“Becca was prompt and communicative, we were so grateful for the updates and the reliability! We didn’t get to meet Becca in person this time but hope to in the future!”

“Miranda has exceeded my expectations! She is friendly and very professional. She spent an hour with us during a meet and greet to make sure my dog and I were comfortable with her. She’s respectful and great with communication! Only thing I wish, is that there were two of her!”

Sarah S.

“Thank you so much for everything, Blair! Miles and I so appreciate it!!”

About: I’ve always had dogs and cats growing up. All have been taken care of from 2 months and onwards! I find joy in connecting with animals and serving them - as they have served my life in beautiful ways by just expressing their unconditional love and gratitude with their movements and actions rather than words. It is an gift to be loved by these beautiful creatures daily. I am currently working independently and using this time to create and spend time with nature’s gifts. My schedule is very flexible - and I am willing to work with you! I make sure that they are walked, legs stretched, bowels taken care of, fed, played with and loved. Following the rules as listed by the parent. Mindful of the surrounding environment and respectful of what is needed of me.

“Alex is highly recommended by us and our dog, Duncan. Before finding Alex, we have never trusted the care of our dog or house to anyone. We can’t tell you how thankful we are for finding Alex!”

Kristine S.

“Our dog took to Ashlee like she was family. She was always there when she planned to be and the communication was excellent. We are so grateful for her professional approach and hometown kindness. Well done!”

“Alexis was wonderful her second time seeing Maggie on short notice. I truly appreciate her attention to detail and taking Maggie out for a walk over to the nearby park. Above & beyond. :)”

About: I have many years of experience with small animals of all breeds, sizes, ages, and medical needs. I also have some experience with large breed animals from volunteer work at a horse rescue. I work four days a week from 7:30am-4:30pm Monday thru Thursday. I am available all day Friday thru Sunday. Your dog will be attended to in the morning before work, at lunch (if permitted), and immediately after work hours. My home is an apartment located in a complex with a dog park. Otherwise, your dog will be let out to use the bathroom and for a walk multiple times daily on a leash.

“Megan was so caring for my pups! She kept in touch with updates and pictures, and made sure they got exercise and extra love in my absence. I definitely plan to use her in the future!”

About: I've grown up with several cats. My best friend and the love of my life is a tabby cat I've had since I was 12 years old. I didn't have a dog growing up but I frequently cared for my neighbors Great Pyrenees. My first dog as an adult was a rescue coonhound mix and my current dog is a purebred Redbone Coonhound. I live in an apartment with 2 cats and a dog. I work part time at Food Lion, but I'm wanting to be a full-time pet sitter. Humans are too complicated for me. Plus it gives me the opportunity to spend more time with my dog! I live in an apartment but I'm very active. I utilize all the trails and parks in the area and I bring along my buddy Cheeto, a foster Redbone Coonhound who loves other dogs, as well as my new puppy!

About: I love dogs and have been working with them for over a decade now. I started at the Humane Society in 2011 then soon transitioned into Grooming in 2013. I worked for several years as a dog groomer before moving to Colorado and began working for Boulder Doggie Adventures. I was responsible for pick ups, walks/hikes, house sitting and daycare. I currently run a dog washing and grooming trailer around the weaverville area a few days a week! Blue Ridge Dog Grooming. I love working with dogs and will absolutely show your pup all the love and spoils I have to offer! Your dog is part of the family when they are here! Dogs are never left unsupervised or locked up all day. Your pup will have 2 leashed walks a day, once in the morning once in the evening. We have a 7 acres to explore, always leashed we currently do not have a fenced but we have a 200ft lead that we use when we are outside and we are almost ALWAYS outside! Our pups love to explore and play in the creek, they will get lots of love and attention between us and our kiddos they will not be without snuggles and pets! We are on 7 acres of land so lots of space to explore either on leash or off leash! We have a creek that lets them cool off and plenty of toys and dog beds to provide for your pup as well as homemade treats. Lots of room for your pup to run and play or lay in the shade of the trees in the back. Your dog is part of our family and cared for as such. I am CPR certified as well as Groomer Certified. Your pups will be safe and loved while they stay! I also provide daily photos and write ups that is sent daily so you always know how they are doing.

About: Dogs have always been a joy for me to be around. I’ve completed several dog-sitting stays, including a two-week stay and multiple week-long stays, where I cared for feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and daily routines. While I’m newer to professional dog walking, I’m reliable, attentive, and committed to giving every dog plenty of exercise, affection, and care. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I work hard to make both dogs and owners feel comfortable. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to pet care. I work from home on my small business and attend occasional makers markets, making it easy for me to accommodate walks, and drop-in visit needs throughout the week. I enjoy being active and spending time with animals, so pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. Safety is my top priority during every walk. I regularly walk my mother-in-law’s dog and am experienced with keeping dogs secure on leash while paying close attention to our surroundings. I take appropriate precautions based on the environment, including traffic, wildlife, weather conditions, and interactions with other dogs. I understand that every dog has different comfort levels and needs, and I work to ensure each walk is safe, positive, and stress-free.

