Dog Sitting Archdale

About: Hello fur-babies! I have 23 years of experience working with dogs of all breeds, personalities, and behaviors. I own a pet sitting service business called Pup-cation (serving the Triad). I’m here to give you and your pet(s) the peace of mind we all are looking for when it comes to the things we love. And that's why I'm here! I provide in-your-home pet services such as: daily drop-ins, walks, overnight stays, pet taxi, grooming drop offs/pickups, vet appointments, and customizable services! Most importantly, I build real relationships—with both you and your pets. You’ll always know what’s going on, thanks to photo and text updates that show your fur-babies are happy, safe, and well cared for. I would love the opportunity to work with you and your furry friends! Pet care is a consistent part of my daily routine and reflects my reliability. I make sure my pet’s needs—such as feeding, exercise, and grooming—are met on time every day. This routine has strengthened my sense of responsibility and helped me maintain dependable habits in both my personal and professional life. Most of my services are in the clients home. I offer daily walks on any preferred routes or if the client prefers, we can play in the backyard (if fenced in). Your pet will get the upmost love and attention.

About: My name is Mary and I have 14 years of hands-on experience with owning and caring for all types of pets, mostly dogs and cats. I have also cared for small animals like rabbits, guinea pigs, hamsters and reptiles. I enjoy working with all types of animals. My most recent experience has been working as a kennel attendant and doggie daycare attendant. My future long-term goals are to become a dog trainer and own my own pet daycare business. I’m here to help you and care for your furry friend. I will make sure that you are happy as well as your pet! My schedule is currently flexible. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask by texting or calling. I work part-time at a doggie daycare and therefore, have many available hours to help other clients with their pet care needs. Once I commit to a job for a client, I always let the client know my schedule well in advance and will be reliable. My services include bathing, walking, feeding, and playing. I am accustomed to administering medications to dogs and cats. I have also worked with very elderly dogs who are blind, deaf and wheelchair bound. I can do house-sitting or drop ins. I can take in dog in my house.

About: I am a stay at home mom in the greater Charlotte area. I do Lyft part time and as a result I have the flexibility to do drop in visits and walks pretty much any time. Currently, I only provide dog sitting services at the dog's home, drop-in visits and dog walking services. Dogs adjust to the stress of their owners being away better when they are in a familiar environment. Drop-in visits include feeding the dog, giving them water, let them out to play, baths, and give them walks as needed. I can also bring in the mail, water plants, etc, I like for the animals to stick to their natural routine as closely as possible and make the time while their owners are away go by fast. My child is 2 and will be watched during the day from 8:30 am -6:00 pm. For overnight stays depending on the day of the week he will be with me or it can be worked out that he can stay with family members if your dogs aren’t used to small children. He is an animal lover like his mother. He is around a small dog during the day everyday since he was about 13 months old. He has a great affection for dogs. I have always love dogs since I was young and being able to give them love and meet their needs works perfectly for me! Things I would like to know before meeting your fur baby! *What are their likes and dislikes *What does a routine schedule consist of *How many times a day to you feed your fur baby *Is your fur baby kenneled or allowed to be free while your away * Are there any special dietary needs, medications, conditions that would require extra attention and care * How does your pet interact with other animals (in case walking and come across another dog or a rabbit) I would love to do a meet and greet with you and your fur baby at a dog friendly park or in the privacy of your home!

About: I’ve been dog sitting for 4 years now for four different families. I’ve taken care of many different breeds and ages ranging from puppies to senior dogs. I really have enjoyed dog sitting and meeting new fur babies. I currently work 7.5 hours a day, but I go in at 10am and usually have a good amount of time in the morning to spend time with the pups before I go in. In the evening I spend a couple of hours if I am not staying the night. Weekends are very flexible and I spend as much time with the pups. I like to meet before dog sitting and go over specific instructions the owner may have for me and to get familiar with the pet and where their stuff is at.

