House Sitting Bent Creek

“Giuliana was very professional and upfront about questions and requirements. My dogs and home were very well cared for. Giuliana provided regular updates and pictures to keep us connected during the week.”

“Laura is a doglover, my boxer likes her very much. She took him to his favorite dogpark to meet his friends too. Laura is very responsible and is very friendly to work with. Thanks Laura.”

“Levon is amazing! My boy Melvin is very skittish and inclined to be fearful of new men, but Levon put him at ease right away, and Melvin was licking his face and trying to climb on him within minutes of our first meeting! I’m blown away by how Levon immediately knew exactly how to handle and communicate with Melvin—my guy is definitely a tough case with major anxiety and leash reactivity (which means 62 lbs jerking at your arm when our passing-trigger protocol fails to keep him calm), and Levon is literally the one and only person I feel comfortable handing the leash to as of right now. I was finally able to take a three-day trip without Melvin over Thanksgiving because of Levon—I hadn’t been able to do that since adopting him because he’s such a handful and has some special needs—and I was actually able to enjoy myself without worrying about Melvin! For him it was just a great visit with his buddy who took him for awesome outings to walk and hike, and quality time at the house where he received lots of love and attention. Melvin and I are so grateful to have Levon as our go-to now for when I want to schedule trips, and also as someone who can bring him out on adventures for extra exercise and stimulation!”

“Stacy was outstanding! Very good communication and took great care of Bailey. She even checked in to make sure my flight was on time, and offered to come back if I was delayed. Left the house immaculate as well.”

Paul H.

“James is a joy. He took great care of the dogs and our home. We came home to a clean and tidy home. He took care of everything we had asked him to do and would highly recommend him again”

Todd B.

“Natasha was great! She took such great care of my pets during her stay. I look forward to future bookings with her because I feel assured my animals are in great hands!”

Maddy S.

“Laina was an excellent caretaker for Cooper. Cooper has lots of anxiety and needs lots of patience which Laina was able to provide. She had great communication the whole time and made me feel comfortable Cooper was cared for. As difficult as Cooper can be to handle she was able to do it. I would happily recommend Laina to anyone who wants their dog cared for properly for their specific needs. She even got Cooper to feel comfortable enough to lick her hand which is not like him with new people. Great communication, great care, ten out of ten experience, by far the best I could’ve hired. Thank you so much Laina!”

“David stayed at my home with my three fur babies - two pupps and a kitty - for 10 days and did an amazing job! I'm a pretty anxious momma and had a bad experience last year on vacation with a pet sitter referred by a friend, so I was nervous about leaving them for an extended time again. And so I couldn't be more thrilled to have found David! He is professional, communicative, grounded, and very experienced. He was in regular communication to let me know about how things were going and sent photos of their adventures. His actions matched his words (dependable) and he kept them to a good routine while I was away. Both of my pupps have a couple different health issues currently, and I felt very confident leaving them with David, who is competent with giving all kinds of medication, and he made sure to update me on any notable changes in their behavior. I have such a sense of relief knowing we have David to rely on in the future, and I'm looking forward to the crew continuing to build their trust/relationship with him, further reducing the anxiety they - and I - experience when I go out of town. 10/10 would recommend David as a trusted caregiver to your furry family.”

Laura Ann G.

“Did a fabulous job with my nervous baby, my needy baby, and my senior baby with dementia. Super communicative and sent many pix (which helped when I missed them!).”

Elizabeth P.

“Michael took great care of our dog and cat for several days. He was very prompt with responding to messages. He also left our place neat and tidy. I would ask for him to sit again.”

Paulette D.

“Juliann watched our cat and dog while we were away for a long weekend. She did a wonderful job keeping us informed by sending photos and giving us regular updates. Highly recommend her.”

Mabelle K.

“Hannah is always very quick to respond and provides plenty of pupdates. She makes it easy to relax while on trips because we know our dogs and home are well taken care of.”

