About: I have had cats and dogs in my life since I was little. I have always had a strong passion for animal care and showing all animals the love they deserve. I have put in volunteer hours at the local county fair within the barn, caring for and feeding the farm animals. I have also completed a trading course in farm animal care and veterinary medicine. I myself have two dogs and two cats and they are my whole world and I know your pets are yours too! They shouldn't have to be alone and you shouldn't have to worry about them, so let me ease both your minds! I am currently unemployed elsewhere so my schedule is extremely flexible. Mondays are the only day that I have personal events so feel free to message me for booking! I will first and foremost respect your home when I check on your pets, I am only there for the pets and whatever the pets need unless you specifically tell me otherwise for whatever reason. I will of course ease your pet if they seem stressed, take them out for necessary exercise and potty time, feed them as needed, administer whatever medication they may need at that time, and of course clean up any messes that could be made. I want to make sure they get proper socialization and exercise while they await your return, they won’t feel lonely as long as I can help it!

“Emily is great with my dog Roo! She is very easy to communicate with and does a wonderful job of keeping me updated, including pictures! I definitely recommend Emily!”

About: I really enjoy animals so much. I just do not meet a stranger when it comes to dogs and cats. Your home would be my home away from home. Im 54 years old with a 10 year old son. I enjoy teaching him about how wonderful each animal can be. I personally believe if you teach a child to love animals they will grow up to be wonderful people. I do not have a big home but it is ful of love. We treat all animals like they are part of our family. I can not wait to meet you and your family (pets).. This job is a test to see if i can make an income big enough to stay home with my son. . God Bless each and everyone of you.

About: Hi! I’m a Doctor of Chiropractic who loves helping people and their pets. I’m a recent graduate and new business owner. I have been watching and walking dogs for neighbors and family members (and my own dogs) since I was in high school I currently work part-time while I’m getting my business off the ground so I’m free most days and times to care for your pets and their needs. I can easily accommodate anything that you do in your own house with your pets. I can crate or not, I can walk and check up on them often.

About: My résumé includes dogs, cats, muddy boots, mystery noises in barns, and convincing animals that the thing they absolutely do not want to do is actually a great idea. I've learned that patience, consistency, and a pocket full of treats or a favorite toy solve most problems. Animals have always been a huge part of my world. On any given day, I might be caring for horses, spending time with my dogs and cats, or helping a nervous animal feel comfortable in a new situation. I understand that every pet is different. Some want a long walk and a game of fetch. Some want a quiet companion who respects their space. Some have very strong opinions about breakfast arriving precisely on time. I have experience caring for animals of all ages, from energetic youngsters to seniors who need a slower pace and a little extra patience. I'm comfortable with large dogs, multi-pet households, and pets with established routines that need to be followed carefully. Friends often describe me as observant and dependable. I pay attention to details, communicate clearly, and genuinely enjoy getting to know each animal's personality. Whether your pet is an adventure buddy, a professional napper, or a lovable troublemaker, my goal is to make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for while you're away. As a lifelong animal owner, I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets. I will treat them with the same attention and respect I give my own. I currently have flexible availability most days of the week and can often accommodate pet care requests around my existing animal care responsibilities. Caring for animals is already a part of my daily routine, so I understand the importance of consistency, communication, and showing up when expected. Beginning in August, my availability will shift as I start graduate school, and I will primarily be available on Saturdays, Sundays, and Mondays. I believe in being upfront about scheduling and only accepting bookings that I can fully commit to, so you can count on reliable care and clear communication. Every pet has their own routine, and I do my best to follow it as closely as possible. During drop-in visits, I make sure pets have fresh water, meals (if needed), potty breaks, exercise, and attention tailored to their personality. Some pets want to play, some want belly rubs, and some prefer a quiet companion who respects their space. For walks, I focus on safety, consistency, and making sure your dog gets both physical exercise and mental stimulation. I pay attention to weather conditions, energy levels, and each dog's comfort and confidence. I also keep an eye on the little things. As someone who has cared for animals for many years, I know that changes in appetite, energy, mobility, or behavior can be important. If I notice something unusual, I will communicate it promptly. In a client's home, I respect both the pet's routine and the household itself. My goal is for your pet to feel comfortable and cared for while you're away, and for you to come home to a happy pet and a home just as you left it.

