“We booked with Dana for drop in visits for a second time. She continues to be reliable, kind, and thorough with her communication while we were away. We can tell our cat is comfortable with her, which we appreciate. Thanks Dana!”
“Charles has been amazing with our kitties. This is his second time watching them and he even got our more shy cat to come say hello! He gives good updates and sends plenty of pictures. Highly recommend!”
“Jordan did a great job! We were unable to have her over to meet the cats and show her around but she had no problem anyway! We will certainly have her back next time we need a cat sitter.”
“Ellen took such wonderful care of our cats while we were away and left such detailed and thoughtful notes that put us completely at ease being away from them. Our foster cat needs medicine twice a day and Ellen was able to give her the medicine every time with no problem. Above and beyond.”
“Lila was wonderful! We very much appreciated her care of Kobe and that she spent time getting to know him and his quirks. She took great photos and provided a comprehensive summary of her time with Kobe. Lila also looked in on our koi pond. She was so conscientious in care for our home. She is professional, extremely responsible and super friendly! Will definitely use her again!!”
“Betsy was fantastic with our cat and four chickens! We left for a few days during a heat wave and I was very anxious leaving the chickens while temps were in the high 90s. Betsy sent lots of updates and even did an additional check in when I got nervous that one of the hens might be sitting on eggs and not drinking. She was also great with our cat who takes oral medication. Everyone was happy and healthy when we got home! I wouldn’t hesitate to book her again!”
“Autumn did a fantastic job with our difficult cats! She handled their quirks and unexpected behaviors expertly and was very communicative about everything that came up throughout the week. I want to especially highlight two things: she did a great job administering medicine to our grumpy senior cat and she spent some time playing with the cats every single visit! Overall, Autumn was an excellent sitter and we would absolutely work with her again!”
“So grateful for Abby and her communication and detailed attention and care for my two cats. She was a natural with them from the beginning and was able to easily administer a med while I was away. I so appreciated she made the time to stop by before I left to meet me and my cats so she could know all the ins and outs. I plan to book with her again!”
“Samantha looked after my 2 cats for a week while I was away - her cute and complete report cards really helped me feel comfortable that they were OK while I was gone. One of the cats is really not a people person but it was comfortable around her, did not hide and was OK with being pet. 100% recommended!”
About: I have a huge place for animals in my heart. I have been a cat mom for 13 years and have been the go-to dog sitter for friends and family since high school. I even had the privilege recently of driving my best friend’s Frenchies across the country as she was relocated in the military! I have had many dogs growing up that range in size from a lab, a Rottweiler and even an English mastiff. I love dogs of all breeds and think being around animals is so good for mental health. I am so excited for the opportunity to spend time with yours in between my classes. As a full time graduate student, I will be spending a significant amount of my time on the UNC campus. I am hoping to find homes in the area with animals that need to be let outside or walked while their parents are working. I am very respectful of other people’s privacy and property. At your home, I will be there to do a job and I take that seriously. I will give your pets love and attention, as well as do what I can to protect their safety.

“Cassie was wonderful. Our cats were comfortable and happy with her, and her communications with us were on point. She took good care of our house and let us know when she had questions or concerns. We are especially grateful that she was cheerful and flexible when our flight got cancelled and we were delayed getting back. She really came through for us! We will book with her again.”
“Merrily took care of my dog during the weekend, she was great at communication, sending a lot of updates and pics with my dog, who looked so happy in her company! 10/10 would recommend her services and I definitely book with her again in the future”
“Nora took such good care of our fur babies while we went home for the holidays. She was so responsive and took the cutest photos of our kitties. She was very thorough and made sure they were comfortable and happy. We would love to have Nora watch our cats again!”
“Kristen took such attentive care of my older cat, including giving her all her pills and regularly reassuring me that everything was going just fine so I could relax and enjoy my time away. I have already booked Kristen again for my next trip out of town in a couple months. Excellent pet sitter!”
“Hannah provided OUTSTANDING communication and service while watching my cat. She truly went above and beyond my expectations with both her care of my pet and daily reviews. HIGHLY recommend her to anyone needing assistance with watching their pet.”