About: Hi! Thanks for finding me - out of respect for both of our time, please read my information and send me the secret word when you request your booking so I know we're starting on the same page. :) I am in my 40s and consider myself to be responsible, clean, and punctual. I always strive to leave your place as good as it was when I arrived, or better if I can! I want you to feel good coming home. I love animals and pay close attention to any pet I am caring for - I think they all have ways that they communicate their needs and desires and I pride myself on taking excellent care of all animals. I've had dogs almost my entire life and about 7 years ago became a first-time cat owner (what a treat!). I've also cared for sheep and chickens. After nearly 14 years together, my soul dog passed in April 2026 and I decided to try petsitting as a way to make some extra money and have the chance to spend time with animals. I want to be upfront with my preferences based on what I've learnt from this experience so far to help make sure we're a good fit. Here goes: - Please no requests for dogs with a history of aggression - whether it's fear-based, food-based or otherwise. I'm fine with dogs that are nervous with new people, but not if they've ever bitten or snapped at someone trying to be nice to them. I don't have experience with aggressive dogs and it's important to me that both your dog and I feel comfortable with each other. - I would prefer to keep a two dog limit. I would consider three for smaller dogs and / or seniors that are calm. I'm more than happy to work with additional cats. <3 Reach out if you want to chat about more than 2 dogs! - I would be thrilled to work with your pup to reinforce any training you are doing with them. - I am happy to walk your dog while I'm staying with them, but I am not comfortable taking them to a dog park. I took my dog to a dog park for years and 99% of the time it's great, but I would hate for anything to happen on my watch. - I am a massage therapist and see clients on Sundays, Tuesdays, and Fridays. While my schedule is dependent on client bookings, the longest I would anticipate being gone is 6 hours on those days. The rest of the time I work from home for a local non-profit, so I'll be spending that time with your pet(s). - The secret word is walkies! Thanks for reading!! I offer massage at a local wellness center on Sundays, Tuesdays, and Fridays. My schedule depends on client bookings, but I would expect to be gone no more than 6 hours at the longest on those days (it is usually more like 4 hours). Other than that, I work from home with a local non-profit and have a flexible schedule. I am happy to care for your animals in your home, following the rules you have established with them. If they need to be crated when I leave and kept off the furniture, great. If they are allowed to sleep on the couch or bed when I'm there, also great!

“Chloe did an exceptional job watching our Dane. He was dealing with an injury and needed extra attention, a cone and medication and Chloe met all of his needs. This was our first time using Rover and being able to travel with peace of mind that our boy was at home made our trip so much more enjoyable. We came home to a very happy boy and a clean house. We will for sure be using Chloe on future trips and recommend her to any of our friends that have pets.”

Cody G.

“She was so great with my dog Bruno. She is very communicative and I appreciated that a lot. I felt comfortable having her stay overnight to take care of Bruno. Highly recommend!”

“Caitlin was wonderful. She was on time for a meet and greet, and after going over everything, we booked her for a vacation coming up. At the last minute, we needed Caitlin to spend the evening with Luna because our dog was adjusting to losing her companion and changing locations, and we were going out with friends all day and then again all evening. Luna was very chill when we got home late. I look forward to a stress-free vacation knowing that Luna is in good hands with Caitlin.”

Ruth J.

“Ana did an absolutely amazing job! I will use her in the future and I would recommend her to anyone. She gave incredible updates and she totally blew me away with her communication and dedication to my animals.”

Jake G.

“Susan was great!! From our original meet and greet through her first house sitting while I was out of town. Communication was spot on, pictures of Rocky, walks even when it rained ALL DAY LONG. I recommend and have already rebooked a second house sitting.”

David J.

“Sarah took great care of our sweet pup! We felt extremely comfortable knowing Bailey was in good hands. We came home to a happy doggie and our house looked better than when we left. I highly recommend Sarah for your pet sitting needs. We will definitely ask her again.”

About: I've been a dog lover and owner for more than 25 years and have experience caring for dogs of all ages, from puppies to seniors. My first two dogs lived to be 16 years old, giving me firsthand experience with the patience, attention, and extra care senior dogs often need. Today, I share my life with Bailey Love, my 5½-year-old rescue pup and adventure buddy. We spend lots of time exploring the trails and woods around Asheville, and it's where he's happiest. Bailey is friendly, well-trained, and loves making new friends...both human and canine. Whether your dog enjoys long walks, outdoor adventures, playtime, or simply curling up for a nap, I'll make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for while you're away. I treat every dog as family and will provide regular updates and photos so you can have peace of mind knowing they're in good hands. ***For overnight stays, Bailey would be with me - he is great with cats; he has grown up in a house with 3+ cats and litters of kittens and pups.*** I own my own business and teach yoga, which gives me plenty of flexibility to care for pets throughout the day. You'll often find me on the trails with my dog, Bailey Love, exploring the woods and soaking up nature. If your dog enjoys walks, hikes, sniffing every leaf, and outdoor adventures, we'll have a wonderful time together! For pets who prefer a slower pace, I'm equally happy providing cuddles, companionship, and calm care at home. 🐾💜 Your pet's safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. If your pet stays in my home, they will be treated like family. While I do not have a fenced yard, all outdoor time is supervised. Dogs can enjoy walks in my neighborhood, adventures on local trails, or relaxing time outside on a lead if they enjoy being outdoors. When caring for pets in your home, I will treat your space with the same respect and care I give my own. I understand the trust involved in welcoming someone into your home and caring for a beloved family member. For drop-in visits, I often have the flexibility to stay a little longer when schedules allow. As a business owner, I can sometimes bring my laptop and work from your home while spending extra time with your pet, offering additional companionship, playtime, cuddles, and comfort while you're away. My goal is to help your pet feel safe, loved, and as relaxed as possible until you're back home.
