About: I have had pets as part of my family my whole life. I treat each one I meet like they are my own and have provided care for friends and family throughout the years. During college I helped pet sitting future guiding eyes for the blind dogs. My current dog is now a senior at 11 yo American Bully. We have struggled with allergies since the day I adopted him at 10 months old. I know how to pay extra attention to skin and ear and can administer oral or topically meds. I work remote and have a flexible schedule. During your busy days I can provide drop ins for a bathroom breaks, play time, extra cuddles, and/or a walk. When I’m with your pets and in their space I will provide a safe and kind environment. They should never feel uncomfortable or nervous. As my dog has aged he has become more cautious, causing me to have to be more aware and respectful of the situations he’s in.

“Brianna is AWESOME! She took my two dogs for a walk today, and I was extremely impressed by her professionalism and love of animals! She was very prompt when corresponding with me, and treated my dogs with love & great care throughout the time she was with them. I highly recommend her for any job which you are considering her!”


About: Hi, I'm Meredith! I am an experienced, caring, and trustworthy petsitter. But don't take my word for it! Here's what others have said: "Meredith truly cared about my pets, and I felt completely at ease being away. As someone who’s very picky about who takes care of my dogs, I can wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, caring sitter." "Meredith brought peace of mind, warmth, and reliability to our home. I’d trust her with our pets anytime." "Her calm energy and loving nature were exactly what our anxious rescue needed." "Meredith was fantastic. She cared for our home and animals as if they were her own." I’d love the opportunity to care for YOUR pets and your home! Animals have always been a central part of my life. I grew up in a house full of beloved cats and dogs, and I’ve raised several pets of my own as an adult, so caring for animals is truly second nature. I started pet sitting professionally in my 20s and recently returned to it with renewed passion and dedication. I now have over 7 years of direct pet-sitting experience and a lifetime of hands-on care with animals of all ages, temperaments, and personalities. As a responsible, organized, and nurturing high school English teacher with 20 years in the classroom, I bring calm attentiveness and excellent communication to every sit. I’m also a devoted mom to two kind-hearted, respectful animal lovers (ages 8 and 11), who may occasionally accompany me depending on the arrangement. If they do, rest assured they are gentle, supervised, and bring extra love to the experience. Whether it's administering medication to a senior pet, giving special attention to a rescue, or sticking to your pet’s unique routines and needs, I approach every sit with genuine care and commitment. I’m also experienced in basic training, gentle leash walking, and giving animals the calm, consistent presence they need to feel safe. If you have houseplants, I’ve got you covered there, too. I worked in my family’s garden center for years and enjoy keeping plants healthy and thriving. While I’m newer to this platform, I take each sit seriously and treat every home and pet with the utmost respect. I do not smoke, drink, or use drugs of any kind, and I always bring my own groceries and supplies. Communication is clear before, during, and after the stay, and you'll receive regular updates to give you peace of mind. I’m in a meaningful season of transition and using this time to do something I genuinely enjoy: caring for animals while exploring new places. This work blends my love of travel and nurturing in a way that reflects my values. If you feel we might be a good fit, I’d love to connect virtually or in person, when possible. Looking forward to meeting you and your beloved companions! Pet care is a natural, joyful part of my everyday rhythm. As a longtime teacher and mom, I’m used to creating routines that are structured yet flexible, making it easy to adapt to the unique needs of each pet and home. Whether it’s morning walks, medication schedules, mealtime routines, or play and snuggle time, I build my days around ensuring animals feel safe, loved, and cared for. Because I’m in a season of life where I have more flexibility, I’m able to be fully present with the pets I care for and enjoy giving them plenty of attention, consistency, and calm companionship throughout the day. It’s more than just a task in my routine; it’s a grounding and fulfilling part of my life that I genuinely enjoy. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on maintaining the routines and environment your pet already knows and loves. I follow all instructions closely, whether that means administering medications, preparing special meals, sticking to walk schedules, or providing quiet companionship. I aim to create a calm, consistent atmosphere that feels safe and nurturing, so your pet can relax while you're away. Also, I treat your home with the same respect and care I would my own. I’m clean, organized, and attentive to details, and I always communicate clearly throughout the sit to keep you informed and at ease. If my well-behaved, animal-loving children (ages 8 and 11) accompany me, it’s only with prior agreement, and they are gentle, respectful, and supervised at all times. Above all, I care for each animal as if they were my own, with patience, love, and a genuine commitment to their well-being.

About: I've owned dogs most of my life. Looking to provide care for other pet owners during the week. Life mission to pet all the dogs! I am available Monday to Thursday and some morning weekends. I can provide in home care, walking, feeding, and companionship during the week or before 2p weekends. I am a trustworthy animal loving person looking to provide care for lonely pets during the week at your home or provide walks or trips to a dog park as desired.

