“Highly recommend Chris & Tommie! It was our first time leaving Arwen and we knew instantly she was in good hands. Great communication with daily updates while we were away. We will definitely re-book in the future!”
“Amazing took such good care of our baby, Maeve!! Sent photos everyday and kept us updated! You can tell Maeve had a blast!!! Also walked her multiple times a day! We love you guys!!!! And couldnt ask for a better experience for our girl! Thank you!”
“Absolute Amazing experience for my first time using this app. I was able to go on vacation without worrying about our sweet fur baby. Thanks for sharing photos & loving on our fur baby. Lori took great care of her!! Highly recommended! Thanks so much”
“Jennifer and her family were terrific. This was my 5 month old Sheepadoodle’s first time to board. Jennifer sent me pictures and updates throughout my stay. They worked with my puppy to get her comfortable around other dogs. I have not socialized her with other dogs until this point due to age. Thus, my puppy has the only child syndrome when it comes to other dogs. When I picked her up, she was happy and content and seems to be more comfortable when we meet other dogs on our walks. Kudos to Jennifer and Family. I highly recommend her and will use her again.”
“Rodeliza took good care of my dog. Sent plenty of pictures and even a video or two. He slept for two days once he got home so I know he had plenty of play time. Will book again.”
“Jessie is the best when it comes to looking after my dogs. She is very responsive and active when it comes to updates on furry friends. Overall 10/10 pet sitter and would highly recommend!”
“Pleased to find a repeat sitter for my Ellie girl! I will use every time they are available. Highly recommended for your fav 4 legged friends! She's happy to go & play w their Oreo.”
“Mary is the absolute best. She was very loving and nurturing to Pebbles. She sent pictures daily to show how Pebbles was adjusting. She was also very patient and understanding. I was late with my drop-off and pick up and she understood. Thank you Mary. We will definitely be back.”
“Ruby is the best pet sitter I’ve had. Ella had such a good time she wasn’t all that excited to be leaving! She loved Ruby and made friends with her little dog. I will definitely take her back to Ruby’s when my next trip comes up.”
“Apollo was well taken care of by Jaclyn! We had frequent communication and updates, and when we reached out, she responded very quickly! It was the longest we had been away from him. I will use Jaclyn again in the future!”
“Rebecca was great! She is extremely responsive, took great care of Nuit and sent us adorable pictures of her during her stay. When we picked up Nuit we could tell she had a good time and was in good hands. I would recommend Rebecca to others too.”
“I HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend Melissa!! She did an amazing job taking care of our puppy! She sent so many videos and pictures in kept us updated with how he was doing. She was so quick to respond and so attentive to our pup. By far, the best pet sitter we’ve ever had. One of her dog’s celebrated their birthday while fudge was staying at her house. She got them a cake and bacon scented bubbles. I know my dog was in heaven!”
“We were really lucky to find Letty. We've been using her while I'm on business travel and it has been just right and stress-free. "Finn" likes to go to her home, meets other 'friends' there and stays on his routine. Letty is a dog lover, is serious about the dogs in her care and doesn't hesitate to reach out and ask questions "just in case". Letty is a great "go-to" for us!”
“Aurelie gave our two dogs a happy environment for a week while we traveled, and she gave us peace-of-mind with thoughtful updates, pictures and videos. The pups were relaxed and cheerful when we picked them up, so we know they enjoyed their stay. We appreciate her so much!”
“Zondra took great care of Tucker. I really appreciated her being flexible with my schedule. Tucker definitely enjoyed his time with her and Albert on the farm. I would not hesitate to book with Zondra again.”
“I can’t say enough WONDERFUL things about Katie! From the daily pictures and updates, to how she was always available to ensure we were kept in the loop of activities/outings. Will definitely keep this connection going!!!”
“First I would like to say how kind Merry and Wade are, it was very nice meeting them. They took very good care of my fur baby; he came back to me a happy pup! Merry kept me updated throughout the entire stay so I did not have to worry about Bear at all. Of note, I really appreciate that they keep the large dogs separate from the small dogs and slowly introduce the fur babies as appropriate. I highly recommend Merry and Wade for your boarding needs!”

