House Sitting Albemarle

About: I prioritize your pet’s safety and comfort by providing a secure environment in both my home and yours. I follow your pet’s routine, ensure medications are administered as needed, and keep a close eye on their well-being. In your home, I respect your space, keeping everything tidy and secure. My goal is to ensure your pet feels safe, loved, and relaxed while you’re away. Pet care is a priority in my daily routine, and I always make time for the pets I care for. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide consistent care, whether it’s multiple visits per day or extended overnight stays. I ensure your pet gets the attention they need, whether it’s for walks, playtime, or just companionship. I tailor my schedule to meet your pet’s specific needs, so they always feel comfortable and well-cared for. I am a dedicated pet sitter with a passion for caring for cats and dogs. I have experience administering medications, maintaining routines, and providing extra attention to senior pets or those with special needs. Taking care of your furry friends and making sure they feel loved and keeping your cat’s environment clean and stress-free, I go above and beyond to ensure your pet feels safe, loved, and well cared for. Your pet’s happiness and well-being are my top priority!

About: I’ve always had pets, and started volunteering with a vet at 14 and continued until I left for college. For a time I worked as a ranch hand taking care of 8+ horses and a menagerie of other animals. I am also a fully trained dog groomer and currently work as a veterinary assistant. I am comfortable with my canine friends of all shapes, sizes, and life stages, including those with special needs including medication administration. I currently work 4 days weekly in Mount Pleasant, NC from 7:30am - 5:30pm with a one hour break mid-day and weekends off. My schedule allows me to see your pet at least twice daily (or up to three times depending on distance from my place of employment). I take care to establish a personal relationship with every pet that I meet. Every dog, cat, or fish have their own distinct personality and the better I know them, the more personalized care I can provide. I can feed, water, clean up after pets, administer medication, walk, groom (for an extra fee), and even work on any set training that you would like kept up. My biggest priority is keeping you and your pet happy and healthy.

“Abby was great at helping my nervous, shy dog become comfortable and happy while I was gone. She cuddled with her, played with her, walked her and enjoyed her with friends in the neighborhood. She helped my sweet girl feel like everything was just as it would be if I would be there. She was a great dog sitter, and I would happily have her again.”

“We were visiting Damascus VA to bike the VA Creeper Trail and needed someone to stay in our camper with our dog because he has some separation issues. She was there on time, he immediately went to her. She was friendly and caring. When we returned three hours later, he was happy, wagging and tired. She relieved our minds so we could do what we planned and know our pup was in good hands. Highly recommend.”

About: I love all animals, but dogs most of all. I grew up around larger breeds - my parents had pit bulls, boxers, and German shepherds. In my adult life, I've had mostly shar-pei and beagles. I currently have four rescued beagle mixes, as well as three cats. My pets are like my children, and I believe everyone's babies deserve to be treated as well as I treat mine! My purpose in life is helping as many dogs as I can to live their best life. That help comes in different forms - I network, foster, and transport with local rescues, and pet sit for a few friends. I'm also a former trainer with a large pet store. The best part of my workday was getting to see all the dogs that come in the store each day. Whether I encountered them as students or casual customers, I always did my best to make sure the dogs always left with the best products and advice for their health and happiness. I also volunteered and was hired to work at Stanly County Animal Protective Services, and was responsible for the day to day care of all the animals in the shelter - including feeding, walking, socializing, and providing any medications needed. Helping a dog to be more comfortable in the sometimes stressful shelter environment was always my main goal. Unfortunately, I had to leave the job due to health reasons. I'm no longer able to work full time, so sitting and walking with Rover seems like the perfect part time job for me! If I can cause a tail to wag, I consider it a good day. 🐾 I'm currently hoping to find work a few days a week, walking dogs or keeping them company in the afternoons primarily. Weekdays are when I'm most available, but I would be happy to discuss occasional nights or weekends if that's what you need! If you need to go out of town and can't take your furry friends with you, I'm also able to do multiple check-ins per day, or even stay in your home with your pets if you wish. Your rules are my rules! I will care for your pets in whatever way you tell me they're used to. They will eat, walk, etc on the schedule you have them on. If you don't have a fenced yard, I'll never take them outside without a leash, and only walk on your approved routes. If you have any off limits areas in your house, I will ensure they don't have access to them. Any medications will be administered promptly on their existing schedule. I want your dog to feel like you're there, even when you're not!

“This is either the 3rd or 4th time Jeffery has stayed with our critters in our home. He is just SO reliable, respectful, professional, and we have no worries when we're away. Our dogs and cat love his calm nature and that's exactly what our reactive boy needs. I hope we can continue to have Jeffery sit for us for years to come! I am just so grateful to have someone we can trust in our home with our kiddos.”

About: I’ve lived with dogs since I can remember. I developed love an respect for animals from a young age. At home we had cocker spaniel, beagle, Shih Tzu, Siberian husky and mix breeds. I work from home in a very convenient schedule to take care of your furry baby’s needs. It’s always a pleasure make a doggy happy. No pet caring at home available at the moment. Maybe in the near future. Stay tuned. No pet caring at home available at the moment. Maybe in the near future. Stay tuned.

