Cheryl is the only person that I trust with my dogs when I'm away. Both dogs are very high energy and I can rest assured that they're in good hands.

Ileana did a great job taking care of our fur babies. They instantly loved her! She provided us with regular updates and some adorable pictures while she was pet sitting. We will definitely be reaching out to Ileana for future pet sitting.

Kennedy is a fantastic sitter! Just got back from my first trip away from my pup, and Kennedy helped me feel totally comfortable with it all. She sent lots of pictures and updates while I was gone, and my pup is very happy! Not only did she take good care of my dog, she also took great care of my home and left it looking better than she found it. Would definitely HIGHLY recommend her. So happy to have a good, reliable sitter for future adventures! Thanks Kennedy!

About: Summary: Hi! I’m an experienced caregiver with a passion for animals. I have a fenced yard and all the supplies your pet needs to feel at home. Just bring their food, & any meds. I’ll provide love & a safe environment—your pet will be in great hands we me! Details : All pet water is filtered. I'm great with all animals of all sizes. I've had dogs, cats, and fish, and I get along with them all. I'm sure that your fur, feathered, scaled, or finned family and I - will be great friends. I mostly board and sit with some walks and drop-ins. Mostly depending on the timing. Reach out for special needs and requests. While not trained professionally - I can also help with some behavioral issues. I'd love to meet your pet family. Work from home professional. Single father. I have my daughter every other week and I have a dog that can be kept completely separate if needed. I also have plenty of dog toys that are okay to be beaten up. Gates in-house to control pet location. Allowed to get on furniture and bed. We have a big comfy dog bed as well. Two litter boxes are available. Just ask that you bring food, any special toy, litter for cats, and any medicines. I have two tie-out leads for dogs and a shady backyard that is fenced in. Our neighborhood is quiet and great for walks. I usually board at my home in Nashville (Near Rocky Mount and Spring Hope) but I also have a location in Raleigh that is also a big home with a large backyard and two separate floors. For sitting, I would likely stay with the pet most of the day as I work remotely.I do require high-speed internet access and preferably a decent work desk area. I will work on any behavioral issues that I see in the time that I have. Let me know if you have a question! I work from home and typically do boarding in either Raleigh or Nashville, NC. I have my daughter every other week but she is great with animals also. Takes after her dad. Prefer a little notice but will always try to accommodate last minute requests. I have the ability to keep multiple pets. I have a large fenced in back yard at both locations. Both are single family homes with lots of space. Gates and seperate areas if pets need to be separated. We can also accommodate requests for no other animals be present, however I am great at acclimating animals with each other. Even ones that do not tend to play nice with others. Always up to you in the end. I have muzzels and a Kennel at both homes (if needed) , cat litter boxes at both locations as well. Leases safety collars , and for a small added fee , daily health tracking during the stay with a special collar monitor tracking device that I have. All pets are treated like family with love care and respect. Will work with all breeds ages and sizes.

I understand that every dog has a unique personality, and I’m committed to making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I’ve always had pets, so caring for animals is already a part of my daily life.

I make sure pets are well cared for by maintaining their normal routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, and lots of attention. I have a fenced area at my home where dogs can safely play and get exercise. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, my goal is to help them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owner is away.

About: I have taken care of multiple types of animals over the years from multiple different people. I am a certified veterinary assistant and work at Stuart Sound Animal Hospital when I am not away at school where I am studying to go to Vet school to become a Veterinarian. I also was in the Veterinary program at South Fork High school. I have a great amount of experience with dog sitting/ walking and pet sitting overall. I am working part-time and my daily schedule sometimes changes but will basically be the same with minor changes. Majority of the time each day will have the same hours. I have a fenced back yard for my one dog who loves to run around and who is also very friendly and loves to play.

