Pet Sitting Elvehjem

“Very appreciative of Heather and her willingness to check in on my cat while I was away for a few days during the Christmas holiday. She responded in a timely manner to my request and was very communicative during the entire process before and during pet sitting. Heather gave me updates and photos after each visit which I loved! She is experienced with cats and was very lovely as a pet sitter. My cat Myles enjoyed her visits. Highly recommend!”

“Vanessa really has a way of putting me and the cats at ease. She was very professional during the meet and greet, took notes while I explained the feeding routine and asked relevant questions. I left for my trip knowing the cats would be in good hands. She also takes great pet photos. I felt like she really respected each of my cats and their individual boundaries. I highly recommend Vanessa to anyone needing cat care.”

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life—growing up in a home full of fish, birds, cats, dogs, and rodents taught me early on that pets are family. I truly believe every animal deserves love, patience, and attentive care. Today, I share my home with my friendly dog Birdie, who loves meeting new furry friends and makes a great playmate. My two kids are also passionate animal lovers, and together we create a safe, warm, and pet-friendly environment. I’m experienced in administering medications, whether pills, drops, or topical treatments, and I’m happy to support pets with special needs. I also offer daily walks for exercise and enrichment, and I’m comfortable with crate training if it’s part of your routine. Whether your pet is playful, shy, energetic, or relaxed, I’ll treat them with the same love and respect I give my own. I work full-time during the week, but on my weekends off, I love spending my time caring for animals. Pet care has always been a part of my life, and I’m excited to offer reliable, loving support to fellow pet parents when I’m available. Whether it’s weekend drop-ins, walks, or cuddles while you’re away, I’m here to help give your pets the attention and care they deserve. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. My home is fully pet-friendly and thoughtfully pet-proofed to ensure a secure environment. I use baby gates to create designated pet areas, so dogs can have their own space or be kept out of certain rooms when needed. I also have a large, fully fenced backyard—perfect for safe outdoor play and potty breaks. Fresh water is always available in multiple areas of the home to keep pets hydrated throughout the day. Whether your pet loves to run or relax, they’ll have a secure, comfortable, and caring space to enjoy.

About: Animals have been an integral part of my life for as long as I can remember—from growing up around my family’s German Shepherd breeding and training work, to years of rescuing and fostering both dogs and cats. I can provide continuous supervision, regular potty and play breaks, and plenty of outdoor exercise tailored to each dog's energy level and temperament. My home currently includes one calm, dog-friendly resident cat, making for a peaceful, low-stress environment where guest dogs receive focused care and affection. I have worked with senior dogs and cats as well as puppies and kittens. I am experienced with administering medications and experienced with disabled dogs. I work remotely and am home full-time with a flexible work schedule. I can provide 24/7 care for your dog or cat. I am also available for walks throughout the day and week. While boarding in my home, I am able to be available for feeding or potty breaks as needed. I am able to watch the dog or cat to see what they need when. If I am providing drop in visits or walks, my schedule is flexible. I am available during the day and evenings.

“Stephanie checked on our dogs while we were away for a long day. She left a great recap of their time together and shared a few pics. Communicative and exactly what we needed when we were away the whole day!”

About: I have dog sat many different breeds and ages of dogs. I love to go on walks or play outside with younger pups, but am also happy to relax and cuddle on the couch with an older dog. I am a recently graduated college student who is looking for an enjoyable side gig while still working a part time job that doesn’t have set weekly hours. I love dogs and am always down for a walk or cuddle. I prefer a fenced in yard, but understand if that isn’t available. I enjoy playing with the dogs and laying around with them after a long walk.

“Liz was very flexible and willing to help with my 3 pit bull/bully doggies on short notice. Very kind and understanding. Great help. Thanks Liz!”

About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was around 5 years old. I grew up in the country in Texas and at one point we had around 20 cats and 9 dogs. We took care of the strays that made their way onto our property, and sometimes adopted from shelters and random people. I was taught love and compassion for animals since I was a young child. I continue to embrace the kindness I have in my heart for animals everyday. I’m usually available most of the time, as I don’t have any full time work to tend to. I also do not celebrate holidays which can benefit pet owners very much because they can count on me being available as long as I have not already booked with someone else. I would be wonderful to your pup insuring they get enough potty breaks, walks if you would like, maybe the dog park upon your approval, and even car rides if you’d like! I offer complimentary treats.. I keep some in my home. And of course I would get them approved by my client first. For cats in my clients home, I would do the same things. I would also insure the cat box is clean, and lots of play time if that’s what the kitty likes :-)

“We love Paul! He’s the best!”

“Kara did a great job cat-sitting my 3 cats. She loves cats snd my cats seemed to love her. I will definitely consider Kara for my next cat-sitting needs.”

“Shatoria was so great with my cats. She is very responsive and a great listener. I had a lot of changes in care instructions, and she handled everything patiently and without any issues. She kept me updated, followed all the details carefully, and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. I could tell my cats were well cared for and comfortable with her. I would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and attentive pet sitter.”

About: Former member of UNC-Chapel Hill Puppy Raisers, a student-led organization that works with puppies in partnership with Ears Eyes Nose and Paws of Chapel Hill on their journey to becoming service animals. I’m currently working part time, so very flexible with the times and days that I am available to help out with your cats or dogs! I have no pets currently so full attention will be devoted to your animal! I have grown up with dogs my entire life and feel comfortable handling all sizes and breeds.

“Perfect! Talia did a great job with communicating and spending time with my cats!”

“Hailey was amazing! She was super responsive and agreed to watch my dog last minute over Labor Day Weekend and was a lifesaver. She sent plenty of pics and let me know how Delilah was doing and what they got up to on her visits. I will absolutely be reaching out again in the future!”

Emma B.

“Emily was wonderful and kind. I needed someone last minute and she completely understood and was there to check in on my pup. She gave lots of updates and pictures and was on time. She tired my high energy girl out for me and it was so appreciated! I’ll be using her again!”

Kara F.

“Kylie was absolutely wonderful with our cats, Georgie and Weezy!! She was punctual, attentive, and kept us updated with photos and messages during her drop-in visits. Georgie really liked her and she tends to be more timid with strangers. We’ll definitely book with Kylie again!”
