About: Hi, I’m Cas – I'm here to keep your pets happy, healthy, and stress-free at home! I’ve worked in animal shelters and as a veterinary assistant, so I’ve had hands-on experience with pets of all ages, temperaments, and medical needs. I’m familiar with canine & feline CPR and first aid, and I have extensive experience stabilizing critically ill and crashing animals. Whether your pet is perfectly healthy, managing a chronic condition, or just needs a little extra support, I’m confident and comfortable providing high-quality care. Some of the conditions I’ve worked with include diabetes (including insulin administration - and I'm a T1D myself, so you can trust that I truly understand the complicated ins & outs of diabetic care, hypo/hyperglycemia, and monitoring), kidney disease (including administration of subQ fluids), allergies (both skin-related and dietary), and senior pet care. I’m experienced with both oral and injectable medications, and I always prioritize a gentle, stress-free approach. I am a Fear-Free Certified professional, I prioritize minimizing stress for pets during interactions. I will work to make every experience as calm and comfortable as possible for your animal. When you entrust me with your animal companion's care, you can expect a reliable, gentle, and knowledgeable approach. I offer pet sitting in your home because I truly believe pets are happiest in the space they know best. I do my best to maintain their routines and provide comfort, enrichment, and calm companionship while you’re away. Looking forward to meeting your pet and making sure they feel safe, loved, and well cared for. Pet care naturally fits into my flexible schedule, which means I can fully adapt to your pet’s needs. Whether it’s early morning feedings, midday playtime, or scheduled medications, I’m able to provide care that matches your animal companion's routine without conflicts or time constraints. The most comforting place for an animal is their own home, surrounded by familiar scents, sounds, and routines. That’s why I offer in-home pet sitting—so your animal companion can stay relaxed and happy in the space they know best. Whether it’s curling up in their favorite sunny spot or sticking to their usual feeding schedule, I make sure everything feels just right while you’re away. My goal is to provide gentle, attentive care that keeps your animal comfortable and your mind at ease.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats all throughout my life, for 15 plus years. I will treat yours like my own while they are in my care! I am currently working Sundays-Thursdays 11pm-7am night shift, but I am available before or after those hours when needed! I will be more than glad to help! The services I currently offer is in clients home, pet care, dog walking and medication management. A lot of attention provided by myself. If needed, I will give them a bath also.

About: I have had and been around dogs my entire life. I can't think of a time I haven't had a dog in our house. Even once I was old enough to move out I had my Chihuahua that I rescued when he was just an 8-week old baby. I have a rescued lab mix that is 10 years old and a red Doberman that loves everyone. I have raised multiple dogs and have fostered for a Marion NC rescue Rusty's Legacy. I work full time at a factory, 8hrs, but am looking to make a career change to working with dogs, as they have always been a passion of mine. I think all animals should be treated like members of the family and I hope you will give me the opportunity to help take care of your special fur baby. I currently work full time as a factory worker from 7am-3pm in the afternoon so my availability is late afternoon to evenings. I'm sorry for any inconveniences. I will always be respectful of your home and of their space. I always want you and your pets to feel comfortable and that they feel safe.

“Ripley was incredible with my dog! I am very hesitant about leaving him, and she had excellent communication all the way through. She sent several pictures and videos and was so attentive in caring for him. She was absolutely excellent and so sweet and caring. I will definitely be using her again and would recommend her to anyone!!”


“Jess was amazing. She left my house tidy and provided lots of updates while I was out of town. I’ll definitely have her back to watch my doggies.”


“Dannielle was so good with my babies! She was super attentive and gave great updates with super cute photos! I would love to have her watch Kitt and Duck again!”


“Kelly is always so communicative with us and takes wonderful care of our 3 big dogs. We are so glad we found her!”


About: I’ve grown up with a family dog and have also watched neighbors/family friends dogs while they were on vacation. My family just recently got another puppy and I have also been helping train her! I am currently looking to make extra cash before attending medical school and would love to help out by watching your pet while you’re away! I am comfortable with crates and dog walking. I am very responsible when caring for pets and make sure they are fed when it is their meal time and take them outside every 2-4 hours. I also try to do 1-2 walks per day!