About: I’ve cared for a wide variety of pets, including dogs, cats, and recently, ferrets—which I’ve been having so much fun learning about! I’ve grown up around dogs and cats my entire life and have spent the last 10+ years caring for them. I’m comfortable handling medications, special needs, and more complex daily routines, and I’m always happy to follow your pet’s usual schedule and care instructions. Whether your pet needs extra cuddles, plenty of playtime, or a little extra TLC, I’m ready to handle it all! 🐶🐱💕 I currently work for the post office 6 days a week and with my route i’m able to get off between noon and 1pm every day. I have plenty of time in my day to help your pets feel more comfortable without their favorite humans! I do not offer service in my own home, but i’m very happy to come over to your pets home. I plan to follow every instruction and routine that the owners leave for me. It’s important for me to accommodate each pets specific needs.

About: I grew up in a farm when I was little. I would feed the cows and the chickens in the morning. At the age of 7 I had bunnies and would take care of them. At the age of 8 I had my own calf as my pet her mother died so I fed her milk in the mornings. At the age of 9 I moved in with my dad and I started my dog loving journey. My love of dogs started with our first rescue her name was Nena. She was very playful and such a wonderful dog, that made me want to dogsit. I started dog siting at 12 and my passion for animals only grew stronger. I just now started my dog siting business again. I am currently in college for nursing. My free time is Friday through Sunday. I want to make sure all my attention is guided toward taking care of your dog which is why I dog sit Friday-Sunday. Your pets are normally kept in my room so that way my full attention is in them. I feed them according to their plan. From the time I wake up they will be taken outside every 2 hours to do their business. I also play with them if you bring toys. They have to bring their bed,food,food and water bowl. Toys are optional.

About: I’ve taken cared for dogs since I was a kid, sat since I was a teenager, and can provide your pup with the best care possible. I know dog training basics, so can keep up any training regimen you’re working on. I’m happy to give frequent walks, and even runs for energetic pups if needed. I also don’t work a normal 9-5, so your Fido will never be along for an entire day. I work part-time early mornings, every day, so for sitting I’m never gone for more than 5 hours. For daytime services I’m available anytime after 10am. I always ensure consistent scheduling for feedings and outings. I’m always early for walks and drop-ins, so no need to worry about flakiness. Glad to adhere to any other instructions, be they training related, feeding and care, or whatever else your pup needs. For energetic pups I’m happy to go for runs as well.

About: Hey there! I’m Katelyn. Thank you for considering me to take care of your furry companion(s). I have ample experience caring for and loving on: dogs, cats, horses, goats, chickens, birds, rodents, turtles and rabbits. This includes pups and kitties of all sizes, temperaments, ages and health statuses. I am Fear Free certified through my continued volunteer work with a local humane society. Fear Free is a nationwide initiative across the animal welfare community that offers online educational courses on handling fear, anxiety, and stress in dogs and cats through evidence based strategies. My time at the humane society consists of but not limited to: walking dogs, providing enrichment opportunities for the animals, assisting the staff with adoptions, and staying behind the scenes to tend to the back of the house tasks that keep the facility up and running. My approach is to treat each animal as an individual and get to know each other according to their unique personality and preferences. Positive reinforcement and enrichment opportunities are my jam! My experience ranges from dog walking to extended period pet sitting to fostering both dogs and cats to assisting behavior teams at animal shelters/rescues. I am also well versed in daily upkeep tasks required for barn animals. I’d be happy to elaborate upon request. I split my time between the Tryon, Greer, and surrounding areas. I work full time Monday-Friday in the veterinary industry in Columbus, NC. ***For house sitting bookings, I am able to watch your pets in your home only at this time.*** I believe animals thrive on routine and keeping their days as normal as possible when their person/family are away. Whatever their typical day to day looks like is how I will care for them! Safety is something I take very seriously and is of utmost importance.

About: I worked for a dog kennel for 2 years so I am familiar with a lot of different breeds and how to care for them! I work from 9 at night until 6 am so any time between that I am available to make sure your pet gets all the attention and love they need! I May sure that each pet I watch is loved and taken care of and that they are treated like I would treat my own pet!

“I’m soo happy that I came across Cindy’s profile. Bane loves her to death already which is weird it takes time for him to warm up to people but not Cindy , she must be some sort of dog whisperer 😂 🐕 . Bane weighs 140lbs and I was at first worried because usually I let men walk him because of his size and power but Cindy had no issues whatsoever this lady knows what’s she’s doing . She is very knowledgeable too soo many things I learned about my own dog I’ve had for almost 6 years . I will most definitely be continuing services with Cindy ! She’s the one you want working your pup!”

