Personalized care for your dog or cat - Prairie

“Caitlin was great! We needed help last minute and she worked so well with my timeline! She’s very fast at responding and Bud had a blast with her human and fur family! We’ll be back again!”

“My puppy enjoyed the boarding. Manuela sent pictures and videos of the puppy during the boarding. She was also very flexible with requests. I strongly recommend her.”

“We are so thankful for the sweet care that Norma gave. We could tell our dog was happy and rested when we picked him up. Norma's house was very near where the graduation was held, so it was easy to drop him off and pick him up. We would definitely use Norma again- she is so sweet! We are very grateful to her for being so kind and sweet to our little one. We are looking forward to using Norma again!”

About: I have a half acre fenced in yard, a 20x10 run pen, have fostered senior dogs and puppies for the shelter near us, I have worked with trainers before on how to get tips for our own dogs so I can be better equipped to care of others as well. I can also care for almost any animal at my house while you need a sitter. Small to tall! (Sorry I don’t have the set up for horses) Fish to big and small dogs, all the way to reptiles! I have experience with all of them. Daily, your animal will be watched 24/7. I strive to make sure every animal in my care is cared for like my own. So, your animal will never be left for more than a hour or two (the occasional doctors appointment). They will also be taken care of just like my own in they will get PLENTY of exercise! My dogs and dogs I watch are crated when we are not home. (Of course without collars on!) I spend at the very least 2 hours per day exercising with my dogs in the backyard. High energy dogs need outlets! I have experience from Yorkies to Shepherds to Belgians.

“Love her! Sends updates and pictures. 10/10 would recommend and will book again. Her and her husband and so friendly and will take exceptional care of your pet.”

“We used Elizabeth again because she did such a great job the first time. She sent pictures of a walk and we were so happy to see our dog having fun. Elizabeth is very dependable and good. We are so glad we connected with her through Rover and will definitely use her again. Our dog really likes her!”

“Callie was nothing short of amazing! She not only took incredible care of my Golden Retriever, but she stayed in constant contact with me with updates and pictures. Initially I was going to drop him off at her house, but at the last minute my plans changed, and I was in a pinch. Callie was able to pick him up from the groomer and take him to her house. Her service is 5 Star. This was my first time leaving him with a sitter and Callie made the whole process completely worry free. I have already booked with her again for later this month. If you are looking for a pet sitter, look no further - book with Callie!”

About: Ever since I can remember I have felt very deeply about animals and their wellbeing; my dream since I was a kid was to become a Vet, and so I did! Not only do I love to be around animals, but I also have the knowledge and patience to take care of their needs, healthcare, and wellbeing. I have always taken care of our family pets. The feeding, the grooming, and of course, the walks in the park and exercise :) For the past 6 years I have taken care of all my friends and relatives pets, when they go to travel, and even tend them when they get sick and need special treatment at home. Pet care fits well into my routine. I’m available for evening pet sitting and care in clients’ homes, and I also care for pets staying with me, where they aren’t left alone for long periods. On weekends, I’m available all day. I make sure pets receive consistent attention, care, and companionship so they feel comfortable and well cared for. I can care for pets in my clients’ homes, always following their routine to keep them comfortable and stress-free. I’m careful about safety, making sure doors and gates are secure and maintaining a clean, calm environment. In my home, I have a fenced yard and two friendly kittens who are used to being around other animals. Pets are always supervised and introduced safely in a relaxed, loving space.

About: I work at Shaggy Hound where we treat your dogs just like our own. I take care of dogs from 3 months to 17 years old. I can administer medications and keep them on a regular schedule. I can also start training your dog basic commands while they are in my care. I believe what sets me apart from other people is my knowledge and experience. I used to work at a vet clinic for four years and now I work as a Kennel Tech. I have gained so much confidence in my ability to handle and work with animals. Pet care fits into my routine because it’s what I do for work, i work with dogs and then I come home and get to spoil my own dog and cats. I have a passion for caring for animals because they can’t do it for themselves. Your pets depend on you and that is my motivation to be better for them everyday. I care for other people’s animals with the same genuine love as I do my own. Pets are apart of the family and deserve to see love and respect always.

About: I am flexible with any care your pet may need. I have a direct line to a vet clinic where I also work at. I also accept pets with prescribed medications or special needs. Exotics are also welcome, and I provide services for large animal such as horses, livestock, and/or farm animals! I try to be as flexible as possible to work around my schedule. I go to school so most visits would be extended afternoon visits, but weekends would be completely open. I require detailed and clear instructions of the exact care you want your pet to have. Such as do they have specific feed or potty times etc. all written on a hard copy. I take your special care needs seriously and like to make sure everything is done correctly; therefore, please be available to answer a text or phone call at any time.

About: I have had and taken care of dogs and cats ever since I was a very young girl, and I can’t wait to help watch your babies!!

“Caitlin is very communicative and helpful. I will be utilizing her services in the future.”

About: My dog Lucy and I love to play. We go for 30-minute walks (at least) every day, run around and play fetch in the backyard, and play tug of war with her toys throughout the day. We would love for your pet to join us! When I was little, I was the hired pet sitter in the neighborhood, plus I also had my own pets growing up. As an adult, I've had my own pets and have been hired to pet-sit for several friends' dogs and cats, both short- and long-term gigs, over the years. I have experience administering oral medication to both dogs and cats and some dog grooming experience (although grooming is not my passion, ha). Weekends are when I consistently have the most time to focus on your pet, but I sometimes have some availability on weekdays. Just ask and I'll see what I can do! We have a fenced-in backyard (tall wooden fence) that is the size of an additional lot. The yard has a few shade trees and is mostly open grass. We have several toys to play with, both in the backyard and inside, including a water sprinkler. Your dog will not be left unattended in my care unless I need to run an errand briefly and they are secured according to your instructions (crated, etc.) We have a large dog crate your dog can use if you'd like so you don't have to bring yours back and forth. There are several safe places to go for walks nearby with lots of grassy areas.

“Elizabeth goes the extra mile with our dog and we really appreciate it. For example, it was a rainy day and after their walk she took the time to wipe off his paws and stomach with the dog wipes we had in the backpack. It was really nice to pick up our clean puppy! Way to go, Elizabeth! Thank you for being awesome”

“Awesome job! Thanks for caring for him the way you did ! I highly recommend 10/10”

About: I have rescued dogs for over 20 years. I now rescue seniors. I have had dogs all my life and love all pups as my own. I work from home. I can work from anywhere. I will stay with your pet almost 24/7 if needed. Love to sit outside with them or walk with them I would have to stay at your home as I have four rescues now and my home owners will not allow. I will be happy to stay at your home and take care of your babies as if they were my own

About: I understand how important it is for your pet(s) to be walked a certain way, have their food prepared exactly how they like it (because if not, they simply won’t touch it), and be groomed to their personal comfort. That’s why you can enjoy confidence and peace of mind knowing your pet is being cared for by a genuine animal lover who will do everything possible to make them feel safe, happy, and relaxed. I live in the county, about 18 minutes outside of Starkville, and I’m happy to provide dependable, loving care for pets in the surrounding area. I offer flexible scheduling with reliable, on-time visits, because pets thrive on routine and familiarity. Whether your pet needs a morning potty break, midday check-in, evening walk, or consistent daily care while you’re away, I make their schedule a priority. You’ll never have to worry about rushed visits or missed routines — your pet’s comfort always comes first. Safety, trust, and consistency are at the core of my care. I follow all instructions closely, maintain secure entries and exits, and keep a watchful eye on your pet’s behavior and wellbeing during every visit. You can trust that your home and your pet are always handled responsibly and with full attention to detail.
