About: I was a pet sitter for dogs and cats throughout middle and high school, for over 30 families. After college, I’m ready to get back to it! I’m an animal lover at heart, with a medium goldendoodle! I work full-time at Elon University, but am flexible before 9AM, during the lunch hour 12-1 pm, and evenings until 10:30 pm. I prioritize a 30-min visit with your pet, including feeding, playing, cuddles, & a walk, if requested. I prioritize you & the pet’s comfortability above all else. I prefer a Meet & Greet before scheduled service to make sure your animal feels comfortable & we can be on the same page with expectations and availability

I am happy to stay at your house with your pets while you are out of town or stop by throughout the day to take care of them! I am happy to take your dog on walks, to the dog park, or take them outside to play! I am experienced with and am comfortable with dogs of all sizes. I am currently working part time so I will have plenty of time to fit your furry family into my schedule. Whether this be overnight or check ins throughout the day!

“Adoni was great I was really nervous for my first time using this app and she was amazing with keep me updated and sending pictures. My cat had an amazing time and I will be booking with here again!”
“Lily is like a longtime friend staying over. We instantly felt at ease that our cat Guru and the house were in very capable hands. Communication was spot-on, just enough to let us know that all was well at home and that kitty was happy. We got home to find a very contented cat who had clearly had a ball of a time with Lily. She clearly knows how to communicate with cats and speak their language.”
About: I’ve taken care of many different breeds, animals… It’s my favorite thing to do when i need a little side job for some extra cash, I’ve been able to cut my own dog Sully (labordoodle) and groom her! I’m available most mornings and evenings during the week, and I have more flexible availability on weekends. I’m happy to coordinate times that work best for you and your pet’s routine. When caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I always focus on making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, bathroom breaks, playtime, and any special instructions from the owner. For cats, I make sure they have fresh food and water, a clean litter box, and a calm environment. I understand that cats can take time to warm up, so I’m always patient and respectful of their space while still providing attention and companionship. For dogs, I provide regular potty breaks, walks, exercise, and lots of affection. I prioritize safety at all times and make sure pets are supervised and comfortable. I also love sending photo and message updates so owners can feel confident that their pet is happy and well cared for while they’re away.
About: I am a veterinary assistant (coming from a emergency and specialty hospital setting) with a background of animal boarding/daycare experience which includes basic grooming (nail trimming, anal gland expression, bathing...), training, and play. I'm comfortable and experienced with all types of animal behavior and am more than happy to accommodate special needs! I am skilled in dog and cat medication administration: intranasally, subcutaneously, orally, and intramuscularly. I am also RECOVER certified in dog/cat CPR BLS/ALS and well versed in handling animal emergencies and events. I am also comfortable with chicken (just chickens at this point in my career), rabbit, and guinea pig care including SQ, IM, and oral medication administration. I love animals and i'm elated to have the opportunity to take care of your babies! I'm currently a part-time worker at a general family vet practice and pick up shifts occasionally at an emergency veterinary hospital. My schedule is a little flexible due to this fact and my availability will reflect this! I do own two (2) cats of my own and will ask if your pet is comfortable with being left for maximum 2 hours at a time, no more than once a day so I can check up on them. This is for house sitting only. When visiting your home I'll be conscious of how your pet receives me. For bright, young puppies and kittens, I'll keep them entertained and stimulated for the length of my visit, making sure there is no signs of trouble or illness. I'll be sure to clean and sanitize myself before and after each visit with these puppies/kittens to ensure their safety and health. The same applies with young and old adult dogs and cats, taking into consideration the special needs that come with age.
About: I’ve been around dogs my whole life, so caring for them comes naturally. I grew up in a dog-loving home and have hands-on experience with all kinds of pups—from cuddly lap dogs to high-energy, hyperactive breeds. I understand dog behavior, know how to keep even the most energetic pups engaged, and I’m patient and gentle with dogs of all ages. Whether your dog needs extra playtime, calming companionship, or a steady routine, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, loved, and right at home. I work part-time, which means I’m available most hours of the day to give your dog the attention they deserve. My flexible schedule allows me to offer consistent care, whether that’s walks, playtime, feedings, or just keeping your pup company. Pet care isn’t just something I fit in—it’s something I genuinely enjoy and prioritize in my day. Whether I’m caring for your dog in my home or yours, I always aim to match their usual schedule and routine to help them feel comfortable and secure. I take time to learn each dog’s unique needs—whether they’re playful, anxious, energetic, or just love cuddles. I have the energy and experience to keep up with high-activity pups and the patience to care for more laid-back or sensitive dogs. My goal is to provide personalized, loving care that feels just like home.
