About: I’ve helped take care pets of my own, my moms, friends, & others who knew of me reliably for 16 years. I do it all I currently work part time and soon to be none so I’ll have plenty of time for your pets to be cared for and loved I will rely on how things work in your house and work based off of your pets schedule. Your pets safety is my first priority

“I forgot to book my walks for the week and I work 12 hour shifts, so it is imperative that my tiny guy ( who refuses to go inside on puppy pads) be taken out. Bridgette saved the day, even with such short notice. My dog also loves her. I definitely recommend her to anyone.”


“Tatum walked our dog for three consecutive mornings and did a wonderful job! Happy dog and happy owner! I highly recommend Tatum.”


“Chloe was great! She was able to come by just two days prior to when I needed her to walk my dog for a meet and greet. I could tell that she had great experience with dogs and felt very confident having her give my dog a potty break when I was going to be out for the day. Her Communication while I was gone was great and I would definitely use her again!”


“Maria and Luis were so kind. Great communication, very accomodating to my last-second changes, and my dogs love their new friends. I would book with them again- highly recommend Maria and Luis!”


About: YOᑌ ᕼᗩᗪ ᗰE ᗩT ᗷᗩᖇK 𐂯 I've always had a passion for working with animals, and that love has only grown over the years as I've helped family and friends with their furry friends. I was lucky enough to spend three and a half wonderful years at 4 Dogs Pet Supplies, a charming local shop in Charlotte, NC. It was such a joy to meet so many wonderful dog breeds and discover the best products and care practices for our beloved pets. I also got to team up with another small business, where I had the pleasure of caring for both dogs and cats and plants—everything from playful puppies to treasured older pets. Each day was filled with rewarding experiences in animal care! On top of that, I've volunteered at animal shelters and even participated in an amazing equine therapeutic riding program. These experiences have really deepened my commitment to animal well-being and the importance of supporting our community. It's been a truly fulfilling journey! And am very thankful for those who have trusted me with the animals. ✮ I am currently out of school for the summer and have a part-time job, which gives me plenty of availability to help care for your animals. On Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, I am available anytime after 1 PM for walks, drop-ins, or anything else you need. On Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Saturdays, I can assist at any time. Let me know how I can help! 𐂯 I always strive to treat animals, plants, and homes with the same love and care I give to my own! My goal is to provide the best care possible for my clients, so I ask plenty of questions to understand their preferences. This helps me create a safe and secure environment while building trust with both the owner and their furry friends.

About: Animals will always have a special place in my heart. They've been there for me my whole life and i appreciate the connection we share we share with our fur babies. I have life long experience with owning and caring for cats! Dogs i also love to death but i dont have as much hands on experience, so day-to-day tasks like walking or drop-ins would be a better fit! I work nights most of the week so early morning to mid afternoon, and late night (like after 10:00pm) im happy to make myself available I currently have a full time job with opposite hours - i manage a restaurant so evenings tend to be busy - but in my free day time id be happy to make friends with the cities fur babies! I have 2 full days off on sunday/mondays, Tuesday afternoons/evening are available, and before 1pm the rest of the week! I've been a cat owner all my life but i am a dog lover at heart as well! Considering I have less experience with dogs (and my current cat is the queen of the house) id be unable to provide an appropriate space to keep them here, or extended medical care. Otherwise id be more than happy to do stop-ins to feed, walk or spend some time with them! Over-nights at other places are great too, am always available to chat about specifics :)

About: I've lived with dogs my entire life, and therefore have experience with puppies, senior dogs, and every age in-between. My friends - and especially my partner - call me "the animal whisperer" because of my non-anxious presence that animals seem to notice and be drawn to. In fact, my former housemates tell me that I taught their grumpy, elderly dachshund how to love people! I enjoy playing with dogs, but am also perfectly content to lounge and cuddle with our lazier canine companions. I live in an intentional community with several other housemates, and am therefore unable to bring pets home with me. However, I am flexible when it comes to checking on your pet(s) and spending quality time with them. Considering I will be caring for your pet in your home, I welcome any preferences and suggestions you may have! I'm comfortable being with dogs on furniture, but can also crate them if that's what they're used to. Additionally, I can adapt to feeding and walking schedules.

About: I'm Recently retired, I've owned and cared for pets most of my natural life. From house training to hospice care, I've lived thru it all. Freshly retired, I've got lots of free time to care for your pets. I'm looking forward to meeting and caring for your awesomely precious pet! I have a large fenced in yard and one very friendly mini- Dachshund. I consider pets to be family members, and always treat them as such.

“Hannah walked my boy every day for 9 days when I was out of town. They walked for an hour every day and it was great! He really enjoys his long walks and Hannah made sure he had a great time. She is reliable and sent me great notes and pics every day.”


About: I have always had pets growing up from dogs of different sizes to bunnies and bird. Recently I have been taking care of my dog Dutch. He suffered from seizures all his life, so I have experience in bigger dogs and one with health issues. I have full availability. It may change due possibly picking up a part time job as I am preparing for a year long college course. Putting my dog through behavioral courses has helped me with heel training. So walking dogs of any size won't be an issue for me. Especially with it being so hot recently making sure the asphalt isn't too hot and not keeping dogs out for too long.


“Anna was able to book on fairly short notice for a holiday weekend and was absolutely amazing with my nervous dog again. I will keep reaching out for walks, no doubt!”


About: I have had animals in my house for basically my entire life. I have owned dogs as big as hounds down to kittens. I have helped potty train dogs and cats alike. I have also taken care of cats with special needs such as urinary issues and partial blindness. I have some professional experience with pet sitting as well. I am currently working as an assistant at a veterinary clinic, and have over a year of experience with animals in a clinical setting. I am a student, and I work part-time. I am off of school for the summer so unless I am at my part-time job I am available. I will make your pet my priority! I have experience crating animals, walking animals, and cleaning up indoor messes. I will take dogs on long walks and make sure they are well hydrated and cool. I have experience taking care of french bulldogs, so I know how important hydration is to the well being of a dog on a hot walk. I am also experienced in deep cleaning cat litter boxes and cleaning up accidents indoors.

Erin J.
“Erin is truly a gem! She has taken care of my dogs, Max and Archie, and I honestly couldn’t ask for anyone better. From the moment she met them, I could tell she genuinely cared—Max warmed up to her right away, and Archie, who’s usually shy, was all tail wags. Erin is not only loving and attentive with them, but she’s also super dependable and easy to communicate with. She goes above and beyond, and it’s such a relief knowing my boys are safe, happy, and loved when I’m not there. She’s just a wonderful human being all around.”

William C.
“Will is a thoughtful and honest pet sitter. I felt entirely comfortable having him stay in my home while pet-setting for Jed, my Schnoodle. Will immediately made friends with Jed by throwing his favorite ball - endlessly. Will took Jed for his daily walks, fed him, and made sure he was happy. We never worried when we were away knowing that Jed got such good care.”


Timothy G.
“Tim is truly a dog whisperer. He even got my sister's mean old dachshund to plop down at his side and offer up a few kisses. Everyone was amazed! My Rottweiler is friendly with friends and family but reactive with strange men and dogs, so I don't trust just anyone to handle him. Tim does a great job keeping him under control on their walks even with my older girl riding along in her stroller!”


Hannah H.
