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 of 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: 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: This isn’t just a job for me—it’s something I truly enjoy. I find joy in every walk, cuddle, and tail wag, and that passion shows in the way I care for each dog. I’m currently a college student who enjoys pet care is part of my everyday routine. I make time for walks, feeding, and play to keep pets happy and comfortable. - Caring for pets in clients home, I will follow the pet’s normal routine with feeding, walks, play, and potty breaks to keep them comfortable in their own space. - Caring for pets in my home, I will provide a safe, pet-friendly environment with plenty of playtime, walks, and attention. - Caring for pets during drop in visit, I will make sure they feel safe and trusted by me :) but I’ll also make sure to provide fresh food and water, clean up when needed, and spend quality time playing or giving them attention so they don’t feel alone.
“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 Destiny and I am a lover of pet's in all breeds and sizes! 🐾 Over the last 10 years I have pet-sat and walked pets for family, friends, and veterinary clients while also caring for my own fur babies. I have experience with a large variety of different animals - Both breed and species wise. A lot of my experience comes from shelter work, hands on programs through school, and work in local general practice and emergency animal hospitals. I do have current employment at a local emergency veterinary hospital as a registered veterinary technician. Even with all of the amazing fur babies I get to work with on a regular basis - I'd still love to continue working with fur babies outside of the practice! One of the hardest parts of the job is definitely seeing boarding pets miss their homes/people. My biggest goal is to help you create a safe, and comfortable space for your family member(s) to enjoy while you're away. 🙂 I typically spend 2-3 days out of the week at work. Tuesdays through Thursdays are the days I primarily dedicate for pet care services. The other days of the week I am still available for day boarding within my home but I do have my children on these days and so pets boarding Friday through Mondays must be kid-friendly. I treat every pet I watch like they’re my own! At home, I provide a cozy, supervised environment where they can relax, play, and feel comfortable. In a client’s home, I make sure to stick to their routine and keep things tidy and stress-free. I send regular updates with photos or videos so you can see how happy and well-cared-for your pet is while you’re away.
About: I’ve had a variety of animals in my home and loved them all my life! I love serving animals and providing them with the upmost respect and care. I’m a veterinary assistant so I have vast knowledge about cat & dogs medical needs. I can confidently administer medications, including insulin. I can provide care almost anytime on Mondays and Friday’s. I work Tuesday-Thursday 10 hour shifts but could potentially provide care after work at 6pm. Reach out about weekend availability. I have two very sweet cats at home that do well with other dogs. I have a “fear free” approach to care provided in your home, including animal pheromone therapy, patience/gradient touch, food motivation, respect of boundaries and positive vibes.
