About: My family has always had dogs and cats! In the past we've also had bunnies, birds, fish, hermit crabs, and a bearded dragon lizard. I am also a pet-loving mom to 3 human kids and we currently have a hamster, dog, and a cat. I've cared for family and friends pets as needed. I am very dependable and trustworthy, and can provide the care that you need for your fur babies when you aren't able to. My reliability will ensure that I will show up and provide the services you need. I currently own my own small part-time cleaning business, which allows me the freedom to work my schedule around your pet sitting needs. I am typically available most days and weekends. I do have 2 older kids who sometimes like to help. I care for my client's pets and treat them as if they were my own. The safety and well-being of your dog and/or cat is of utmost importance to me. I'll be sure to follow your pet care instructions and keep you updated as needed. I'd love to schedule a meet & greet to find out if we're a 🐾PAWfect match for each other!
About: There are very few times in my life that I haven’t owned a dog. I grew up with dogs and my husband and I currently own one dog- a big lovable knuckle head who will love to meet your dog. We have a fenced in yard with plenty of opportunities for play time. I both currently work from home, so I am able to dedicate a lot of time and supervision to your dog! I have always had a family dog growing up. I have a lot of experience with dogs from all walks of life - puppies, geriatrics, to hands on health needs. My dog Gus is very friendly and loves to play. He is very open to visitors and new friends! Please feel free to contact me at any point if you have any questions. I work from home 3-4 days per week so I have the capability of full time supervision and frequent potty or outside breaks. I work a normal 8-5 job. My back yard is fully fenced in so no chance of escape. We also have a back door that leads directly to the back yard. I have two dogs of my own I care for so adding an additional dog doesn’t change much for me so long as your dog isn’t nervous around big dogs. I have a flexible work schedule that allows me to host dogs at my house or go for walks. I have flexibility over the days I have to go in to the office. My two dogs are my first babies - spoiled rotten. They are couch surfing, bed snuggling, snack eating, playful boys that always invite other pups to join in on the fun (if allowed)

“I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again, Angela has been such a blessing in my life! She’s dependable & thoughtful. I have no doubt she loves my dog Wallace as much as I do. God led me to her, I just know it!”
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and trained a few now. I’ve watched and walked many varieties and sizes including labs, golden doodles, frenchies, and border collies. I work from home and have some availability from noon-1, when I’m not walking other dogs. I am available as soon as 4pm most week days and all day most weekends. I’m very active and looking forward to walking dogs more often. I always assess my environment whether walking a dog or letting them out to go to the bathroom. I always make sure the dog has what it needs and there are no safety concerns before leaving.
About: I love all animals, but dogs are my favorite! I raised a miniature schnauzer for 15 years (RIP Dooney). I now have a senior rescue named, Layla Grayce. I’ve volunteered at many animal shelters and have fostered dogs as well. I will love your fur baby just as they were my own! Thank you for trusting me and allowing me the opportunity to look after your fur baby 💕🐶🐱😊 I work remotely from home. This flexibility allows me to make myself available as needed for your pets needs. I will honor your pups schedule for all feedings, walks, and potty breaks. Layla would be a great companion for your pup as she is gentle and calm. At bedtime, I can crate your pup or allow them to roam my home. I will give them the attention they deserve while doing my best to make sure they feel safe and at home. I’ll also take photos and provide frequent updates while I care for your fur baby :)
“Sarah took excellent care of my dogs. The whole experience was easy for me and even better than I had anticipated. The daily photos were wonderful. They obviously love her now, which is always nice for me when I travel.”
About: I have always had a strong love and compassion for animals, especially dogs. I have a small dog myself and have trained him all on my own. I know how much my baby means to me and how I’d want someone to care for him, so I would provide nothing less for your baby! I am an energetic person that gets so happy to earn an animal’s trust. I keep myself educated on pet wellness and am able to assist with anything you or your baby will need! I work full time but am very free all day on weekends and evenings for walks/stays! Since graduating college I am looking to do something to bring me more activity and fulfillment. I love caring for animals so this is a great option for me. I live in a nice neighborhood by myself with a good sized dog park! There’s plenty of room to walk a dog and also have a sweet dog that gets along with others!!
