About: I have a love for all animals, as a child growing up I have always wanted to be a Veterinarian Assistant. I began doing foster care for dogs in 2020 after doing this for a while I felt a much greater need to help even more. I began my own dog rescue in 2020. I walk, play, love and care for each animal. I have rescued and rehomed several dogs to safe and loving homes. I treat them as if they were my own. The unbreakable bond between pets and their people is something that will forever warm my heart! I’m currently working part time. I’m available after work and on my off days. Just message me and we can make things work! I’m more than happy to help! I have three fur-babies of my own and they love to run around and play outside, there is 7-acres of land, and the best part is not by any main roads, it’s private. I also walk my dogs or let them play inside with some toys. Depending on your pet and your instructions for your pet, I’ll make sure that your pet and you as well feel comfortable with things. If it’s a client’s home then whatever instructions are given I’ll make sure to go by!
About: I've always taken in stray dogs or cats growing up , I'm 34, and being with animals is therapeutic for me. I've trained my full grown golden doodle into adult hood although I got busy with dental school and decided it best for her well being to give her to a loving family who would be able to give her more attention because when going through dental hygiene school , I knew before starting I would not be able to give her the full attention that she deserved , me and my son had her for 5 great years and still visit with her and her new family . I am now no longer in dental school although I do work in dentistry and am looking for a part time side hustle , thank you for giving me this opportunity , working with animals is actually I job I enjoy. I do live in Kentwood La - very rural country , I am willing to travel as there is not a lot of business out here thank you for your understanding. I currently work as an expanded dental assistant working Monday - Thursday , the latest I get off is 4:30 and most days earlier than that . I work one Friday out of the month . I can come to you and watch your animals after 4:30 during the week If not earlier than that time , and I'm usually free Friday thru Sundays , I'll work with you and your schedule. I provide attentive and reliable care for pets as if they are my own children. Will keep update with pics/videos. Respect and communication is key.
“Alexandra was great and kept our two pups happy, exercised and safe along with caring for home with care. We also appreciated the daily updates and “proof of life” pictures she shared.”

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs for 8 years now. My family relies on me to take care of their dogs while they are gone out of town every month. I feed them, walk them, and play with them. I’m currently at home full time, and available to take care of your fur baby anytime of the day or night. I have two grade school boys, ages 9 and 13, who loves small and big baby kitties. I have certain areas of my home blocked off so the kitties can’t get into anything. I also have a small baby kitty who loves to play with other fur babies and keep them company.Your baby kitties will be be perfectly safe in my home.

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life, but I started taking a more active role in their care about 9 years ago. I began by helping with family pets and more recently started doing my own pet sitting and drop-ins. I’ve worked with dogs of all sizes and personalities and have experience handling multiple dogs at once. I really enjoy getting to know each dog and figuring out what they like and need. I try to keep things calm and consistent so they feel comfortable while you’re away. I’m still building my experience, which is part of why my rates are lower right now, but I take pet care seriously and focus on giving your pet reliable, quality care. I’m currently in college. So my schedule is finicky. At school (Columbus, MS area): I’m available most afternoons. At home (Laurel/Hattiesburg, MS area): I’m mainly available on weekends and school breaks. Best times at home: Friday nights Anytime Saturday Sunday afternoons Schedule subject to change—please check my calendar for the most up-to-date availability. 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 also keep communication clear so you always know how things are going.
About: I’ve Been around Dogs for most of my life. From my dogs to my neighbors and friends dogs. I have a very strong passion for animals because of it. I’m mostly home with my pets.. So I asked my self why shouldn’t I make a job out of something I enjoy and already do. I will enjoy getting to spend time with ur fur babies. I look forwards to meeting each and everyone of you. Lmk if you have any questions regarding my services.
About: I’ve loved dogs my whole life—I grew up with them until I left for college and couldn’t bring them with me. I know how to handle both puppies, with all their energy and training needs, and senior dogs who just need patience and comfort. I’m reliable, I’ll treat your dog like my own, and I’ll always keep you updated so you know they’re happy and cared for. I have a full time job but I’m a college soccer coach so I have a lot of flexibility and places I can bring the pups. I’m basically alyss free I grew up in a super clean and disciplined household where home meant everything. Because of that, I’ve always been big on keeping things neat and taking care of a space like it’s my own. When I’m in someone’s home, I make sure it stays tidy, organized, and safe while I’m also caring for their pets. I know how important it is to come back to a house that feels the same way you left it—if not better. So while the pets get plenty of love, attention, and routine, I’m also looking out for the home itself.
