About: What sets me apart is the genuine love, patience, and attention I give every animal in my care. I currently have a Husky, a Pitbull, and a cat of my own, so I’m very comfortable with different breeds, personalities, and energy levels. From active dogs that love long walks and playtime to cats that need a calm and caring environment, I understand how important it is for pets to feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’ve also cared for many cats over the years and know that every pet has their own routine and unique needs. I treat every animal like family and focus on providing reliable, loving care while keeping owners updated for peace of mind. My passion for animals truly shows in the patience, care, and attention I give to every pet I meet. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because caring for animals is something I truly enjoy. I work full time, but I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets the attention, walks, playtime, and care they need throughout the week. I’m also available on weekends, which gives me even more time to focus on providing quality care and companionship. As a pet owner myself with a Husky, a Pitbull, and a cat, I’m already used to maintaining feeding schedules, exercise routines, and giving pets lots of love and attention every day. Whether your pet is energetic and playful or prefers a calm environment, I make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while you’re away. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved whether they are staying in my home or I’m caring for them in their own home. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and any special instructions from the owner. I know how important consistency is for pets, especially when their owners are away. In my home, pets will have a clean, safe, and caring environment with plenty of attention, exercise, and affection. Since I have experience with both high-energy dogs and cats, I’m comfortable handling different personalities and energy levels. In a client’s home, I make sure pets feel relaxed in their familiar environment while also keeping the home clean, secure, and well cared for. I provide updates, photos, and communication so owners can feel confident that their pets are happy and in good hands.

Robert has been taking my dog, Craig, for walks on a weekly basis for about six months now. I highly recommend him as he has been very friendly, dependable, and reliable. Robert took really good care of Craig and made sure his needs were met during each visit, especially during times when Craig wasn’t feeling well. He also took the best dog photos which were a joy to receive in the middle of a work shift. I’m very satisfied with his services overall!

About: Hi! My name is Merrily, and I am a student at UNC! I have been an animal lover my whole life, growing up with two dogs and a cat! My dogs were a sweet boxer and a lively pug, so I have experience with both big and small dogs! I especially loved to take my boxer on long walks and runs, and cuddled and played with my pug. From taking care of my dogs throughout teenage hood, I gained valuable experience with senior care, administering oral and topical medication daily, dental care, bathes, and basic grooming. I also have dog and cat sat for family friends and neighbors numerous times, with duties ranging from senior care with a lab dog, to taking care (and easing) an anxious corgi. My favorite aspect of pet-setting is of course snuggles! I want to provide affection and comfort just as pets provide me with affection and comfort! I also thoroughly enjoy playtime and walks!🩷🐾 I am a full-time college student at UNC with much free time over summer break and am in between Chapel Hill and Gastonia! I live in the heart of Chapel Hill and Gastonia and have a car, allowing for flexible and punctual care. I make sure to not only keep up with pets but with the client's home too. When caring for your furry friend and home, fulfilling your needs is my main goal!

About: I have over 12 years of experience in dog care, with a strong background in grooming, vet assisting, training, and behavioral work. I’ve completed educational courses through colleges and attended numerous seminars and certification classes to deepen my knowledge. This hands-on experience, combined with formal training, has allowed me to work effectively with dogs of all breeds and temperaments, ensuring they receive the best care and attention. Whether it's grooming, behavior modification, or general wellness, I am dedicated to providing top-quality care tailored to each dog’s unique needs. Pet care is truly the core of my daily routine. My day begins with feeding routines, followed by cleaning my dog training room and conducting morning training sessions or walks. The rest of the day is dedicated to various aspects of animal care, including grooming, training, playtime, feeding, meal prep, and administering medications when needed. I do it all to ensure the well-being of every pet I care for. On weekends, I’m usually at a dog sport trial or competition, or enjoying outdoor activities like hiking and swimming with my pets, or simply relaxing and bonding with them. Pet care is not just a job for me; it's my passion and lifestyle. I provide exceptional care for dogs, whether in my own home or a client’s, by combining my animal medical experience, grooming skills, training expertise, and dog behaviorist background. With my experience in training and behavior modification, I can address a wide range of behavioral issues, ensuring dogs are well-mannered and comfortable in their environment. I am well-versed in administering medications and handling medical needs, ensuring each dog’s health is closely monitored. My grooming experience allows me to maintain their coats, keeping them clean, comfortable, and healthy. Above all, I approach every pet with respect, recognizing their unique needs and preferences. I take pride in being responsible and reliable, offering a safe and loving environment while upholding the highest standards of care.

About: Animal enthusiast! What sets me apart is that I’m not only an experienced pet lover, but also a responsible and attentive caregiver who treats every animal like family. As a college student home for the summer, I have a flexible schedule and can provide consistent, reliable care when needed. I have hands-on experience caring for my own cat, Gus, which has taught me how to understand different personalities, routines, and needs. I’m especially patient and gentle, which helps with both energetic young pets and older pets who need a calmer, more careful approach. I also make sure to follow instructions closely, communicate clearly with owners, and provide updates so you always know your pet is safe and happy. As a college student home for the summer, I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of availability throughout the week, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends. This allows me to provide dependable care and accommodate a variety of pet care needs, whether it's drop-in visits, walks, overnight stays, or last-minute bookings. I'm committed to being reliable, responsive, and available when you need someone you can trust with your pets. Your pet's safety and comfort are always my top priorities. I take the time to learn each pet's routine, preferences, and any special care instructions to help them feel secure and stress-free. In a client's home, I respect their space while maintaining their pet's normal schedule for feeding, exercise, playtime, and companionship. I pay close attention to pets during visits and walks, keep owners updated with photos and messages, and make sure pets receive the same love, patience, and care that I give my own cat, Gus.

About: I have years of experience caring for both dogs and cats, and I genuinely enjoy the everyday rhythms of pet care—feeding, walks, playtime, litter care, and quiet companionship. I’m attentive, patient, and respectful of each pet’s unique personality, boundaries, and routines. I understand that pets can have very different needs—some are energetic and social, others are shy, sensitive, or independent. I’m calm, observant, and gentle in my approach, and I prioritize making every pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their people are away. I offer pet care during the times I’m not with my son, which means when I’m booked, your pet has my full attention. I plan my availability carefully and only accept visits I know I can show up for consistently and on time. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I’m attentive, detail-oriented, and mindful of each pet’s environment, routines, and signals. I take care to follow instructions closely, keep doors and gates secure, and maintain a calm, respectful presence in your home. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pet in someone else’s care. I treat every home with respect, communicate clearly, and approach each visit with patience and care so your pet feels safe and at ease.
