About: There’s no pet too big, small, hairy, or scaly!! I grew up taking care of dogs of all sizes; from chihuahuas to great danes! I have a huge passion for animals for any kind! I also worked at a doggy daycare/ boarding facility in Charlotte, where I watched dogs & even gave them baths! If it’s a pet, it’s a friend of mine! I will have plenty of time through the week, and on weekends to take care of your pets!! I love getting my steps in, so your dogs will have a blast with me!! I have a lot of availability to swing by and help you out!! I prioritize safety by closely following each pet’s routine and using secure leashes or carriers on walks. I build trust by respecting clients’ homes, sending regular updates, and showing consistent, gentle care. I’m comfortable using crates when needed, ensuring pets feel safe and secure in their environment! I’ll be sure to send you lots of pics, of your sweet pets!

About: I have been a pet owner all my life and I treat every furbaby like they are my own. I enjoy animals and I think they make a household so much better.

I work during the week but I am off during the weekends but I am more than willing to open my home to anyone who needs care. I feed all dogs in their crate or across a baby fence to keep everyone out of trouble and to prevent accidents. Unless I’m familiar with the dogs, I do allow out of crate sleeping but for most I stick with crate sleeping. My schedule is set the same every week. I do work full-time at my job (Monday to Friday) but I am off every weekend. . I treat every animal that walks through my door like family. If I’m watching multiple dogs everyone eats in their crate or across the baby gate.
“Richard was very prompt to respond to my request. Prompt to arrive, courteous in all communications and went above and beyond. I’ll DEFINITELY be utilizing his services again. Thanks Richard!”
About: Hi! I'm Kristin. Pictured is my husband Andrew, our Rainbow Bridge Pup Willow, our Irish Setter, Griffin, and our Llewellin Setter, Phineas. I'm a native North Carolinian - born and raised in Mooresville. About a decade or so ago, I began working for a veterinary office part-time in their kennel. Man! I had no clue what I was signing up for but it was something I had never tried before so I thought why not? I quickly found that I loved it and it definitely took a special type of person to do the job. I moved up to become a technician and receptionist and began working in veterinary full time. The day came when a client, the owner of my favorite boarding patient Macy, asked if I knew of anyone who would come to their home to watch Macy because, despite her always happy demeanor, she would have terrible waves of anxiety when she would board. I volunteered and the rest was history! Nothing is more rewarding than walking through the door and seeing a pet's eyes light up and their entire body wiggle with happiness when they see you! I work from home so my schedule is extremely flexible. I am able to pack up my desk and work from most anywhere. Whatever your pet's needs are, I am able to accommodate them. I always like to do a perimeter check to ensure all gates are closed and there are no easy access points for your pet to escape. I also will sit outside with your pet and provide constant supervision. Inside your home, I am very vigilant about keeping all access points locked, keeping doors shut inside to minimize pets getting into things they shouldn’t, etc.
About: my sisters and I had shiloh (our yorkie) since I was around 8/9 years old & I had been taking care of him in and out for the past 12 years! in between living with him, i’ve had 5 cats - yes, all at once 🫠. I am free for the summertime and available all hours of the day!! I am flexible to work with you & your pets needs! I will be starting classes in October but they’re through zoom and i will have breaks in between. the street I live on is pretty private and great for walks, so we can take plenty of long ones! I have a small but useful backyard area for quick potty breaks. There are no animals in our home- only my 7 year old niece & she is the sweetest!

“Angie is the most loving and energetic person I know. She loves animals if not more than people. While working alongside her, she always went the extra mile help them, however she could and I know she would go above and beyond in this job.
