Dog Sitting Charlotte

About: I had a seventeen year old Labrador retriever and she was the world. So, I have done and seen just about everything when it comes to dogs. I just had cancer and I’m getting back into working and would love to walk (play with/feed/etc.) your dog. Whatever you need! I currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide dependable care, walks, drop-ins, and quality time for pets throughout the week. I’m available for morning, afternoon, and evening visits and enjoy giving animals lots of attention, playtime, and consistency while their owners are away. I live in a safe neighborhood in Plaza Midwood. It is a townhome community that is built for humans who happen to have dogs. Just remember to pack their leash for walks!

“Took a lot of care to make sure he was taking the best possible care of my cats and kindly watered my plants as well. Would definitely book again!”

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life. I grew up with three cats, so I’m comfortable with different personalities and energy levels, from independent and aloof to cuddly and demanding. I’ve also volunteered at several SPCA and Humane Society shelters, where I walked dogs, cleaned pens, and learned how to handle animals who are nervous, shy, or full of energy. I have a mini goldendoodle that I’ve raised and trained for the past two years, and my approach is patient but firm. Puppies and young dogs do best with clear boundaries and consistency, so I stay calm, set expectations, and reward good behavior, whether that’s house-training, leash manners, or basic commands. I’ve used the same approach with my neighbors’ dogs and my boss’s dog, which means people already trust me with their pets and their homes. I’m an active part of a large Charlotte pet community, so I’m connected to local trainers, vets, and the best parks and trails in the area. I’ll send you photos and updates during every stay, and I treat every pet like my own. Pet care is a built-in part of my day, so your pet gets real routine and attention instead of being squeezed in. Mornings start with walks and potty visits to get the day going. In the afternoons I do long, structured play sessions at my apartment’s dog park, with fetch, training practice, and time to burn off energy and socialize. On weekends I like to take dogs on outings around NoDa and Optimist Hall, which are great for socialization, new sights and smells, and some extra exercise. I’m happy to follow your pet’s usual feeding, walk, and medication schedule, and I’ll send photo updates throughout the day. I care for pets in my home, where I work from home, so your pet has company and supervision throughout the day instead of being left alone. I live in a large pet-friendly community with several fenced-in dog parks, which gives dogs a safe, secure space to run and play off-leash with structure. I keep a consistent routine with structured play sessions both at home and around the community, mixed with rest time so dogs don’t get overstimulated. I crate-train my own dog and use a “place” command for calm downtime, so I’m a great fit for owners who do the same. I’m happy to follow your crate schedule and house rules so your dog’s routine stays consistent while you’re away.

“Oriana is so sweet and patient with my puppy. She is always on time and Mila loves her. She takes her time and plays with the puppy as well as takes her out. She has been so helpful!!!”

About: I’ve had pets my whole life including dogs, cats, hamsters and turtles. I have been pet sitting in my neighborhood since I was 12. I also know how to handle aggressive dogs and nervous cats. I’m currently looking for a part time position in Charlotte and looking to spend some time caring for animals! I have full availability except for Sunday’s. Whether caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I strive to maintain their usual routines, including feeding schedules, exercise, playtime, and rest. I prioritize creating a safe, comfortable, and welcoming environment where every pet feels happy and well cared for!

“Jacqueline took great care of our cat while we were out of town. She was easy to communicate with and was always right on time with the scheduled visits. She was also quite patient with our cat who made a couple of messes and she handled the situation without any complaints. Would definitely love to book with her again!”

“Abygail followed instructions perfectly and was asking questions ahead of time to make sure she had all details so I wasn’t bothered while on vacation. My cat seemed to love her visits, overall a great experience!”

About: I've been around animals my entire life and have hands-on experience caring for dogs, cats, and small pets. Growing up, I helped care for our family dogs, a Golden Retriever named Miley, followed by Henry and a beagle terrier mix Tippy. I did feeding, walks, playtime, and daily care. I also had two guinea pigs, which taught me the importance of consistency and attention to detail when caring for pets. Over the years, I've also helped friends and family with pet sitting, feeding, walking, and checking in on their pets while they were away. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust to care for your furry family members as if they were their own. Pet care is already a natural part of my daily routine. As a cat owner, I spend time each day feeding, playing with, and caring for my cat, as well as keeping her environment clean and comfortable. I also enjoy being active and getting outside, so dog walks fit easily into my schedule. I work remotely, which gives me flexibility and allows me to provide attentive care, check-ins, walks, and companionship throughout the day. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and making sure they feel happy, safe, and loved while their owners are away. I care for every pet as if they were my own and always follow the owner's instructions and routines. In a client's home, I make sure pets stay comfortable by maintaining their normal schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, medications (if needed), and lots of attention and affection. I understand that consistency helps pets feel safe while their owners are away. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can have peace of mind. Whether a pet is energetic and playful or prefers a quieter approach, I'm happy to adapt to their individual personality and needs.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire life and have nearly 6 years of hands-on experience caring for my own dog since he was a puppy. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities and know how important it is to have someone you trust caring for your pup. I’ll treat yours with the same love, attention, and care I give my own. I’m currently in between jobs, so I have plenty of flexibility to give your pup lots of attention! I’m available for boarding, drop-ins, and dog walking 7 days a week and can easily accommodate different schedules and routines. I have a great dog park just outside my home and a friendly golden retriever to keep your pup company! Dogs can also be easily crated or gated off in my home when needed. For walks and drop-ins, I’ll follow your pup’s normal routine and any instructions you provide, and always prioritize their safety and comfort.

“Absolutely wonderful! Always goes above and beyond and extremely flexible when travel doesn’t go as planned!”

“Leanne watched our cat over thanksgiving and she was phenomenal! We had a meet and greet so she could get to know our cat and care instructions which I loved. Throughout the few days she did drop in visits we got great updates and she was very tentative to our pets needs. Would re-book again!”

Alex C.

“Hope was amazing! I booked with her only a few days before my trip, and from the jump, she was so quick with her responses. She kept me updated the whole time and was very sweet. I would definitely book her again for my next trip!”

“Katelyn saved the day helping out with my dog on short notice! She was able to quickly schedule a meet and greet, communicated well throughout the visits, and handled several special requests (like giving medicine) with ease. I was worried about leaving my dog while he had an injured paw, but she took such good care of him. It really put me at ease!! Thanks Katelyn!!”
