About: Myself and two kids are ready to take care of your fur-babies! We frequently have our neighbors dog visit and would be happy to add more. We have a 3 year old cava-poo at all times and a fenced yard with plenty of room. All pets must be kid and dog friendly. I work at home full time and am able to keep an eye on your pup regularly. Weekends I run out for errands but am mostly around. I have a fenced in yard, with a single family home in the Ballantyne area and an extra crate for smaller dogs if needed.

About: Hi! I’m Katherine, and I am here to take care of your furry family members with love and care. Fur mama, animal lover, and dedicated high school teacher—nurturing hearts both human and furry, one lesson at a time! I teach High School Engineering and Game Design at Myers Park High School. My passion for teaching is equal to my passion for animals. I take pride in taking exceptional care of your fur babies that we like to call our guests. I have been a dog and cat owner my entire life. There was never a time when we did not have a cat or dog—or a combination of both! I currently have a little 14-year-old Papillon. I have experience with both senior cats and dogs, and I’m comfortable administering all types of medications. Included in my services: I offer drop-ins, doggy daycare, and in-home boarding for small breed dogs, providing a warm and safe environment for them to stay overnight. Your pet will enjoy our fully fenced backyard, belly rubs, plenty of lap time and bedtime stories! Please note that I typically book out about a month in advance, as I’m fortunate to be an in-demand sitter. Because of this, I recommend accepting or confirming bookings quickly to secure your spot—availability can fill up fast! Last-minute and emergency bookings are welcome, as long as space is available. All guests must be dog-friendly because I have a small Papillon who is full of fluff and love and a 4 year old daughter who is very good with animals. She has been around them since the day she was born. Your fur baby will never be unsupervised—someone is always home. Please let me know if your pet has any special needs so I can provide the best possible care. Boarding Breed Restrictions: For the safety and comfort of all pets in my care, I do not accept certain strong or high-energy breeds, including Pit Bulls, Dobermans, Boxers, Mastiffs, and similar large breeds. Thank you for your understanding and support of a safe, happy space for everyone. I’d love to learn more about your furry family member and how I can help make their stay feel like a home away from home! I’m a full time teacher during the school year and off during the summer time, holidays and occasional special teacher service days. I love to keep busy. Being your substitute fur mama allows flexibility and helps support my family during the summer months. When I care for pets in my home I treat them as they are my own. I have an enclosed backyard. We would spend time outside playing in the backyard, going for walks around the neighborhood (dogs only), spend time cuddling, etc. they would be provided meals according to the schedule you have set for them. They would have a specific place designated for their food and water. Fluffy bedding accommodations would be provided unless they you have one to provide they prefer.

About: Compassionate pet owner with 8 years of experience providing reliable and attentive dog walking, exercise, and care services. Make sure pups are happy through regular exercise, play, and snuggles. I maintain strong communication with pet owners, providing updates and pics, and handling any special care requirements. Committed to fostering a safe, happy home for dogs while promoting healthy routines and a positive experience for both pets and their owners. I am a stay at home mom who has a 4 year old son who also loves pets. We stay very close to the Ballantyne area throughout the day. Fur must be friendly with kids and cats. I have one of each :) I have a fenced in yard for babies to play in and a very walkable neighborhood for them to exercise. I regularly walk my own little angel and she would love a friend!

“Jinetta was great! She sent frequent updates and pictures and was quick to respond to messages. She also followed the instructions for my anxious dog very well. I felt comfortable leaving my dog Murphy with her even though he can be a handful at times. Jinetta is kind with a great heart and you won’t regret trusting her!”


About: I grew up on a farm around animals, including three dogs and a cat. I have always had a love for all dogs and want to pat every one I see! We have had our own beautiful pup for 4 yrs now and he loves to play with other dogs. He is calm, sweet and friendly. We can’t wait to love and look after your fur baby like our own so you can have peace leaving them. I work from home so my schedule is very flexible and gives me more time to provide attention to your fur baby. For drop ins we have the ability to be flexible with time and for in boarding it means your dog will have people around a majority of the time. We allow pets to go where they feel comfortable whether it be the sofa, upstairs or to sleep in a bedroom. I will follow whatever feeding schedule you prefer and your preferences on where you would prefer they sleep. We have a fully fenced, large backyard for them to run, play and explore.

About: I’m a lifelong dog lover, a responsible and caring sitter, and the proud dog mom to a sweet 10-year-old pup who absolutely loves making new furry friends, I treat every dog like they’re my own. Whether it’s belly rubs, long walks, or just some cozy company on the couch, I make sure your pup feels safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. I also have a fully fenced yard — perfect for safe playtime and zoomies galore! As a teacher, I’m home full-time during the summer, which means your pup will get tons of attention, snuggles, and play throughout the day. Whether your dog is energetic and loves to explore or prefers a laid-back lounging buddy, I’m happy to match their vibe. I offer: 🐾 Reliable, attentive care 🐾 Regular photo updates (because you need to see that cute face!) 🐾 A calm, dog-friendly home, with a pup who loves company 🐾 Experience with dogs of all sizes, ages, and energy levels 🐾 Flexible scheduling during summer months Your peace of mind matters. I know how important it is to leave your dog with someone who truly cares and to feel confident when leaving your pet in someone else’s hands. Let’s schedule a meet & greet — I’d love to meet you and your doggo!

About: Having grown up with dogs my whole life, I’m extremely comfortable with all dog breeds and needs. I have a large, fenced in backyard that my own high energy dog, Finn, loves to run around in. He’s always looking for friends to play with so if you have a dog that loves to get in the mix, my home is a great fit. I work from home but would prefer for first time visits to be over the weekend in order to get acquainted with your pup. After a relationship has been established I would be very willing to watch during the work week. Your dog will be in very good hands and will return home very tired after spending a day or two with Finn. Your dog will get plenty of attention during the day. I take my own dog out in the backyard for play breaks every couple hours or so. We usually go on one long walk after I log off between 5-6pm. I live in a very safe neighborhood for walks. My home is kept clean but would prefer for dogs to be crated at night to prevent any issues.

“Thanks Arantxa for taking care of Rajah so well. He seems to have really enjoyed his day. Thanks for sending the pics and videos throughout the day. We will be back soon.”
