“Norma took excellent care of my girls, Sunshyne and Chocolate!! One is newly diagnosed diabetic, and she took the time to come over ahead to learn how to give the insulin so I had no worries when I was away for a week! She and her husband Phil spoiled them and treated them like their own family! She made them special a special treat and I got a nice printed picture of them and it looks like they were living their best life! I will definitely be booking her again!!”
“Jaimari was excellent with my girls!! She sent me so many pictures and took great care of them. I felt so reassured they were taken well care of. I will definitely re book her services!”
“Callie was very good with our cat, Shadow. She sent lots of pictures and made sure that all his needs were met and also made sure to keep us updated throughout his stay. Definitely would recommend to anyone who needs a sitter!”
About: I don’t have any special training or pet sitting experiences, but I’ve always had a pet and I taught my cat a few tricks. I work part-time at a deli so I have a solid chunk of time for pet care responsibilities. I typically work from 10-2/4, but it’s flexible. I have a three bedroom house and a decent yard, the yard is not fenced in, but the neighborhood is and it’s very safe. Plenty of space indoors and outdoors for another pet.
About: My mom has worked as an assistant at a Vet Clinic for my whole life and I was always up there with her. I’ve done lots of volunteer work for them and I have wonderful experience with all kinds of animals. I have 2 pets of my own. My dog, kenai, and my cat, faline. I tend to my animals every need and make sure they are happy and healthy. I am very responsible, caring and I am willing to prove that to you and your pets. I am currently a college student, so I am available all day Friday-Sunday and weekdays will vary! Feel free to message and we could possibly work out our schedules. I also recommend to look over my prices before attempting to book! :) Unfortunately, I will not allow other pets to come to my home for safety precautions. I prefer to house sit your animals in a place where they are most comfortable. Leave me a list of all the specifics and I will make it my top priority to see to their needs.
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.
“Kattie was great with my 2 dogs. She was quick to respond, very accommodating for last minute booking and overall pleasant to work with. She took great care of my dogs and they left Kattie's house happy. Would recommend for your pet needs.”
About: I’ve had family dogs since I was 10! I mostly have experience with medium and large dogs. I once helped birth a litter of 10 puppies and nursed them until they were ready for their forever homes. I have been with dogs of various temperaments, from timid to energetic. I also know that it is extremely important to understand a dog’s body language, and I will ensure that your pet is comfortable above all else! I am currently a college student, so I will have plenty of time to play with your pups and walk them to match the schedule you already have them on! I have class from 9am-2pm Monday to Thursday, so I will be available before and after! I have a yard and a friendly spayed dog that can keep your dog company under my supervision! I have a spacious living area and a crate as well.

With lots of time for walks and playtime from sunrise to sunset. I run on weekends so active pups are more than welcome to join! Those relaxed pups will be met with cold ac and chill vibes!

“Britney took very good care of my kitty while I was gone. My cat is very skittish when it comes to new people, so she tends to hide. Britney went the extra mile to make sure she atleast heard her in the house. She also made sure she had food, water and cleaned her kitty box. I would highly recommend her to take care of your pets!”

About: I’ve taken care of cats of all ages my entire life! We had kittens growing up, in the house and through our neighborhood. As an adult, I’ve got three healthy beautiful girls (Kimchi, Olive and Maple) that are so deeply loved and I also cat sit for friends while they are out of town!

“I can’t say enough good things about Christa! She came for drop-in visits and did an amazing job with our cats. We have a shy cat that warmed right up immediately, which is always a great sign. I felt completely at ease while I was away knowing that she was caring for them.”
About: I’ve been around animals my entire life after growing up on a farm, which taught me patience and responsibility from a young age. I currently work at Pampered Paws, where I professionally care for both dogs and cats and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I also volunteer at animal shelters, giving me experience with animals of all personalities, including shy and anxious pets. I’ve been a cat owner myself for over a year, so I understand how important it is to find someone trustworthy and attentive. My goal is always to treat every pet like they’re my own and give owners peace of mind while they’re away.
About: I’ve worked in a vet clinic for 4 years where I have learned how to properly take care of animals. I also dog sit for neighbors and friends which include feeding, bathing, administering medicine, walking and spending the night with their animals. I will be able to stop by between, before or after classes. I will also be able to stop by on weekends or on my lunch break. I do work a part time job and I am a full time student but I will fit this into my schedule between classes or after work. I will build up a trust with your pet and treat them like one of my own. I will either leash walk them to go potty or let them out in a fenced in back yard.

Perfect for high energy dogs - West Point
Prices are estimates per day. Pricing may vary based on your search. A booking fee of 11% and taxes will apply.
About: I have had and loved dogs for more than 20 years. I specialize in small to medium size. I only care for one to three dogs. Keeping it small allows for more attention and a great experience. Se habla espanol. I'm a "stay-at-home." My schedule is flexible and caring for pets really fulfills my day. I can board on weekends and possibly holidays. My home is cozy and your dog stays on a soft bed right in the family room. Cages are not used unless you request and provide. Outside, I have a large fenced yard with plenty of room to play fetch or chase the occasional butterfly. I enjoy gardening and dogs love to be outside.
About: Unfortunately, my services are temporarily on pause while I care for a family member. I will update when I'm able to accept clients again! 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.

I make sure to ask detailed questions about each pet’s schedule, behavior, preferences, and any special care needs so I can provide the best care possible. Safety and trust are very important to me, and I always treat both pets and homes with respect. In my own home, I follow the same approach by creating a safe, clean, and calm environment for every pet in my care. My goal is always to make pets feel comfortable, loved, and stress-free while their owners are away.

Although I began with my family pets, I have consistently taken care of others animals for 2 years. In that time I have worked with many dog sizes and their resulting personalities. Additionally I have experience handling multiple animals at once. I enjoy getting to know each animal and finding what they like and need. I keep things calm and consistent so they feel comfortable while you’re away. I am in college, so my schedule is subject to change—please check my calendar for the most up-to-date availability. 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.