About: I have been taking care of dogs and cats my entire life—owning both personally! I also have extensive experience caring for senior dogs and cats. I’m currently working part time, so I have plenty of time to hang out, play with, and take care of your precious doggo or gatos! I have a spacious apartment with tons of room to lounge in. It has a huge comfy couch that pets are welcome to nap on. My complex also has a large, quiet, rarely-used dog enclosure that’s perfect for throwing the ball and getting some exercise in. I also live near the River Walk in downtown Hillsborough, which is perfect for sunny walks.

About: I have worked with dogs for 4+ years to become service dogs and I have spent about half that time volunteering as an urgent responder for sick dogs. My Monday, Wednesday, Thursday evenings are busy from 5-8 but I am otherwise flexible! I’m a college student home for the summer so I am willing to work with you on timing. I have a very large fenced in yard with lots of walking trains and places for dogs to adventure. I do have a dog in the home but they will never be left unsupervised and can easily keep them separated. My personal dog is well mannered and not intact. Safety is always my priority, dogs are always leashed and never unsupervised.

About: I’ve had pets my whole life and have always loved animals! I have two cats and three dogs who mean so much to me! I will definitely treat your pups as I do my own :) I have some experience volunteering with a local nonprofit where I worked with veterans training dogs to become service animals. I also have experience pet/house sitting for friends and family. My schedule is currently pretty flexible, so I will have plenty of time to spend with your loved ones! I will be available for walks and drop in visits from 11am-3pm Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. My weekends are usually open for house sitting. I am ready to adapt to your dogs routine and I will be sure to take the very best care of your pets and homes if an overnight stay is requested.

“Susan was very patient and was on time every time. Ryder my doodle was excited to see her every time and looked forward to her walks. Thank you Susan for your time and willingness to walk our Ryder Girl! We greatly appreciated it!”


About: Hey y'all, I grew up with dogs and had a dog of my own until recently when she passed. I've also spent time on lots of friends farms for fun, doing chores, and farm-sitting for them. I have experience with goats, pigs, cows, ducks, chickens, turkeys, dogs, and cats! This means I know how to interact with lots of different personalities including wary and hyperactive animals. I'm also not afraid of handling messy situations. :) I moved to the Triangle for a paralegal job at a non-profit that works on cleaning up coal ash across the southeast. Years ago I left that job to run a small business and farm. I love my work and living in Hillsborough, and am grateful for a fully flexible schedule! I pet, house, and farm sit a couple of times a year and would be happy to do so for you! Honestly, this is a bit of a selfish endeavor as I would like to be able to spend more time with some floof friends. Feel free to contact me with any questions you may have. Thanks! Jenna I work full time as a self-employed farmer, but my schedule is extremely flexible. I live in town and lease land less than ten minutes away. It is my habit to work early in the morning and later in the day, coming home for the middle portion of the day to avoid the heat. I'm easily able to tailor my schedule to your pet's needs! My apartment is a very lucky setup. I effectively have a private entrance to my place, two fenced areas for dogs, as well as being a two minute walk from a park and public dog park with two additional fences areas. Also, I live alone but have two bedrooms, so the apartment itself is spacious.

“Kari was easy to communicate with and was a caring, dedicated sitter for our dog over our week-long vacation. She was a great resource when we needed someone at the last moment because our dog was sick and couldn't be boarded. Thank you and great job, Kari!”


About: I’m prompt, tidy, and take pet care seriously. I enjoy time spent with a furry friend and build relationships with my clients and their fur family that garners genuine trust. As a stay at home partner, I have quite a bit of time and flexibility to care for your pet throughout the day, and overnight as needed. In my home, I give them time to adjust and treat them with respect and kindness. Outside, pets must be leashed as there is no fenced in yard. In my clients’ homes, I follow their rules to the letter. In ever scenario, your pet will receive undivided attention and care.

“When Rachael first met our dogs, I knew right away she was a great fit! Now, my dogs LOVE getting to see her any time she comes by. She has watched my dogs on multiple occasions for both drop in visits and overnight stays. She treats them as her own, and keeps me updated on everything throughout her stay. She is one of the very few people I trust to keep my babies safe, happy, and healthy until we return. If you choose to work with Rachael, I know you’ll feel the same way!”

Anna M.
“Full disclosure - Grace is my niece but even if she weren't I couldn't think of a better person to take care of your pet. Ever since her brother got a therapy dog, when she was very young, she has been very involved with dog training and their care. She volunteers for EENP and has helped foster, raise and train several of their litters. You couldn't find a more loving, and informed, caregiver for "man's best friend' (cats, guinea pigs and birds too)”


Sara L.