About: I’ve been dog sitting for about 3 years, and I also worked at a doggy daycare for a year! During that time, I gained experience caring for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and personalities. Working at a daycare taught me how important patience and understanding are, especially when dogs miss their owners, feel anxious, or don’t want to eat. I know every dog is different, and I always take the time to understand their individual needs and make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I truly enjoy spending time with dogs, and I treat every pet as if they were my own! I’m currently a college student, so my schedule and availability change each semester depending on my classes. I also work part-time on weekends, but I have free time during the week that I would love to spend caring for dogs! While weekdays are generally easier for me, I’m also open to weekend pet sitting and would be happy to discuss availability in advance. I think pet sitting fits perfectly into my college routine because it allows me to do something I genuinely enjoy while balancing school and work. I love spending time with dogs, and I truly believe their companionship would brighten my day just as much as I hope to brighten theirs! Since I currently live in a college dorm, I only offer pet care in the owner’s home. I understand how important it is for dogs to feel safe and comfortable, especially when their owners are away. I believe keeping them in a familiar environment and maintaining their usual routine can make a big difference! I’m very respectful of each owner’s home and always make sure to follow any instructions regarding feeding, walks, playtime, and any special needs their dog may have. With my previous dog sitting and daycare experience, I know how to be patient with dogs of different personalities and help them feel comfortable and loved while their owners are away. My goal is to give owners peace of mind knowing their pets are in caring and responsible hands!

About: I have had animals my whole life. Couldn’t imagine life without them. I have had English Mastiff/Great Danes( not afraid of some drool) to Jack Russell’s. I currently do not have any employment. I’m extremely bored at home. I would like to get out of the house doing something I know I would love. My husband travels for work so we currently live in a large fifth wheel RV. We have one dog a 6yr old Great Dane. Also one calico cat about 8 months old .

About: I have always had dogs and cats and goats and occasionally I have owned cows so I’m a big animal lover who has plenty of land for them to run on and be free with it also being in a fence area. They will feel safe they will feel loved and you will get pictures of your little fur babies daily. I am a stay at home mom who has a two year-old little girl who does Therapy so I am always at home and I would love to be able to help someone when they are in need of having their fur babies at a safe house. Each pet that comes around has water, food and an air conditioner. The outside porch has air conditioner that they get underneath so they are in a safe environment. It’s fenced in and they have plenty of room to run.

About: I have grooming, training, & boarding experience. I’m experienced in administering medications; pills, eye drops, shots, etc. Animals are my peace so I’d love to give a peace of mind to others😊 I’m available full time, there are currently 6 dogs & 2 cats in my house & the pups get outside about 3-5 times a day depending on the weather. I also have a 3 year old whos with me 3 days out of the week. I have a fenced in yard, all of my pups & my sisters are crated when not supervised.

About: Animals are my world and I love them to pieces. I began pet sitting about 4 years ago and I am now in my 3rd year of doing this full-time. I understand that you are asking a complete stranger to stay in your home and care for you pets and I do not take that responsibility lightly. I will love your pet as my own. You can be sure that pictures will be provided to you daily along with updates. Before we confirm a booking we will set a time for me to come and meet you and your furbabies. I want to be sure we are all comfortable with each other first. The first meet and greet is free! Having a pet sitter in your home rather than boarding your pet, to me, is extremely important. I specialize in premium in-home care, allowing your pets to remain in the comfort and familiarity of their home. It is a valuable alternative to traditional boarding. While it is considered a luxury, it has great benefits. >Lower stress & anxiety: Pets stay in their familiar environment, following their normal routine. >Reduced health risks: No exposure to illnesses commonly associated with boarding >Reduced risk of unexpected vet bills: Many pets experience digestive or behavioral issues when boarded >Personalized one-on-one care: Your pets receive attention tailored to their needs >Home care benefits: Added security and presence in your home while you're away My goal is to provide a calm, safe, and personalized experience that supports both you and your pets' well-being and your peace of mind. I book extremely quickly and many of my clients book way in advance. But I am always looking to add more clients. I look forward to caring for your furbabies! I do pet sitting full time and can work remotely. So your pet(s) will receive much attention since I do not have regular work hours in which I would have to be gone all day. I am available to stay at your home during the time you are away. I am currently unable to house your pets in my own home, but am more than happy to stay at yours so they are in their comfort zone and familiar territory.