About: Had to make new account *** Hi, my name is Carson! I have been dog sitting for 10 years now. In high school I worked at Sidle Hill Farms (Dog boarding) in Southhaven, MS. I then gained clients and have been pet sitting from my home and others ever since. I have always dreamed of opening my own dog boarding and then remember I won't even take my own dog to be boarded! That is why I do what I do now, to nurture to love and to calm your pets nerves. I understand that it can be sometimes even more nerve racking for the owner then the pet... I am that owner! My husband Alex and I live in Oakland, Tn with a gorgeous fenced in yard as pictured. I work from home and usually never leave the house unless I go to Walmart up the street. We do not have any children and do not plan on it anytime soon! We are totally content with fur babies for now! A typical day at our home for your pet would include waking up in our bed, breakfast, mornings outside pending on weather (I have an outdoor desk), playing with millions of toys we can't seem to stop buying and of course when Alex comes home a walk around the neighborhood. We can't wait to meet you and your sweet fur baby! Dogs and cats are my whole life I care for them just as children. I love exercise and getting outside so pet care has come as a joy to me not just a chore. Dog walking, bathing, playing, co sleeping, cooking for pets if needed, taking them to groomers ect.. I am available to your pets needs as well as yours!
“Jennifer and her family were amazing with our two pups, who can be a bit hard to handle at times. We are endlessly grateful for her patience and diligence in caring for our dogs. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for quality dog care.”
About: I have been caring for dogs and cats since I was a young teenager. I’ve grown up around them my whole life. I had a high needs dog when she was elderly. She had cancer and was allergic to everything. She required regular baths with medicated shampoo, hypoallergenic food, regular ear cleanings for ear infections, lots of medication, doggy diapers, sprays, lotions, and lots of extra love. Because of all the experience I got caring for her, I had thought for long time I might want to be a vet. If your pet requires a little extra love, I am definitely the sitter for you. I absolutely love caring for all animals big and small, young and old. If you have additional smaller pets like hamsters, birds, reptiles, etc.. I will also gladly check on those pets for you while I am there for free! I would love to love on your furbabies ❤️ I have a toddler at home but a completely open schedule to come anytime. I am an early riser and get to bed late so I am very flexible. I will take plenty of pictures to send to you while you are out and will love on them like they are my own. I can crate animals as needed as well.

“Titeara took wonderful care of our Phoebe. 💜 She was very intentional about getting to know her and introducing her to the new space. She asked great questions about what would make Phoebe feel safe and happy while we were away. It’s always hard to leave behind a pet especially with someone new, but we received so many pictures and updates that demonstrated attention to our girl and care for our preferences for her. Phoebe had a great time there, and it was really great to see pictures of her daily- clearly confident, loving, and playful.”

“Jennifer is absolutely great with dogs my chihuahua is so scared of everything she made my baby at ease.

“I do thank her for clarifying information and also thank you for being a good sitter for my dog while his regular sitter is off rover for 2 months. She is very sweet and has a nice home that uno loves . My drop off time was 8am- 9am , she started my day care I have not even arrived yet I always try to come at the last time listed which would be 9am . Also if you could include information on profile of what was told to me of … but for me anything after 10 PM is extended care since that’s my wind-down time, so there is an added charge, So that others know . I will likely book her when I don’t have events to attend I am use to end time of 11:30 with rover . I will definitely use her again when my other sitters are not available.”
“Oh my! Where do I start? Ruby is absolutely wonderful!! She is kind, welcoming, sweet, loving with my little dog and with her own dogs, (and also with birds of the sky), personable,very flexible,_ and accommodating!!! She took lots of wonderful photos during the day and shared them, just as I'd asked. I truly believe she made my dog feel at home, and when I picked him up at the end of the day, he appeared well cared for and happy. I am very happy with the service she provided today, and I believe my dog felt welcomed in her 🏡. I will feel very comfortable and happy to leave him in her care the next time I need her services.💖”