“Paige was wonderful! She communicated with us throughout the weekend and made sure all of our animals were taken care of. We can’t wait to get her help in the future!”


About: Animals are part of who I am. I have loved animals all my life. We own a small farm, so I can care for many different types of animals. I am a stay at home, homeschool mom. I can rework my schedule for pet sitting and drop-ins. We don't keep a busy home schedule. I will follow your care instructions whether or not I do the same in my own home. As long as I have instruction, I can follow it!

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is the genuine love and patience I bring to every animal I care for. I treat each pet as if they were my own, making sure they feel safe, happy, and understood while their owners are away. I have experience with everything from energetic puppies who need training and routine, to senior pets who require a little extra love, gentleness, and sometimes medication or mobility support. I’m also great at picking up on body language and behavior changes, which helps me quickly spot if something seems off. Whether it’s a long walk, a game of fetch, or quiet cuddle time, I tailor my care to each pet’s unique needs and personality. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine and something I truly enjoy. Whether it’s feeding, walking, playing, or just spending quiet time with animals, I make it a priority. I’m used to planning my schedule around pets’ needs—early morning potty breaks, regular exercise, meals, and any special care they might require. I enjoy being active, so daily walks or playtime are something I look forward to. Caring for pets doesn’t feel like a task to me—it’s something that brings joy and structure to my days. I always make sure pets feel secure, loved, and well cared for, no matter how busy the week gets. When caring for pets in my client’s home, I always make it a point to respect their space and stick closely to the routine the pet is used to. I follow all instructions for feeding, walking, playtime, and medication if needed. I make sure pets feel safe and comfortable by giving them attention, affection, and plenty of exercise or quiet time depending on their needs. I also keep things tidy—cleaning up after meals, litter boxes, or outdoor breaks—and always keep the home as I found it. If I’m caring for pets in my own home, I create a calm, pet-friendly environment that feels like a second home. I provide structure, play, and a lot of one-on-one time. I monitor their behavior closely, keep their space clean, and give them a cozy, secure area to rest. Whether at my home or theirs, I always focus on making pets feel safe, happy, and loved while their family is away.

“Hannah was a wonderful in-home sitter for our two dogs. She took care of all of their needs and helped them feel less anxious in an unfamiliar environment without their family members. She was kind, responsible, and attentive to our pets.”


“Emily was great! She really put my mind at ease while she was staying with our dogs. I received photos, videos and updates on food and medication. I highly recommend Emily for her knowledge of animals and experience.”


“Holly just did an overnight stay to take care of our active, deaf boxer, our elderly shitzu/lhasa apso dog and 2 cats. She did a great job taking care of them and making it a relaxing environment for them while we were away. We came home to some happy animals and we could tell they had a great time! We will be definitely be looking to have her care for them again!”


About: My specialty is dog training and being able to read dogs. I am great with dogs of all sizes. I have been training dogs since I was 16. I can teach any dog to use the bathroom outside, to only play with their own toys(no ones shoes get eat up in our house), to sit, not to jump, to lay down, how to walk on a leash properly, and how and when to play. If you are having any issues please let me help you and your dog grow closer. I also do nail dog bathing but no nail trimming. I will also let you know if I notice anything health wise in your dogs behavior or demeanor. I am able to do most drop in during the but evening if you will be away for an extended period of time and you would like a person to house sit I can stay over night but have to be home by 8am for my at home work. If I already have dogs booked for daycare or boarding I will unavailable for house sitting. But I can still do drop in care or walks. Unless you are wanting your animal to socialize with others. I keep my animals and yours separate. My animals are all vaccinated and they are also chipped and have been registered as service animals so we have a daily routine in our home of training and focus time then also we do a lot of playing and running and then my animals have their alone time with each other where they can act rambunctious, and have fun. I tend to feel like a normal routine is best for over anxious animals and animals owners because this helps everybody feel more ease and calmer.

Kristina Y.
“Kristina was a Godsend to care for my senior cat. She is dependable and caring. My kitty warmed up to her immediately and they became fast friends. Kristina always spent fun time playing and not just the basic care required. She was always available for short care 2 days or 2 weeks. You won’t find a more loving caring pet sitter than Kristina.”
