Cat Sitting Cornelius

About: Give your pet something to look forward to while you’re away! 🐾 I offer loving, enriching weekday dog walks and drop-in visits while you’re at work or just away for the day. I bring more than 20 years of hands-on experience through pet sitting, animal rescue, fostering, and caring for my own rescue dogs. I’ve cared for pets of all ages, from puppies and kittens to seniors. Whether your pet needs a walk, potty break, playtime, or companionship, I’ll tailor each visit to their needs and follow your care instructions closely. My goal is to become a familiar, trusted friend your pet feels comfortable with and you can count on. After every visit, you’ll receive a detailed update and photos so you can see the moments that made their day extra special. You can focus on your busy day knowing they’ve had attention, care, and a little extra love. 💕 I offer weekday drop-in visits and walks, typically between 9am-3pm. Whether your pet needs a regular midday break while you’re at work or some extra attention on a busy day, I’d love to help! I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust. I carefully follow instructions, pay close attention to your pet’s needs, and tailor visits accordingly. My top priority is to keep your pet safe, healthy, and happy.

“Karley did a wonderful job watching our 2 cats while we were gone for a week. We got daily photos and knew our cats were being well taken care of! We will definitely use her again next time we are out of town. Thanks Karley!”

About: I've had dogs my entire life and have loved caring for them at every stage. I adopted my own dog six years ago, and I also have two family dogs who I’ve helped care for over the years. While I was in college, I worked as a dog walker for three summers, so I’m comfortable caring for dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and routines. I’ve handled everything from walks and feeding to playtime, companionship, and making sure pets feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I know how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pets in someone else’s care. I’ll treat your pets like they’re my own and make sure they get the attention, care, and companionship they need while you’re away. I recently completed my master’s degree and am currently searching for my next full-time opportunity, which gives me a flexible schedule for pet care. I’m able to accommodate walks and drop-in visits throughout the week and can work with your pet’s regular routine. I’m happy to discuss specific scheduling needs to provide consistent, reliable care. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities! I take the time to understand each pet’s routine, personality, and specific needs, and I carefully follow any instructions you provide. During walks, I’m attentive to my surroundings and make sure your pet remains safe. I'll keep you updated about your pet and will reach out if anything seems unusual or if I have any questions.

“Words cannot express how wonderful Juliana is! We are beyond grateful to have her watch our precious kitty, and we will 100% have her watch our Jack Jack again.”

“Helen did a fantastic job caring for our quirky crew of pets, including administering oral meds to our grumpy orange boy in a way that didn’t stress him out. It was a huge peace of mind to know our pets were getting lots of affection and attention while we were away.”

About: I grew up on a dairy farm in north Charlotte, Being exposed to all types of animals I am an animal lover, particularly of dogs. For sixteen years I was an Anthrolopology student, studying and working with human skeletal remains. Before I left NC for grad school in 1996, I worked for five years as a kennel assistant at two local vet clinics. When I left academics in 2007 and came back to NC, I worked under a former police canine handler to become a dog trainer and have been training dogs for 18 years. In 2013, I was head instructor for his company, Highland Canine Training, School for dog trainers. The school is an intensive six month course of study, with both classroom and hands-on training time. So, with my 23 years of animal/dog experience, I know how to lift, carry, administer meds (orally and shots), clips nails, check paws, teeth and gums if there is reason to and check and clean ears. I can also recognize signs dogs display when they feel any discomfort, irritation or pain. As a trainer, I am great with dogs, I have that "auroa". With all of my years of experience, know how to read a dog's body language, how to encourage "good" behaviors, discourage "bad" behaviors and work at keeping your dog calm and myself calm in the process. particularly in the house. I've cared for and worked with alll breeds, sizes and ages of dogs. I treat your dog(s) like they're my own when I pet sit for owners. Your babies are my babies. In March of this year I left my corporate part-time job to focus solely on pet sitting and dog training. So, I am now able to spend more time at your home with your dog(s)/pet(s). When I leave your home it will be to run errands or a scheduled dog traininig evaluation or lesson. This typically means I would be away from your home for 2.5-3 hours. I may schedule two lessons for the same day, but do not schedule back to back lessons. I prefer to have several hours between lessons. When I have slow day(s) I'm typically on my computer working on drumming up dog/pet business. I provide pet sitting services in YOUR home. As far as daily care goes, I follow your daily routine: feeding, pee/pooing, leash walks, outside play time. Because I have more free time than you do, your dog and I can take longer walks or multiple walks each day, as well as have more play time outside and even inside the house. I'm a dog trainer, so inside play time is structured play time. If you have multiple dogs, I often like to spend one of one time with each dog. Even if it's 15 minutes per day. I promise that your dog(s) will get plenty of TLC. There will be plenty of head scrtaches and back/butt rubs during the day AND at night we can snuggle up on the floor, couch or bed (wherever your dog is allowed) and watch my British crime/mystery shows.

