About: **IMPORTANT DETAILS ABOUT PRICING AND SUCH AT BOTTOM OF PAGE** I've lived on a homestead my whole life. I have provided overnight and daytime care for family's, friends', and neighbors' pets. I have experience caring for dogs, cats, ferrets, rats, hamsters, hermit crabs, and many species of bird including chickens, geese, ducks, guinea fowl, and parakeets. I am a young adult freelancer, so my schedule is somewhat free for now. I will be available to take care of your pets mostly later in the day on weekdays and all day on most weekends. I will care for your pet and/or pets in whatever way we agreed to, whatever way you ask me to. I will make sure your pet stays healthy and happy while you are away.

About: I have taken care of dogs since I was 16. I also grew up with 4 medium sized dogs at a time. I have always had a love for animals and love to meet other fur babies. I have been able to follow feeding instructions and if needed have followed giving medications. Just a heads up I will not be accepting bookings from June on until I am sure where I will be after college. I’m currently a senior in college with only 2 classes and 2 labs, so I will have a lot of time to spend with your pups! I have a small, fenced yard and I have one yellow lab at home that is very dog friendly. I will follow up with you anytime I arrive at your house and will provide a recap of my time with your animal. I will follow all instructions given to me ahead of time to ensure you receive the best care for your furry friend. I will treat them as if they were my own and spend so much time ensuring they enjoy there time with me!

About: I have had a multitude of animals since I was young, which has led to many years of experience. I currently have a pet cat and dog. I’m a very active person and love going out in nature for walks and requests for longer walks beyond the 30 minute allotment are definitely welcome! I would love to build a strong relationship with the pets and owners I interact with to help build my experience even more and make your pets comfortable with a familiar face. I have a dog of my own that I walk and I’m a stay at home mom, which allows my schedule to be relatively open. In my clients home I will make sure the pet’s needs are met 100%. This includes making sure they have plenty of water, food and have had an adequate potty break. I will also play with the pet as long as their owner is okay with that.

“Kate really came through for us last minute. She was very thorough at introduction asking questions to make sure we were on the same page for the care of our pets. Her check-ins were detailed and included photos. We will book with Kate again ! Thank you so much Kate !”

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.

About: I have veterinarian assistant background, and can administer medications. I have been dog sitting for 9 years. I am active and will be engaging with your pets constantly. my schedule fits perfect for dog sitting and dog walking. I will take care of your pets as they are my own. I hope you’ll consider me for your pets needs. I am currently working part time and would love to use my extra time to take care of your pets needs. I have a very flexible schedule, and your pets needs come first. Giving your pets love, playtime, and exercise. If your pets have special needs to meet those needs for them. Cleaning up after your animals and always making sure their needs are taken care of.

About: I have had animals in my life since I was born. Currently have a horse, a pony, two goats, three cats, and two dogs living on my property/in my house. I love them all dearly. They are quite literally my children, so I understand the importance of high quality care for your pets. I work full-time from home and usually have lots of free time as my job isn’t incredibly demanding. I usually leave for a few hours in the evening after work to go ride my horse, but other than that I am quite open. I live on 4 1/2 acres. I have a very small fenced in backyard, but I usually walk my dogs 2-3x a day instead of just putting them out there. I do not live on a busy road.

“Maria was able to accommodate our last minute request to drop on our pup. She kept me updated along the way and was so helpful! Would definitely book again”

“Erik was great with our Kitty! He was very communicative, friendly and prompt to respond. He was even kind enough to water our plants for us! We’ll definitely hire Erik again :)”

“Could not have asked for a better sitter for my dog for a week. Taylor was thorough, on time, very communicative, and loving. She did way more than she was asked. Very happy with the Rover Service, and Taylor was a godsend. Highly recommend.”

