“Thank you again for such an amazing weekend with fur baby Mr Tip. With such short notice, you came to our rescue...and we thaaaank you🫶 He is sppiled rotten...the pictures speak for themselves♥️Until our next get away, stay blessed”


About: 40+ years’ experience caring for and loving dogs of all ages. I’m comfortable with puppies, senior dogs and even those in their prime with plenty of energy. I am very experienced with administering medicine if needed and caring for those with special needs. My husband and I have always had our own fur babies (toy and standard poodles), but do not have any currently. I am retired, so I’m always here to give extra cuddles, potty breaks, play time and walks. I really love their company! Tell me their routine while at home with you and I will do my best to ensure it stays the same when in my care. We have a large fenced yard with shade in a small and quiet subdivision. Our home is two story so plenty of room for playing and naps. If they do not care for going up stairs, I can stay on the main floor. Our neighborhood is perfect for walks. I have crates if they are crate trained and you prefer that, but that is not necessary. Being on the furniture or bed is fine with me too. I give extra special attention if they are nervous during a thunderstorm or other loud noises (such as fireworks on a holiday). I am very attentive and adapt to small things such as if they just don't like going out in the rain. I always send daily updates including photos, videos & text throughout their stay.

“Christianna and Cheddar were excellent hosts! After a bad Rover experience several years ago and waiting till the last min to board our fur baby, Christianna let us come over to see where Leila would be kept and introduce the dogs prior to leaving her there for a week. She has a huge fenced in yard, sent me lots of pictures and kept in touch daily to let us know how Leila was doing. She has reaffirmed my faith in dog watching strangers and Rover. Will definitely use her again.”


“Eric and his family were great for our Evey girl. Even went as fall as meeting first in order to ensure we were a good fit/uncomfortable with leaving her. Eric was extremely responsive when I would check in. Flexible on pick up and drop off times. Evey is happy to be home for sure, but no doubt was well taken care of by the family. Thanks!”


“We absolutely love having Cheyenne dog sit our energetic senior pup named Chief. She is commutative, flexible, understanding, and provides Chief with the same love and care he gets at home. Our pup enjoys playing with her pup and always feels right at home. I would highly recommend you utilize her dog sitting services! Thank you Cheyenne for your kindness and compassion. We appreciate you.”


“We dropped off our dog, Alfie, on our way to the outerbanks as our Airbnb didn’t allow dogs and we are so glad we booked with Kristin. Alfie had so much fun playing at their home and Kristin made sure to keep us updated with photos throughout the entire trip.”


“Kristin, James, & Hannah were amazing! They took such great care of Theo and sent me pictures and updates to let me know how he was doing. They were incredibly kind to both Theo and I. It gave me peace of mind knowing he was in great hands.”


“Courtney was amazing with both of my boys. She even worked with the one we adopted a couple months ago and gave me tips on what to do with him at home. She also sent updates on a regular basis which I loved and definitely put my mind at ease while I was away. Thank you so much Courtney!”


“Sabrina was awesome. When our dog Poppy had bad separation anxiety she gave her special attention and per our recommendation hand fed her a little chicken. This got Poppy calmed down and cooperative. Thank you for the extra effort Sabrina. You are the best.”


“Amy is the best!!! She took my reservation request super last minute and my dogs were well taken care of. We received pictures to let us know how they were doing with her. Will definitely use her again! Thank you Amy!!”


“She was incredible with both my labs. Very responsive. Sent updates of them playing. I felt totally comfortable with them in her care. She even exercised them on a treadmill on a rainy day. I would recommend her to anyone looking for dog care in the area.”


“Melissa was remarkably friendly, flexible, and communicative. We could not have asked for a better experience for us and our pup! She sent daily updates and pictures, which gave us peace of mind. Additionally, our dog came back extremely healthy and happy- it is clear that this was a vacation for her as well! If you’re looking for someone to provide fantastic and personal care for your beloved dog, look no further!”

About: I had two labs growing up that I was always around feeding bathing and walking and I currently have a girl pit mix who I’ve had since she was a puppy. I currently work part time so I have a lot of free time and am available anytime Sunday and Monday and anytime everyday after 4:30! I have a fenced in back yard with plenty of space to run around and I also have a friendly pit mix female dog she just turned one and loves having friends to play with!

About: I have experience working with animals of all breeds/species. I used to work for a boarding/daycare/grooming facility that was also connected to a vets office. I’m familiar with farm animals, dogs, cats, most small pets, and reptiles. I had my own horse for 17 years. Currently I have two German Shepherds who are both 4 years old- so I’m very familiar with working breeds! *I have experience with administering medications and animal first aid* I’m currently a stay at home mom and have full availability. More than likely my son will be with me for drop in visits- but for house sitting, arrangements can be made if necessary! With my two being a working breed we go on a lot of walks, and play a lot of fetch. But they also know how to be couch potatoes! Either way I can follow the lifestyle your pet is used to whether it be cuddles and lounging or going outside to play. I’m all about communication so pictures and daily check ins are something I like to provide!

“Amber and family were great with our pups! They are getting older and don’t travel well, I was nervous about boarding them anywhere so decided to try and find someone local so they would have a comfy home to relax in while we were away. I got pictures throughout our trip so I could see my girls and all the fun they were having and how well they were taken care of! Absolutely recommend!”