I’m comfortable caring for animals of all ages, from playful puppies and kittens to senior pets who need a little extra patience and attention. I’m very attentive to each pet’s individual needs and love making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. I currently work part-time at a restaurant in the mornings only once or twice a week, so my schedule is very flexible.

I’m also happy to communicate ahead of time to make sure my availability works well with your schedule! Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities.

About: I've always help take care of dogs since I was young. I've helped family, friends and neighbors with their pets with walking, feeding an pet sitting. And I have fostered in the past. Im currently only working 3 days a week and some weekends. Im available on my days off an some weekends as my days each week rotate. I like to learn what is best for your pet in their home an what makes them most comfortable with a new person until your pet is comfortable with me

“Booked with Cameron for an evening away. He was very good with my three pups. He sent photos and asked questions that evening if he was unsure of something rather than assuming or guessing. I will be booking with Cameron again for longer trips away in the future.”

About: I’ve been working with animals since I was 15 and have loved every minute of it. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or simply keeping your pet company, my goal is to make them feel safe, loved, and right at home until you return. Living an active lifestyle has taught me the importance of reliability and balance. No matter what’s on my schedule, I always make time to give every pet the attention, affection, and care they deserve. Whether your dog loves to play, relax, or just have someone nearby, they’ll feel right at home here. My goal is to provide a safe, happy, and loving environment so you can travel with complete peace of mind.

“Five stars isn’t enough! Philip is incredible- friendly, relaxed, and instant friends with new pups. We had never left our puppy for more than a few nights, but had a two week honeymoon planned. Philip came over to meet Cabby before the trip, and his professional but warm attitude put our minds at ease immediately. He sent us pictures and updates while we were gone, gave our girl lots of love, and followed her routine (including medication) to give her stability. He also took great care of our home- I swear it might be cleaner than when we left! Without a doubt, the best experience all-around. We will absolutely be reaching out to Philip and Mallory when we start planning our next trip. Thank you so much, Philip, for taking care of Cabby like your own ❤️ and she sends kisses!”

“Bradley and Stephanlee were amazing!! They stayed at our home for 9 days and cared for our bernedoodle. They were responsive, polite, and frequently sent us updates and pictures. We are so grateful for them and we were able to relax and not worry about our girl!! Definitely recommend.”

About: I grew up with having a dog around the house, so I have always loved being around pets. The last two summers I have pet sat for families while they were on vacation. Some of the dogs I have taken care of have had medical needs, so I am able to give dogs medication if needed. I have taken care of big and small dogs. I look forward to working and taking care of your pet! During the summer I have more availability outside of when I am on vacation. For house sitting services, I am happy to provide overnight care for your pet. There will be times I will leave the home to run errands, go to work, family time and etc. But I will make sure that your pet’s routine is kept in tact and that they get all the snuggles and love they need. I am a full time teacher so once the school year starts my availability will change. I will not be able to provide pet care in my home. But I can provide pet care in a clients home. I am able to provide walks, feed your pet, provide snuggles, and medication if needed. I will ensure the client home stays clean if I am booked for overnight pet care. If it is too hot outside I may limit the time for the walk. I will also bring a water bottle with a bowl to make sure your dog does not overheat.

“Yolanda was good with my dog. He seemed to enjoy her. I would use her again in the future!!”

About: I grew up raising all different types of animals (birds, rabbits, dogs, lizards) and consider my pets my family. I have about 5 years of paid experience caring for pets and I have a cat of my own. :) I'm currently working from home and I have much free time during the day to make drop in visits or stay for a few hours/overnight as needed. You can ensure that your pets will be treated with the utmost care and looked after for as I would look after my own pets. :)

“Amanda was an excellent house sitter! She was flexible with times, sent photos of how the dogs were doing and left the house perfectly like when she found it. The dogs enjoyed her company, and she was meticulous in giving medications. We are so happy to have found such a great sitter.”

“Lara was very responsive when setting up the visit and agreed to meet ahead of time to go over some of my pups quirks. She kept me updated throughout her stay and Jambo seems very happy and calm when I returned home. I would definitely book Lara again.”

About: I’ve cared for dogs my whole life, including my 3-year-old Goldendoodle and 8-year-old Golden Retriever. I’m experienced with daily walks, feeding routines, playtime, and giving both energetic and senior dogs the attention they need. I’m flexible and able to work around most schedules, including weekdays, weekends, and overnight stays with advance notice, and I’ll always communicate clearly to confirm timing before each booking. When your pet is with me, you can expect consistent care, attention, and safety, including walks, playtime, feeding, and water checks exactly as instructed, along with a calm and patient approach for all dog personalities and energy levels. I also provide regular updates with photos and messages so you always know how your pet is doing, and I treat every dog like family. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priority at all times. I provide a calm, secure, and supervised environment where dogs are never left unattended during care, and I always follow owner instructions carefully for feeding, walks, and routines. I’m attentive to each dog’s behavior and needs to make sure they feel safe, relaxed, and comfortable, whether they’re energetic or more laid-back. I also keep a clean environment and make sure pets are always in a safe space during visits or stays.
