Daniel has been wonderful for Hobie! He goes above and beyond and has been a bright spot during a stressful relocation. I was nervous about bringing my sometimes anxious dog to a new place but Daniel has made it so that Hobie is now living his best life and has a new bestie!!! Highly recommend!

A heart felt thank you to Cindy and Colby for taking such good care of Jasmine the past few months. We were staying in a rental while building a new home and they came twice daily taking long walks with her while I was working. They are very friendly, always right on time, and made sure she was given plenty of treats and love. I was at ease knowing Jasmine was happy and well cared for. Thank you for making the past few months easy for us! Jasmine will miss you!

Rachel is outstanding. She takes such excellent care of our senior gal, Harley. When Harley cuts her walks short due to her arthritis pain, Rachel spends extra time cuddling with her on the floor and showering her with lots of love. Best dog walker around!

About: I have 2 special needs cats, and 1 geriatric cat currently, so I understand how to give medication and provide detailed care. Their needs, personalities, and play styles all differ as well, so I know how to care and provide individual enrichment. I've had several dogs and two corn snakes before. I'm currently in between jobs, so I'm able to provide a flexible schedule throughout each day the week. I will update accordingly as my schedule changes. Having 3 cats requires thinking ahead with keeping a clean and safe environment. I provide care for their Feline hyperesthesia syndrome, asthma, and irritable bowel disease. This means ensuring the right medicine is applied to their meals, a fixed diet, cleanliness, and enough exercise and enrichment is provided daily.

About: I’ve had dogs as long as I can remember. I love playing with dogs and walking them. I can handle any size dog as well as administering meds etc. I’m recently retired so my schedule is normally very flexible. I can usually be available at a short notice if needed to be a help for your pet. I do not board pets at my home as we already have 3 of our own to love and care for on a daily basis

About: I grew up with family dogs and cats. You name it, we’ve had the breed. From chihuahuas, to huskies, to dobermans, to great danes. Therefore extremely comfortable with all sized fur babies. I have experience with all ages, from puppies as we have bred our great danes years ago, twice, to elderly dogs who are blind and/or deaf. etc. I actually have my own pup, she is a husky. Her name is cora and she is definitely a handful but i am blessed my hands are full with a smart, funny yet stubborn puppy haha. I also have cats, lazy fat house cats haha. I was looking for job opportunity that will allow me flexibility, work with fur babies (may or may not like them better then humans haha) and to be a mom to my 10 months old daughter as well, that is why i am pursuing Rover in hopes i can do it all at once. Looking forward to meeting your fur babies soon :) My pets daily care is naturally apart of my daily routine, she is family. Not just an animal. Animals cannot fend for themselves, it is important to me that my animals feel important, instead of a burden. My husky, Cora, is walked every two hours and fed two meals a day and has access to water 24/7. I am flexible to learn other animals schedules and eating times, as every animal is different.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 7. At 10 I walked dogs for my parents friends and neighbors. I love dogs and cats! I’m retired and wanted something to do that I enjoyed. I love animals and would love to spend more time with them and exercise with them! I have fenced yard my home and two fur babies that love company. I can crate if that’s what what you prefer we will keep them company so they won’t feel alone.

About: I have been taking care of dogs since as long as I can remember, as my family has always had dogs. From labs to golden retrievers to small rat terriers, I’ve experienced a variety of dogs and it’s been a constant family obligation to make sure the dogs are always taken care of by being fed, walked, bathed/groomed, nurtured, etc. Dogs to me have always been part of the family, and should be considered a first priority and not just an after thought. I love playing with them and taking them outside when I can, and I’m young so I can (usually) still keep up with them! I always make sure to clean up after them when going on walks. I also used to volunteer at an animal shelter in my free time. I am still getting used to cats so I don’t know as much about their specific care but I am always willing to learn more. I am used to going on walks twice a day with my dog and taking her on hikes with me when I can. Her care is a part of my daily routine. I make sure to stay attentive to pets when it seems like they want attention/something from me. I work from home so I can be nearby them most of the day. I always follow their specific food schedule (or any medication) and keep the water bowls filled. I set aside time to take them outside/for a walk and clean up after them. I also love to play with them inside/lay down together.

About: I’ve had dogs all my life, both small and large. I really enjoy taking care of them and entertaining them. I’m open to learning how to take care of your puppy and meet all their needs. I’m home for the summer, so I’m free most days. I do have a job Monday through Friday, 8am-2pm, but I’m very available in the evenings for any help. Weekends are pretty free if I’m not traveling! I have a fenced in yard and a very walkable neighborhood. I also have no other pets currently, so if they need one-on-one attention, I can do just that.

