“Probably the best person I’ve ever met with my dog! Super understanding, my dog is ALOT of work sometimes with his weight and she is fantastic! I highly recommend her for any services you may need because she is great! If I could leave 10 stars I would!”


About: I became a pet owner at a very young age, probably 4 or 5. My first fur baby was a cat who lived to be 20 years old! I have also had many dogs, ranging from Retrievers to Saint Bernards to one really wonderful Great Pyrenees. When I was a teen, I visited my Grandmother in New York where a cute, sick little barn kitty took a liking to me. I ended up flying him home with me in a picnic basket, nursed him back to health, and loved him for many years. While growing up and into my adulthood I have often taken care of neighbors' and friends' dogs and cats while they were away. I now have a 5-year-old kitty who we've had since he was a kitten. He is the king of the castle and an essential member of our family, and honestly, I envy his life most of the time! I understand how precious our pets are and would be truly honored to take care of yours just as they were my own, surrounding them with love, patience, and attention. I currently work in Real Estate and have the flexibility to work with your needs Tues, Thurs and Fri during the day. The more notice I have the better I can get my schedule aligned with yours. Other times/days may be available by request and circumstance. In my current profession, I am trusted to enter others' homes on a regular basis. I will treat your home and pet(s) with just as much care, caution and respect as I do for every client.

About: Hi my name is Mike, I have over 30 years of experience with animals. I own five dogs currently. I have had cats, birds, fish, bunnies, snakes, ferrets and iguanas. Heading out? I’ll keep tails wagging, wings flapping, and whiskers twitching! From pups and kittens to bunnies, birds, and reptiles—your beloved pets get all the care, cuddles, and playtime they deserve while you’re away. 🐶🐱🐰🦎🦜 What sets me apart? I don’t just “watch” pets—I bond with them. 🐾 Whether your pup needs help with potty training or your senior cat needs extra TLC, I’ve got the patience, experience, and big heart to meet them where they are. I’m confident with all kinds of animals—wiggly puppies, shy bunnies, talkative parrots, and even your bearded dragon with attitude. 💬🦎 From giving meds to managing routines, I treat each pet like they’re my own (spoiled and adored!). My goal? To make your pet feel safe, loved, and entertained while you’re away—so you can relax knowing they’re in good paws. 🐶🐱🐰🦜🐢 I work from home, I have a very flexible schedule. I’m available everyday. Late nights or early mornings are ok with me. I’m here to help. I care for your pets in their comfort zone—your home! 🏡🐾 I stick to their usual routines so everything feels familiar: same feeding schedule, favorite toys, walks on their route, and belly rubs in their go-to spot on the couch. I keep things clean, cozy, and calm—whether that means scooping litter boxes, watering plants, or giving meds with a treat and a smile. 💊🍖 Plus, I send updates (with adorable pics!) so you never have to wonder how they’re doing. Your pets stay happy, relaxed, and loved until you’re home again. ❤️🐶🐱🐰🦎

About: I am an elementary school teacher with 16 years experience. Due to the long hours at my job, I was unable to have pets for many years. Over the last three years, we adopted a dog and a cat, and I renewed my love for animals. I was a nanny, babysitter, and pet sitter throughout high school and college. I’m looking to get back into the pet-sitting business and spend time with your furry friends! I look forward to spoiling your pets as I do my own 🐶 Over the summer I am not working, so I have total flexibility for your schedule! During the school year, I am available on weekends and some weekday evenings/overnights with advanced notice. My main living area is pet-proofed and gated to keep your pet safe. I have multiple crates if needed to provide a safe enclosure for dogs of all sizes. Our neighborhood has gravel walking paths, grassy areas, and plenty of room for walks. My own pets are a Labrador retriever age 2.5 named Cookie (spayed female) and an American shorthair cat named Mochi (neutered male). All vaccines are up to date for my animals and we use preventative flea and tick medications. I have taken classes locally in basic puppy care and have access to a vet on demand service.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs small and large since 2016 for family friends and neighbors. I have a real passion for animal care and my utmost priority is to make sure the well being of your pet is at an all time high. I’ve also gone through online training courses for dogs and cats detailing proper care techniques. I recently started looking for a job but I will update this when / if it changes! Friday mornings are my only recurring schedule block currently. I can tailor the visit to how best it is to fit your pet’s needs. On visits where a potty break is needed, they will be taken out and given treats and lots of love with some fresh water. On meal visits they will be given their meals and fresh water with lots of love as well. On overnight visits I follow the directions exactly and leave the place and the pet(s) looking and feeling better than when I arrived.