“Madison was thorough and was incredibly responsive to our requests. We are vey pleased in every regard.”

About: I grew up on a farm and learned at an early age how to take care of animals and what they can mean to us. I have experience from horses, chickens, goats, and cows to cats, dogs, guinea pigs, reptiles and livestock dogs. When a pet is present, I usually will spend more time with the animal than other people in the room! I care deeply for our furry friends, and will treat your pet like my own. My wife Alli also loves animals, and we love having dogs in our home. My wife and I currently have two senior rescue cats that we love & cherish. We love dogs and look forward to having our own one day! I own and operate a small business from home, allowing my schedule to be flexible ensuring your furry family is happy & healthy. Plenty of time to play and give any pets the attention they need. My wife also works from home and loves taking care of animals as much as I do. We have a fully fenced backyard with plenty of room for a pup to get their zoomies out and play. We have 2 cats that will stay on the second floor separated from the first floor.

About: My passion for pet care is reflected in my extensive and specialized skills. I provide personalized attention and love to each furry friend. I am skilled in training puppies, ensuring they develop good habits early on. Additionally, I have a compassionate approach to senior pet care, understanding their unique needs and offering gentle, attentive support. My commitment to maintaining a safe, happy environment for your pets truly sets me apart. Rest assured, your beloved companions will receive top-notch care and affection while you’re away. I'm currently working part-time in different schedules, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pups! Together, we’ll choose the ideal time for your pet! I provide pet sitting services exclusively at the client’s home. This ensures that pets remain comfortable in their familiar environment. Taking for a walk, close to their homes or local parks.

“Fanni was great! She went the extra mile on each of her visits and made sure to give my kittens quality time. Would highly recommend!”

About: I have extensive hands-on experience caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I have personally trained my own dogs, giving me a strong understanding of canine behavior, obedience, and positive reinforcement techniques. As an Assistant Manager at a boarding facility, I gained experience safely handling dogs, administering oral and injectable medications, monitoring pets for signs of illness or distress, and ensuring their daily care and well-being. In addition to my professional experience, I have provided reliable pet sitting services, including dog walking and overnight care for pets that require feeding, medication, companionship, and supervision while their owners are away. I am patient, dependable, and committed to providing a safe, loving, and stress-free environment for every pet in my care. I also have three dogs of my own—a German Shepherd, a Belgian Malinois/German Shepherd mix, and a Dachshund mix—which further strengthens my daily experience and passion for animal care. Pet care naturally fits into my daily routine because caring for animals is already a big part of my everyday life. With three dogs of my own, I’m used to structured schedules that include feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and plenty of love and attention. Whether I’m caring for a pet in my home or visiting them in theirs, I make sure they receive the time, exercise, companionship, and care they deserve. I plan my day around the pets in my care so they are never left without the attention they need, and I treat every animal as if they were a member of my own family. When pets stay in my home, they become part of the family. While I don’t have a fenced-in yard, I make sure every dog gets plenty of exercise through daily walks, extra potty breaks, and supervised outdoor time on a leash. I believe dogs deserve more than just being kenneled, so they spend lots of time out of their kennel enjoying playtime, attention, and affection throughout the day. I strive to keep their routine as close to home as possible, providing a safe, clean, and loving environment where they can feel comfortable, relaxed, and well cared for while you’re away