About: 7 years of loving your pets. Dogs have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember — not just as pets, but as companions, teachers, and joy-bringers. I’ve always felt most at peace when I’m surrounded by animals and nature. Whether I’m hiking a quiet trail with a furry friend by my side, playing fetch in an open field, or simply relaxing on a porch after a long day outdoors, I find happiness in the simple, grounded connection that dogs and the natural world provide. I value patience, kindness, and structure — all qualities that guide the way I care for animals. For me, caring for dogs isn't just a job — it’s who I am at my core. I am a dedicated and compassionate animal care professional with hands-on experience in canine enrichment, behavioral observation, and facility operations. At Woof Pack Pet Services in Boone, NC, I served as an Enrichment Counselor, Kennel Attendant, and New Hire Trainer, where I led tailored group enrichment sessions to promote dogs' mental well-being, trained new staff in safe and effective animal handling protocols, and developed individualized care plans for dogs with medical or behavioral needs. I also administered medications, monitored health changes, and maintained strong communication with both clients and veterinary professionals to ensure timely care. At Mills River Dog Camp in Mills River, NC, I expanded my leadership skills as a Shift Supervisor, managing the daily care of over 50 dogs, supervising staff, and implementing training and de-escalation strategies for anxious or reactive dogs. I’m experienced in maintaining detailed health and behavior records and have consistently prioritized both animal welfare and client satisfaction through attentive care, structured routines, and open communication. When you trust me with your pet, you're not just getting someone who knows how to follow instructions — you're getting someone who genuinely cares. I have extensive hands-on experience working with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments, including those with medical needs, behavioral challenges, or a little extra anxiety. I treat every animal with the same level of attentiveness, patience, and love that I would want for my own. I believe in clear communication, both with animals and their people, and I always aim to provide peace of mind through consistent care, safety, and respect. Whether your pet needs a playful buddy, a calm presence, or a structured routine, I’m here to ensure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Pet care is an integral part of my life and a true passion. Daily, I dedicate time to understanding and meeting each animal’s unique needs—whether it’s through enrichment activities, administering medications, or simply providing companionship and comfort. Over the years, I’ve developed routines that prioritize the physical and emotional well-being of pets in my care, balancing structured schedules with flexibility to respond to individual behaviors and health changes. Weekly, I continuously update my knowledge on animal behavior and care techniques to ensure the highest quality of service. I am now seeking to turn this dedication into a full-time career where I can combine my hands-on experience, love for animals, and commitment to their welfare to make a meaningful difference every day. I tailor my pet care approach based on the environment and individual needs of each animal. In my home, I create a calm, safe, and engaging space with plenty of enrichment activities, consistent routines, and close monitoring of health and behavior to ensure pets feel comfortable and loved. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their established routines, preferences, and any specific care instructions. I focus on maintaining consistency to reduce stress, providing companionship, administering medications if needed, and keeping the environment clean and secure. Communication with the pet owner is key to ensuring their pet’s needs are met and any concerns are promptly addressed. My priority is always the well-being and happiness of the pet, adapting my care style to create a positive, trusting experience whether at home or theirs.

About: I have been raised with all types of animals. Family and friends have trusted me to stop in for quick visits and also spend the night and care for babies for extended periods of time. I currently am taking online college classes and working part time so I am capable of working my schedule around when I would need to be available for you and your pets needs. My own pets have their own crates, and are friendly. I also have 3 cats that are used to being around dogs of all sizes.

Hello, My name is Julia. I’ve known Jocelyn roughly 22 years, our mothers were childhood friends. Jocelyn has an extraordinary relationship with animals, she definitely is more fond of them than humans. She is so understanding of animals and their nature in ways i cannot begin to comprehend, her empathy for them are so deep. She is patient, loving, and has a welcoming spirit. Animals tend to cling to her from what i have witnessed growing up. I truly believe all fur babies would be more than safe and loved in her care.

I am used to going on walks twice a day with my dog and taking her on hikes with me when I can. Her care is a part of my daily routine. I make sure to stay attentive to pets when it seems like they want attention/something from me. I work from home so I can be nearby them most of the day. I always follow their specific food schedule (or any medication) and keep the water bowls filled. I set aside time to take them outside/for a walk and clean up after them. I also love to play with them inside/lay down together.

Lauren takes great care of my 4 year old lab. Unlimited walks, cuddles and toys. Not only with my dog, but she has a massive heart for any animal. I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone looking for a dog sitter/walker.

I have known Judith for over 12 years and can honestly state that her love for all animals is beyond question. Her care and love for her GSP, Dax, is without limits. The same can be said in regards to other animals. If a strange cat enters her yard, she immediately attempts to coax the cat closer so she can pet and comfort the animal. When her family has been over to visit, their dogs too get equal treatment as if they were hers. I know she takes the time to walk Dax more often than most. Judith is always attentative to the needs of the animal.

I’m sure I don’t have enough word space given to write just how wonderful Laura is with animals! I have known Laura for several years and she has loved, cared for and treated my dog, Nala, as her own when in her care. Laura goes above and beyond to make sure all of Nala’s needs were met and exceeded them on a daily basis. Laura made sure Nala had daily enrichment activities in addition to normal walks, etc. Nala loved Laura so much and very much looked forward to having Laura care for her. Laura exudes love and positive energy everyday. You can tell how much she truly loves her job and each dog that is in her care. Laura is beyond dedicated and will go the extra mile to ensure your pet is taken care of like they are one of her own. Laura’s love for animals shines through with how much Nala always loved play time with Laura. I cannot recommend Laura enough! She is the most trustworthy and devoted person to take care of your animal! Without a doubt, Laura would be my go to person whenever you would need pet care! Do not hesitate to book Laura for your pet care needs! She is absolutely amazing!!

Carley is a wonderful pet sitter. She has stayed at my house a few different times and each time we are very pleased. All 3 of my dogs love her, and get so happy to see her when she comes by. No other person I would recommend!
