Pet Sitting Barclay Downs

About: Growing up in a dog-centric household, I learned from a young age how to work with puppies and dogs of all ages. I’ve house-sat and watched family and friend’s dogs consistently over the last 10 years, all while doing volunteer work at the local animal shelter. Many times I’ve had dog owners tell me that their dogs don’t usually like strangers, but they feel at-ease with me. I have a lot of experience reading and understanding canine body language, so your pets are in good hands. I currently work full-time, but am able to work remotely when needed. Currently, Thursday-Sundays would work best for me if you need any housesitting or animal care services including walking or bathroom, but have my calendar open for other days/times. I’m very attentive to animal safety when dealing with pets. Unless otherwise instructed, I will keep pets leashed and away from other dogs. Additionally, I will strictly adhere to any nutritional requirements and understand your pet’s current dietary or medicinal needs before working with your pet. Pets have always been family to me, and the treatment of your dog will be held to my same standard.

“Weiying Is amazing! I just moved and it’s nerve wracking to leave your pets with someone, especially, in a new city. She has great communication, is very professional and flexible and took great care of my kitties. They loved her. I will definitely book again.”

“Lexie is always attentive, so caring, patient and thoughtful with my anti-social cat. She keeps me in the loop and provides great photos and updates. She's definitely my go to! Thanks for reassuring us Phoebes in good hands 🖤”

“Mackenzie did a fantastic job taking care of my dog! Not only was she a great communicator, sending pictures and updates, but she went above and beyond in her care for my dog Nova. I was able to trust her completely and had no worries while I was away. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter for their pets and I personally plan to use her again!!”

“Amber was great with my dogs! Very communicative and it was my first time getting a dog walker so I was definitely nervous. But she was wonderful! Will definitely be getting her again.”

Sara H.

“Ziyi is absolutely amazing! She takes care of our two corgis during the week while we’re in the office, and they absolutely adore her. She spends so much time with them during each visit and genuinely cares for them as if they were her own. From the very beginning, she was incredibly thorough during our meet-and-greet, which gave us complete confidence that she was the perfect fit for our pups. She is reliable, caring, communicative, and someone we fully trust with our dogs and our home. We are so grateful for everything she does and highly recommend her to anyone looking for exceptional pet care. Thank you for everything, Ziyi! ❤️🐾”

About: I’m experienced with different dog breeds, and ages. I’m also a foster for Mecklenburg County Animal Care & Control and Union County Humane Society. Have fostered week old puppies to senior dogs and cats! I am currently in between jobs so I can work around any schedule! I am definitely a morning person but don’t have any preference time wise. I have been a foster for different shelters where I have learned how to take care of different breeds and work with their needs! I love going on walks and having play time with pets

About: Hi there! :) I have been pet sitting & dog walking since I was 10 years old. I have worked with puppies to elderly dogs as well as kittens and adult cats. I also have experience giving dogs & cats medication. As an animal lover I have had many dogs and cats of my own! My friends, family, and neighbors have consistently trusted me with taking care of their pets for over 15 years. I would love the opportunity to take care of your babies while you’re away making sure they are happy, healthy, and well taken care of! My boyfriend and I, along with our golden retriever Arlo, live in a two story townhouse with a backyard and area for the pups to run around and play! We love to go to dog bars and dog parks and would love to bring your dog along with us if you’d like. I am currently in between jobs and have lots of time to take care of your pets making sure they are happy and well taken care of! I can easily take care of your pet in my home or your home making sure they are safe and secure and trust me in their environment!

“Sam does so well with Oliver every time she visits him! Oliver loves her hanging out! We would recommend Sam to anyone! She is patient and so sweet to our baby!”

“Amazing job! Thank you for all the help. Truly appreciate it. Skye enjoyed your company.”

Felicia M.

“Due to my job she wasn’t able to meet my dogs prior and they were comfortable enough with her to go outside with her. (My older dog can be wary of new people sometimes)”

Esontay M.

“Savannah was great with Akela! She kept me well informed on everything going on while I was not home. I returned home to a very happy dog! Savannah is at the top of my list for dog sitters!!”

Brianna L.

“Megan is a WONDERFUL caretaker! She was very diligent about setting up a time to meet my cat, learn about his space and routine and what he likes to do. She made sure to give him space when he needed but was creative when he wasn’t eating his food. She always took a good selection of photos and left a super descriptive message. I definitely recommend her services!”

Kjerstin L.

“We have worked with Melissa several times now and she’s the best. Very conscientious and takes good take of our kitties. She’s very flexible and has been able to handle unforeseen changes in our schedule. Thank you so much!”

Jackie S.

“A+ for Annmarie. She is a great communicator and put up with my embarrassingly shy cats. No complaints here, everything went as planned. My cats were well taken care of and entertained when they actually ventured out from under the bed. Thanks again!”

Suzanne J.

“Megan is the best! I have a nervous Chihuahua rescue and she was so patient and attentive to his needs. She is reliable and such a joy! Couldn’t recommend her more :)”
