About: I am so excited to start watching your pet. I have loved animals of all kinds all my life. I know how hard it is to leave your pet with just anybody especially a kennel.

I have 1 dog who loves playmates, I am home most of the time. I can take your dog outside for excercise. I live on acreage with a mile long driveway. there is no traffic. About this sitter: No matter where you roam, there is truly no place like home. I offer pet care in my home but if you and your dog would be more comfortable, I will come to you. Whether it's visiting your dog or cat just for the day, taking it on a walk or maybe spending the night with it, I am happy to do as little or as much as needed. I will love your pet and treat it like it was my own. Why I love dog sitting I have owned a dog of my life. I love any and all breeds. I worked for a veteranarian when I was younger just so I could spend more time and learn about dogs. Meet my pets I have 1 dogs and 2 cat. My animals are very well behaved and love playing with other animals. About my yard I have 110 acres. Very quiet and wooded. Plenty of room to play fetch or play with my dogs. There is also a pond and creek for swimming. My experience administering medication Yes, I am comfortable administering medications. I have experience with animals from working for a veteranarian.

I live on 110 acres. Far from any busy road. My home is pet friendly. I have a pond and a creek and several trails in the woods.


“Recently starting using Rover and Terri has been the only dog walker I've used on this site. She has truly been amazing and definitely puts me at ease knowing that my Sadie is being taken great care of while I'm away at work each day. I cannot express how much I would highly recommend her service and do not know what I'd do without her!! My dog Sadie (and even my cat Milo) absolutely adore her and Sadie always has a big smile when Terri comes to visit her. Thank you so much Terri!!”


“Katirna was a lifesaver when we needed a walker while visiting Blue Ridge for a wedding. She was so sweet and patient with our senior dog to the point where she took him out twice just to accommodate his slow walking. We highly recommend her to anyone living or visiting this area!”

“Judy was friendly and accommodating to my schedule. Would definitely book her again!”




Piper A.

“Piper watched my 8 year old Papillon, Bailey, while I went to Hawaii on vacation. She was a very loving and kind pet sitter. I know this because when I ask him if he wants to go to Piper’s, he gets all excited and runs to the car. She took Bailey for walks, held him when it was thundering, and spent time brushing his fur. I would highly recommend Piper for anyone who needs a reliable and caring pet sitter. ”
