“Skyla was really responsive and our pup was happy upon our return. She checked in about her eating, took her on walks, sent photos and updates and overall seemed great with our dog. We really appreciated her flexibility and care!”

About: I have grown up with all sizes and ages of dogs from an elderly black Lab to a baby Maltese Shitzu. I love all types of animals and have pet-sat for many people, including coworkers, neighbors, and roommates. I am a recent graduate of Appalachian State University living in Boone for the summer. Then moving to Greenville, NC in the Fall to attend East Carolina University for graduate school. I am available anytime! To care best for your animal, I will respect the space and privacy of your home. Please provide specifications so I can ensure all guidelines will be followed.

“Layne did a great job with our dog Carly! She is a wonderful person and Carly did not miss a beat with her. We would highly recommend and would happily use her again!”

About: Reliable pet sitter for over 10 years and experienced in puppy training, senior care, medications, and routine-based care, providing attentive, personalized support for every pet. I want to make sure your pet receives loving care when you’re not there. I am a student but I have a flexible schedule and can provide reliable walks and pet sitting during weekdays and weekends. I can make most any time or day work! I care for pets in familiar, stress-free environments, maintaining routines, cleanliness, and safety while providing gentle, attentive care. I prioritize safety by following instructions carefully, keeping environments clean and calm, and treating every home and pet with respect.

“Angel was timely, communicative, and overall the perfect pet sitter! We intend to use her services again and again. She sent lots of pictures, and took wonderful tender care of our post-op dog during his recovery.”

About: I have had at least one dog my whole life. I have pet-sit and walked dogs of my friends and neighbors for many years, specifically older dogs, that require more patience. I am currently a student at App State, and I am in Boone for the summer. I would love to come walk and spend time with your animals! I am highly flexible and attentive to the specific needs of your pets. I have no pets while in Boone so your animals will be my only commitment.

“You are in good hands with Katrina! She was so accommodating and our dog had a great time with her. Look forward to have her sit for us again!”

“Pheobe was super easy to work with and did a great job with our three cats. She handled kitty digestive issues and wild kitten energy with grace and even kept the house tidy in the midst of cat chaos! Would recommend ☺️”

About: I absolutely love animals and have been pet sitting for a while now and have also grown up with both dogs and cats in the home. I have pet sat for both dogs and cats since late high school. Back home I have 2 dogs, German Shepard(11F) and great dane/German Shepard mix(1M) and I have a cat back home as well who is 12. I have experience with animals of all different ages, from 5 months to senior(16 years) with dogs and 3 months to about 12 years for cats. I also have experience with both indoor and outdoor cats, I have one of each and have cared for other people's as well. I currently do not have work and am available all day Friday through Sunday. During the week I have classes but am available to drop in for pet care before, in between, and after classes. I follow the client's instructions exactly and ensure that the clients pets get the care they need.

“Sarah kept me updated on how things were going, and she was always prompt to respond to my messages - two things that are highly important to me! My boy is a typical small dog and can be a little fiesty but he seemed to warm to Sarah very quickly! I had to find a pet sitter at the last minute when my scheduled sitter got sick and Sarah was flexible and accommodating so that I didn’t have to change any plans!”

About: Hey there! I’m Christine! I am a lifelong animal lover with over 4 years of experience in dog walking and sitting. Growing up, I was always surrounded by furry friends, and that passion has only grown since then. I believe every walk is an adventure, and I love to play and have fun with dogs of all shapes and sizes. Your pup will get plenty of exercise, love, and attention while they’re with me. I will also treat your dog with the same love I give to my own family. My schedule is pretty relaxed especially now being summer so I will have much time to care for your pet's needs practically all day if necessary! I have been taking care of my own dogs for years and will be able to ensure that they are safely kept inside/outside during the day and in their proper sleeping quarters for night.

“Cassie took wonderful care of our one-year-old Australian Shepherd mix and our 16-year-old cat. Frankie is full of energy and needs lots of exercise and attention, and Cassie handled it all with ease, sharing great photos and updates along the way. We felt completely at ease knowing our pets were in such good hands and will definitely be using her services again!”

About: I have had pets in my life for as long as I can remember. I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, fish, lizards, and even tarantulas! I work a typical 9-5 and can be available before going into work, after work and before bedtime. I have the ability to work from home some days when needed. I will pay attention to the details you leave for me and communicate very clearly throughout the process. I think routine is important to animals and I intend to respect that.

About: I've been loving my cat and dog for a good 15 years, and have plenty of love for your babies too! I'm comfortable administering meds and caring for older animals. From my volunteering, I can handle many temperaments. I'm confident in walking a good few miles as well. I'm currently working part-time, and its the summer so Im out of school and have plenty of time to dedicate to your babies! I'm officially only unavailable on Tuesdays from 4-6. I'm a morning bird and night owl! I have a fenced in yard with an older pup and a calm older kitty. It's just my Mom and I at home, so a calm, quiet environment. We've got a large backyard and plenty of energy to provide if needed!

About: I grew up beside a high energy husky pup who was my very best friend and the one who taught me what it means to love animals deeply. My mom modeled what it looks like to truly care for your pets as family, always prioritizing their exercise, comfort, and happiness. Now I have two pups of my own, and I finally understand what it means to devote your every day to their care. It can be stressful at times, but I wouldn’t change it for the world. Raising pets really does take a community, and I’m so grateful for the one I’ve built here in Boone. Because of it, my pups are always supported, able to socialize, and infinitely loved. I want to make sure you and your pets have that opportunity too. I work part-time at Watauga Opportunities and recently graduated from Appalachian State! I’m always looking for extra ways to move my body, so dog sitting and walking gigs are truly a luxury for me: a chance to do something I love while helping others care for their pets. I'm available most weekends and am happy to work around your needs! I have a fenced in yard for playtime at my home, either solo or with other dogs. I like to keep a consistent routine for the animals I care for, so I’ll do my best to match their usual schedule and make them feel right at home. As for dog walking, it's important that your pup gets the adequate amount of exercise for their breed- so of course I will try to match that as well.

“Caitlin did a great job with our two girls! One was recovering from a stomach surgery and Caitlin was able to administer medication and special food on last minute notice. We could tell from the pictures that she sent that our girls were comfortable and happy. Caitlin was very communicative the whole stay. We will be booking again in a few weeks! Highly recommend to anyone looking for a reliable and loving sitter.”

About: I’m a thriving college student who loves to create fun experiences with animals, with also fulfilling needs. I’m a super easy person to work with, I have a good schedule to work around. I will be home from college during thanksgiving and then from December 14-January 26th. I can only care for dogs at the owners house. I will be free most of the day each day of the week. I am willing to adjust around the owners needs and timing. I am a cleanly person, who takes pride in focusing on the detail of the care I provide. I treat others pets as I treat my own animals, with respect, attention, and love.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life, and I know how to train and love them endlessly! I will ensure that they get the best care they deserve! Most days I am done with classes by 3, and can walk your dogs however far you may want! Most weekends work for me at any time as well! I know how to gain their trust in the beginning. I’ve make sure they are comfortable with me before we continue anything. Their happiness is all that matters!
