“Alishia is a great neighbor and dog sitter! I highly recommend. She was communicative the whole trip and made sure my dog was fed, had time to potty, and even some cuddles. I felt my dog and home was safe with her visiting when I needed her. Even when my dog fell sick, she went the extra mile to keep me posted and checking on her. I’m glad she is local to Chapel Hill and will be using her services again.”
“Madison exceeded all expectations! Our regular pet sitter had an unexpected emergency right before we left on a two week trip, the longest we’ve ever been away from our two fur babies. Needless to say we were devastated and left scrambling to find a reliable and trustworthy substitution. Madison did a meet and greet beforehand to explain her qualifications, answered any questions we had, and made sure to thoroughly understand the expectations of what we needed done to ensure peace of mind for us. She provided extensive details for us everyday and sent cute pictures of our animals so we could get a glimpse of how they were faring while we were away. She really takes the time to get to know the animals and it is reflected in her outstanding work ethic how much she truly cares. I would recommend her to anyone and everyone needing a sitter. Thank you Madison for providing excellent care for our babies, you made our vacation that much more enjoyable knowing there was once less thing to worry about back home!”


“Jill is wonderful, thoughtful, and attentive. She is incredibly detail oriented and knows when to call. I am so happy we found her and look forward to working with her again. Thank you Jill.”

“I am so grateful for Vickie! She was able to check on my cat several times with basically no notice when my original sitter had an emergency. She was communicative and thorough and sent me photos during each visit. I felt assured that Pumpkin was well taken care of.”

If I’m coming to your home, I will provide the utmost care and safety as if it was my own home and my own pet .
“Katie was marvelous with Princess and Gizmo! She truly understands the boxer breed because she is also a boxer mom. When we got home last night from the Green Day we could tell they had a great time with Katie! In a month and a half we will be going to Orlando, FL for a vacation and Katie will be called upon to care for Princess and Gizmo again ! Thank you Katie for taking such wonderful care of our fur-babies!”
About: I've had pets my whole life. I also worked at a dog groomers, where I learned how to care for others' dogs aside from my own. I am patient and really love animals! I have my own business where I mostly work from home so my schedule is generally up to me. I also have a dog so I have time set aside for taking care of him. I have a backyard and a friendly, calm dog to keep them company. We can also keep them in separate rooms if needed. I can crate your dog if they feel safer there.
About: Hey everyone! My name is Gracie and I live in Lewisburg, TN. I have 7 years professional experience caring for dogs/cats as a vet tech. I have trained several puppies in basic obedience as well as been trained in some Schutzhund protective training. My personal experience largely outweighs my professional as I’ve never had any less then 4 pets of my own throughout my life. I have grown up with all sorts of animals, ranging from big to small and farm to exotic. I love all breeds and ages as each of them have their own unique traits. I do not shy away from working with special needs or senior dogs. In 2023 I moved on from working as a veterinary technician/ practice manager to pursue other endeavors. I am compassionate, flexible, and hard working. I hope to be considered for your fur babies’ caregiver. Thank you! Your pets care is upmost important. They will be cared for the same way I would want mine to be. I am able to tend to potty breaks and any other needs during the day/night. A specific plan can be made for each pet, as each pets needs are different. From leash walking, free play with or without a fence, I am very well versed in all pet needs. Your fur baby will be able to stay in his/her daily routine while under my watch.

“Cassy is the ABSOLUTE best! I can’t say enough good things about her. We have hired her to dog sit and do drop in visits and have been so blessed to have her look after our animals. She always checks in and takes pictures of our dogs and sends them to us when we’re away. She is an excellent communicator and our dogs LOVE her! I would recommend her to anyone looking for help with their animals.”

