“Kylie went above and beyond for Athena our 1 yr. Golden. Many walks, her company and lovin’ made it easy for us to leave her home. She sent daily pictures and updates that were so appreciated while away. She even spent nights here. Then we came home to clean sheets and towels! What a great choice we made in Kylie!”

“Lauren communicates well and returns messages quickly. She was very flexible and accommodating. She came to my house twice and was familiar with our dogs prior to the service date. I highly recommend her.”

“Rob took very good care of our boy Toby, sent us daily updates with pictures and videos which lowered our anxiety and made our trip more enjoyable. He followed all our instructions to a "T" to keep Toby on track with our daily routine with feeding times, walks and playtime. We would recommend Rob to anyone looking for a live-in dog-sitter to care for their pet.”

“Daniel was an incredible pet sitter! He stayed at our home for a week and cared for our 2 dogs, 2 cats and the backyard chickens. He sent us daily updates and was very friendly and reliable. We are so grateful for Daniel’s help while we were away. We know who to ask next time we need a pet sitter!”

“Deb was wonderful! Our rescue dog got comfortable with her real fast and slept most of the time. The peace of mind that our separation anxiety dog had a sitter he felt safe with was phenomenal. Thank you!”

“Casandra was amazing! I asked her to pup sit last minute over the holiday and she responded promptly and took great care of my dogs! Plenty of updates and pictures while we were away.”

“Stacey was amazing with my boxer, Piper! She is so sweet, very informative, and extremely reliable. She sent regular updates and photos, which gave me total peace of mind on my long trip, and she even continued checking on Piper after the visit. It’s clear she genuinely cares about her pets, and I would absolutely book with her again!”

“Shannon did an outstanding job, housesitting and taking care of Tate. She was impressive with her quick response, then suggestted a pre-visit to our house and to meet with Tate. She was right on time for the pre visit, also on the first day with Tate, along when she left. The house was spotless when we got home, she took out the trash, I think she did some laundry as well. We will defenitley use Shannon for our future trips out of town. Thank you.”

About: I have cared for young to senior, rambunctious to frail. This includes dogs, cats and even guinea pigs. I can provide walks, feedings, meds, play and even Reiki! Past volunteer at the Brunswick County Humane Society and NMB Humane Society. I travel between Charlotte and Sunset Beach, mainly in Sunset Beach. When I am at the beach I am free to help all times and days. I believe dogs love getting out and going for walks. I offer walks for all types of doggie dispositions - with experience in scared, nervous and frail dogs.
“You can tell Melissa is a dog lover to her core, I instantly felt very comfortable leaving my fur baby with her. I knew he was in good hands. Our dog sitter fell through last minute right before a long trip over thanksgiving weekend. We put the dog in the car and began our long journey, deciding we’d try to figure it out along the way. We scrambled to find someone last minute and Melissa kindly accepted us. She was incredibly easy going, and very kind. She took great care of our dog and sent us pictures of him enjoying himself at the beach. When I picked him up, he had made many friends in just a few short days. The entire neighborhood seemed to know him so you can tell he got a lot of exercise! He even seemed disappointed that it was time to leave. A million stars for Melissa!”


About: I have previous experience working as a dog kennel attendant at Camp Bow Wow, where I was responsible for supervising groups of up to 25 dogs at a time. My responsibilities included cleaning up after the dogs, preventing altercations, playing with and exercising the dogs, and making sure each dog felt comfortable, safe, and well cared for. I closely monitored their behavior, energy levels, appetite, and overall condition to quickly recognize any signs of stress, illness, injury, or discomfort and communicate concerns when necessary. I also have two cocker spaniels at home that I frequently look after, and I regularly pet sit and dog walk for friends while at college in Columbia. I love working with dogs and would love the opportunity to continue doing so while home for the summer. I’m currently working part time, so I’m home for at least half the day and have plenty of time to give your pup attention, walks, playtime, cuddles, treats, and loving care throughout the day. Your dog will be welcomed into a calm, dog free beach house with just me and my sister, filled with beach walks, porch relaxing, poolside lounging, treats, attention, and lots of love.
“Megan did a great job watching our dog Rogan this weekend. She sent me updates and pictures. She played with him and walked him. She applied his meds for his skin outbreak as I asked. She really made me comfortable and really cared about Rogan. I highly recommend her and will definitely use her again! 5 stars for sure!”

