About: Hi my name is Mike, I have over 30 years of experience with animals. I own five dogs currently. I have had cats, birds, fish, bunnies, snakes, ferrets and iguanas. Heading out? I’ll keep tails wagging, wings flapping, and whiskers twitching! From pups and kittens to bunnies, birds, and reptiles—your beloved pets get all the care, cuddles, and playtime they deserve while you’re away. 🐶🐱🐰🦎🦜 What sets me apart? I don’t just “watch” pets—I bond with them. 🐾 Whether your pup needs help with potty training or your senior cat needs extra TLC, I’ve got the patience, experience, and big heart to meet them where they are. I’m confident with all kinds of animals—wiggly puppies, shy bunnies, talkative parrots, and even your bearded dragon with attitude. 💬🦎 From giving meds to managing routines, I treat each pet like they’re my own (spoiled and adored!). My goal? To make your pet feel safe, loved, and entertained while you’re away—so you can relax knowing they’re in good paws. 🐶🐱🐰🦜🐢 I work from home, I have a very flexible schedule. I’m available everyday. Late nights or early mornings are ok with me. I’m here to help. I care for your pets in their comfort zone—your home! 🏡🐾 I stick to their usual routines so everything feels familiar: same feeding schedule, favorite toys, walks on their route, and belly rubs in their go-to spot on the couch. I keep things clean, cozy, and calm—whether that means scooping litter boxes, watering plants, or giving meds with a treat and a smile. 💊🍖 Plus, I send updates (with adorable pics!) so you never have to wonder how they’re doing. Your pets stay happy, relaxed, and loved until you’re home again. ❤️🐶🐱🐰🦎

About: Hello! My name is Karissa and I'm 25. I've taken care of, fostered, and owned many cats and dogs throughout all life stages. As a child, I always had animals in the house to take care of, and I've been dog/cat sitting since I was 16. I am familiar with kittens and puppies, but also with elderly dogs/cats as well as dogs/cats with various medical conditions that may need different kinds of medicine administration or lifestyle adjustments. I am currently available full time for your pet, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your animals! I am available for house sitting and stopping by your home. I understand that keeping our pets safe and happy is of the highest priority, and how I will take care of your pets will reflect that. It is always important to make sure your pups are going on walks fit for their lifestyle/needs and that every cat is getting the stimulation they need while you are away.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs small and large since 2016 for family friends and neighbors. I have a real passion for animal care and my utmost priority is to make sure the well being of your pet is at an all time high. I’ve also gone through online training courses for dogs and cats detailing proper care techniques. I recently started looking for a job but I will update this when / if it changes! Friday mornings are my only recurring schedule block currently. I can tailor the visit to how best it is to fit your pet’s needs. On visits where a potty break is needed, they will be taken out and given treats and lots of love with some fresh water. On meal visits they will be given their meals and fresh water with lots of love as well. On overnight visits I follow the directions exactly and leave the place and the pet(s) looking and feeling better than when I arrived.

About: I’ve been an animal lover my whole life, from hermit crabs to horses. The last 15 years I’ve gone from volunteering with animals to now rescuing and owning 2 dogs and 2 cats of my own. I’m a resident physician but I’m currently on a research year so my schedule is pretty flexible for home visits or walks- but also for boarding given that I have a very animal friendly environment in my own home. I have a three bedroom, split level house with a large backyard and access to a huge field on the other side of my yard for things like fetch and walks. I have 2 energized and social dogs in my own home who are very friendly, love cuddling and playing fetch. I also have 2 cats who do well around my dogs, one younger one that plays along with them and one older one who is still social but keeps more of a distance from play time.

“Natalie is great with our pup! She brings her doggies to walk with our little pug (with permission of course) and it’s a big bonus to for her to meet new friends and socialize further. Very flexible, reliable and accommodating! Would definitely recommend Natalie to other pet parents without hesitation.”

About: Dogs that will be in my care will be loved and taken care of as if they were my own. I have a lot of experience with animal care, 5+ years. On my free time I like to volunteer at the Wake County Animal Shelter as a dog walker and dog cuddler. I’m here for you and your dog😊 Im free throughout the weekday but mostly on the weekend. I always have my phone on me so if you need me, I’ll be there. I’m open to all client requests and requirements for caring for their pet. While in your space I’d respect it as if it’s my own.

About: I've loved animals for as long as i can remember. I love seeing how their little personalities and quirks come out. It's a joy working with them, and getting to know them. I have experience working in boarding at a vet office, I do volunteer work at a horse farm, and I have pet sat many times. I am comfortable feeding, walking, giving baths, giving certain medications (such as pills or medicine for ears), or just hanging out. My goal as a sitter is to ensure that your pet is as comfortable, happy, and healthy, as they can be. I look forward to meeting your four-legged friend and making sure you worry less about them when you're away :) I have experience with the following animals: Cats, dogs, fish, chickens, horses, rabbits, guinea pigs, goats, and ducks. I’m a High school graduate with some free time, so I’d love to help anyone that I can! My schedule is fairly flexible but I do have some busy weeks. I’m often booked at around 11am-12pm, so I might not be available those times. Ps. No I don’t plan on going to college, so I should stay pretty free! I will ensure they always have fresh water and food, medications on time, walks, clean litter boxes/tank/hutch/enclosure, and love. As well as knowing where they are at all times. I can update you on how your pet is doing, and will make sure I know exactly what you require of me, so as to cut out any mistakes or misunderstandings.

“Alexia was beyond amazing!!! Super flexible with my crazy work schedule. She did great with both of our dogs. Always kept great communication between and during her visits. This travel nurse greatly appreciates her!”

About: I follow instructions and care for all animals like they are my own. I can care for your typical fur babies such as dogs and cats, but am also comfortable caring for reptiles, amphibians and other aquatic animals. I understand that all animals have different personalities, but all require patience, understanding and love. I work part-time during the spring and summer so I have extra time to help. I get up early, so if your pets like to be up and going around the crack of dawn, look no further. If you have night time creatures or animals that don’t like the heat, I can also accommodate that as well. I treat everyone’s home with upmost respect. I keep you informed throughout the day of all activities to make sure you know that your loved one is taken care of.
