“She was great with sending updates of my dog. She also picked up all my dogs toys and put them away for me so the house looked cleaner then I left it after a very long day.”


“Richie was amazing! He was so so good to my dogs and kept me updated. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a responsible person who clearly really loves animals.”


About: Caring for cats and dogs is second nature to me. Every animal is unique, and learning each pet's habits and personalities is both interesting and rewarding. I have lived in Raleigh most of my life and I am familiar with the local animal hospitals and shelters. I am close friends with several veterinarians, and I am also a certified in CPR as a RECOVER Pet Rescuer. I am available most days with very short notice, and any day with a week's notice. I stain and repair decks during the warmer months, but the schedule is very flexible. I am available morning, noon or night. Animal care is dependent on the pet. I would follow the owner's instructions and rely on my extensive knowledge of cats and dogs to provide the best care possible.

About: While your pets are in my care, they will be treated as if they were my own. I will assist you in training your puppy to master the basic commands: sit, stay, and come. I am retired so your pet care is my first responsibility. During the summer, I will walk in the morning with potty breaks in the afternoon if it's too hot. During winter, if the weather doesn't permit driving, I will contact you and ensure that as soon as I can drive, I will be there to give your pet much-needed potty breaks and playtime. For more detailed availability, please see my public calendar https://calendar.app.google/1EpS26QNofEFAmsH7 Your pet's safety is my #1 concern. With that in mind, I will only walk when the weather permits. I will give them time to take care of their business and plenty of play time when the weather does not permit a walk.

“Brittney was great! She was very kind & responsive & receptive to the needs of my myself & my dog Laila! Laila can be challenging to walk and Brittney stepped right up to take care of her when I needed it last minute. I would highly recommend her for your dog care needs!”


“Great job! Thanks again for helping us out on such short notice. I especially appreciate you taking one for the team and walking him in that monsoon the other day 😉. You will definitely be my first call next time snafu and I need a hand. Thanks again ❤️❤️”


About: I have been pet sitting ever since I was 14 for neighbors and family friends. I have had pets for my entire life and I am comfortable caring for any type of pet. I currently have a dog, a cat, and a leopard gecko. I'm currently enrolled in college courses at Wake Tech, but I can easily work around your pets needs to make sure they get the best care. I also work part-time, but I have flexible hours. I am free anytime during summer and other school breaks as well! I have experience with younger and senior animals so I can easily adapt to your pets needs. I am good at building trust with your pets and I have experience working with several different animals.

About: As a family who adores both dogs and cats, we've dedicated over 8 years to teaching our son the importance of pet care responsibilities. Now, with our son entering high school and seeking to learn work ethic and financial management, we see pet care as an opportunity for him to earn and save. While I'll handle mornings and afternoons during the week, my son will join me in the evenings and weekends. Rest assured, your beloved pets will receive the same love and attention as if they were our own. I currently have a small business from home and my son is 14 and is in highschool. I'm available to stop by starting at 7:30 am and in the afternoons and in the evenings and weekends my son will join me. My schedule with my home business is pretty flexible affording me many breaks throughout the day. When caring for your pets, we will prioritize respecting your home and personal space. We understand the importance of maintaining cleanliness and orderliness while ensuring that your pet's needs are met. We'll pay close attention to what makes your pet comfortable or uncomfortable, whether it's their preferred toys, feeding schedule, or favorite spots to relax. By being attentive to these details, we aim to create a safe and nurturing environment where your pet feels at ease and happy and comfortable with us.

About: I have been around dogs of all ages since a very young age. I helped train my childhood dog Rosie when I was seven and from them on out, I was deemed that dog trainer of the household! All of the dogs I trained received awards for best in their class. I am comfortable walking dogs of all breeds and sizes. One of my best friends has a 90 pound golden retriever who I get to help her walk while she’s at work. I have never met a dog that I didn’t form a special connection with. I have been able to make friends with dogs within five minutes every single time. All of my friends call me a dog whisper because of it. I also should note I have helped give dogs oral medications! I currently work part time so my schedule is pretty flexible throughout the day. I am able to adjust my schedule based on your pet schedule. I’m an avid coffee drinker so if you ever need me to take your pet out for a pup cup run, let me know and I am more than happy to do so! Let me know what is best for you and your pet so that I can make the best experience for both of y’all! I love getting to spend time to play with animals in addition on going on walks with them. Let me know if you have Escape artist and Any precautions you want me to take to make you and your pet feel the most comfortable!