“Kelly was wonderful. Bonnie loves her. I walk in to Kelly’s home & Bonnie is so excited to see me. But yet so excited to bring her toy to both Kelly and her husband. I enjoyed seeing that! I enjoyed seeing Kelly bend down and kiss Bonnie like I do. I am very pleased with her service and highly recommend Kelly to watch your pup as well! All I want is my baby to be treated the way I would treat her. Makes my heart happy! Our pets are our family!”

“Mae was very communicative, prompt and courteous. Did a great job taking care of our pooch. She helped us on short notice I would recommend. And we plan to use her again in the near future. Thank you Mae”
About: I’ve spent over 15 years caring for animals ranging from household pets to farm animals. I’m patient, observant, and genuinely love building trust with shy or high energy pets. Safety, routine, and communication are my priorities. I currently work part-time as a server around 25–30 hours a week, which gives me plenty of time to provide attentive, reliable care for your pets. I’m flexible with scheduling and can make sure your pets receive the attention, exercise, playtime, feeding, and affection they need throughout the day. I provide a calm, safe, and loving environment where pets feel comfortable and cared for. I closely follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, exercise needs, and routines to reduce stress. I pay attention to behavior changes, keep spaces clean and secure, and make sure every pet receives patience, affection, supervision, and personalized care while their owner is away.
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover and experienced pet sitter who truly treats every pet like family. I have three of my own—Odin, Taco, and Blue—who keep life fun with their playful, friendly personalities, so I’m very used to all kinds of energy levels and pet quirks! I’ve been pet sitting through Rover for 3 years but have hands-on experience of over 10 years caring for animals of all ages, from playful puppies and curious kittens to sweet senior pets who need a little extra TLC - including other types of pets as well! I’m comfortable giving medications, handling multiple drop-ins per day, and keeping up with your pet’s favorite routines (and favorite toys, of course!). I offer drop-in visits, walks, and house sitting, and I pride myself on consistent communication so you always feel connected and reassured while you’re away. Expect plenty of updates, photos, and peace of mind knowing your pet is in loving hands. My style is warm, patient, and playful—I love getting to know each pet’s unique personality and making them feel safe and happy. I do often have my child with me, so I do best with pets that are comfortable around kids. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry family members! Pet care fits into my every day life because I have dogs and a cat of my own. It’s before and after work and all day when necessary. My pets are able to freely roam throughout my house while I am home and away. However you keep your dog while away, I have no problem following suit!

About: What sets me apart is that I truly treat every dog like my own. I have two dogs, so I’m experienced with daily care like feeding, walking, and playtime, and I understand how important routine and attention are. I’m patient and adaptable, which helps me care for both energetic younger dogs and slower paced senior dogs. I also make sure to keep owners updated so you always feel confident your pet is in good hands Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine since I already care for my own dogs every day. I make time in the mornings and throughout the day for walks, feeding, and playtime, and I always spend quality time with them again after work. While I do work during parts of the day and evening, I plan my schedule to make sure each dog gets plenty of attention, exercise, and care. On weekends and workdays alike, I’m committed to making sure pets feel comfortable, happy, and well cared for. When caring for pets in your home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and comfortable as possible. I’ll feed them on schedule, take them for walks, play, and give plenty of attention and affection. I also make sure the home stays clean and safe, and I provide updates so you always know how your pet is doing. My goal is to make pets feel happy, secure, and loved while you’re away.
About: I am semi-retired with lifelong experience caring for dogs. I provide attentive, loving care, including walks, feeding, companionship and medication when needed. I am extremely reliable. I work part-time (two days a week - two 4 hour shifts). Therefore, I am readily available throughout the week for various pet sitting needs. I plan to take care of the pets in their homes and will make sure that the pets feel very comfortable and loved during my stay.

I cannot recommend Lauren enough! From the moment we met, I felt completely at ease leaving our dog, Picasso, in her care. We were gone for over a week and she was incredibly attentive and followed all of our instructions regarding medications, feeding and walks perfectly. It gave us so much peace of mind while we were away and when we came home we could tell our little guy was happy and had been well-cared for. We will absolutely be booking with her again!"

We are new full-time residents of the area and were a bit anxious about making new care arrangements for our pets while we travel. Kylie was recommended by family members, and we would highly recommend her as well. At our meet and greet she won over our very protective (and very stubborn) 75 lb puppy. Communication with her was excellent, before and during our trip. She eventually also made friends with our two very antisocial cats, which few people have been able to do. We felt completely at ease leaving our pets in her care and have already booked our next pet care needs with Kylie and look forward to working with her again!
