About: I am 24 years old and a recent graduate at Johnson and Wales University. I have been taking care of my dog India for the past 6 years I even trained her on my own. I even took her to college with me for 4 years. I also took care of a Scottish terrier when we had her when I was in high school. I currently help take care of and train my grandparents schnauzers. I have taken my dog on many walks and bath her weekly. I have experience taking care of a cat as well as horses! I am adept at dealing with dogs with separation anxiety, PTSD, and big personalities. I currently work full time and my schedule varies based on the week and holidays. I typically have off Tuesday, Sundays so I will be available all day those days. I am also usually off by 3 at work. I have a fenced in backyard but due to my dog India being so small we typically keep her on a leash when taking her outside. For my 2 lab puppies they just wander the backyard. I do request a meet and greet for most bookings for safety reasons for new clients. At your home I will ensure all instructions are followed based on the needs of your pets!

About: I have always loved and been around animals my whole life. My grandparents had a mini farm and I would take care of my brother's dog when he would have to work. This care included walking, feeding, and bathing his dog. I also use to work part-time at Adams Farm Animal Hospital in Greensboro NC as a Kennel Attendant and Veterinary Assistant. I'm currently a full-time college student so I'll have time to take care of your pup whenever I don't have classes. I also work as a Dental Assistant Monday through Friday 8am-4pm. I’m still available during the week but I’m available all day all weekend. Though I stay in an apartment there are a lot of areas for your dog and me to go on long walks. My apartment complex also has a dog park. I can also crate your dog if you would like.

She took great care of my diabetic cat, Sarah. She needs shots twice a day. Jennifer let me know what her schedule was if there were any minor conflicts where an adjustment might be needed. We have a robot litter box which, of course, malfunctioned while we were out of town. She called and FaceTime with me so we could come up with a solution. (Sometimes those litter boxes seem more trouble than they’re worth???) Came home to a clean house and a happy cat. Thanks Jennifer!!

About: I have experience working with animals of all breeds/species. I used to work for a boarding/daycare/grooming facility that was also connected to a vets office. I’m familiar with farm animals, dogs, cats, most small pets, and reptiles. I had my own horse for 17 years. Currently I have two German Shepherds who are both 4 years old- so I’m very familiar with working breeds! *I have experience with administering medications and animal first aid* I’m currently a stay at home mom and have full availability. More than likely my son will be with me for drop in visits- but for house sitting, arrangements can be made if necessary! With my two being a working breed we go on a lot of walks, and play a lot of fetch. But they also know how to be couch potatoes! Either way I can follow the lifestyle your pet is used to whether it be cuddles and lounging or going outside to play. I’m all about communication so pictures and daily check ins are something I like to provide!

About: At Central Canines, pet care is more than just a service — it’s a personalized experience built on trust, structure, and love. With years of hands-on experience in both dog training and boarding, I go beyond basic care to truly understand each dog’s personality, needs, and behavior. Whether your pup is staying overnight or working on new skills, they’ll receive consistent structure, positive reinforcement, and one-on-one attention in a safe, home-style environment — not a crowded kennel. What sets me apart is the calm, confident energy I bring to every interaction, my commitment to helping dogs thrive both mentally and physically, and the genuine relationships I build with each pet and their family. Here, every dog is treated like one of my own. Pet care is my full-time lifestyle — not just part of my day. As a professional dog trainer and full-time pet care provider, my entire routine is centered around the well-being, structure, and happiness of the dogs in my care. From early morning potty breaks and structured play sessions to training lessons and calm evening wind-downs, every part of my day is designed to meet each pup’s individual needs. This isn’t a side job or a hobby — it’s my passion and profession. Your dog becomes part of my daily rhythm, and I treat them with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. In my home, pets are cared for with a structured, safe, and loving routine that supports both their physical and mental well-being. Dogs enjoy plenty of outdoor time in a secure yard, personalized enrichment activities, and rest periods throughout the day to prevent overstimulation. For those enrolled in training, I incorporate clear, consistent guidance into daily routines to reinforce good behavior in real-life situations. Each pup gets one-on-one attention, daily check-ins, and plenty of love — all while maintaining a calm, balanced environment. Cleanliness, safety, and respect for each dog’s individual needs are always my top priorities.

