About: We’ve been dog sitting for family and friends over the past 10 years. Enjoy walking, playing and relaxing with them. Great with puppies to senior dogs. We are big dog lovers, flexible with our schedule and can certainly work with your dog’s schedule. Being with your dog is our top priority. Our yard is fenced in and our home is dog friendly. We prefer them to be around us whether it’s out in the yard or in the kitchen washing the dishes. In your home, is per your instructions.
About: With a lifelong love for animals and years of hands-on experience, I’m here to give your pet the same care and attention I’d give my own. I started pet sitting and dog walking back in middle school and never stopped—it’s truly a passion of mine! I’m patient, active, and committed to making sure your pet feels safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. My dog, who passed away a few years back, was a trained service animal and the sweetest boy. Whether your pet is shy or full of energy, I’m here to meet them where they are and make them feel right at home. I am self employed and work from home with a flexible schedule so I have time to dedicate to your pups and kitties! I can typically accommodate last minute bookings. As stated prior, my dog (who has now passed) was a service dog and went through safety training. I learned a lot throughout that course about pet handling and care. I am active and fit and can work with with animals from the smallest of kittens to the largest of pups!
About: I’ve owned both dogs and cats throughout my whole childhood. I’m currently a stay at home wife and pet mom of 2 dogs on a military base! I’m walking distance away from 3 different spacious dog parks and have a massive yard your dogs can walk and play in. I also live on base with a veterinary clinic. I’ve always had a love for animals and treat them all just like family! I currently do not work anywhere and I’m a full stay at home wife on a military base in Havelock, NC. I am looking for another part time job, definitely somewhere close to my house so I’m never too far away from the pets! We have a spacious yard, perfect for long walks and play time on a retractable leash! We also have a covered dog pen for rainy days and dogs who don’t want to get their paws wet. I usually feed my animals once in the morning but can cater to any dogs needs and normal schedules! Water is always available along with toys, a comfy couch, and dog beds! I also have experience in medication if your dog takes pills I can give them those if/when needed.
About: Hi, I'm Lauren! I have done pet sitting and dog walking for my neighbors and friends since I was 10 years old, including high energy puppies and an elderly, blind dog in particular. I'm currently home from college for the summer and would love to take care of your pups! I have a big family so someone is always available to take your pet on walks or have playtime. I'm currently working part-time so I have plenty of time to care for your animals on weekdays and weekends. Plus, there is always a family member at home so your pets will never be left alone. I have one friendly labrador in the home who sleeps in her crate at night. I can easily crate your dog as well if needed. We do not have a fenced in yard, however, our home is in a perfect location for long walks away from traffic and games of tug in the yard.
About: I've been involved with animal rescue as long as I can remember. Taking in strays, rehabbing, and finding homes. I have worked with agencies and on my own and out of my pocket. I have written references available. I moved here from California, last year. I still have someone running my business in CA. I haven't worked since I arrived, although I signed up to volunteer with rescues. I'm pretty much retired now and I can't think of anything I'd rather do than play with fur babies. I have a chain link fence. 1/2 acre yard. I have a couple extra crates available. My dogs are very friendly, but I do want to get my clients and my dogs aquinted in a neutral place ie; dog park.
About: I have had dogs my entire life. I have a brand new home at the end of Taylors Creek on the water. When I built I had my work in animal rescue in mind. I have LVP flooring, doors to a private screened porch and top deck with a dog pool that locks or they can head down to a fenced in back yard. I do allow my dogs in the bed but I respect the rules of home as well. I am local and know all the dog hot spots. I am more than happy to bring your dogs for a visit while you are here on vacation or you are welcome to come to my home to visit. The horses of shack stand in front of my home for an extra bonus. If your dogs needs a bath I can do that to as I have hot and cold dog washing station. I work from home 24/7 and if I leave I normally take the crew with me. I also can crate if you so desire and have several. I have a fenced in yard. Two security gates. Cameras. I respect all rules from your home. I have every size crate you would need. I have a lovely collie that loves having friends over. I work from home and have regular dog play dates. We always are chasing a ball or frisbee and the dogs live going on boat rides. I have cameras, fenced in yard and dog crates so you would not need to bring anything but food. I respect owners house rules during visit.

Lauren O.
“Lauren is a very personable and responsible person that treats all animals as if they were her own. She has trained my dog to perform various tricks such as bowing, spinning, and handshaking. She would use her own personal time to walk or care for my dog even if she would rather relax. She is hard-working and lovable and would be a great caregiver for your pet.”
Janice Flores B.
“Janice is an amazing human being! She’s an awesome person in general, but when it comes to animals, she’s especially wonderful, because she loves them and cares for them each, and everyone of them as if they were her very own. She plays with them, she has fun with them, she cares for them and loves on them and if they need homes, she doesn’t rest until she finds homes for them. If you are in need of any type of pet care, you can rest assured that Janice will do a great job.”
