About: Hi welcome to my profile my name is Aisha I am a fulltime pet sitter i’ve been a pet sitter since I was basically 15 years old and since I work from home I have great flexibility and availability offering a safe, fun and caring environment, I live in loft apartments pretty big building and big outside areas for ideal walks and I can definitely offer your pets my full undivided attention. I am not the type of sitter to not give them attention and not be home all day or leave them in cages all day. I love animals so I’m definitely able to give them my full attention and able to play with them and care for them the way it’s needed I also do offer add-on services like baths and basic pet grooming, I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 15 from big to little sizes I’ve also had a variety of pets I’ve had dogs, fish, and birds so I can say when it comes to animals I’m pretty experienced and responsible with them over the years I also love animals and hope to be a vet one day so this just isn’t a job it makes me happy to do what I love which is this. When your pets are with me I will treat them with care like their family. I’m young so I’m very able to walk and run and play with your dog as much as possible, i know every dog is different and requires different attention which I’m okay and skilled to handle with I’m currently in school, but I am doing online so I have a lot of free time flexibility and I am available any day throughout any time I live in a loft apartments but my neighbourhood is very pet friendly there’s plenty of space to walk your dogs and for them be, I also have a small dog of my own so your pet will definitely be able to make a little friend. I will always be able to keep a eye on your pet at all times and keep them always from any danger possible. I’m okay with providing any extra details with you to ensure your pet is being properly taken care of and to make you feel comfortable

I recently hired Lauren to care for my two parrots and cat while we were away for the holiday, and I was very impressed with her service. She communicated regularly and ensured my pets were well taken care of throughout our absence. When a temperature alarm went off in my home, she responded immediately and handled the situation with great professionalism. My pets were happy and healthy upon my return, and the house was just as I left it. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and responsive pet sitter.

Melissa was a great dog sitter! I didn’t have to give her many instructions, yet she went above and beyond to care for my dog. She communicated well and sent many pictures. I would recommend her to anyone!

We were so lucky to find Sara! She was able to drop in on our cats on short notice on a holiday weekend. I trust her completely with my cats and my home. She even went above and beyond and cleaned up a mess they made. I’m actually going to book her again as soon as I finish this review. Thank you!!

About: Hi, my name is Taylor! I am a recent high school graduate who will be attending NC State University in the fall to study Animal Science. I have past experience with pet sitting, often for longer than a week. Along with that, I have over a year of experience shadowing at a local veterinary hospital. I also have experience taking care of my own fur babies at home! I would love to spread love and care to your pets if you’ll have me. Please reach out if interested! I currently work part-time at Chick-fil-a, so I have plenty of time to hang out with your fur babies! I have a flexible and light schedule which allows me to dedicate a lot of my time to the animals around me. When at a client’s home I love to curl up with a good book and a sweet cat. I also enjoy taking pups on walks and playing fetch or tug with them. I am always down to cuddle with any furry friend.

About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life and have 3 years of experience helping care for pets for family and friends. I have a very spoiled dog myself, so I understand how important it is to make pets feel comfortable, safe, and loved while their owners are away. I’m reliable with feeding, walks, playtime, and giving pets lots of attention. Weekday mornings fit best with my schedule with also managing another part-time job, and I’m happy to help with walks, feeding, playtime, or just keeping pets company I’ve always been really attached to animals, especially because my own dog is basically treated like a baby at home. I know every pet has their own personality and routine, and I’ll make sure they feel comfortable, cared for, and get plenty of attention while you’re away.

About: I have years of experience caring for both dogs and cats, and I genuinely enjoy the everyday rhythms of pet care—feeding, walks, playtime, litter care, and quiet companionship. I’m attentive, patient, and respectful of each pet’s unique personality, boundaries, and routines. I understand that pets can have very different needs—some are energetic and social, others are shy, sensitive, or independent. I’m calm, observant, and gentle in my approach, and I prioritize making every pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their people are away. I offer pet care during the times I’m not with my son, which means when I’m booked, your pet has my full attention. I plan my availability carefully and only accept visits I know I can show up for consistently and on time. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’m attentive, detail-oriented, and mindful of each pet’s environment, routines, and signals. I take care to follow instructions closely, keep doors and gates secure, and maintain a calm, respectful presence in your home. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care. I treat every home with respect, communicate clearly, and approach each visit with patience and care so your pet feels safe and at ease.

About: Animal enthusiast! What sets me apart is that I’m not only an experienced pet lover, but also a responsible and attentive caregiver who treats every animal like family. As a college student home for the summer, I have a flexible schedule and can provide consistent, reliable care when needed. I have hands-on experience caring for my own cat, Gus, which has taught me how to understand different personalities, routines, and needs. I’m especially patient and gentle, which helps with both energetic young pets and older pets who need a calmer, more careful approach. I also make sure to follow instructions closely, communicate clearly with owners, and provide updates so you always know your pet is safe and happy. As a college student home for the summer, I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of availability throughout the week, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends. This allows me to provide dependable care and accommodate a variety of pet care needs, whether it's drop-in visits, walks, overnight stays, or last-minute bookings. I'm committed to being reliable, responsive, and available when you need someone you can trust with your pets. Your pet's safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet's routine, preferences, and any special care instructions to help them feel secure and stress-free. In a client's home, I respect their space while maintaining their pet's normal schedule for feeding, exercise, playtime, and companionship. I pay close attention to pets during visits and walks, keep owners updated with photos and messages, and make sure pets receive the same love, patience, and care that I give my own cat, Gus.

Amy took excellent care of our 3 cats while we were on vacation. She also noticed that the temperature had dropped in our house due to a decrease in the outside temperature and she put the heat on for our cats. We also appreciated the daily photos of our kitties! We highly recommend Amy and will be booking her again the next time we go on vacation.