About: A dog is truly Mans Best Friend. I do have a kind heart, and I love for animals. I would treat your baby as my own. I have been around animals for the most part of my life. Just this past year two my dogs (Shakee Biton age 15 and Casper Coton de Tulear age 16.5) have crossed over to the rainbow bridge. Snowball (Bichon age 17) is still with me and just loving fife. Snowball loves going for car rides to the local country store for a hotdog. She also loves her daily neighborhood walks. She has 27 sister Hens, tow Roosters and for baby chicks. I administered all oral medications for my animals. I have open availability. I just recently left my job to work for myself. With the experience and love I have for animals I feel that I am where I need to be. I have four acres that is fenced in. If I am providing services in your home I will follow what you want for the care and need of your fur baby.

About: I recently moved home from Los Angeles, where taking care of anyone’s pets is a full-time job. It was a transitioning job In LA until I found a permanent job. I feel in love with taking care of dogs (or any animals) AND this became my permanent job. I have a cat, 2 small dogs, a pit, as well as a salt water and fresh water fish. I do currently work part time, but can arrange my schedule to match yours. I would like to start pet sitting full time once again. I can care for pets in their home. Feeding, walking, playing, distributing meds, cat litter change, fish feeding..anything an animal needs I can help accommodate.

About: Hello, my name is selma and I am currently a mom to two energetic, loving, adventurous kittens. When we don’t spend most of our time traveling, we like to stay home play and watch movies. I also worked at a wildlife rehabilitation center, so i have handled wild/ exotic animals and able to administer medications if needed. Having previously worked at a pet shelter, I have extensive experience with a wide range of dogs, from small teacup breeds to large lap dogs, enabling me to confidently handle the diverse personalities and sizes of your beloved pets. Whether it's embarking on long hikes or leisurely strolls in the park, I am flexible and eager to cater to your furry companions' needs. Having recently relocated back home following my graduation, my schedule is wide open and flexible. As someone who cherishes outdoor activities and staying active, integrating pet care seamlessly into my daily routine is not just a task but a joy. My availability and adaptability ensure that your pet receives the attention, exercise, and care they deserve, all while allowing me to indulge in my love for outdoor adventures. In both my own home and my clients' homes, I prioritize creating a safe, nurturing environment for pets. This includes ensuring they have access to clean water, nutritious food, and a comfortable resting area. Depending on the specific needs of the pet and the service offered, I tailor my care routine accordingly. This can involve regular feeding schedules, administering medication if needed, engaging in playtime and exercise sessions, and providing plenty of affection and attention. Additionally, I maintain open communication with pet owners to ensure their preferences and expectations are met, guaranteeing a seamless and satisfying experience for both pets and their owners.

About: I recently moved home from Los Angeles, where taking care of anyone’s pets is a full-time job. It was a transitioning job In LA until I found a permanent job. I feel in love with taking care of dogs (or any animals) AND this became my permanent job. I have a cat, 2 small dogs, a pit, as well as a salt water and fresh water fish. I do currently work part time, but can arrange my schedule to match yours. I would like to start pet sitting full time once again. I can care for pets in their home. Feeding, walking, playing, distributing meds, cat litter change, fish feeding..anything an animal needs I can help accommodate.

About: Hello, my name is selma and I am currently a mom to two energetic, loving, adventurous kittens. When we don’t spend most of our time traveling, we like to stay home play and watch movies. I also worked at a wildlife rehabilitation center, so i have handled wild/ exotic animals and able to administer medications if needed. Having previously worked at a pet shelter, I have extensive experience with a wide range of dogs, from small teacup breeds to large lap dogs, enabling me to confidently handle the diverse personalities and sizes of your beloved pets. Whether it's embarking on long hikes or leisurely strolls in the park, I am flexible and eager to cater to your furry companions' needs. Having recently relocated back home following my graduation, my schedule is wide open and flexible. As someone who cherishes outdoor activities and staying active, integrating pet care seamlessly into my daily routine is not just a task but a joy. My availability and adaptability ensure that your pet receives the attention, exercise, and care they deserve, all while allowing me to indulge in my love for outdoor adventures. In both my own home and my clients' homes, I prioritize creating a safe, nurturing environment for pets. This includes ensuring they have access to clean water, nutritious food, and a comfortable resting area. Depending on the specific needs of the pet and the service offered, I tailor my care routine accordingly. This can involve regular feeding schedules, administering medication if needed, engaging in playtime and exercise sessions, and providing plenty of affection and attention. Additionally, I maintain open communication with pet owners to ensure their preferences and expectations are met, guaranteeing a seamless and satisfying experience for both pets and their owners.
