About: Able to bond with animals easily. Have had several dogs over the span of their life ( some for 17 years ) Know what to look for in regards to medical, exercise, and lap time. Would treat them like my own, and mine are my family. I am retired, have dependable transportation, and always ten minutes early. I am retired and have very few obligations. When I commit to a schedule for your pet, that becomes my priority. Accepting all schedule suggestions. Dax..a mixed breed rescue is going on 10 this year. He has a porch and an outside dog run along the side of the house. He tends to venture off to the neighbors dogs when he finds the opportunity. So he is leash walked when we go out. He has a free run of the house, as well as my brothers dog when she visits ( bernadoodle )

About: I have been working with animals for the past five years, I have taken care of dogs, cats, and lizards. I have worked with disabled animals too Due to how my week operates, I am completely flexible. I can drop in weekdays and weekends, you and your pets are my number one priority. Your animal is safe with me; you don't have to worry. I aim to make open and transparent communication my top priority. If something goes wrong or your animal gets sick I will always contact you.

About: I will care your pets like a family. I will give them the attention and care they need, my family , neighbors ,relatives and friends trusted me with their pets . I’m currently working full time, but I also work from home ... so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pup’s I’m available for boarding on weekends and weekdays.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a child. I grew up with dogs and have had my own dogs as well! I currently have a senior dog and an adult dog. I have experience giving medicine and injections. I also have worked with many dog trainers, which has given me great insight on how to work with all dogs of different behaviors and personalities! I work full time from home with a flexibly job, so I am able to easily get take pets out for potty breaks and walks. If the dog I am sitting is at my house and gets along well with other dogs, we will do group walks with my dogs! If not, we will do solo walks. We also have a fully fenced in back yard. I have a fully fenced backyard and baby gates to separate the upstairs and downstairs of my home. My two dogs are used to having other dogs around, but can easily be separated to different parts of the home if needed. I can also easily work with a crate if you are crate training your dog / they are already crate trained.


“Rebecca was awesome with our 2 elderly JRT’s After our old sitter moved away, I thought I would have to take them to a kennel. Everything went very smooth and kept them comfortable in their home.”


About: I’ve been a dog owner my whole life but lost my 12 year old Bernese in July ‘22. My daughter and I have plenty of love to give and want you to feel safe when you need to leave your family dog or cat for awhile. I work in the school system so I’m available in the evenings and weekends until school gets out early June and then my schedule will be open during weekdays. I live in a townhouse so I would board in my home or yours depending on preference. If using my home we would walk on leash or go to the park. I’m also available to take your pup for a walk, to visit and play or just make sure they get to go bathroom and are safe until you get back home.

“Rachel was great! She was warm and responsive and sent lots of updates. She even went beyond and troubleshooted our robot litter box when it wasn’t working properly. I would definitely rebook her.”


“Rylee was such a dream! She was able to take care of our dog who was at a cabin airbnb while we were out of town on Christmas Eve. She was wonderful and sent us many pictures and updates. Definitely book her! ?”

About: I work as a middle school PE and Health teacher in Henderson County. I’ve been an educator and soccer coach for 10 years. I graduated with a degree in Psychology and Health/PE from the University of North Carolina at Wilmington. I have grown up with dogs my whole life and am a proud dog mom to Piper, a chocolate Labrador Retriever, and Toby, a Golden Retriever. The three of us are all very active and love going on long walks at the greenway and hikes on the mountain trails! My dogs are both very friendly and get along very well with other pets, regardless of their size and age! If you choose me to care for your pet(s), whether that be walking, sitting, or having them here for an overnight stay, my goal is to make sure to treat them as if they were my own- with plenty of love, attention, and exercise that I believe every dog is entitled to. If you would like for me to keep your dog overnight, the only request I have would be that you provide a crate and that he/she gets along with other dogs! I work full time as a teacher, so my availability for pet care in addition to taking care of my pets, is limited to the weekends until the end of May. Over the summer, I will have full time availability. Pet care is a regular and rewarding part of my daily routine. I make time each day for walks, play, feeding, and one-on-one attention, and I plan my weekly schedule around the needs of my pets, and the pets in my care. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening cuddle time, I’m flexible and committed to keeping pets happy, healthy, and well cared for. Whether caring for pets in my home or a client’s, I create a safe, comfortable, and loving environment. I follow each pet’s routine closely—feeding, walks, playtime, and any special needs—while giving them plenty of attention and affection. In my home, pets have space to relax, play, and feel like part of the family. In a client’s home, I aim to keep things calm and consistent so pets feel secure in their familiar space.


