“As always, great experience with Beth. She is prompt to respond and takes the time to play with Rupert (not always easy! Lol!) which we greatly appreciate. Leaving your pets with someone can be so nerve-wracking. I'm so happy to have found Beth as she truly sets my mind at ease!!”
“Our cat sitter Danielle was extremely professional, showed genuine care for our cat, and kept us consistently updated throughout the entire stay. We felt completely at ease knowing our cat was in such attentive and reliable hands. We would highly recommend her services and book them again!”
“Steve is wonderful!! He really went above and beyond for us. He was attentive and caring with my animals, on time, thorough and communicative. I felt so much peace of mind knowing that he was taking care of them. I will absolutely book him any time I need help with my pets. I can’t recommend him enough!!! Thank you Steve!”
“Tiffany was awesome!!! This is the first time leaving my cat for more than a night and I was so worried how he would do. Tiffany sent me photos everyday and let me know how he was doing. She asked about things she noticed might be a concern (which happened to be normal for my cat which is an older rescue), and was so thorough and thoughtful I didn’t have to worry about a thing! I would highly recommend Tiffany and I hope she’s available to take care of my cat again in the future. Thank you so much!”
“This was the first time I was leaving my cat for an extended period of time and AK kept him well cared for. She also sent me lots of pictures so that I didn’t miss him too much which was very much appreciated. I’d definitely book her again!”
“This was the second time that Swagata took care of Jojo. She's truly amazing with Cats!! She came for drop-in visit, she followed all the instructions and also spent some playtime with Jojo... I was so glad that she did... I will 100% recommend her if you're looking for a caring pet sitter...”
“Sydney took great care of my cat. She sent regular photo updates. She gave Pip plenty of attention during visits and Pip even posed with her for a selfie. Pip never does selfies. When I got home, my cat was happy and calm. I will absolutely hire Sydney again.”
About: I have had pets since I was 1 years old - whatever my parents let me get away with (dog, cats, fish, hamsters, gerbils, guinea pigs). As an adult I continue to own cats and dogs and currently own 2 cats. I will treat your pet as a member of my family while in my care. I nursed my cat to health from losing a kidney and he lived till he was 17yo. I nursed my geriatric dog with eye disease, arthritis until he was 14.5yo. I am more experienced with adult and geriatric pets than babies but welcome all. I am currently unemployed and seeking supplemental income. I'm also healing from CIRS/Lyme and need a walking partner to improve my health! My schedule is flexible although I do often have evening commitments with my son and his activities. My yard is large and fenced in. I live next to several walking trails and have a quiet neighborhood. I live close to a dog park and dog beach. I am familiar with crate training and administering medications.
“Diana was awesome dropping in on our 2 cats. Responded quickly when we needed last minute help before going on vacation and was very patient working through some initial trouble getting in the over the phone.”
About: I’ve had dogs my whole life. I have experience with both puppies and older dogs. I love animals and have many years experience caring for them. I currently run a mobile chiropractic business but I am available most week days both morning and afternoon. I have a flexible schedule overall Monday- Thursdays. I’m not offering boarding services or doggy daycare right now due to living in an apartment. I apologize for the inconvenience. I do offer drop ins and dog walking however!
“Responsive. Personable. Conscientious. Easy to communicate with. Responsible. Caring. A true pet lover. It's such a pleasure to come home to happy cats! Thank you, Caroline!”
“Elizabeth was absolutely incredible! Amazing communication and sent me so many photos which made me very happy while I was away! My pet loved her so much I don’t even think she missed me! Definitely will be asking her again and highly recommend!!”
About: I am a grad student looking to give some love to my local pets. I have experience with dogs and cats of all ages and sizes. In college I was my neighbors’ go to pet sitter/walker and hoping to continue while in grad school. Feel free to message me with any questions! I am currently in my second year in med school and I will be occupied weekdays depending on lecture times and exams but I can work with you to help out in any way I can. I have a furry son myself and he is a loving 5 year old red lab so the same love and care that I would want my pet to receive is what I will give to yours. I will respect your rules with your pets (schedules, no furniture, etc.) and promise to give them all the love and attention they deserve.
“Tara did an amazing job with drop in visits to our two cats when we were away! The cats seemed to be very happy and well taken care of! I will definitely ask Tara again to look after them when I am traveling!”
“Leah was fantastic! She kept our cats very well cared for while we were away. She gave great updates every day and we could see how our very shy cats warmed up to her in each one!”
About: I grew up with pets and have years of experience caring for animals, including feeding, administering medication, and keeping their spaces clean and comfortable. I’m attentive to each pet’s unique needs, from walks and playtime to maintaining their daily routines. Since I can’t have pets of my own right now, I truly enjoy caring for others’ and making sure they feel loved and well cared for. I’m currently a student at Wake Forest, so outside of my class schedule, I’m pretty flexible and able to adjust my routine to meet your pet care needs. I am not available 12-3pm M-Th or T/Th 9:30-11am. In clients’ homes, I focus on making pets feel comfortable and well cared for by following their usual routines. This includes feeding, administering medication if needed, cleaning up after the pets, and providing plenty of attention, playtime, or walks. My goal is to ensure pets feel happy and secure while their owners are away.
“Victoria was great with all 3 of my dogs. It tends to be a circus wrangling all 3, but she did an awesome job. Victoria is attentive to detail and great at communicating. We will definitely be booking with her again!”

Sydney took great care of my cat. She sent regular photo updates. She gave Pip plenty of attention during visits and Pip even posed with her for a selfie. Pip never does selfies. When I got home, my cat was happy and calm. I will absolutely hire Sydney again.
Tiffany was amazing! She is an excellent communicator and very patient with elderly animals. I was so nervous about leaving my 16 year old cat, with stage 2 kidney disease, home alone with all the meds he takes and his ability to be stubborn about taking them. Tiffany worked so well with him and I felt at ease and able to relax and enjoy my time away. My two 2-year old girls also loved her. I HIGHLY recommend Tiffany and will use her for all my future pet sitting needs!