About: I have the sweetest four-year-old toy poodle who loves giving kisses and a very curious and talkative three-year-old toy poodle who likes to get into everything. I adore them and just love caring for and spoiling my two boys. I also have past experience working at a pet care franchise, so I have learned a thing or two about keeping pups happy, healthy, and safe. I am an entrepreneur, so I’ll be able to keep a close watch on your fur baby even while working. I will be able to tend to potty breaks as often as needed. My schedule is very flexible. We can work out times for drop off and pick up. I have two friendly intact male toy poodles who are kept up-to-date on all vaccines and flea medication to keep your (male) fur baby company if that is ok with you. I will keep my fur babies separate from your baby if you have a female pup. I keep my home very clean. I do live in an apartment, so your baby will have to go up and down stairs unless you prefer me to carry your baby. There is a small dog park complete with a K9 playground for lots of playtime, climbing, and running. I am very detail-oriented, so you can trust that I will follow whatever instructions you give me.

About: Growing up in a heavily animal-oriented household, I fell in love with caring for animals of all kinds. With a mother who is a professional groomer and previously a vet tech, I was exposed to dogs and animals of all breeds, temperaments, ages, and more. I have been taking on animal sitting “gigs” for as long as I can remember, and love every animal I meet! I am versed in different medical care and always willing to learn anything to help. I currently work full time with dogs on a daily basis, but love to fit in extra care when I can. I am often available for house visits, overnight visits, and more! Ideally for overnight visits, the pup/pet would be okay for 8 hours at a time due to work, but always willing to be flexible or work around as best I can. I love getting to care for pet’s in their own home, as it adds an extra level of comfort for them. I love learning their routines and following a structure that is familiar to them to make things a little less stressful!
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 a deep love and passion for animals since I was a child. I’m known to take in strays and help them either find their home or get them to a shelter so they can be taken care of . I’m very patient with every kind of animal , puppies and juveniles are my favorite seeing as though they have the most energy . I’m currently working part-time so I have all the time to sit in house with pups or cats. I’m available to board on weekends and can even provide pickup and drop off services. I have a fenced in yard and if need be I’m open to watching them from your home. All animals are free roam unless you want them crated .
About: I have been caring for dogs since I was 10 years old. I know a lot about enriching and fulfilling lots of different breeds needs! I’m currently working part time so I have plenty of time to help take care of pets that need it. I am free weekday mornings mostly and sometimes even the weekend! I follow any rules you give me about caring for your pet because I would expect the same for my four dogs! I also love bonding with new dogs!
About: I love animals. I will show your pets the same love you do and treat all animals how I would like mine to be treated (like a part of the family). All services will be treated with the same amount of care. I will walk your dogs in nice parks with beautiful scenery, water bowl on hand (of course)! I have a lot of experience with dogs and puppies, big or small. I don’t discriminate against any breeds. I know how to handle them, make them comfortable, and feel secure. I fell in love with animals when I use to attend camps at the zoo and volunteer at the humane society and animal shelters. No need to worry when you’re away, your pets are in safe hands with me. ALSO EXPERIENCED IN TAKING CARE OF OTHER ANIMALS THAN DOGS/CATS (REPTILES, FISH, BIRDS OR ANY OTHER MAMILLA TYPE)
About: I am comfortable with pets of all sizes and ages. I am a huge animal lover and treat them as if they are my own children. Id love to know how you take care of your fur babies so I can treat them just the same.

Thank you for considering me to take care of your loved ones :) I am currently awaiting for my new position with work to start so my days are extremely free at the moment. Just let me know a time day or night and we can coordinate schedules :) Whatever my client says goes; I believe my client knows their pet best. I can only stay at a clients house because my roommate is allergic to dogs and cats.

About: Had to make new account *** Hi, my name is Carson! I have been dog sitting for 10 years now. In high school I worked at Sidle Hill Farms (Dog boarding) in Southhaven, MS. I then gained clients and have been pet sitting from my home and others ever since. I have always dreamed of opening my own dog boarding and then remember I won't even take my own dog to be boarded! That is why I do what I do now, to nurture to love and to calm your pets nerves. I understand that it can be sometimes even more nerve racking for the owner then the pet... I am that owner! My husband Alex and I live in Oakland, Tn with a gorgeous fenced in yard as pictured. I work from home and usually never leave the house unless I go to Walmart up the street. We do not have any children and do not plan on it anytime soon! We are totally content with fur babies for now! A typical day at our home for your pet would include waking up in our bed, breakfast, mornings outside pending on weather (I have an outdoor desk), playing with millions of toys we can't seem to stop buying and of course when Alex comes home a walk around the neighborhood. We can't wait to meet you and your sweet fur baby! Dogs and cats are my whole life I care for them just as children. I love exercise and getting outside so pet care has come as a joy to me not just a chore. Dog walking, bathing, playing, co sleeping, cooking for pets if needed, taking them to groomers ect.. I am available to your pets needs as well as yours!