About: Hello Families! My name is Aaliyah, and I’m a 20-year-old community college student with a genuine passion for caring for children and animals. I’m transitioning from working in hospital housekeeping into providing reliable, compassionate in-home care for babies, children, dogs, and cats. I have experience caring for a variety of dogs, from playful puppies to larger breeds, including pit bulls. I’ve also provided dog-sitting services for neighbors while they were traveling, making sure their pets received plenty of attention, care, exercise, and companionship while their families were away. In addition to pet care, I have hands-on infant-care experience from caring for my nephew since birth. I have been heavily involved in his daily care, including feeding, diaper changes, soothing, keeping him on a routine, and providing constant supervision. Caring for him has helped me develop patience, attentiveness, and a strong understanding of the responsibility that comes with caring for an infant. I also want to be completely transparent with families that I have a 2-year-old toddler who would accompany me during overnight sits. He is calm, well-behaved, and very easygoing. He has his own routine and would not interfere with the care I provide to your children or pets. I would always make sure your family members, pets, home, and routines receive my full attention and respect. My goal is to give families peace of mind by treating their children and pets with the same love, patience, and attention I would give my own. I understand how important it is to have someone you can trust in your home and with the people and animals you love most. I am available 7 days a week, from mornings through overnight care, and I’m happy to work with families who need flexible scheduling. If you’re looking for someone dependable, caring, patient, and attentive, I would love the opportunity to meet your family and discuss how I can help! Warm regards, Aaliyah I am currently looking for a job in the sitting community. I am available upon request. As well as being flexible to fit what’s best. Your fur babies will love my neighborhood. Every corner you’ll see someone with their own. If you animals don’t like others that’s okay because they’re welcome in my house as if they’re my own!

“Amanda did a great job taking care of my 2 cats. She even got the extremely shy one to come out. I will definitely book again.”

“Love that she made sure to take pictures of both cats during each visit. Would definitely book with her again.”

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 6 years old. I currently have 2 dogs, Odis (2yo) and Nala (5yo). The absolute loves of my life! With Nala being epileptic, I’m always aware vigilant. I also have a 4 year old manecoon, who loves some playtime and a good nap afterwards lol I work from home every Friday and I’m available on weekdays for anyone’s last minute getaways! If any extra days are needed, I’m more than happy to change around my schedule. I have a large front yard and back yard for dogs to run and play! Both very very friendly and always looking for another buddy to play fetch with. I will always make time for your dog to run and play and get all the energy out.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs my whole life — I got my first puppy at age seven and haven’t been without a furry friend since! Over the years, I’ve gained hands-on experience with dogs of all ages, sizes, and personalities, including seniors and pups with special needs. I’m comfortable giving medication, following special routines, and providing extra patience and love when needed. My goal is always to make every dog feel safe, comfortable, and part of the family, no matter their age or needs. Your pet will be treated with the same care and attention I give my own! I work from home full-time and spend my days with my two young boys, who absolutely adore animals of all kinds. Our daily routine naturally revolves around pets — we take multiple walks throughout the day, play outside in our spacious yard, and make sure every dog gets plenty of love, exercise, and mental stimulation. Because we’re always home and active, your pup will be treated like part of the family and never be lonely. Whether it’s a quiet nap inside, fun playtime with the kids, or a stroll through the neighborhood, pets are truly woven into our everyday life. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. At my home, we have a fully fenced, secure yard with plenty of room for dogs to run, play, and explore safely under my watchful eye. Inside, pets have free roam of our spacious, tiled downstairs area, making it easy to keep everything clean, comfortable, and safe. I supervise all playtime closely to ensure everyone gets along and has fun. Whether your pup loves to play fetch in the yard, lounge inside, or get belly rubs from my kids, they’ll feel right at home — safe, loved, and part of the family every moment they’re here.

“Brandy was nothing less than amazing!! She was awesome with our 2 dogs and communicated with us each time she dropped in. She stepped in at the last minute when the boarding service fell through. We will definitely book with Brandy again!! If we could give her a higher rating, we definitely would have!”
