House Sitting Flat Springs

“Caitlin did a great job with our two girls! One was recovering from a stomach surgery and Caitlin was able to administer medication and special food on last minute notice. We could tell from the pictures that she sent that our girls were comfortable and happy. Caitlin was very communicative the whole stay. We will be booking again in a few weeks! Highly recommend to anyone looking for a reliable and loving sitter.”

“Dom was great looking after my two cats for four days. I would highly recommend her to others and will definitely have her take care of my cats again! She sent lots of pics and asked questions if one of the cats wasn't eating. She's far and away the best cat sitter I've had!”

“Layne was absolutely amazing! The day we left out of town things changed for us last minute and Layne was a true angel just rolling with the punches of everything. Once we were able to go on with plans, she was everything you truly could ever hope for in a pet sitter! She was attentive, diligent, patient with our two puppies with some of the difficulties they have, incredibly communicative, and always sent pictures. I most certainly will be rebooking with her every single chance I can.”

“Jillian took great care of my two pugs. She stayed with them overnight for a week, since pictures and gave great feedback that they were doing well. I would absolutely recommend Jillian and I will definitely be utilizing her services again.”

“I just can’t see enough good things about Christie, but I’ll try. She took such good care of my 17-year-old, sickly pup. She went above and beyond. She washed bedding and rugs. She hand fed my puppy, and she even folded my laundry. I was five hours away and there’s nothing I could do, but I didn’t have to worry because I knew that Christy was taking good care of her.”

About: Throughout middle and high school I was a local dog sitter to several different families in my neighborhood. Now, I spend my time volunteering at the local animal shelter or pet sitting. I currently am in graduate school at Appalachian State. I am only in class Monday and Tuesdays and the rest of the week I work part time at a school. I’m able to come home in between classes to spend time with pets and let them outside. I care for pets like I would my own! I make sure that they have everything they need for their happiness and wellbeing. Dogs and cats get especially anxious when their owners leave, so I understand the importance of giving them extra love and care!

About: Hello! My name is Makayla it’s nice to meet you! I have 10 years of experience working at a lodging facilities and I currently work at the Hospitality House. During my time at Dogwood Acres, I gained my CPR certification for animals. Before moving here for college. I am an animal lover and truly enjoy taking care of animals! My family and I have rescued my cat, Iris, and my lab dog, Drake, is a trained hunting dog. I look forward to getting in contact with you and meeting your furry friends! I have gained a lot of experience with dogs and cats through working at Dogwood Acres! I have experience with properly administering medication, feeding, bathing, dog walking, and any other dog activities that you would like! **** My best friend (who works at the Bay Area Vet and worked at Dogwood Acres with me) and I usually do Rovers together (we split the payment together) which works out really perfectly since it allows us to give as much attention as possible to your animal. I have a pretty flexible schedule, my work hours depend on the day so just try to reach out as soon as possible so I can adjust accordingly! I have a fenced yard where my black lab can safety run around in. Working at Dogwood Acres has allowed me to be able to provide trained dog walks as well as supervised play time. I can also be responsible for feeding them and watching them throughout the night if necessary. As a dog owner myself, I understand how important is it to feel that your pet is in a trusted environment, I can promise you I will make their stay as safe and fun as possible!

“Katy was an AMAZING dog sitter! Our pup is a little anxious and she was so sweet making sure he was comfortable and happy. She sent us updates and pictures and was very quick to respond whenever I messaged her to check in. She stayed at our place and was a wonderful guest. We came home to a super clean house and everything exactly as we left it. Wally was definitely super happy when he was with her and I would 1000% use Katy again to dog/house sit!”

About: I have worked Animal Rescue, Fostering, Rehabilitation, and Adoptions the last 6 years! I understand pet parents, can easily follow instructions, and will stay alert to your pet needs! I will value your pet as I would my own! I currently work remotely, so I am extremely flexible. If not house sitting, I can make as many or little stops at your house as needed. I prefer to not board animals at my home. I do not have a fenced in yard, so it is not very suitable for a dog.

“Any was wonderful! She took great care of our little zoo and she sent us photos. Great communication and I absolutely recommend her and will use her again ❤️”

“All I can say is Gad is awesome.we just completed a two week trip and Gad took care of our fur babies while we were gone . Our dogs loved him and he spent a lot of time with them. They are both senior dogs and need a lot of care . Pills twice a day etc… and Gad went over and beyond expectations. One of my dogs wasn’t eating for a couple of days and Gad even bought him chicken and grilled it on the grill for him . Well needless to say my dog ate . Gad is very respectful and very responsible. I would highly recommended Gad .”

