House Sitting in Conover

“Carrie was attentive to the needs of my furbabies and sent me picks to cheer me up when things with my trip had gone awry. Indiana and Georgie loved her and I was comfortable leaving my puppies with Carrie, which I have been reticent to do for many years. I usually take them where ever I go in a car, but could not on a plane. She also soothed my fears about possible damage to my home during hurricane Helene. Thank you Carrie for bing so sweet to my guys.”

“Anita was awesome! She responded right away to any questions. She sent pictures and updates throughout the stay. She was 100% trustworthy and we felt very comfortable with her taking care of our pets. Thanks for everything!”

About: Hi, I’m Elle! With over 25 years of hands-on experience caring for animals big and small—from playful pups and cuddly cats to goats, peacocks, and everything in between—I offer pet care that goes far beyond the basics. Whether your furry friend needs a fresh groom, a daily walk, or overnight companionship, I provide reliable, loving service tailored to their needs. I’ve built my business on trust, patience, and a true passion for animals. Pets aren’t just clients to me—they’re family. When you leave your pet in my care, you can rest easy knowing they’re in safe, capable, and compassionate hands. Caring for animals isn’t just my job—it’s my full-time passion. Because this is my main focus, your pets receive my full attention, love, and care. You can feel confident knowing they’re in experienced, trustworthy hands.

During overnight stays, I offer baths, grooming, and cuddles—yes, they can sleep in the bed! I don’t use outdoor pens; instead, we enjoy playtime at the dog park and lots of indoor love. I care for each fur baby like they’re my own, giving them a safe, happy, and pampered stay.

About: I've trained my own dogs from the puppy stage and taken care of them in the senior stage. I love all of it. I enjoy going on walks with any of the dogs I take care of while also making sure they are having fun too. I can take care of any needs for your dogs and cats. I have been working on my "people skills" as I have Asperger's Syndrome. I'm comfortable with pets; its people that I sometimes struggle with. If given the chance; you'll see that I will take wonderful care of your beloved pets. I currently work full time Monday - Thursday but I am available Friday - Sunday. I have free time on the weekends to spend with your pets. I live in a calm neighborhood and love taking the dogs on walks around the area. I have no pets at home currently and live alone so your baby will get my undivided attention.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs the majority of my life. When I didn’t have my own, I was always volunteering to take care of my friends dogs. This was good for me while I was going to school and moving around. After separating from the Air Force, I have been blessed to have two of my own fur babies. I’m able take care of your pets before and after I go to my full time job. If you want me to take care of your pets over night, we would need to make sure they get along with my dogs. I would take care of your pets as if they where my own. I take mine on a walk three times a day. Since I don’t have a yard, I’m constantly taking my Great Pyrenees/Lab hiking 2 to 3 times a week. He is also a picky eater, so I’ve had to get creative with his food. My pets are always on a leash when I take them out.

About: I've taken care of both cats and dogs. Puppies, kittens, and senior animals are welcome. I am familiar with basic first aid and am familiar with the body language of most dogs. I do work full time during the week so weekends and non-business hours are best for me. I can easily serve the Catawba County area. I have reliable transportation. I am also available on most federal holidays. I'm happy to provide photos delivered electronically for each visit. I am clean and you can trust that your pets and welfare of your home are my top priority.

About: I have a 13 y/o fur baby (a small sized puppy), I use to take care of him, walk him (at least two hours per day), feed, shower and train him on a daily basis before I left China. I have so many patience and love while working with animals, and am very accountable for the job. I’m currently self employed, so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups! I’m available for boarding anytime, just let me know and I will be so glad to be there for you! I will make sure to check before hand with clients for all their rules (includes all the feed n walk schedules) and needs with the fur baby, and make sure to follow them all.

“Natalie was great! Very respectful of our home and took wonderful care of our border collie. Would highly recommend her if you need someone to stay at your home with your dog! Hoping to be able to book her again. Thanks again Natalie!”

“Michaela was awesome!! She spent an entire week playing with our fur babies & did an amazing job. We have two German shepherds and two cats that are old and not easy. One pup isn’t dog friendly so we are particular about who stays with them - just in case someone is out walking another dog etc. We also have a lot of construction going on and things aren’t in “normal order” she navigated so well. Our neighbors loved her. She is welcome back anytime!!! Couldn’t recommend her more!”

About: I am a very dependable person, I have a dog myself. Enjoy walking and loving on the animals. Live locate in the Hickory area, local I work part time Monday-Thursday from 5-11 and have plenty of time for your animals. Can stay at your place go back and forth. I have a dog and he is very laid back I have a fence at my Condo and walk my dog every day if not twice. The pets would be very safe where I live

About: My mom got me my first dog when I was 10 years old, and it was from then on that I promised to take care of him the best way I possibly could. I have experience administering medication (in pill form, liquid, and gel) to both dogs and cats, even when they don’t want to take it. I have also personally trained my dog to sit, lie down, high five, and on accident, I taught him to get up on his hind legs and beg with his front paws. If there is any special care that your animal needs, I would be more than happy to quickly and efficiently learn and adapt to care for your furbaby the way they deserve. I am currently job searching, so I will be free almost every weekday with exception for surprise obligations that my family often come to me with. I am not available on the weekends, including friday for various extraneous responsibilities. When I first meet an animal, I get down to their level and extend my hand just enough to offer it as an option for them to investigate, but not enough to shove it it their face. I wait until the dog or cat engages with me before I try to pet them on my own to ensure that they feel comfortable and safe. If your animal has separation anxiety, I would be more than happy to comfort them with calming words and gentle hands for pets and snuggles. I will only feed or give your animal a treat if I am told to do so or given the okay beforehand as I do not want to over feed them or give them a treat you have bought without consent.

About: Senior care and med management are two things that I am very good at! I have 6 animals of my own that I adore very much! Every day I take care of my animals (cats, and dogs) I am available whenever and wherever I am needed! Always willing to help! In home services, walking, always safety first. Always treating animals as if they were my own pet! Very good at diagnosing the animal, whether high energy, or not!