About: Hey! I’ve been a dog lover since I was a kid and have grown up surrounded by them. At one point, I had four dogs at once, so I’m used to all kinds of energy and personalities! I have three of my own dogs, so I know how important it is to leave your pet with someone who genuinely cares. I’m all about making sure your dog feels safe, happy, and loved whether we’re going for walks, playing, or just relaxing. Looking forward to meeting you and your pup! I have a flexible schedule and can accommodate a variety of pet care needs. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and sitting throughout the week, including weekends. I do my best to keep my availability up to date and can often work with short notice. Your dog’s routine is important to me, so I’m happy to follow feeding schedules, walk times, and any specific care instructions to keep them comfortable and happy. Your dog’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I always make sure pets are in a secure, supervised environment and follow any instructions you provide closely. I take the time to understand each dog’s personality, needs, and routine so they feel safe and at ease. In my home, your pup will be treated like family with plenty of attention, care, and a calm environment. I also have my own dog, so I’m experienced in maintaining a safe and positive space for multiple pets. I’m attentive on walks, mindful of surroundings, and committed to building trust with both you and your pet every step of the way.

Last minute trying to find a dog sitter to keep my baby and I'm so thankful to have found Humberto and his wife. They was a true blessing to take care of Iya while we was out of town. They took pics and videos to assure us that she's doing fine. That really meant a lot to me. They were so sweet and kind!!! And so loving and caring to our baby. I will definitely use them again if they're available. Thanks again 💗

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life since I was a kid. I love dogs and my whole family is very dog friendly. I currently have two of my own dogs, Blizzard my 5 year old Goldendoodle and Boomer my 8 year old Beagle. These guys are my best friends! Since rescuing my Goldendoodle Blizzard, I’ve also learned to bathe & groom him, a special skill that takes practice and patience. I work from home, so I am able to take care of the dogs and be very flexible with their walking, feeding and bathroom needs. At my house, dogs are welcome on the furniture and on the bed at night but I will respect other owners obedience/rules while caring for their dogs. We have a lot of the room in the house which even has a fun room with toy mountain, a collection of hundreds of dog toys that everyone is welcome to play with! I have a big backyard but it is not fenced in. Instead, I prefer to walk the dogs on leashes/leads or attach them to the dog-run line I have running across the backyard for playtime! I would love the opportunity to watch your dog(s) and can be flexible with short-term or long-term stays plus other accommodations. I will treat your dogs as if they were my own and give them a lot of love and care for their entire stay! I work from home, therefore I can accommodate many different types of schedules based on a dogs needs. Frequent walks, feeding or medication is no challenge throughout each day/night. Any dog who comes to stay with us will be loved and cared for as if they were my own. Same goes if I am to come care for your dogs at your home. They will get plenty of love and attention with play-time and companionship!

About: I have always loved caring for animals and treat every pet like a member of the family. While I don’t currently have any pets of my own, that allows me to provide your dog with my full attention and a calm, comfortable environment during their stay. My home features a secure fenced-in patio with pet-friendly turf for outdoor time, and I’m fortunate to have a large dog park directly across the street as well as another dog-friendly area within my neighborhood. Whether your pup enjoys playtime, walks, cuddles, or simply relaxing, I can tailor their care to their individual needs. I have experience caring for dogs of different sizes, ages, and personalities, and I have also volunteered with animal shelters, giving me a strong understanding of dog safety and behavior. My goal is to make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your furry family member, and I would be honored to provide reliable, attentive care for your dog. I look forward to meeting you and your pup! I am currently a nursing student and stay at home mom. This allows me to give your fur babies my full attention and lots of love and interactive play! I believe every pet is happiest when their normal routine is maintained as closely as possible. Before each booking, I take time to learn about your pet’s feeding schedule, exercise needs, favorite activities, medications, and any special instructions. In my home, pets receive plenty of supervision, attention, playtime, potty breaks, and a clean, safe environment. Dogs have access to a fenced-in patio with pet turf and can enjoy walks or trips to the nearby dog park if approved by their owner. Cats are provided with a quiet, comfortable space, fresh water, clean litter boxes, and enrichment activities tailored to their personality. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect both the pet’s routine and the owner’s home. I follow all care instructions carefully, provide regular updates and photos, maintain feeding and medication schedules, clean up after pets, and make sure they receive plenty of attention and affection while their family is away. My priority is always making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while giving owners peace of mind.

Ileana has always been incredible with our fur babies, and exceeded our expectations again!! She’s very attentive to their needs and made sure that we were aware of any concerns she had with our babies. She sent us such sweet and adorable pictures, every day, which we loved. Our babies love her! We truly appreciated her following our care instructions, especially with our cat who requires medicine and extra care. We give Illeana 5 stars and very high recommendation. She’s made it possible for us to enjoy our short trips and week long anniversary trip, and not worry about our fur babies!
