About: We provide dependable, loving care tailored to each pet's personality and needs. With patience, attention, and genuine compassion, we make pets feel safe, comfortable, exercised, and happy while their owners are away. We are semi-retired couple that have been in the area for over 8 years. We have plenty of time and experience to care for your pets. For hosting your pet at our home, we have an 8 year old hound dog mix that is unbelievably chill and he always loves to meet other dogs. We do have an extra large crate already if your dog requires/likes to be crated.
About: I have great attention to detail and can follow any specific needs to the letter! I can promise to keep your pet happy and healthy! I keep a pretty open schedule so I am able to work in almost any job. Whatever works best for the client is what works best for me! I have both open and fenced areas for different needs as well as more enclosed areas if that is necessary. There are a few other dogs around as well to help your pet feel welcomed!
“Katirna watched our two cats over the Christmas holidays. She made our time away stress free by keeping us informed, taking pictures and consistently being on time to care for our cats. Would definitely rebook!”
“I highly recommend Margaret as a pet sitter! She is punctual, professional, genuinely cares for your fur babies, and does the best job possible. A tree fell down on the road leading up to my house and blocked the road. Margaret did not hesitate to park her car and walk to my house . She communicated with me daily to let me know who’s my dog. was doing. I will definately use Margaret again!!”
“So thankful that Amanda was able to keep a check on our pooch while we explored the Blue Ridge area! Don't hesitate to book with her if you need some pet love for your furry friend. :)”
“Omg! Brenna was amazing! We’ve never traveled with or left our pup and were so nervous about leaving him. Brenna met us once we got in town to meet Remi and checked on him twice while we were out and about all day. We felt so comfortable after her first visit that we were able to relax and enjoy the day. We felt like she enjoyed him as much as we do. I would highly recommend Brenna to anyone who lives in or visits the Blue Ridge area. We will definitely use her again when we come back.”
“Taylor took good care of my five cats during daily drop-ins and communicated well during the booking process and when any concerns arose during the petsitting period. I'd book Taylor again!”

She has rescued and rehabilitated 3 dogs of her own, and 6 cats. She is an active volunteer at the local animal shelter, helping with adoption events and enrichment activities. Stevie has been a pet-sitter since she was 12 years old. She started with plants and birds, and now 20 years later, can work with any animal, including ones that require bottle feedings, complex medication schedules, or homestays up to 2 weeks. Farm animals too! Chickens, ducks, and goats! She was a camp counselor for 3 summers and also conducted a work exchange at a homestead farm for 1 summer.

I work remotely part-time and have a flexible schedule that can meet all of your pet's individual needs. 24/7 care and attention for your animal! I understand your home is your sanctuary, and I aim to leave it as if I was never there. All poops are bagged up and properly disposed of immediately. All water drops or pee piddles are cleaned up with pet-safe sanitation spray. The door locks are always double checked upon departure. I send pictures of your pets happy and healthy during every visit.
“Aaron was excellent. We have 2 cats, one old who is friendly, and the other ex feral who is usually terrified of strangers. There I am visiting family, and I get a video of my "feral" bumping around getting her head & butt scratched! Quite a testament to the kind of person Aaron is. The litterbox was spotless. The cat food dishes were washed and neatly stacked. We will not hesitate to use him again.”
“I have never felt more comfortable leaving my dogs! She was an angel. I have big dogs that tend to bark quite a lot and she immediately was able to calm them down and bond with them. Sent numerous photos throughout the entire time we were away and gave plenty of updates. I would not go to anybody else!!”
About: My mother and I were golden retriever breeders from 2000 to 2008. I have owned multiple dogs throughout my life. I have helped friends by sitting for them. I now have four cats. I am currently unemployed so I am fully available right now. Please reach out to me as soon as possible. Thank you so much. Peace and Love. I am very careful and loving with animals. I will write down all the instructions for every animal. I understand that every animal is different in its own special way.
“Showed up and did everything, very respectful of my space and my pets. It’s always a stress wondering if someone will be reliable especially with your pets while you’re on vacation. I’m very pleased and would definitely recommend to anyone in need of pet sitting.”
“Delaney is a true superstar! I left her with her hands full and she did everything I asked! She even took extra care with my kitten who had a health problem as well as has a great time with my pups ? 1000000% recommendation and will use her again!”

Blue Ridge pet parents share their Rover experiences
Katirna has been a true lifesaver; I cannot say enough good things about her help, dedication, and dependability . We recently had a situation with our keys 🔑 pop up and she gracefully jumped in and was able to be there for us during a time of need and vulnerability. We have three cats and her genuine care and love for our senior cat 🐈⬛, Reggie, has been so rare and priceless. Thanks again, we appreciate your time and loving care- Liz & Steve Y
We had a fantastic experience with Dewey caring for our 4 feral cats. He arrived every day as scheduled, made sure everyone was fed and had fresh water, and took the time to quietly interact with them so they could acclimate at their own pace. By the end of the stay, even our more cautious cats were noticeably more relaxed around him, which says a lot about his clam, respectful approach with animals. We were also able to observe his visits on our cameras while we were away, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. It was clear he arrived consistently, spent time with the cats rather than rushing in and out, and handled everything just the way we'd hoped and more. We would absolutely book Dewey again and highly recommend him, especially for shy or feral cats who need a patient, consistent presence.