About: I’ve walked and boarded dogs for friends and neighbors for years and have done extensive volunteer work with animals-it’s something I’m truly passionate about. I’ve always considered myself an animal advocate and take pride in making sure every pet feels safe, loved, and cared for. Whether it’s an energetic puppy or a senior dog who needs a gentler pace, I tailor each walk to their needs. I’m attentive, patient, and always focused on their well-being. Working part-time from home gives me the flexibility to plan my day around your pet’s needs. I can easily adjust my schedule for walks, playtime, and care. When caring for pets in my home, I follow their regular routine to keep them comfortable and relaxed. I make sure they’re fed on schedule, have plenty of fresh water, and get the right amount of exercise and attention. I take time for play, walks, and companionship, always keeping their safety my top priority. I treat every pet with the same respect and care I would want for my own. My home is pet-friendly with plenty of space to play, nap, and explore.

“Steph did an amazing job with our dog and was very easy to work with. We would absolutely recommend her and use her again.”

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, and caring for them has always come naturally to me. I’ve been blessed to love and care for pups of all ages — from energetic puppies who need patience and structure, to sweet senior dogs who need a little extra gentleness and attention. Growing up around dogs taught me more than just the basics of feeding and walking. It taught me how to read their body language, understand their different personalities, and recognize when they need comfort, space, playtime, or reassurance. Every dog is different, and I truly respect that. I know how important it is to trust someone with your fur baby. They’re family. My goal is always to make them feel safe, loved, and at home while you’re away. Whether that means long walks, play sessions, sticking closely to their routine, or just quiet cuddles on the couch, I’m happy to meet them where they are. Your dog won’t just be watched — they’ll be cared for with patience, kindness, and genuine love. As a stay-at-home dog mom, I’m home the majority of the time, which allows me to be fully present and flexible for your fur babies. My schedule is very open, so I’m available most days and times to provide attentive, loving care. Because I’m not juggling a full-time job outside of the home, your pet won’t be left alone and will receive consistent supervision, potty breaks, playtime, and cuddles throughout the day. I truly enjoy being home and caring for animals, so pet sitting fits naturally into my daily routine and allows me to give each dog the time, patience, and attention they deserve. 🐶💛 When caring for pets in my home, I focus on creating a calm, safe, and loving environment where they feel comfortable and secure. I follow each pet’s usual routine as closely as possible — including feeding schedules, potty breaks, walk times, medications, and bedtime habits — because I know consistency helps reduce stress. Pets in my care receive plenty of supervision, affection, playtime, and rest. Since I stay home, they’re rarely left alone and always have someone nearby to make them feel safe and cared for. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect both the pet’s routine and the owner’s space. I make sure feeding instructions, walk schedules, medications, and any special care needs are followed exactly as requested. I keep things tidy, provide regular updates with photos, and make sure your pet feels comfortable in their familiar environment. My goal in either setting is the same — to treat your fur baby like family and give you peace of mind while you’re away.

About: Hi! I’ve cared for pets, and made sure they were happy, well fed, walked, and comfortable as if they were my own! I’m flexible, organized, and focused on ensuring your pet is well cared for. Reach out to me for details on my availability and I’ll see what I can do for scheduling. This will help us ensure I will have plenty of time to care for your pet. I have plenty of space for walks outside, and many trails I can take dogs for longer walks. Nearby, we have plenty of friends who would love to play with your pet as well along with my supervision!

“Gracie did a wonderful job caring for Mila & Junie! She was attentive and spent time making sure their needs were met and they were cared for. She provided regular updates and eased my worried dog mom mind! She was very considerate of my requests and our routine for the pups. I was able to enjoy my weekend trip knowing that the girls were in good hands. I highly recommend Gracie for your house sitting and dog sitting needs! I’ll definitely be rebooking Gracie to take care of my girls.”

“Julie was terrific, and she communicated well with me the entire time. My dogs enjoyed her company. I highly recommend her, it was a great experience.”

“We had an unexpected trip, at the last minute, and Paola was willing to shorten her own trip to come and take care of our pets. I really appreciate that. She sent pictures of playing with out high energy dog playing fetch, he was very tired when we got home so I believed they played a lot of ball!”

About: Hi! I’ve been pet sitting for about 5 years, starting with walking neighborhood dogs and growing into house sitting and boarding. I’ve also had dogs my whole life, so caring for them comes naturally to me. I’m experienced with different sizes, personalities, and energy levels, and I always make sure every dog feels safe, comfortable, and loved. Whether it’s walks, playtime, or sticking to their routine, I treat every pet like my own and give them plenty of attention and care! I’m a college student with mostly online coursework, so I have a flexible schedule and am home often. I also care for my two fur babies daily, so pet care is already a big part of my routine! I’m available most days, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends, and I’m happy to work around your pet’s needs. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a clean, calm, and loving environment where pets can feel at home. I have two friendly dogs of my own and always make sure introductions are done safely and at a pace that’s comfortable for everyone. Since I don’t have a fenced yard, I keep dogs active and engaged with regular walks around my neighborhood and supervised time outside. I always follow your instructions closely, stick to your pet’s routine, and provide updates and photos so you can feel at ease while you’re away!