“She was absolutely amazing with all my fur babies. We work such long hours and we’re scared to leave our new puppy home alone for so long and she made us feel so much more comfortable and her feedback was always so informative! Will definitely book again!”
About: I have been caring for the pets of friends and family for years, and my family has two dogs! I have cared for pets with a wide variety of temperaments and needs, including one of my own dogs who has a history of reactivity. I am a student-athlete home in Winston for the summer, which allows me the flexibility to build my schedule around pet care needs. I am available most weekdays and weekends and can perform frequent check ins. When caring for pets in your home I prioritize keeping your pets routine consistent and following instruction on feeding, walk routines, medication and anything else as closely as possible!
“Elise was great with our dog and super responsive throughout planning and while caring for her! She kept us updated with lots of pics and was willing to come visit beforehand to go over care instructions. Would recommend!”
“Brooke was amazing. Her communication was great the entire weekend. I appreciated how she treated my Ryder like she was her dog every visit. From keeping my dog dry clean with the heavy rain to her feedings and medications being administered, I could not ask for better care. Her pictures and visit notes were so detailed they brought me joy while I was working knowing my puppy was in great hands. I will definitely be rebooking with her when in need again.”
“Wish I could give more than 5 stars because he deserves it. My dog was well cared for and ate his food. Even my normally shy cat liked him, which is a huge testament to him.”
“She went above and beyond in every way when it came to dog sitting our puppy Mia. Always on time, took her time with Mia, and went out of her way to make sure her needs were met. She did so great that our dog is gonna miss her! Glad I didn’t go with any other option. Brooke is a true blessing!”
About: I volunteered at Forsyth Humane Society for 3 1/2 years. I have worked with many different breeds, big and small. I have 1 large boy, 3 medium sized girls and 1 small girl, of my own. I am in the process of becoming a certified dog trainer and should be complete with my training this summer. I have experience working with dogs with special needs, behavioral issues and other specific situations that require special attention or instruction I own my own business, so I make my own schedule. I can be flexible. I currently have time in the mornings or late afternoon/evenings for drop in visits I have multiple crates for dogs in my house. I also have kennels outdoors for my dogs to play during the day, which are covered. I will be sure to follow any instructions you may have for your pet. I will ensure to establish a connection with your pets so that they become familiar with me and comfortable and take the time to learn things they do and do not like or activities that they may enjoy doing.
“Tricia has walked my dog for the past few weeks and is wonderful. Very communicative, on time, and very kind. My dog takes so well to her and I’m so grateful for the extra help during the week.”
“Makai was great! He took such great care of our dog while we were away. He was super personable and always made sure we were updated on how she was doing. We will definitely be booking again!”
About: I've got over 15 years experience pet sitting, dog walking, and working in kennel environments. I've cared for dogs, cats, chickens, sheep, horses, and everything in between! I have 3 dogs of my own who love to meet and play with other dogs. I have special experience and a soft spot for senior pups who may need meds or have other special needs. I will love your furbabies like they are my own. I work from home 3 days per week and usually have weekends off from my full time job. I have a fully fenced yard with a dog door so as long as your pup gets along with my dogs they will be able to roam my house and yard freely all day when I am home. My pups are a mix of active and lazy/cuddly. My yard is fully fenced with special care to block any would-be diggers or jumpers. Dogs are crated when I am not home or cannot watch them. For dog walks, I can accommodate meals and medications if needed along with let outs and walks.
About: I’m a dedicated cat owner of two adorable cats and understand how important routines, litter box monitoring, feeding schedules, and daily updates are for pet parents. My childhood dog passed away last year, but he was an 110 lb German Shepherd /Alaskan Malamute and I would walk him daily, so I am no stranger to big dogs! I will make sure to send many update pics 😊 Use my code below for $20 off your first Rover! https://www.rover.com/sit/audref10358 I currently work a 9-5 but am off at 12 on Fridays, so I am available after work for walks and drop-in’s as well as anytime Friday after 1 and anytime on the weekends!
