“April is awesome! She did everything we asked her to do and more. She did her best to set eyes on all 4 of our cats on every visit, gave them treats and sent us pictures. We were able to relax on our vacation because April was dependable and caring! She always let us know what time she would be visiting and she gaves us updates. We came home to a sweet thank you note and candy. We would definitely use her again!”


“Karmyn was awesome! I had a very last second change in plans and she came in to save the day. She was quick to respond which was really appreciated and so good with my pup. I’d definitely book with her again!”


About: Animals are my absolute passion! I have been around animals my whole life and will treat any dog like they are part of the family! I currently am a full time stay at home mom to my beautiful daughter. I worked 4 years at Junaluska Animal Hospital and have tons of experience worth fur babies. I am free any day or time to come to your house for let outs or walks! I am a stay at home mom and have plenty of free time to care for pets! I am very flexible so can work around your schedule! I live on a quiet street in the country, with a big open yard. It is not fenced in but we do have an underground electric fence if need be! I have 2 fur babies to keep yours company, and am home all day!

About: We have had horses, cows, chickens, goats, dogs, cats, guinea pigs, you name it. I am very good at communicating with them and making them feel at home. I am a nursing student in need of a good paying job with a flexible schedule. This opportunity seemed perfect to me especially since outside of class I don’t get to interact with animals a lot! My home is very safe. Our fields have fences around them and I would keep your fur babies on leashes if they need to be!

I know how wonderful it is to have peace of mind while you're away from your babies and they will always be safe with me! :) I'm a small business owner (Dog Collars, Leashes, Etc.) with a very flexible schedule to easily fit you and your pet's needs. I can be available on most days or times as needed. I want to provide all pets with the love & care that they require. It is so important to me to provide a safe, calm, and enriching environment where your dog can be their best self.

About: I've been taking care of animals from fish to Llamas since I was a young child. Nothing makes me happier than being with animals. I've been taking care of my friends' pets for so long, I figured I'd make help other folks too. I make my own schedule currently, so if we are a good fit, it's no problem to make my schedule work around what you need. I am more than happy to accommodate any specific requests and or needs that you may have. I trust your judgment and know how important it is to respect the wishes of the pet owner. Just let me know what you need and I'll be happy to do it.

“So happy Rosaria was available for my last minute booking. I will definitely be using her in the future she’s so kind and sweet to my dogs they loved their time with her. She went above and beyond letting them play out all their energy.”