About: I've taken care of dogs since I was five years old. I still distinctly remember the breeder of the first dog I ever owned - a chocolate lab named Ginger - looking me in the eye after seeing I was apprehensive about the dogs and telling me, "Son, some day this dog will be the best friend you ever had." Ginger and I went everywhere together. I've had dogs and cats virtually my whole life, and the animals love me. While I am employed full time, I work in a hybrid setting that includes roughly 3 remote days per week, so I can be pet sitting on site and developing as close a band as I can to alleviate the babies' separation anxiety. I aim to please - if you'd prefer for your fur baby to be crated at night, then I will make sure s/he does that. My only job, other than to make the babies' experience as smooth as possible, is to follow the directions laid out by the owners.

“Kate helped us out when we needed a last minute dog walker. We are very grateful. We appreciate her great communication. We will definitely be using her again :)”

About: i don't have a lot of experience in dog care other than taking care of friends dogs or the last few years, but i love being around dogs and really care about getting them out and giving them the exercise and social experiences they need. I love to take dogs our on runs and give them social opportunities with other dogs. I love animals and would love to be given the opportunity to love yours. The majority of my work is all open ended and very flexible. I can work pet care into all aspects of my life. There isn’t a lot that i’m doing currently that can take my attention away from your pets. I will not be bringing any pets to my house, but i will come to yours and do over night stays, extended stays, or walk your dogs if you will be out for more than 4 hours at a time. I will make sure your dogs and cats get clean fresh water and fed by whatever times you wish. i will keep the liter box clean and the yard clean as well.

About: I have been an animal lover for life and a dog owner for two years. Before that I have been a dog sitter several times in the UK, where I am from. I have regularly cat-sit for a family, which included taking the little feline out on walks in her harness! I love doing training with my own dog, (who is steadily becoming more well behaved!) and would be happy to incorporate training into my visits with yours. I am a very active person and can play ball, run, and walk with dogs. I know the importance of mental stimulation. I am currently available most days, with the exception of Wednesdays. I am an artist and market vendor, and I am able to adjust my schedule much of the time to fit in with your needs. I am happy to walk dogs and do check-ins at your home. I am a careful and cautious person and will follow instructions given as closely as I can.

About: I've had pets my whole life. I did 4 years of vocational training in veterinary medicine throughout high school, and I also pet sitted for neighborhood pets during that time. Afterwards, I went to college and got a Bachelor's degree in Animal Sciences, focusing on Behavior and Well-Being. I had many animal related jobs throughout that time and am fully ready to return to caring for cats and dogs. I'm currently working full time, so I am a bit busy. However, I am trying to get a part time job so I can have more time to dedicate to your beloved pets. I prefer to care for animals in their own home, so they can still feel a sense of safety and comfort if they are wary around strangers or don't care for new environments.

About: I have always loved and cared for animals since I was young. I have taken care of my own and other people's fur babies. I love when my friend's pets get excited to see me because I equally share their joy! Dogs: I have always loved dogs and had at least 1 since childhood until a few years ago sadly. The automatic baby voice comes out when I see and talk to a dog. I have found myself spending more time with the dogs than the humans at gatherings sometimes and I appreciate those moments. I love all breeds and sizes! When seeing a new dog in passing, I ask each owner if it’s okay for me to “say hi”/pet their fur baby because all are different with different personalities and life experiences. I tell my kitties often that they will have a canine sibling soon! Cats: Currently a cat mom of 2, the stars in my pictures! I was ignorant of cats until I found my own. I listened to many behavioral podcasts along with my research to understand their uniqueness, and now I deeply appreciate and understand wholeheartedly the love earned from such individual little creatures. My kitties are my shadows, I never use the restroom alone. They have taught me so much and I love the unique personality that I find in each one of them. I know how important it is to respect their space (especially if they're more standoffish) and ensure they have all their resources, especially when their humans are away! Currently working my own flexible schedule so I can make any time work that your fur baby needs. Some pets are used to early mornings and some are used to late evenings. Whatever works for yours! My kitties eat raw, so I make their food daily and give them specific supplements and treats depending on their behavior and the litterbox situation. I'm in tune with my kitty's behaviors and meows knowing what they're requesting in that moment. When caring for other people's pets, I'm mindful of where we use the bathroom (if possible) and clean up appropriately. No details are too many, I'm very supportive of specific needs and how your fur baby may be familiar with their care.

About: NOW BOOKING for SPRING & SUMMER! 🧡🐠 I’ve taken care of many dogs and cats since I was a teenager, all with unique personalities and quirks! From a blind senior dog to a full colony of cats I’ll show your animals the compassion and kindness they expect. Booking with me earns you not just a great pet sitter but I’m a neighbor you can count on, and you can never have too many of those in Asheville :) I am available weekdays and weekends to play and care for your furry friends! When I’m not caring for yours, I’m writing poetry with a cat on my lap or hiking with my dog. There’s no place like home, that’s why I can come to yours and maintain your pets comfort. I have experience with pets who have separation anxiety, allergies, and I can provide quality support for your fur babies.
