Allana did great with my puppy! She was super flexible with what we needed and made sure to be attentive with my puppy both inside the house and when she took him on walks. He was comfortable enough to eat, sleep, and play with her! We came back to a puppy who was out for the rest of the night! It can be really hard to leave your puppy with someone, especially in your own home, (my puppy is only 4 months) but allana did a great job and I’d hire her again.

Chloe did a great job watching my dog. He was fine at first but later got a little defensive and uneasy. She handled it really well, figured out how to work with him, and kept him comfortable. I really appreciated the frequent photo updates and check-ins they gave me peace of mind while I was away. I’d definitely recommend her to anyone looking for a patient and reliable sitter

Jacob was amazing!! Very flexible when it came to our pups and us, having to leave our airbnb to head to a hotel and watch our babies in the new place. If I could give him more than five stars on here I would! Our puppies loved him! Absolutely would ask him to watch them again if we are ever in town!

Kenzie took good care of my dog and cat while I was out of town on a trip. There were a lot of trip ups - my dog got hospitalized before our trip and I had an awful flight delay at the end of the trip. Kenzie came back out to take care of my two when I wasn’t going to make it back for a while. I appreciated everything she did to help me!

About: I volunteer regularly at a local animal shelter and have fostered many pets through NC Seaside Animal Rescue. My dream is to turn my passion for pet sitting into a full time career because nothing brings me more joy than caring for animals. As a local elementary school educator, I’m a trusted and responsible caregiver. When I’m not caring for pets or teaching, you’ll often find me exploring local parks or volunteering at the shelter. I will send regulate pictures and text updates and I can’t wait to meet you and your furry family members! My schedule will be fully open for the next few months. All of my services will be avaliable morning, afternoon and night time. (Depending on what is needed)! When caring for pets in your home, I focus on maintaining their usual routine to keep them comfortable and happy. I follow your instructions carefully—feeding schedules, exercise, medication, and any special needs—while giving lots of love, attention, and playtime. I also keep your home safe and secure, and I provide regular updates with photos so you can relax knowing your pet is well cared for. If boarding your pet at my home, I create a calm and welcoming environment tailored to each pet’s personality. Since I don’t have pets of my own, your pet will have all the attention and space they need. I make sure they get plenty of exercise, mental stimulation, and affection, and I keep a close eye on their health and wellbeing throughout their stay. Whether in your home or mine, my priority is making sure your pet feels safe, loved, and cared for as if they were my own.

RyAnn is so wonderful with my animals. She watched them with love and care. She goes above and beyond for them. My 13 year old golden retriever is afraid of fireworks and RyAnn stayed by his side through the whole night comforting him. She wound up falling asleep comforting him. She is amazing. I would recommend and next vacation I take I will be booking her again.

Alexis was great! We have only left our girl with family in the past, so we were nervous to leave her with a new person at first, but Alexis made us feel comfortable that Millie was going to be spoiled while we were away (and she definitely was!). Thanks Alexis for making us feel at ease, we didn't have a single worry about her while we were gone. ❤️
