Cat Sitting in Hot Springs

About: I've taken care of dogs since I was five years old. I still distinctly remember the breeder of the first dog I ever owned - a chocolate lab named Ginger - looking me in the eye after seeing I was apprehensive about the dogs and telling me, "Son, some day this dog will be the best friend you ever had." Ginger and I went everywhere together. I've had dogs and cats virtually my whole life, and the animals love me. While I am employed full time, I work in a hybrid setting that includes roughly 3 remote days per week, so I can be pet sitting on site and developing as close a band as I can to alleviate the babies' separation anxiety. I aim to please - if you'd prefer for your fur baby to be crated at night, then I will make sure s/he does that. My only job, other than to make the babies' experience as smooth as possible, is to follow the directions laid out by the owners.

“So happy Rosaria was available for my last minute booking. I will definitely be using her in the future she’s so kind and sweet to my dogs they loved their time with her. She went above and beyond letting them play out all their energy.”

“I truly don’t have enough words to describe how wonderful our experience with Alex was. We were on vacation with our fur baby, and from our initial meet-and-greet to the thoughtful picture updates he sent during his visit, everything exceeded expectations. He even went out of his way to come to our cabin and walk her while we were out exploring. If you’re looking for someone in the Asheville, NC area, I highly recommend him!”

“Julie is reliable and a great communicator. She has been flexible when our work or travel schedules change, we are so thankful we found her to love on our fur babies.”

About: I have had dogs in my life since I was 3 years old and have always had a passion and love for them. I currently have 15 dogs myself (5 are rescue/fosters). I previously worked for an animal rescue that has had all types of dogs (and other animals) including small & large breed dogs, special needs (seizures, diabetes, amputees), escape artists, etc. I'm also a certified Positive-Reinforcement Dog Trainer through Catch! Dog Training Academy. I would love to meet you and your dog and help with any of your needs! Walks, Drop in Visits, Watching them while you're away on vacation. I know how wonderful it is to have peace of mind while you're away from your babies and they will always be safe with me! :) I'm a small business owner (Dog Collars, Leashes, Etc.) with a very flexible schedule to easily fit you and your pet's needs. I can be available on most days or times as needed. I want to provide all pets with the love & care that they require. It is so important to me to provide a safe, calm, and enriching environment where your dog can be their best self.

About: I started working in boarding kennels straight out of high school 13 years ago. I did that until I got into dog grooming 6 years ago. I’m looking to get back into the passion of caring for all sorts of dogs not just cutting their hair now that I’m home full time. I have experience in administering medication, and any special dietary needs. I have a two year old daughter, Laeton. She’s in daycare during the week periodically & My availability is pretty flexible. I look forward to meeting you & your fur babies soon 🤗🥰🐶🐾 I am a stay at home mom, looking to make some extra money, i have stepped out of working a full time job to be home with my two year old daughter because daycare is unfortunately unreliable so , I'm home about 80 percent of the time. I will feed / water them twice a day walks 4x a day. I have a field beside my house , I live in the country. I am also available to pick up dogs and take them on walks , I’m all about taking pictures so I’ll definitely blow your phone up with pictures while your baby is in my care.

“Karmyn was absolutely wonderful for our drop-in visit! She was so thorough and attentive — sent great updates and pictures of all the dogs, made sure everyone was happy, and even left everything spotless. It’s such a relief knowing our pups (and our home!) were in such caring hands. We’ll definitely be booking with her again! 💜🐾”

About: My dog is one of the central priorities of my life, and I understand how important it is to have caretakers that you can trust! I would be happy to take your dog on a walk, a hike, or to the dog park or groomer. I'm an avid runner and would love to take your dog along! Whatever you need, you name it! I am currently self employed so my availability is extremely flexible. I’d be happy to spend time with more than one pet at a time and spend the night. I don’t mind administering medications or adhering to any special needs or restrictions they might have. I’d be happy to be your regular dog walker and/or sitter, or do irregular drop-ins, and to look after any other pets you may have. Please don’t hesitate to ask any questions! I’ve been off Rover for a while because I was working at a pet sitting company. I work part time, so I have a lot of time to spend with your pets! My schedule is flexible and can adapt to your pets needs. I like to stick you any routine that you already have set, and send daily updates. I like to have contact info in case I have any questions.

