“Dana was the first sitter I used for my pup and she was absolutely amazing! My dog is very particular about things and she made sure his first day was fun and comfortable. He looked so happy and was throughly exhausted by the end of the day! Highly recommend!”
“Georgia has been enjoying spending two days a week at Alyssa and Spencer’s while her mom works. Alyssa and Spencer are great with Georgia and make her feel right at home from the moment she gets inside. We are so grateful to have found this wonderful alternative to larger doggy day cares for Georgia. Georgia doesn’t give too many details on all that she does while she is at Alyssa and Spencer’s, but on the mornings we go to their house, she can’t wait to get in the car and get there.”
About: I raised my Shih Tzu from 3 months up until I lost him to kidney disease on 9/11/2024. I walked him on a regular basis except rainy days (he hated getting wet lol), he was potty trained and free to roam the house while I was not home. Everyone ( family, friends, neighbors) knew how much I loved and cared for him. When he was in his last days from kidney failure, I stayed by his side until the end. I kept his routine the same. I pushed him in his stroller when he could not walk anymore. Administered him an IV daily to keep him hydrated when he barely ate and drank. I laid with him and held him until he let me know it was time for him to go to that Rainbow Bridge. As a newly retired person, I have plenty of time to give your furry friend(s) all the love, walks, and attention they need and deserve. Whether in my home or a clients, I provide a comfortable environment with meals, walks, playtime and companionship. I follow their routines as instructed to keep them happy and comfortable.
“Jeanette is such a joy to have your pet around! She is organized and detail. She provides updates and love to my Melo. Melo deals with separation anxiety but he enjoyed his time with her. He came home worn out and had a great time. I would recommend her to anyone with a little one.”
About: I am a teacher and someone who truly loves animals. Caring for pets brings me a lot of joy, and I always do my best to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while they are with me. Because of my work schedule, my availability is mainly on weekends. On weekdays, I can receive and drop off pets after 5 pm. During the day (8:30 am to 4:30 pm), I am at work, so pets would have a calm, quiet space at home during those hours. I always aim to create a warm, responsible, and caring environment where every dog feels at ease and well taken care of. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. As a teacher, I have a structured schedule during the weekdays, which allows me to plan ahead and provide consistent care. In the mornings, I can take dogs out for a walk, feeding, and some playtime before starting my day. After work, I dedicate time in the afternoon and evening for walks, attention, and making sure pets feel comfortable and loved. I’m also available on weekends, where I have more flexibility to spend extra time with pets, including longer walks, playtime, and companionship. During the summer, I have significantly more availability, which makes it a perfect time for vacation bookings. You can plan your trips in advance knowing your pet will receive dedicated care and attention. I am very responsible with routines, so I always follow feeding schedules, potty breaks, and any specific instructions from the owner to make sure their pet feels safe and at home. When caring for pets, my priority is always to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved, whether they are in my home or in their own environment. In my home, I create a calm and clean space where pets can relax and feel at ease. I follow their usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and rest. I give them plenty of attention, affection, and supervision to make sure they feel like part of the family. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I am very respectful of their space and make sure to maintain the pet’s normal routine. I understand that staying in their own home can help pets feel more secure, so I focus on keeping their environment consistent while giving them companionship, care, and attention. I always pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and needs, and I adjust my care to match their personality whether they are energetic and playful or calm and shy. I am also happy to send regular updates and pictures, so you can feel at ease knowing your pet is in good hands 💛

I would recommend Peggy if you’re in need of daycare!”

Lindsey was absolutely wonderful with our dog, Ember! She is incredibly caring, attentive, and compassionate, and it was clear from the start that she genuinely loves animals. She took the time to make sure my dog felt comfortable and cared for, and she kept me updated throughout the stay, which gave me great peace of mind. I could tell my dog was happy, relaxed, and well cared for when I returned. Lindsey goes above and beyond to provide excellent care, and I would not hesitate to book with her again. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving pet sitter!
Chlo’e got an abundance of attention she was herself. She can be a diva sometimes. Happy for her. She has a safe place when we are in Charlotte. Dana took her last minute for boarding care, for me to be with my new grandbabies. Forever thankful for that. Most sitters want notice before booking understandable, these trips last few weeks was not scheduled trips. Grandbabies were ready to make their grand debu. Thank you Dana.
This was my first experience with River. And I couldn’t have made a better choice than Christie. She made both Zuko and Daisy feel right at home. The puppies were excited to see her in the morning. She was great at sending pictures and updates. Made this experience very stress free! I will be booking her whenever I need it!
Georgia has been enjoying spending two days a week at Alyssa and Spencer’s while her mom works. Alyssa and Spencer are great with Georgia and make her feel right at home from the moment she gets inside. We are so grateful to have found this wonderful alternative to larger doggy day cares for Georgia. Georgia doesn’t give too many details on all that she does while she is at Alyssa and Spencer’s, but on the mornings we go to their house, she can’t wait to get in the car and get there.
I had such an amazing experience! He was absolutely wonderful with my dog and took great care of him. I’m very picky about who I trust to watch my pup, but he went above and beyond sending me pictures, keeping me updated, and making sure Mateo had everything he needed. He also has a nice backyard that my dog loved, and he kept him well-fed and happy the whole time. I felt completely at ease and will definitely be booking with him again!
