Maddi came through for us once again! She was an amazing dog sitter for Kaiser, providing him with chew toys to keep him busy on a rainy day. And when a stomach bug kept us out of town overnight, Maddi graciously agreed to drop in for an extra day! She added the extra fee through Rover, making it easy for us to pay! We were grateful for Maddi in our time of need! She is so great, thank you Maddi!

Andrea is absolutely amazing! We have a fairly big farm with lots of different animals. She took great care of everyone and made sure they had everything they needed and more. We’ve already booked her for our next two trips away from the farm. Thank you, Andrea!

About: I've taken care of dogs for about 5 years now. I have most of my experience from my own dog, but I've spent plenty of time around family and friends pets to know I can take care of both small and large dogs. I already do walks and runs with my own dog, so getting in some extra exercise with your pet is just fine! I'm currently a college student, so my schedule is a little wonky sometimes. I can do morning, afternoon, and evening check-ins on your pet during the weekday, and and free all day on weekends. I currently have more time in the mornings and evenings for any extra care your pet might need. It really depends on what kind of job I'm doing. If I'm doing a drop in, I'll make sure to give the pet attention (if they're around) while I'm cleaning up and feeding them, and will stick around to give them some play time. If I'm staying at the home, I'll usually be in an open area where they can relax and come to me if they want to play, while making sure they get taken out regularly. I'll usually be doing college work, so my break is their play time.

About: I am a mom to 4 high-energy medium/large breed dogs. I am no stranger to cleaning up accidents, administering medications, handling pets with reactivity, and fulfilling exercise such as playing fetch, tug, flirt pole, long walks, brain stimulation (keeping up with training/commands) or simply snuggling if your baby is low activity. I have been a self-employed residential cleaner for over 8 years and create my own schedule allowing me the flexibility to care for your pets and mine! I am so grateful for all my clients who trust me to help take care of their home and I am hoping to build trust with pet parents as I would love to transition into pet care full time as it has always been what I am most passionate about. While I do have four dogs of my own, I am able to keep your dogs separate from mine at all times if requested and or necessary when boarding. I built my dogs their own apartment behind our house fully equipped with heat, ac, a bed, and doggie door leading to a fenced in area so your dog(s) does not have to be dog friendly and we are also child free so your dog can be the only baby in our home the duration of their stay! But if you would like for your dog(s) to have a playdate and a doggie daycare style stay that can be arranged as well!

About: Hi! My name is Kaeley, and I’ve been passionate about animals my entire life. I currently have dogs and cats of my own, and caring for them brings me so much joy. I truly love spending time with animals — their company makes me happy, and I treat every pet like they’re my own. I’ve been riding horses since I was 9 years old, and now with over 10 years of experience, I’m very comfortable working with animals of all sizes and temperaments. Growing up with dogs and cats has also given me lifelong experience in providing attentive, loving care. Whether it’s walking, feeding, grooming, or just keeping your pet company, you can trust that I’ll make sure they’re safe, happy, and well cared for. I’d love the opportunity to meet you and your pets! I work at Edinburgh Animal hospital but the hours are forgiving and if I need to I can bring the pet im watching to work with me with the parents permission of course. I would follow all directions given by the client. I will treat them as my own pets. I’ll always make sure the animal is in sight and is well taken care of.

About: Working dog trainer and vet med experience. Animal behavior has always been fascinating thing for me. I was also into falconry in my younger days. I currently train working dogs part time. I can work with your pet in whatever personal needs you need while board training. I don't crate, I let the dog roam around my house. I will burn their energy out daily while including training needs in the meantime. I just bought a house with a huge fenced in backyard and a barn. I live in the country so no city distractions. Although if you want socializing for your dog I will also give them the exposure.

