About: I currently have two dogs of my own that i care for, attending to their everyday needs and ensuring their health and wellbeing. my pets are currently living with my parents, so they are cared for while i watch your pets! I I have experience caring for puppies; my parents’ dog had two litters. I’ve always had a passion for animals. Growing up we always had a variety of animals, dogs, cats, turtles, assorted fishes, guinea pigs, chickens, goats, horses, etc. i volunteered at a local zoo for 4 years as a teen where i learned how to care for all kinds of animals; assorted reptiles (tortoises, turtles, lizards, and snakes of all sizes), and other animals like hedgehogs, ferrets, opposums, owls, ducks, etc) by keeping up with their daily needs like cleaning enclosures, preparing diets, providing enrichment, etc. i have a very flexible schedule with open availability. i’m able to care for your pets at virtually any time you may need me to! Since I live with two dogs currently, I’m not comfortable caring for pets they are unfamiliar with in my home. I prefer to care for your pets in an environment they’re familiar and comfortable in, your home. I will ensure your pets receive all of the attention, care, and affection they need, while keeping them safe and following any special instructions you may have for me! :)
5. Hayley C.
“Excellent care, once again. We thank you, Hayley for your flexibility and communication. You took amazing care of our fur babies and the house was in perfect shape when we returned from our trip. Life has been hectic, and it was a breath of fresh air to know that our cats were in good hands while we were away.”
6. Heather E.
“Heather was on time, and took good care of our pups while we were at a wedding. We are from Indiana so it was stressful to leave our dogs in a rental for 6+ hours. Heather helped alleviate that stress by coming and taking the dogs for a walk, playing with them, and feeding them during the wedding. I would definitely recommend her services!”
7. Mike M.
“Mike was great and would highly recommend!”
8. Shannon C.
“Shannon did great with the dogs and sent nice pics and reports! Will definitely book her again! Tx!”
9. Alexandra D.
“We have requested Alexandra‘s pet sitting services on several occasions over the past year. During our first visit, and introduction to our dogs, she was very thorough and made notes of their individual needs. She has always been professional, trustworthy, generous with her time, and most importantly, compassionate and loving to our two dogs. I would highly recommend Alexandra to anyone searching for an attentive and devoted animal caregiver. I cannot thank her enough for all of the love and care that she has provided our pups during their time together. I am confident that anyone that engages her pet sitting services will quickly feel the same way.”
10. Sarah K.
“Sarah is a devoted dog mom and experienced dog-sitter. She takes care of a family's 4 dogs (and 2 cats) when they are on vacation, and is regularly called on to walk or dog-sit for friends and neighbors. Her love of and knowledge of dogs is apparent and instills confidence in those who trust her with their pets.”
11. Olivia D.
“Olivia has been taking care of my pets for more than 12 years. I have had both dogs and cats. She is very attentive to their needs and wants. She can administer medicine, clip nails and is amazingly loving with our furry family members. I highly recommend her for your fur family!”
12. Deanna W.
“Jax loves Ms. Deanna. He cannot wait to see her again!”
13. Katirna J.
“Katirna was fantastic taking care of our two kitties. They can be kind of shy but she was able to win them over. She communicated on a regular basis and sent photos too. I highly recommend her services and will be booking with her again!!!”
14. Robert S.
“Robert is a conscientious young man and truly loves animals. He has cared for both dogs and cats. He is trustworthy and is an excellent sitter.”
15. Eva L.
“Kathy is the ultimate dog lover. She takes great care of dogs and provides peace of mind to the owners. She will go above and beyond and do all that the owner requests. She's adept at providing medication if needed and any special food or treats. She handles any dogs in her care as if they are her own. She's also very reliable and trustworthy.”
16. Rachel and Mark B.
“Rachel and Tony are absolutely fantastic and I’m extremely grateful for the kind and loving care of my two cats. They go above and beyond - responding in emergency travel situations and even breaking out the sanitizer and vacuum during the initial booking when it was needed because of retribution by the girls. 😂 Since that time, the girls have grown to enjoy their time with Rachel and Tony so much that I am no longer punished for having left in the first place. Added benefit - reduced guilt. 😃”
17. Amanda C.
“So thankful that Amanda was able to keep a check on our pooch while we explored the Blue Ridge area! Don't hesitate to book with her if you need some pet love for your furry friend. :)”
18. Ruby G.
About: I enjoy dogs. I have had boxers, pit bulls, beagles, and a Belgian Malinois. Can help with basic commands. I also help a close friend with her dogs. I am currently staying at home and plan to start an animal behavior program soon. Learning more about dogs and their behaviors is interesting to me! I don’t have a fenced yard but I don’t allow my dog outside unsupervised. For walks, we always go on lease. My driveway is long and my pup loves to walk and run!
19. Jennifer J.
“Jennifer was amazing with my 2 old girls. I loved getting the pics and could tell they were happy. She took the time to learn their needs and personalities. I am so glad I found her.”
20. Laura P.
“Laura is a great pet sitter! I have a Great Dane diva and little rascally mutt and she is in tune with all their needs. Reliable ,responsible and caring are a good summation for how I feel when Laura is checking on my fur kids. Overnights and day visits .I know she has experience with cats and horses as well!”