About: Just like caring for my daughter, I care for my dog just as well. And if I’m caring for your pet, chanced are they are being absolutely spoiled and will be worn out by the time they are returned to you. I am great at training and could have yours doing new tricks by the time they are returned. I can even groom/ nail trim on occasion if needed, just ask. I understand our pets are our family and like me, you’ll probably worry about them staying with a complete stranger. You’ll worry about them from the second you leave them with me until you get them back. But I promise I’ll care for them as they are my own. I’ll send photos frequently as I I know this eases worry. I do require you provide a crate in the chance wi leave the house. Your welcome to check in on them anytime without worrying that your bothering me. I work part time at a school so I am available to allow pets to relieve themselves and even get some energy through the day. I would care for a pet the way the owner cares for them. I wouldn’t want to change the pts daily routine so keeping them on schedule and following the woners pet rules is how I work.

About: I have taken care of animals all my life, from my own to even cleaning horse stalls. Have experience owning chickens too! Our pets need love and attention just like we do! I will talk to your loved ones, play, walk and feed them. I work from home during the day, if your pet would like to hang out in my office during the day, I do short walks on my breaks. I am also available to stop by in the evenings for walks and feedings. Weekends I’m usually always available, let me know what you need and we can see what works for both of us, to make sure your loved one gets the very best care. I can stop by for visits, take your dog on walks, send daily pictures and updates. If you need me to come by a few times a day, I am available for that as well.

About: My name is Olivia, I’m 29. I have extensive experience with animals as I was raised on a ranch and worked as an assistant to a horse trainer. I have always had dogs and currently am the proud pet parent of a very active German Shorthair Pointer named, Danner. I currently have a lot of flexibility in my schedule to accommodate your loved ones(pets) as I’ve recently graduated from school and moved so I’m not employed else where yet. I believe in the golden rule, treating others as I want to be treated so regardless of if I’m sitting in a clients home or my own I am mindful of behaving with integrity. I clean up after myself and the pets. I am kind and respectful to them and follow the instructions provided by the owners. I’m my family’s home there are kids and other dogs their that are also friendly to each other.

About: Growing up, my mom took in just about everything from scaled and slithering to four legged and prancing. I walked our dogs as well as dogs in my neighborhood for a little extra cash as a kid. I work a very open schedule, 7-8 AM leaving 8:30AM - 1:15PM open for me to hang out with your furry friends M-F or after 8 PM for their last walk of the night. Weekends are completely flexible! My dog and I go on three walks a day, so I know the neighborhood pretty, I make sure my furry friends always walk by the grass when we walk and walk in the direction of traffic so we see the cars coming. Your pets will always be on a leash when they’re with me!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs & cats since I was 10. I’ve helped numerous friends, neighbors, and family members with house sitting, dog walks, and pet care. I am a PA student on clinical rotations so I have a lot of flexibility. I am currently a second year PA student on clinical rotations so I have a lot of flexibility to take care of your fur babies. I live in an apartment so I would prefer to take care of your fur baby in your own home but I am flexible to other arrangements.

About: I have always loved and spent time around dogs, mostly, but I care deeply about all animals. I am patient and compassionate with them in a way that I think many others are not. Most recently, I’ve had tons of experience taking care of my own two dogs, Pepper and Toby. I also went through a rigorous training program with them, alongside their first owner, my partner, that immensely improved their behavior. I look forward to speaking with you and meeting your furry friends! I have lots of time off with my current job, so I will be able to be flexible when it comes to fitting pet care into my schedule! I am a very methodical and detail oriented person who can follow any possible instruction related to pet care. I will treat all of my clients’ pets like they were my own!

