It was hard work, although I didn’t see it that way because I enjoy spending time with animals. This passion for animals has encouraged me to join 4-H( Marion/West Memphis Arkansas area), actively volunteer at animal shelters, join the Humane Society of Tennessee, and currently am working on my Vet Tech certifications. I’m here to show your pets it’s okay, their owner is leaving for the moment because we will have fun and I can give them the same attention and care that their awesome owners give them. I also have 3 years of experience dealing with domestic and farm animals! I have a very fexible schedule and I’m home almost all the time. I am committed to giving your pet an excellence experience with tons of attention. So if you need a pet sitter, I’m your girl! I’m also taking grooming and dog training courses, so I can get my certification. Currently, I don’t feel comfortable cutting or trimming pets yet because I’m still in training, although I do offer through Rover baths and brushing of teeth. 901 279 6895 I currently work at Shelby Center Hospital for Animals, although I am very flexible and accommodating! You tell me what you need, and I will definitely make sure I’m there for your pet! I care for your pet in my home by taking them out 2-3 times daily or as needed per the owner. I can provide bowls, blankets, pee pads, and a kennel for your pets if needed. I have a lot of toys to keep your pet engaged and I don’t have a pet so i have plenty of love to spread!

About: I have had pets since I was a child . From fish, turtles, dogs , cats and a guinea pig . I love animals so much. I am currently working part time and I’m usually gone 4-5 hours a day . Other than that I am home pretty much all day. I have a small fenced in yard that would be great for your pet to get a breath of fresh air . And enjoy some play time
About: I've had pets all of my life. I love all animals especially dogs. I currently have a toy poodle named jewels . Jewels is actually my sister's dog but she was born on my birthday and we've been inseparable since the first day I laid eyes on her. The love of a pet is unconditional and that's one of the characteristics i love most about dogs. They can sense danger and they can also sense when they are in good hands. Im a 35 year old stay at home mom (to a 2 year old daughter) that loves animals and wants your fur baby to be shown as much love as I would show my own. Hopefully I can help someone whose feeling the guilt of working long hours and not being able to walk or spend as much time as they would like with their pet. Ive been there before so I can definently relate. Sometimes things come up and it has happened to all of us. Hopefully I can help by being that piece of mind for you to know that your pet is not lonely and is in excellent care. My daughter goes to daycare during the week so im pretty flexible 7 days a week. Im ok with schedules but I also understand that things happen. Some situations are unplanned and last minute and that's ok with me as well. Communication is everything. I live in a community that loves dogs and im sure your fur baby will love visiting here. I am a homeowner and I have a big gated backyard as well as a park with a walking trail that I visit frequently on a weekly basis.

“Duke had a wonderful time with Laura at the farm and enjoyed playing with the other doggies, animals and children. Laura kept in touch and is a wonderful sitter. Great environment for our dog!”
“We couldn’t be more grateful for the amazing care Megan gave to Milo this weekend! From the moment we dropped him off, we felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. Milo can be a little shy at first, but he warmed up quickly, and it’s clear he was loved and well taken care of the entire time. We got regular updates and adorable photos, which made us smile and gave us total peace of mind. When my daughter picked him up he was happy, relaxed, and clearly had a great time. It’s such a relief to know we have someone we can trust with our sweet boy. Thank you again for everything—you’ve definitely earned Milo’s (and our) trust, and we’ll absolutely be booking with you again in the future!”
