“Kendall was amazing with our 2 dogs! It’s my first time using the drop ins as we normally board the girls. She made us feel at ease by sending us photos of our babies she even put our packages inside the house. Thank you so much for helping us with the girls!”

About: For over 30 years, I have taken care of and adored all manner of critters! Dogs, cats, rabbits, horses, and everything in-between! I have 15 manicured acres for your dogs to romp on, and safe, enclosed fencing. I also have air-conditioned buildings for them to relax in should they not be the adventuring sort. Happy to take on nonhousebroken critters and assist in training while they are here as well! Our farm breeds and shows ponies, and I have greatly downsized as of recently. After the passing of our matriarch papillon, I really feel the void of not having a lot of extra critters around, and would love to be able to assist in your boarding and playdate needs. I offer all kinds of long-term boarding, short-term boarding, play-dates, walking, and anything else you may need. I want to make sure your pet has the best experience possible while with us, so feel free to speak to me about your specific needs so I can accommodate you!

About: Hi! My name is Alexis, and I am a veterinarian with a specialty in internal medicine. I recently finished my residency in Florida and have a couple of months free before I start my job here. I understand how stressful it can be leaving town or even for work during the day while your pets are at home. Let me ease some of that stress for you! My schedule is currently very open, so I can be flexible to your needs! I will keep my calendar updated for the times I will be out of town. I have a small fenced in yard and a larger non-fenced front yard. I have plenty of space to feed dogs away from each other if needed and for them to get some space from each other.

“Absolutely wonderful. My two dogs love her. Sydney was great at communicating. Would definitely recommend and hire her again!”

About: I have years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages, breeds, and personalities. I take pride in being dependable, gentle, and attentive—every pet I care for is treated like family. Whether your pet needs a structured routine, extra playtime, or just a calm companion, I’ll tailor my care to their unique needs. I’m also quick to pick up on body language and behavior, making pets feel safe and understood in my care. I am currently working a full time job as a Registered Behavioral Technician from 7:30 am until 4:00pm Monday - Friday. I have open availability from 4:00pm until 11:00 pm Monday through Friday and fully available on the weekends. Your pet’s safety and comfort come first. I live in a house with two dogs and a fully fenced yard, so I require a meet-and-greet before boarding to ensure a good fit. My home is clean, supervised, and pet-friendly for safe play and rest. When caring for pets in your home, I follow your routine closely to keep things familiar and low-stress. I treat your home with respect and your pet like family—always providing reliable, loving care with regular updates.

About: I've been an animal lover for all of my life, and grew up with pets of all kinds. I have experience caring for dogs and cats of all life stages, as well as other animals like guinea pigs, chickens, and more. I currently have a very flexible schedule so I am available to give my full attention to your pets for whatever they need, be that walks, play time, baths, or just lots of cuddles! I am available 6am- 10pm most days, and available on Wednesdays and Fridays 6am- 5pm. While caring for your pet, safety is my top priority, so I like to limit interactions with other animals that I am unfamiliar with how they interact, and keep the pets environment clean and safe. Additionally, I like to maintain your pets regular routine and stay attuned to their needs, weather it be feeding, brushing, exercise, companionship, or whatever else may arise, to keep your furry friend happy and your mind at ease while you are away.

“Jennifer was amazing. She arrived each day promptly and sent many photos of our kitty. He loved her and her sweet kids. I appreciate her attention to detail and her compassion for my CleoPatrick. I will definitely use her in the future. I highly recommend her for your pet care needs.”

“I highly recommend Miranda to care for your fur babies! I had 2 cat sitters visiting at different times and when my usual cat sitter was sick Miranda took over her visits last minute. This was such a relief to have someone reliable!! I’m glad I found Miranda and will be using her services again. She was amazing with my ? and took great care of him! It’s not easy to trust someone with your pet and no regrets with Miranda. You should hire her!”

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was little. I have always had dogs in my house and outside of my house. I also have experience dog walking for others. I am a full time student, so talking about schedule will be necessary, but I want to be able to help out as much as possible! I would prefer to come to your house, as I live in an apartment. I am more than willing to do whatever is needed to take care of your fur baby

About: Farm raised & veteran first responder. I’ve worked with working, energetic, reactive, calm, and aggressive dogs. All personalities welcome, please don’t hesitate to reach out! After 10 years of being a first responder, I’ve decided to pursue my dream of working with animals full time. My passion is here. I am available 24-7 depending on my current clients. I’m a dog mom to two german shepherds, a Belgian Malinois, a Labrador, and a Dachshund Morkie cross (he’s the boss, small but mighty). I have a small farm with goats, pigs, ducks and chickens. My shepherds and Malinois have been trained for flock protection, and boy do they love their job. I’ve always had a natural instinct with animals, they are a light in my life. That brings me here today! While attending classes for dog training, I’d like to get out here and put in some good work. I have experience with other pets as well (Reptiles, cats, small mammals). I am willing to work with challenging pets, so please don’t hesitate to reach out. Let me bring you some peace of mind that your companion is in good company.

About: Did you know wolves travel anywhere from 10-30 miles a day?! I believe that a tired pup is a happy pup and I am always up for an adventure. My pet care experience includes a variety of species in a variety of environments. I am a native to Wilmington so I know the area well and can give your pup the adventure they crave if you so choose. My family has a history of working with k-9s so handling them is something that comes naturally. I am focused on gaining the respect and trust of every species I encounter. Affection, it comes in many forms and I am here to offer them all; toys, treats, belly rubs, you name it. I'm versatile, accommodating and I look forward to meeting your four legged family! I am a stay at home mom and spend my days taking care of little humans while also loving and meeting the needs of our loyal companions. If your home is fenced then we will spend time playing in the sunshine at their own pace. During the summer I will only walk your dog(s) in the morning or late afternoon. I don’t walk dogs during the peak heat of the day for their safety and mine. I am well seasoned in body language and dog psychology so you can trust that I will be in tune with their likes and dislikes. In the future I plan to offer boarding in my home but we are working on home improvements before that is possible.

About: I have a fairly large background in animal care, it has always been a passion of mine - specifically dogs & horses. I take pride in how well I care for animals. I do not have a fenced yard yet but the dogs will be strictly supervised on a leash when outside of my home. I have 1.2 acres and a great neighborhood for walks. I will gladly work on in home manners with your dog/s while in my care as I believe training should be daily and enjoyable! I work part time and also own a photography business so my schedule is pretty flexible for dog sitting. I do this primarily cause my dog loves to have a friend over and since we are out in the country there are not too many other dogs for her to play with nearby. - Dogs are ALWAYS supervised and on a leash when outside of my house. - Dogs must be up to date on all shots. - Dogs are to be crated when my direct attention is not on them or if I need to go run a quick errand. This is never for longer than 2 hours. I have two large crates. - Dogs are crated at bed time. Usually around 9pm-7am. This may vary depending on dog's usual schedule. - Dogs have daily individualized walks. - I will help instill everyday manners & any sort of training help you may need. - Of course treats & cuddles daily! - I have a TON of references, you may ask me for the list!

“DeAnna checked in on our cats while we were out of town, and she was fantastic. She was reliable, responsible and courteous. We felt very comfortable with our cats being under her care and would absolutely love to reach out to her again in the future.”
