“Jylesha took great care of my pets and my house. She was quick to respond when a sitter here backed out. After meeting her in person, it was clear she was perfect. She understood our hyper pup and bonded quickly with him.”

“Courtney was fantastic with my GSD-mix, Raina! She was great at following my instructions to the letter while going above and beyond with providing updates and doing the little things for her. On top of that, Courtney is extremely respectful and well-mannered - she left my apartment looking spot less, and left the kindest note complimenting my pup (which means more than any compliment someone could give me). Thank you Courtney!”

About: I’ve taken care of family and neighborhood cats, dogs, and bunnies since I was 10. I grew up with two cats—one indoor and one outdoor cat. I have been responsible for feeding, playing/walking, and grooming cats and dogs. I truly enjoy being around animals, they have such a sweet nurturing presence. I work a hybrid schedule in Raleigh and can be flexible. I am happy to discuss more to see what can work for our schedules. I visit clients homes (I do not board pets). When I visit a clients home I am there to take care of their pets and follow their instructions re feeding, grooming, playing/walking.

“I can’t thank him enough for the short notice and for the attention he gave to my Pups!! highly recommend I will be booking him again. My dogs were a happy healthy and well they were excited to see me as soon as I open the door they went outside to see if he was there. They keep asking me when he’s coming back. ☺️ I need to get away for the weekend to care for an elderly parent, and I had no concerns and was able to put my full attention to where I was going and where I was at and that is a type of security you don’t get a lot. When you can actually leave and relax, it means the world. Thank you and if you’re on the fence, do not hesitate to book Mr. Franklin!!!!”

About: I've been taking care of dogs for the past 11 years, and especially actively for the last two! I started fostering at that time and have fallen in love with having a house full of fluffy companions. I am familiar with dog training and body language, introducing new dogs and making a positive first impression between them, grooming and general care, administering medication, and treating every dog like the unique soul that they are. My home features a backyard with plenty of mental stimulation that every dog loves, weather permitting. My resident dog Nala is a very submissive and playful golden mix who will give your pup a warm welcome. She is excellent at respecting others' boundaries and will make them feel right at home. I work from home and can keep a close eye on your furry friend all day! I typically go for multiple walks each day as part of my daily routine, so pups can join. Alternatively they can play in the yard on a nice day. I have a fully fenced yard with plenty of stimulation including a waterfall and a wooded area where the dogs love to go for sniffaris. My yard is covered in wood chips so they can dig to their hearts' content. I have a crate that your dog can use if desired and there are also plenty of toys. My resident dog, Nala, is very friendly and would love to play with your dog if that would be fun for them. She also respects space if your dog is not interested.

Adel was clearly very well taken care of and comfortable, and I could tell she received a lot of attention and care. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter!”

About: Hi! I’m Samantha, and I’ve been a dog lover/owner my entire life. I understand that every dog has their own personality, routine, and needs. From playful puppies to sweet senior dogs, I genuinely love caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and energy levels. I work from home full-time, which gives me a very flexible schedule and allows me to provide plenty of attention throughout the day. If your dog enjoys having someone around, I can stay at your home during the day to keep them company, maintain their routine, provide potty breaks, walks, playtime, and, of course, lots of cuddles. I’m comfortable caring for puppies who need extra patience and frequent potty breaks, as well as senior dogs who may require a slower pace, extra attention, or medication. I’m also experienced with multiple-dog households and understand how to make sure each pup gets the care and attention they deserve. If your dog has specific feeding instructions, medications, or a unique routine, I’m happy to follow it closely to help them feel comfortable while you’re away. My goal is to provide dependable, loving care so you can travel with peace of mind, knowing your dog is safe, happy, and treated like one of my own. I’ll keep you updated with messages and plenty of photos, so you’ll always know how your pup is doing. I can’t wait to meet you and your furry best friend!

Ali took amazing care of our two dogs in our home for one week while we were on vacation. One of our dogs is elderly, with chronic illness that requires a lot of extra care (frequent walks, oral medication, special diet); Ali handled everything perfectly. She is incredibly conscientious, thoughtful, and responsible. She communicated perfectly with regular updates, and even left our house cleaner than she found it. We highly recommend her and would not hesitate to book with her again.

Jen is the BEST! Jen watched my sweet pittie mix, Pepper, and she was fantastic. Pepper is roughly 80 pounds and dog reactive so I always get a little nervous letting someone new watch her. However, I quickly felt very at ease over the weekend— Jen was responsive and took videos of them together. It was great knowing Jen was with Pepper, and we would love to see her again!
