Dog Sitting in Black Mountain

“He was great did what we told him he really cares”

Gustavo G.

“We are so lucky to have met Maddy! She is fantastic, flexible, reliable and most of all great with Mo!! Took him no time to get comfortable with her and enjoys her visits! Absolutely love how she gives me a report and fun photos after her visit!”

“Chloe was awesome and very patient while building trust with Casper, who can be intimidating at first, until he learns a sitter is there to feed him. This was a long booking (10 days), and Chloe was consistent and dependable all the way through! She took care of animals and plants, so all the living things I left behind stayed healthy.”

About: My standard rates apply for most bookings, including multi-pet households. However, for longer stays (typically 7+ days) with 4 or more animals, I’m open to discussing custom pricing. I want to make sure you’re covered while keeping things fair for both of us—feel free to message me and we can talk details if it’s an extended visit! I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for over 15 years, starting in a multi-pet household and continuing as a trusted sitter for friends, family, and neighbors. I’m comfortable with pets of all sizes and temperaments, and I have experience administering medications—both oral and topical. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, mealtime, or snuggles, I adapt to each pet’s unique needs and routines. I treat every animal like my own and strive to make them feel safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away I’m currently in between jobs, so I have open availability through early August—including weekdays, weekends, and even short-notice bookings. Once my new job starts, I’ll still be available most weekday evenings and weekends unless I’m out of town. I do this because I genuinely love animals—pet sitting doesn’t feel like work to me. It’s something I truly enjoy, and it’s always rewarding to spend time with animals, care for them, and earn their trust. I’m most comfortable house sitting in your pet’s familiar environment—it’s usually less stressful for them, and I love making sure they stay relaxed and happy while you’re away. I’m great with cats and dogs alike, and I have lots of experience managing routines, giving meds, and keeping things tidy. I do have one friendly dog at home, and while I can host in emergencies, I typically prefer to care for your pets in their own space so they feel safe and settled. Your pet’s comfort and your peace of mind are always my priority.

“Malena was absolutely wonderful! Communication was easy and consistent and my dogs love her. Will definitely be booking with her again!”

About: I love keeping dogs and cats happy, safe, secure and calm. Reading body language and filling needs in a timely detailed manner is what I do. I am very reliable and will extend care if your return plans are delayed. I never let a pet go untended! Have cared for several rescue dogs, dogs of all ages, multiple dogs and cats for many years in addition to my own pets. Also have experience with some farm animals and exotics! I'd love for your pets to be happy to see me because they'll have a great time when we are together! Currently I have a very part time job leaving plenty of time for multiple walks, or care in your home for all of your pets. Pets staying in your home will always have clean fresh water, meals on time, playtime, walks and rest when they need it and occasional treats!

“Renee has watched my cats two times now. She’s really wonderful! She’s very attentive, a good communicator, and she genuinely cares about the animals. I highly recommend her!”

Melody M.

“Absolutely blown away by Marie! She updated us promptly with loads of pictures and a detailed message every day she visited. She noticed when one of our cats got a small scratch on his nose and let’s us know how he was doing! If I ever need someone to watch our animals, there’s not a doubt in my head who I’d reach out to! Thank you Marie for the phenomenal care you gave our cats!”

Marissa H.

“2nd time using and will definitely continue whenever we need help! Thank you very much- made me feel better about not being able to bring them with me”

Sheryl F.

“Jocelyn was great with Kali. A lot of walks and a lot of photos!!”

Stephen T.

“We're a repeat fan of Tiffany! Due to her always showing up in the timeframe promised and being attentive to our care list for Dalton and Lucy, we are able to enjoy our time away without worry.”

About: My name is Brady, and I’ve been taking care of dogs and kids in my community for around 4 years; I have experience with senior dogs, puppies, cats, and other smaller pets. I have clients who I’ve sat for many times over the years, for days or weeks; and I can handle some of the grosser situations I work part-time and go to school part-time, so I could spend the late evenings and nights with your pets! I also have breaks during the day where I have time to check on pets, so that they’re not alone all day. My dogs at my parents house get walked daily, and they’re checked on regularly. I try to do as many normal feeding procedures as possible.

“Kara was wonderful with my dog, Koa. She didn’t just stop by to let Koa out and feed her...she took extra time to give Koa a nice long walk and really paid attention to her unique personality. Kara clearly respected my dog's needs, making sure she was comfortable and cared for before leaving. She was also easy to communicate with, and it’s obvious she genuinely cares about the pets she looks after.”

Junebug N.

“Shakara is a wonderful sitter. She saved my butt with a last minute drop-in visit. I would definitely book with her again.”

Colleen M.

About: I enjoy creating relationships with dogs. Every dog deserves a quality life and sometimes we are too busy to give them what they deserve. I have owned dogs my whole life and am very comfortable taking them on walks and keeping them company. I will also work on leash training with your dog. I have lots of experience with rescues, and dogs of all kinds. I am comfortable with dogs of all sizes and temperaments. Overall, I can tire out your pet with long walks and play time (and cuddle time too, if needed!) I prioritize creating a trusting relationship with dogs so that not only will they be nourished physically, but also emotionally. Willing to work on tricks and training as well -- whatever is most important for you and your dog. I'm currently working part time, so I have lots of time for you and your dog! Happy to have your dog stay at my place as well. I have a fenced in yard with 2 of my own fur babies to keep yours company! They can run around together and get human attention too!

“Cera is amazing! She is kind, very responsive, and flexible. My mind was at ease knowing my cat was in the best hands while I was gone. She kept me updated with lots of adorable pictures and was happy to accommodate a couple other household tasks I asked her to do. I’m so glad to have found her and look forward to using her services in the future.”

Emily M.

“Katie gets 5 stars. She was really good at communicating and took such great care of our fur babies. We felt they were in great hands. We will definitely use her again when we will need a sitter. Thank you Katie.”

About: Have a special heart for a dogs! We get along very well and look forward to having fun with every single one. Super excited to meet new dogs and create new relationships. Its fits however it needs, I do basketball training and etc but I can always work around that. Any day of the week works. ! Take lots of care, them being happy or not really means a lot to me so I want to make the best environment possible for every dog to be themselves and have fun.

About: I never realized how much a dog could leap into your heart and nestle there forever until I met Marley, the dog my wife had when I met her! Learning with Marley led us to get precious Zara and she's got me wrapped around her little paw! Zara is about as spoiled as she can be, after all it's her world and I'm just lucky to live in it! Taking care of Marley and Zara has been a wonderful heart-warming experience and walking and running with them has helped to maintain my own fitness. Making sure they get to go out and walk motivates me to do the same for which I couldn't be more grateful! I mean, do we really take care of them or are they taking care of us!!!! I work from home and make my own schedule! I'm a writer and a podcaster so I'm always home. Zara loves to distract me for walks and jaunts outside and running around in the yard. Our yard is split by the driveway but the back half of it is fenced in behind the house. The porch is inside the fence and open to the dogs to run through as it wraps around the front of the house! I walk Zara all around the neighborhood here so have no issues walking through whatever area your home might be in. We cut through back roads and side paths and run up steps and the like all around the area.

“McKayla was very attentive to Chica and even came by before the walk to see the setup. Thanks again McKayla!”