About: Hi everyone! I am a huge animal lover. Growing up, I was surrounded by dogs, cats, hamsters, rabbits, and chickens. When my friends and family started having me babysit their pets for long periods of time, I realized I loved spending time with the dogs, getting exercise, and being outside. I love what I do. I am a stay at home mom/ college student. I have my own 8 month old puppy who is my baby girl. She LOVES other dogs and is ready to play!!. I am available 7 days a week, on short notice, for long durations, and multiple times a day. I will work with dogs of all breeds, ages, and sizes. They must be friendly towards males, other dogs, and children. I can not wait to meet you and your loveable furry friend!

“Emily was WONDERFUL! She checked in every night with photos of Morgan during her drop in and gave me good tips on how to deal with Morgan's pulling. Would absolutely recommend her!”


“We had such a relaxing getaway knowing that Lisa was caring for our sweet cat. We received lots of photos and updates. We look forward to working with Lisa every time we have to be away.”


“Isabella did a very nice job. What I appreciate most is when someone takes the time to pet and play with my guys, which is not an easy task given how shy they are, but she took the time and effort to put on cat TV, play with a laser and help them warm up to her. She also left detailed notes, which is always nice. I am very pleased with her work:)”

About: My family and I have been fostering dogs for the past 16 years of my life, so I was born and raised around a wide variety of dogs, specifically German Shepherds. At 9 I began a “dog walking company” in my neighborhood for dogs of all ages and sizes. With my mom being on the board for a German Shepherd Rescue, I frequently went with her to help dogsit dozens of different pets. Through her knowledge as a medical coordinator I was also able to learn how to care for puppies, those with medical issues, and senior pets. At any given moment we have 2-4 large dogs in our home, each of which is loved and cared for constantly. I am currently a student at Appstate and only have classes on Tuesday and Thursday from 8am-2pm but Wednesdays I do have meetings from 12-3pm. Besides that my schedule is very open and I am available anytime day or night. I am very conscientious about what it means to enter another persons home. I recognize the importance of keeping doors shut/locked, maintaining a clean space, and loving your pets. I love to spend as much time with pets as possible so being able to feed, walk, and play with them not only helps them but also helps me!

John P.
“If you are looking for someone to give your dog that extra attention, lots of petting, a belly rub, playing fetch, John's your guy. Cats and reptiles too. It doesn't matter if they are young or old, with ailments or maybe not so well behaved, he is all in for animals and giving them lots of love.”


Gabriel J.Star Sitter
“My pets are my children and I have high standards due to their specific needs. Gabriel is one of the few people I trust with their care. Gabriel is a great communicator, patient with stubborn breeds (like mine), and highly knowledgeable in making decisions for the care of your animals. Gabriel is a logical and practical person that translates well with caring for someone else’s animals. Gabriel stands on honesty and integrity, two of the best qualities for trusting someone with your fur babies. You won’t regret hiring Gabriel!”

She has helped walk numerous fosters throughout the years, and has also fed and helped take care of them medically. She has done some pet sitting in our neighborhood and has done an excellent job! Her calm, patient mannerisms are a magnet for animals and they sense her caring from the beginning . They just love her! I highly recommend her, and before she went away to college, was a neighborhood favorite!”
