About: I’m a 20-year-old college athlete currently playing volleyball at Gardner-Webb University. I’ve been taking care of dogs for several years and have experience with breeds ranging from French Bulldogs to medium-sized mixed breeds. Friends and family trust me to walk, feed, and care for their pets with love and attention. I’m dependable, responsible, and truly enjoy spending time with dogs—whether it’s playtime, a relaxing walk, or just hanging out together. As a student-athlete with a flexible schedule, I have plenty of time to dedicate to your pets—especially for walks, drop-ins, or weekend boarding. I’m usually available weekdays after 10 AM and most weekends. I make sure to plan around your pet’s needs and routines, so they always feel cared for and comfortable. I live in Statesville and offer pet care in your home, where your pet feels most comfortable and secure. I always prioritize safety and follow your instructions carefully to keep your pet happy and healthy. I’m trustworthy, dependable, and committed to treating your home and your pet with the same respect and care I would expect for my own.
“Blakely is amazing. She came to meet my girls before hand so they wouldn’t be scared when she came to look after them. The little report card that came after her visit was so informative and let me know my girls felt very comfortable with her.”
“Caitlin is wonderful! She was so quick to respond especially on such short notice. I really appreciated how thorough the visit card was. Communicative and punctual, I would definitely ask her to sit my baby again!”
“Susanna was amazing and was very attentive to the needs of my 4 year old weimaraner. I would recommend her to anyone looking for help with your pets.”
About: I have been taking care of different types of dogs breeds since I was 5 years old. I have experience in following bathroom schedules and food schedules. I am also dedicated to being playful and affectionate to every dog. I am also experienced in taking care of senior dogs because I had to put medication in my childhood dog’s wet food before she passed away on February 12th. I hope you can trust me to take care of your furry friend(s) because they are our family 💕 I am currently an online full-time college student at ECU working towards my Bachelor’s degree in Industrial Technology. I graduated with my associate’s degree for Information Systems Support in 2024. Other than my college workload and taking care of my kitten, my fiancés cat, and my fiancés dad’s cat, I have pretty open availability. Availability may become more limited during Spring and Fall due to more classes during those semesters. For dogs, I follow your dog’s food and bathroom schedule. This will be required to have before booking. For cats, I check on the litter box often, typically scooping it 2-3 times a day. I will also follow your cat’s food schedule. This will be required before booking. For both animals, both will have high quality affection and play time multiple times a day!
“Bella seemed very happy and well taken care of while we were away. Thanks Holly!”
About: I have years of experience taking care of dogs of all sizes, horses, cats, and even the occasional ferret! An animal lover since an early age I have had many friends, family, and later clients ask me to care for their four legged friends weather it be for an afternoon or multiple days. I am a graduate student so my schedule is flexible but variable. Please contact me to find out if my schedule works with yours and what your pets needs are! I am happy to stay at your house to care for your pet. If overnight care is not needed I am happy to stop by and take your pup for a walk and provide additional care
“Megan is so awesome - I requested last minute due to a death in the family and Megan accepted the job without hesitation. Such a relief to know my kitties are always in such good hands.”
“Lynsey did a wonderful job with all three dogs. I got reports on time and pictures of each dog every visit. I will definitely call her for our next out of town trip.”
About: I’ve had dogs since a very young age, and currently have 1 large dog. She’s a certified lovable crackhead. I’ve had cats before but don’t currently as mine thinks she can harass them. I enjoy training dogs in my free time as I work with mine regularly. I work EMS so my schedules a little weird but I’d love to help out with your fur babies. I can handle medication administration and CPR if needed. Whatever their play needs are I can work around. Whether they love long or short walks I can provide as well. I work healthcare so my schedules a little but I’ll make something work! Drop ins and walks would be the best options for me but feel free to reach out! I wouldn’t be able to care for any babies in my home but I can easily assist at yours. My baby is on a schedule of 7a/7p is breakfast/dinner. She goes outside when she alerts me, and is free roam when outside. I can follow any instructions you provide otherwise I’d care for your babies like I would mine (probably spoil them).
About: With many years of experience as a veterinary technician in both shelter and clinic settings, I bring a deep understanding of animal behavior, health, and care to every pet I work with. My hands-on experience ranges from administering medications and handling emergencies to comforting anxious pets and supporting their emotional well-being. I’ve worked with animals of all sizes, temperaments, and medical needs, making me exceptionally well-prepared for pet sitting, dog walking, and providing attentive, professional care. Your pets will be in the hands of someone who treats them with the same compassion, patience, and expertise that I’ve developed over years in the field! I love being able to meet other people's fur babies and make them feel safe and happy when under my care.❤️ I am currently only working two days a week at my veterinary clinic, which leaves me with a fairly open and flexible schedule. This allows me plenty of time to dedicate to pet sitting, dog walking, and providing reliable, attentive care for your pets when you need it most. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I prioritize their comfort, safety, and routine. I make sure to follow any specific instructions regarding feeding, medications, exercise, and behavior. In my home, I provide a clean, pet-friendly environment with plenty of attention, playtime, and a calm atmosphere. When caring for pets in their own home, I maintain their regular routine to reduce stress, keep their space tidy, and make sure they feel secure and loved while their owners are away. My background as a veterinary technician means I’m also confident handling any special needs or medical situations that may arise.
About: My name is jharasen or jp for short. I have been working with dogs for about 16yrs ... in doggy daycare, pet sitting, vet clinics and at the shelter. I am looking to get my boarding and Board-and-train started so I can work with dogs at home full time. I am currently working with a mobile vet Saturday and Sunday but am available most days and time for pick up and drop off. I do crate boarding and out of crate boarding... it depends on the dog and your preference of what might better suit them while they are with me. I try to get the dogs out at least once a week for a hike for the ones that stay longer. I also have playmates for them with my own crew of pups everyday. I like to give my honest report of how your dog does while with me so that if it doesn’t work on either end you can find the right fit for you pup next time the you leave town. Animals are my passion and to learn and Create a safe and fun environment is what I always aim for. I work hard to have the right environment for different dogs needs to the best of my abilities while they are with me. I am not a Certified trainer but I have been training dogs on my own for the past 12years and am Currently an intern with a trainer here in town learning new techniques of training ... having the knowledge and backing of the trainer I have been able to find creative ways to help with dogs who seemed stressed or needing more outlets when with me. I am super excited to start this journey in a more full time kind of way. I hope to hear from you and your pup soon ... p.s. I also do dog baths, nail trims, and simple grooms. Thank you I do help teach a class on Tuesday from 3 to about 8ish and Wednesday from 1 to about 4ish. Other wise i am home most of the time the other days. I have a fenced-in yard that the dogs can play in when I am home. They are also able to come in and hang out inside as well. I do keep all dogs separated when I am not home or able to watch them just for safety reasons. I have class from 3ish to 8ish Wednesday. Otherwise i am home the most of the time the other days unless I have an appointment. I have a fenced-in yard part of it is what i call my rainy day yard which is truf grass with a 3 ft fence around it ... I also have a 6ft fence around the while back yard for the dry days that make the play space much bigger ... but who wants to play in the rain anyways lol. I do slow introduction with ever new pup that comes in and go at their pace to make sure they feel as comfortable as possible while they are staying with me.