“Joshua was beyond perfect! This was my first time using any type of dog sitting service. From the beginning I was completely at ease, knowing my dog was going to be well taken care of. Joshua exceeded my expectations. I would like to keep him all to myself! My dog misses him!! : )”

“Home drop in went well, after we got our communication straight.. Martini's first drop in and happy he responded well to the sitter. A true life saver when you're away and pup needs a potty break.”

About: I have over 8 years of personal experience providing pet and house sitting for multiple clients, caring for pets of all personalities and needs. I also grew up around animals, thanks to my mom working at a pet store, giving me hands-on experience with a wide variety of animals beyond just cats and dogs. I focus on keeping pets comfortable in their routines while giving you peace of mind with attentive, loving care. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine. While I do work full time, caring for animals is a top priority for me. Days typically start and end with two daily walks, plenty of playtime, and enrichment. I have a dog of my own, so my schedule already revolves around making sure pets get exercise, attention, and stimulation through toys, enrichment activities, and downtime for cuddles. I plan my days to ensure every pet in my care receives consistent attention, routine, and love. I provide a safe, animal-friendly environment in my home and always tailor care to each pet’s individual needs. My entire home is animal-friendly, with dog gates and crates available if needed to ensure the comfort and safety of any pets. While my yard is not fenced, we have plenty of space for supervised play and exercise, and all outdoor time is closely monitored. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their usual routine as closely as possible and let each pet set the pace. This could mean active play, enrichment time, walks, or quiet cuddles. Every pet is different, and my goal is to make them feel comfortable, secure, and well cared for wherever they are.

“Karina did a wonderful job caring for our senior cat. She was responsible and had good communication, so we felt our cat was in good hands while we were away. She also took the initiative to clean the litter box without my asking, which was very thoughtful. Thank you, Karina!”

“Lola was amazing!!! She took great care of our dog while we were away and did a great job providing daily updates. We will definitely be using her again.”

“Super great and will be a repeat client!! Marcella was willing to do everything we asked (normal cat stuff making sure they’re fed and please play with and give pets, don’t let outside etc.), but also things like can you let us know if the power is out while you’re there or a package is outside can you bring in? She was willing and stayed the whole time we booked her for! I was able to meet her before she came to cat-sit and she seemed super chill and just the type of person I’d want while I’m away. Her updates were personalized and funny with lots of good pics I’ll be saving for myself haha. Thank you sooo much Marcella!”

About: If you need caring, compassionate, reliable, loving service for your furry sweethearts I am available to make them the center of attention. With me they get a bit of a holiday themselves. My work takes me oceanside for extended periods: so when I’m available to house/pet sit for you, I am devoted to all their needs. Presently I am auntie to several cats and dogs that for more than a decade I have been house/pet sitting. I have also cared for horses, goats, chickens, geese and peacocks. I love learning animal’s individual personalities and ingratiating myself in to their familial pack. In my life I have owned a German Shepherd, a Malinois and a Husky as well as numerous cats. I grew up walking the dog, so I prefer to exercise the canines regularly. Playtime for everyone will include some brushing. I have no problems giving oral medications or injections. And I have cared for sick animals of my own as well as others. My entry in to your home will be with complete respect, integrity and detailed consideration. My references will tell you how I am attentive not only to your pets but your home: be it garden or plant care, and most especially having your home be as if you had never left upon your return.

About: I've taken care of dogs for 13 years. No kids and or animals at home. I love animals and welcome cats and dogs of any size or breed. I live walking distance from a soccer field with a great track for walks. Both of my senior dogs crossed the rainbow bridge recently and before their passing we had a nice routine going. I work nearby and will come home on my breaks to check on the pups and take them out on pee breaks. I have Wednesdays, Saturdays, and Sundays off, which I normally spend at home or on hikes at local parks. I do not have a fenced in yard. However, I have no issue with pets on the furniture and I have a spare room for crates.

