“My dog (Ruxin) really enjoyed his stay with Ashley and her furbabies. She sent pictures, updates, and took care of anything Ruxin needed while I was gone for the holidays. She even ran out to get him food when he unexpectedly ran out. He was exhausted when I got him back and misses his new friends!”
About: At Central Canines, pet care is more than just a service — it’s a personalized experience built on trust, structure, and love. With years of hands-on experience in both dog training and boarding, I go beyond basic care to truly understand each dog’s personality, needs, and behavior. Whether your pup is staying overnight or working on new skills, they’ll receive consistent structure, positive reinforcement, and one-on-one attention in a safe, home-style environment — not a crowded kennel. What sets me apart is the calm, confident energy I bring to every interaction, my commitment to helping dogs thrive both mentally and physically, and the genuine relationships I build with each pet and their family. Here, every dog is treated like one of my own. Pet care is my full-time lifestyle — not just part of my day. As a professional dog trainer and full-time pet care provider, my entire routine is centered around the well-being, structure, and happiness of the dogs in my care. From early morning potty breaks and structured play sessions to training lessons and calm evening wind-downs, every part of my day is designed to meet each pup’s individual needs. This isn’t a side job or a hobby — it’s my passion and profession. Your dog becomes part of my daily rhythm, and I treat them with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own. In my home, pets are cared for with a structured, safe, and loving routine that supports both their physical and mental well-being. Dogs enjoy plenty of outdoor time in a secure yard, personalized enrichment activities, and rest periods throughout the day to prevent overstimulation. For those enrolled in training, I incorporate clear, consistent guidance into daily routines to reinforce good behavior in real-life situations. Each pup gets one-on-one attention, daily check-ins, and plenty of love — all while maintaining a calm, balanced environment. Cleanliness, safety, and respect for each dog’s individual needs are always my top priorities.

“Jessica did a fantastic job caring for Cooper. We received regular photos and updates. She is conveniently located near I-95 and Lake Gaston. Drop off and pick up were easy and Jessica was flexible. I would highly recommend her as a pet sitter. ☺️”
About: I will be graduating with a Masters in Biology. I know a lot about animals and can handle whatever breed you throw at me, big or small. I have two fur babies of my own and would love to care for yours. I love being outdoors and active so your pet will have lots of exercise. I am a full-time student online. Your pet wouldn’t have to be in a cage at all because I am home all day! Willing to pick up and drop off. I am clean and detail-oriented. I have a personal vehicle to drive to and from your home. I can haul your pets to the local dog park, vet, or somewhere to go exploring!
About: I’ve had a variety of different size dogs ranging from Anatolian shepherds to puppies. I’m a very active and affectionate caretaker. If your dog loves walks and runs I think we’ll be very compatible. I am a college student who’s trying to manage school and a job. I’m usually free right after school and since I love walking and playing with dogs why not be a dog sitter. I keep everything clean and respect everyone’s household boundaries. Before anything I ask the owner if there’s a schedule on when the pets need to go outside, use the bathroom, and when to eat. If I’m not offered a schedule I try to make one.
About: Me and my wife love animals. We have a cat an a dog in our home country, the Schnauzer and the kitty from the picts. Sadly t they are not living with us right now. We love animals, we feel very comfortable around them and enjoy their company. My work is flexible son I can be with them anytime. We do not travel very often, so weekends work for us as well. My wife is a teacher so she stays at home after school. I work from home so I can always provide them company and walk them around anytime. There is a small backyard in our house. Enough for them to relax, walk around and enjoy a sunny day. We took care a big dog the other day and she enjoyed being there relaxing of course under our supervision!