About: Hey! I have been an animal lover since I was a kid. I have experience with dogs, cats, birds, reptiles, fish, rabbits, etc. I have volunteered with several pet rescues and I also foster dogs and cats sometimes. I have experience giving medications. I think what really sets me apart is how deeply I care for animals and how much safety and responsibility matter to me. I personally will only let one person watch my animals and that is because I’m super cautious with who watches my animals. I’m very careful about doors, gates, leashes, wildlife, etc and how to keep your pet safe and not get loose. If you are looking for someone who will treat your dog like their own and really prioritize their safety & comfort while you are away i’m your gal. I send cute photos, too! I also work as a mental health therapist and I’m home frequently doing video sessions so I’m around a lot. I also have experience in animal assisted therapy. My only request is that your animal is dog friendly especially since I have a little senior dog. I work from home most of the time so I’m around a lot. Because I do video sessions as a mental health therapist it is helpful if your animal doesn’t bark a ton for no reason. lol. In my home & yours I prioritize their comfort with feeding schedule, walks or hikes if desired, crate if preferred (sleeping, etc/safe space) , and safety.

I have been taking care of dogs and cats in-home and out of home for 8+ years and I am comfortable with almost all types of care. I am an avid nature lover, so I am always down to take your dog out for a run at the park , a swim at the beach, or even chill with them at home! I am a part time artist, musician and traveler, but I can be quite flexible with my doggy care schedule. Contact me with any questions you have or for details! Peace and love :)

About: Animals have always naturally gravitated toward me, and caring for them genuinely makes me happy. I’m the kind of person who notices when a pet wants comfort, quiet, playtime, or just someone calm to sit with them. I especially love creating a peaceful, loving environment where pets feel safe and cared for while their owners are away. I’m very respectful of people’s homes, clean, dependable, and communicative. I know how vulnerable it can feel leaving your pets with someone else, so I treat every animal with real patience, affection, and attention — not just as a job, but because I truly love being around them. I’m also available for overnight stays, house sitting, feeding, walks, companionship, bringing in mail, watering plants, and helping keep things running smoothly while you’re away. I have a flexible schedule right now, which allows me to give pets lots of attention, affection, and companionship throughout the day. Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and I truly love getting to know each pet’s unique personality and making them feel safe, happy, and cared for while their owners are away. I’m available for house sitting, drop-ins, walks, and overnight care most weekdays and weekends. I know how important it is to trust the person caring for your pets and being in your home, and I take that responsibility very seriously. I’m dependable, attentive, and genuinely loving with animals. I pay close attention to routines, feeding instructions, medications, and the little things that help pets feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. I’ll always treat your home with respect, keep things clean and tidy, and make sure you receive regular updates and photos so you can feel completely at ease.

“Dawn is such a good pet sitter. Our cats are normally very reclusive around new people, but took to her immediately. We couldn’t recommend her more and will absolutely use her in the future.”

About: I have had dogs and cats since I can remember. Currently, we have a Great Dane pup, and a Golden retriever. I understand how hard it is to find affordable, trustworthy care for your dogs, (my wife and I both work in education) I am a dependable person, always willing go text or call, send updates, and go the extra mile. Currently, I'm on summer break from school, so this summer I have flexibility. When school Starts, I have mornings and afternoon/evenings to check in on the animals. At my home, my dogs eat three times a day, they are very spoiled with walks, playing outside with my children or each other. When it comes to a client, I'm very dependable, as a veteran, the military is still instilled in my brain, so schedule, communication, and on time are very essential!

About: I've grown up around big dogs my whole life and love all pets more than anything. I believe every pet should feel loved and happy with the humans they around no matter how old, or young, they may be. With a very open schedule, I am happy to commit however long or short needed for your special companion! I am looking to find many jobs throughout my last semester at UNCA. I plan to schedule my days around walks or sittings I may have booked since I only have a few classes. I miss being around my dogs at home so helping care for your pets brings me joy! I respect the client and pets' space- no questions asked. Never hesitate to give me lists and lists of expectations, or just tell me to have fun! Whatever you need done will be accomplished!

About: I grew up on a farm with dogs, cats, goats, chickens, ducks, mini horses, and loads of other animals so I am experienced in animal care! I currently have dogs and cats! I want to help other animal owners because I know how helpful pet sitting is for me! I am currently unemployed looking for animal care jobs throughout the week and weekend. I am very flexible. I’m working on getting my associates degree and I have classes Tuesday/Thursday. I know how much my pets mean to me and I want to maintain a safe and friendly environment for all the pets I will be caring for. I am a very clear communicator and I work best knowing what each individual pet needs!