About: I won't just care for your pets. I'll care for them, and make sure they have all the attention and affection they deserve! I've grown up around dogs and various other animals. I adopted my own dog, Gator, from the local rescue group Saving Grace. My lifelong compassion for animals has given me a wide range of care experience. My care experience includes: - Senior care - Puppies 6 months & up - Medication schedules & administration - Basic first aid - Separation anxiety - Thunderstorm anxiety - Large dog breeds (Rottweilers, Great Danes, Great Pyrenees, Anatolian Shepherds, etc) - Basic obedience training - Livestock guardian dogs - Various farm animals (horses, chickens, goats, etc) - Reptile & amphibian husbandry I try to tailor my care for every pet and client, making sure that their unique needs are met. I also offer daily text and picture updates, as well as pre-booking meet and greets! I'm currently working part-time, so my schedule is super flexible and open. I am open on most days, and typically available from 10am - 7pm. I carefully take note of what care the client needs me to provide, as well as ways for me to safely engage with/entertain their pet.

About: I have dog-sat, cat-sat, and walked dogs of all ages and sizes since I was a kid, for friends, family members, and neighbors. I am willing to travel outside my town to provide services. I am also very comfortable with caring for more exotic animals, as I grew up spending my summers learning to ride horses on a farm with goats, chickens, pigs, rabbits and the like. Rural locations are very acceptable to me, as I have no phobia of insects or snakes. I have plenty of time every day of the week to care for pets, including early mornings and late nights. Many weekday mornings I will be unavailable for up to 3 hours total, usually from 8-11 AM. I also work part-time Monday evenings. I can care for your dogs just as I do my own, with plenty of exercise and attention as needed. I am used to “moody” animals that may want some space, and can keep less social pets safe on walks in busy neighborhoods. I am also very comfortable being as hands-on as necessary with pets; I can crate/collar/bathe as needed.

About: I have taken care of animals off and on since I was seven years old. I love animals and have had many - in my childhood home I have three dogs and two cats. I have one cat right now but I plan on getting more animals in the future. I love large dogs to tiny ones. Because of my schedule I cannot have a dog of my own - which is why I would love to care for yours when you are busy. This is my way of having a dog when I can't due to school and other responsibilities. It is the closest I can get right now so I would be honored to care for your furry family members. I work from home and my work schedule is flexible so I have the ability to decide when I work and when I do not work. I would love to keep your furry companion company, I have not lived with dogs in a couple of years and I do miss it so they will have my complete attention.

About: My family raised me to love and respect animals of all kinds.. but I am not a fan of the reptile family (sorry!). I helped train a family dog during my high school years and became a foster mom/adoption advisor for a rescue in 2006. I have helped about 30 dogs find their furever homes! Personally, I have 5 dogs and 2 cats in heaven, and 3 dogs here with me now. I do provide pet sitting services for friends and neighbors with dogs, cats, and furry caged critters (i.e. guinea pigs, bunnies). I am experienced with dogs of all ages (puppy to senior) and varying temperaments (i.e. fearful puppy mills rescues, timidity with hearing/sight challenges, incontinence) and use positive reinforcement for training. I am currently unemployed, but have worked remote since 2020. I am out and about almost daily throughout the week, but usually not away for more than 6 hours at a time. NC state law prevents unlicensed daycare or paid boarding in private homes. See www(dot)ncagr(dot)gov (slash)divisions (slash)veterinary (slash)aws for more information. When providing drop-in services, I will do my best to honor the requests of the pet parents.

“Mae is reliable, compassionate, and passionate. She has a genuine love for animals and an effortless understanding of their needs. She didn't just walk with my dog, she engaged with her.
