1. Carolyn M.

“Awesome! Molly was a little rambunctious and full of Australian Shepard puppy energy but Carolyn was very patient and caring! Awesome experience from the introduction thru the first visit and overall great experience. We definitely will always request Carolyn every time we need someone to help with Molly! What a very wonderful experience!!”

“Has taken my dog out on many walks and manages to tire him out, which is extremely hard to do! Gives me advice on the latest research related to dog behavior and training. Caring, trustworthy and thoughtful!”




3. Olivia S.

“Olivia’s walked my two girls a few times and has always been great. This review is specifically to express my gratitude that she was able to fit in a walk at the last minute when my schedule suddenly changed. It was a huge relief!”


4. John-Paul R.
“John-Paul was excellent with my reactive dog. My dog has some anxiety around other dogs so walks in public can be tough so John-Paul has always been super careful about where and when he walks him. John-Paul is also always very respectful when he is in my home, he is polite and respectful to both myself and my Dog. I would recommend any dog owner to John-Paul.”

She has a deep love for animals and always goes above and beyond for any animal she is caring for.”

10. Karmyn M.
About: I always have loved pets! When I was growing up everyone around me wanted me to walk/care/ or watch their dog / pet Because they knew I would exceed their needs and more! I am also a mom of two under two so besides pets I also love kids! And all of my pets are kid and pet friendly:)! Thanks for looking at my page! Hope to see you and your furry pal soon :) I’m a very flexible individual! And I am always willing to adjust anything to fit your furry friends daily routine! Im always willing to go out of my way for any pet! :) I’m also a stay at home mom so my schedule is basically open anytime because I’m always home and available! I don’t have a fenced back yard, but I’m always monitoring any pets that are outside on leash. and it’s a very moderate household. We are usually doing something outdoorsy or going on some fun adventure! And we will always exceed your pets needs and adjust our household to just that while your pet stays. :)

12. Emily V.
About: Hi! I’m Emily. I grew up for most of my life fostering dogs with my family, we had dogs from a variety of situations and gave them love they needed. I continued dog walking and pet sitting throughout college. I have many years of experience with dogs of all sizes and temperaments. I do not currently have a dog of my own due to lack of time that a puppy needs to be properly trained, but I do live with an amazing German Shepherd. I love to hike and stay active. I am a high energy person and can keep up with dogs and would love a chance to meet yours! I have plenty of time to play with your dogs!! I am available morning/ afternoon/ and evening. As well as pretty much anytime for extended stays! I cannot currently offer in home care at my home due to leasing restrictions. I am more than happy to come to your home to take care of your pup!

14. Debbie A.
“My two dogs absolutely LOVE Debbie. Especially my little guy. He just jumps in her lap and puts his paws around her neck to hug her and give her kisses. If my old black lab could sit in her lap she would. They are always so happy to see her. Debbie has two dogs of her own who are her babies. She treats my two just as if they were her own. We have no worries when we go away knowing they are in her care.”


15. Rheya F.

16. Sarah K.

“Sarah has been such a wonderful resource for me and my dog, Macy. She walks Macy and spends time with her on days when I'm out of town. Sometimes once a day and sometimes twice a day. Macy loves her. Sarah is very communicative, trustworthy, and reliable... and a true animal lover. She even texted me because she was concerned about a squirrel that was stuck in my downspout and she wasn't able to get it out. Just this week when making plans for the next two weekends I said to her, "I'm so lucky to have you!" You will be too.”


17. Fallon M.
About: My love for animals started at an early age and then progressed when I volunteered at animal shelters! Furthering that passion I then decided to join the animal hospital of Waynesville’s team to continue my education in becoming a vet tech! I am fear free certified and use that special approach/technique when pet sitting. I work full time so my schedule varies weekly, but weekends I have the most availability! I am pretty flexible and local to the Waynesville area. I prefer not to keep any pets in my home due to my own critters. They are nervous beings so to limit their stress I will only offer services in your home!




18. Shirley T.
About: I've been a dog owner for over 20 years and have experience with all breeds and sizes. I'm an active walker and with your permission, would love to take your fur baby out and about for much needed exercise and fun. If your fur baby is the quiet type, I can accommodate that with a low stress environment too. I am available 7-days a week and will work around your schedule. My primary goal is to provide the loving care that you yourself provide for your pet. I have a large, mostly shaded and partially fenced backyard. Pups are never left outside unattended. If your pet is not up to walking level fitness, I will care for them per your instructions. Play time is available in lieu of walking if you like. If you need care for your pet while you go on your own adventure for the day where Fido is not permitted, I can provide potty, walk and exercise breaks for the time you are away. I'm a retired high school teacher and can make time for your pets seven days a week. I'm pretty flexible so working out a schedule to suit your needs is my top priority. All care and dog walking is done in your home or neighborhood. If walking is too strenuous for your pup, fun play time is offered instead.


19. Olivia G.
“Olivia Greer is a a reliable person that you can count on. She a very respectful and easygoing. She’s a quick learner and takes every job seriously and respectful.”


20. Kailey S.
“Kailey is a pleasant young lady that easily insures your trust in her to take care of your fury loved ones. In my first encounter with her, she discussed with me her former experience both schooling and work wise in veterinarian practices. Her ability to instantly bond with animals is amazing to see and really shows just how caring she is for animals. I think she is a great fur babysitter and anyone would be great full to have her services.”