“Valerid struck me as quite competent and professional at her first visit. Best of all she seemed to hit it off right away with my cat, Lucille. It was obvious on our return that she'd done everything very well, and the best part was that she sent pictures of a very happy cat, especially of her being "skritched." Lucille can be shy with strangers but she seemed to take to Valerie right away, and that's the best sign. Valerie left the premises neat and tidy, another plus. I definitely would consider Valerie again when we need to go out of towm.”

About: I have been taking care of animals since I was 14, I have had a dog of my own and trained him to sit, Speak, shake, get the mail, get my shoes, and give me a hug :) I LOVE LOVE LOVE Animals so much and hope I get to have some time with yours! I currently Work full-time at foodlion on n Main Street but I live two minutes away from home. I am mainly home night and I have two days off work but if I’m off I’m always at home. I can be flexible when it come to boarding or taking walks because I have a set schedule at work but if I need to move things around I am also willing to do that. I live in a one bedroom apartment, we have a big place to walk around and play behind the building as well as a round about in the apartment complex. I use to live in archdale and know where there’s a big park where I can take dogs and just go for walk or runs and just have fun! I love to play frisbee golf with my friends but I don’t play seriously so if your dog wanted to Chase a frisbee or in my case help me find my then I’d definitely be up for that!

“Caroline was great and saved the day by taking a last minute Friday night booking when I had an emergency out of town. Super kind and communicative. Thanks for your help and you rock!”

About: Hello! I have been pet sitting for 5 years, either staying overnight or just stopping by! I absolutely love watching doggies and helping out when I can. I am able to do whatever you need, I will feed, walk, bathe, etc. i absolutely love meeting new fur babies!! I currently am a student at high point university, majoring in biology. Most of my schedule consists of classes that are about an hour long with hour breaks in between each class. I have a part-time job hosting, only 2 days a week at night time. I am able to take dogs out on a leash, let them out in a yard, crate them, or whatever the plan may be. I can also walk them and pick up after them if preferred! I will give them lots of love and make sure they are comfortable.

About: I have taken care of many different types of dogs! I have walked/sat for dogs of all ages- from puppies to our powder-sugar faced babies! I have also worked with a few dogs with disabilities (mostly physical limitations). I’m currently a student in physical therapy school looking for a creative way to exercise and spend time with animals while I am away from my own two dogs! I love giving belly rubs and head scratches (and maybe even slip them an extra treat) to make your pet feel safe and happy! I also like to run so I would be able to run as well as walk with your dogs.

About: I’ve owned dogs since I was a little girl playing in the dirt on a country farm. I’ve been around animals in some capacity all my life. I’ve owned many different breeds of dogs throughout my life, from small to large. I currently have one little Yorkiepoo, Ella, who is most definitely a lap dog, always searching for a good tummy rub, and who is missing her sweet brother, Odie, a dachshund mix who recently crossed the rainbow bridge. We miss our sweet boy so much. I am also the very proud grandma to two sweet grandpups whom I dog-sit regularly. Meadow Maui, a sweet, shy Golden Pyrenees, and Fawn Faye, a rambunctious Rough Collie, have me wrapped around their paws. They love visiting Grandma’s house because they know it’s full of treats, belly rubs, snuggles, and nonstop spoiling. 🐾 I am available daily for drop-ins, cuddles, and dog walks. I also provide boarding in my home. I require a meet and greet prior to boarding so that your dog can meet my small Yorkiepoo, Ella. I have a fenced in backyard and many dogs have enjoyed their time staying at my house. I regularly dog-sit my daughter’s two rambunctious pups. As a teacher, I am a rule follower, pay close attention to detail, and strive to make your pups fall in love with their temporary grandma. I’m used to being up super early and will make sure your pups get the love, attention, and care they need while you’re away. My daughter is in the vet tech industry and is always a phone call away to answer any questions I may have about basic dog care needs.
