Pet Boarding Hickory

About: I have 2 dogs of my own currently one is 8 and one is 10. I currently work at a doggy daycare and boarding facility. i work 5 days a week less than 40 hours and i’m taking care of animals when im on and off the clock so it seems fitting to become a sitter and walker:) I live in a home with an unfenced 2 acre yard. we have a runner in case the dog isn’t leash or off leash trained.

About: I have been watching dogs for 15 years. I have experience giving medications, walking, boarding, house sitting, aggressive dogs, all breeds, and dogs of all ages! I am a registered nurse taking a break from nursing and have flexible availability to watch your pets! I am home most of the time aside from errands! I have a clean home, clutter free and no carpet. I have a yard for your pets! Cages available if needed, LOTS of toys, extra bowls, I allow dogs to sleep on the furniture or in bed if approved by owners! I’ll love your pet like it’s my own!

“Such a wonderful caring pet sitter. I will be using his services again.”

“Denisse was wonderful taking care of my Golden Retriever for over a week. She responded quickly to messages and my pup seemed very happy with her.”

“Scarlet was fantastic! She was a livesaver when an unforeseen work obligation came up last minute and I needed someone to watch my fur baby quick! She kept in touch with me frequently with pictures, and was very patient and flexible when I needed to stay a day longer than planned. It was great having the peace of mind knowing my little baby girl was in great hands while I was out of town. I absolutely recommend her services and wonderful care for your 4 legged fur babies!!”

About: Hey! I provide a personal and a home away from home style pet care experience for my boarded fur babies where there is even a built in 4 legged friend here for them to play with (my sweet dog). For my drop in clients I provide loving attention and basic necessities during my visits while your pets are in the comfort of their own home. I provide text message updates and photos throughout their stay and during my drop ins to keep you informed and give peace of mind about your fur babies while you're away. I will have plenty of time to spend with your pups so they get that personal care regularly throw the day in the comfort of a home setting verses a boarding facility. I also have a dog that loves to play with others. When I am home dogs are free range through out the house and play time with my pup or snoozing on the couch. Your pups can also enjoy nice walks outside or some lounging time in the fresh air on the tie out.

“My dog was really well-cared for by Nickie. She even put up with her anxiety when the storms rolled through. We’ll definitely use Nickie to watch our dog again.”

“Best dog sitter we've ever had. Our dog seemed to love all the other animals and Tanya gave our dog Bummer extra attention. Bummer may have found a second home. Thank you so much!”

“Samantha did a great job boarding and caring for our Labrador Lizzie (8 years old and walks on 3 legs) while we were on vacation. We received pictures each day of Lizzie and she appeared to always be having a good time. I fully trust Samantha with our Lab and I'm definite we will be using her services again in the near future. On a scale of 1 to 10 I would give Samantha a 15+... Her communication was great and I always felt Lizzie was well cared for and in safe hands.”

“Amy was so great for our hyper beagle while we out of town on vacation! Quick responding and keep up to date information and photo. She is very friendly and welcoming!”

About: What sets me apart as a sitter is the hands‑on experience I’ve gained caring for my own dog with special adult needs, along with years of looking after friends’ dogs of all ages and personalities. I understand how important individualized care is — whether that means managing routines, providing extra patience, supporting mobility needs, or creating a calm environment for anxious pups. I’m comfortable with senior care, medication routines, and adapting to each dog’s unique preferences. Because I’ve lived it myself, I treat every dog like family, offering attentive, one‑on‑one care that keeps your furry family safe, comfortable, and genuinely happy while you’re away. Because I work full time from home, I’m able to maintain a consistent daily and weekly routine that allows me to give your furry family plenty of attention throughout the day. My schedule offers the flexibility to handle feeding times, outdoor breaks, play sessions, and individualized care. With my fenced yard and steady at‑home presence, your dog enjoys a safe environment, regular supervision, and a calm, predictable rhythm that keeps them comfortable and cared for while you’re away. In my home, dogs enjoy a calm, structured environment with plenty of attention, thanks to my full‑time work‑from‑home schedule and fenced‑in yard for safe outdoor time. My own senior dog sets a gentle, steady rhythm in the home, which helps visiting dogs feel relaxed and comfortable. I follow each pet’s routine closely—whether that means scheduled feedings, medication support, mobility assistance, or extra patience for anxious pups. With consistent supervision, personalized care, and a secure space to play and unwind, I make sure every dog feels safe, supported, and truly at home.

“She did great with my puppy husky. She's knowledgeable about dogs. Most of all she communicates with you everyday about your pet, so you'll know how he's doing. I will definitely keep her as my dog sitter from now on.🙂”

About: I’m a lifelong dog lover and experienced dog owner who regularly helps care for my neighbors’ dogs in addition to caring for my own Labradoodle, Farley. I’m comfortable with feeding, walking, playtime, basic routines, supervision, and giving dogs plenty of attention and affection. I understand how important it is to trust the person caring for your dog, so I take pet care very seriously. I pay close attention to each dog’s normal routine, personality, comfort level, and any instructions provided by their owner. I especially enjoy providing a calm, home-based environment and personalized care rather than a high-volume setting. Caring for dogs is already part of my everyday life. I spend a lot of time at home with my Labradoodle, Farley, and my routine includes walks, playtime, feeding, companionship, and lots of attention. I have a flexible schedule and prefer to keep my bookings limited so each dog can receive personalized care and supervision. I provide a calm, home-based environment with a fully fenced approximately 1/4-acre yard where dogs can safely enjoy outdoor time, play, and exercise. I also have a doggy door, which allows dogs who are comfortable using it to move between the house and yard easily. I supervise dogs closely and follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, walks, medications, routines, sleeping arrangements, and any special needs. I keep my bookings limited so I can provide plenty of individual attention and make sure each dog feels comfortable and secure. In a client’s home, I respect their routines and house rules and provide the same attentive care, including feeding, walks, playtime, companionship, and updates.

“Cosmo had a few of his happiest days with Jessica, Doug and their family. He bonded with their pups and got to play chase and football on their spacious property. He’s already asking to hang out with Sky and George, their two pups, again! Jessica and Doug went out of their way to keep me updated with pictures. I felt at ease the whole time.”

“This was the first time I have left Buddy for a week. Amanda was amazing with sending updates with pictures When we had our meet & greet Buddy was so comfortable with Amanda and Her house. When I picked Him up, Buddy seemed like He didn't want to leave, which is Great for Amanda and was a little sad for Me lol. I would recommend Amanda for all your needs, She is now family to Us and Buddy.”

“5/5 I'm very picky about who watches my baby, but Veronica and her family have shown her soooo much love. Veronica was very informative in the services she provides and sent me several pictures and videos throughout the stay. Thank you so much Veronica. I will keep you in mind for future stays.”

“Caitlin was amazing with my girls while I was out of town! They took to her right away, and I was totally at ease knowing they were well cared for and getting lots of love. You can tell she genuinely cares about the pets she watches and treats them as if they were her own. Communication was seamless and Caitlin made the whole process stress-free - I would absolutely book with her again and recommend her to anyone looking for a caring sitter!!”

“Our dog was very comfy at Camilla’s! Our dog gets anxiety easily, but Camilla made her feel right at home. We appreciated Camilla’s regular photo updates and quick responses. We will be using her again the next time we’re in town.”
