Pet Sitting in Haw River

“Did a nice job with our kitty and sent some pictures so we could see how she was doing. Thanks for taking care of our shy kitty while we were away.”

“Lydia was great with our dogs. They were happy and playful when we got home. We could tell that she really spent time with them. She was very punctual and secured the house before she left. We have used other sitters and they were good but Lydia is by far our favorite.”

“Rebecca always treats our fur babies wonderfully. They enjoy lots of pets and play while she is there. She even brushes our dogs helping to reduce fur buildup while we are gone. Updates she gives are thorough and always reflect our animals individual personalities.”

“Destini provided excellent care for my 5 cats while we were away, demonstrating attentiveness, responsiveness, and punctuality during each visit. Not only did she go the extra mile, but she also assisted with taking out our trash and recycling. We're truly grateful to have found Destini for our family's needs!”

“Shelby cared for our 11 year old Puggle while we were away for a long weekend and he was a little under the weather. She gave him excellent care and was a great communicator. We received updates and fantastic pictures for each visit. She’s someone I would absolutely trust with him or any pet again. I highly recommend her!”

Mary W.

“Chazney did a great job taking care of my two kitties, one that needs meds every 12 hours. She was punctual, communicative, and took lots of great pictures so I felt comfortable knowing the kitties were in great hands. She also was attentive to the house while she was there with the kitties. Above and beyond care! I will definitely reach out again when a need arises.”

“Amber was amazong with my two cats Luke and Leia. They were really happy around her and Leia even flopped on her back to get belly rubs from her. That is very special coming from her.”

About: Hi, I’m LaLa! I believe every pet deserves Dog-Mom level care—the kind where they’re treated like family, not just a client. With years of experience caring for pups of all ages, sizes, and personalities, I pride myself on creating a calm, loving, and safe environment where your dog can truly relax. I’m extremely patient and gentle, whether I’m bonding with an anxious rescue, entertaining an energetic puppy, or tending to the needs of a sweet senior. I pay close attention to every detail, from their feeding schedule to their favorite belly rub spot, and I’m skilled at reading body language to ensure your pet feels comfortable and secure. You can count on me to be reliable, communicative, and respectful of your home. I provide regular updates, cute photos, and even fun paw report cards so you always know how your fur-baby is doing. Life can be unpredictable, and I do my best to be flexible and understanding when schedules shift. Most of all, I love building connections with each pet I care for—because to me, they’re not “just pets,” they’re family. 🐾 Im available Thursday to Sunday. On Thursday and Friday only I’m available after 5:30pm (due to me having a full time job from home). Saturday and Sunday I’m available all day 🙂 For any Drop-In visits or Walks I do require a complementary meet and greet before booking to ensure your pet is comfortable with me and their “home space” ❤️ Your pet’s comfort and safety always come first in your home. I take time to learn your pet’s routine, preferences, and any special needs before each visit. I follow feeding, walking, and medication instructions exactly as given, and always make sure your pet has fresh water and a clean, calm environment. I respect your space—leaving your home just as I found it—and keep doors locked, alarms set, and your pet safely indoors or secured outside as requested. I’m gentle, patient, and attentive to body language, especially with shy or anxious pets. You’ll receive regular updates and photos for peace of mind while you’re away.

“Kendric was the perfect dog walker for us! She was very communicative, loved on our two pups and messaged me if there were any questions or issues! We will be using her again in the future! Thank you so much again!”

“Essence was wonderful to my golden girl! She provided me with information about her visit and was patient with honey when she had an accident after getting excited. Definitely will book for future needs!”

About: Hi there everyone! Please scroll to the bottom and read our policy before booking! But before you go let us tell you about ourselves! My family and I have always owned dogs. I grew up with them and trained them all my life. My step mother even owns a rescue. So what better way to use the land of our family’s farm to also take care of other peoples dogs! We are located here in the northern part of Alamance County. Here we have 98 acres of land with several walking trails next to a flowing creek, a clean and swimmable pond with a shallow area for the small dogs, a gated outside area with 4 separate runners for the cool days with a nice breeze, and inside luxury crates equipped with barn doors and beds inside of them for all of our furry visitors to relax and feel right at home! From dog training to now dog boarding here at The Retreat we want your pet to have their own get away while you have your own get away! Currently I am a Realtor and own my Real estate business so I’m usually always working from home unless I’m running to show a home. While I’m out I have my wife and the rest of my family to cover my spot until a I return so your pet should always have someone there to care for them! Here your pet will always have someone to care for them so you can trust your pup to be in the best of hands. We also offer clip on air tags for your dogs collar while they stay here for extra safety and surveillance, separated luxury crates to sleep and eat in so they feel safe and secure at any time, and nothing but a stimulated environment where they can run and play as much as they want all within in 98 acres of fenced in land.

“Karen always takes excellent care of our cat Addison. She sends detailed updates and photos, and she's sensitive to Addison's needs and moods. We strongly recommend her.”

“Lindsay is the dog walker, sitter we have been hoping to find. She is responsible, dependable, she loves dogs and understands them. We don’t worry about a thing when she is taking care of our shepherd.”

“Gemma was AMAZING. I was already on vacation when I realized that I booked her on the wrong dates and she was still able to pivot and look after our dogs. We have quite the pack (4 huskies and 1 dachshund) and she kept our minds at ease with her detailed check ins and photos. The pups looked so happy in all the photos too. Gemma is very reliable and very kind. Highly recommend her pet services— we are already looking forward to working with her again!”

About: Growing up, my family relied on me to take care of our family dogs and when I moved out, I adopted a rescue dog of my own, Zuko. He’s a mutt and I adopted him when he was a very energetic puppy. I worked on training with him, learning basic commands, crate training, leash training, house training, and general behavior. He responded well to the training and now 4 years later, is super well adjusted, but didn’t lose that silly personality. I’ve dog sat 4 other dogs of friends and family in the past couple years. I had them stay over night with me, but usually I come to their house for dinner, potty breaks, and/or walks. I prefer this method so I can get out of the house and stay active! I walk my own dog Zuko almost every day, weather permitting and have lots of experience with energetic dogs with big personalities and I love it! I would love to be able to spend time with other dogs and help their owners with their busy lifestyle. I currently work from home as a Disney travel agent and set my own hours and schedule, so my dog walking schedule is very open! I treat my own dog with great care. I don’t have kids of my own, so he truly is my pride and joy and I know many other pet owners feel the same about their own. I really treat all pets like my own and many of my friends and family and acquaintances have trusted them to my care. You can refer to my references for more information!

About: I’ve taken care of each pet of every kind since I was about 14. My neighbors, friends, family, etc have relied on me to watch their sweet babies! I am currently a full time college student at East Carolina University studying elementary education. I am available for all pet sitting needs and would love to watch your pet! I have a fenced in yard and a sweet dog of my own who is very well trained and well behaved. If you have any questions please ask!

“Molly was amazing, she & her husband went above and beyond when there was a problem with my water service which was so helpful since I was in another country and had limited cell coverage for communication. I would definitely book her again!!!”