About: I’m new to this but I am trustworthy and more than willing to learn! I’ve had dogs and cats growing up, so do not fret! I am free after 8am everyday! I would love to help you in any way with your precious babies and keep your mind at ease. I do live in an apartment with my own cat and my daughter. Our apartments have a fenced in dog area but I would take them on walks on a trail so they would get real exercise, or around your neighborhood! If you needed a pet sitter I would treat your home like it was made out of porcelain. I love animals, they bring a huge sense of love and friendship and that’s what I want to give back to them.

About: I’ve been an animal lover my whole life, from hermit crabs to horses. The last 15 years I’ve gone from volunteering with animals to now rescuing and owning 2 dogs and 2 cats of my own. I’m a resident physician but I’m currently on a research year so my schedule is pretty flexible for home visits or walks- but also for boarding given that I have a very animal friendly environment in my own home. I have a three bedroom, split level house with a large backyard and access to a huge field on the other side of my yard for things like fetch and walks. I have 2 energized and social dogs in my own home who are very friendly, love cuddling and playing fetch. I also have 2 cats who do well around my dogs, one younger one that plays along with them and one older one who is still social but keeps more of a distance from play time.

About: Dogs that will be in my care will be loved and taken care of as if they were my own. I have a lot of experience with animal care, 5+ years. On my free time I like to volunteer at the Wake County Animal Shelter as a dog walker and dog cuddler. I’m here for you and your dog😊 Im free throughout the weekday but mostly on the weekend. I always have my phone on me so if you need me, I’ll be there. I’m open to all client requests and requirements for caring for their pet. While in your space I’d respect it as if it’s my own.

About: With over 25 years experience caring for pets of all sizes, I’m a passionate animal lover dedicated to providing a comfortable and fun environment for your furry family members while you are away. I have 2 dogs of my own and 1 cat and enjoy being around animals. I can’t wait to meet you and care for your furry family member. I have plenty of time to care for your pet as I have a flexible work schedule and would be able to work most days. I can easily come to your home and care for your furry family member. I can take them on walks or feed, water, and just play with them in the comfort of your home.

About: I take care of the dogs more than 10 years. I don’t have opportunity to have a dog now because of work. But I really want to spend more time with them. I am currently working 8 hour’s shifts. I can play with your puppies and take care of them on the weekend or in the evening or overnight I will walk, feed and play with your pet. I love to play with dogs. We have a friendly neighborhood for that. The most important I will love your pet!

“We booked Leigh last minute, and she was incredibly accommodating! Her communication was excellent from the start, making the entire process smooth and stress-free. She was friendly, professional, and clearly loves dogs. Joey had a great time on his walk, and we loved receiving so many adorable photos along the way! We highly recommend Leigh and will definitely book with her again. Thank you for taking such great care of our pup!”


About: I have had dogs my whole life and have always had a special place in my heart for them. I recently volunteered to raise a service dog for Canine Companions for Independence, where I cared for and trained a puppy for a year and a half for their organization. I have also volunteered as a dog walker at multiple animal shelters. I have a black lab named Kenny, and a rag doll kitten named Phoebe. They are always my priority and I will give your furry friends the same love and care that they deserve. I am a graduate student at UCF, and my class schedule consists of 2 classes in the evenings on Wednesdays and Thursdays for the summer. Therefore, I am pretty flexible for the time being! The safety of your pet will be my utmost priority while they are in my care. After walks I will be sure that your pet is safely home waiting for you, with doors locked, and a little note to tell you about your pet’s time with me:)

About: I follow instructions and care for all animals like they are my own. I can care for your typical fur babies such as dogs and cats, but am also comfortable caring for reptiles, amphibians and other aquatic animals. I understand that all animals have different personalities, but all require patience, understanding and love. I work part-time during the spring and summer so I have extra time to help. I get up early, so if your pets like to be up and going around the crack of dawn, look no further. If you have night time creatures or animals that don’t like the heat, I can also accommodate that as well. I treat everyone’s home with upmost respect. I keep you informed throughout the day of all activities to make sure you know that your loved one is taken care of.
