“Victoria is the BEST!!! I've been using her services for the past couple of months. A few months ago, I noticed that my dog often appeared sad, so I reached out to Victoria for visits while I am at work. Victoria goes twice a week to take my dog out while I am at work. She is so good with my dog (who can be a little difficult) and my dog loves her! She is the best and I cannot be thankful enough for her services! :)”

About: I have taken care of many different types of breeds and personalities. From the couch potato to the hyper track star. I will make sure your fur baby is taken care of. I have a certificate in Pet First Aid from the Red Cross. I am currently taking care of pets part time. I am mostly open on the weekends (Friday evenings, all day Saturday, all day Sunday and all day Monday). I have training in being proactive when identifying potential safety issues. I have experience in law enforcement and in pet saftey. I know communication is huge when making you and your fur baby feel safe.

About: I’m a reliable, loving pet caregiver with a genuine passion for animals of all kinds. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, feeding, or drop ins I treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. I understand that each animal has their own unique personality, and I take the time to ensure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away. Clean, caring, and attentive — you can count on me to follow your pet’s routine and keep you updated with photos and messages. I’ve cared for dogs, cats, and even small animals, and I’m happy to accommodate special needs or instructions As a dedicated stay-at-home mom, I’m home throughout the day and have a highly flexible schedule. I’m available for mornings and afternoons, including last-minute requests, drop-in visits, and daily walks. My young children accompany me during pet care visits, so your pet will get extra attention, love, and gentle socialization in a family-friendly environment. I treat your space with respect and maintain your pet’s regular routine to help them feel comfortable while you’re away. I make sure they get their usual food, walks, playtime, and rest, just the way they’re used to. I also keep you updated with photos and messages so you can feel confident they’re happy and well cared for.

About: I have 10 years of professional dog boarding and pet care experience with glowing testimonials from the families I’ve worked with ❤️ I’ve been caring for animals my entire life! My family fostered all manner of animal throughout my childhood and I spent the last 4 years boarding dogs in Cincinnati, OH. Now that I’m back in Asheville (my heart home) I wanted to bring my amazing pet services with me! I have a wonderful set up for both cats and dogs. The indoors are arranged so dogs can move freely throughout the house, lots of doggy beds and multiple kennels that are cleaned between each stay. There is a separate room for the kitties to play and be at home in if they don’t get along with dogs. There is a huge, fenced in outdoor area for puppy free play and they get lots of play and training inside as well. So, even in inclement weather your pups will be active! We do at least 2 walks per day in addition to free access to the large outdoor area. I send photos with updates every morning and evening, and I’m available all hours for check ins at your leisure. I have handled every manner of pet emergency one can imagine, so your babies are in very good hands. I can provide food, treats and other pet care products at your request. If you’re interested in grooming and bathing I’m happy to add those services at no additional cost! I want all the pets I see to leave happier than they arrived, and for all pet owners I serve to know their pets are well cared for and attended to. If you have questions or concerns please reach out to me directly via message. There’s very little we can’t solve together! I do this full time, so all my hours go to your pups! I don’t often leave home, but when I do the pets go into their respective areas (kennels if applicable) and there are puppy cams around the house to make sure they are safe and well. I would never be gone from home for more than 1-2 hours but you can rest assured that I’ll usually be home the entire time. Pets in my home only receive love. I do not scold, and if behavior needs to be prevented I use a firm tone and/or time outs to manage. I do not believe punishing animals helps them learn, and I always use positive reinforcement to correct behavior. This would be something I communicate with you ahead of time, to ensure all the commands and care are consistent with what they get at home. They are allowed on all the furniture unless you inform me they are trained not to, in which case I would abide by their training. I would never, ever leave a pet outside unattended or without access to snacks and toys. The home is a veritable puppy and kitty heaven!

About: I have been around dogs my whole life from time they were puppy's to time they hit adult hood. I have taken cared of cattle, cats, dogs, and horses over the years growing up. I do own a horse and a dog right now that is well taken cared of. Been around all certain type of horses, cattle, and dog breeds enough to get along with most animals. Have taken an animal science course back in college at Lamar community college part time. I understand how well to care for different breeds and keep an handle on to control each different breed type as well as in feeding times and filling up water bowls or water traffs for horses and cattle. I have taken cares of animals rather personal or friends or family's pets or livestock over 10 years.

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and have always been trusted to take care of friends/family’s pets. I always care for them like I would my own. I’m in between jobs right now so I am available any time and any week. I can travel to you or pick up your pet if needed. I pay close attention to pets' routine, needs and environment. I follow instructions on what their food needs are and make sure daily exercise is not left out. I am very respectful of others homes and would clean any meses that happen. I also take notes on vet/medical needs and phone numbers and easily accessible.

“Tori did a great job taking care if my kitty while I was gone. She came to my house once a day to give her blood pressure medicine then sent me a picture & an update. I would recommend her to anyone needing a pet sitter.”


“Autumn has been an absolute blessing! In fact I think our dogs like her better than my husband and I. She is prompt, reliable, trustworthy and will updates us about the puppies, which is always comforting. I don’t know what we would do without her!”

About: I have three cute pups who are shy but just need to warm up and they do, really fast. I grew up with a few dogs, and got one of my own once I felt I was ready for puppy commitment. I am that person meeting the animals at social gatherings, and forgetting about the humans. One of my dogs has pretty bad anxiety so I know how to be calm and loving to a dog who needs a little more attention. I worked in animal welfare, rescuing dogs and cats from all over the world for a few years, and this app has given me a new way to meet pets, I wouldn’t have had the opportunity to otherwise.

During her time here, she provided exceptional care, ensuring that my fur baby received plenty of exercise, playtime, and cuddles.