About: I have been a dog and cat sitter for years now and made it my full time job a little over 2 years ago. I have owned many dogs and cats. I love to spoil and love on every fur baby I come into contact with! I am good with all sorts of breeds and reliable. I am here to make your pup feel at home and treat them like my own! I am currently a full time student studying business with a minor in criminal justice, pet sitting is also my full time job! I eventually want to open my own boarding place and hope to have your business come with me! I have a big backyard with plenty of room to run and play fetch! At night (depending on your pups usual routine) we will cuddle up and watch a movie! during summer the creek at the back of our property is very popular to the pups and they love playing in it, we also have a kiddy pool made for the pups so they can cool off or splash in on a warm summer day! If your pup enjoys car rides (what fur baby doesnt?) they will tag along with us for sonic runs and other errands! Your pups will always be supervised and cared for! I am also open to bathing and other care services for your pets. Your pups will immediately become like my own as soon as they are under my supervision!
“Elizabeth and Michael did a really good job with our dog. He is going on 15 years old now and requires extra care on walks. They took their time with him to make sure he was getting around ok and always checked in on him on time. We could relax on vacation knowing that he was in good hands with them.”
About: We love being around dogs of all kinds and provide a great vacation for them while you are away. They will want to come back and play as much as you will let them! Rain or shine, hot or cold, your fur baby will enjoy being part of the farm pack and make new lifelong friends. They will play until tired and sleep well at night. There is room for them to play hard or relax in the shade and take it easy. (Disclaimer - this is fenced in farm land. They are always supervised, but many dogs LOVE to run and play IN the mud...it is their favorite thing in the world. IF it rains a lot, no amount of rinsing off and towels can keep them clean. If you need a freshly groomed dog upon pick up, this may not be the place for you?) If they are driven by scent, they will enjoy all of the smells that their noses can take in. This is the favorite hobby of our personal dog. Take your vacation and rest assured that your baby will have the time of their life! We are always around and there to attend to your animals while on vacation or for drop-ins. If you need us to pick up or drop off at your home please let us know and we can contact you about that as well to make everything as easy as possible for you. Both of us currently work in an at home environment. Because of this, We are able to be available to your pups throughout the day. Also because of work and family, we try to limit drop offs and pick ups to the following times. If these do not work for you, contact us and we can work out special arrangements. Drop offs and pick ups: 7:30 am-10 am AND 4:30 pm - 8:00 pm (we are also willing to drop off or pick up your dogs to make this as easy and seamless as possible for you as you are trying to get out of town, etc.) I have 12 acres with multiple areas for dogs to play and explore. At times we will separate large and small dogs to make everyone more comfortable to have a wonderful time. If you have ANY special considerations that we should make, please let us know and we will work to accommodate. We both have flexible work schedules. Michael works from home, and Sarah works part time. Between us and our teenagers, there is always someone here with your pups. We do ask that you try to drop-off and pick-up between the hours of 8am - 7pm to ensure all dogs gets settled in easily. We have a fenced yard for free play. We are surrounded by goats, horses, and cows which the dogs love to watch and bark at. Dogs are always supervised when outside, they get at least 3 play times outside per day, and they are inside the rest of the time.
About: There has never been a time in my life where I lived pet free. Dogs (all sizes and breeds), cats, horses, ferrets, and large birds. Sometimes all at the same time. Training is a must for these types of situations. I am available to help as needed. We have recently rearranged our lifestyle to spend more time at home for both, our human and pet family. This includes your pet as they are now part of our family. Large fenced in back yard and 7 acres to walk together. Offering indoor play area, kennel free stay, raised dog beds, chairs and doggie couches.
About: I have taken care of many dogs since I was a sophomore in high school, graduated in 2019. I volunteered and then became a worker at a groomer near me. Loved my job, and have cared for many animals since. Currently do not have a job, so I have a free schedule and nothing but love to give to the fur babies, including cats of course. I am very respectful to others homes and belongings. I only want to care for the animals, very trustworthy. If staying at my home, I am sure to take them out every hour, hour in a half unless given specific details. They have their free roam, I also have a pretty decent sized screen in back porch that they can run around a little in.

About: I’ve raised dogs my entire life and cannot think of a better companion. I’m a former dog trainer, former volunteer at a veterinary clinic, and I’ve been pet sitting dogs, cats, livestock, chickens, reptiles, birds, and more for over 15 years. I worked and managed a PetSmart Pet Care department for 7 years. I currently work a M-F job remotely. I will watch all breeds, no exclusions. If you have a puppy, I’ll be happy to keep up with your training commands and routines. I believe that you should feel no stress about leaving your pet behind. I’ll even send you photos and videos! I’m available for boarding every day of the week. I work remotely from home Monday thru Friday. For drop-in appts, I’m only available Saturdays and Sundays. For boarding clients, I have a brand new, secure fenced in yard. Our neighborhood is quiet and perfect for walks. For drop-in clients, I can only visit Saturdays and Sundays due to my work schedule.
“Sarah was fantastic with our two pups! Diligent with sending us pictures and her notes. Our dogs are happy and well taken care of and you can’t ask any more than that! Thanks Sarah!!!”


About: I have previously worked as a puppy raiser for GDF for 4 years. I have raised a golden retriever, Danny, from age 8 weeks - 1.5 years old, and he was in training to be a service dog in Florida. He was in Florida for about 8 months. He was eventually "career-changed" to a couch potato, so I got to adopt my perfect boy. I have also raised Tweety, who went on to be a successful breeder for the Guide Dog Foundation. I am so passionate about puppies and I love to love dogs. I graduated from UGA in 2018 and am a real estate agent with a passion for people and pups! I can work with all dogs & am pretty good at obedience training too! I am extremely patient when working with pups and I love older doggies as well. I work from home as a real estate agent and have extremely flexible hours so I am able to take care of your pup just about whenever & wherever! I have a fenced in yard and a friendly older golden retriever who loves to meet new friends! We go on hikes at the State Park and also walk around our neighborhood as well