“Maite was amazing. She posted photos of our Pango and reported back to us if anything did not look right with Pango, he had been limping for a while and she right away reported to us when it was getting worse. We will certainly recommended to anyone.”

About: I have always had a passion for animals. Growing up, my house was always full of dogs and cats! I worked at a dog rescue in south Florida for a year and went to school in Colorado for Veterinary Technology. I have been working a busy, small animal hospital in Colorado for the past two years but have decided to move closer to family. I am so happy to be back in the North Carolina/Georgia area and look forward to taking care of your pets! I have also volunteered and animal shelters and wildlife rehabilitation centers. I have helped care for sick dogs, injured dogs, pregnant moms, and even newborn puppies! I am honest and reliable and love what I do! I am currently self employed so I have plenty of time to give your fur babies the love they deserve! They will love the treats and attention I will give them! I do not currently have a fenced in yard, but I am always excited to go for a nice walk! I also love going for hikes if your doggie likes that as well! I do have a large crate at my home if that is needed.

About: I've been house & pet sitting for many years. I'm very mature, responsible, and dependable. You can count on me. I love animals but don't have any pets because of my traveling lifestyle, so I love getting to bond with little cuties all over. I am a dance/movement teacher as well as a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner (a body-based trauma therapy). I work from home on zoom these days, so I am around a lot to give love to your pet. Some of my loves (besides animals) are dancing, traveling, photography, art projects, hiking, being in nature, and fixing up Scooby (my Honda Element that I've turned into a "Hotelement"). I've traveled all over the world until COVID hit, but since then have traveled across the country twice and am so appreciating the beauty of my own country. I am vaccinated and am very careful about COVID as well, so know if I'm in your home, I will be taking good care. I'm happy to take care of your pet in any way you need. The thing I have the hardest time with is saying goodbye to the little ones when it's time to go! I work for myself part-time on zoom (so I'm home a lot), so I set my own hours. This way I can work around the needs of your pet. I love cuddling and playing with pets. If it's allowed, I love having them up on the couch with me when I watch a movie, and don't mind them sleeping in my bed at night.

About: I love all animals and love giving them the care and attention you do! If your dog is up for it, I'll take them for a run or to the dog park near my house. Getting outside and running around are very important if your dog is able. As are snuggles, of course. I have a flexible schedule and am happy to do whatever your pup needs. I have a year old Aussie-Hound mix pup also and she loves to play with other dogs. She will be with me most of the time and is a great partner for old or young dogs. I think communication is key, especially in watching your pet! To ensure trust and allow you to rest easy, I'm happy to text and send photos throughout my time with your sweet animal! I feel that it's an honor to be trusted with your pet. I work full time but have flexibility in my schedule to be home with your pets, take them on walks or hikes, play, feed, and snuggle, of course. I live on a private spacious farm with lots of rooms for dogs to run and play. My pup loves other dogs too. Your pets safety and care is the upmost importance!

About: Since I was 16, I have been the go to pet/home sitter for the church I grew up in. Word spread quickly of my reliability and soon, it became a full “part-time” gig. I’ve cared for birds, cats, dogs of ALL sizes, reptiles, fish, mice and lots of other gerbil sized fluff balls. Along with classic domesticated animals, I’m also familiar with caring for a handful of farm animals such as; chickens, goats, and horses. I’m currently working in the wonderful world of Wilderness Therapy. This means I work 15 days in the field and then have 13 days off. During these 2 week periods of free time, I would be honored to care for and get to know your pets! I’m primarily offering housesitting and drop in visits as I have 2 feline friends, Chloe and Noir, at home that are wary of “strangers”. I will spend as much time at your home with your furry child as you’d like, even staying the night if you’d prefer. The mornings and afternoons are dedicated to the doggos, specifically going on walks or getting some exercise! I am a reliable and trustworthy character that is honored to have this opportunity to snuggle and play with your hairy loved ones.