“Such a jewel we are blessed to have get helping with our fur baby. Lucci took to her the moment he saw her and that made us feel pleased at our choice. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.”
About: I have been caring for dogs and cats since I was a young teenager. I’ve grown up around them my whole life. I had a high needs dog when she was elderly. She had cancer and was allergic to everything. She required regular baths with medicated shampoo, hypoallergenic food, regular ear cleanings for ear infections, lots of medication, doggy diapers, sprays, lotions, and lots of extra love. Because of all the experience I got caring for her, I had thought for long time I might want to be a vet. If your pet requires a little extra love, I am definitely the sitter for you. I absolutely love caring for all animals big and small, young and old. If you have additional smaller pets like hamsters, birds, reptiles, etc.. I will also gladly check on those pets for you while I am there for free! I would love to love on your furbabies ❤️ I have a toddler at home but a completely open schedule to come anytime. I am an early riser and get to bed late so I am very flexible. I will take plenty of pictures to send to you while you are out and will love on them like they are my own. I can crate animals as needed as well.

About: I’ve owned different breeds of dogs from pit bulls to chihuahuas. Growing up I was the dog sitter for everyone around. I bathed walked and took care of them mostly from the comfort of their own homes as their owners were away on trips. I am between jobs rn so for the next couple weeks I am completely free any time of day any day for whatever needs my pets may need. My yard is not fenced in so outside time at my house will consist of being walked on a leash for as long as the dogs may need. But otherwise they will be inside.

“Jennifer and her family were terrific. This was my 5 month old Sheepadoodle’s first time to board. Jennifer sent me pictures and updates throughout my stay. They worked with my puppy to get her comfortable around other dogs. I have not socialized her with other dogs until this point due to age. Thus, my puppy has the only child syndrome when it comes to other dogs. When I picked her up, she was happy and content and seems to be more comfortable when we meet other dogs on our walks. Kudos to Jennifer and Family. I highly recommend her and will use her again.”

About: I've taken care of many types of animals from rodents to horses. I'm a professional dog trainer and care for even your most complex pets. Medical needs, behavior needs, and even special needs. Don't worry I can handle it! I have 4 animals myself so my entire life is already centered around the wellbeing of animals. Pet care is my passion from basic husbandry to working them through difficult emotions and giving them and their owners a better life. While your pet is staying in home with me they will be treated as one of my own. For safety your pet(s) and mine will stay separated. An evaluation can be made to see if our pets would be able to have play sessions. If not that's perfectly OK. They will have plenty of supervised and interactive play time, enrichment items such as snufflemats, toppls, and nose games. Any instructions given by you will be followed. My goal is to make your time away as relaxing, comforting, and smooth for both you and your furry family members as possible.
“Myla was so great! She was easy to talk to and responded to any questions in a very timely manner. My 2 dogs are rescue dogs and showed some initial anxiety when left for the first time. Myla was very responsive and caring and gave them exactly what they needed. She sent updates while we were gone and we returned to some very well cared for and happy dogs. I would highly recommend her!”
“Nicole was absolutely wonderful with Atlas! She was incredibly caring and attentive to his needs, and I loved that she sent me updates throughout his stay. It made such a difference being able to see him happy and settled, giving me 100% confident that he was in great hands and being well taken care of the entire time! 🤍 Would recommend and book again.”
“We couldn’t have been happier to find Amy and her family to watch Otto while we were away. Amy welcomed Otto into her family like he was their own. She sent daily pictures of Otto while they included him in their daily activities. I knew Otto was being cared for and loved while we were gone. I was almost worried he wouldn’t want to come back home!”
“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.”