Morgan did a fantastic job while my husband and I had to leave the state to attend a family emergency. We have a 3 year old husky and 2 year old lab both full of energy. She sent us pictures of how the boys were doing as well as letting us know when our husky was getting a lil separation anxiety and not really eating. Our lab was on 2 medications and Morgan made sure our lab was staying on track and when our lab ran out of salami to hide the pills in she had purchased some with her own money to make sure he was okay. 1000% recommend and in the future will definitely look to see if she is available.

About: I’ve been a lifelong dog lover and have years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of different breeds, sizes, and personalities. I grew up with my own dogs, including a German Shepherd named Brownie and a Pitbull named Peanut, who both lived long, happy lives to 12 years old. Taking care of them taught me the importance of patience, routine, exercise, and lots of love. In addition to caring for my own pets, I have experience dog sitting for multiple dogs at once. I’ve cared for up to six dogs at the same time, managing different breeds, energy levels, and needs while making sure each dog gets attention, supervision, and proper care. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, so I focus on keeping dogs safe, comfortable, and happy while their owners are away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just keeping them company, I treat every dog like they’re part of my family. Please Note: I Travel With My Children If you are interested in Housesits. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy being around dogs and staying active. I work from home with a flexible schedule, which allows me to plan my day around walks, feeding times, playtime, and check-ins. This flexibility helps me give pets consistent attention and make sure they stay on their normal routine. Whether it’s daily walks or overnight sitting, I focus on keeping dogs safe, comfortable, and well cared for while their owners are away. When caring for pets, I focus on keeping them comfortable by following their normal routine as closely as possible. In a client’s home, I make sure pets are fed on schedule, have fresh water, get plenty of exercise through walks and playtime, and receive lots of attention so they feel safe while their owner is away. I also keep the home tidy and respect the pet’s space and habits. For walks and drop-ins, I make sure dogs get safe, enjoyable exercise while paying attention to their energy level, behavior, and surroundings. I always prioritize safety, including secure leashes, awareness of other animals, and making sure pets return home happy and relaxed. I treat every pet like they’re my own and aim to create a calm, caring environment where they feel comfortable and well looked after.

Brittany is awesome and she is my new go to when I need my dog looked after. I recently moved to the area and have been looking for someone to look after my dog when I have to travel. She kept in constant communication with me; provided photos and videos daily; and even picked up an Easter gift for him.

About: I’ve had dogs in my home my entire life and have always been an animal lover ever since I was a child! A fun little backstory about me...most teenagers get jobs to have money to go to the mall or whatever it is that they want to do, well my goal was to save up all the money I made and get my own puppy. That was one of the best things I ever did, I had her for 16 years. Other than having dogs all my life, I also have kennel technician and veterinary assistant experience. Before I moved back to North Carolina, I was working the front desk at a non profit animal hospital. I feel that I am a very genuine and good hearted person. I am willing to walk/jog/run/play fetch, honestly, I will do pretty much anything to make them happy while you’re away and would love to build a relationship with your fur baby!! I’m a stay at home mom, so my schedule is pretty open every day!♥️. It’s just my 4 year old and I until about 4pm Monday-Friday, so as long as your fur baby is good with kids anytime from early morning until then works! After 4 I have open availability without him (incase your baby isn’t good with kids). My weekends are generally 100% open so I’d love to help in any way that I can! Hope to hear from you!! 🤗 I can care for your pet(s) in my home or yours. Whichever you prefer. I promise I will always make sure that they feel comfortable, loved, and happy.

About: I like to take care of puppies and give them tons of attention. I like to go on lots of walks so your pet will have tons of exercise with me. Pet care fits into my daily routine by taking my one year old puppy on walks every day. I work part time but I still find time to care fore my pets. I take care of pets by hanging out with them in the same room. I make sure they have plenty of water and are fed when needed.

Jennifer was great with our high energy dog. She walked her beyond expectation and kept her company during the nights. She communicated every day while we were away, sending us pictures and screenshots of my dog’s workout in the Tractive GPS app we shared with Jennifer.
