“Kristin did a great job sitting for our dogs. She spent several days with them and they had a great time. The dogs seemed very comfortable with her and we were happy she was able to spend lots of time with them. She provided updates multiple times per day including pictures of them around the house and around the pool. We came home to happy and stress free dogs. We would definitely book her again!”


“Jeffery is absolutely terrific!! We have utilized his services for 2 years now. He has not only cared for our pet, but has also been our house sitter during our trips. We have found him to be a trustworthy and honest person who provides much love and attention to our fur baby. Our pet is a family member whom we love dearly and had a tough life prior to adopting us as his new family. Due to that, we were very concerned with finding someone who would provide the same type of love and attention as he receives from us. I am very happy to say that Jeffery has provided all of that to our pet and can ensure that he will do the same for your pet. I can't thank him enough for helping us to enjoy our time away, by caring for our pet in a way that allows to relax, knowing that he is in good hands.”


“Teresa was so great! She gave Bella lots of good walks and cuddles and was great about communicating with us and sending us lots of photos and updates. We would recommend her 100%!”



“FROM DEMI C.- We kept our fingers crossed and tried a pet sitter for the first time to stay at our home. During the initial Meet & Greet, when our usually timid-of-strangers feline fur babies came out on their own to see Dominique—I felt she was the right choice. Loved her attention to detail! Loved the free-flowing communication during the time we were away. I had complete peace of mind while we were on our beach vacation! FROM SHEILA C. - She's truly a cat whisperer. Very attentive, constant and frequent photos & updates on how our babies were doing. Also, very professional. We liked her immediately after the interview. We are now her clients! We plan to leave a generous tip.”


“Melanie did a good job with my boys (Persian cats). She sent daily updates and pictures as requested! We came home to some instant pictures that she had taken and left for us which was very sweet!”


“Karena was a wonderful pet sitter for us! Our usually skittish chihuahua mix even came to like sitting by jet and getting pets. Her calm caring energy really helps anxious dogs! Karena also sent pics and videos throughout our booking which was very reassuring. Overall, we highly recommend her!”


“We enjoyed having Taylor watch our Dewey boy. She was great with communication and updates about our pup. She was very timely as well which is appreciated! We will certainly use Taylor again!”


“Orima is so incredibly sweet. I left both of my pitbull babies with her overnight and she kept me updated and informed every step of the way. Both of them looked incredibly happy and well adjusted in all of the photos she sent. I will definitely be booking with Orima again.”


“Will absolutely contact Mackenzie the next time we plan to go out of town. Our cat, Cleo, needed a companion for the week and Mackenzie was the perfect fit. We got pictures every day of Cleo which were so heartwarming. Upon return, Cleo (and the house) were clearly well taken care of. Cleo was even looking for Mackenzie our first night back so I know she'd be happy to have her again too!”


“My husband and I had never hired someone to watch our dog before. We had a great experience with Janet and will use her in the future! I would highly recommend her!”


“I was dreading leaving Sophie for 7 whole days, but she did great with Caitlin! Sophie is an older kitty with IBD and has a particular schedule to follow to keep her stable, which makes me nervous to leave her. I’m so thankful Caitlin was willing to care for her, and also able to stay with her at night, as Sophie hates being alone. It really put my mind at ease knowing someone was there! Thanks again :)”


About: I have been lovin and livin with animals ever since I was a little girl. I used to live on a mini farm in 2005 and loved helping my parents out with the animals. We had goats, sheep, horses, fish, dogs, and cats. I even started riding horses when I was 4 years old! Unfortunately, my mom had a stroke and we had to move & sell a lot of the animals. Because she is handicapped, I have helped my mom with the animals since then. In 2020, I moved to Virginia to completely my bachelor’s degree in Strategic Communications at Liberty University. While in college, I walked dogs and pet sat for people. This was really exciting for me because I wasn’t allowed to have my dog with me in the apartment. From April-December of 2023, I traveled solo across the east coast of the U.S. by pet sitting for people, and in return, I got a free place to stay! This was an incredible experience and I made so many furry friends along the way. I am now living in Charlotte, NC and I work remotely as a Social Media Manager (which means I get to do my work in my fuzzy slippers whenever I want). My schedule is super flexible and I’m almost always available for last minute (I like to say spontaneous) plans. Please reach out if you have any questions! I work remotely so my schedule is very flexible. I usually go to the gym in the morning and then work whenever I want. But I am willing to adjust my daily schedule to fit your wants and needs. I think the most important part of owning any pet is to make sure they feel loved (aside from food and water of course). I love to spend quality time with pets and I am willing to take your pets on car rides and on plenty of walks. It’s very important that our pets aren’t cooped up inside with nobody to play with. Where’s the fun in that?!

“Logan was so great with our dogs and we would definitely book him again! One of them has resource guarding issues and Logan was confident in handling any aggression that might come up. He spent tons of time with them, walked them and played outside a bunch too. He asked how much communication / how often we wanted updates and sent tons of great pictures. He even printed out a few for us to have for frames, which was so thoughtful and sweet! I could tell our dogs had a great time with him and I felt great about having him there watching them. Logan also made sure to ask questions during the meet and greet and made me feel confident that he could handle any issues and that he cared for my dogs. I would definitely recommend him to others!”


“Veronica took amazing care of our 3 girls! Our 2 dogs needed extra care and she made sure they had what they needed. I greatly appreciated her friendly demeanor and kindness and we look forward to working with her again!!”


“Jada did a wonderful job with our boys! She was very attentive and had great communication. While we were away she sent us plenty of pictures and made us feel at ease. Would definitely recommend and will book again in the future 😊”


“Sarah was amazing!!! She loved on my Murphy just as I do. She was so attentive to him and also kept me informed of how he was doing which relieved a lot of my anxiety. Will definitely have her take care of him again!!!”
